What happens when unexplained encounters follow you across the country?


In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Andrea shares a chilling journey that stretches from the woods of Maryland, through rural West Virginia, and deep into Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula. What begins as strange sounds and unsettling activity slowly becomes something harder to dismiss—patterns, proximity, and moments that feel far too intentional.


Years of experiences, multiple locations, and the growing realization that whatever she encountered may have been aware of her long before she understood what was happening.

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.839
You're listening to Big for Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron.

2
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:05.639
In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to

3
00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:08.400
bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've

4
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:12.759
seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers

5
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:16.719
to 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 --> 00:00:32.520
So stay with us, all right, Pick for Society. Get

11
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:35.159
the privilege of talking to Andrea today. Andrew is a

12
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:39.840
listener of the show that we got connected about her

13
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:43.920
wanting to share some things that she's experienced over the years,

14
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:47.600
and really one side of the US to the other,

15
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:52.640
from Maryland over to Alaska and West Virginia as well.

16
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:55.920
So we'll be chatting about a few different places today.

17
00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:58.280
But welcome to the show, Andrea. How are you doing.

18
00:00:59.359 --> 00:00:59.960
I'm doing great.

19
00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:02.399
Thank you Jeremiah for having me, and thank you for

20
00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:03.479
all that are listening.

21
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:09.319
Absolutely, it is a fun, fun time. As we were

22
00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:12.400
talking about before, I really enjoy being able to talk

23
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:15.359
to people from all over really all over the world

24
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:20.120
now and we've had some fun conversations. But you know, Andrea,

25
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.439
feel free to take us back to when this first

26
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:26.719
started for you, when you first started realizing that you

27
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.920
were involved with something out of the ordinary.

28
00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:33.840
Yeah, it definitely was out of the ordinary for sure.

29
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:37.239
Okay, So yeah, the one in West Virginia definitely.

30
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:37.760
Is my highlight.

31
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:41.480
But Ion, and thank you for all of that. I've

32
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:44.000
called in and told your stories because it gave me,

33
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:47.280
you know, some ideas of maybe what was happening with me,

34
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:50.000
and the courage to come forward with my story as well,

35
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:55.359
and also to identify that in Maryland, this definitely seems

36
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.200
to me was an encounter of a sort.

37
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:00.879
So I'll take you back.

38
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:05.400
It was like the end of May of twenty twenty one,

39
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:09.520
and since then he and Cock Maryland down on Hickson Road,

40
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:11.240
which is on Sidling Hill.

41
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:15.599
To vadel Geological thing. Check it out. It's pretty cool.

42
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:19.960
AnyWho this property I was on, it was there for

43
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:22.639
three years plus.

44
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:25.599
It was a horrifying property to begin with.

45
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.000
To pull up it's like your first building to see

46
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:32.479
is just very dilapidated. It's called Hicks and Feed. It's

47
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:35.840
very known there and it's been around for a long time.

48
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.280
It used to be a feed store, like a truck stop.

49
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:40.680
It had kind of like this old hotel type of

50
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:44.240
situation that was dilapidated. There was a small cottage and

51
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:48.039
then the main cottage we lived in. The property was

52
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:54.199
set on six point six six acres, and I, being

53
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:57.039
a sensitive person and I have other friends that are sensitive,

54
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.199
would come to the property and just knew something was

55
00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:03.639
a miss to begin with. There was this instance a

56
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:06.280
gentleman had dropped off a car, was a tow truck

57
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:09.840
driver and he was a paranormal investigator and had been

58
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:13.680
to Penhurst. It had been to like really terrifying places,

59
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.759
and that guy literally dropped the car.

60
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:17.439
At the end of the drive.

61
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:18.840
When we got down there was like, I need to

62
00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:20.719
get out head. This is the scariest place I've ever been.

63
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.960
And I definitely saw some weird stuff. I experienced some

64
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:27.800
weird stuff throughout the years of being there. I was

65
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.800
getting out of there because I was in a pretty

66
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:34.199
terrible situation in the relationship and it was towards the end,

67
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:36.479
and you know, I hadn't really broke the news to

68
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:39.280
the person I was leaving, But we were all sitting

69
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:42.199
around the fire. There was a couple there's a woman

70
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:45.560
and her boyfriend, and then then a person that rents

71
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:46.840
from us was there.

72
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:48.840
My ex was there.

73
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:51.439
So it was like five of us around this little

74
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:53.080
fire down by the lower cabin.

75
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.599
So when you come from the main road, to your left.

76
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:58.800
Is like this broken down home, and then you get

77
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.840
up a little bit further there's a yellow workshop shed.

78
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:05.199
Next to that, there was a lot of giant black

79
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:06.120
walnut trees.

80
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:08.599
I don't know if any of your listeners are familiar.

81
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:11.560
With black walnut, but they're big and they're huge anyhow,

82
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:13.960
and then next to that was the kind of hotel

83
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.240
and that was dilapidated. Across from that it is the

84
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.920
cabin that we stayed in. So the cabin before our

85
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.199
cabin is where we were sitting around the fire, which

86
00:04:22.439 --> 00:04:27.160
was to me directly, I'm facing the yellow building. This

87
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.480
girl's kind of got her back to it, and then

88
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:30.879
the the rest of the people, so I'm kind of

89
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:35.279
the only one facing the building, the tool place, the shed,

90
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.160
the workshop shed, the big yellow one with the big walnut.

91
00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:40.120
Next to the big walnut tree. So there's saying.

92
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:43.319
There were conversating and talking, and I kind of just

93
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:46.680
carved into the dirt, you know, amc out because I was,

94
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:48.480
you know, I was leaving, and I knew I was leaving,

95
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:49.959
and I was just kind of like, I'm out.

96
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:51.800
Of here kind of thing, like my last message to

97
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:56.680
the land, I guess. And all of a sudden, I.

98
00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:04.519
Started hearing the black walnuts getting like rhythmically thrown at

99
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:07.199
the side of this yellow building that I'm facing now.

100
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:11.920
Mind you, it's about twenty five yards from me, and

101
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:15.120
it's raised up so there's a retaining wall and then

102
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:18.639
the yard and then the building, so we're down below,

103
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.720
so it's like you know, angular up. So AnyWho, it's

104
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:27.480
it continues to throw these wallets, and I'm like, man,

105
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:31.759
that's one talented raccoon man. And it was so much

106
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.720
that even like the sound was so rhythmic and intentional

107
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:38.079
that the girls setting next.

108
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.920
To me with her back to the situation, she.

109
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:42.639
Kind of turned and she looks back and then she

110
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:44.920
kind of looked at me, you know, looks like what's

111
00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:48.319
that And I just kind of gay a look back,

112
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:52.839
like I don't know. Well, the sound continues, these walnuts

113
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:56.079
continue to get tossed against that building the side of

114
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.560
the building, and it raises the attention.

115
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:01.680
To my dog blue nose pit at the time.

116
00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:05.040
There, and so she goes up and around because she

117
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:06.920
can't get up over the wall, so she goes up

118
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:09.639
the driveway and then up to the yard part and

119
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:12.439
starts getting closer to the building. So I'm like, well,

120
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:14.519
if my dog's checking this out, I need to check

121
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.439
out this raccoon.

122
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:17.519
So as soon as.

123
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:20.040
I get up, I take like, I don't know, it's

124
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:25.120
probably like ten steps, and I'm I'm you know, I'm

125
00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:27.480
still in front of the retaining wall, so you know,

126
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:30.439
I am only five four so you know another's six

127
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.800
seven inches above it, you know, kind of dow. So

128
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.600
I get closer to the wall and I'm kind of

129
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:36.879
like skiing in the tree.

130
00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:42.040
And all of the sun, all of the branches in

131
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:49.240
this tree violently and viscerally start shaking like I'm like,

132
00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:52.480
I ain't no raccoon, Like that doesn't happen with raccoon.

