Forward slash the Big for Society and now let's get on with the show. All right, Big for Society. You've got the privilege of talking to Marci tonight. Marci left an interesting comment on a video which led me to mention it in a believe it was probably a comment video about something she's been experiencing at her house, and then she was able to reach out to me through email and it became a very interesting comma. She's from the northern coast of Oregon, around the Astoria area. But Marcy, it's a privilege to talk to you tonight. I know we've been planning this for a while, but so how are you doing tonight, Marcy. I'm good, Thank you so much. Absolutely, I'm really you know, this has been happening over the last few years. I believe you said two to three years, but I'm actually going to just let you go ahead and take the reins set the stage for us about what happened in this area that you've got going on.

1:32 Okay, So I'm originally from Colorado, and I you know, I have a jeep and i'd always spend time like on the logging roads and the trails, and I've never had anything strange or and I've never I thought Bigfoot was like I thought it was something cute or like a smoky the bear, sort of like friend of the Forest. And I moved here to Oregon in February of twenty twenty one. And my area it's a very small town. It's like six thousand people. We have, you know, a neighborhood, but between our little neighborhoods there's large swatches of forests. So when I first moved here, my front yard is there's a huge river and then there's a forest.

2:28 And I didn't you know, I didn't have time to go explore that forest yet. While I was unpacking, but I noticed that there were like yelling. I couldn't really at first, I thought it was like humans that were fighting, like screaming yelling. At times it sounded like people were being mauled to death. It was it was startling, and it would go on and on. Sometimes it would sound the sound would almost go into a dog sound, and so I maybe assumed that it would upset the neighborhood dogs.

3:09 But I heard it a lot, and I then I would hear gunshots, and so I was like, well, maybe that's what people in Oregon do. I mean, I think I was just really naive. And then you know, about a month after living here, I finally went to explore that forest and I realized this forest is huge, and there's not there's no houses around here, and really it's there's water that divides the forest from my house. And I mean, I've called, I've yelped to my son through there, and sound doesn't really travel, so I really I realized that what was happening in that forest was loud, and you know, I told some people about it, and then I a friend come and stay with me, and she smoked cigarettes, so so she would hear it and she'd come running in and she was like, that's weird, that's not right. I don't know what that is. And every time, I mean, it sounded like fighting or something like screaming. And I heard it a lot, and then I started noticing there were patterns to it. The screaming, the yelling. It would happen a lot when it wasn't raining. I noticed that it was on warmer nights. I noticed it it didn't really matter so much the time of the year. It was more of the weather. And then I just kept

4:40 documenting it. But then I also noticed, so we live, we have a really good post guard here, and I noticed alicopters would come up and they at night, always at my they would be, you know, circling around that these forests. And I just thought I didn't know. I mean, I was so naive. I came from a landlocked town to this ocean town and I met. I asked my neighbor. I was like, what are these helicopters doing on it? And you know there were the block the block hack of the double. I think that's what they're called. The double blades on the top like the military lens, and they would just have her and she was like, there's just I don't know, they just they do what they do. But I so that was another pattern that I started to notice, is when that activity would you know all that yelling, screaming, whooping is But I mean, I've listened to a lot of the ads now and I can tell you that it sounds exactly like some of the sads that these people are recording your podcast different podcasts, and that gives me chills.

5:51 It's pretty scary. But I believe that, you know, I think the government knows about this because Homeland and Security. I noticed on our cat calls, which is like our police departments, people do report some of this screening activity. And I notice home stand Homeland Security checks in. And then I noticed the helicopters. And I've woken up where the helicopter is directly above my house. And I don't know if you've ever been close to a helicopter. I've never been close to one before, but it feels like an earthquake. It is loud, your house shakes, it is startling, and I'd wake up at two in the morning and this helicopter is above my house, and I noticed, you know, it slowed down. But there were periods, you know, where it gets crazy and then it stows down and then it gets crazy. Well, okay, so let me my girlfriend and I we hike a lot through these what we used to. I don't go out in the forest at all anymore, but hike through the forests. And before I never I think if I heard a whoop beforehand, I probably would have never noticed it, and that's because it wasn't on my radar. But one thing that I would notice is the tree cracks. I would hear like a rock, a really loud whack, and then I look around and a tree would

