Season 1

Two massive black figures sprint across a highway near Memphis just seconds before a tractor-trailer reaches them.


What happened next made the witness realize these were not people.


In this intense episode of Bigfoot Society, Dan shares years of encounters gathered while traveling and working across the eastern United States. His experiences include giant footprints near a remote South Carolina tree farm, terrifying vocalizations behind his trailer in Shelby, North Carolina, strange movement near Point Pleasant’s abandoned TNT bunkers, and unsettling discoveries inside the eerie remains of Centralia, Pennsylvania.


Dan describes silent movement in the woods, deep guttural sounds echoing through creek beds, broken trees, possible trackways, and nighttime encounters that happened disturbingly close to where people live.

You're listening to Bigflat Society and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In

2
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.879
this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring

3
00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:08.720
you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.880
something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to

5
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.719
quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,

6
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.719
and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.

7
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.000
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.

8
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:27.440
To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that

9
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.160
just might change the way you see the woods forever.

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:34.280
So stay with us, all right, Pickfoot Society, Welcome back

00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:41.439
friend Dan today. Dan is an interesting individual. He travels

13
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:45.280
all over the place, works on the road, and he

14
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:48.119
makes sure that he goes to some really cool place

15
00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:52.200
places and he's had some interesting things happen along the way.

16
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:54.039
So welcome to the show.

17
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:54.359

26
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:24.599
to share, my friend. You've actually had some interesting encounters

27
00:01:24.599 --> 00:01:30.040
with bigfoot over the years. That's correct, Yes, gotcha. How

28
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:32.480
did that all start out for you? Was it a

29
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:34.719
thing where you're traveling us through a certain area and

30
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:37.200
all of a sudden boom, there it is you have

31
00:01:37.239 --> 00:01:40.040
an encounter? Did you work yourself into it gradually?

32
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:46.680
Well, the first time that I noticed something strange was

33
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:53.000
I was working in Arkansas and I was doing estimates

34
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:58.239
for fixing houses and Hebrew springs, Arkansas, and I was

35
00:01:58.359 --> 00:02:02.959
driving back to North Carolina towards Memphis, down in the

36
00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:07.480
Mississippi Valley area where it starts heading towards Memphis. And

37
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:11.439
I was in farm lands and there's probably like a

38
00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:14.280
tractor trailer and maybe three cars ahead of me, So

39
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.960
it was probably about somewhere between a quarter to eighth

40
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:23.199
of a mile down the road. There was two large

41
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:27.360
silhouettes that ran across the road at the last second

42
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:30.919
in front of the tractor trailer, and everything happened within

43
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:33.280
a split seconds. I was like, I was thinking to

44
00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:40.000
myself you know, that's weird. Why are those people running

45
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.400
across the road right from a tractor trailer like they

46
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.960
like they're trying to get high on it, adrenaline rush

47
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:49.520
or something. But they jumped off the road into a

48
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:53.439
drainage ditch and it was two of them, and they

49
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.120
just looked like black silhouettes. And I also thought that

50
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:03.439
that was strange. So and but the thing that threw

51
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:06.719
me off was when the splash came up, it looked

52
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.039
like a mortar round going off that went way above

53
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:16.080
the tractor trailer. So I was like, okay, uh So

54
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:17.960
when I so when I finally got up there on

55
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:21.599
the road, I was looking at the drainage ditch like

56
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:26.280
having no perspective on the size of the of the ditch,

57
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:28.960
and it's about ten feet down and twenty feet wide.

58
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:33.759
Okay, So you're saying, what I get from that is

59
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:38.560
that for it to make a splash that big, it

60
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:41.520
would have had to been something with a whole bunch

61
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:45.439
of force or a super heavy creature, I don't know.

62
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:48.400
It had to be massed. Yeah, And when I played

63
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:51.280
back the memory, it was probably somewhere around the side

64
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.759
like the head the head level of the big one

65
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:57.080
which would have had to have been, you know, around

66
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:01.199
the windshield height the of the tractor trailer.

67
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.639
And so for let's say, for listeners who are not

68
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:08.319
super familiar with tractor trailer trucks, what what height or

69
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:10.240
approximate height would that put it out?

70
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:14.479
We're talking somewhere between six to eight feet. I'm driving

71
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:16.800
my jeep behind the truck and I see it from

72
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:17.360
a distance.

73
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:24.639
Did you did it have a weird way of moving

74
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:26.399
across the road? You said it was running.

75
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.800
It was it was like really fast and they were

76
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.480
they were It was like they were they were. They

77
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:35.360
were like frantic and they kind of like look back

78
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:40.519
like you know, and uh, they like scuffled really fast

79
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:43.480
and then just like took a huge upwards leap and

80
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:47.199
then down and then like a like a mortar round

81
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:47.639
went off.

82
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:55.480
Okay, how did that affect you afterwards? When you had

83
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:58.319
that sighting of the of them running across the road?

84
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:02.800
I mean I was at a distance and it was

85
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:07.240
probably like fourth somewhere between four and six at night.

86
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:09.480
The sun was like going down, but it was still

87
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:11.519
light outside. So that's why I thought it was strange.

88
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.240
But it seemed like whatever happened was they were scared

89
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:16.879
at the last second. Maybe out in farmlands, not much

90
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:23.000
area at all hide because it's just huge cornfields for miles, right,

91
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:24.839
And it seemed like they were trying to cross the

92
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:28.079
road and then got flustered and then at the last

93
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.480
second made the last ditch effort to run across the

94
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:33.639
road and jump into the dish to hide themselves.

95
00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:38.600
Were Did it seem to affect the driver of the

96
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:40.240
tractor trailer truck at all?

97
00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:43.720
Yeah? I could hear his tire sketch up and slow

98
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:45.480
down a little bit, and then we all slowed down,

99
00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:48.399
and then I kind of like coasted at like probably

100
00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:50.680
like forty miles an hour when we were probably going

101
00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:56.879
sixty five before that. Okay, So it probably probably flustered

102
00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:59.839
the truck driver more than it flustered me, and he

103
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:04.079
probably out there with his story somewhere not telling it. Yeah.

104
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:07.800
Probably a lot of those drivers have some incredible stories,

105
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:11.000
and a lot of them are just holding on to

106
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:18.319
them sometimes until they stop driving, which is understandable. So

107
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:20.560
after this, did you keep on driving or did you

108
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:21.839
pull over or what happened?

109
00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:24.920
No? I had to get I was in a rush

110
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:27.759
get to where I was going, but I stopped and looked,

111
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:29.920
and I was like, I was like, man, that's crazy.

112
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.720
It was ten feet down, twenty feet wide, and the

113
00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:35.680
splash was so high. You know, you know, the top

114
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:39.959
of a tractor trailer cart is probably like what fifteen

115
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.879
feet in the air or something like that. That's all

116
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:45.759
the way at the top, somewhere between like twelve and

117
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:49.519
fifteen feet, And this splash went from ten feet down

118
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:55.959
below the road up above the top of the tractor trailer.