133
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:56.399
There's not enough weight a bear. I'm like, oh, maybe

134
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:58.120
it's a bear. But then I'm like, how does a

135
00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:02.360
bear take a way walnut? And be like Dirk Dirk

136
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:05.079
Dirk and just keep doing something like that. That's not

137
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:06.480
what they're gonna do, you know what I mean, they're

138
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:09.319
gonna You're gonna hear them get into that tree to

139
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:10.639
begin with climbing up.

140
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:13.519
We're not that far. I'm gonna hear that stuff. So anyway,

141
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:17.759
I just want you your listeners will know and people

142
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:18.839
will know that.

143
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:23.199
Fear of that's cold and starts from like the pit

144
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:25.439
of your stomach. It just goes outwards to all of

145
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:28.000
your body, like your limbs, like basically your brain saying

146
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:29.879
get out of here and now.

147
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:34.279
So I didn't want to, I.

148
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:37.800
Guess, you know, And also self preservation and instinctual survival

149
00:07:37.879 --> 00:07:39.920
kind of kicks in two. I knew not to like

150
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.879
turn around and run, so I literally just do this

151
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:47.279
super sual turn about, but my body is just screaming

152
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:50.000
to run, so you know, I kind of, like, you know,

153
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.519
kind of hustle back to the fire. And the girl

154
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:55.360
looks at me, and I didn't realize she was watching

155
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:56.839
this entire thing unfold.

156
00:07:57.639 --> 00:07:59.319
I was so afraid I was gonna be the only one.

157
00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:00.879
So as I get to the fire, and.

158
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:03.000
I mean, I have what I'm talking about now, and

159
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:06.759
the girl just I mean her face. I saw the

160
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:09.279
fear in her face as well, and I was like,

161
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:09.959
did you see that?

162
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:12.360
And she's like, yeah, what the heck was that? And

163
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:15.319
I'm like, I don't know, I don't know.

164
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.920
And I just kind of like sat back down, and

165
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:22.439
you know, there wasn't much more I could do just

166
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:24.240
kind of accept it, and there was enough of us

167
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:25.040
around that I'm.

168
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:27.480
Like, well, I could be faster and jumped down this wall.

169
00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:30.639
I don't know. So anyway, I mean, nothing really came

170
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:34.639
a bit, just you know, the violent shaking. Within a

171
00:08:34.679 --> 00:08:38.559
few minutes after that event, the girl sitting next to

172
00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.600
me kind of like nudged her boyfriend and was like.

173
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:43.799
You know, we got to go, and I was like, yeah,

174
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:45.000
that's cool. I'm going to go to bed.

175
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:45.399
You know.

176
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:47.320
I kind of went in, and then you know, the.

177
00:08:47.360 --> 00:08:49.559
Neighbor and my ex at the time, they you know,

178
00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:51.000
they hung out by the fire, and you know, I

179
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:54.519
didn't hear any kind of weird scenarios about that. But

180
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:57.879
that was the one in Maryland that I didn't really

181
00:08:58.000 --> 00:08:58.679
at first come.

182
00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:00.240
Up with a bigfoot in my brain, you know what

183
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:00.519
I mean.

184
00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:03.559
I was more of like I was thinking more supernatural

185
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:05.960
because I had so many supernatural things happen, Like I

186
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:09.279
had actually seen, you know, this black figure in my

187
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:11.240
house and it was all of like I don't know,

188
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:15.879
four foot tall, and uh, it was just all in black.

189
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:16.519
A black veil.

190
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:19.799
There's a couple of times like I thought a cat

191
00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:23.080
had jumped from like one of the closets to the

192
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:25.320
other closet, and you know, I'm looking for the cat,

193
00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:27.559
like there is no cats. There was just like an

194
00:09:27.639 --> 00:09:31.440
ample amount of super paranormal stuff that was happening there.

195
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:35.200
So I kind of, you know, blamed the paranormal on

196
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:37.879
that one until I heard, you know a few of.

197
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:41.039
Your callers, you know, call in and explain their.

198
00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:44.039
Stories in situations such as that, you know, with the

199
00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:47.200
branches you know, shaking so violently and in that So

200
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:50.039
in that regard, that one was, you know, I would

201
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.039
say my first thing. And that was in May, the

202
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.759
end of May in twenty twenty one. So as I

203
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:57.919
was getting out of that relationship, I was a friend

204
00:09:57.960 --> 00:09:58.360
of mine.

205
00:09:58.480 --> 00:09:59.919
It basically got me into.

206
00:09:59.759 --> 00:10:02.519
West Virginia at a mutual friend of hers who had

207
00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:03.320
an extra room.

208
00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:07.440
Lovely gentleman uh TC was his name, Older gentleman.

209
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:12.120
So I get out into West Virginia and like probably

210
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:16.600
I don't know, first second week in June, and it

211
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:17.200
was hot.

212
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:18.679
It was super super hot.

213
00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:21.600
And this this guy was like a real off, gritty

214
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:23.840
kind of guy in the sense like you know, we.

215
00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:26.159
Never had our hot water heater turned on.

216
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.960
For you know, electrical classes and you definitely know ac

217
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:33.039
unless it was like over ninety eight degrees. So I

218
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:35.120
knew I was moving to Alaska. So I was like,

219
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:37.480
this is a great opportunity then for me to like

220
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:40.080
learn survival camp And I was always a camp from always.

221
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:42.320
I've always been an outdoor girl always all my life.

222
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:45.480
I spent my childhood in the woods. We all did

223
00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:47.720
the last of the feral children of a gen xer,

224
00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:49.559
so you know, we.

225
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:51.279
We were out there. We were always out in the wilderness.

226
00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:54.039
So AnyWho, knowing I was coming here, I wanted to

227
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:58.000
you know, really dial in my survival techniques and you know,

228
00:10:58.120 --> 00:10:58.639
just stuff.

229
00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:01.080
And I really enjoyed Hammock camping.

230
00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:04.679
I thought that was really fun and very free way

231
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:07.879
of camping because you know, it's very minimalistic and light,

232
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:10.240
so you can kind of get into anywhere walking and stuff.

233
00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:14.519
So anyway, in West Virginia, I get there and I

234
00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:16.440
get settled in and I was like, all right, you know,

235
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:17.759
and you have this nice little.

236
00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:24.559
Backyard that so in the backyard the pine trees, a

237
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:27.399
nice open space, great spot, couple of trees together for

238
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:28.840
a perfect setup for a hammock.

239
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:31.320
And then there was a couple other really cool trees.

240
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:34.360
That on so the end of his property there was

241
00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:37.799
this really established game trail. I mean, it was great.

242
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:39.840
And I'm one of those chicks too that when I hike,

243
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:42.960
I find game trails. It's probably not the safest thing

244
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:44.240
to do sometimes.

245
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:44.600
But whatever.

246
00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:47.519
Anyway, I like to follow off the beaten path and

247
00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:48.799
see where the animals go and.

248
00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:49.320
What they're up to.

249
00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.559
So AnyWho, I decided, oh, wouldn't it be a treat

250
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.240
to string my hammock up along this game trail, and

251
00:11:58.320 --> 00:11:59.960
it will be really cool if like any animal walk

252
00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:01.639
by and I get to hear it and see it.

253
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:04.159
And that would be really, like so cool. So my

254
00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:05.000
wish came true.

255
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:09.759
I that morning I woke up to uh, the snort

256
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.000
of a buck, you know, and they're like mad or whatever,

257
00:12:13.039 --> 00:12:13.480
and they're.

258
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:17.399
Like and it was wild. So I was like, this

259
00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:17.919
is so cool.

260
00:12:17.960 --> 00:12:19.519
So I get but I got my you know, my

261
00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:22.039
camera out and my phone and I recorded sound and

262
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:23.759
I'm like, oh, this is so cool because I couldn't

263
00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:26.159
quite get a visual on it, but I definitely heard it.

264
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:28.000
And I was like, ah, you know, it's gotta be what.

265
00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:29.879
It is, but I trust but verified.

266
00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:32.840
So you know, later on that morning, I had coffee

267
00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:35.440
with TCU, who was I was renting from.

268
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:37.039
And I was like, oh, listen, you know, I got.