7:26 fall, and oftentimes it was you know, there would be a lot of hedges. There's I mean, it's pretty thick through here, but there would be hedges and I wouldn't be able to see which exact area the tree was falling from. So that happened to me a couple of times. And then out in this forest by my house, we have annual salmon runs and we get a lot of fishermen coming for that and really will set up campgrounds like or by that forest, and so often they I'll go out there the next day, they will completely abandon that all of their stuff, like nice stuff like hammocks, you know, nice tense, and I mean it just sits out there until somebody takes it down. So I don't know why they're rushing out. I mean, I have a pretty good idea why. But so all of this is happening. And then I noticed for a while I was getting like bangs bangs on my house, and I just I thought it was like paranormal. I just didn't know what this was. And at my windows and my all my windows, I have a sliding glass door in my living room and then a glass window, like a glass window right right next to the sliding door, I would find like dead squirrels or hit monks, and

9:00 they weren't they wouldn't be punctured. They were crushed so like their bodies were crushed, so something squeezed them, and I like I would find I still find that quite a bit all around, like just my windows, though not like out in the middle of the yard, like something was almost looking in my windows. So it's just been a lot of that. But then let me see the exact date I sent you. I don't know if you've got a chance to look at the video that I recorded. Right. So I've been talking to my friend Kleb about some of this stuff and he was like, Marsy, you need to start recording, because you know, you just need to record it. And I think when you're in a minute, like you don't think about recording, but like, okay, So last August August twenty four, So a few days leading up to August twenty fourth, around one a I would say I would hear, oh god, it was like I knew it was by people like too they had too late, because I could hear something walking past my house and all I could think of is that is a monster. I felt paralyzed when I heard it. It was that you could hear the steps. I knew they were heavy, and then there was almost like labored breathing, and you know, I would say, I've

10:31 never heard a grizzly bear, but I mean it sounded heavier than even like a bear, and it was just like and then I have a German shepherd. She would look out the window and she would just bark and dark and then all with like a smell would come in through the bedroom and it's like I've heard people describe the smell as a wet dog, but I don't think it smells like a wet dog. I think it smells like law sewage or something like very toxic. It smells so bad, and so I but I was not going to look out the window. I mean, I am a single goal, like I live in his house. I don't know what that is. It's something that you could never even imagine, you know, Like I can't even believe that I heard those sounds. I can't really believe any of this really, But so that I did hear the walking, and I smell to smell again the following night, and then I heard like my trash can lids lifting, and then maybe one or two nights after that, And this really bothers me. And I probably think about this, I don't know, three or four times a day. But I don't know what started first.

11:48 So and I'm talking about when my house got attacked with the apples. I don't know if my dog started barking and the apples started being thrown, or if the apples started being thrown and then my dogs started back. But on August twenty four, I was in my room and I was reading a book and all of a sudden, I so my house is it's two stories. The top floor, it's pretty high up. I'm not really good with measurements, but I mean you could stand on top of a full ladder and you'd reach my top windows. You'd probably have to reach you a little bit.

12:37 It's a very tall house. So all my windows were open. It was hot, it was a summer. I like, I always felt pretty safe in his neighborhood too, so I even looked like my side clus door open and I had the screen closed. And so on August Rey fourth, exactly one o'clock am, I just heard, like book, it was like the hits. They were hitting so hard. And my dog she just started freaking out, like she's whimpering. I remember her just and I was It wasn't in the room that I was in, which was facing the front of the house, the side of my house and on the back of my house, and so the apples. I didn't know there were apples at the time.

13:20 I just thought something was banging on my house. They were hitting my windows and hard, so I could hear this out the hollowey sort of ring, and I was like, it's going to break the windows. Like. It went on for a solid five minutes and then silence, and my dog started, you know, she's looking out the windows, she's running all over and I am just sitting there, like, I didn't move. I was just in shock, and I think, you know, I like, in my mind, I was thinking, this is crazy, this is I thought it was like a paranhormal thing. I don't know why I didn't call the police. I didn't think something was hitting my house from the outside, but so I just sat there and shocked, just like waiting for the sounds again, and it was. It just went completely silent, and then about five minutes later it would start again. It wasn't as hard as the first time.

14:28 There weren't as many apples hitting, but they were still hitting the upstairs windows, you know. And I don't even have an apple train in my yard, which is I'll explain that a little bit. But so, you know, again, a barrage of apples. It was like a full blown assault. And then it stopped. And then at that point I just sat you know, I'm thinking, if somebody's outside. Maybe at this point, I'm starting to think if somebody's outside, my doors opened downstairs, and then they're gonna see me, because the society will be right back after these messages.