119
00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:58.000
There's no human that can make it splash like that.

120
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.720
Would you say, say, at that point, were you confused

121
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.079
as to what happened or were you Were you at

122
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:07.160
a point where you're like, I know exactly what just

123
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:08.000
happened right there.

124
00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:12.160
It took me about two minutes to calculate everything in

125
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:14.600
my head and then determined that that's exactly what happened

126
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:19.279
because I played it back, and because at first I thought,

127
00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:21.000
I was like, why are these humans running across the

128
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:24.879
road like in the in the you know, right in

129
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:27.279
front of a tractor trailer. They're going to get themselves killed.

130
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:30.480
And then I played it back and I was like, wait,

131
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:34.000
they weren't wearing anything. They were just silhouettes and they

132
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:35.399
were really large.

133
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:41.120
Yeah, absolutely, so you you could notice that, you know,

134
00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:45.040
they're not wearing clothes. Could you tell that it was

135
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:48.800
a hairy figure it all? Or you know sometimes when

136
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:51.360
you have a road crossing it happens really really quick.

137
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:55.600
No, just black silhouettes. No, No. And it was daylight,

138
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.879
you know, so you would have seen like a lighting

139
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:05.959
of you know, muscle form or the shape of the

140
00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:08.680
hair or something, you know, something like that, or clothes

141
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:12.079
you know, moving with the body. But there was none

142
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:14.040
of it. It was just it was just the shape

143
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:17.920
and form of the body, you know. So, and that

144
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.639
was two of them. There was one that was probably

145
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:24.680
somewhere between six and eight feet tall, and then there

146
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:27.959
was one that was somewhere between six and seven feet tall.

147
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:32.039
I mean yeah, seven six and seven feet all. Yeah, So.

148
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:36.840
It sounds like you you then kept on driving. What

149
00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:39.559
was your How did that affect you? How did it

150
00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:42.919
affect you emotionally? After after you pulled away from there

151
00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:43.919
and you kept on driving.

152
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:49.000
It didn't really affect me emotionally that much. I was

153
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:54.200
it was kind of more like, huh, you know, just

154
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.759
because I've always you know, to start from the beginning

155
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.519
of where I where I come from my background.

156
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:01.919
It's like I.

157
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:08.200
Saw UFOs when I was in growing up in Pennsylvania

158
00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:12.759
outside of Philadelphia, so you know, from that point forward,

159
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:16.159
I was like the abnormal was kind of like, all right,

160
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:18.159
you know, stuff's going on they don't tell us about.

161
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:22.080
So I had already been used to that condition of

162
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:26.399
that feeling of a normal stuff being in reality.

163
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:33.720
Absolutely, It's it seems like most individuals that have these

164
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:40.759
interactions or sightings with Bigfoot, if you start talking to them,

165
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:43.759
there's going to be other stuff that you'll uncover, such

166
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:49.159
as you said you had UFO interactions or were even weirder,

167
00:09:49.559 --> 00:09:53.919
weirder things sometimes, But so did this interaction you had

168
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.720
where you saw them cross the road, did this pick

169
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.039
off or did this kick off a string of events

170
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:04.879
or was it a while before you had something that

171
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:08.559
may have been related to sasquatch in the future.

172
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.080
I'd say it was too much of a period of

173
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:21.600
time in between the recent stuff. So it's kind of like,

174
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:24.039
you know, that put it on my radar for me

175
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:27.440
back then that you know there was something going on

176
00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:32.519
with that, but it was you know, probably that was

177
00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:37.480
back in twenty twenty one, so that was five years ago.

178
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:41.399
At this point. And so Crowder's Mountain is in King's

179
00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:45.840
Mountain and the area with the footage of the tree

180
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:53.200
farm that's in South Carolina, fifteen miles west. I don't

181
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:55.360
want to give the exact location because it's not really

182
00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:59.159
a tourist site. If somebody's abandoned property and then that's

183
00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:01.360
a tree farm locked off. Plus they have like hunting

184
00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:04.639
posts out there, and there's still a large animal out there,

185
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.399
so I'm not going to say that as a sasquatch.

186
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:09.759
It could be a bear, but it could also be

187
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:14.480
the sasquatch because that's where the footprints were bound. Yeah.

188
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:20.039
Yeah, I think the South Carolina. That sounded interesting because

189
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:25.240
it sounds like there's multiple different things potentially going on there.

190
00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:28.080
Yeah, and that's the best evidence that.

191
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:31.519
I have is the South Yeah. Yeah, feel free to

192
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:34.080
kind of share what you've been experiencing done there.

193
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:41.759
Okay, So in South Carolina, me and my brother. My

194
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:44.840
brother's got social anxiety, so you know, I can't take

195
00:11:44.879 --> 00:11:47.240
him to a gym, and he's also out of shape.

196
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.679
So there was an abandoned house up the road. So

197
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:51.960
I was like, well, why don't we buy like a

198
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:55.480
tarp would like, you know, jog around the yard and

199
00:11:55.600 --> 00:12:00.480
do like calisthenics on the carport, you know, so that

200
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:05.279
you can get your workouts in. And we had been

201
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:08.360
there like three times, always cleaned up after ourselves. They

202
00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:15.759
don't leave any mess or anything. And then one of

203
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:18.200
the times we came back, there was like all this

204
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:21.639
disturbed mud on the side of the road that I

205
00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:24.440
didn't see before. So I went over and looked at it.

206
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:27.840
I was like, what the heck is this? And there

207
00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:32.759
was like this swirled disturbance in the mud, and you

208
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:37.120
could tell that there was some large I guess like

209
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:41.360
a dump truck or a tree cutter or earth mover

210
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.399
that came by. Those large industrial tires for the heavy

211
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:49.120
machinery had come by, and it looked like it had

212
00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:54.240
spooked some large sasquatch and a smaller sasquatch that were

213
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:59.120
crossing the road, and then they ran back over. They

214
00:12:59.159 --> 00:13:02.399
were crossing a road from the left to the right

215
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:06.840
from from my perspective looking towards the tree farm, and

216
00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:12.080
then ran back to the left up the hill and

217
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:15.639
broke some trees as they stepped as they smashed through

218
00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:19.000
them to run into the woods. And then it also

219
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:23.799
looks like it had spooked the tree farm driver, which

220
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.320
I would talk to them, but I'm not. I mean,

221
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:28.240
you know, I'm not even supposed to be back there.

222
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:32.039
So so it spooked the tree farmer, and then the

223
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:37.320
truck like beard and smashed into the into the tree

224
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:39.879
of the embankment next to it. So there's a section

225
00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:42.600
where where there's like a straight line into the mud.

226
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.159
You can tell that the truck got spooked and went.

227
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:49.519
And then to the next to that, there's these tracks

228
00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:55.360
that run up the hill that smashed through trees, and

229
00:13:55.399 --> 00:14:02.399
then inside inside the woods there's that are snapped six

230
00:14:02.440 --> 00:14:06.639
feet up twelve feet up, and they are also arch trees.

