I had a similar thing happen to me last season. I crawled up into my stand while it was still dark. I got about eye level with my seat and realized I was face to face with a big coon. That thing hissed and scared the life right out of me. I still don't know how I didn't fall. I shine my light up at my stand everytime I climb up now.
I new a guy who had a hole In the tree right behind his seat. So he sits down and he gets up and looks In it THERE'S A SNAKE IN THE HOLE!