15:24 Somebody's gonna see me if they're outside. And so then I just stayed still, and then one last time and I finally pulled out my phone and I'm like, I just need to record these sounds. That third farage of apples was not as extreme as the first one. And then it stopped and everything was silent. I really didn't hear anything after that. There were a few bangs, but they were different, they sounded different, and they were lower. So about three hours later, I finally crawled out of the area, but I got my flashlight, turn on all the lights, and I just started looking around and I let all my dogs out and I went outside and I saw apples all over and I was just in shock. I one, I didn't know where the apples came from too, that's what was hitting my house. I mean, I was just in shock, like I couldn't piece together, like how could this have happened? Why would this have happened?

16:27 What is going on around here? You know? And when I saw how many apples were thrown I counted over. There was like sixty eight apples thrown up my hus I mean they were hitting so hard they were flying into my neighbor's yard, like hitting off the house into the neighbor's yard. Well, then I realized my neighbor, she has an apple tree in her yard. And it's more, you know, it's her house is pretty far from me. So I've told people about this and they're like, oh, it was the wind. Did not pick up apples and throw them over a fence up maybe thirty feet high at I mean, one after the other with that amount of force. I have five or cement siding on my house, which is basically cement, So those apples were flattened on one side, and they were hard apples. It was a hard they were hard hits. And the next morning, the first thing is, as soon as I woke out, I went to my neighbor's house and I knocked on her door, and she has a camera on the side of her house, and I, you know, I told her what had happened, and I showed her the video, and she came and looked at the apples with me, and we took the apples over and we compared them to her tree, and she looked over her camera footage on the side of the house and she caught a dough, a young female dough at one am, so that's all she got. Then her

18:00 camera system completely blacked out. There's nothing on it. And I still didn't know it was bigfoot. Like that's what's so crazy about this is I was like, it's a monster, it's a monster something. I don't know what's happening. I don't know what this is like. I mean, I never believed in it. I didn't know people really believed in it. I thought it was like something silly. I never listened to podcast nothing And then so yeah, they looked over a whole video footage and there's a deer. So after a while, I finally, you know, I opened up about it to one of my friends who lives in Astoria, and he was like, that's bigfoot, and I was like, I just started laughing. I was like, no way, like what you know, and he was like, no, that's bigfoot. You need to start listening. And then he pointed me to some of the podcasts and once I started listening, I started being able to piece everything together on this whole time, she's so obvious that this is a real living whether I mean, I don't know what it is.

19:06 I don't know if it's a gorilla. I don't know if it's a some kind of human. I don't know what it is. But it's real. And a bear did not throw apples at my house. A human definitely did not throw apples at my house. I knew. I know two people in my neighborhood, and they're both adults. They have careers. You know, nobody's There's a police station down the street from my house. If I called the police, they would probably be here in a minute. I don't imagine somebody standing outside for twenty solid, you know, twenty minutes collecting apples and then throwing in them, you know, I just I can't imagine, not to mention the smell of the sounds, everything I've heard in the forest, the tree breaks just and I you know, and after the apples, after the apple incidents, things have actually calmed down here. I have I have nosy in that now. I look at the Warrenton Astoria Police Department. I look at the cat reports because I look at what people, you know, I like to see what people are reporting. And a couple of weeks ago, I noticed there was a call of a woman screaming, there's now a woman missing in my neighborhood. And the helicopters were out in the forest.

20:29 You know, you can look it up for yourself. It's all right there. A detective. I finally put a camera in front of my house, and that might be why this has stopped, because I did hear that if you leave your lights on, if you put cameras out, it will stop. And that's true, it will stop. But a detective actually asked me for some camera footage from around that time, which was it was just only a few weeks ago. So you know, I think this. You know, the Chinook tribe that was the tribe that was here. You know, they say that they are people there. It's another tribe that these fast squatch and I think Sasquatch. I can't remember what they call it, but they say that, you know, they're real, they're here. I think I've noticed in the forest behind my house, which I used to go there all the time. I don't go there anymore, but I've noticed under large, really large trees, there's holes dug so I in my mind, I think, well, maybe that's how they hide so well. Is they might be going underground. But it's all speculation now, So I mean that is that's the bulk of my experience. I don't want any more experiences. I tell them very lighthearted, but they were terrifying. They were haunting, Like I was in tears, especially when it walked by my house. I was definitely really upset during and after the apples and I even still have nightmares about it.

