Hmmmmmm.
The dog did not bark while running out there initially.
Which, my big dog would act the same if he knew the presence. My small dog (old, hard of hearing) would run out there barking no matter what.
When she was filming in the house, was it with a camera that other people can also see what she is filming? Because several voices (people) exclaimed the same time that she did.
Now, I was also expecting to see something, so yes, I also saw the “movement” (as if hiding) outside.
So, my next question would be, if this is not a hoax, is this a “regular visitor”?
😊
(I can imagine that some people DO leave food out; out in the woods; especially in the winter months. Of course leaving food out let’s any “dumb animal” realize the source of the food, and is now regularly discouraged. So, leaving food out for something that won’t ever bother you in your home?)
Weird.

(Redundant) This is the one I showed my kids.
A clip of it anyway. The guy “debunking” doesn’t mention SIZE. But keeps mentioning distance. 😲😊

Wtf? The woman stands outside in the snow for five minutes filming nothing then right when it walks out in the open she stops filming?? What the heck? Why can't anybody just get a clear closeup picture of one of those silly things instead of a long distance blurry shadow in the shadows? By golly of I ever see a Bigfoot in gonna get a closeup picture even if I have to get eaten up by it!

The video Plutronus posted gets my attention because the dog was so scared of it. I wouldn't be walking in those woods alone. It definitely was not a bear IMO

miami.cbslocal.com/2018/05/04/new-jersey-bigfoot-sighting/ Bigfoot In New Jersey? Couple Joins Dozens To Report Seeing CreatureMay 4, 2018 PINE BARRENS, NJ (CBS Local) – A couple in New Jersey have become the latest to say they’ve seen the mythical creature known as Bigfoot. While New Jersey may not sound like a place you’d expect to spot a Sasquatch, the Garden State has reportedly become a hot spot for Bigfoot sightings. A couple in the Pine Barrens claims to have spotted the tall, ape-like creature while driving past a heavily wooded area. The woman, who said her name was Tricia, claims the massive creature ran onto the road before disappearing into the forest on April 7. “I am driving and in a split second I saw something brown on 2 legs and about 6 feet tall sprint behind the car in the area we were just in,” Tricia wrote on the Bigfoot sightings website BFRO. According to the Asbury Park Press, Tricia and her husband are the latest in what have been nearly 70 sightings of Bigfoot across New Jersey since 1966. Ocean County, where Tricia allegedly spotted the creature, has had eight Sasquatch sightings reported to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization. Sussex County in the northern most part of the Garden State has had 17 sightings over the years. Many people are still skeptical that Bigfoot exists in the woods across America. A woman’s lawsuit against the state of California was recently dismissed after the Bigfoot enthusiast demanded that state wildlife officials recognize the Sasquatch as a real species. www.ocregister.com/2018/03/20/california-womans-bigfoot-is-real-lawsuit-has-been-dismissed-for-now/ WATCH VIDEO: miami.cbslocal.com/2018/05/04/new-jersey-bigfoot-sighting/

mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/06/mysterious-encounters-with-bigfoot-at-military-bases/ Mysterious Encounters with Bigfoot at Military Basesby Brent Swancer / mysteriousuniverse.org/author/brentswancer/June 26, 2018 The Bigfoot phenomenon has grown to be quite a bizarre feature of the world of the weird. These massive hairy creatures have been spotted all over the world, in places where they should have no business being such as England, and in literally every U.S. state, including yes, even Hawaii. These beasts are sighted in both remote areas and even in relatively urban locales, and it has all proven to be quite a mystery as to just what is going on here. Among the various other unlikely places one would expect to find a Bigfoot is on military bases, yet there have been a surprisingly large number of reports from such locales, and here are a few. Several encounters with large hairy hominids roaming about military installations come to us from the 1970s, with one notable and very dramatic one occurring at the Fort Lewis U.S. Army Military Installation in the state of Washington, which lies sprawled out right against a rather untamed wilderness area. In 1978 a very strange sighting was made on the base grounds by a soldier named Edwin Godoy, who at the time was on his way back from training exercises one evening along with some platoon mates. The truck allegedly suddenly and without warning sputtered to a halt at around 8 PM and could not be restarted, prompting the others to venture back to base on foot. Since Godoy had been the one to sign out the truck that day he stayed behind alone to keep an eye on the vehicle until it could be towed away in the morning. Fort Lewis U.S. Army Military InstallationAs he sat there by himself in the dark surrounded by the spooky sounds of the nighttime forest, a little after midnight Godoy’s attention was allegedly drawn to a massive figure skulking about and looming near a stand of trees around 300 meters away. As he stared he could make out that whatever it was was very tall and broad, and covered with what looked like hair all over its body, and rather eerily possessing eyes that seemed to glint or glow. The figure was described as “swinging his body sideways” and staring directly at the lone, frightened witness. Things got rather harrowing when this hulking brute purportedly began to break out into a run directly towards Godoy, who would describe the following dramatic events thus: That thing started running towards me, so I shouted a halt three times, asking that thing to stop and identify itself. As it wouldn’t reply I made a first shot to the air and then I shot at him or ‘it’, I don’t know how to call it. The hairy thing grabbed its chest and emitted a loud moan, stopped and then ran to his right, disappearing into the forest.Godoy was left there shaking and terrified, yet out there alone in the night surrounded by darkened trees and with no way out of there except on foot. He decided to lock himself in his truck, although he was also well aware that this would be little protection from the enormous hairy beast, which was probably none too happy about having been shot. There would be no sleep for him that night, and when the tow truck arrived at 6 AM in the morning he was still there wide eyed and clutching his weapon close. When Godoy told the tow truck mechanics what had transpired the previous evening, they skeptically went out to where the thing had been standing and much to their surprise found very large footprints pressed into the ground by something massive and heavy. Even more surprising was blood found on the ground, which was assumed to have been that of the wounded monster. This is where the whole story gets even more bizarre. According to Godoy, the mechanics made a secretive radio call and not long after a group of men in what appeared to be lab coats and thick rubber gloves descended upon the area taking samples of the blood and making casts of the footprints. The whole time Godoy claims that he was not allowed to speak to anyone at all, and that he was kept to the side away from what was going on. The perplexed Godoy was then whisked away to the base hospital, but rather than be looked at by the usual medical staff he was examined by a doctor who was from the Air Force, which was odd considering it was an Army installation. This doctor was apparently ranked as a full Colonel, and rather than disbelieving Godoy seemed very interested in every last detail of the encounter. This mysterious doctor was particularly concerned with any anomalous physical symptoms that Godoy may have been experiencing, such as headaches, dizziness, or a tingling sensation, of which the witness had none. Godoy was then thoroughly examined and had blood, skin, and urine samples carefully collected, after which he was told to return to his barracks and told in no uncertain terms to never mention a word of what had happened to him. This all gets even more far-out still, when Godoy was apparently later approached by a hospital worker by the name of L. Robles, who seemed to come to him secretly and allegedly said: I, together with two other guys, had to analyze the blood samples taken from the ground, and we now you are the soldier involved because it was stated as such in the report…” And you know? It’s crazy, but… what the hell was it you shot out there? When we examined the blood samples we found out three weird things in it… That blood contained human blood cells, animal blood cells…and chlorophyll. Man, that’s incredible! What the hell was it?Godoy stayed true to his orders not to tell anyone, and declined to explain anything to Robles. The whole thing would have likely been forgotten and swept under the carpet forever if it were not for a chance meeting with Godoy made by a paranormal researcher from Puerto Rico named Jorge Martín many years later, as the witness was vacationing in Cabo Rojo with his wife. It was here that Godoy would relate the whole outlandish tale to Martín and the story would finally come out. Also from the 1970s there was a strange account related by Bigfoot researcher Doug Trapp at the Sasquatch Chronicles blog. Through interviews with various military personnel at California’s Edward’s Air Force Base, who spoke under condition of anonymity, Trapp has been able to piece together a very bizarre story of desert Bigfoot haunting the locale for years. One of the men interviewed was a a Lieutenant in charge of security in the sector of Edward’s AFB near Rogers Dry Lake, who was at the base from 1972 to 1975. This unnamed Lieutenant informed Trapp that the base’s security force spent a lot of time using armed sentries, motion sensing equipment, and starlight scopes on the lookout for trespassers wandering into the area, especially curiosity seekers who were interested in all of the UFO conspiracies that have orbited Edwards Air Force Base for years. One evening the witness claimed that there was a perimeter breach, and the guard who had detected it cryptically described the intruder as being “a very tall man, but not really a man.” When the Lieutenant went out to talk to the guard he too saw the thing, whatever it was. Trapp would write of the scene unfolding: Through the starlight scope he could clearly see that this was not a man. It was a very tall, hair-covered, ape-like man walking through the desert. He said the animal appeared to be looking at the desert floor in search of something. The animal was about 500 yards distant, but the scope was very powerful and tripod mounted so it could be observed clearly. Both men continued to observe the animal as it wandered around almost aimlessly. He then reported to his superiors of the activity and was told to keep the animal in sight. This was no problem as the animal remained in the area. About five minutes later a helicopter was heard approaching the area, then it was seen coming in fast from the east. They continued to observe the animal which continued its activity. The helicopter came in over a rock-pile, then the animal “spooked.” It looked at the helicopter, turned, and ran “like a deer” around a rock-pile and out of sight.A full search of the area offered up not a trace of where the strange trespasser had gone, and the whole thing was reported to superiors the following day. It was then that the Lieutenant was apparently told that these creatures were sporadically spotted around the base, and he was told to continue to keep an eye on the situation. Over the next few years he would reportedly spot these creatures several more times, and he even claimed that they had been captured on surveillance video footage, although this evidence was unfortunately, or perhaps conveniently, classified. Then he was moved away from the base and that was that. It is very intriguing, but then again this witness also claimed that there were alien spaceships kept on the base and that the Sasquatch might have been connected, so make of that what you will. If real, it all is a very intriguing look at Sasquatch in the desert. A second officer interviewed by Trapp was a Major serving at the base from 1970 to 1978, and he too had his own odd stories to tell. This witness not only confirmed the previous reports, but also claimed that the things were known to prowl about in the various subterranean tunnels said to fan out in the depths under the base. This witness also confirmed that the Sasquatch had been filmed on surveillance cameras numerous times, but that these were also top secret. A third soldier interviewed was described as a “security grunt,” who claimed to have witnessed these Bigfoot several times through night-vision starlight scopes. Trapp would say of this man’s testimony: He told me that he had seen a couple of Sasquatches that stood over ten feet high, had seen “obvious” females (one with a young one walking with her), and once saw a group of five Sasquatches walking together, all over six feet tall with the tallest about eight feet tall. They were fully hair-covered except the palms of their hands, the base of their feet, and their face. He said their face resembled an ape with very small eyes, a flat nose, and ape-like lips. The arms were long and slung down to the knees. He said their feet were like ours, without an arch, as they had tracked them through the desert several times. When I asked him about the surveillance videos, he told me that he knew of them but was not involved in that. He said only officers were allowed to videotape the creatures or UFOs.Interestingly, all of the base personnel had apparently been given strict orders not to harm the creatures in any way, and this third witness said that he believed this was one reason why they gravitated to the area, because they “knew” they were safe there. Again, it is hard to know whether any of this is real in any sense or not, but desert Sasquatch are not unheard of and two of these witnesses were high ranking, so one is left to wonder just what is really going on here. In the winter of 1979 there was an intriguing report published on the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO) website from the US Army Signal School-Fort Gordon-Small Arms Impact Area in Richmond County, Georgia. The witness, known only as J.R.H., claimed that he had been near a ravine at South Prong Creek at around 2 PM when he was allegedly approached through the brush by broad and muscular “large man/ape creature,10′ to 10’6″ tall.” The face was described as being: Rather like a Gorilla. Dark skin and Dark deep set eyes, the head sloped back and was Neanderthal shaped, had no eyebrows,prominent lips but not protruding, jutting square chin, no ears or teeth were seen,prominent nostrils slight nose (not flat like a gorilla) and an aged look to the face.Contrary to many Bigfoot reports of an obnoxious stench, this particular individual was reported as having no discernible odor. The witness reportedly backed slowly away back to his truck and got out of there. A later examination of the area would turn up footprints measuring a whopping 22 inches in length, as well as 20 to 30 rock piles and what appeared to be vomit containing deer skin with hair attached and egg corns not well chewed, as well as droppings laced with deerskin, egg corns, and tree bark. Other assorted sightings during the 1960s and 70s occurred around the ammo storage area of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, which happens to be the largest military base in the world. Over the decades there were supposedly numerous sightings of hairy giants measuring 8 to 9 feet tall lurking about the site, which sits up against secluded wilderness and swampland. There were so many sightings that the creature even earned the nickname “The Manchester Monster.” Moving into the 1980s, we come to an account from the spring of that year, which supposedly occurred at Fort Leonard Wood Army Base, in the state of Missouri, in the spring of 1982. At the time the soldiers on the base were engaged in an intensive 8-week training exercise, and for one Erik Youngdahl it would all be particularly memorable. During the Internet Virtual Bigfoot Conference in 1996, Youngdahl would tell Bigfoot researcher Cristopher Murphy that the soldiers had been driving along in the back of a military truck towards an engineer bridge crossing training site deep in the woods when he would observe a giant 7 foot tall hairy creature from the back of the vehicle. He would explain knew right away what he was seeing, and would say: It is funny how this realization dawned on me because the immediate moment that I viewed him, there was not a doubt in my mind that the creature I observed was Bigfoot. I wasn’t looking for it, nor did I think that there have ever been sightings in that region of the country. It was automatic, boom, no doubt. What really surprised me was its coloration, which was a light brown color, almost like the color of cork on a bulletin board. That definitely is not a person, someone in a suit? No way. It did occur to me to alert the other trainees in the truck, but I immediately thought that by the time I did, they would awaken, crane their necks to look out the back, and by that time, not see anything. This all occurred to me in milliseconds.Also in May of 1982 there was a late night encounter at the Marine Corps Base at Camp Pendleton, California, in San Diego County, which was reported by the BFRO. The unidentified witness was involved at the time with a youth program consisting of a rigorous series of two week long mini-boot camps for teen-aged boys overseen by the Marines. On one calm evening the witness and around 300 boys on the camp settled down for the night, and the Marine ended up being one of the last awake on watch duty. As he patrolled the camp he says something very weird happened, which he would explain: As I turned facing west and looked towards the closest edge of the perimeter I noticed a tall, dark, bulky figure standing about 15 meters beyond the last tent or 20 meters from where I stood. We seemed to be staring at each other, but it’s hard to say because I could not make out any of its facial definition, but I had a strong gut feeling that it was checking me out real good since I was the only thing moving around. I could feel my heart begin to pound and my entire body felt like it wanted to anchor to the ground. There was no doubt someone or something very odd and dangerous was standing there looking at me. I mean this thing was TALL and wide at the shoulders. I used my peripheral vision to make sure I wasn’t seeing things, but it only confirmed what I already knew. It gently and slightly moved its upper body left and right ever so slowly as though looking around to its front, surveying the area. It was an easy 8 feet tall. Like I mentioned previously, all I could make out was its massive silhouette and no real detail features. It had very broad shoulders, little or no neck, dark, and looked very powerful.The witness then allegedly grabbed a flashlight and went to investigate, but he would lose sight of whatever the creature was. It was all very disconcerting because he was in charge of several hundred untrained civilian teenagers and was unsure of just what he was dealing with. Luckily, nothing strange happened for the rest of the evening, but when the area was investigated in the morning there was found to be no sign of what it could have been, and it remains a mystery. These are certainly strange cases, and it makes one wonder just what might draw these mysterious beasts to these places. If Bigfoot are indeed real then why should they want to gravitate towards these places of soldiers, weaponry, and machines of war? Are they curious as to what we are up to? Or is it the relative safety and isolation these places might provide? After all, these are secure bases well-protected from outsiders and acting as refuges in a sense, so maybe these beasts sense that they in a way have some sort of sanctuary here? There is no way to really know, and reports such as these just add further layers upon the weird world of the Bigfoot phenomenon. mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/06/mysterious-encounters-with-bigfoot-at-military-bases/

