Season 1

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, we travel to rural Ontario, Canada where a witness describes a terrifying close-range Sasquatch encounter in the dead of winter.


While standing alone near a frozen lake, swamp, and forest edge, the witness realizes he is no longer alone. What followed was complete silence broken by heavy breathing, grunting, and footsteps in deep snow, coming from a massive creature estimated to be 8 to 12 feet tall—less than ten yards away. Unable to see it in the darkness, he could hear it breathe before it suddenly ran through three feet of snow and ice with human-like strides, crashing through the frozen forest.


The encounter didn’t end there. In the months that followed, the witness reports strange owl-like vocalizations, suspected Sasquatch mimicry, and a growing sense that these beings may be intelligent, patient, and deeply connected to the land. The conversation also explores sightings near the Mississippi Lake and River system, swamp habitats, wildlife feeding patterns, and why Sasquatch encounters are often reported near wetlands and remote conservation areas.

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.120
You're listening to BIGFA 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 --> 00:00:30.120
just might change the way you see the woods forever.

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.439
So stay with us, all right, pick for Society. You've

11
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:35.880
got the privilege of talking to Mika Loose today. Mika

12
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:39.679
is an individual that reached out to me from Facebook.

13
00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:43.119
We got connected on that platform and Micca's had an

14
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:48.439
experience from Ontario, Canada. So Miko, welcome to the show today.

15
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:49.200
How are you doing.

16
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:51.479
Well? Very good?

17
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:56.320
Thank you awesome. Yeah, I've been looking forward to having

18
00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:59.600
this conversation for a bit of time to hear about

19
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:03.159
what you've experienced up there in Ontario. We don't get

20
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:07.280
a lot of Ontario calls, maybe just a few, and

21
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:10.319
the map is looking a little sparse up there. Let's

22
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:12.799
make sure you have the time to share what you

23
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:15.439
experienced up there, so feel free to take us back.

24
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.719
When this all started happening, Oria Mika.

25
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.719
Basically, I would say it was about five years ago.

26
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:28.840
I rented like a very primitive shack, basically a garage

27
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:31.280
with the look still in it, and it was in

28
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:36.159
a little village Innsville, Ontario. It's near Highway seven, in

29
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:40.480
between Perth and Carlton Place, which is about an hour

30
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:45.920
from Ottawa. And I basically there's been many nights where

31
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.239
I've gone outside at maybe three o'clock in the morning

32
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:54.000
just to get some fresh air. I've had a little

33
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:56.879
bit of a skin rash because when I was living

34
00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:00.000
at the cabin, I think there was mold in the cabin.

35
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:03.959
But anyways, I was having an allergy problem and so

36
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.599
I went outside one night and it was it was

37
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:14.680
in January, and there was about three feet of snow

38
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:18.560
on the ground and there was a layer of ice,

39
00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:22.120
so everything I had frozen over and it was pretty cold,

40
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:27.280
and I was down by the lake and the end

41
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:29.840
of the peninsula where the end of the peninsula meets

42
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:34.159
the forest, so there's like wet lands there in the summertime,

43
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:38.719
it's like swamp and the peninsula from the lake, but

44
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:41.120
in the wintertime it freezes over, and a lot of

45
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:45.280
people they'll do ice fishing in the wintertime in that area.

46
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:49.680
So one night, around three in the morning, I was

47
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:54.120
standing right by the woodline the forest. In the summer

48
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:57.159
it's like a swampish but it was all frozen over,

49
00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:03.639
and two houses down there is a couple who feeds

50
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:07.479
the wildlife, and what we've noticed it brings in like

51
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:10.360
a lot of beer and things like that. So they

52
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:13.800
always throw like apples and god knows what else they

53
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:17.879
throw on the ground there. One thing, it was me

54
00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:20.400
really quiet and I was outside around three o'clock in

55
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:22.479
the morning. It was dark, and I was just star

56
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:27.319
gazing right by the tree line, and I was just

57
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:31.599
before at least three hours. I was out there for

58
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:34.960
a long time and there was no sound whatsoever in

59
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:40.719
the forest. It was absolutely quiet, not a peak. That's

60
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:45.479
what startles me was all of a sudden, it went

61
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:49.719
from quiet to there was something else in the woods

62
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:55.400
with me while I was in the dark. Because whatever

63
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.479
it was, which I'm suspected was pretty much a sasquatch

64
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:04.000
because it was no bear it wasn't a deer. It

65
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:07.479
was the size of like between eight feet to twelve

66
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:12.879
feet tall. It was huge and massive whatever it was.