231
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:14.759
Interesting. How long were the tracks that you were seeing.

232
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:19.120
The one track was absolutely massive, and I know that

233
00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:21.679
I have not encountered that being because I would be

234
00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:29.639
peeing myself and running away like a little girl. The

235
00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:33.360
main track, the largest track was probably somewhere between twenty

236
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:36.799
and twenty four inches and then probably about twelve inches wide.

237
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:43.320
It was massive, unless that's expanded from unless that's expanded

238
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.159
from a slide. But I mean the size and width

239
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:49.519
of it, plus the little toe divits that weren't really

240
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.559
visible on the tracks because they pierced into the mud

241
00:14:52.639 --> 00:15:00.360
a little bit, you get what I'm saying. Y that

242
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.159
foot was terrifying. When I saw that, I was like,

243
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:05.759
oh my god, I'm gonna get the heck out of here.

244
00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.159
And then the other one was probably somewhere between thirteen

245
00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:10.399
and sixteen inches.

246
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:15.840
Was it possible to see how many toes were on

247
00:15:15.879 --> 00:15:16.799
the foot through that?

248
00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:22.519
I believe that that they have five toes.

249
00:15:23.080 --> 00:15:35.519
Yep, that's interesting. Sometimes. What was the sounds of the area, like,

250
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:39.480
is it a noisy area when it comes to nature

251
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:42.360
or was there anything that fell off about it.

252
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:48.639
So that road's creepy? It's always quiet over there. I

253
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:53.279
did hear on the list. I said, it's like a

254
00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:57.559
falcon deer call. Starts out like a high pitched falcon

255
00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:00.759
and then goes to like a more vocal range deer call.

256
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:03.639
And I think it's some kind of female. And it

257
00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:05.360
was always off in the distance. We heard it on

258
00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:10.000
up there by that property and then across the street

259
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:14.360
by the power lines on the r V park and

260
00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:19.039
it's kind of like or something like that, but but

261
00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:23.039
it's really high pitched at the beginning and then kind

262
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:24.039
of like vocal range.

263
00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:35.960
Have you ever tried to to to do any track

264
00:16:36.039 --> 00:16:37.440
casting in that area.

265
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:42.240
I was thinking about it, and uh, I don't. I

266
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:47.120
don't go back there anymore. So I've been creeped out

267
00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:53.080
since then. The so right after that, the tree farm,

268
00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:59.200
there's all these conflicting stories. But they tree cutter went

269
00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:01.919
in there, cut a line straight behind to my trailer

270
00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:05.119
and then went all along the edge of the trailer

271
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:10.000
park retainer fence to the end of the trailer park.

272
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:11.599
And I was like, what the heck are these people.

273
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:13.799
I was staring at the guy while he was doing it.

274
00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:17.400
You know, he's cutting down trees, like you know, fifteen

275
00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:19.920
twenty feet from my trailer. I was worried about the

276
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:22.240
tree swalling on my trailer. And they tried to say

277
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:25.519
that it was Duke Energy for power lines. There hasn't

278
00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:28.000
been a Duke Energy back there putting up power lines.

279
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:30.759
And ever since he cut them down, that large thint

280
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.240
creature has been coming up the back of my trailer

281
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:37.160
on the retainer fence. So there's a six foot wooden

282
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:41.759
retainer fence and then the embankment behind it rises up

283
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:45.440
about three feet of mud in the tree start, and

284
00:17:46.240 --> 00:17:52.640
about five feet back there's a chicken wire fence with

285
00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:56.000
the posts and the chicken wire, and it's smashed down

286
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:59.000
right behind that chicken wire fence and smashed down right

287
00:17:59.000 --> 00:17:59.720
behind my trailer.

288
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:03.759
Oh okay, so you think it's it's getting pretty close

289
00:18:03.880 --> 00:18:07.119
to where that property that trailer was.

290
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:10.079
Did you see the video that I sent you where

291
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:12.200
it was like I was outside at night and I

292
00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:14.279
was in the dark, and then I waited till the

293
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:17.079
footsteps got close, and then I put up the headlamp.

294
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:21.400
Yeah you can. Is that something where you can walk

295
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:25.000
us through what happened for the listeners.

296
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:29.119
Yeah. So I was on the road working in Massachusetts.

297
00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:35.480
So after the initial video when I contacted you, I

298
00:18:35.519 --> 00:18:40.039
had to go on the road to work and I

299
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:43.279
this and the tree farm. The tree farm had cut

300
00:18:43.279 --> 00:18:45.640
down trees before I left. When I came back the

301
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.079
night that I left, I heard something scramble and the

302
00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:52.319
trash down the street, and then about twenty minutes later,

303
00:18:54.920 --> 00:19:00.319
I'm a night out. I'm not you know, I'm usually

304
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:02.720
up like around ten am and then I'm up until

305
00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:04.519
like two in the morning or something like that. So

306
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:06.240
I spent a lot of time outside because I used

307
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:09.160
to work third shift for a long time and I

308
00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:12.720
like to relax and maybe have a seltzer water or

309
00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:15.240
a beer, and smoke some cigarettes and just relax in

310
00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:19.359
the quiet nighttime with the moonlight and the crickets and everything.

311
00:19:20.079 --> 00:19:27.160
And I'm sitting out there and I hear some rustling

312
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:30.920
in the distance, and there had been a warning when

313
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.200
I was on the road that they had seen bear tracks,

314
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:35.480
and I thought to myself, they didn't see bear tracks,

315
00:19:35.720 --> 00:19:41.400
they saw something else, you know. So I because there's

316
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:43.839
not many bears around here, Like there's not many bears

317
00:19:43.839 --> 00:19:48.079
in Shelby. There's not many bears in South Carolina with

318
00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:57.079
the areas near Gaffney and Blacksburg, so there's not many

319
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:00.319
bears around. But I mean there are, there are some

320
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:04.480
bears that passed through sometimes. But there's also been sightings

321
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:09.599
of sasquatch in the area more south, you know, and

322
00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:13.759
then also up in Shelby or Kaser or something like that.

323
00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:20.039
So so I'm sitting out there, I'm smoking a cigarette

324
00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:22.200
and I'm drinking a beer. I'm relaxing after I got

325
00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:26.720
back from being driving back from Massachusetts. And I hear

326
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.319
something in the distance, so I shine my light. Well,

327
00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:33.359
this thing doesn't scram it moses on over to the

328
00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:37.039
to the light and then I turned the light off,

329
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:39.799
and when it gets right next to me, it stops,

330
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:43.880
and I put the light on. But the tree line's

331
00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:48.119
so thick you can't see anything. And there's there's a

332
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:51.559
picnic table right there, and I was not about to

333
00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:53.480
get up there and put my head over that fence.

334
00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:58.839
You know, I might be uh, I might be take risks,

335
00:20:58.839 --> 00:20:59.720
but not that risky.