Pam in Oregon called in to tell of her Bigfoot sighting: “My story is not very long so I'll make it as quick as I can. My dad, back in '78 was a Portland policeman for 30 years. And once a year I used to get to go with him while he did his police work for a book report at school or something. I was 12. Well, we were coming home. We worked the graveyard, coming home at 4 in the morning, about seven miles north of Hubbard, Oregon. We lived down a gravel road which was about one mile from a school. It was all gravel but it was big enough for two cars to go by each other. And we were just, you know, I was half asleep but awake and he and I both saw something jump the road as if it was previously running already. It jumped the WHOLE road which was at least ten feet wide. It didn't even take a step in the middle. It jumped off the edge of the ditch and right into the orchard right next to where we lived. I kind of looked at him and he looked at me. He was a very quiet man but we just said, like, what was that? We got to the house and we parked the car in the driveway and we were both kind of running trying to get through the door as fast as we could. My nerves were so shot that that night before I went to bed, like this was morning. I told my sister that we're moving my bunk beds, we're moving them to the other wall because we lived in a three story house and I didn't want this thing looking in my attic window. So after that, I didn't saying anything to anybody except my mom and I didn't have friends around that lived close and school was out so the weird thing was. A week later a doctor in his little red Volkswagen went down the same road towards town. He saw the same thing and he was so scared that he stopped at the police station and, of course, that got out and it was wrote up in the paper and all that... It looked just like the Patterson one (referring to the Bigfoot creature filmed by Roger Patterson) except lighter hair.” Source: Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis - June 15, 2018 www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2018/06/weekend-2-cents-leaping-bigfoot-i-am.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+PhantomsAndMonstersAPersonalJourney+%28Phantoms+and+Monsters%29

americangg.net/please-dont-shoot-bigfoot/ Cops ask residents “please don’t shoot at Bigfoot”The Greenville Police Department in Greenville, South Carolina has asked local residents to refrain from shooting at Bigfoot. What seems like a joke has been confirmed as a real request made by the Greenville PD following a news article published on August 7th, 2017 by The Charlotte Observer. The GPD posted the following request on Facebook with a link to the article, After watching this video from nearby Boone, North Carolina, Facebook followers and friends, I think we can say with some confidence that proof of Bigfoot still eludes us. If you see Bigfoot, please do not shoot at him/her, as you’ll most likely be wounding a fun-loving and well-intentioned person, sweating in a gorilla costume. americangg.net/please-dont-shoot-bigfoot/

Multiple Family Members Describe Close Range Bigfoot Encounter Near Pittsburgh, Pa.Date of Incident: July 14, 2018 From Researcher: Stan Gordon A member of a family contacted me concerning an incident that had taken place on July 14, 2018, at a family picnic in a rural location outside of Pittsburgh. The person that I initially interviewed by phone sounded very sincere, and provided a detailed account of a strange encounter that various relatives experienced who attended the event that day. During the extended conversation, I was also able to interview some other family members who told me about what had occurred. They sounded shaken as they described the encounter that had taken place. One witness I talked with saw a creature at close range that was similar to other Bigfoot reports that I was aware of from around the Pittsburgh area. I was able to obtain a lot of information from those involved concerning the unusual experiences that had occurred. The family members, who didn’t want to be identified, were perplexed over what had taken place and were looking for answers to what had occurred. I contacted two experienced Bigfoot Investigators, Dave and Cindy Dragosin who lived in the Pittsburgh area as well. The Dragosin’s while independent investigators, also collaborate with other Bigfoot research groups such as the Keystone Bigfoot Project, Pennsylvania Cryptozoological Society, and Goosebumps Paranormal. Dave has become well known as a Bigfoot eyewitness forensic artist, where he sketches the creatures described by witnesses whom he has interviewed. Dave and Cindy arranged to meet with family members during daylight at the location where the encounter had taken place. The witnesses were reluctant to return to that location after dark. The investigators interviewed those involved, took pictures and gathered other information, and Dave sketched the creature based on the testimony of an eyewitness. The following details were obtained from the investigation report by Dave and Cindy Dragosin. Some information was edited to protect the confidentiality of those involved. On Sunday, July 14, 2018, nine family members along with their large dog began their day-long family picnic during the late afternoon. They were planning to dance, play music, and cook a lot of food and meat on the grill to celebrate a birthday. The children were running around in the woods gathering dead tree limbs to be used for fuel in the campfire for later that evening. There was no electricity in the area, and they had to use the water source available nearby. The tantalizing aroma of the food and meat cooking filled the surrounding wooded area. Shortly after 11p.m., many of the personal belongings and picnic items began to be placed in the family cars, but the campfire remained lit and the karaoke machine kept on playing, with the family dancing and singing around the campfire. At approximately 11: 30 that evening, the family dog became agitated by something moving rather stealthily in the woods just to the east of a nearby structure. This very large dog began to growl and bark in a rather agitated manner. Whatever was moving from east to south in the perimeter surrounding the structure began to growl back at the canine. This commotion caused a male adult, who was standing approximately 15 to 20 yards away, to draw his attention toward the location where the water was located, and the wooded area south of the structure. As the growling continued, growing louder with more intensity, the man noticed a form emerging from the shadows of the trees into the light of the campfire and before his eyes he observed a very, very big, hairy humanoid like creature. The witness was mesmerized for a brief moment as the creature stood with legs apart and its long arms outstretched exuding intimidation. The man estimated that the creature stood around 8 feet tall. The creature appeared to be very muscular and massive with broad shoulders and covered with long dark hair. The witness stated that he could hear the creature breathing profoundly and heavily, as he watched its huge chest moving in and out. The man was immediately struck with fear because not only of the creature’s size, but said this huge hominid like creature had glowing red eyes. The witness for about 10-15 seconds was able to see the full frontal appearance of the creature, but it was too dark to see any facial characteristics or other specific details. The man also recalled there was a brief moment where the creature was swaying back and forth, from left to right for only a couple of times. Then in an instant, the creature turned to its right and ran extremely fast toward the same direction from which it came into the northeast woods. Another young boy said that he also saw the creature run back into the woods. In the meantime, the dog, tethered nearby, continued to bark furiously in what members of the family say was a rather agitated and defensive manner. Two women ran to their cars parked near the structure, turned on the ignition and adjusted the cars so that the car’s headlights faced into the woods in anticipation of seeing what was fleeing from their picnic area. All of the frightened family members said they could feel the ground beneath them resound from the size and weight of the creature, as it fled the vicinity through dark dense wooded area. None of the other family members stated they actually saw a full frontal version of the creature, only a brief silhouette of its movement through the woods. Following the experience on July 14th, the children were rounded up, placed in their respective vehicles, all belongings were gathered and the campfire was extinguished in order to vacate the picnic site as quickly as possible. During a one-on-one, face to face interview session that was set up with the family, it was noted that all family members were quite sincere in their reiteration of the event. It was determined that what they saw was a true to life changing encounter. Each and every one of the family adult members were anxious to interpret what they were able to hear, and that was the vocalizations between their pet dog and the creature growling, snarling and chortling at each other. The temperature that evening was very humid, in the mid-70s, and the skies were clear. Other than growls and snarls, there were no other external vocalizations or odors emitted from the creature. It was also noted and agreed upon that just prior to the creature’s appearance, the aroma of cooked meat and various food lingered, along with the children and women shouting, laughing and playing gleefully around the campfire and songs were being sung in preparation of singing Happy Birthday and cutting the cake. Unfortunately, that part of the birthday celebration never happened that night. When the investigators returned to the site at a later date and the exact location was pointed out to the investigators, the tree that the creature stood by was measured and the head of the creature was approximately at an 11 foot mark on the tree. Stan’s addendum: Historically, there have been numerous reports of Bigfoot encounters originating from throughout the greater Pittsburgh area and surrounding counties. These incidents continue to be reported yearly from throughout the state. The creature may have been attracted to this location by the smell of the food cooking and the human activity that was taking place. There have been numerous incidents reported where these large hair covered creatures have thrown large rocks and tree limbs in the direction of humans that were nearby. This has suggested to some researchers that they are marking their territory and want the trespassers to leave. As in this case, the creatures have at times approached within close range of the observers but generally move off from the area once they are seen. This creature seemed curious of the human activities but did not approach any further into the picnic area to harm the individuals.

