When Ralph, Roger and Jack climb the mountain they see the dead body of the pilot. The parachute lines have become tangled in the rocks making the body move when the wind blows. This creates the illusion that the movements are being made by something which is alive. In the darkness the boys assume that the indirect shape which they see moving must be "the beast." Sam and Eric also came to the same conclusion when they earlier saw the dead pilot's body.
