Is This A Ghost, “Cloaking Bigfoot,” Or Something Else?

By Dorraine Fisher
Richard Stewart Taylor, a bigfoot researcher from Dallas, Texas got more than he expected as a result of a fairly routine trip to a Bigfoot Conference in Honobia, Oklahoma. Taylor is a semi-retired law enforcement officer and a registered mixed-blood member of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma. He claims to have a spiritual connection with Sasquatch and says they have tried numerous times to “make contact" with him.

At the conference,  he met up with a group of men who were interested in his research. After their conversation, he agreed to take these men to an area near Honobia with which Taylor was very familiar.

I got the following report via Facebook Messenger. The person wishes to remain anonymous, so for this report we will just call him Pete.

This report comes from the Black Mountain area in Harlan county Kentucky. Black Mountain is an excellent area for Bigfoot and is home to numerous Bigfoot reports.

Black Mountain is the highest mountain peak in the Commonwealth of Kentucky with a summit elevation of 4,145 feet  above mean sea level and a top-to-bottom height of over 2,500 feet.

Here is the report:

This report comes from Elliott County Kentucky, the nearest town is the Sandy Hook community. The encounter happened in October of  2018 close to Highway 650, which is known as Wells Creek Road.

A couple were visiting family in Sandy Hook and decided to make a quick run into town. They also noticed they were low on gas. It would be a trip that they would not soon forget.

Here is the report.

Missouri is home to several mysterious mystery creatures and tales. One of the most famous is the  Momo. The Momo is said to be a Bigfoot type of creature that is covered in hair. Momo is short for Missouri Monster and it was first reported in 1971.

I recently received an interesting sighting report from Missouri, could there be a connection to the Momo?

Here is the report and some of the follow up questions.

I was recently contacted on Facebook about a possible Thunderbird sighting near Table Rock, Wyoming. For those who might not be familiar with the term Thunderbird let me give you a little more information.

Thunderbird is a term used in cryptozoology to describe large, bird-like creatures, generally identified with the Thunderbird of Native American tradition. These massive birds are normally described as being black in color and as having a wingspan between 12 and 18 ft. The fossil record does show that giant birds once existed but for the most part the Thunderbird is considered a myth. The only problem is that there continues to be sporadic sighting of this very large bird.

Here is the most recent possible sighting of a Thunderbird.

Back in 2013 there was a noticeable increase in Bigfoot sightings here in my little corner of Southeast Kentucky. It was one of the best years I have ever had in reports and in finding evidence. Now, I really don't know what caused this increase in sightings, but I'm guessing there were many factors that attributed to it.

In fact, I'm still stumbling across reports from back in  2013 that were not submitted to me. Today I want to share one such report that is very close to my location.

A few days ago I got the following Bigfoot sighting report submitted. This report come from Madison county, Illinois. Madison County was established on September 14, 1812 and was named after President James Madison. In the late 19th century, Madison County became an industrial region, and in the 20th century was known first for Graniteware, and later for its steel mills, oil refineries, and other heavy industries. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 741 square miles.

Here is the sighting report.

Still frame from video.

I ran across this video and gave it a watch. This couple is riding a motorcycle and you hear what I think is a dog bark. It sounds like a beagle or basset hound to me. They stop the motorcycle and you can hear other sounds that seem to be coming from the forest. Maybe it is dogs or something else, I really don't know at this point.  As they start going forward again they seem to see something and zoom away. The claim is that there is a rock thrown at them. I slowed the video down and screen shot where the Bigfoot might be, if it is even a Bigfoot at all and not a shadow.

Lets look at the video and then talk more about it.

Artist rendering of report.

A few days ago I got in a interesting report from our local area. I know this area very well and have done quite a bit of Bigfoot hunting in this general area. There are several other reports from this area as well. I personally have found tracks and stick formation in this general vicinity.

It is my understanding that this event has never been reported until now. So, I'm very happy to document this sighting.

Sightings of white Bigfoot is pretty rare, even though there are a number of reports. The following report is of a white Bigfoot charging toward a moving automobile. As you can imagine, the occupants of the vehicle where shocked and scared.

This report comes from Kentucky. It was not sent to me but it was a report I found on the internet.  The reason I'm sharing it is that it is fairly close to me and it is a report of a white bigfoot.

Here is the report.

It is not often we get reports of really aggressive Bigfoot behavior. Yeah we get some, but most of them are things like rock throwing and aggressive sounds. It is not very often that we can read about  Bigfoot running after people.

This following report is not too far from me and is in an area I'm somewhat familiar with, even though I have never been to this particular spot. This report also reminds me of a local report, one in which I know some of the people, where a Bigfoot chased after some boys on a ATVs. You can read that case by Clicking Here.

This case and the local one I just mentioned, make me wonder if it has something to do with the sound of the ATV or if it is just a wrong place wrong time scenario.

Here is the report.

Mock up photo of the report.