The incident occurred on Thursday August 30th at approximately 12:30 AM. The witness stated that he was traveling eastbound on I-40 between Nashville and Knoxville, Tennessee. He had been having trouble with the right headlight on his rig going on and off, so he pulled off near the 334 mile marker, a few miles west of Roane County. He pulled back the hood in order to work on the headlight. He had a super bright LED flashlight with him. As he was examining the headlight, he heard movement in the trees behind him. The trees were only 20-25 feet away, and the sounds were similar to those of a person walking. He pointed the flashlight in the direction of the trees, when he instantly noticed bright 'eye shine' looking back at him. As he continued to observe, an unknown creature stepped out into the open. He was mortified because he had never seen anything like this. I asked for a description. He stated that is was an '8-foot man with long black hair all over its body' and that the face looked 'strange...deformed.' He also stated that it had a 'narrow waist, huge wide shoulders and no neck.' I asked if he thought that it was a Bigfoot. He hesitated and stated 'I suppose it was, but it didn't look like the ones I've seen on TV.' The being stood beside a medium-sized tree and simply glared at the witness. There were no sounds, though it slightly swayed side to side. The witness said that it stood silent for almost 20 seconds, then ducked behind the tree. It continued to watch the witness, who quickly closed the truck hood and left the area. The witness stated that he has been an outdoorsman and hunter in eastern Tennessee for most of his life, and that he had never encountered anything like this before. He regularly travels I-40, usually twice per week. I asked if he has ever heard of similar encounters by other people, which he responded 'I've heard stories, but never believed that those things existed around here.' The witness found my sighting report advertisement on Google and decided to call. He stated that he was hesitant to make a report, but the encounter 'shook me up so bad' and 'I felt I needed to tell someone.' www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2018/09/black-bigfoot-encountered-along-i-40-in.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed:+PhantomsAndMonstersAPersonalJourney+(Phantoms+and+Monsters)

Just to be clear, the story you're about to read is 100 % real, it happened to me and I remember it like it was yesterday but it actually happened 25 years ago. I was born July 14th, 1958. So at the time of this tale I was 33 years old, and it happened on August 28th. My dad would always take me and my brother Jeremiah hunting and fishing, so that custom stayed with me forever. That day, August 28th, 1991, I was hunting in Jackson Demonstration State Forest in Mendocino County, California, with my brother Jeremiah. it was a little bit difficult to pattern the deer because of the water, the area is extremely thick with lots of young growth. Two hours had passed and we only had four rabbits in our hunt so we started to think about getting out of there but we stayed for one more hour just to make it worth our while. When we finally agreed that it was time to go, we heard something coming from behind us, it was a loud scream, not a human scream, an animal scream. But it wasn't of an animal we've ever heard before, so we decided to go back and look for the source of those screams. As we approached the site, we noticed that there was nothing there, we started to search the area, but as we were doing that I felt the presence of someone, and I instantly felt observed. I turned around looking for someone or something and I found something in the distance, hiding behind some trees. I didn't called my brother, as I felt it was nothing important but when I almost reached the trees, I saw a heavily hairy man running across. I grabbed my .22 rifle and followed the footprints left behind by the hairy man. After some three minutes of following I finally caught the thing that left those enormous footprints. He was like 30 feet away from me. I hid as best as I could and he didn't see me but he certainly heard me cause he looked around and started making some weird noises, as if he was trying to communicate. I wasn't sure if I should step away from my hiding spot and make contact with this beast, but I finally decided to do so. I stood up and pointed my rifle towards him, slowly approaching until I was just 15 feet away. Looking at him, I noticed he was like 8 to 9 feet tall, he had a reddish hair that covered him almost completely. Just part of his face and hands had no hair. I also noticed he had some white hairs in his torso. He just looked at me and stood there, making weird noises, but suddenly he mouthed the word "no danger" very slowly, almost unintelligible and pointed at himself. At this time, I lowered my rifle and kept looking at him. The nervous expression on his face had disappeared and he started walking deep into the forest. I turned around and started looking for my brother, still shocked. When I found him he was very worried. I told him what happened and he told me that he saw one too, a female sasquatch with her baby in hands. I'm not sure but it was very possible that the Sasquatch I found was the mate of the one my brother found and the little baby sasquatch was their brood. When we were making our way back to the road, I looked back and I swear I saw him in the distance, observing us as were leaving. We never talked about this to anyone, but my brother contacted me recently with another story of Sasquatch that I may share with you some other time, and because of that and this story I became very intrigued about this subject. So I thought I share this story with some people. Here are some things about the Sasquatch I encountered that I remember: - He had reddish hair and white hairs in his torso. - Had a deep voice but was capable of screaming very high. - His footprints were like 18 inches long and 9 or 10 inches wide. - He also had very big hands but looked very similar to those of a human, just more hairy. - He had hair in his face that formed some kind of beard, and he also had some hair in his forehead but his skin was more or less light colored. - Wide nose, wide lips, he looked like a hybrid human/ape. Almost like a Homo Erectus or a Neanderthal. - He looked very muscular. - He could not stand completely straight long. - He had a somewhat clumsy way of walking but he certainly ran pretty fast. - He had some kind of... language that was reminiscent of human languages. - He knew some words of english language. - He was a peaceful being.