336
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.960
So right exactly, because you do put yourself in some

337
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:10.640
really interesting situations. Now, you also have a note here

338
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:16.359
that down in Shelby, North Carolina area, you've heard some

339
00:21:16.440 --> 00:21:20.799
really interesting vocalizations in that area too, Is that right?

340
00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:23.720
Yeah, there's all kinds of stream noises I hear all

341
00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:24.039
the time.

342
00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:28.359
Yeah, what kind of Well, well.

343
00:21:28.519 --> 00:21:31.119
I do have to say that before I went on

344
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:36.319
the road in Massachusetts, I did hear a coyote at

345
00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:38.640
the end of Did you see any of the videos

346
00:21:38.640 --> 00:21:40.279
from the trailer park like I was set up?

347
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:42.799
Yes, yep, So.

348
00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:45.200
Down the hill there's like a bunch of trash cans.

349
00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:49.039
Probably like three nights after the initial video in South Carolina,

350
00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:53.440
I heard the coyote call and then like switched to

351
00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:56.839
like some gibberish and stuff. And then nothing like nothing

352
00:21:56.880 --> 00:21:58.640
after that. And my brother was there to hear it too,

353
00:21:58.680 --> 00:22:00.640
and he's like, you hear that. I was like, yeah,

354
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:05.319
He's like, that wasn't a coyote? Yeah? So that that

355
00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:06.880
was another thing that I heard down there.

356
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:12.359
Goshcha. And is that the same On your list you

357
00:22:13.279 --> 00:22:20.359
mentioned how you have heard something that's similar to samurai chatter.

358
00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:22.519
Would that be the same experience or that was a

359
00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:24.160
totally different experience.

360
00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:25.160
That was right beyond my house?

361
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:32.880
Okay? And that was just May of this year, Is

362
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:33.319
that right?

363
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:34.440
Yes?

364
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:38.119
Oh wow, okay. Can you can you take us through

365
00:22:39.640 --> 00:22:42.160
what it would be like when you would hear that

366
00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:44.400
those type of vocalizations around the shelby?

367
00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:49.119
Well, that was the only time that I heard that one, okay. Yeah.

368
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:52.440
And so I was on my back porch watching clickbait

369
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:57.000
videos scrolling through. I got it. It's it's like a

370
00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:02.599
second story stilts porch screen in and all that, and uh,

371
00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:04.960
this is at my mom's property. You know, I haven't trailer.

372
00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:08.559
Uh my mom has like a large property with about

373
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:12.920
three acres and uh, there's a drainage creek out back

374
00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:16.720
and in the one area kind of like curves around

375
00:23:16.759 --> 00:23:19.000
and then like straightens it out to come into my yard,

376
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:22.519
and then the rest off to the right side of

377
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:27.119
the property is thick weeds and woods, and then off

378
00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:28.799
to the left side is thick weeds and woods, and

379
00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:31.880
then it's cleared for the backyard itself. But we also

380
00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:34.279
owned all the acreage on the right and the left.

381
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:40.279
So I'm watching, I'm not even paying attention to any

382
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:41.839
of the sounds outside, and then all of a sudden,

383
00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:47.400
this loud vocalization of like, I'll try, I'll try to

384
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:55.880
give an example. It was like something like that. You know,

385
00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:00.440
I kind of feel silly even mimicking it, but you

386
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:06.359
know it was. It was very guttural and deep in

387
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:09.000
the voice. But the weird thing was is it had

388
00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:13.079
this kind of like metallic after effect, like if you

389
00:24:13.079 --> 00:24:16.000
would put like one of those voice box things up

390
00:24:16.039 --> 00:24:19.039
with the alien robot sound that they used to have

391
00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:23.079
during like the early two thousands and nineties, that that

392
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:27.119
metallic sound to the voice. Yep, it had that sound.

393
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:29.599
I was like, why the heck? I was like, that

394
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:31.599
was that? Why did I have that metallic sound? And

395
00:24:31.640 --> 00:24:33.640
then kind of like blended into like a really deep

396
00:24:34.359 --> 00:24:38.440
vocal voice, right, and I went my dog had gone

397
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:40.279
back there the next day because he sniffed, she was

398
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:45.559
sniffing around and in the water. The acoustics of that

399
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:49.319
spot in the water create a metallic feedback sound like

400
00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:53.359
throwing a stone down a pipe. You get what I'm saying.

401
00:24:53.799 --> 00:24:58.599
Okay, weird, Yeah, yeah, so there you go. So that's

402
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:03.720
the explanation right there. Yeah, going off your list, you

403
00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:09.599
there is also some weird stuff that happened right after that, right, yes,

404
00:25:10.559 --> 00:25:17.279
where like your your neighbor had an interesting interaction. Could

405
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:20.000
you share the events of what happened the days after

406
00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:22.559
you heard those vocalizations?

407
00:25:23.079 --> 00:25:27.640
Okay, so the next day, I well, that same night, right,

408
00:25:27.720 --> 00:25:30.720
I got freaked out. I was like, somebody's in my backyard,

409
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:32.720
like you know, But I also thought to myself, you know,

410
00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:35.119
they didn't said like a person. So I stood up

411
00:25:35.400 --> 00:25:37.319
and I was like, what are you doing on my property?

412
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:40.039
You know, you don't belong here. Get out of here.

413
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:45.400
And then I heard right, and it was like real fast,

414
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:49.240
like and it was soft too, Like I didn't hear

415
00:25:49.279 --> 00:25:52.440
splashes or anything. It was just really quick, really really soft,

416
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:58.000
and it traveled about fifty yards in that matter of

417
00:25:58.039 --> 00:26:01.759
like that sound effect. And then and it was still

418
00:26:01.799 --> 00:26:05.119
in the creek. Never heard it come up onto the land.

419
00:26:05.839 --> 00:26:07.960
And when I the next day, I went out and

420
00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:13.000
checked by the creek and then there's a pathway coming

421
00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:16.240
from the creek. And this whole time, I'm still questioning,

422
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:18.640
like is this a bear? Is this a sasquash? What

423
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:22.680
you know? Which is it? But I was challenging AI

424
00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:25.640
to like format, and they tried to. They trying to

425
00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:27.160
say it was a bear at first, but then it

426
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:30.559
also said that if bears run fast like what I described,

427
00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:34.480
they're going to have the four feet pinched at high speed.

428
00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:37.000
You get what I'm saying. There was none of that.

429
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:40.319
There was five feet strides in between single feet.

430
00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:41.400
Wow.

431
00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:46.880
Yeah, okay. And I didn't hear it. I didn't hear

432
00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:49.000
any of it. When it got on land, I didn't

433
00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:54.440
hear I didn't hear that silence.

434
00:26:55.519 --> 00:27:07.759
Interesting, and then you're after that your I believe this

435
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:11.079
might have been the next the next day where you

436
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:14.599
were talking to your your neighbor in the camper next

437
00:27:14.599 --> 00:27:15.640
to you. Is that right?

