Supernatural Encounter After Storm?

I got the following report in a couple of weeks ago. The report was submitted anomalously with no contact information or even the person's name. You may be wondering why even share it but there are some elements in the report that are interesting and that have been reported in the past.

The event, best I can pin down, happened after what is known as a microburst event. A microburst is a localized column of sinking air, downdraft, within a thunderstorm. These events can cause extensive damage and  pose a threat to life and property.

Here is the report

Huge Bigfoot Track

I recently went into an area where I have been attempting gifting for several months. This is an area that I know for a fact bigfoot comes to often. I had got a slightly later start than usual but it was still early in the morning. It felt nice and cool but got warm as the day lingered on.

I made my way to the gifting area to see what was missing or if anything was different. My normal routine is to check the gifting spot and leave out new items. While there I always take pictures and videos. Most of these have not been shared (yet) but a couple are available in the Members Only section of our Youtube channel.

Normally after I check the gifting area, I scout around to see if there are any new stick formations or tracks. While I didn't find any stick structures I did find some very large bigfoot tracks.

Here is the short video of the tracks

Bigfoot Report from Trigg County
 
I got this report in a few days ago and I wanted to share it. It has taken me a little time to get to it as I have been really busy. What is really interesting is that this is near the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area.  A famous locations with a storied history of unusual events.

Here is the report.

Possible Bigfoot Howls or Screams From Douglas County, OR

The following howls or screams were recorded in Sutherlin Oregon. Sutherlin is a town in Douglas County. The sounds were recorded on 10/03/20 at around 10 pm just past Ford's pond. According to the witness the screams continued for about 10 minutes.

The witness, Anthony, was outside his home at around 10pm when he started hearing these mysterious screams. He was able to use his cell phone to record a video, which captured the sounds. The witness also thought he heard some grunting sounds too but didn’t catch them on camera.

The witness shared what he had just recorded with his mother. She said "I have never heard anything like it and I’ve been hunting these hills my entire life. It was not any known animal I’ve ever heard.
The closest I’ve heard is the death moan of a bear, But this was different."

I have enhanced the sound by boosting the audio. Here is the video.

Just got in a report, that I'm assuming has never been reported until now, of some howls from Letcher county Kentucky. This is an area that is not very far from me.

Of course Letcher county has a lot of forest area and is adjacent to Harlan county. It is idea habitat for a creature such as Bigfoot.

Over the years I have taken in numerous Bigfoot reports from Letcher county and have, in times past, spent some time in that area of Kentucky.

Here is the report:

Today I was sent a private message from a friend. He had captured some strange sounds in the woods near his home. The recording was at night, he had stepped out for a cigarette when he heard these strange sounds. He wanted my opinion of what I thought it was. I don't have permission to share his audio but it got me to thinking about the many strange sounds we hear in the woods.

There are many strange sounds that can happen in the forest. Even if you are a seasoned outdoors person, some of these sounds may make you wonder just what in the world is producing the noise.

Lets looks at some possible sources for these odd sounds.

Daytime Howls Recorded in Iowa!

Bigfoot researchers, Corey and Tye, have been getting a lot of recordings of possible howls. The following audio is one of the best ones so far. It was recorded in April 2016. I have attempted to do some enhancement work on the Audio. The only issue with the recording was the dreaded wind noise. So, to combat some of this I focused on the howls with the least amount of wind noise.
The howls went on for well over 2 minutes.

Here is my attempt at enhancing the audio.

Over the years, I have taken in many reports of deer hunters encountering Bigfoot. This could probably stem from the fact that both hunters, and bigfoot, are stalking the same prey. This encounter occurred in Lenawee County, Michigan. Lenawee County is in the southeaster part of Michigan.


Here is a report I recently got in from Craig.

- Start Report-


Name: Craig *****

Email Address:
On file

State: MI

County:
Lenawee

Date of Sighting:
2006

Time of Day:  before dark

Nearest Town: Tecumseh (Tom - Tecumseh is a small city in Lenawee County. It is about 60 miles from Detroit and a 40 miles from Toledo, Ohio.)

Length of Sighting: Unsure

How many Witnesses: 1

Any Photos/Videos:
No

Describe sighting in detail:
I was watching 3 deer at about 200 Yds away, while bow hunting. When I began to hear a knocking sound coming from the woods very close to the deer.  The knocking came closer and it was an unmistakable wood on wood sound that was loud. At about 80 Yds away a branch was broken that immediately had me very nervous as it was very loud.
The knocking kept coming closer with no other sounds and it was calm and quiet that day.  It came all the way to within 35 yds or so and the knocking was all I heard. If it came any closer it would have to show itself but never did.

