Do witches go out into the remote wilderness and pick up 19 year old men and carry them over 20 foot snow banks, leaving them several miles away, with their blue jeans still tucked into their boots, but only a lower leg bone on one side still in the clothes? With the skull cap a few meters way, a few fine bones scattered around, but otherwise no sign of the man?

Ostman's experience is the closest to what is described. Many witnesses have reported being confronted by very aggressive forest people. They are the ones who were armed or who had a mate along. So they were attacked but not taken, or were not attacked. The lone person in the wilderness stands little chance. If that person is unarmed he/she stand very little to no chance, if events play out in the wrong way.