KD was returning to her home in central Oregon after spending the week in California. The incident occurred on a clear day (Sunday September 30th) around 2PM PT while she was driving north on Oregon Rt. 230 in the vicinity of Crater Lake. The two creatures walked out onto the highway, one behind the other, and briskly crossed the road in front of KD (west to east toward Crater Lake). She estimates that the pair reached the east side shoulder of the highway approximately 30 ft. from her...so she was able to get a good description of the Bigfoot pair. KD has lived in Oregon and California all of her 60 years, but has never seen one of these beings before. She states that both Bigfoot were very similar in height and body mass...7+ ft and extremely muscular. She assumes both were male. They were covered in medium brown fur / hair, with no other distinguishable features. KD states that they were definitely not human, though they moved fluidly like a human, with arms swaying back and forth as they walked. She says that they traversed the width of the roadway in 6-7 strides each. She was amazed at how nonchalant the two Bigfoot were...not seeming to care what was around them. There were no other vehicles in the vicinity at the time of the sighting. This sighting was made in Klamath County, Oregon, an area well-known for Bigfoot observations, and possible habituations...as well as other legends. mysteriousuniverse.org/2015/12/myth-mysteries-and-monsters-at-oregons-cursed-crater-lake/ www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2018/10/bigfoot-pair-observed-near-crater-lake.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed:+PhantomsAndMonstersAPersonalJourney+(Phantoms+and+Monsters)

I strongly feel that I have a Bigfoot problem. Here is what has been going on. I live alone in a rural part of northern Arkansas, in the Ozarks. My closet neighbor is about a half mile down the road from me. Each evening before dusk, I walked my 2 dogs along the road and occasionally off into the woods. Since early September, when we'd reach an area near the edge of my property during our walks, small rocks and branches have been hurled from the woods in our direction. In fact, one evening my Pitbull was hit in the hindquarters, hard enough to cause swelling. The dogs have reacted violently during a few walks, but not all the time. Because of the initial activity, I decided to walk my dogs in the other direction along the road. About a week ago, the same activity started along the new route. For the past few days, I have just allowed the dogs to roam on their own in the yard and woods around my house. I figured that the dogs would avoid any danger and stay clear of whatever was in the area. I believe that they have been OK, and have returned to the house after 10 minutes or so. Now I have another problem. Wednesday night (October 3rd) there were blood curdling screams coming from the woods behind my property. I have never heard anything like it before. It sounded like someone or something was in terrible pain, and it was coming from several directions. The dogs cowered in the basement and would not come upstairs until the next morning, when I left them outside. When I opened the back door, there was an horrific stench that still lingers in the air. It smells like old road kill, to be honest. The dogs stayed in the yard, and quickly did their business and ran back into the house. Last night, it was fairly quiet, but around 10PM I noticed something bizarre near the woodpile at the back of my yard. I could barely make out the large tall form as I watched from my porch. I'd say it was at least 7 ft in height. But whatever it was had, literally, glowing red eyes. I looked at it for about 15 seconds, then it quickly vanished. I told my brother about the incidents, and he suggested that it may be a Bigfoot. He gave me your email after searching online. If we could talk, that would be great. HH NOTE: I called the witness today and discussed the incidents. He has lived in the house for over 10 years and has never experienced anything unusual previously. The witness is skeptical when it comes to the paranormal, but he truly believes that he has a Bigfoot-like being in his vicinity. At this point, HH asked that I not be specific about his location when posting the account. I will keep in touch with HH in order to assess any further activity.

Important, IMO, that the resident has lived there for over 10 years and not experienced anything like this. . .
Can “something” (such as a Bigfoot) leave an area, for quite some time, and then come back and claim it as their own?
Yes, I’m thinking animals and territory. IF, like some of us suspect, that “bigfeets” are an “escaped creature” from another dimension, then this creature COULD HAVE BEEN in this same area before, and have no idea how much time has passed since their last “visit”.
Or, something “new” in the woods. However it got here, maybe it is very frightened and just throws sticks and such at the person and their dogs to keep them away from itself..... it figures that IT can see and smell the person and his dogs, and thinks they also see and smell him (IT)? IDK.
But yeah, a “problem”. Who wants to be scared off their own land after living there peacefully for 10 years?
This person may have to let an investigation on their land. 🙁 To try to get that peace again. I’m thinking of the person first checking to see if there is any one in the area that has “heightened senses” and can try to find out what is “going on” suddenly. Not a bunch of trappers trying to go around stealthily with guns.....
Hopefully, we will see stories someday, where the person involved PRAYS ABOUT IT. Where they literally seek an answer, for possibly many days, not being physically harmed in the meantime.
(I think that THIS, prayer idea, has been happening for years. People are just as reluctant to talk about this as any thing else paranormal.)

Ok, now the “other side of the coin”.
Let’s say, it’s me living down there by myself. I have a few guns, and my trusty dogs sometimes cower in the basement. It would be hard to go to sleep at night; literally “waiting” for sounds to come closer; even heavy sticks or rocks shattering a house window.
What would I do?
Especially now that “I’ve seen something” standing ON MY PROPERTY, near the woodpile.
The “sounds” of things thrown lasted about a month, and I shrugged them off- but maybe now there is a sudden escalation.
The “blood-curdling screams” is a time that MAYBE I should have gone outside and fired my gun into the air a couple of times.... maybe it’s not too late to do that; because I am feeling a little threatened now that my dogs don’t want to go outside...
I have a car I can leave in, but where am I going to go? Do I leave my property every day to go to work, and just come home wondering what I will find? Assuming this “thing” figured out intelligently that I come and go. That I like to walk my dogs every evening.
What would YOU do?

Frankly, some of the story is difficult to believe, but I'm going to present it anyway for your opinion: It happened to me on August 28, 1991. I was 33 years old at that time. My brother Jeremiah and I decided to go hunting to the Jackson Demonstration State Forest in California. It was really difficult to actually hunt something as the area was extremely thick with lots of young growth.

I was used to thin cover at that time) and followed the giant footprints left behind by the hairy man. After some three minutes of following, I finally caught him. He was like 30 feet away from me. I hid as best as I could and he didn't see me, but he certainly heard me cause he looked around and started making some weird noises, as if he was trying to communicate.

