Normally this time of year I don't get a chance to get out in the woods due to the weather being harsh. I don't particularly like the cold temperatures anymore. But recently we have had some unusually warm days and I was able to spend a few hours out in the mountains.
The area I chose to go into is one that I have researched for years with good results. It had been roughly a month since I had been in this particular area. I was hopeful that I could find something but it had rained hard the previous night.
October 25, 1973 - The most puzzling and most detailed encounters.
Stan Gordon became involved n the aftermath of this encounter. A State Trooper at Uniontown called him, telling him of the combination UFO landing/creature sighting. Gordon and members from the Study Group (Dennis Smeltzer, Fred Pitt, David Smith, George Lutz) arrived at the scene sometime between 1 and 1:30 am. Here is the story they were told:
The main witness, Steve Palmer, told them that around 9 pm he saw a UFO land in a pasture on his father's farm. The UFO was described as a large red ball. In all there were 15 witnesses by the time the whole thing ended. After seeing this red ball land, Palmer got a 30.06 rifle and with two neighbor boys drove towards the area. They then parked and approached closer on foot.
One of the most puzzling and also annoying encounters in the bigfoot world involves the UFO/Bigfoot sightings in Pennsylvania. Some of those from the "Woo" Faction embrace the incidents as part of their proof; while the Flesh and Blooders, unable to salvage much from the experiences, tend to dismiss them.
Hundreds of people reported encounters from around 1968, with 1973 bringing an increase in reports. One of the things that make the Flesh and Blooders grind their teeth were the descriptions of the creatures, which included pointed ears high at the top of the head, with the head being wide and flat on top. Long, pointed fangs were reported. Arms were said to hang below the knees and they had large brightly glowing eyes.
How different the history of Bigfoot would be if William Roe had only owned or borrowed a movie camera back in 1955.
Roe was working on a highway near the small town of Tete Jaune Cache in British Columbia, about 80 miles west of Jasper, Alberta. In October he decided to climb five miles up Mica Mountain to where an old abandoned mine was located. He reached the mine around 3 pm after an easy climb. Coming out of some brush into a clearing, he was surprised to see what he took for a grizzly bear on the other side of the clearing.
Today I want to take just a little time and post about this upcoming film. This film is the long overdue sequel to the original Bigfoot Witness.
In November I made the official announcement about the film on my company website, Zombie Media Publishing. But there is much more to the story.
This film has been in the works for probably 3 or 4 years. I was working on this, in the very early stages, when I started pumping out the paranormal documentaries. We were filming almost every week and in between times, I was editing the film.
A popular theory and common misconception among some in the bigfoot community is that another name for bigfoot or sasquatch is Wendigo. Let's throw that idea away and put the Wendigo back where he belongs in his own category.
The Wendigo is a man-eating monster or evil spirit in the legends of the Algonquin people who live along the Atlantic Coast and the Great Lakes in both Canada and the United States. The creature may appear either as a monster with some characteristics of a human, or as an evil spirit who has possessed a human being.
Descriptions of the monster may vary, but common traits to all is that it is a "malevolent, cannibalistic, supernatural being". It is not described as a hair covered giant.
We recently got in a new UFO sighting report from the Rose Hill, VA area. Rose Hill is a community located in Lee County, VA. The Rose Hill community is home to the Ely Mound. Ely Mound is a historic burial mound that is considered the best-preserved Mississippian culture site in
Virginia. The mound dates to the Late Woodland-Mississippian Period (AD
1200-1650), during which more complex societies and practices evolved,
including chiefdoms and religious ceremonies.
There have long been rumors of a secret, hidden military base in this area, and over the years there have been many UFO reports.
What follows is the most recent report, sent in via email, along with a short video.
There are so many rumors and stories lately of this 'big, bad bigfoot': Cannibal, kidnapper, man-hater. I'd like to share some stories of a different kind of creature. One just a little more believable, in my opinion.
It was summer, 1963. A man went out hunting for deer near Mt. Shasta. He had gone alone and so had no one with him when he fell and badly injured his leg. He finally was able to get to his feet, but could barely hobble. He was worried as he knew how long of a journey he had to get to where he could find some help.
"I don't care if you believe me or not." Witness to the creature called Dogman, or Werewolf. In the autumn of 2013, the witness had not only one encounter but had a second sighting of an unusual, frightening being.
The witness was working night shifts at the time which meant he had to travel the dark roads in the sighting area on a regular basis. One night as he was traveling down Johnson Road, which borders Silver Creek Metro Park, he abruptly stopped his car as two deer raced across the road heading south. What he saw pursuing them was attention-grabbing.
"I would place them somewhere between 6'6" and 7' tall. They chased the two deer (which were both smaller, by the way) out across the street and into the woods. They ran [in formation] . . . one in front, two behind, kind of next to each other. They were roughly 30-40 yards behind the deer. They were bipedal, very muscular, and fast; lightning fast. It all happened in just a few seconds. I couldn't describe any features, unfortunately; I'm assuming it was either a new moon or cloudy because it was very dark, but they were definitely a dark color . . . maybe a chocolate brown or a black color."
He was questioned if perhaps what he saw was a bigfoot. There are many reported sightings of them in Ohio. Said the witness : "They say that bigfoot has long arms that swing when it runs, and it runs like a human. Whatever these were, they weren't bigfoot. I can't describe how they moved, but they didn't move like a person."
It was only a couple of weeks later when the witness was again heading home on Johnson Road. As he was driving past a cornfield, something ran out in front of his car.
"The fields had full-grown cornstalks, but I don't know the exact heights only that the cornstalks were taller than me by a head and I'm 6 feet tall. This time, [my sighting of two creatures] was a quick flash because there was no open land to it. They basically leaped the road as they broke the corn and landed about 10-15 feet into the field on the other side and kept running. This time, the pair that I saw in the moonlight, the first was black and the second was black with white or silver on its chest and back . . . Since the first three I saw were all a solid color, that means there must be at least four different creatures."

"I'll spark the thought; what you do with it is up to you."
"Those that know, need no further proof. Those that don't, should not demand it from others, but seek it for themselves."

very first encounter with Bigfoot.
In August of this year (2018) a post was shared by Kimberly Mills Parker called : The Elliot Lake Ape-Men. In the article the author relates stories from her grandpa.
The story can get confusing, so will list the "cast" and identification here.
The "he" in the story is her grandpa. He is one of the sons in the story. The father is the author's Great grandfather and the father of her "grandpa". Two brothers in the encounter are her great uncles [perhaps the George and Gord mentioned later by the author.] Sister listed would be the author's great aunt and her grandpa's sister.
A few days ago a friend contacted me via Facebook and wanted to report what he and his wife saw in the sky over Harlan County. Over the years there has been numerous reports of unknown objects in this general area.
What follows is this detailed description, along with a follow up question.
