In this preview episode, you’ll hear a glimpse into several encounters shared inside an episdoe just for the Bigfoot Society Members community.

A woman from the Hudson Valley in New York describes how her curiosity about strange tree structures and unusual signs in the woods led to a series of unsettling discoveries. What began as a winter outing to investigate possible activity soon turned into something far more personal as strange sounds, unexplained footprints, and a photograph taken in the woods revealed that something large had been nearby.

Over time the activity followed her closer to home. Late-night wood knocks, an unexpected sighting near her house, and other unexplained events left her with the growing sense that these beings were aware of her presence.You’ll also hear a brief look at encounters from Pennsylvania and Vermont, including a childhood sighting where a towering figure stepped into the road and stared into a car, and a dedicated night hiker who realized something large was moving through the forest alongside him in the darkness.These are only a few moments from a much longer conversation filled with details, locations, and experiences shared by the witnesses themselves.

11
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:39.840
I saw something move and it was in a spider

12
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:47.079
carale position. He was huge, and I saw the shoulders,

13
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:49.840
the shoulders, and I saw the hair, but it was

14
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:53.679
through the lens. Had I not looked through the lens,

15
00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:55.840
it would have looked like a giant rock to me,

16
00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:00.719
like a grey rock, like a granite, right. But because

17
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:04.120
he moved, I caught the image and I got a

18
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:06.640
little startled. I'm like, let me take it now, and

19
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:08.959
I clicked on it and then I clicked out o

20
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:12.239
some other spots that look like rocks, and then I

21
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:15.000
took the camera. I went back into the car, I

22
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:18.480
tak its a matter less than a minute. I got

23
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:24.079
back in the car and decided to go home. A

24
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.439
police officer stopped me and he says, oh, was there

25
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:30.799
something wrong. I said no, I stopped to take pictures.

26
00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:34.319
I came out to take pictures of the of in

27
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:36.920
the rain because you get better photos. And I showed

28
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:40.400
him my camera. He says, oh, okay, I just want

29
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:41.840
to let you know because I didn't want you to

30
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:44.200
stop there and it's a busy road and somebody could

31
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.200
have hit you. I'm like, okay, I'm fine, I'm going

32
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:48.959
home now. Okay, great, So I get home. I didn't

33
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:54.840
even look at the camera or the chip for two weeks.

34
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:57.680
It's just like it just almost like, nah, it must

35
00:01:57.719 --> 00:01:59.480
have been a rock. I must have been imagining it.

36
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:05.040
So about two weeks later, ten days, I go into

37
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:07.760
I said, I forgot to do those pictures. And I

38
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:09.840
put it in my computer and I blow it up

39
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:15.560
and I see a face, shoulders and I said, I

40
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.280
don't know, maybe it's my eye. I send it to

41
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:22.280
my friend Bebby. She sends it to someone in Washington

42
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:25.240
and they get back to her and like, well it's authentic.

43
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:30.800
It's not docked. It's not Ai. And she gets back

44
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:32.840
to me. She tells me he caught the real thing.

45
00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.719
I said, yo, I said, I said, it wasn't that far.

46
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.719
She goes, you know, be careful. They follow you home.

47
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:43.479
I'm like, oh great. About a couple of weeks later,

48
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:50.240
it's spring now May. It's raining at nighttime, but you

49
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.439
can hear the sounds of the frogs because it's springtime

50
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:56.560
and they're starting to come out of the ground. And

51
00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:00.439
I opened the window because it was a little warm

52
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:04.719
that night, and I hear the frogs. There was two three,

53
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:10.520
two thirty in the morning, and I hear a whack, whack, whack,

54
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:16.240
three sounds of wood knocks, and I hear a scream

55
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:19.680
in the distance, almost like they were hunting and they

56
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:23.520
caught something when they found something, And I'm like, what

57
00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:27.639
was that? And I'm listening very intently. Were very quiet,

58
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:31.759
and it turns out the answer was two more knock

59
00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:37.120
wood knocks, but right next to my house. And I'm like,

60
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:43.159
oh boy. So I'm like, they're here here, What do

61
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:43.439
I do?

62
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:44.080
Where do I do?

63
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:49.240
Nothing? I just stayed very still and it didn't make

64
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.400
another sound or anything, but all of a sudden After that,

65
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:57.280
it was completely quiet. I didn't hear anything. I went

66
00:03:57.319 --> 00:03:59.400
outside to look at all my dreams because I didn't

67
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.879
know how they ate the wood knocks. There were no

68
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.840
dents on the trees, there were no chips off the trees,

69
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:08.919
so I don't know exactly how they did it. I

70
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:12.400
hear from time to time that it's not just wood knocks,

71
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:17.199
it's actually their chests. They made this doune from the chest.

72
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:21.920
I said, okay, that's possible. Maybe, I don't know. Another

73
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:27.920
time we got three encounters. Now. Another time, I'm sitting down.