www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2018/11/north-georgia-bigfoot-tactical-military.html Friday, November 09, 2018 North Georgia Bigfoot / Tactical Military PersonnelPosted by Lon Strickler / plus.google.com/+LonStrickler I recently received the following account: I don’t like the term researcher so I would say I’m a Bigfoot enthusiast who has read a ton of books on the topic, seen every documentary, listened to many Sasquatch podcasts & have backpacked into what I consider a very active area in north Georgia. Haven’t seen a creature but I had 2 unbelievable experiences this year. The first experience happened at a campground. I was awakened at around 4 a.m. by a pack of howling coyotes. About 3 seconds after the coyotes started howling all of a sudden this roaring 'yahoo' type of scream that sounded like it was coming from all sides...completely drowned out the coyotes. It was so loud and powerful that I could feel the vibrations coming up through the ground through my sleeping bag, clearly nothing I’ve ever heard before. I’ve heard other people describe a loud roaring yahoo sound with these creatures coupled with the fact that I have studied this mystery for so long I knew right away that had to be a Bigfoot. This roar was so loud that the creature couldn’t have been more than a hundred yards for me which is a little strange in itself because one side of the campground is a pretty busy road, but nonetheless the area in general of this campground is surrounded by forest. The second experience happened 30 days later. Once again not far from where the first experience had occurred. This time I was staying at a second campground that was much more secluded and deeper in the forest in north Georgia. It was around 6 p.m., I and other campers were standing around talking about some of the hiking we had done earlier that day. Other people were out and about getting their campfires started. Also there was a campground host who was walking around introducing himself with a clipboard making sure people had paid and also joined in the conversations. It was at this time that all of a sudden roughly 50 yards uphill on a ridge overlooking the campground a tree comes crashing down. Moments after the tree had hit the ground I and all the others that were standing around talking heard what can only be described as a loud guttural grunt, the kind of grunt you would hear out of a Silverback Gorilla. All of us were startled, and were asking each other what the heck crashed that tree and then made that deep guttural grunt sound. One of the other campers even mentioned that it was probably a Bigfoot. The other campers laughed but I didn’t think it was too funny because if one of those creatures was nearby we possibly could be looking at a very dangerous situation. Thankfully nothing happened after that but here is where the story gets really weird. At the back of this campground is a dirt road. This road can be used for hiking or travel during hunting season. One of my favorite things to do when I’m backpacking or camping is to wake up early, get a fire going and have me a nice hot cup of coffee. I got up that morning around 6am, got my fire going & fresh coffee made. As I’m sipping on my coffee out of the dirt road at the back of the campground comes this white SUV completely blacked out with a big huge sticker of a “Patty” silhouette stuck to the back window. Me being the believer in the existence of these creatures have a few similar stickers on my back window. So I took what I was seeing as a friendly visit from a fellow Bigfoot enthusiast. I took it upon myself to casually walk up and say hello and see if there was anything we could talk about regarding any creature activity in the area. As I approached the driver of the SUV rolled his window down about halfway and I immediately noticed something odd. First there were two guys in the SUV and they were both dressed in full tact gear, 2 AR-15’s on a gun rack at the back of the interior with both gentlemen having military style boots, pistols at the ankles, black beanies & sunglasses. I mean these guys were completely decked out like a law enforcement would be, but there was no badge, just complete tact dress from head to toe. I then playfully asked “are you guys looking for Bigfoot?” The driver of the SUV then said to me “why do you ask?” I replied “I see the Bigfoot sticker at the back of your vehicle, I have a couple of those on the back window of my car also.” The reply I received is very strange, the driver just looked at me without saying anything and then the passenger guy in a very stuttering kind of manner said “it’s just a practical joke sticker from my girlfriend.” After that response the driver then stepped on the gas and out of the campground they went. I just find it odd that there is a perfectly healthy tree pushed over followed by a gorilla like grunt and then these two tact/possible military guys show up the next morning out of nowhere driving a blacked out suv with an oversized Sasquatch sticker on the back window. Very very odd in my opinion. - Dan M. NOTE: the presence of people dressed in tactical military gear, in areas in which Bigfoot and upright canines are seen, is becoming more commonplace.

It's probably some hunters trying to kill a bigfoot so they can get rich and sell him to all the newspapers and tvs and stuff. I bet somebody would pay a lot of money for a dead bigfoot.

Hate to disagree..... but I think that this is like “the alien thing”.
As in, the military know that these things exist, and like the rest of us, would like some MORE proof.
Yeah, these might have been a couple “yahoo’s” on personal time (why would they stop and chat with a civi ?).
I’ve wondered about “the military angle” and BF ever since hearing about the Dennis Martin case (to the North).

It all lasted no more than five seconds but it is etched into my memory. Uneventful but very real and spectacular. I've told nobody yet. I never felt like I should bring it up and it was meant just for me. It was August 2018 at 6:10 am in upstate New York in the Adirondacks area. I often left bread, nuts, fruit and vegetable scraps thrown in the yard. I enjoyed watching the birds, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, deer, fox, raven and crows eat the food I fed them. I could sit out there with my morning coffee. The critters did not mind me being there. I would talk and pretend I was conversing with them. This went on for months. I would sit here in the yard as the sun would go down. Another animal feeding time. Sometimes I would go out late and very late for a smoke. Again I would walk around in silence listening and enjoying nature. A remote and wooded area. "The woods" if you will. Sounds like I'm rambling but I'm setting the scene and my pattern of behaviour. Not uncommon for me to be here day or night. So, one morning I go out the back door for coffee and a smoke. I'm standing at the back door breathing in the fresh morning air and take a sip of coffee. Nothing is out of normal. Birds chirping and critters moving about. Then I hear a "snort" like a deer would do. I look exactly where it came from. Maybe 100 or less feet away. The woods have the morning light shining on the line of trees but beyond that was still mostly dark. I could see about 20 feet into the tree line. I don't see a deer. Within two seconds of the first snort I hear another one as I am still looking but not seeing a deer. Something steps out from behind a tree. Its left side is facing me. All I could see was a large black shape step out. It stands there for maybe a few seconds. I know what I was looking at but I had no reaction other than just watching. It made a noise but not the snorting kind. Then it walked into the woods. Not only did I see and hear it walk away but I felt it in the ground. Like it was hollow and vibrated. No breaking or snapping branches just footsteps. Almost like an echo in the ground. After about six steps it was gone. Nothing changed. Same bird's and critters moving about. Unaffected. I stood there processing what had just happened over the last few seconds. Other than the echoing thuds of footsteps it was silent. When I realized that, I walked forward slowly to the spot. Not sure what I would see. Nothing. Where it was standing the ground was covered with fallen and old branches. You, nor I or a ninja could have walked through here silently. I judge the height an easy 8 feet tall. Based on its head height relative to the tree it stood next to. I stood there looking around with no sounds. I walked back to the picnic table and sat on it. Still everything is as normal. After the coffee and smoke, and observing the wildlife, I go and head inside. As I reach for the door knob I feel like I should turn around. So I do and scan the tree line again. Nothing. Just as I turn the knob while facing the door I see a flash of light like a camera flash. Like someone behind me just took a picture. Instantly I got goosebumps. My hairs stood right up and felt like I couldn't get inside quick enough. Strange but uneventful and very memorable. It had to have watched me for at least ten seconds before it moved. Haven't seen it since. It wanted me to know it was there. This thing was massive.” - John Wesch www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2018/12/bigfoot-vanisheslater-flash-of-light.html