67
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:17.079
And it started to move in the forest because it

68
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:19.519
thought it was alone. But I was there in the

69
00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:23.279
dark along the tree line, and it started to walk,

70
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:30.000
and it might have walked about me. I was ten

71
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:34.160
yards five yards, not too far, but it was stumbling

72
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:39.800
around and it was like making noises, like grunting, making noises, grunting,

73
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.000
and it was breathing like it was huge because I

74
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.480
could hear its breadth. It was just like like it was.

75
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:51.279
It was like it was like it was huge. And

76
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.040
that's what Starlet was. Just it was terrifying for me.

77
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:58.240
And for a while there, for maybe a couple of minutes,

78
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:02.560
I was absolutely quiet, terrified, and I didn't know what

79
00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:07.000
to do. I was I was scared, so I ended

80
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:11.560
up making a monster noise too. I was big and

81
00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:14.759
bad to scare it because it was like it was

82
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:17.879
so close to me, and I would say it was

83
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:25.279
at least I would say, ten ten yards away from me.

84
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:31.199
It wasn't far whatsoever. And that's I could literally like

85
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:36.120
hear it breathe, and that's why it was just so terrifying.

86
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:39.160
I wasn't able to see it because it was like

87
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:43.519
pitch dark. It was pitch dark, and what I believe

88
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:47.439
was the fastuatch. It never realized I was there till

89
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:50.560
like I made a loud noise, and then what it

90
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:54.800
did was I scared it and it ran across the

91
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:59.800
frozen forest, and that's three feet of snow, and underneath

92
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:03.839
the no there was debris of like logs and sink

93
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:09.959
holes and water, and plus there's like a layer of ice.

94
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.639
And when it ran through the forest, there's like the

95
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:18.519
forest there's like bushes and branches everywhere, and this thing ran,

96
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:22.879
it ran through the forest. That picked up speed, and

97
00:06:22.920 --> 00:06:25.720
it was like very It started off slow and then

98
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:29.079
it got faster and it ran. I swear to god,

99
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.879
it ran through a forest with three feet of snow

100
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:38.639
and frozen over with ice like an Olympic sprinter, as

101
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:43.800
fast as an Olympic sprinter. And when the weight of

102
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:48.439
the creature, it ran like a man like strides like

103
00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:52.319
a human, but his feet broke through the ice as

104
00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:56.040
he like just started to bolt. He was breaking through

105
00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:58.519
the ice as he went along for quite a long

106
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.480
ways into the forest, and then he went back into

107
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:05.680
stealth mode, and as he got far enough away, he

108
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:09.279
just went back to silent the mode because he was

109
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:12.439
just getting away from He didn't realize I was that

110
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:18.759
close to him. And ever since, I've always I never

111
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:23.399
went out there to check the footprints. And the reason was, well,

112
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:28.240
the next day it snowed, but because I was terrified. Honestly,

113
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:35.959
I was just terrified. And what I realized about the

114
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:42.439
sasquatch is I believe this there's curious creatures, and I

115
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:47.199
scared the sasquatch, so I believe he came back. He

116
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:52.720
came back to the forest to see what scared him,

117
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:56.879
And I believe that what I observed when I was

118
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:03.399
out in the woods was that the sasquatch makes and

119
00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:08.519
mimics a call of an owl. But the owl sound

120
00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:12.800
that the sasquatch makes, it's like a lot deeper, and

121
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:17.000
it always comes from a safe distance away all the time,

122
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.839
so you never even if you went over there, there

123
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.319
would be nothing there. It's always they're making the call

124
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:28.560
at a safe distance, just like communication. They're just letting

125
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:32.000
me know that they're there. But they I would say

126
00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:36.679
that they're all in all their peaceful creatures. I don't

127
00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:40.759
believe that they're They're really hiding as best they can.

128
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:44.440
But I don't believe that they're aggressive creatures. I believe

129
00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:48.399
they're probably spiritual creatures. I don't know if that makes sense,

130
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:50.960
but that's what I think.