22:04 Just it was just so scary and being alone and like me moving here, like I have, you know, only four friends in this area, so if I don't even know anybody, so it's like for somebody, for a human to attack a house, it doesn't make sense, like why would nobody even knows me? So yeah, I just I always go back to my dog kiss this thing off, barking at it out the window. Or was it interested in Maybe I've heard their interest in women. Maybe because I'm a single woman here, maybe you know I that's what I loved with.

22:45 I just try to piece it together and now I'm just very careful. I don't go out in the forest, I don't camp, I don't do anything around here. I just don't. Marcy's such an incredible account, and I just I don't know how I would have handled that myself, you know, my house being under attack at one am, and then it sounds like you didn't really move for three hours until four am, and then you started, you know, moving around, turning on lights, things like that. But it's it's absolutely horrifying. I definitely have some questions for you about all this, If that's all right. You said you were about sixty eight apples outside. Someone's probably curious what kind of apples were they? Well, oh gosh, they were their half grain, half pink. Maybe they weren't like the big ones like the fujis, I would say, like gala apples. Gotcha?

23:41 Yeah? Did any of them have bite marks out of them? Or it's finger marks like something had really grasped onto it and left maybe like a finger indentation in any of them. I wish that I would have examined then more. But again I still wasn't thinking like Bigfoot. I didn't notice that. I noticed that the apples were in decent condition, but they definitely had some deads in them, probably from maybe the hit. You mentioned that there's been times where you've had dead squirrels and chipmunks crushed by your windows, which is really interesting because I'm just going to say, aside observation for a minute, not the first thing I've heard where there's been animals that have been crushed by suspected bigfoot. I've got reports where you know, grizzly bear have been found with their next broken, foxes that have been crushed, almost like their bodies were wrung. Even there's a report of the hiker or sorry hunter that was found in Talladega National Forest in Alabama, where it was pretty much found with everything popped out of his joints. So that's a very interesting addition to the mental folder I have of different creatures being crushed and that doesn't happen anymore,

25:12 does it? No, it doesn't ever since I put cameras out and I turned on the lights. I mean, this is like a span over a week. I don't It's so weird because there were so many and all at just the windows and just for that period of time. And when you pick the animal I met, these girls were beautiful. When you pick them up, you could just feel that they were crushed. And I looked for puncture ones. I thought, you know, maybe in animals being around here and chomping on these things, but they looked like they were sleeping, but that's just smashed, so you couldn't tell if their necks were broken, the head was facing opposite direction, then should be anything I thought, I mean there were Yeah, It's like when I picked them up, I realized they were just so lit like rigamortis. You know, you have you know, dead animal before you know, and rigamortis wasn't a factor in it because they were just so I just crushed up like squoshy. I don't know how to explain it, really like you could tell that their their their bodies were broken.

26:25 Could you tell if it was a situation where maybe it was thrown against the house or it was left there, maybe some sort of gifting situation. That's actually a really good question. I haven't thought about that. To me, it felt I don't know. And see that's that's something that bothers me a lot too, because I mean it goes back to the question was it targeting me or was it targeting my dogs? And maybe you know I was trying to lure dogs out or maybe it was like a hunting strategy to get a hold of that, because so I have I actually have three dogs and there if a doe or anything walks by here, they're so annoying. Their heads are out the window, you know, yapping. So I don't know if it was like messing up maybe the way that it hunted, or it's just obnoxious. I don't know. Yeah, that's hard for me because I go back and forth all the time. It's just, man, there's a lot of questions I have about this one, because it's like, if there are chuck and apples at your house, you know, who's to say they weren't, you know, chuck and squirrels and chipmunks. Maybe they couldn't get close enough to leave it there because you've got the dogs, the three dogs.

27:44 But you know a lot of speculation there as well. But at any time, did you see any weird footprints or any indentations around the house, maybe by where those chipmunks were found. Well, one thing that I did notice is where the chipmunks were found, there was there was like the dirt right there just all of a sudden was like really disrupted, so it was grass. And I noticed this sounds so weird. There's a path and this house when I moved in, I don't think I noticed that there was a path. But now there's like this weird sort of trail from the front yard to the to that window in the backyard. And so I didn't see footprints, but I noticed a path had been formed, and I don't walk.