438
00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:19.079
Yeah, So I'm talking to my neighbor and camper next

439
00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:21.599
to me. He's a good old boy, and you know,

440
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:24.960
he drinks a lot of beer. Does does his day

441
00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:28.279
job and stuff like that, and he, I guess he

442
00:27:28.279 --> 00:27:30.519
he has a lot of daughters. This was his excuse.

443
00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:31.920
He's got a lot of daughters. So he moved out

444
00:27:31.920 --> 00:27:35.119
of his house and got a camper stuff. I guess

445
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:37.440
they they're older and they kind of like take up

446
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.000
most of the house. And he also likes to drink,

447
00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:42.480
so that might have something to do with it. But

448
00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:45.279
you know, I'm not giving his identity, so it doesn't matter.

449
00:27:47.319 --> 00:27:50.880
But yeah, I'm talking to him and and he's I'm

450
00:27:50.920 --> 00:27:54.319
telling him how to flush his black water tank and

451
00:27:54.359 --> 00:27:57.240
his great water tank so that you know, you don't

452
00:27:57.279 --> 00:27:59.519
have the sludge left over by doing them reversed and

453
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:03.720
all that stuff. And we're out there talking and uh,

454
00:28:04.119 --> 00:28:05.920
I told him a set of timer, but he he

455
00:28:05.960 --> 00:28:08.839
forgot to set the timer and started flooding out of

456
00:28:08.880 --> 00:28:13.680
his shower for running the fasces to fill up the

457
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:18.440
gray water. And and we went right inside the turn

458
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:20.000
that off and stop it up. And then we came

459
00:28:20.039 --> 00:28:22.480
outside and it was right around dusk, and we heard

460
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:26.599
the heard the footsteps coming up and the you know,

461
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:28.839
he's like, you know, trying to be machismo. So he

462
00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:31.359
says he goes inside the house and gets his gun

463
00:28:31.359 --> 00:28:33.119
and that he's gonna shoot it if he has to

464
00:28:33.240 --> 00:28:36.440
or whatever, and I'm like, well, I don't know about that, man,

465
00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:37.839
I want to mess with that. You don't even know

466
00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:42.480
what the heck it is. So but yeah, and I

467
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:44.359
had to leave right after that anyway, But I kind

468
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:47.200
of felt because it's like he's got this large animal

469
00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:50.559
beyond the beyond the house. But you know, he didn't.

470
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:53.000
He didn't seem too worried about it. But you know,

471
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:55.279
we both looked for it, though, Like we put on

472
00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:59.200
headlamps and went over to the edge, had a little bit,

473
00:28:59.240 --> 00:29:01.920
had a little bit of more courage because there was

474
00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:05.319
two of us, but we didn't see anything. This thing,

475
00:29:05.359 --> 00:29:08.759
whatever it is, it's not scared of humans, and it's

476
00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:10.759
elusive enough that it can be right near.

477
00:29:10.839 --> 00:29:13.839
Yet you also have gone to a place that really

478
00:29:13.880 --> 00:29:16.680
hasn't come up on the show a lot. I'm trying

479
00:29:16.720 --> 00:29:21.160
to think. I don't think it really has. But you

480
00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:26.559
had some interesting things happen over in the bunkers by

481
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:27.960
point pleasant, right.

482
00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:36.200
Yeah, So there was no real experience of like any

483
00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:39.400
animals around, Like I didn't hear any footsteps or anything

484
00:29:39.440 --> 00:29:41.599
like that. But what happened was we went over to

485
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:44.960
the bunkers because well, we went to Point Pleasant and

486
00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:46.279
we were like, what is this going to be? Like

487
00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:48.599
we thought we were like two random clowns coming into

488
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:52.559
town to ask about yeah, the moth Man. We didn't

489
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:54.559
know that they like have like a whole industry of

490
00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:55.279
like tourism.

491
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:58.599
Oh yeah right, excuse me.

492
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:03.480
So we were we were downtown doing the shops and

493
00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:05.160
I was like, well, where's the real stuff. I want

494
00:30:05.200 --> 00:30:07.640
to see the real stuff, you know. So we drove

495
00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:13.359
out to the bunker location where the TNT factory was

496
00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:17.559
for the Western West Virginia Ordnance Works. Uh. It's World

497
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:23.599
War two T and T ammunitions production site and the

498
00:30:23.720 --> 00:30:27.079
entire factories torn down except for the two bunkers that

499
00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:30.599
that are still left, and it's the rest of the

500
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:34.799
area around it is turned into a wilderness reserve. Uh

501
00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:38.599
and it's a super fun site. Uh. Anyway, we pulled

502
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:40.279
up the spot and we went to the bunker and

503
00:30:40.319 --> 00:30:44.119
that was the creepiest part that I experienced because the

504
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:46.279
door was busted open. You go inside and it's like

505
00:30:46.359 --> 00:30:50.480
every every sound that you make echoes like probably like

506
00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:55.559
twenty times, Like uh, what what the thing, the thing that,

507
00:30:55.759 --> 00:30:58.839
you know, something like that, and it's like every sound

508
00:30:58.920 --> 00:31:00.960
you make, it's just kind of cashe and then and

509
00:31:01.000 --> 00:31:03.039
then it like builds off of itself and it is

510
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.279
really dark and damp and creepy. A lot of graffiti,

511
00:31:08.119 --> 00:31:11.559
you know. Outside was covered in vines and stuff. So

512
00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:16.799
my brother likes to find strange paths through the woods.

513
00:31:16.799 --> 00:31:20.119
And there was some vines arched right off to the

514
00:31:20.200 --> 00:31:25.480
left of the bunker, right, so he says, don't walk

515
00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:29.319
through the don't walk through them. They're portals, that's what

516
00:31:29.400 --> 00:31:31.519
he thinks. He thinks of their portals, like the vines

517
00:31:31.599 --> 00:31:34.559
bend around some kind of portal. So he always walks

518
00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:39.039
off to the side. So we went around them, and

519
00:31:39.079 --> 00:31:42.640
there was like these really old stones that were covered

520
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:46.000
in heavy moss, and then there was like trails through

521
00:31:46.000 --> 00:31:49.119
the woods, and I didn't want to go in the woods.

522
00:31:49.119 --> 00:31:54.440
I had my nice sneakers on and I didn't feel

523
00:31:54.440 --> 00:31:57.240
like getting them dirty. I mean, I did walk through

524
00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:58.880
the woods a little bit, but he likes to go

525
00:31:59.039 --> 00:32:04.720
like miles into the woods, you know, so I convinced

526
00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:06.759
him not to. And then we walked up the main

527
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:10.200
trail that's kind of like gravel and there was another bunker.

528
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:12.559
He went in there and then we walked. He said,

529
00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:17.759
let's go a little further, and then we found another

530
00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:21.359
large archway, probably about fourteen feet tall, that was arched

531
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:26.759
with trees and a path through the grass. And I

532
00:32:26.880 --> 00:32:29.119
was standing out. I was like, all right, man, you

533
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:33.559
could go in there. I'm just staying here. So he

534
00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:35.720
walked in and he was telling him while he was

535
00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:40.000
telling me that there was split trees at the route

536
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:42.519
that were knocked down, which is not how trees fall.