131
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:54.840
So you were actually you had a visual of this

132
00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:56.720
creature when you're out there in the woods.

133
00:08:57.799 --> 00:09:01.879
No, No, I didn't, to be honest, I was close

134
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:06.240
to it. That that was the difference. I was so

135
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:09.840
close to the sasquatch. I could hear it breathe.

136
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:10.480
Okay, wow.

137
00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.559
That's why it was. That's why that that's why it

138
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.720
was so terrifying, not the fact that you're seeing it.

139
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.440
You're up close with it, just a couple of five

140
00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:24.480
yards to eight yards under the ten yard range, and

141
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:30.080
it's so big that it just I found that the

142
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:34.720
sasquatch let its guard down because it thought it was alone.

143
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:36.960
And when I went out to the woods to check

144
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:42.720
where the sasquatch was, the I brought another I brought

145
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:46.159
a hunter from the area, and I showed him where

146
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:51.279
I think the sasquatch fides. He comes to the bush

147
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:56.279
in that area, and I showed him how the trees

148
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.360
were laid out in that area and that spot, and

149
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:01.759
I said, that's where he hides because it gives him cover.

150
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:04.600
And I go, doesn't it look like if you were

151
00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:07.320
there in the woods, that's where you would hide. I

152
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:10.720
mean he's like, yeah, like he could see that what

153
00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:15.639
I was talking about. And I heard the sasquatch run

154
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:18.440
like right through the snow and the ice as he

155
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:21.320
crashed through the ice all the way through the forest.

156
00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:22.919
You know how loud that is?

157
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:26.960
Oh, I would imagine it's got to be massively loud.

158
00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:31.759
So going off of massively loud, absolutely so going off

159
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:34.600
of what you heard, then that's where you get the

160
00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:37.679
idea that it's something that is like the size of

161
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:44.200
eight to twelve feet tall. Yes, gotcha, Yeah, that makes sense.

162
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:46.879
I got there very by the way. I think that

163
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:53.200
they're very patient creatures. Patient. That's if you come from

164
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:57.200
a military background, or if you're a hunter, and you're

165
00:10:57.360 --> 00:11:00.480
a hunter and you're very patient for your prey and

166
00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:03.279
you're out not trying to make a peep, and you're

167
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:06.639
not trying to make a sound so not to alarm

168
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:11.840
any other predators that you're out there. And that's what

169
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:17.879
I don't understand. It was quiet four hours and then

170
00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:24.279
all of a sudden, it appeared in that spot. Excuse me?

171
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:29.440
What ink was? What I think is that they're very

172
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:33.840
patient creatures because it was waiting there because down two

173
00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:37.600
houses they feed the wildlife, and it attracts fear and

174
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:40.759
attracts all kinds of other things. So I think that

175
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:45.559
it's the Sasquatch also followed the deer migration, and they

176
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:50.639
also hide out in more swamps swampy area and the

177
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:54.840
area where I was where the lake meets the forest,

178
00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:59.279
and that forest goes for miles and miles all the

179
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:02.360
way to another lake. Like it's a huge conservation.

180
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:06.279
It's huge, okay, And that's is that lakes can never.

181
00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:13.159
No, it would be the Mississippi Lake in river system. Gotcha, yep,

182
00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:16.200
Mississippi Lake and River system.

183
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:18.279
I want to make sure I heard the right area.

184
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:21.759
So you said it's Innsville, which is I N N

185
00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:23.480
I S F I L Is that right?

186
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.879
No? I N N I s N s Ville V

187
00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:29.840
I L L.

188
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:33.000
E got it's.

189
00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:37.080
Like in Sville. And because there's another meme in Ontario

190
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.559
that pops up sometimes a lot, it's called in a

191
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:41.159
still with an f.

192
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:43.279
Y Yep, that's what I was looking at.

193
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:47.679
The one. No, I know, it's up Highway seven towards

194
00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:48.360
att the line.

195
00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:52.399
Oh yeah, this makes way more sense. You are absolutely right.

196
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:54.679
It's right next to a huge like there's a big

197
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:56.480
sanctuary there by the lake.

198
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:00.759
Absolutely yep. And there's another lake. What's the name of

199
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:05.320
the lake. I forget the name. It's called Chelsea Lake.