28:37 I mean, I don't walk that path. It's a weird path. And so that I thought that was really interesting. It's right next to the house, so that's really weird. It's not like along the fence like my dogs did it. And I noticed scrapes on the wood fence, but I didn't. I wish that I would have known about bigfoot and like some of the information that people are putting out there, because I think I would have well, I definitely would have contacted the BFRO immediately. I mean I feel like that was such a excuse me, sorry, I feel like that was such a waste, like not a waste, but I feel like there could have been so much evidence gathered in that moment, in those during that week, especially that now like I found out too late about this. Well, I wouldn't beat yourself up about it, but I mean, you can do that.

29:33 You can only do the best that you can, and you were trying to figure it out and get through back to normal life. But so you said a beat down path, did you say from the woods to your window the front of my house. So there's in the front of my house, there's my driveway and there's cement, and then along the house very close to the house though something sneaky. That's how close there's a path that it must have been stamping down the grass. I don't know how long it's been coming, you know, coming around that corner. And then it's just right up against the house. And then that window is right in the backyard on that same corner, so it's like just just lying and it's one path. There's no other pods in my yard. It's just where that one window is.

30:18 So, I mean, it just gives me the chills thinking maybe something was like looking in this window in my living room. And I definitely close my blinds before it gets dark. I feel like I live a little bit like shuttered and like in almost a prison like some and I will not go outside. And if I have to get something from the store after dark, like I don't want to go out to my jeep. I don't want to if I have to go, if I mean I have to absolutely go, I will run to my jeep run, and I mean just hearing it walk. I think that that alone, no way that is so terrifle big for society will be right back after these messages. How wide was that is that trail that was beat down by your house? It's only about it's about maybe three no, not three feet, maybe about a foot and a half. Okay, it's small. Yeah, you said you talked to your one neighbor that was associated with the apple tree. Did you ever did you talk to any other neighbors to see if they've ever had anything's happen in your neighborhood about potential

31:52 bigfoot interactions? No, I really want to approach the neighbor across from me. I think he might have had an interaction the other night. He was out in his truck and he's a very sane, older man, very kind. He was right on that river and he was out there just yelling and honking his horn and he was like getty or like yelling at at something. And then the police were at his house the following day just on a just hey, how's it going, what's going on? You know? I think people around here know what's going on. I think I would love to go out and talk to the neighbors. But I don't never know how to approach it or notice anything weird around here. I mean, I've been laughed at when I've talked about this to some of my friends, and it's just for me. You're laughing at me. I'm not. I don't me telling you this story. One it's just bizarre. Two it's I was terrified and it's unvalidating. But three, it's really not funny. It's not funny. It's a real thing. And when you experience it for yourself and you actually listen to what people go through, like I've I listened to your Oakridge episode, Like tears started coming down my eyes because I just think that is if I would have seen it, I don't think I'd ever be okay again. They're scary. That's a tough episode. Yeah, the Oakridge one. Absolutely.

33:25 Yeah, I'm just as sorry that you had you have to go through people making fun of you for this. You didn't ask for this to happen to you, and now you have to deal with, you know, just trying to get back into normal life. Yeah, that's just that's terrible. When over the last few years, did were there were there any point when you would hear sounds outside or when you're out in the forest, things like that, stuff that didn't really belong, just weird sounds at all. Well after I started recognizing the sounds, Yes, I hear them all the time. I can recognize now what the tree. I wouldn't say their tree knocks.

34:09 I would say their tree cracks. Like they're very loud. I hear that. I sometimes you can hear them hollering. I think they fight with each other, or maybe it sounds like they fight, so I think sometimes maybe another one might come in, or maybe they're hunting. I don't know. I hear the yelling, and it sounds very It sounds like a man, but it also it sounds like a dog. It sounds very much like a mix of animals. It doesn't. It sounds human, but so much louder. Hear that mostly a lot at night. I hear it all the time.

34:50 And then but I don't think i'd I don't think I've heard like a quiet like a day whoop, but I can now recognize like I do hear or I wouldn't say it's a whoop, I'd say it's like I don't know if that it doesn't really do it justice, but it doesn't sound like a whoop to me, that's really interesting. Do you ever hear anything that sounds like a baby crying? I don't know. My neighbors have a brand new baby. No, I've never you know, But like I said, you know, so there's an okay, right across the Columbia River, there is a forest over there and it's called keep Disappointment in Cape Disappointment. I've heard the same sort of sounds like the yelling. I've heard that weird Oh, I've heard that weird chattery sound where it sounds like they're speaking a different language.