269
00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:39.279
This recording that happen last night and this morning. It

270
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.039
was probably like around four in the morning, five in

271
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:43.799
the morning, just that time, and he's like, oh, yeah, yeah,

272
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:45.960
that's a buck cool. I was like, all right, I

273
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:48.720
said that's awesome. And I was like, tonight, I'm going

274
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:51.559
to move my stuff over so the poor tin can

275
00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:53.559
walk by it. And I want to anger the critters man,

276
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.320
So I decided to bring my hammock up so that

277
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:01.240
my feet were facing the game trail with my head

278
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:04.879
was up towards the house, up towards the property. And

279
00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:07.039
I also wanted to learn about like how to use

280
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:09.399
a tarp, and there was like different things on YouTube.

281
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:12.440
I was learning like different ways. So I had one

282
00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:14.840
that was like I had the back to it. The

283
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:17.200
tarp is on the on the ground to the back

284
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:19.240
and then over youo, so like I don't know what

285
00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:20.759
they call it, but like a sea if you will.

286
00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:22.720
And then my hammock's in there, and it was a

287
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:25.320
deeper hammock, so when you got in it, you were

288
00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:27.759
really down there and nothing could see you. And I

289
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:29.240
was like, oh, that's you know, that's really cool. It's

290
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:31.120
kind of like a little hunting blind, if you will.

291
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:36.399
So anyway, I had my friend Tec was like, listen,

292
00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:38.600
you know, here's a you know, it's a firecracker in

293
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:39.960
case the bear combs you.

294
00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:41.799
Just like that, I'll hear, I'll come.

295
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:43.799
To the balcony up top with the gun and I'll

296
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:47.720
scare the bears off or anything weird like apple and.

297
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:53.200
So anyway, I also had a metal rake. You know

298
00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:56.919
there's rinks with the metal fingers on them, and anyway,

299
00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:57.480
so I had that.

300
00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:00.519
Yeah, so I had that at the end of the

301
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.759
foot where my hammock is. And I did this intentionally

302
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:06.159
for like, oh, if an animal decided to like walk through,

303
00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:07.960
it would tri a bit scared away, you know, kind

304
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:10.759
of a booby trap, you know, a very innocent, non

305
00:14:10.799 --> 00:14:11.840
harmful booby trap.

306
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:16.000
So I have that at the end of the hammock and.

307
00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:20.679
I'm settling into to bed that night, and it was

308
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:24.200
Pollie around I don't know, seven thirty ish.

309
00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:26.360
Around that time.

310
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:30.159
It was just just about getting dark. So I'm all

311
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:31.639
in and I'm in for the night, you know. The

312
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:34.960
tarp's over me said, I'm in there, and I'm all excited.

313
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:36.960
And there was a lot of internet you could there's

314
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:39.320
nothing there, like there's no Wi Fi you can get signals.

315
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:42.480
So it was just I used to download, you know, podcasts.

316
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:44.480
To listen to. So I'm just listening to that to

317
00:14:44.639 --> 00:14:45.279
drift off.

318
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:50.559
So anyway, I'm just about you know, I'm super relaxed,

319
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:51.960
and I hear.

320
00:14:53.679 --> 00:14:57.840
Like the like the heaviest running you've ever heard, like

321
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.879
a really long stride, Like I mean this persons there

322
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:03.559
are hauling it, but like they are running.

323
00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:05.879
I start get really nervous because I'm like, maybe it's TC.

324
00:15:06.039 --> 00:15:07.919
But then I'm thinking, wait a minute, TC uses the

325
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:10.720
kne he definitely ain't running. Man, I've seen the man walk.

326
00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:14.080
He barely could do that. He's definitely not running. But

327
00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:17.240
I'm thinking maybe it is. So I remember, like I

328
00:15:17.279 --> 00:15:19.759
hear it coming from you know, I don't know how

329
00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:22.600
far the distance was, but you know, you start to

330
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:24.720
hear it coming. It's coming towards me, It's coming closer,

331
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:26.440
it's coming closer. Now it's in the fricking yard and

332
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:28.840
it's basically right in front of me. So I sat

333
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:31.879
up still, I'm not being seen in mind you this

334
00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:34.759
turp is over me and I'm in the hemick, so

335
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:35.559
you can't see me.

336
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:39.480
I'm inside this like you know, silver capsulated tarp.

337
00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:42.399
And I sat up and I yelled his name. I'm

338
00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:45.240
like TC like are you you know, kind of like

339
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:46.000
an are you okay?

340
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:48.879
What's wrong? Like why are you running up here? And

341
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:51.960
it just dead stops, silent, quiet done.

342
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:57.360
Just whoever it is is now standing within and you

343
00:15:57.399 --> 00:15:59.879
can feel it as far as like you know, human

344
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:01.720
you know, you can feel when someone's been in your

345
00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:03.639
room or you know, close by, you know, when someone's

346
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:04.000
near you.

347
00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:06.639
So I feel that they are they are here high.

348
00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:10.519
So I go kind of quiet and I don't say anything,

349
00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:12.399
and I kind of slink a little bit back down

350
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:13.399
into my hammock, like.

351
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.120
Oh, okay, well maybe this is a bear, you know.

352
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:21.039
I'm like, okay, now, now now what do I do? Okay, Well,

353
00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:22.600
I'm just going to sit here and just be quiet

354
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:23.159
for a second.

355
00:16:24.039 --> 00:16:27.080
So I hear this thing now, and it must have been,

356
00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:29.879
you know, from the moment that I called out saying,

357
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.519
you know, hey, t see to the next moment.

358
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:35.399
I hear it walk. It was maybe like five seconds,

359
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:35.759
you know, it.

360
00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:38.000
Wasn't It felt like an eternity, but it was probably

361
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:41.039
shorter than probably five seconds. But AnyWho, I hear it

362
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:44.720
walk to the end now of my hammock and around

363
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.399
the tree now where this raak I speak about, that

364
00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:52.519
was my booby trap. The tongs are down on the ground,

365
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:55.399
so the handles leaning against the tree, the tongs are

366
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:56.159
on the ground.

367
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:01.000
So I hear, Oh my god, I hear this rake

368
00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:07.680
in each of the fingers of this rake goes tink

369
00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:09.960
tink tink.

370
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:11.839
Now, the human.

371
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:14.640
Brain will do a survival mechanism on you where it's

372
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:17.039
gonna be like, this is an innocent thing. This is

373
00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:19.119
just a very cute, little fuzzy fox, and know it's

374
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:21.839
how to play the guitar. That's where my brain went

375
00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:24.160
for like a half second, because I'm like, oh, and

376
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:28.200
I remember giggling. I remember giggling out loud, like that's cute.

377
00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:30.920
And then reality floods in.

378
00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:34.839
There's no animal in the planet that's gonna go and.

379
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:36.599
Like take a stick down, you know, a fence and

380
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:39.960
like thing think for you, like this just doesn't happen.

381
00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:43.720
So now I'm getting nervous. Now I'm getting really nervous.

382
00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:46.359
Now I'm thinking, well, geez, is this like a neighbor

383
00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:47.440
person messling with me?

384
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:50.039
Like is this a human interaction like messing with me?

385
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:54.720
So I just the whole you know.

386
00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:56.880
I've heard so many people say that, you know, the

387
00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:59.000
hair on the back of your neck sticking up, and

388
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:02.319
I never experienced until that day. And it was just

389
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:07.640
that absolute primal fear of like ancestors, just like this

390
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:10.720
is the dangerous situation and you're in trouble. So I

391
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:13.400
just laid there, you know, and I'm just like, well,

392
00:18:13.920 --> 00:18:16.400
and I did have a switch play like you know,

393
00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:18.559
switch knife kind of thing that I had, So I

394
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:20.200
had that in my hand, and I'm like and I

395
00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:22.279
opened it up just in case, Like, well, I'm not

396
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:24.599
going to go down, you know, not fighting. You know,

397
00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:27.839
I'm inside basically to go back right now, you know

398
00:18:27.880 --> 00:18:30.279
what I mean, Like I don't really have much of

399
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:33.559
a chance, but at least I could try, and so

400
00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:36.759
at this point it's it's going out, it's making a

401
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:40.599
full circle, like this completely came around me, and it's

402
00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:42.960
now getting towards the end of my feet, and I

403
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:44.880
at this point, I'm mad now.

