2010s (APPROX.)

Not my story, in fact this is a third-hand encounter, but a friend of a friend swore they saw a lynx-like creature walking the moors/ forests around ‘The plague village’. It was at night I think, but he heard something light-footed stalking him, said it had a feline appearance but was bigger than a normal cat and specifically it had black tips of fur on top of its ears. Maybe it was just a big Maine Coon roaming the forests of Derbyshire? The person who experienced this admitted they’d had a bit of alcohol that evening. Normally I wouldn’t submit this as it’s not very weird, but given the morbid history of the village of Eyam I thought I’d send it anyway.
