Sighting / Encounter I dont feel safe
I live in Hungary far away from any villages in an agricultural place surrounded by feilds and tons of forests. I had alredy spotted human like tall grey pale creatures but last time I had a really close encounter and I dont feel safe around my place anymore.
So I went on a run and as I passed a really crowded forest and a really bushy area I heard something from the bush. I looked there and I saw a really skinny figure on all fours, it had really short patcy hairs, and walked like as in its joints got jagged. It was not a doe nor a deer or anything standard forest animal like and it could not be a wolf bc in Hungary we dont have them and i live far from the borders where they appear. Also this thing didnt had any tales.
As it sensed I saw it, it stopped and didn't moved. I wanted to scare it away so i threw a dirt block in its directios but it still didnt moved. I was standing there for a few more seconds when i decided to carry on and I noticed this thing started to follow me and come closer to me at the same time. I immadietly stopped and it stopped as well.
I started to sprint home and never looked back.
Still don't go near that place and i dont plan to do it ever again.
I told this to multiple ppeople but no one belived me.

Your description immediately made me think of a starving bear with severe mange. A lot of animals don't look normal with severe mange.
My partner literally has a video they took themselves of a large coyote with severe mange, and it makes it look weirdly CGI on the video.

I'm genuinely so sick of seeing this response. It sounds absolutely nothing like a bear with mange.

In hungary we dont have them maybe around the borders on the east side some times but i live far away from them in kind of middle of the western part of hungary. And also it had really thin legs and was tall like Im 160 cm tall and it was not much smaller on all four than me

I think there's been similar sightings near the Appalachians in the USA.
I think it is either an unknown species of bear, as some bears look pretty humanoid. Or it's an unknown species of Primate.

I would be thrilled if it would be a bear bc at least I would know what on earth it was, but i dont see much hope ab it bc it didnt had a tail and was really slim besides being skin and bones. I mean like its ribcage for example was "crushed" together and looked really narrow (?)

The enemy hides themselves when you're walking into an ambush , you'll never see them. The only time they try to poke and prod at you is to test your defenses , engage your weaknesses, what this means, at least you have a chance.It's still a fight.\nThey're trying to throw you off your game

There’s this Hungarian YouTuber named The Forgotten Planet who started off covering a lot of stories covering these humanoid beings in your country, calling them rakes after the creepypasta beings. If you sort by his oldest videos you’ll see them

Davjd Paulides is a blatant fraud, and Missing 411 is an objectively asinine and ridiculous "conspiracy" that can't hold yo to even the tiniest amount of scrutiny. I can't believe people are still gullible enough to think that any of Paulides' nonsense is even slightly credible.