404
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:46.480
And now all of a sudden, I go into kissed

405
00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:48.839
because I'm like, who is this and what is this?

406
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:50.400
And if this is any I'm not mad now. So

407
00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:53.160
I get I sat straight up and I hissed. I

408
00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:57.640
hissed at this thing like a cat, like I did

409
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:02.920
not expect this response. So there iss I got was this.

410
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:09.799
Deep, internal, weird growl that like I've heard stuff growl.

411
00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:12.839
I've heard brown bear growl. I know what those sound like.

412
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:14.880
I know what black bears sound like. I know what

413
00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:17.480
dogs sound like. I know what cats sound like. I

414
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:19.519
know them, you know, I know, I know what the

415
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:22.240
normal nature animal sounds are.

416
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:25.359
This was so not normal and it was deep and

417
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:26.880
it was basy and it was.

418
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:29.599
Big, and I was just like it was kind of

419
00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:31.559
like one of those growls back like oh little girl,

420
00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:32.240
you're so cute.

421
00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:33.599
You have no idea what I am.

422
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:36.279
Kind of thing now, the weirder part was like, okay,

423
00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:39.559
now that happens, and I'm just like, Dirk, you got it, sir,

424
00:19:39.799 --> 00:19:42.240
have a good night. And that's like basically what I

425
00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:44.599
was thinking in my mind. And then the weirder part

426
00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:48.240
for me also was that now where this situation is,

427
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:51.480
where the game trail is, and my setup after this

428
00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:53.440
game trail. I mean, I'm not kidding, it's got to

429
00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:55.920
be less than a foot wide. From that foot wide,

430
00:19:56.039 --> 00:20:00.640
it is a straight like gully and it's I'm both sides.

431
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:02.000
So it's this very deep.

432
00:20:01.839 --> 00:20:04.759
Gully to meet like a little stream that goes, you know,

433
00:20:04.799 --> 00:20:05.200
to the back.

434
00:20:05.359 --> 00:20:08.119
It's called the Back Creek.

435
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:10.960
It's called Back Creek, and Back Creek runs like seventy

436
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:14.039
something miles like up to Frederick, Maryland or something.

437
00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:14.319
Crazy like that.

438
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:18.160
So anyhow, it's all bush, it's all bramble, it's all noise.

439
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:20.200
I heard the deer, you know, I've heard I've heard

440
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:21.240
the critters walking.

441
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:25.000
And make sound. There wasn't a sound after that, like

442
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:28.440
the thing just like levitated or swung from branches, I

443
00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:31.720
don't know, but there was a sound afterwards. And so

444
00:20:31.960 --> 00:20:35.359
that at that point, I'm like, well, I'm not getting

445
00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:38.039
up because my all, my whole body was like just

446
00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:39.400
grab run inside that's all.

447
00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:41.640
Just go inside, you know what I mean, Just go inside.

448
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:43.160
But then I'm like, well, what if it's sitting out

449
00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:45.039
here waiting for me to go do that? Like so

450
00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:48.039
there was a real internal battle going on. And I

451
00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:49.920
don't know, by the grace of God or with guardian

452
00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:52.160
angels or whatever, they just like, put my butt to sleep,

453
00:20:52.160 --> 00:20:54.880
and they're just like, sleep child, and said I did.

454
00:20:54.880 --> 00:20:56.839
I fell right to sleep, but had no problems for

455
00:20:56.839 --> 00:20:58.960
the rest of the night. On the next morning, I

456
00:20:58.960 --> 00:21:00.319
got up and I went in and I you know,

457
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:02.920
I talked to TC and I was like, hey, I

458
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:03.480
was like, did.

459
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:04.799
You come running down last night? I mess with me?

460
00:21:05.079 --> 00:21:06.559
He just kind of laughed and we looked in this

461
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:08.799
Katie's like huh. I was like, yeah, I didn't think so.

462
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:10.559
And I was like, you know, do you think anybody

463
00:21:10.640 --> 00:21:12.599
in your neighborhood, you know, knowing I'm here, would mess

464
00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:14.480
with me like that. He's like, we don't do that

465
00:21:14.519 --> 00:21:16.279
to people around here, because that's one way to get

466
00:21:16.279 --> 00:21:16.799
yourself shut.

467
00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:18.039
And it's just true, you know what I mean, Like,

468
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:20.720
you don't go mess around, not not in this neck

469
00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:22.079
of the woods. I was in, not with these kind

470
00:21:22.079 --> 00:21:22.440
of people.

471
00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:29.759
So Okay, So anyways that that happened, and then I decided, well,

472
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:31.480
let's stop being a tough girl.

473
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:35.640
Let's try and spend a night inside with no drama. Well,

474
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:37.680
color me funny.

475
00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:41.440
That didn't happen because the night I go the next night,

476
00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:44.119
so I had that runner.

477
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:46.279
I call it the runner, the runner and incident.

478
00:21:46.920 --> 00:21:48.720
Now I move into the house the next night, you know,

479
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:51.359
to sleep inside, get into my bedroom.

480
00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:52.440
It's you know, same kind.

481
00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:54.640
Of time a night whatever, like eight o'clock, and I

482
00:21:54.640 --> 00:21:57.200
got my door shut. It's very very very dark.

483
00:21:57.000 --> 00:21:57.519
In my room.

484
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:00.720
But the light in the hull, the night light in

485
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:02.480
the hallway to see, you know, to walk around at

486
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:06.319
night if you want to cast enough light under the

487
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:09.799
door jam that you could see you know, a good

488
00:22:10.079 --> 00:22:11.799
you know, couple of feet in you know, you could

489
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:13.839
kind of get the shadows of the dresser, do you

490
00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:16.319
know what I mean? Like dark, but you've got one

491
00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:20.440
spot that's got some you know, significant ambient light. So

492
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:22.920
I kind of like look over and I'm just you know,

493
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:25.799
just kind of staring at the light and look at

494
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:32.039
all of a sudden, this incredibly black, very very black

495
00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:36.319
mist just comes up from that like the not it

496
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:38.119
didn't seem like it was coming from under the door,

497
00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:40.359
but it was like inside the door already.

498
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:42.200
In that corner, like when the door can just meet

499
00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:44.079
like in that corner and just kind of raised up.

500
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:45.960
And I'm looking at this thing and I'm like.

501
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:49.319
Okay, and it starts to kind of like do this

502
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:53.160
weird kind of like like a snake motion of just

503
00:22:53.279 --> 00:22:55.039
kind of coming at me. It's and it's you know,

504
00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:58.119
it's getting longer and it's getting darker, and it's just

505
00:22:58.200 --> 00:22:58.960
coming right for.

506
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:03.119
Me, not literally frozen in time. I'm just like, okay,

507
00:23:03.160 --> 00:23:07.000
act whatever this challenge is. And I'm not even kidding

508
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:10.039
this is a sound, not even of this, but it.

509
00:23:09.880 --> 00:23:12.160
Comes in and it's like right to my eye and

510
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:14.839
it just goes right and I just am like accepting this.

511
00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:17.759
I'm like, bare fosh, my fate. It goes right into

512
00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:18.839
my eye and I'm.

513
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:22.799
Like okay, cool. And there was no la like any

514
00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:24.799
kind of like mind thing going on. There was no

515
00:23:24.920 --> 00:23:28.920
like communication. It was just like Okay, this is happening,

516
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:31.960
and I'm like is this happening? So now I'm my

517
00:23:32.039 --> 00:23:33.960
gaslight in myself, like what is going on? Like I

518
00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:35.960
don't do drugs. I wasn't high, I wasn't drink, and

519
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:38.359
I wasn't doing anything weird. So I'm like, I'm looking

520
00:23:38.400 --> 00:23:40.319
at the late at the bottom of the door, and

521
00:23:40.359 --> 00:23:42.119
I can only see out of my right eye.