After a few knocks at close range my mind was racing as I had never heard of this behavior by anything and absolutely did not believe in Bigfoot, until that day. I heard a slight rustling of the leaves as apparently it headed back into the woods deeper but not without letting out a crazy scream/growl/yell that was terrifying.
That was all I could take and jumped from my tree stand (about 10 ft) and hustled to my truck without running, because I was thinking it might attack as I've heard that you don't run from a predator.  It took 2 hands to start my truck since my hands were shaking so bad. This happened 3 miles from my house and I do hear things occasionally but nothing like that day. I've never gone to that spot again, and never will.

- End Report -

Thanks goes to Craig for sharing his encounter with all of us. Even though this might have been a scary experience, it was also an eye opening one for Craig. Most of us have been told, that Bigfoot is not real, but for those of us who have seen and/or heard it, we have no doubts about bigfoot being real. Just be careful when jumping out of a tree stand.



Thanks

A country road in WV
West Virginia is a state located in the Appalachian region of the Southern United States. It is bordered by Virginia to the southeast, Kentucky to the southwest.West Virginia has a landscape much like my state of Kentucky. It is an ideal area for bigfoot. Meadow Bridge, WV is much like the small area I live in. It was or is a coal town that has only a handful of people living in it. These types of areas seem to provide a good place for bigfoot to live.

The following report was sent in to me from David.

Here is the report.

-Start Report-

Name: David ****

Email Address: On File

State: West Virginia

County: Fayette

Date of Sighting: 2009-2013

Time of Day:
Night

Nearest Town: Meadow Bridge, WV

Length of Sighting: Most nights from 2009-2013

How many Witnesses: 4 family members

Any Photos/Videos: no

Describe sighting in detail: 


NIGHT WATCHER

In 2009, my mother, father, brother, and I moved from NC to a cottage in the mountains of WV, where we are originally from. There were no street lights and very few neighbors as the house was very secluded. Some late evenings we could look across a gravel road near our house and see a very tall figure standing under a tree, just staring at our house. Then late one night my mother had the bathroom window open, looking out to see if she could spot any deer or other wildlife. There was a large flat rock up from our house. It had been placed on its side as a marker, it stood about 4 ½ feet tall. On the other side my mother could see a pair of bright red eyes several feet above the rock.

As she watched trying to figure out what she was seeing, a dark figure stepped out from behind the rock and started walking towards the house. My mother shut the window quickly and moved into another part of the house. In the 4 years we lived there, we heard tree knocks and packs of coyotes howling.


-End Report-

First, a big thanks to David for submitting his report, and second...I have read various other reports of bigfoot just standing and watching people and/or houses. I wonder if this behavior is just a curiosity factor or there is some other reasons.  I know around here sometimes people throw out leftovers and various animals will eat it, I wonder if this is sometimes in play when bigfoot are seen watching a house. It could be an easy way for a bigfoot to get a meal.



Thanks

Unknown Howls Recorded in Iowa

Recently, the bigfoot research duo of Corey and Tye have been getting a lot of activity. We recently featured some audio the team captured of a scream. What exactly made the scream is yet to be known.
Now them has captured a series of howls. Again, not sure what is making these howls but they are interesting.

Here is a short video featuring some enhanced audio of the unknown howls.

Unknown Howl - Kenton County Kentucky

I got this report in a couple days ago of two people who heard a very disturbing howl. The report is very detailed, I hope you take the time to read it over.

- Start Report -

Name: Russell ****

Email Address: On File

State: Kentucky

County: Kenton

Date of Sighting: Early November of 2014

Time of Day: 8:00 AM

Nearest Town: Covington

Length of Sighting: 25 Seconds

How many Witnesses: Two

Any Photos/Videos:
No

Describe sighting in detail:
It was opening day of the Kentucky modern firearms season and I had to work that weekend. I went outside of the building for a smoking break and was chatting with a co-worker about nothing in particular. I am a nurse and my friend is a deputy Jailer. The sun was up and it was a calm sunny morning, no wind and a really nice day. I was wishing I was in the deerstand. Anyway, we were chatting when a sound only I can describe as a scream and roar started and lasted for a good 25 seconds. Keep in mind that there are woods in back of the building that I would say run approximately three miles. The woods are very mature with hardwoods and thick cedars and brush.