200
00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:08.480
I'm not sure, but it's a girl's name. And when

201
00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:12.039
you look on the map off to the left, there's

202
00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:18.559
another lake, Oh, Haley Lake. Hailey Lake, that's right, and

203
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.240
that all the way from there to Hale Lake. And

204
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:27.240
that that area is not easy to access because a

205
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:32.320
lot of it is near the lakes is swamp, so

206
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:36.240
it's easier for them to hide. And that's why when

207
00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:40.399
you hear about people about the sasquatch when they stink

208
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:44.559
a lot like or there's a spare smell, I think

209
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:48.519
that's why because they if they did smell, then it's

210
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:53.159
because that is a sign that they are hiding. They're

211
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.559
more in the swampy areas and swamps lake stinct.

212
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:00.720
So this happened around twenty twenty. Then for the last

213
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:02.600
five years, how has this affected you?

214
00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:08.759
Then? Actually, it's affected me, I would say in a

215
00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:15.679
good way. How about the Sasquatch, He affected right, because

216
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:20.480
I'm the one who scared the sasquatch, and the sasquatch

217
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:25.120
while he was scared, so he ran off. I've come to,

218
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.759
I'd come to. I don't know how to put it

219
00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:34.440
in my heart, in my spirit. I feel like I've

220
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:40.440
made peace with the Sasquatch. And like I said, it

221
00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:45.120
was curious about what scared him in that area. So

222
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:50.320
afterwards he was also coming around. And when I went

223
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:54.080
for a walk in the woods a little ways along

224
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.519
the ATIV path, there was a noise in the woods,

225
00:14:59.039 --> 00:15:01.600
but it was off a distance where I wouldn't be

226
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:05.320
able to make it there or on time. And it

227
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:08.960
was a vocal of an owl, but it was way

228
00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:11.879
deeper than an owl, Like it was no owl, but

229
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:15.039
it mimicked an owl. But if you're something that has

230
00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:18.879
like a very deep tone, a very deep tone, a

231
00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:24.120
big creature with a deep tone, it could mimic other

232
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:33.200
creatures and sounds in the woods kind of thing. And

233
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:36.320
then but I didn't feel that I was a threat

234
00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:39.000
to it. It was just curious. It was just a

235
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:42.919
curious creature. But it was letting me know that it

236
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.039
was there. I could feel it. I could feel the

237
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:50.679
eyes on me and when I heard that sound, and

238
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:54.000
that sound of that owl call isn't normal, by the way,

239
00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:57.639
because I'm out outside a lot in the area, and

240
00:15:57.720 --> 00:16:01.200
there's a difference between an owl and then one that

241
00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:05.720
comes from a very deep tone, a very deep place.

242
00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:09.519
And that was the difference between just a regular owl

243
00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:13.519
sound and the sound that the sasquatch make. And I

244
00:16:13.559 --> 00:16:18.000
know that the Sasquatch make other noises too, but I

245
00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:22.879
think they're overall, they're very patient and they're very quiet.

246
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:26.600
That's wait.

247
00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:31.320
You had mentioned that there are also some other reports

248
00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:34.200
from the same area that you've heard over the years.

249
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:41.120
Yeah, I was just talking to who was it. I

250
00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:46.600
was just talking to a fella that told me about peace.

251
00:16:46.679 --> 00:16:50.320
Heard other people or heard about other people in this

252
00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:54.519
in the area that have had encounters. Now I don't

253
00:16:54.559 --> 00:17:00.240
know what those encounters were, but there are experienced people

254
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:07.720
that are outdoors people, and I don't think that they're

255
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:15.200
just seeing a bear or seeing hallucinating. I would say

256
00:17:15.680 --> 00:17:21.400
before my situation, before that that interaction that I had

257
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:25.359
in that moment, I don't think that I believed in

258
00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:29.359
the sasquatch like I didn't judge it, not a judger,

259
00:17:29.400 --> 00:17:34.319
but I said, sometimes just because you haven't experienced a

260
00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:39.400
situation doesn't mean that they could. It could be possibly true.

261
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:44.680
It's just I have a new found respect for being

262
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:49.920
out in the wilderness. Like it's just changed me.

263
00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:55.039
Oh, I'm sure it absolutely has. And is there something

264
00:17:55.079 --> 00:18:00.000
that you had mentioned a few minutes ago you mentioned

265
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.119
and that you feel that they're spiritual creatures? Is there

266
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:07.160
anything specifically that's happened that that makes you think.