537
00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:46.759
They fall from loose gravel at the tree ball, and

538
00:32:46.799 --> 00:32:51.599
then more woven trees. I didn't get pictures of this

539
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:54.640
stuff because I didn't go into the woods, but we

540
00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:59.880
did get pictures of this creepy, large clump that's all

541
00:32:59.880 --> 00:33:02.160
I can describe it as on the edge of the lake,

542
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:08.200
which looks like some giant monster took a dump and

543
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:12.279
all the undigested stuff came out of it. It looked

544
00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:15.279
like there was a fleece in there and a teeky

545
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:20.680
umbrella that somebody would drink with a my tie. You know.

546
00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:25.079
It was really creepy, and it had a bunch of

547
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:28.359
sludge on it, and there was a large deep foot

548
00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:30.759
impression next to it on the and this was on

549
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:33.880
the bank of the of this swampy lake to the

550
00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:40.519
left of the trail, in high grass like you know,

551
00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:43.640
what do they call them cattails and all that kind

552
00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:49.880
of stuff? Uh excuse me? Sorry? Uh this this uh

553
00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:55.720
pandana makes it hard to breathe. So there was a

554
00:33:55.799 --> 00:33:58.799
large foot that was sunken into the ground and water

555
00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:03.039
had filled it. Right, So there's something with enough pressure

556
00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:05.799
to make the ground sicken and water fill it. And

557
00:34:05.799 --> 00:34:09.679
then next to it, it's this large clump that looked like

558
00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:17.800
a giant mass of excreted material and it was probably

559
00:34:18.960 --> 00:34:20.719
the size of a medicine ball.

560
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:23.800
That's massive.

561
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:27.320
Yeah, it was. It was massive. And when I was

562
00:34:27.320 --> 00:34:28.719
looking at that, I was like, man, we need to

563
00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:31.239
get out of here. And he was like, he's like,

564
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:35.119
all right. You know, my brother's like an a normal person,

565
00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:39.840
and he doesn't have the usual survival instincts as most

566
00:34:39.880 --> 00:34:45.719
people's fear keeps them from doing dangerous stuff, you know,

567
00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:49.320
So he disregards that all the time, which really makes

568
00:34:49.320 --> 00:34:53.000
me irritated. Right, But yeah, I mean he finds interesting

569
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:55.239
stuff because of it, but you know, it's still kind

570
00:34:55.239 --> 00:34:55.760
of annoying.

571
00:34:55.880 --> 00:35:03.000
So that's cool because excuse me, that's a different story

572
00:35:03.039 --> 00:35:04.920
than you hear from most people that are going out

573
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:07.880
to Point Pleasant Usually, as you kind of alluded to,

574
00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:10.760
it's just hang out at the statue and go over

575
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:14.519
to the Mathmian Museum. But yeah, you guys are going

576
00:35:14.599 --> 00:35:18.639
out there and finding finding the weird stuff as well.

577
00:35:18.840 --> 00:35:21.440
I do want to make sure were there any other

578
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:29.400
Bigfoot related incidents that you have had over the years.

579
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:36.239
Let's see. Oh yeah, so there was one time back

580
00:35:36.280 --> 00:35:38.679
in twenty twenty when when I was on my back

581
00:35:38.719 --> 00:35:43.440
porch with my brother and his friend Micah, and we

582
00:35:43.440 --> 00:35:45.599
were in the middle of the conversation having nothing to

583
00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:49.639
do with Bigfoot or UFOs or anything. We were just

584
00:35:49.679 --> 00:35:56.320
seven usual conversation and there was this large crashing of

585
00:35:57.480 --> 00:36:01.559
something stepping and crushing trees, unning through the woods, and

586
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:04.000
then there was like a large growl, like a raw

587
00:36:04.360 --> 00:36:07.920
you know, and it was there's a really terrible example

588
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:11.639
because the ground was way more large and deep and

589
00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:18.440
aggressive than that. But and my brother was like, did

590
00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:20.079
you did you hear that? And I was like, yeah,

591
00:36:20.119 --> 00:36:22.239
I heard it, and he was, you know, we were

592
00:36:22.239 --> 00:36:24.559
in the middle conversation, so I was just disregarding it,

593
00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:28.159
not even worried about it, because there's large animals around

594
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:31.320
here all the time, but not not that large. I

595
00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:35.079
just for some reason, I was just disregarding it and uh,

596
00:36:35.199 --> 00:36:38.440
and he was like, that was a sasquatch, Like okay,

597
00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:41.760
you know, not even not even really paying attention to

598
00:36:41.800 --> 00:36:44.840
it because we were like focused on the conversation or whatever.

599
00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:49.599
But that that was. That was probably one of the

600
00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:52.360
only other times that that we had anythings strange going

601
00:36:52.440 --> 00:36:58.760
like that. You have other than other than Shelby, which

602
00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:00.440
there's been repeated stuf going.

603
00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:05.840
On, right, Yeah, Shelby, definitely you've had weird stuff going on.

604
00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:12.119
It'd be interesting just because I've never been able to

605
00:37:12.159 --> 00:37:16.000
talk to anyone about the area. So maybe not Bigfoot related,

606
00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:19.920
but still could be interesting. You were able to kind

607
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:24.119
of go through Centralia, Pennsylvania. Can you share what the

608
00:37:24.199 --> 00:37:26.880
deal with Centralia is and what it was like to

609
00:37:26.920 --> 00:37:28.480
be in a situation like that.

610
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:36.440
So Centralia was a coal mining town back in the

611
00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:41.559
sixties and they caught on fire and I guess over

612
00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:48.519
decades they cleared everybody out because of noxious gas vapors

613
00:37:48.519 --> 00:37:52.440
coming up to the earth and sinkhole's and all kinds

614
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:55.280
of other stuff. There's still looked like there's still three

615
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:59.119
houses there living a normal life. Plus on one hand,

616
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:02.360
you got like a five to ten minute drive to

617
00:38:02.480 --> 00:38:05.880
the right out of town that goes to Ashland. Then

618
00:38:05.920 --> 00:38:08.119
you got another five to ten minute drive to the

619
00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:12.320
left that goes to Mount Carmel, and those are completely

620
00:38:12.400 --> 00:38:15.679
fine towns. But it's weird because the main area that's

621
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:21.559
burning is off to the right near Ashland, but Ashlands

622
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:24.599
not abandoned. So I don't really get that.

623
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:34.639
Because does it have like abandoned town vibes or like

624
00:38:34.840 --> 00:38:38.440
almost like stuff is overgrowing the town in a way,

625
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:39.920
or how would you describe it.