522
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:43.079
I cover my left eye.

523
00:23:43.079 --> 00:23:44.559
I'm like, yep, I can definitely see with my right

524
00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:47.000
I okay, cool, I cover my right I can't see.

525
00:23:47.039 --> 00:23:49.319
I think I cover it again. I'm doing this for

526
00:23:49.359 --> 00:23:53.559
like minutes on end, and now I'm like, what do

527
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:53.960
I do?

528
00:23:54.920 --> 00:23:55.480
What do I do?

529
00:23:55.519 --> 00:23:57.480
I wake this guy that you know, I'm renting from

530
00:23:57.559 --> 00:23:59.759
and be like, yeah, bro, I think it ghosts in

531
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:01.799
my I, you know, take me to the er.

532
00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:03.640
Like how do you even play that one out? I'd

533
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:04.400
be in a looney bed.

534
00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:08.039
So I just, once again, you know, just this calming

535
00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:11.920
kind of like thought process washed over me, Like, well,

536
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:13.920
if it's like this tomorrow, I guess you're going to

537
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:16.720
have to figure out some excuses why you're blind and

538
00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:18.519
your left eye.

539
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:24.960
So, anyway that happened, and I had actually asked TC,

540
00:24:25.240 --> 00:24:27.799
you know, I told him everything that happened, and you know,

541
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:31.440
he was, you know, definitely not disbelieving me about the

542
00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:34.599
runner incident and definitely.

543
00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:37.759
Support Well, I don't even know if that's the word

544
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:38.319
I want to look for.

545
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:42.559
But he definitely validated what had happened to me, because

546
00:24:42.599 --> 00:24:44.839
I didn't expect this response. After I spoke to him

547
00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:47.359
about the detail of what happened, and he's like, oh,

548
00:24:47.519 --> 00:24:49.640
you met I think he called him Harry or Henry

549
00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:51.599
or something. It was with an age. He's like, oh,

550
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:55.279
you met so and so, And I'm like there, I guess,

551
00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:56.559
so what.

552
00:24:56.480 --> 00:24:59.759
Does that even mean? And there was like no real conversation.

553
00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:02.680
Wh I don't know why I didn't try and like,

554
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:05.240
you know, find out and we're backstory on why I

555
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:08.640
would have a black apparition enter me my left eyeball

556
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:10.400
and then just leave me alone, because the next day,

557
00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:12.359
I mean it was fine, I could see and all

558
00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:15.799
that stuff. So but yeah, those are the two major

559
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:19.240
ones that had happened. And that was in you know,

560
00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:22.759
the span from May of twenty twenty one to June

561
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:24.440
or twenty twenty one, and then.

562
00:25:24.359 --> 00:25:26.160
I moved here to Alaska.

563
00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:29.759
In December of twenty twenty one, so all of this

564
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:31.000
is like in a short span.

565
00:25:31.960 --> 00:25:33.839
So I got to Alaska.

566
00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:36.759
And I was here for the winter when I moved,

567
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:40.039
so spring summer, I was doing vending over in clam

568
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:44.039
Gulch and this local farmer guy and I would chat

569
00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:45.799
in and he was like, oh you camp.

570
00:25:46.119 --> 00:25:47.359
I was like yeah, to tell him all the places

571
00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:48.319
I had already been.

572
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:51.920
Here in Alaska, like starskis Ski Ski, like Lake YadA YadA,

573
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:52.640
And he's like.

574
00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:55.319
Oh, there's this really great place, beautiful views, blah blah

575
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:57.680
blah blah blah. I was like, I'm totally down.

576
00:25:58.000 --> 00:26:01.200
And it's off this road call why is Owl And

577
00:26:01.319 --> 00:26:04.079
it goes out into like lots and lots and lots

578
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:08.039
of territory out back, like if you keep going, you'll

579
00:26:08.119 --> 00:26:10.559
end up in like Caribou Hills area and all this stuff.

580
00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:11.640
So anyway, I have a.

581
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:15.839
Golden rule of anywhere I go camping off grid or whatever.

582
00:26:16.480 --> 00:26:16.640
You know.

583
00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:20.559
Camped in Piscoff Forest before North Carolina, and my limit

584
00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:21.440
is ten miles.

585
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:24.720
I figure I could walk ten miles to get out

586
00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:26.119
if anything weird goes down.

587
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:28.440
So you know, I always kind of give myself that rule.

588
00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:30.759
So I drive about ten miles.

589
00:26:30.240 --> 00:26:35.119
In to this like crazy Catacombi trail, you know place

590
00:26:35.599 --> 00:26:37.880
that you know, I just kept sticking on one main

591
00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:39.920
road because there was so catacomby that I'm like, I

592
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:41.160
will get lost in here.

593
00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:43.559
So I get in. I look at my O Dominus.

594
00:26:43.599 --> 00:26:45.279
It's nine point eight and I'm like, all right, this

595
00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:47.359
seems very fun, a cool spot. I'm like, all right,

596
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:49.359
this looks fair. I'll you know, camp here. It was

597
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:51.759
just me and my dog and so I'm on the

598
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:54.000
loaded my truck. I have a camper truck I converted

599
00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:56.160
used to be like an old utility truck, like an

600
00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:58.640
ey Ps truck, but I converted into a full blown

601
00:26:58.640 --> 00:27:00.240
camper and.

602
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:01.920
Some of my stuff out and I'm like, god, it's

603
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:04.599
a great full of fire. You know, read a book

604
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:06.279
is It's going to be awesome, so relaxing.

605
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:08.920
So I'm getting everything out and I'm just like I

606
00:27:09.039 --> 00:27:10.799
just get this really hinky.

607
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:14.039
Being watched feeling, and like, yeah, I'm in the woods.

608
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:15.720
There's animals. They are going to be watched, and so

609
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:16.920
I kind of like brush off.

610
00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:20.279
I'm like whatever. And so I get everything kind of set.

611
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:23.000
Up and I sit down and I'm like, I don't

612
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:25.680
know why I feel so exposed. So I kind of

613
00:27:25.680 --> 00:27:28.079
move everything back over to where my truck is so

614
00:27:28.119 --> 00:27:30.240
I have more of a quick get into my truck

615
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:31.359
and shut the door in.

616
00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:34.359
The back and so.

617
00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:37.640
I'm inside my truck at that point, I'm getting stuff

618
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:41.799
ready to you know, cook, and I hear whistling like

619
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.119
a person whistle, not like a bird whistle. Again, you know,

620
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:47.200
I know the bird sounds. I try to burse myself

621
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:49.039
in any area and I've been to and I've been

622
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:51.160
to a lot of them because I love wildlife and

623
00:27:51.160 --> 00:27:53.759
I love animals, and I do wildlife photography, so it

624
00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:56.000
is my point of interest to learn them to be

625
00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:00.960
able to label them. So anyway, this this whistling is

626
00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:04.960
is just carrying on and it's constant, and it's constant,

627
00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:07.039
and it's constant. So I call one of my friends

628
00:28:07.079 --> 00:28:09.680
to be like, yeah, do you guys sound like tree frogs?

629
00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:11.799
Because maybe that's what it is, because that's.

630
00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:13.400
What my mind is like, it's got to be, you know,

631
00:28:13.480 --> 00:28:16.799
let's let's let's knock off the list of what it

632
00:28:16.839 --> 00:28:19.279
is or isn't, and let's go with what it could be.

633
00:28:19.799 --> 00:28:22.680
So start with no, definitely not a tree frog. And

634
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:25.559
I'm like, you know what other animal knows how to whistle?

635
00:28:25.559 --> 00:28:27.839
And someone's like, oh, a lynx can whistle, And I'm

636
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:30.960
like they're okay, Well, this is the very different kind

637
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:33.359
of whistle man, Like this is one that you and

638
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:35.400
I can do that you would have to be able

639
00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:40.400
to do with like intention and purpose, with lips and movement,

640
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:42.319
do you know what I mean? Like it's just a

641
00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:46.240
whistle you can't imitate in nature. It's somebody or something has.