In my travels and research I sometimes run across some interesting reports about Bigfoot. The report featured today was one that I was not familiar with and can't recall hearing about it. The case comes from Washington County, Missouri. Missouri is home to a bigfoot like beast known as MOMO. The name Momo is just a short term for Missouri Monster.

It seems that a call came into the sheriffs office a little after 2am that a man had shot a 7 foot tall "hairy beast" 9 times at point blank range.  The call was taken very seriously and about a dozen officers, from two different police departments, were dispatched to an areas known as Hamilton Hollow.

Well, sometimes we get reports that are really hard to believe. I always try to give the witness the benefit of the doubt and assume they are being honest and that something really happened to them. But I also attempt to check the story out and verify it if possible.
With that said, I present to you a report I got in a few days ago. I will give some more information at the end of the post.

Here is the report.

A couple of week ago I was watching some footage of the Japan tsunami. What got me re-interested in the video was the claim that it was footage that had not been released. The video was about 3 or 4 months old but I had not seen it so I watched it. The devastation is just totally unreal.

During the video, there is a segment of what many say is a ghostly figure climbing to higher ground on top of a small building. I have watched many tsunami videos that had odd things in them and this one is very interesting.
   
Just what was this odd figure captured on camera during the Japan Tsunami. Some say it is the spirit of a person kill during the raging waters.

Have a look at the footage and then I will offer some opinions.

Bigfoot Sighting In Central Ohio
An Interview With Cynthia Risser
By Dorraine Fisher
We’re always intrigued by stories of bigfoot sightings by people that didn’t believe the creature existed at all...until it walked out in front of them one day. But is it any less significant to have a sighting when you already believe Bigfoot is real?

Maybe not.

It seems believing in Bigfoot for most of your life and actually seeing one are two entirely different things, as Ohio resident, Cynthia Risser, a long-time believer, would come to realize in her recent encounter in Coshocton County, Ohio.

Recently, a video was posted to youtube of a possible bigfoot walking in the forest. The camera that caught it was one of those that is trained on an eagle's nest. It seems the camera, that is mounted in a tree or something, has caught a dark figure moving in the forest down below. The figure is seen walking along a down tree and then making a small jump before moving off camera. The video has been around for several month, but it seems to be gaining attention.

Some have speculated that this was a bear walking on two feet and then going back down on all fours. But in our enhancement, it is very clear this is not a bear.

Here is my enhancement and opinion about the unknown figure.

Read More

I ran across this story and thought I would share it and give some opinion about it.
The back story is is pretty simple and believable.

Some miners were looking for diamonds and found this mummified creature deep in the mine. Reportedly the unknown creature was found in a sandy layer that dates from the Mesozoic, which would date the creature between 252 and 66 million years.

The creature, as seen in the picture, is described as being small with big teeth. The thought is that the creature became naturally mummified or preserved due to being buried and the surrounding conditions.

According to the report scientist are now trying to find out exactly what this creature might be. Some have suggested that it could be some kind of dinosaur while others have speculated that it some kind of ferret. To me, it could possible be a mink or something from the weasel family. It appears to have a tail.

Of course, this could all very well be nothing more than a hoax but it looks pretty real to me. If I was guessing I would say that it is actually a known animal and that the scientist will be able to find out what it is....but we probably will never hear about it.


Thanks

Some of you may know Leon Drew from his work with our group, The Crypto Crew. Recently Leon was featured on Fox 21 News. In the segments, Leon, tell about his sightings and him and reporter, Abbie Burke, do a little investigation.

Here is the New report with Leon


There was also a sit down interview with Leon and here it is.

It was a good TV spot and it was good hearing Leon tell about his sightings. Good Job Leon! It was good to see the subject treated professionally by the news station and Abbie Burke.

I was just recently sent the above photo by Ryan. It was taken in Maryland on 4/26/16. Some may not know there is a legend of a goatman in Maryland. We also have a very similar legend here in Kentucky. If you have seen the news recently, you might have seen that we had a woman killed while researching the Kentucky Goatman legend. The lady and her boyfriend were from Ohio and were investigating the Kentucky Goatman. You can read that story Here or just search the web for it.

As for this new report from Maryland, I was contacted by Ryan via email. He also sent me two photos that he took. I will include various enhancement during this post. Here is what he told me about his sighting.

"I'm in DC for the GRC summit starting yesterday and was playing tennis Saturday (23rd) morning at Montpelier Park while some friends played golf at Pawtucket Greens.
As we were packing up we saw something on the forest bordering the park. As I took out my camera phone it came up onto two feet and I realized it was a goat. I told some people back in DC about a goat waking on two legs and they said it was some old Maryland Goatman legend.
I called WBAL in Baltimore and talked to someone about it but I don't think they believe me. They think it's a bear holding a freshly killed goat. They ran the story yesterday concluding that but I think there's more to it. I started looking into cryptozoology and found your site so I'm sending them to you."