The sound startled both of us. I am originally from Utah and have spent countless hours hunting, camping, and fishing in the Wasatch and Uintah mountains and have never heard a sound like this. I have hunted, camped and fished in the state of Kentucky for twenty plus years and have never heard this sound before. This scream was a cross between an elephant in a rage, and a lion roaring. This scream launched and then climbed in pitch then came back down with the massive roar. We stood there in complete awe of the scream we heard. This came off a very steep hill and you could tell it was probably a quarter to a half mile away. The lung capacity it would have taken to do this is beyond understanding. The sound was indescribable and thunderous.I looked at my co-worker and said. "Dont say anything, and on the count of three, tell me what you think that was." I counted to three and he said "Bigfoot." And I said "Sasaquatch." We both had chills.

We stayed out there longer than usual to listen longer, but it did not do it again.My co-worker stated he also has spent alot of hours in the woods and has never heard anything even close to that roar. I have heard fox, coyote etc make some crazy sounds, but that was no fox or coyote. I always carry firearms when camping or hiking or riding my ATV. Whatever this was, would have without a doubt ran me out of the woods without a second thought. This was way too long, loud and creepy to really even describe. I thought about this incident for a couple weeks and was perplexed about it. I kept thinking about why this thing would roar like that on a quiet sunny windless day. I thought about it and the only thing I can come up with is that maybe it had run into a hunter or something and was trying to get the hunter out of the woods. If that were true, I would have loved to have talked to him, if that were the case, this man would have been in total fear for his life. because I would have been frozen in fear, high powered rifle or not!

After a couple weeks, I decided to report this anonymously to the BFRO online. I received a call from an investigator and told her of our encounter. At the end of the conversation, she told me that a sighting had occurred about a mile away, and a homeowner had called in a report of a "Hairy creature" walking on a wooded hillside behind his home, and that this had occurred about a week and a half prior to my incident. All I can say is that there is something up there. I will always be paying attention while in the woods.This has remained in the back of my mind, and I don't joke about these things any longer. When this happens to you, it will change your perceptions, trust me.

- End Report -

Now, that is very interesting and the idea that bigfoot was trying to scare off a hunter seems very plausible. While this general area would seem fairly populated, there are some pretty large wooded areas as well.
A big thanks to Russell for sharing his experience with us.


Thanks

The Crypto Files - Bigfoot Howl? (Ep5)

I got the following audio file from AP (Changed to protect identity) of an unknown howl. It was recorded in Whitley County, Kentucky. I have enhanced the audio and isolated the target sound.
More information is below the video.

Here is another episode of The Crypto Files featuring the audio that was send-in.

Wednesday, January 27, 2016

Still frame from the video. Is this a Bigfoot?
Now, I do not know if this is a Bigfoot or not, but the video is interesting. The channel it comes from is suspect to me. It was supposedly shot in Utah.

Here is what the description says about the clip.

"Clip Description: Two fishermen brothers are out in the woods by the creek catching fish one day and they hear what sounds like an loud roar and breaking trees. They leave right away thinking its a bear. The next day they go back to investigate and see what it was that made that sound and to see if any tracks were left in the snow...What they capture on film is very creepy!!"

Here is the video.

It seems that the description is not accurate to the video. The two brothers don't say anything about hearing a "loud roar" or "breaking trees", but state they discovered the tracks. But the video is interesting and what ever this is appears to be crouched down on the balls of it's feet.

I have attempted to zoom in on the figure more.


Here is the same still frame grab with more enhancement.


I guess in the end we just can't say for sure if it is a real bigfoot or just a guy in a suit but at least it is a pretty interesting video. You can see the figure swaying back and forth a little. 


Thanks
~Tom~

Something in the woods
Running time: 90 minutes
Directed by Tony Gibson &  David D Ford

I recently purchased this movie, not knowing a whole lot about it. But it was Bigfoot related and the trailer seemed pretty good, so why not. I really didn't know what to expect and figured it was probably a low budget film, which is not an issue for me, so I took some time to watch it this morning. In short, a family discovers they have Bigfoot on their property and feel threatened when the Bigfoot comes up to the house. The father, takes steps to protect his family. 