267
00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:19.799
That spiritual creatures are? To me, they're They're very patient,

268
00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:24.039
and their traits are deep down. They don't want to

269
00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.480
they don't want interaction, and they don't want to hurt

270
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:33.519
people either. I don't I think that's truly a fact

271
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:37.880
because there's so many sightings that usually there's sightings and

272
00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:42.440
they'll see them or have them on camera, but they've

273
00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:44.920
never I can't say that. I can't say that for

274
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:51.480
other stories. I think that they're part of human They're

275
00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:56.400
an offspring where something to do with the Nephelin giants

276
00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:03.480
from long ago, and I think that they're bred with

277
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:08.039
half of the giants and half human from long ago.

278
00:19:08.279 --> 00:19:12.599
And that's that's what I think. But I think that

279
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:18.559
bear creatures because more likely or not there they don't

280
00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:25.240
just rather go and kill people or I don't know,

281
00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:34.720
like I've seen other shows or people with stories of them.

282
00:19:35.039 --> 00:19:39.720
I don't judge for other people's stories because I just

283
00:19:39.799 --> 00:19:42.240
know what happened to me when I was out.

284
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:47.519
There, So absolutely, yeah, yeah, is this something where you

285
00:19:47.599 --> 00:19:50.279
would want to have an experience like this again where

286
00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:52.880
you're out there and you hear this but you can't

287
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:55.279
see it, and you know that something else is there.

288
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.400
I would love to have more experiences with the sasquatch

289
00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:09.240
because I'm not there to hurt it, and I have

290
00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:13.160
a good I think I'm a good person. I think

291
00:20:13.319 --> 00:20:18.480
that they feel just like they feel intelligence, and they

292
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:22.400
feel a human what a human is like. They can

293
00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:26.119
sense it just like any animal can or you and

294
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:29.240
I can feel when a good person is a good

295
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:32.720
person or somebody that would be bad. I find when

296
00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:36.480
you're when you immerse yourself into nature and you become

297
00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:44.640
one more with the elements. I find then you're more

298
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:50.680
open to meet me having an encounter. And when I

299
00:20:50.759 --> 00:20:53.359
walked out there, I spoke out loud in the woods,

300
00:20:53.400 --> 00:20:56.400
so I tried to let it know that you're always

301
00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.359
welcome into my home to sit by my fire place.

302
00:21:01.920 --> 00:21:06.359
So anyways, come on over, sasquatch and have a cup

303
00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:06.720
of tea.

304
00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:10.720
Absolutely after you did that, did anything out of the

305
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:13.599
ordinary start to happen at home as well? Or is

306
00:21:13.640 --> 00:21:15.519
it just out in the woods.

307
00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:25.559
Previous about four months previous to me having the encounter

308
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:34.200
out in the woods was something that happened back in

309
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:38.160
the city at my home. But you get afraid to

310
00:21:38.319 --> 00:21:44.119
tell people what you thought you saw without making yourself

311
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:48.119
look like you're losing your mind. But I was just

312
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:53.480
sitting on the couch in Stony Creek where my apartment was,

313
00:21:53.519 --> 00:22:00.480
with my mom, and I saw the invisible. I saw

314
00:22:01.079 --> 00:22:08.920
a sasquatch standing in my living room, but it wasn't

315
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:14.720
there physically. It was translucent like a ghost. And I

316
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:17.359
shook my head and looked twice in my seeing what

317
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:20.640
am I seeing. It was there for actually more than

318
00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:24.400
five seconds, so I've really got to look at it

319
00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:29.359
and think, am I losing my mind? I like my marbles.

320
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:33.920
But then I had the experience with this what I

321
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:38.400
believe was a sasquatch in the forest when it was

322
00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:42.880
when it ran through the woods and I got to

323
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:45.359
hear it breathe, and I got to hear it grunt,

324
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:49.599
and I got to hear it walk around a tiny

325
00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:54.039
little bit in the forest before I like lost lost

326
00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:57.880
my cool because I was just terrified. Maybe I should

327
00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:01.079
have been quiet and shut up and not let it

328
00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:04.920
know known that I was there in the woods with it,

329
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:10.000
but I did. I wish maybe I wouldn't been quiet

330
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:13.920
for a little longer or a lot longer. It was

331
00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:15.799
just because I was scared. I did it out of

332
00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:17.359
being scared.