Here is a link to the short report done by WBAL - you can view it Here

Here is a brief overview of the Maryland Goatman Legend:

According to urban legend, the Goatman is an axe-wielding half-animal, half-man creature that was once a scientist who worked in the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center. The tale holds that he was experimenting on goats, the experiment went awry, and he began attacking cars with an axe, roaming the back roads of Beltsville, Maryland. A variation of the legend tells of Goatman as an old hermit who lives in the woods, seen walking alone at night along Fletchertown Road.
The story seems to originate with an alleged sighting in 1957. The Goatman is also said to have murdered a number of hikers in 1962.

I was able to follow up with Ryan about his sighting and pictures.
I ask him about the height of the creature, and how long he seen it, here was his reply.

"I watched it standing for a few moments and then it came down on all fours and disappeared into thick forest. This photo was taken with my phone zoomed all the way in and, if I had to guess, I was about 30 yards away. It stood probably about 7 feet tall when it was on two feet. WBAL determined it was a bear with a goat in its jaws but that wasn't how I perceived it."


Here is another photo that Ryan took.

Here is a zoom on the figure, you can clearly see the horns and the goat looking head.


 Now, I can't see this being a bear with a goat's head in its mouth. I can't see this as just being a goat standing on it's back legs. The witness said it would about 7 foot tall, no goat standing on it's back legs would be that tall.

So, we are left with the possibility that this IS a Goatman. I will be the first to admit that I'm just not sure what this is but it does not appear to be just a bear or just a goat.

I also did a short video on this image, but all of the information and more is covered here in this post. If you would still like to watch the video, you can do so at this link. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTucQwHJIuc


Now, I have to ask ...if anyone has more information about this recent sighting of a possible goatman or if you have also seen it in this area, please contact me.


UPDATE - I guess I should have also included the following information but it slipped my mind. I ran these two photos on some software that detects edited images. There was no obvious signs of anything like Photoshop. Here is some of the Meta Data - size 4032 x 3024, 72 dpi. I also ran an error level analysis and it didn't reveal any thing unusual. Please keep in mind that many of these test are inconclusive and that photoshop is sometimes difficult to detect.  I'm not saying this is or isn't an altered image, I'm just saying I didn't find anything that suggest it was altered. The witness has been very open to any questions that I have ask him and seems to be just looking for answers.

UPDATE 2 - So, after reading this report JR, who lives near the reported area, thought he would go out and see if he could find the exact location this picture was taken at. Here is what JR report to me.
"I went to the park that this guy talked about and walked completely around the 3 wooded sides and nowhere do I see the 2 trees that are on the ground where this goatman was. I walked it twice. I think I need more info from the guy who took the pic. ....... The only thing I can say is I would probably have to talk with the guy or him email a pic of the park with the location marked of where he saw it. I did see one print in the mud outside of the wooded area about 12-13" long and took a pic of it.



It was about an 1" deep but it is muddy and I could not see any toes on this print....."

I ask JR if there was a chance the downed trees had been moved, here is his reply: "I don't think any trees were moved. I would really like if u could get this guy to email me or find out where he was in the parking lot when he took the pic. It appears to me in the Montpelier park the only place he could have been 30 yards from the animal would have been near the entrance to the park. Ask him if this is where he was parked. Also if u would confirm that he was at that park and not at the tennis courts at the golf course. I will go back. By the way I don't know if u saw where I posted it but my wife grew up in this area and spent all her life there. She said when she was a kid there were reports of a goatman she remembered and it scratched a car all up. That was over 50 years ago though. "

So, I email Ryan, the man who took the picture, and as him for more information on the exact location he took the picture. Here was Ryan's reply: "Yes, I took it while we were leaving. It was a ways back so I walked into the woods a bit to take the photo. I don't live in Maryland, I was there for a risk assessment conference. Next time I'm in that area of gladly meet someone and show them the exact location."

Now, hopefully, the next time Ryan is in the area we can have JR meet up with him and they can go to the exact spot where the pictures were taken. I thank both Ryan and JR for their help and information on this case. Maybe we can find more clues and answers in the weeks to come.

-End Update 2 -


Thanks

mock up image used for reference.

On or around January 14,2016 at around 7:15 am a man named Chris was taking his daughter to the bus stop when he looked in his rear view on the way out of his driveway and seen what he thought may have been a bear standing on two legs watching them go down the driveway. He stated that there had been bear there before because they live off the grid that sometimes they store food items outdoors.

After speaking to me he was then sure he had seen a bigfoot instead since it had longer legs and much more size than a black bear.
 
Although he had seen it in the mirror he was sure about it now. Since this encounter they hear occasional noises not of the norm and have been smelling a sulfur/ wet animal odor from time to time. Area near the sighting, so as not to pinpoint his home.
2184-2514 Lees creek road, Myrtle creek, Oregon 97457.
Gps 43.1326425,-123.1493605

Corinna and I have explored this area quite a few times with one actual sighting in 2004 and juvenile tracks another time. Chris lives on the same road as we do but a few more miles deeper in the forest. This story will be continued as we establish a better relationship with Chris and his daughter.

The investigation is ongoing, look for an update in the future.