mysteriousuniverse.org/2019/01/video-shows-a-possible-bigfoot-sighting-in-utah/ Video Shows a Possible Bigfoot Sighting in Utahby Paul Seaburn / mysteriousuniverse.org/author/paulseaburn/January 24, 2019 A new video allegedly showing what many are saying is a Sasquatch on a mountain in Provo, Utah, has proven one thing … if you post a Bigfoot video with a clearly defined residential neighborhood in the foreground, you’re going to attract a LOT of Bigfoot hunters. Beyond that … well, let’s take a look. The video (you can view the original here) appears to have been taken on January 2, 2019, and uploaded first to Facebook and then to Reddit by Austin M. Craig, a television and video producer in Provo, Utah, who – before anyone starts criticizing a pro for the poor quality – points out that he got it from the Facebook page of a friend of his. “I’m bugged that he started filming with the video in vertical mode – it degrades the recording quality. Everybody in his comments is telling him to hike up and check out the footprints, but he keeps giving reasons he can’t — It’s cold, that’s a long way up, etc. I might try to get out there today.” The proper way to shoot a Bigfoot video The video clearly shows a dark figure on the hill behind a house. It’s too far away to get anything more than the usual blurred image, so comments about it being “huge” are speculation. However, Austin Craig (many accounts wrongly credit him with taking the original video) was inspired to put his video production talents to work and filmed his own ‘horizontal’ video. He and two partners trudged up the hill with the usual Bigfoot expedition commentary about how hard it was. (You can see their video here.) There was also a comment from someone on the ground about how much smaller they looked than the thing in the Bigfoot video, but again, perspectives are tough to judge and the “hugeness” was speculation. That video, posted on Craig’s YouTube page, Reddit and elsewhere, inspired members of the Rocky Mountain Sasquatch Organization to mount THEIR own follow-up expedition. That 30-minute video (each keeps getting longer – see it here) has more of the usual trudging, huffing and looking. They spot a few large imprints that may or may not have been made by the creature, along with plenty of human footprints of other Bigfoot hunters. The lack of other Bigfoot prints is attributed to the creature being smart enough to step where there was no snow or mud. While that video, like the one by Craig, had no images of the alleged Bigfoot, it inspired the man who took the first one to reveal himself on their YouTube page. Here’s what alleged Bigfoot witness Brett Stubbs had to say: “I filmed the original video, and have a higher res version that Facebook didn’t compress. I was just in my driveway getting my car jumped. My friend came over to help me jump my car, which was dead because it was so cold that day (high of 21 low of 4). My daughter and I were trying to get to the grocery store before my parents got there (coming in from out of town), my friend was already late for something so I felt bad that he had to come over in the first place, so keeping it filmed was not a huge priority. I’m not a Bigfoot person by any stretch. I wouldn’t be too surprised if it exists, considering most sightings seem to be in the mountains, and most large primates live in mountains. I work 60-80 hours a week, and the last thing I have time for is a hoax. Someone could have been trolling us, but there are like 4 houses that would be able to see it, and at 17 degrees, and one hell of a climb, that’s a hell of a lot of effort to hope someone sees you. We spotted it on the mountain, and at first I thought someone was hiking up there, which I have never seen, but then I noticed just how HUGE it was, so I pulled out my phone. It’s hard to explain, but with my eyes, I could see it much better than with the camera. It was stark with the white snow. At first I was laughing about it, but then as I zoomed in, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. We climbed up later that day, but not high enough! We were probably the boot tracks you saw 30 feet lower. After we saw this video we were SO bummed that we didn’t go higher!! We just didn’t realize the placement was off. Well, my wife did, but I didn’t listen to her ” It was nice of Brett to clarify his sighting – he’s probably tired of people knocking on his door asking if this is the Bigfoot spot and then criticizing his video. And he makes a couple of good points. Whatever he saw (and however big it was), it had a heck of a climb (as the other videos also pointed out) – one that would be difficult in the frigid cold while wearing or even just carrying a costume. He also reiterates the hugeness he felt he saw, so maybe it wasn’t speculation. On the other hand, although he points out that he had a better “higher res version” of the video, he didn’t provide it to the site. You want me to climb wear? Without a hat? At the end of the day, what do we have? Another blurry and faraway video. Excuses. Lots of dedicated Bigfoot hunters working hard to figure out what happened and/or prove it was/wasn’t a Bigfoot. Speculations. Clarifications. More trips up the same mountain planned. No definite proof it was a Bigfoot. No definitive proof it was a guy in a costume. Plenty of people getting some exercise and fresh air. A good story. That’s what it’s all about. mysteriousuniverse.org/2019/01/video-shows-a-possible-bigfoot-sighting-in-utah/