35:42 I've actually heard that while I was in my living room and I had that window open, and I've heard it almost sounds like a chanting or a mumble or very quietly they It was right behind me, and for a minute, I was like, can I hearing things? You know? And it stopped as soon as I like took alert to it and I looked outside. I don't see anything, and then it stopped. So I've heard that chattering, but in that forest over there, it keped Disappointment. I've walked through. I've gotten like ten feet in that forest and had tree cracking and breaking just I mean non stop, and it wasn't enough to make me leave it.

36:23 I was like, I don't want a tree to fall on my head. Maybe this forest is you know, so from your living room you're hearing what sounds like language out in the woods one time, and it was not in the woods. It was in my backyard, okay, yeah, and it was something I couldn't You can't understand it. It's it's like a foreign language and it's just quiet, whispery sort of chatter. Is it like that? Have you heard the Sierra sounds at all? Well, i'd listened. I don't know if do you have it? I don't have it. But you did say, can you explain a little bit more? When you you it said it sounded like a foreign language. What that explain? What that means? It sounded okay, I'll try to do it. Okay, it sounds like this. It's like very It was very quiet, like you could tell it was talking, but you couldn't make out the words. But maybe like a Latin, like a quiet a Latin sound. But I just didn't understand. And it was just like, it's pretty scary. It's very creepy.

37:29 It's a creepy sound, and it's of course at night, you know, eleven to learn. I am wow. I mean that lines up with things I've heard over the years to do with people hearing what they think is bigfoot language. After your interactions, at any point, did you start to have affected dreams at all? Well, I, well, I've had nightmares, but you know, that's pretty much it. I was getting sleep paralysis around that time as well, which is something I've never had before. Was that before or after or just steering? It was before pretty much from when I started moving in, when I moved in here about you know, a few weeks act where I moved in here that started and then the sounds out there. It's been interesting living here. There's something I don't know what it is about Oregon in this land or I just I lived to Colorado. Like I said, I've been all over Colorado. I have never experienced anything like this. Was the house vacant before you bought it. There was one person that lived here before me, and it was it's a brand new house.

38:49 I never scared me and she was like, you know, I think that they when the house was big, they pulled up like a bunch of animal bones, so that you know, that's just something she told me. And I asked her what carn and she was like, I don't know. I just saw that they were bens being paid out, which wears me out, pulled out of the house or the ground when they would get ready to do the concrete. Really well, yeah, so I don't know anything about that. So I know this it can be. But if you don't want to talk about this specific thing, you don't have to. But can you go into any more detail about the sleep paralysis and how that happened, like right after you moved in things like that, Well, it kind of started off, the sleep paralysis. It started off slowly. And what happened was I it's actually really weird. I would go to sleep and it was like falling asleep, fall asleep, and then any of dream you fall asleep ageat and at that time and I had this, I did have a weird dream and it was I would say, an out of body experience. So I could tell you about that dream if you want. It's very odd and it coulked my grandma out. It involved her and it just really rated her out.

40:17 And then I would wake up and I would think I was awake and I but then I snap awake again. The sleep paralysis is like you wake up twice, so you wake up into your dream and you're like, oh, I'm awake, and you literally say I'm awake, and then something will wake you up and your body is still you cannot just wake up. You can't just get up. It's like your body is so heavy, like you could just move your eyes and you can. You really can't make that words yet. It's I think it's like close to being dead. I don't know, but that's what it reminded me of, and it's very scary. I didn't see anything like I've heard of people seeing different entities and shadow people around that experience. I never saw any of that. But I did see something like that when I was awake awake. So you said you saw something like a shadow person when you were awake, Yes, I saw a shadow person.

41:23 Yes, same time period, right after I moved in here, so just to try to get a timeline, so you moved in, started having sleep paralysis, you saw figure around the house, and then after that the Bigfoot related type things started happening as well. Yes, so I saw the shadow figure. I saw it once wide awake. I was working, sitting at my desk. I saw a shadow figure. It had a chin, it had it looked like it had a hood. It was not incredibly huge. It was at that four feet hill. I saw it run and it ran fast, and my first thought is, holy crap, do I have a vitamin deficiency? And so I started taking all these vitamins and I was like, man, that's not good. What's happening. And it was weird.