626
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:44.960
Well, it's kind of strange. It's a really weird spot

627
00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:49.079
because you could tell that the streets are still maintained,

628
00:38:49.320 --> 00:38:53.000
the sidewalks are still not the sidewalks, but the curbs

629
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:56.360
to a degree whatever's left or seem like they're maintained

630
00:38:56.360 --> 00:38:59.039
a little bit. And then somebody goes around the entire

631
00:38:59.159 --> 00:39:03.280
town and then takes a lawnmower and trims the edges

632
00:39:03.320 --> 00:39:07.440
of the blocks, you know, and it said something about

633
00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:12.400
like the Borough of Centralia requests that you do not

634
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:16.480
hunt here, you know, for your own safety and blah

635
00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:20.239
blah blah. And I'm like, the borough of Centralia, what

636
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:23.719
are you talking about? There's nothing here, it's borough, But

637
00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:26.880
somehow there's a there's a fire station still there, you know.

638
00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:29.519
I guess that's just in case those three houses catch

639
00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:32.960
on fire. Maybe maybe the three guys that live in

640
00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:36.280
the house have their own fire station. They just run

641
00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:38.639
to the fire station and save their houses. Who knows.

642
00:39:38.760 --> 00:39:42.800
Well, there you go. Yeah, might make sense. But I've

643
00:39:42.840 --> 00:39:46.719
never been able to walk around a town like that.

644
00:39:46.800 --> 00:39:49.000
Does it have is it weird vibes when you're walking

645
00:39:49.039 --> 00:39:51.440
around or what's that like?

646
00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:54.400
Yeah? It was weird. Well, I mean we saw a

647
00:39:54.519 --> 00:40:01.119
large trails in the grass everywhere and there when you're

648
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:04.639
in the town, it's like the only thing is streets.

649
00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:08.360
There's absolutely nothing but streets and then grass and trees,

650
00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:12.119
a lot of trees knocked down. Some areas you'll see

651
00:40:12.199 --> 00:40:14.679
like trees that are dead because you know, obviously the

652
00:40:14.679 --> 00:40:17.719
fumes are coming up through it. And the way that

653
00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:20.519
plants grow there is so random. It doesn't look like

654
00:40:20.559 --> 00:40:24.760
other places. It's like there's such a variety of random

655
00:40:24.800 --> 00:40:27.760
plants growing it's kind of strange. And then when we

656
00:40:29.079 --> 00:40:32.480
the area just up the hill between the two houses

657
00:40:32.480 --> 00:40:35.760
that are left. The other house is way further down,

658
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:37.840
but just up the hill between the two houses that

659
00:40:37.880 --> 00:40:42.119
are left, you go up the street and it goes

660
00:40:42.199 --> 00:40:44.239
up the hill just a little bit, and if you

661
00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:46.400
go to the right, there's these trails back there that

662
00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:55.559
lead into gravel and and then this turns into like

663
00:40:55.559 --> 00:40:59.239
a dirt path into trails, and that's where a lot

664
00:40:59.280 --> 00:41:01.760
of weird stuff was. There was a I mean, there's

665
00:41:01.800 --> 00:41:07.719
obviously like a large regular animal paul prints like bears

666
00:41:07.719 --> 00:41:11.840
and cougars, but there was also arch trees woven trees

667
00:41:12.840 --> 00:41:18.039
which I had put the pictures in the file where

668
00:41:18.159 --> 00:41:21.880
it's like the top branches were like this to create

669
00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:25.320
an arch yep and uh. And then you can see

670
00:41:25.360 --> 00:41:27.960
the large tracks moving up through the through the hill

671
00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:33.360
through that and this this was on the grass that

672
00:41:33.480 --> 00:41:36.920
comes off the main comes over down from the mountain

673
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:42.119
over the main road that goes through town towards Mount

674
00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:48.960
Carmel up the hill to the right of the second

675
00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:52.559
house that's left that's closest to Mount Carmel, so it's

676
00:41:52.679 --> 00:41:54.440
it's it's to the right of that house in the

677
00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:57.800
fields goes up up the hill and there's like this

678
00:41:58.199 --> 00:42:04.719
walkway with trees that are push down for the clearing,

679
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:06.639
and you can see you can look down from the

680
00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:09.360
hill and see where they walk through. So something comes

681
00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:11.320
up through there and then they got this arch of

682
00:42:11.519 --> 00:42:14.159
woven trees at the top and then it goes across

683
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:16.639
the road and there's a pathway that goes up the

684
00:42:16.719 --> 00:42:20.119
hill and that's got trees that block it every so

685
00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:24.920
often like that.

686
00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:30.320
That's weird, weird weird stuff. Is it a so I

687
00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:32.159
don't know, I've never looked into it. Is it one

688
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:35.199
of those places where it's like, well, you can go there,

689
00:42:35.280 --> 00:42:38.960
but you're kind of a lot of it's you know,

690
00:42:39.960 --> 00:42:43.320
be careful stuff like that, because it is like still

691
00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:45.159
burning underground, right Like.

692
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:48.639
Yeah, I mean we thought that maybe there would be

693
00:42:48.679 --> 00:42:54.039
some kind of tourists. No so so Pleasant Point, Pleasant,

694
00:42:54.079 --> 00:42:57.440
West Virginia. They had a little tourist thing. The Centralia

695
00:42:57.480 --> 00:42:59.079
thing is like, no, you're not supposed.

696
00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:05.360
To be here here, don't pay attentions to the burning

697
00:43:05.679 --> 00:43:11.599
underground talent. Yeah. So m m, well, there you go,

698
00:43:11.719 --> 00:43:15.280
there you go. What how about this? Well, one one

699
00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:17.880
last question, Dan, thank you so much for being on

700
00:43:17.960 --> 00:43:20.719
the show and sharing the things you've experienced over the

701
00:43:20.760 --> 00:43:23.480
years as you travel around. What do you think is

702
00:43:23.519 --> 00:43:26.960
the weirdest thing you've ever experienced as you travel around

703
00:43:27.519 --> 00:43:28.239
this country.

704
00:43:30.239 --> 00:43:34.880
Firdest thing you have experienced would be a horrible because

705
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:48.599
I've experienced a lot of strange stuff. Mhmi. I'd say

706
00:43:48.639 --> 00:43:53.119
the weirdest thing I ever experienced was I was driving

707
00:43:53.159 --> 00:43:58.280
out uh driving out the Arkansas one time, UH just

708
00:43:58.320 --> 00:44:01.119
past Memphis, probably like an hour past Memphis on forty

709
00:44:02.199 --> 00:44:06.000
and I was trying to get around this tractor trailer

710
00:44:06.039 --> 00:44:10.960
and then all of a sudden there was two cars

711
00:44:11.000 --> 00:44:20.039
stopped on the side of the highway, and I when

712
00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:22.920
I got around the side edge of the track and

713
00:44:23.000 --> 00:44:26.559
trailer speed up past it. There was a car stopped

714
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:29.280
in the like had slowed down to like maybe twenty

715
00:44:29.320 --> 00:44:32.679
miles an hour on it where most people go like

716
00:44:32.719 --> 00:44:36.719
seventy or eighty, and I almost smashed it in the

717
00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:39.239
back end. So I had to veer out of the

718
00:44:39.280 --> 00:44:43.920
way to the intermedian. And then there was a car

719
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:47.039
completely stopped with a flashing lights on next to that,

720
00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:51.400
so I had to do a double veer and let

721
00:44:51.480 --> 00:44:53.559
the car roll down into the media. And thank god,

722
00:44:53.599 --> 00:44:55.719
there wasn't a barrier right there, and there was no

723
00:44:55.880 --> 00:45:01.719
drop off. And when I after the anxiety had faded off,

724
00:45:01.760 --> 00:45:04.840
which was about ten seconds, like the whole thing was

725
00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:08.599
like ten seconds, there was nothing there. There was one

726
00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:12.639
one car or one suv and nobody else was there,

727
00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:15.760
so there was probably so there was a car that

728
00:45:15.840 --> 00:45:18.280
was stopped blinking on the right side of the road.