mysteriousuniverse.org/2019/01/some-outlandish-real-cases-of-bigfoot-living-with-humans/ Some Outlandish Real Cases of Bigfoot Living with Humansby Brent Swancer / mysteriousuniverse.org/author/brentswancer/January 24, 2019 By far one of the most well-known and well-sighted cryptids in history is none other than Bigfoot, also called Sasquatch, a veritable rock star of cryptozoology. These huge hairy hominids have been sighted and searched for all over North America, and there have often been some rather strange and curious accounts indeed. Yet, even more bizarre than sightings of Bigfoot are the occasional tales of people claiming to actually live in close contact with these mysterious creatures, making detailed observations and even forming bonds with them and communicating with them. It is a truly unique phenomenon that is every bit as bizarre as you might expect. This particular phenomenon is typically called “Bigfoot habituation,” the witnesses often referred to as “contactees,” and one can almost envision it as sort of similar to Diane Fossey and her gorillas living together and studying each other. There are numerous such cases, and one fairly major account of Bigfoot habituation comes from the wildernesses of Washington state, in the United states, and revolves around a witness named Sali Sheppard-Wolford and her family, also being an account that perhaps transcends just hairy hominid encounters to truly catapult to the realms of high strangeness. Wolford lived near the town of Orting, Washington, in the 70s, along with her daughter, Autumn, around which much of the tale seems to gravitate. They lived here in a rustic, modest, somewhat disheveled cabin, described as “an 11×33 foot wooden box with holes in the floor and a cold water faucet,” surrounded by quaint wilderness and a sea of trees, but almost as soon as they moved in there was strangeness afoot, and Wolford says in an interview with Jeffery Pritchett, of The Church Of Mabus Radio Show, of this day: When we walked out to view the river I knew we would live there. When we turned to walk back, my ex yelled, “Race ya!”, and disappeared into the woods. I couldn’t recall where we’d come out, so I took the most obvious path. I picked wild flowers as I walked, expecting him to do something to scare me, like jumping out from behind a bush and screaming. That was when I noticed the woods had become dark and completely quiet.
When I looked up, the sky was filled with ominous, rolling clouds. I shivered, and realized I was not alone, and the presence I felt was not that of my husband. I screamed his name and turned to run, then a terrible smell wafted by on the sodden breeze. The woods erupted behind me, and I turned toward the sound of ripping foliage. As I watched, something huge and hairy disappeared into the trees.
Charged by waves of fear, I began running again, but tripped over a root and landed in the wet sand. I lay still, catching my breath. When I looked up, I noticed the sky had returned to normal. Puffy, white clouds stretched peacefully in a pale, blue sky. Birds twittered from hidden perches. The fragrance of Spring in the forest filled the air. The presence was gone.
I summoned up my last bit of courage and retraced my steps until I came upon the spot where I had dropped my flowers. Off to the side of the path it looked like a tank had gone through the thick underbrush. Then the destruction just stopped. I looked for a place where something that large could have gone farther, but there was none. Broken branches hung like dead snakes as I looked up into the overhanging limbs. I spied a tuft of brown hair caught on one. It was too far up for me to reach, but I finally managed with the aid of a stick. When I pulled it down, I winced at the rancid smell I would never forget. That’s when it hit me just how huge that shape had been. The funny thing was, it had run away just like I had. We had scared each other.For the next four years the family was supposedly frequently visited by these Bigfoot-like creatures, with countless sightings of the beasts, and often they were seen by friends and neighbors as well. There were also many such incidents when she and her daughter were together. Wolford gives one such odd encounter thus: We came around a bend on one of the trails behind our cabin and standing in the dappled shade of the trees were an adult Sasquatch, and his much smaller companion. I couldn’t have moved if I’d wanted to. With my three-year-old daughter by my side, I stood frozen in place until the adult broke eye contact. He cocked his head and looked down at the fur coat I was wearing as if to say, ” What kind of animal ARE you?” At that point my instincts kicked in. I spoke softly when I told Autumn her to, “turn around and walk, honey, don’t run”. When she was safely out of sight, I turned and followed. The two Sasquatch never moved.
When we returned to our cabin, we crawled into bed. My husband was livid when he came home from work because there was no wood to burn. I told him we were sick because I had no other excuse for being in bed. I did not remember that meeting on the trail for over 20 years. What I remember most is the eyes. Full of intelligence. They were about twice the size of my own, and no whites were visible. The color was brown, but they had a greenish tint, and were covered with a sort of convex lens like a cat. They were not the eyes of an animal. I had the feeling they looked deep into my soul.Much of this was intertwined with a great deal of other mysterious occurrences, such as myriad light anomalies that appeared in the forest, and Wolford says that often the Sasquatch that appeared would have these orbs surrounding them, or wreaths of tiny lights like fireflies orbiting their heads and shoulders. She says of one such encounter: One night I was looking out the kitchen window and saw the tall, dark form of a Sasquatch walking down the path toward the river. Surrounding his head and upper torso were tiny, twinkling white lights. When I tapped on the window, the lights went out like someone had flipped a switch, and he was swallowed in darkness.It is all very bizarre, and besides sightings of mystery lights and Bigfoot, there was also the unusual detail in that Wolford claims that at the time she was also frequently visited by a spectral elderly Native American gentleman who she calls the “Dream Walker.” This stranger would apparently take her on journeys into the past, guiding her through the history of the Bigfoot of the valley, showing her the early life of the Native Chinook tribe and their beliefs and way of life. She says of these: These journeys, for the most part, were quite disturbing for they showed me the fate of both the Natives, and the Sasquatch as they were pushed farther into the forest or violently disposed of. I was given hope for the future of Sasquatch in the form of Dream Walker’s last words to me: “Remember all I have shown you and teach your young ones. I will not be here to remind you. Make sure the children believe in what they cannot touch or see. To one of you a girl child has been born. She has the sunbeams in her hair. One day I will come to her as I have come to you. She too will learn the ways of our people and Skookum.” It did not occur to me at the time that he was describing my daughter, Autumn.
As to who Dream Walker is I will answer you thus… In one of our later journeys it was the present time. He led me down the path behind Youdi’s cabin. I walked around a curve on the path between the huge, rotting logs that had been deposited by some ancient flood and there stood the adult Sasquatch (I now know) I had met on the path. One minute he was there, then the next Dream Walker stood in his place. That answered the question for me, but I leave it to others to decide for themselves.With so many incidents of utter strangeness surrounding them, one might think that Wolford might take Bigfoot to be some sort of spiritual entity or even an alien, but she seems to think that this is not necessarily the case, tending to believe that they are a form of prehistoric man, although she entertains other possibilities. Considering all of the other phenomena witnessed upon the land, Wolford was asked her opinion on whether the Bigfoot she had been seeing were related to the UFO phenomenon, to which she answers: I’ve thought long and hard on this question. I don’t know that there is a connection, but I wouldn’t rule it out. The fact that we experienced both, along with many other anomalies, during our time in the valley could lead one to that conclusion, but the fact that so many strange things happened in one place could be caused by something else entirely. There are so many things that science seems to ignore, or can’t explain. I’ve looked into the possibility of a vortex in that area, or a junction of ley lines. Native Americans have looked at certain areas near Mt. Rainier as sacred for centuries.Sali Sheppard-Wolford has written extensively on these unusual experiences in her book, Valley of the Skookum: Four Years of Encounters with Bigfoot, if you want to know more. In another account we have the story of a Julie Scott, who lived also with her husband and two daughters in Pacific Northwest, in the northeast corner of Washington state, and who recounts her numerous dealings with what she calls “The Forest People.” As soon as they moved onto the property, Scott says they were met with a wide range of inexplicable occurrences, such as noises, huge shadows darting about in the moonlight, feelings of being watched, and others. It came to their attention that this was a tribe of Bigfoot-like creatures circling their abode and even following them around from place to place, composed of a predominant male, several females, juveniles and infants. As to why this clan had congregated around them, Scott says: I believe they can “read” people and know their intentions, so they most likely saw us for who we really are and that we would never harm them. They also seem to like females, 3 adult ones in our home, and children, one small granddaughter at the time, 2 now. Territorial? Don’t think so. We have had them on our property at 4 locations where we lived and now live.
These Bigfoot would apparently try to communicate with them through series of whoops, screams, grunts, growling, rock-knocking, tree-knocking, whistles, clapping, and others, and it was also said that they would often leave “gifts” for the family in the form of rocks, food, firewood, plants, feathers, sticks, and dead animals. This continuous contact would go on for a full 6 months, but Bigfoot researchers who descended upon the property were unable to get any good photographic evidence of the creatures or even get a good look at them. Of the possible nature of these creatures, it seems complicated, and the witness says: I believe Bigfoot are flesh and blood creatures, but some can go in and out of dimensions. I say “some” because I believe they are different types of Bigfoot creatures …having different abilities. They are not all they same. Some can “disappear” …I’ve seen one do that with my own eyes. I believe they are wild-type of humans…more human then animal, like an ape. They have languages, which make them human. Animals have vocalizations, but not languages. This alone shows them to be human.Scott has also written a book of her and her family’s extensive Bigfoot experiences called Visits from the Forest People: An Eyewitness Report of Extended Encounters with Bigfoot. There is also the account of a couple named Dusty and Lori Chandler, who live in a rural area with their three dogs near Carrollton, Georgia, a place covered with thick wooded areas and many ponds, lakes, and streams. The couple claims that for years their property has been visited by a family of Bigfoot, which they often leave food out for and have even tried to communicate with. An interesting detail is that these creatures make beds of packed down brush and pine needles, as well as strange wooden structures reminiscent of teepees or lean-tos on the property, and they also often leave various items as gifts to the family on occasion. In fact, there is a place on the property they call the “gift tree,” onto which is placed a container where the couple will place food items, which the Bigfoot would take and leave various items in return or conversely leave the container sprawled out the ground. K. Steven Monk, director of the Georgia Bigfoot Society, investigated the secluded Chandler property in August of 2012 and concluded: From the numerous tree structures, footprints, bedding areas and trails in the pine straw that I observed on the Chandlers’ property, it is evident that the Sasquatch are there. Also taken into account were the large number of footprints that I observed in the area, some of them fairly fresh. I have photos of some of these things and will be placing them here on the GBS website as I have time to do so. It was undoubtedly only the shyness and prowess of the creatures that prevented me from seeing one. The Chandlers have personally seen them on a number of occasions. There was no doubt in their minds that these creatures exist and are out there on their property in significant numbers.

sasquatchchronicles.com/did-a-bear-help-save-boy-missing-for-nearly-3-days/sasquatch chronicles blog Jan 25 Did a bear help save boy missing for nearly 3 days?Family says 3-year-old Casey Hathaway told them he was protected by a bear. A 3-year-old North Carolina boy, Casey Hathaway, who disappeared for nearly three days before authorities found him last night, is said to be “doing good” as he recovers in the hospital.
“He’s good! He’s up and talking. He’s already asked to watch Netflix,” Casey’s mom, Brittany, said during a Thursday night press conference. “So he’s good, he is good.” According to ABC 11, family members said the boy indicated a bear became his new friend and helped him get through the days and nights while missing. Although it’s unclear whether it’s actually true or his imagination, loved ones are just relieved and happy the boy is alive and safe. As CrimeOnline previously reported, authorities found Casey tangled up in briars and thorn patches, near Toler and Aurora Roads, close to his grandmother’s Craven County home, not far from where he disappeared from on Tuesday afternoon while outside playing. He’s been transported to the Carolina East Medical Center in New Bern for a medical evaluation. Craven County Sheriff Chip Hughes said during Thursday night’s press conference that authorities had to go through some water to get to the boy, who was found in wet clothes with his jacket on, still zipped up, after a nearby neighbor heard him crying out. The sheriff said Casey was asking for his mother when found. Hughes also touched on the possibility that someone may have abducted the boy, then had a change of heart and dropped him off in an area where searchers would find him. The sheriff said he had no evidence that Casey was taken by anyone. “Absolutely not,” Hughes said. “At no time did we see any indications of an abduction and, you know, to take that a little further, that’s why an AMBER Alert was not put out. There were no signs of abduction. Believe me, had there been the slightest, we would have done that.” READ FULL STORY: www.crimeonline.com/2019/01/25/did-a-bear-help-save-boy-missing-for-nearly-3-days-family-says-3-year-old-casey-hathaway-told-them-he-was-protected-by-a-bear/
