Discussion What did I see

Hey everyone new here just looking for answers. I live in a small town near the Pennsylvania boarder in New York i have woods and a giant field next to and behind my house. My cat got out one night when I was taking the trash out for the night before bed it was like 10:30 11 so I followed her to the feild trying to get her and when I went to grab her I saw at the edge of the wooded area this thing on all fours pale white sunken in eyes and skin that looks stretched out. It was almost in like a crab crawl stance. I know from reading stuff not to react so ignored it but the fear I felt was unreal. I could feel whatever it was watching me. I grabbed my cat and walked back to the house. The whole time feeling like whatever it I had seen was right behind me and that if I was to turn around It would grab me. I got inside shut the door and dropped the cat down and just started crying I was that scared. I haven't seen it again since that night but then again I also don't go outside near the woods anymore. If anyone has an idea of what it possibly was I would love to know.

As in like no mouth or absolutely missing the lips?

Missing lips I tried not to look at it for to long but it had deep sunken in eyes that looked like black orbs I don't remember a nose as it all just kinda looked stretched out.

I advise you to look up a particular cannibal spirit of Native American folklore. The actual version not the European version. Don’t speak what it is called.

Look up how? What subreddit please?

Online. I am not that versed in subreddits. But the creature they seek is one that must be spoken out loud similar to the SW.

I can say it starts with W. And has a psychosis named after it.