729
00:45:18.280 --> 00:45:19.719
Then there's a track and trailer, and then there was

730
00:45:19.760 --> 00:45:21.480
a car that was slowed down to like twenty miles

731
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:24.760
an hour. Then there was another car on the intermedian

732
00:45:24.840 --> 00:45:29.039
that was on the side of the intermedium in one

733
00:45:29.039 --> 00:45:31.880
of those diamond lane type things that was completely stopped

734
00:45:31.880 --> 00:45:36.599
with blinking lights on. And when I finally collected myself

735
00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:39.719
after like you know, ten seconds, I looked around there

736
00:45:39.719 --> 00:45:42.760
was nobody there except for the.

737
00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:48.280
Sub as that. It's very very strange stuff. Man, what

738
00:45:47.360 --> 00:45:52.119
a wild trip you've had so far, but some cool

739
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:57.280
stuff and I think that you know, maybe individuals have

740
00:45:57.320 --> 00:45:59.960
also had things happen around Shelby would love to hear

741
00:46:00.199 --> 00:46:02.679
about it. You can always reach out through the comments,

742
00:46:02.719 --> 00:46:06.199
so you can send an email. But Dan, thank you

743
00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:08.880
so much. Is it a thing where do you post

744
00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:11.320
some of this stuff on like a YouTube channel. You're

745
00:46:11.360 --> 00:46:14.719
just kind of experiencing life yourself and sharing some stories

746
00:46:14.719 --> 00:46:15.280
along the way.

747
00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:19.519
Yeah. I mean I used to post stuff years ago,

748
00:46:19.599 --> 00:46:22.679
but I just kind of stopped doing that after a while.

749
00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:26.320
I just sure, I'm older. You know, I'm forty three.

750
00:46:26.639 --> 00:46:28.760
You know when I was, when I was like in

751
00:46:28.840 --> 00:46:31.840
my mid twenties to mid thirties, I used to post

752
00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:34.480
videos and stuff. But I'm kind of like, you know,

753
00:46:34.639 --> 00:46:38.559
just old and don't really care about doing that that

754
00:46:38.639 --> 00:46:39.280
much anymore.

755
00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:43.039
So gotcha, gotcha. Yeah, it's it's a lot of work

756
00:46:43.079 --> 00:46:45.559
for sure. Well, man, thank you so much for coming

757
00:46:45.599 --> 00:46:49.719
on on the show today. And if you ever have

758
00:46:49.920 --> 00:46:53.039
anything else cool happen in the future, you know, to

759
00:46:53.079 --> 00:46:54.760
send an email. Would love to hear from you. But

760
00:46:54.920 --> 00:46:56.760
thank you so much for hanging out today, Siri.

761
00:46:58.280 --> 00:47:01.760
But I thank you for the opportunity.

762
00:47:03.400 --> 00:47:06.400
Have you ever heard all the accounts of bigfoot activity

763
00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:09.679
around Oakridge, Oregon and you think to yourself, Man, I

764
00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:12.559
would love to get out in those woods and experience

765
00:47:12.559 --> 00:47:17.119
it for myself. Well guess what this year you can

766
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:20.719

767

even better than the previous year's reason number one, I'll

00:47:33.559 --> 00:47:36.280
be one of the speakers. It's gonna be wild. I'll

771
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:41.800
probably I'll say this. There may be stuff you haven't

772
00:47:41.840 --> 00:47:48.039
heard anywhere else, because let's just say sometimes it's well,

00:49:14.719 --> 00:49:17.360
to so many people last year and the year before.

795
00:49:18.280 --> 00:49:21.199
It is an incredible time. You're not going to want

796
00:49:21.199 --> 00:49:25.480
to miss it, and I'll see you there. Before we

797
00:49:25.519 --> 00:49:28.000
wrap this episode, I want to say something directly to

798
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:31.400
a very specific group of listeners. If you're in the military,

799
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:35.199
any branch or forces, and if you've seen something that

800
00:49:35.239 --> 00:49:38.079
no one can explain, or if you're a National Park

801
00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:41.400
ranger or forestry worker who's been told to stay quiet,

802
00:49:42.119 --> 00:49:45.360
or if you're a pilot who's seen something strange down on

803
00:49:45.400 --> 00:49:48.760
the ground, or if you're with the FBI a federal agency,

804
00:49:49.000 --> 00:49:52.199
or working intelligence and you stumbled upon something you're not

805
00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:55.480
allowed to talk about. And if you're a firefighter, paramedic,

806
00:49:55.639 --> 00:49:58.920
or search and rescue responder who's heard screams or found

807
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:01.559
tracks that didn't make make sense, if you're in the

808
00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:05.639
logging industry, on a remote oil field or a trucker

809
00:50:05.719 --> 00:50:09.559
with government contracts, and you've had something happen that you've

810
00:50:09.559 --> 00:50:12.519
never told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a

811
00:50:12.519 --> 00:50:16.440
wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under contract who has

812
00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:20.320
found evidence you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor,

813
00:50:20.360 --> 00:50:23.599
a missionary, or someone on a spiritual retreat and you

814
00:50:23.679 --> 00:50:26.599
saw something that shook your faith, or if you work

815
00:50:26.599 --> 00:50:30.840
in the shadows CIA, NSA or anything with clearance, and

816
00:50:30.880 --> 00:50:34.679
you've seen what the public hasn't, then I want to

817
00:50:34.719 --> 00:50:39.719
talk to you, even if it's anonymous. You can reach

818
00:50:39.800 --> 00:50:43.559
me at Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com. The world

819
00:50:43.599 --> 00:50:47.440
needs to hear what you've been forced to carry alone,

820
00:50:47.599 --> 00:50:52.280
and you're not alone. You've got the story, We've got

821
00:50:52.320 --> 00:50:55.960
the mic. See you in the woods. Thank you for

822
00:50:56.039 --> 00:50:58.920
listening to this episode of the Bigfoot Society podcast. Every

823
00:50:59.039 --> 00:51:01.559
encounter we share reminds us that the world is bigger

824
00:51:01.599 --> 00:51:04.440
and stranger than we think, and that the truth is

825
00:51:04.480 --> 00:51:07.599
often hiding just beyond the tree line. If you enjoyed