642
00:28:46.119 --> 00:28:48.920
To do it. So my mind goes, oh, crap, this

643
00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:50.359
is probably a freaking human then.

644
00:28:50.400 --> 00:28:52.799
And you know they're falling and they can't get up

645
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:54.240
and they're hurt, and the soul they got.

646
00:28:54.119 --> 00:28:57.799
Left to do is whistle. So I'm like, oh, come on, dog,

647
00:28:57.960 --> 00:28:59.720
you know, like, screw.

648
00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:01.519
My scary feelings I had ten seconds ago. Let's go

649
00:29:01.519 --> 00:29:04.039
into a rescue mission for whoever's down in the woods.

650
00:29:04.400 --> 00:29:08.119
So her and I walk and it's probably I don't know,

651
00:29:08.240 --> 00:29:11.480
six sixty seventy yards down, and then there's a left

652
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:14.920
hand turn for another like trail road and it's up

653
00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:16.799
and it's definitely up in this area. I'm like, I'm

654
00:29:16.799 --> 00:29:18.839
getting closer to the sound. It's getting more and more

655
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:20.880
and more, and I'm like, okay, okay, I'm getting closer.

656
00:29:20.960 --> 00:29:23.440
And now the closer I'm getting, the less it's becoming.

657
00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:27.359
I'm like okay, And so I am looking I'm scanning

658
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:30.119
inside those wods, and I'm just looking for any slight movement.

659
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:32.119
I'm looking for just anything, you know, to.

660
00:29:32.160 --> 00:29:34.680
A bird looking up, just any anything like by now,

661
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:38.400
whatever's whistling, that's an animal that is afraid of humans,

662
00:29:38.400 --> 00:29:41.200
as they're conditioned to being in their own nature in

663
00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:43.799
DNA would have left, you know, they would have scurried off,

664
00:29:43.799 --> 00:29:47.640
and you know, the ladies here gotta go. None of

665
00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:50.799
that happened and just went dead dead, silent, And I

666
00:29:50.960 --> 00:29:55.079
got that whole feeling again of like the wash over

667
00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:57.599
your body, like this is none of your business.

668
00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:00.920
I want you go back to your truck. I did

669
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:01.599
it about face.

670
00:30:01.640 --> 00:30:03.559
I went right back to my truck and I locked

671
00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:06.640
it down, and again, you know, I stuck it out.

672
00:30:06.680 --> 00:30:07.799
I stayed all night long.

673
00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:12.400
I don't recall any kind of strange incidences that happened

674
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:15.839
or any noises throughout the night. But the next morning

675
00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:17.839
I did hustle out of there. When I got out

676
00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:21.400
and started packing my stuff up to the right of

677
00:30:21.680 --> 00:30:26.440
me and into the woodline, I noticed there was this thirty.

678
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:28.799
Foot tall I don't know the technical.

679
00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:30.200
Name, but the thing that you would you would hang

680
00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:32.839
like your moose or your bear, you know, to dress

681
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:35.400
them out, you know what I mean, like those things

682
00:30:35.400 --> 00:30:36.559
that it was thirty foot tall.

683
00:30:36.559 --> 00:30:37.880
I kid you, not huge.

684
00:30:38.319 --> 00:30:39.799
So this thing is there and I'm like, oh, so

685
00:30:39.839 --> 00:30:43.119
I basically camped under like the kill station all night long,

686
00:30:43.240 --> 00:30:46.519
like no wonder why, I feel like watched, you know

687
00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:48.480
what I mean. So anyway, there was that one. And

688
00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:50.960
then on my very very last it was very recent.

689
00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:54.519
It was in October. We had a super mild summer here.

690
00:30:54.559 --> 00:30:57.119
It was probably the most bang or summer a lot

691
00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:59.359
of us have seen, especially if you lived here longer

692
00:30:59.400 --> 00:31:01.640
than me. I've only been here four years, but it

693
00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:03.599
was amazing and it went all the.

694
00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:06.440
Way out until October the warmth.

695
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:09.519
So I decided to do one last camping trip with

696
00:31:09.559 --> 00:31:11.720
my dog and myself, and I went back to Skilac.

697
00:31:11.799 --> 00:31:14.920
Now, the Skilac is one of my favorite.

698
00:31:14.920 --> 00:31:19.880
Most peaceful, most calming places I've ever been to in

699
00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:22.079
my life. I love this wise. I can't speak enough

700
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:24.559
of it. I always go to Upper Skillac Campground.

701
00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:26.400
So I go there in October.

702
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:29.359
It's like, you know, near end of October and there's

703
00:31:29.400 --> 00:31:31.640
nobody there, just day trippers, you know, in and out,

704
00:31:31.680 --> 00:31:33.759
in and out whatever I'm paddle born.

705
00:31:33.599 --> 00:31:35.160
And I'm doing stuff out in the lake because it

706
00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:36.519
was that nice in that warmth.

707
00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:41.759
Well, it wasn't more of anything that just physically truly happened,

708
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:46.599
but it was an overall super uncomfortable feeling that I

709
00:31:46.640 --> 00:31:49.920
had that I've never experienced there before, Like just something

710
00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:52.079
that was like why do you got to be here too?

711
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:54.319
Like we need this space right now? Can you just go?

712
00:31:54.400 --> 00:31:54.920
Do you know what I mean?

713
00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:58.799
Like that kind of like like a frustration feeling, a

714
00:31:58.920 --> 00:32:02.079
kind of like it's time for you guys to go now,

715
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:03.680
like this is you know, this is a habit we

716
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:04.400
have or whatever.

717
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:07.920
And I just always felt like watch like I'd be outside,

718
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:10.240
you know, the dog, you know, trying to enjoy myself.

719
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:14.079
But it was just I kept being like I was

720
00:32:14.160 --> 00:32:15.440
just driven inside more.

721
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:18.680
I stayed inside my truck more than I normally would have.

722
00:32:19.240 --> 00:32:21.039
So that was like that was my only weird thing.

723
00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:22.680
And I know when I looked.

724
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:27.240
On the BRFO of the Bigfoot research, you know, thing

725
00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:30.480
I noticed, oh I'm sorry, not on that. It was

726
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:33.799
on you know, I'm sure Fred. I think it's grol

727
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:35.880
the Subarctic sasquatch.

728
00:32:36.559 --> 00:32:39.839
Yeah, yeah, yep, roll yeah, so.

729
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:42.920
I checked out his site and yes, there has been sightings.

730
00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:46.279
There's a sighting and SKILEC and it is at upper SKILEX.

731
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:48.680
So that kind of confirmed that. Yes.

732
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:52.160
And then on the BRFO one, if you look in

733
00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:54.519
the jared'stown where I was Tony that I was at,

734
00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:59.759
on the exact location, they actually have a reporting. There

735
00:32:59.799 --> 00:33:04.440
was a couple and it was called on Swinging Bridge Road.

736
00:33:04.920 --> 00:33:09.000
Now I was on Hemlock Lane and now Hemlock lay

737
00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:12.359
into this road I speak of is a half an

738
00:33:12.359 --> 00:33:13.759
hour drive, but you would have to go down the

739
00:33:13.799 --> 00:33:17.000
mountain back up and around. But as the crow flies

740
00:33:17.119 --> 00:33:19.440
from exactly where it was, it's a straight line north

741
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:22.279
on this ridge line to where this sighting was. So

742
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:24.359
that kind of gave me a little like a little

743
00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:27.119
validity on that where it was like no flipping way

744
00:33:27.359 --> 00:33:29.279
and like as big as they are and they can

745
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:31.640
move the movement that would take them no time. If

746
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:33.359
it's a half an hour drive, that's a ten minute

747
00:33:33.400 --> 00:33:34.839
walk for them. Yeah.

748
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:37.200
I mean, if people haven't been falling along with the

749
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:42.000
map or just any map, I mean, this is you're

750
00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:45.720
talking about keen I Peninsula, which some wild wild stuff

751
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:49.799
happens out there, when it comes to p Yeah, my goodness,

752
00:33:49.839 --> 00:33:52.559
I can't believe you're out by yourself like that. That's wild.