42:13 There's this thing that happens where it's almost like you're sort of in a dream state, like it gives you like a boggy brain. And then I started taking my vitamins and I'm totally fine. I'm normal, like all tho stuffing. I ride my bike all the time. I do not I'm not a drug addict. I don't look that. I don't drink. I like my lifestyle is, you know, it's very clean. I live very clean. And so I saw the shadow thing. And then about three or four years later, I saw the shadow thing again. And then my girlfriend was here for the week and she was helping me unpack, and then we heard mimic mimicking sound that sounded like my son in his voice, and he wasn't home when it was at night, and it said my name, but it wasn't exact. It sounded like it was like a recording almost, and that really freaked her out. She got really scared. She's, I don't know how you can live in this place. I don't know how you can live in this house. It was the same lady that smoke cigarettes that I told you about that heard the sentence outside. So she experienced a lot of this with me on and off. We also saw orange ships in the sky, like in the forest. We saw them. And what's weird is I noticed a while ago, like right after I moved in, with the orange orbs,

43:44 you can always see them through your phone screen. Sometimes you can only see them through your phone screen. And it's so weird how we stumbled on that it was that same my friend. She was like, oh, I want to see what the stars look like. And we were face timing, and you know, she was like, I love organs so much, and you know, and I was like, oh, do you want to see and so I like put her on you know weird this time, and I like loot the phone around and I was looking through the screen and then I looked with my eyes and I looked through the screen. I'm like, what is that orange thing? And she's that orange thing and I was like, yeah, I can't see that with my regular eyes. And she was like and I was like, no, I can't see it with my regular eye, you know. And I mean it was really weird. And then all of a sudden, boom, it just it went off, turned off, and she was like, what the heck? What is happening in organ So I've seen that. I've seen that four times I haven't. It left me feeling really afraid again. It's a doom feeling, like like you're like, there's a doom and gloom that's going to happen to you when you see these things.

44:49 And then the bigfoot stuff started like right after that, the stomping, the walking by stomping. It sounded like, I don't know, like stomping. I would say, did weird stuff happen when you moved to Orient? Did you have weird stuff happen in Colorado? Too? No? I never did. Wow, it just all went crazy once you moved into this house. Yes, Oh my goodness. You know, ever since that apple incident with the cameras. You know, I don't have any of the stuff anymore. I don't I'm not going to go out in the forest. I'm not going to test it. I'm going to take this seriously. I've seen David Pilatos and the Missing four one one, I see the CAD calls. I know that, you know, there are things going around going on around here, and it's not always reported, and you know, it doesn't just it doesn't get a lot of media attention. And I think the government knows about these things, and I don't know why there's not disclosure. Maybe because people will come out and look for them. I don't know. I think about that all the time as well. But it's I feel that they're dangerous.

46:06 I mean, I don't think that. I mean hearing people's stories like nobody's going to be friends with one of those, no way, it feels dangerous, very dangerous. Wow. I'm just glad you're at the point where you've got the camera up and it seems like you're not having to deal with anything as of this time. I am too. I mean, I do enjoy I wish that, you know, I wish more people would just come forward and talk about it. But at the same time, I don't. It's interesting because I was just great. I was like, I wonder if you UFOs are real, Let's go look at the stars, Let's go sit on top of the cheep like like this day dreamer. And I feel like, I maybe you have to be careful what you ask for because them coming here and experiencing all of this, it's just such a mystery as its location.

47:00 Did I do something? You know? Was I asking for those? You know? It's just so many questions And how long have you been trying to see if you could experience something in your life? Well, I would say I've always been like a stargazer always, But I think I started thinking about UFOs and probably around twenty seventeen when I got my GEP and I could go on trails like that country and you know, hang out like with the top off and so yeah, I mean, you know, we'd watch every astral event that's happening. But yeah, I think it's probably moving here. I think there's something about Oregon. Yeah, I mean, that's man, that's what I hear. You know, the people I talk to that are associated with Orgon, You guys have some wild stuff that happens out there. And yeah, I'm excited to go out to Oakridge and next month, so that'll be a good time. But is it for the festival? Yeah, it is, yep, yep. I think I saw cool. Yeah, that's really cool. So I mean that's pretty much it. I you know, as far as my encounters, I mean, there's so many of them, as far as like the sounds, but it's just the same sort of stuff over and over. Marcia. I'm glad that you've reached out to me and that we were able to have a chat about what you've experienced. And the