74
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:33.079
It's like heading towards summer, and I'm painting glasses. I

75
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:37.519
did glass painting and making jewelry whatever, a side job

76
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:40.839
that I did creatively. And I'm sitting at the dining

77
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:44.959
room table and I have a sliding glass store. And

78
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:49.199
it actually it was it was I'm sorry. It was

79
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:53.199
winter and I can't recall it. It was the same

80
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:55.920
year or the next year, but it was winter and

81
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:58.600
there was still melting snow, so I knew that the

82
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:01.439
birds were hungry. So I put out like old Italian

83
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.040
bread and I cut it up into blocks and I

84
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.560
put it out on a deck. I said, well, maybe

85
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:13.720
something will eat it. Well, sure enough. About fifteen minutes later,

86
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:18.920
a raven lands, and I'm like, wow, a raven. I

87
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:23.040
never seen a raven. I'm thinking of her Hitchcock movies.

88
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:26.839
And I see this raven and it's interested in the bread.

89
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:29.519
So I closed the blinds so I wouldn't frighten it,

90
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.800
because it was very aware that I was watching it.

91
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:35.959
I closed the blinds. Okay. I go on to my

92
00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:39.600
glass painting. About twenty minutes later, I take a peek

93
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:42.360
and all the bread is gone. I said, wow, that

94
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:44.199
was a lot of bread for one bird, but maybe

95
00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:47.600
it was hungry. I opened back the blind I go

96
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.439
to turn around and I tell my friend. I text

97
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:55.480
my friend Debbie. Debbie, there was a you know, a

98
00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:59.319
raven here. Black raven was beautiful, shiny coat and everything.

99
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.639
She says, oh, be careful, be careful. I said, why.

100
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:07.480
And it and it's like came out of the woods

101
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:12.000
and just stopped there and just looked at us and

102
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.639
my grand like, I said, my grandfather had to step

103
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:19.360
on the brakes. And I saw it plainly like with

104
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:21.959
with his face like like a tanish color, I said,

105
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:29.800
and low brownish dirty hair, you know, like it was

106
00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:36.439
dark like dark brown, like a musky looking creepy you

107
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:38.759
know what I mean. And then when I said I

108
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:41.800
got older, I looked it up and it's like, my, uh,

109
00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:43.040
the bigfoot.

110
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:47.600
That's the only thing I can describe it of sure?

111
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:50.560
Sure? How how close did it get to you? When

112
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:52.120
it was looking in the window.

113
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:58.079
Like I said, it was like, you know the front window. Uh,

114
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:03.439
it maybe about we like said, if we almost hit it.

115
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:07.800
If my pappy didn't stop to slam on their brakes,

116
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:09.639
we would.

117
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:09.839
Have hit it.

118
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:15.439
So maybe a foot in front of us. Wow, not close?

119
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:21.360
It was close, man, goodness, I remember I made.

120
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:22.959
Yeah.

121
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:24.519
I can't imagine that.

122
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:26.519
And how did you deal with that?

123
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:27.800
Growing up? After that?

124
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.040
I've had a lot of questions, but my grandfather wouldn't

125
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:35.839
talk about it. I don't know why I don't.

126
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:39.560
I mean, I don't know if you.

127
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:43.680
Didn't, like I want to believe it, or want to

128
00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:49.959
scare me and my cousin. I don't know. But I

129
00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:54.000
looked it up afterwards, like, you know, what is this,

130
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:57.439
And the best of my knowledge, it's the big foot

131
00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:01.399
of what pictures I saw. I mean, there's many different

132
00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:05.040
types of big foots, you know, I mean, different size

133
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:06.480
is a different shaete, you know what I mean?

134
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:07.879
Sure?

135
00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:11.720
And uh, this was like I would say seven foot

136
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:14.600
tall or eight foot you know what I mean. It

137
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:18.959
was it was tall like he had his car was

138
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:26.360
it was uh in this like sixties or seventies. Uh,

139
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:32.440
oh man, it wasn't I forget the name of Oh yeah,

140
00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:36.919
it was a Plymouth, an old Plymouth. Okay, one of

141
00:08:36.960 --> 00:08:42.840
them boxy cars, like not too big. But if you

142
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:46.879
know any of the Plymouth cars, they're not that they're

143
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:49.440
they they're up a little. And but it was like

144
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:53.720
I saw at angle and this thing was like giant

145
00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:57.720
to me. I mean it was like tall. I can't

146
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:02.000
know exactly how tall because I didn't measure it, but

147
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:04.240
it looked like seven to eight foot tall.

148
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:07.840
So you said there was you actually had another time

149
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:09.759
where you had an experience as well.

150
00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:13.279
Yes, now I'm in my.

151
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:20.519
Let's see, late twenties, maybe twenty eight, like twenty nine,

152
00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:22.840
something like that.

153
00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:30.000
Late twenties. It was me, my cousin, her husband and I.

154
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:36.639
We went to it's in Pennsylvania and I don't know

155
00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:38.080
if you ever heard of the Blue Eyed six.

156
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:41.559
No, it was.

157
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:47.159
In the area of where the guy that was killed

158
00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:53.000
from Blue Eyed six, the man they killed. We were

159
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:57.360
going to check out his gravesite. It was in Moonshine

160
00:09:57.480 --> 00:10:01.000