333
00:23:19.680 --> 00:23:24.319
When you had the when you saw the sasquatch that

334
00:23:24.799 --> 00:23:28.440
was more invisible or you could see you could tell

335
00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:31.359
it was there anywhere. Was there anyone else with you

336
00:23:31.480 --> 00:23:33.680
or like even a pet that had a reaction to

337
00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:34.279
it as well.

338
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:38.680
It's funny that you said that because I have this.

339
00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:43.079
I have an orange cat. His name's Sherman, and he

340
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:47.480
was with me when I was that day. I just

341
00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:50.759
I wasn't paying attention to if the cat was but

342
00:23:50.839 --> 00:23:54.599
the cat was there. You know what I got from

343
00:23:54.640 --> 00:23:59.759
that vision of the sasquatch that came in the front

344
00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:05.240
slow door at the apartment was it gave me a

345
00:24:05.359 --> 00:24:10.680
sense of it was a spiritual creature, and it gave

346
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:16.359
me a sense of strength and power. It's a strong

347
00:24:16.480 --> 00:24:20.039
creature with the muscle on that thing is like an

348
00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:24.519
ape or something like. It's very it's jack. It's very Jack,

349
00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:28.319
like you'll. It emanates peace. I don't know it emanated

350
00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:34.559
harmony and it emanated, but it emanated strength. But I've

351
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:39.039
had the connection I feel with it in the part,

352
00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:42.400
but in my spirit is connecting with it not. And

353
00:24:42.440 --> 00:24:47.000
I find that a person that is an outdoors outdoorsy person,

354
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:49.920
you have a better chance of running into a sasquatch,

355
00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:57.720
not by walking around and searching. You're better off hunkering

356
00:24:57.759 --> 00:25:03.839
it down and sitting for hours just and like you're

357
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:07.400
not there. I'm glad you asked that question about that

358
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:11.240
what I saw in the apartment, which is I was

359
00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:15.440
hesitant to tell you about that, just because it was

360
00:25:15.559 --> 00:25:20.759
something that I I It wasn't a physical form to it,

361
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:25.440
but it was invisible like a ghost, and it didn't

362
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:27.759
last for a long period of time, and it was

363
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:31.279
just there for a very short time, and I was sometimes,

364
00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:34.039
am I seeing what I'm seeing? That's exactly what I

365
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:36.880
thought when I was sitting there, because I started to

366
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:41.960
really stare at it. What am I seeing? But that's private.

367
00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:45.319
Yeah, Mika, I want to say thank you for coming

368
00:25:45.359 --> 00:25:47.480
on the show. Thank you so much for your time

369
00:25:47.519 --> 00:25:50.880
this afternoon. And it has been very eye opening about

370
00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:53.640
this certain part of Canada. And yeah, keep me in

371
00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:55.720
mind anything else comes up, Mika.

372
00:25:56.799 --> 00:25:58.839
And remember that's not far from Ottawa.

373
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:03.680
You got it, all right, We'll be in the contact.

374
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:07.200
You have a good one, Okay, anytime. Thank you.

375
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:10.079
Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something

376
00:26:10.119 --> 00:26:13.319
directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're

377
00:26:13.359 --> 00:26:17.119
in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've

378
00:26:17.119 --> 00:26:20.000
seen something that no one can explain, or if you're

379
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:23.240
a National park ranger or forestry worker who's been told

380
00:26:23.279 --> 00:26:26.279
to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot who's seen

381
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:29.599
something strange down on the ground, or if you're with

382
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:33.240
the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you

383
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:36.440
stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And

384
00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:39.880
if you're a firefighter, paramedic or search and rescue responder

385
00:26:39.960 --> 00:26:43.240
who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense,

386
00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:47.559
if you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field,

387
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:50.759
or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something

388
00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:54.240
happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're

389
00:26:54.240 --> 00:26:58.119
a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under

390
00:26:58.160 --> 00:27:01.559
contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report.

391
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.519
If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a

392
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:08.039
spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith,

393
00:27:08.759 --> 00:27:11.839
or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA or

394
00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:15.240
anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't,

395
00:27:16.599 --> 00:27:20.079
then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous.

396