753
00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:56.720
Yeah. Yeah, well it's funny because I hear too, Like,

754
00:33:57.000 --> 00:33:59.000
you know, I am in the firm believer.

755
00:33:59.720 --> 00:34:02.440
We're that you know, there's good and bad everything, just

756
00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:03.480
as I believe.

757
00:34:03.480 --> 00:34:07.000
There's a boatload of them that are very very good.

758
00:34:07.200 --> 00:34:09.719
But it seems like the ones in Alaska are just

759
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:14.440
super grumpy. Yeah, especially like the friend's stuff and like

760
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:17.199
his experiences, Like I don't think he likes somebody'll hold

761
00:34:17.199 --> 00:34:18.000
no love for them.

762
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:19.639
I'm like, I do I care.

763
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:23.079
I think they're pretty cool, like I never like in

764
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:25.440
my life, Like I remember being a small kid and

765
00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:28.119
you know, hearing you know, the Patterson Gimble film come out,

766
00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:29.360
and it was like on the news and stuff.

767
00:34:29.360 --> 00:34:31.199
So to me and my little brain, it was like,

768
00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:32.039
oh cool, that's a.

769
00:34:32.159 --> 00:34:35.519
Washington problem, the East coast off, you know, and you're

770
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:38.679
taught as a little kid like the darker than scary,

771
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.199
there's no monsters, will low and freaking behold, apparently there's

772
00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:45.440
a whole bunch of them.

773
00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:48.599
That man, you have really lived through a lot of

774
00:34:49.639 --> 00:34:54.519
wild stuff already. Andrea, my goodness, that's just a few years.

775
00:34:55.039 --> 00:34:55.400
Wow.

776
00:34:57.880 --> 00:35:00.320
Can you not to put you on the spot, but

777
00:35:01.679 --> 00:35:05.199
the whistle that you heard, are you able to imitate

778
00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:07.559
that at all?

779
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:11.480
I mean yeah, I mean I could give it a try.

780
00:35:11.519 --> 00:35:16.000
It was more like a okay, do you know what

781
00:35:16.039 --> 00:35:18.800
I mean? Like that, It wasn't like a birdie call.

782
00:35:18.840 --> 00:35:19.400
It was like a.

783
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:24.440
It was literally like a come hither call, Come here,

784
00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:25.480
you were calling your dog?

785
00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:30.000
Okay, gotcha. I was just curious because I'm always when

786
00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:32.360
anyone brings that up, I'm always like, man, I wonder,

787
00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:34.800
what if it sounds like what I heard in Oregons

788
00:35:34.920 --> 00:35:37.280
And it almost sounds like what you heard kind of

789
00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:39.199
went up and pitch at the end.

790
00:35:39.719 --> 00:35:45.920
Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah.

791
00:35:43.960 --> 00:35:46.440
Yeah definitely. And I know too, like I feel like.

792
00:35:46.559 --> 00:35:51.119
Obviously if you are a you know, they don't have

793
00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:54.360
the pollution like weeds. They're super more in tune to things,

794
00:35:54.360 --> 00:35:56.599
and I think that they can limit much of the

795
00:35:56.639 --> 00:35:59.119
wildlife around them to communicate with each other.

796
00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:01.119
That's only that they would not, you know, to distinguish.

797
00:36:01.559 --> 00:36:03.760
So sometimes I even wonder, like half the stuff I've

798
00:36:03.800 --> 00:36:05.639
heard in my past, you know what I mean, Like

799
00:36:06.760 --> 00:36:08.480
maybe that knock wasn't a wood packer, you know what

800
00:36:08.639 --> 00:36:10.400
I mean, like or you know maybe that you know

801
00:36:10.559 --> 00:36:12.119
dog Birk wasn't a dog.

802
00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:14.119
Marks, you know what I mean. It's just it's very.

803
00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:18.400
Wild, absolutely. I mean, mimicry is such an interesting thing.

804
00:36:18.400 --> 00:36:21.199
I mean, even in some humans, the mimicry that can

805
00:36:21.239 --> 00:36:25.400
happen is incredible. I think I remember seeing a news

806
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:28.840
report about a young boy with autism that could mimic

807
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:33.039
something like thirty or thirty or fifty different birds. So

808
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:40.400
it's just it's incredible, incredible stuff that certain certain individuals

809
00:36:40.840 --> 00:36:44.599
or you know, types of beings can do. Man, that

810
00:36:45.239 --> 00:36:47.800
your story in West Virginia, I mean, that's gonna bug

811
00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:52.159
me because I want to know more from what TC knew.

812
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:53.480
I mean he knew.

813
00:36:53.320 --> 00:36:58.159
Something, Yeah, yeah he did, and I wanted to like

814
00:36:58.559 --> 00:37:00.920
reach out and talk to him again about it, but

815
00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:02.679
I just I just haven't because.

816
00:37:02.599 --> 00:37:03.039
I don't know.

817
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:07.000
I just I just haven't, probably because he's only has

818
00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:09.320
a cell phone and the recession there is bad. I remember,

819
00:37:09.360 --> 00:37:11.239
you would have to go outside to a certain part

820
00:37:11.239 --> 00:37:13.400
of the yard to be able to get phone calls,

821
00:37:13.559 --> 00:37:15.239
so you know, one of those things like I would

822
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:16.880
have to make the poor old guy walk outside and

823
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:19.039
I talked to me for half and hour. Some people,

824
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:20.559
I'll just write him a letter and see what they'll

825
00:37:20.559 --> 00:37:21.199
write me back.

826
00:37:21.960 --> 00:37:29.639
Absolutely, it's just weird. After you had the black mist

827
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:37.960
uh enter your eye, did you after that point any

828
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:40.480
weird health issues come up or did you have any

829
00:37:40.519 --> 00:37:43.639
eye appointments where they noticed anything.

830
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:49.199
Or no, No, I nothing, nothing of like I'll you know,

831
00:37:49.320 --> 00:37:50.039
a fete kind of thing.

832
00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:52.840
The next day, I felt fine, I could see fine.

833
00:37:52.920 --> 00:37:55.360
I was just more of like, what in the actual

834
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:58.119
heck just happened to me? Like what did? What did

835
00:37:58.159 --> 00:37:59.360
I just go through?

836
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:02.840
And it was so mind vending that you know, that's

837
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:07.320
what really put their trajectory for me on the ever ending.

838
00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:11.320
Knowledge and thirst off for anything doing with the forest.

839
00:38:11.320 --> 00:38:14.679
People like I listened to you guys religiously.

840
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:16.679
You there's a few of you guys only that I.

841
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:18.199
Listened to because I feel like some others are just

842
00:38:18.199 --> 00:38:20.440
a little bit and not everybody and that's just kind

843
00:38:20.440 --> 00:38:22.679
of want make money out or whatever. But I care

844
00:38:23.079 --> 00:38:25.280
because you guys care about what we've gone through and

845
00:38:25.320 --> 00:38:26.119
really loved.

846
00:38:26.280 --> 00:38:27.920
I just love how you interview style.

847
00:38:28.039 --> 00:38:30.159
Thank you, and I love hearing the people that call

848
00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:33.239
in and talk and they've helped me through that. And again,

849
00:38:33.280 --> 00:38:35.039
like I say, I thank all of them that have

850
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:38.320
shared their experiences because it helped me to understand that

851
00:38:38.360 --> 00:38:42.199
AA wasn't crazy. Because you gaslight yourself so bad for

852
00:38:42.440 --> 00:38:45.559
days and weeks and months, and you don't want to

853
00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:48.920
tell anybody because of the fear of just like you first,

854
00:38:48.960 --> 00:38:50.039
you don't want that reaction.

855
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:51.519
That's the last thing you want somebody to do, is

856
00:38:51.559 --> 00:38:54.639
like laughing at you or telling you what you didn't see.

857
00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:56.800
You know, it's like, no, man, I was there and

858
00:38:56.840 --> 00:38:59.400
I know what experienced please, So.

859
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:02.719
Yeah, I mean, I've you know, I have talked to Miguel.