Being a Bigfoot researcher and having been around Bigfoot on several occasions, I was somewhat amazed at how this film was able to capture the feeling of what a real Bigfoot sighting feels like. It didn't take long, about 30 minutes into the film, to tell that the people involved in this film did their homework. That is only one of the things that sets this Bigfoot film apart from many other Bigfoot films. Now, that may not mean a lot to people who do not know about the history of Bigfoot, or to non researchers or to people who have never had an encounter.  Even if you are not a Bigfoot enthusiast or have never had an encounter, the film is still very entertaining. But for people who already have good knowledge about the subject of Bigfoot, you will be blown away and very happy.

Not actual photo, used for reference (Photo Credit: BFRO.net)
While posting the Bigfoot howls from Kentucky, I also did some research into the area for sighting reports.  The following report is the work of BFRO.net . The report is old but in the same general area as the unknown howls.

- Start Report -

YEAR: 1984
SEASON: Winter
MONTH: January
STATE: Kentucky
COUNTY: Breathitt County
LOCATION DETAILS: Turn off highway 15 toward Lost Creek about 8 miles.
NEAREST TOWN: Jackson
NEAREST ROAD: not sure of the number it ran through lost creek
OBSERVED: As a small child i grew up in south eastern kentucky. Each winter the creek that ran next to our home would freeze over and we would skate on a area we had built a crude dam on. One morning after the creek had frozen back hard after partly thawing my sister and i went to play on the ice. When we arived we noticed that what apeared to be a small bare footed child had walked across the ice before it had fully frozen. The track had a definite form a heel, front pad and five toes .It had crossed a distance of about twenty feet in six steps went up a steep bank slipped down and went on up the bank. No other prints were ever seen and i have never heard of any other encounters in that area. The print was about eight inchs long and three or four inches wide.

ALSO NOTICED: in this area of kentucky there is a large amount of heavily wooded areas thousands of acres with little to no human contact with lots of reclaimed areas with fruit trees turnips and other folage and numerus abandoned mines some well over 100 years old the area of big branch is probably 1000 acres with only a few weekend atv riders ever on them which is heavily wooded and uninhabitited

OTHER WITNESSES: my sister just going to play on the ice

OTHER STORIES: My mother once told us a story of where she lived about 15 miles from there in the big branch area when she was a child and was staying with her grandmother when at night her grandmother would place a bucket with scraps from dinner on the back porch and she thought this was strange that she didnt feed them to the hogs they kept when she asked her grandmother why she did that she told her that was for her hairy man thinking it was only a story to keep the kids in the house at night they decided to stay up to see and she said they witnessed a man covered in brown hair come down from the hill and take the bucket sit down next to the well box only a few yards from the house and it ate the food placed the bucket back on the porch and disapeared back int othe woods
TIME AND CONDITIONS: early morning and very cold below freezing with a light snow
ENVIRONMENT: heavily wooded long hollow at that time only dirt road very few familys on that hollow high applacine moutains.


Follow-up investigation report:
After speaking with the witness, the following information can be added to the report.

The witness stated that they were perfectly preserved human-like footprints and added that the possibility of a human leaving them was extremely low because of sparse population and freezing weather. The prints had been made overnight when something walked through the slush ice that had formed the day before from a combination of thawing and precipitation. The toes were quite distinct and eliminated the possibility of shoe prints in the opinion of the witness. The estimated depth of the print in the ice was just over one inch.

I discussed the possibility of talking with his mother about the content of the report in the other stories section. The timing for speaking with her currently is not good because of a family issue, but I do hope to get that opportunity in a few months.


- End Report -

But wait....there's more! I recently talked with Charlie Raymond from Kentucky Bigfoot Research Organization and he was telling me about a report he was following up on a few days ago. Charlie's report was also in Breathitt County and it contain possible Bigfoot activity dating back several years. Plus, it also had very recent activity. The KBRO has a great database of Kentucky Bigfoot sightings.

So, it appears that Breathitt county has not only a history of Bigfoot activity, but it is still happening.

A big thanks to the BRFO for having a great database of sighting reports.


Thanks

Breathitt County, Kentucky

Possible Bigfoot Howls From Kentucky

A few days ago, I was presented with a very interesting video that contained some unusual-sounding howls in it. The video was recorded early in the morning at 7:35am in Breathitt county, Kentucky. It was recorded by a man I will only identify as D.J.
Upon hearing the sounds, I started to pursue getting permission to enhance and use it. Once I got the go-ahead to fiddle with the clip, I dove right in.

Here is the original clip and some enhancements.