860
00:39:02.800 --> 00:39:05.400
I did do his podcast not too long ago, but

861
00:39:06.119 --> 00:39:07.440
I don't know if it was a good enough.

862
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:08.199
Story for him or not.

863
00:39:08.239 --> 00:39:09.639
But I haven't heard it, but I'm sure he's got

864
00:39:09.639 --> 00:39:11.239
tons and we'll probably come out next year and that's

865
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:13.280
really cool. But he is the only other one and

866
00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:15.719
like two of my friends that I've told. So it's

867
00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:18.920
a very small circle of people and now will be

868
00:39:18.960 --> 00:39:23.719
bigger and maybe some people in West Virginia. I was hoping, like, hey,

869
00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:26.760
West Virginia folk, you know, if you guys have ever

870
00:39:26.840 --> 00:39:30.719
experienced anything like that, as well, I would just like

871
00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:34.360
to have the you know, the ballad.

872
00:39:36.400 --> 00:39:39.320
It's it's such an important thing. I mean, I'm right

873
00:39:39.320 --> 00:39:42.920
there with you when you can get that just hearing

874
00:39:43.039 --> 00:39:46.400
about someone who's experienced something like you have. And you know,

875
00:39:46.599 --> 00:39:48.840
if listeners don't know who Miguel is, he's a great guy.

876
00:39:48.920 --> 00:39:50.039
You can check him out his show.

877
00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:52.440
Yeah, yeah, so good.

878
00:39:54.280 --> 00:39:57.039
We talk every once in a while. But the black

879
00:39:57.159 --> 00:40:00.639
Missed thing, the missing in general is a wee thing,

880
00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:03.320
and I really hope it doesn't become a pattern, but

881
00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:08.000
it might, so the one that's out on the show,

882
00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:10.280
and I was literally just talking about this with the

883
00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:15.519
person I talked to before you. But there's the episode

884
00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:19.280
where I talked to the individual out by Mount Hood

885
00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:23.760
in zig Zag, Oregon and where they pretty much saw

886
00:40:23.880 --> 00:40:27.760
a cougar panther type creature turn into black mist and

887
00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:32.599
then go around a go over the creek, which is wild.

888
00:40:32.760 --> 00:40:37.480
And then I brought that up earlier today because there

889
00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:41.440
was another individual I talked to from Virginia and she

890
00:40:41.559 --> 00:40:46.119
was having all sorts of really interesting, just weird things

891
00:40:46.119 --> 00:40:49.360
happen on her property that are Bigfoot related but also

892
00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:55.719
perhaps paranormal, and what she described is seeing something very

893
00:40:55.760 --> 00:41:00.079
similar on her porch, and that's the one time that

894
00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:03.440
she's seen a physical manifestation of whatever is going on

895
00:41:03.440 --> 00:41:06.199
on her properties. So I don't know if this is

896
00:41:06.239 --> 00:41:09.920
a thing where it's it's something else or it's something

897
00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:12.119
related to Bigfoot. Who knows. I mean, that's kind of

898
00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:15.480
part of trying to figure this out, right. It's just

899
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:18.000
it's such a weird, weird thing. And the other thing

900
00:41:18.039 --> 00:41:20.559
I wanted to point out to you is you said

901
00:41:20.559 --> 00:41:23.639
that you immediately fell to sleep after you had been

902
00:41:23.719 --> 00:41:27.039
growled back at, after you kind of hissed at it.

903
00:41:27.639 --> 00:41:30.599
And it's just it's very interesting when you have these

904
00:41:30.599 --> 00:41:34.880
individuals that have something happen to them in a similar situation.

905
00:41:35.519 --> 00:41:39.559
Almost all of them always say I immediately fell asleep.

906
00:41:39.679 --> 00:41:42.320
I went right into a deep sleep. And it's like you,

907
00:41:42.480 --> 00:41:45.320
I can just like check it off on I can

908
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:47.000
make a list and check it off like Okay, they're

909
00:41:47.039 --> 00:41:50.320
going to say they fell to sleep quickly next, and

910
00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:52.960
they always do. It's just it's the weirdest way.

911
00:41:54.000 --> 00:41:55.320
Oh yeah, that's wild.

912
00:41:55.519 --> 00:41:58.679
I've never heard it out loud spoken before, and that's

913
00:41:58.679 --> 00:42:00.920
why it almost makes one to say that they.

914
00:42:00.800 --> 00:42:02.639
Couldn't believe you because what do you mean you didn't

915
00:42:02.639 --> 00:42:04.119
get up and run into the house? What do you

916
00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:05.039
mean you fell asleep?

917
00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:05.280
Right?

918
00:42:05.719 --> 00:42:07.760
You know what I mean? So you get kind of

919
00:42:07.800 --> 00:42:10.360
like that to gas light youers like what the heck?

920
00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:15.199
Kind of like what wild? That's very wild.

921
00:42:15.239 --> 00:42:16.960
I wonder if it's like, you know, like a weird

922
00:42:17.039 --> 00:42:20.119
infrasound thing that they maybe send out like sleep shy

923
00:42:20.239 --> 00:42:20.920
or you'll fine.

924
00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:24.519
Now, I think it could be that, or perhaps it's

925
00:42:24.559 --> 00:42:27.280
even like it might be some weird type of like

926
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:29.400
adrenaline dump where your body's.

927
00:42:29.079 --> 00:42:32.880
Just yeah, that was actually my first thing, Like your

928
00:42:32.920 --> 00:42:34.519
body was just like just play dead.

929
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:38.519
It's like pert fainting.

930
00:42:38.320 --> 00:42:45.039
Goat right there you go crazy stuff. Would you ever?

931
00:42:46.559 --> 00:42:49.199
Are you the type of person where you would want

932
00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:54.280
to have an actual sighting of a big foot? Are

933
00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:58.280
you okay having these kind of peripheral things happen to

934
00:42:58.400 --> 00:42:59.280
you in this way?

935
00:42:59.880 --> 00:43:02.880
You know, it's such an awesome question because you know,

936
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:05.280
I've heard you ask your guests out before and I

937
00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:10.960
definitely have always been like yes, yes, which totally love

938
00:43:11.039 --> 00:43:15.400
to see you on and just you know, because here's why,

939
00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:17.920
Because I'm a believer, but I'm not a knower. Do

940
00:43:17.960 --> 00:43:20.400
you know what I mean, Yes, in the sense that like, yes,

941
00:43:20.519 --> 00:43:23.159
I totally had these weird experiences.

942
00:43:22.400 --> 00:43:23.719
And it totally I can.

943
00:43:23.559 --> 00:43:26.920
Tell you everything that it wasn't but I can't tell

944
00:43:26.920 --> 00:43:27.960
you exactly what it was.

945
00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:29.519
But if I saw it, I'd be like, oh, yeah, totally,

946
00:43:29.519 --> 00:43:30.239
this is what it was.

947
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:33.199
So for that, yes, but here, no, I don't want

948
00:43:33.239 --> 00:43:37.719
to though me being saying that I this summer for

949
00:43:37.800 --> 00:43:42.280
my birthday, I'm going to Poor Chatham just.

950
00:43:42.199 --> 00:43:43.960
To go see it. I don't think I'm going to camp.

951
00:43:43.960 --> 00:43:44.960
I'm not gonna do something weird.

952
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:48.039
Man. I have a healthy self preservation going on at

953
00:43:48.119 --> 00:43:51.440
fifty two. So I just my friend's got a boat,

954
00:43:51.480 --> 00:43:53.079
so he's you know, we could drive by it.

955
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:55.159
And I just I just want to get the overall vibe,

956
00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:55.880
do you know what I mean?

957
00:43:56.159 --> 00:43:59.280
Because there's such controversy of like, oh, it's just because

958
00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:02.280
the cannery down, bro, it's not because of scary monsters.

959
00:44:02.280 --> 00:44:04.119
But then the scary monster stories are like, now it's

960
00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:07.960
scary monsters. I just want to because again, you know,

961
00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:11.559
I'm a very intuitive human, like I pick up on

962
00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:13.000
a lot just I'm.

963
00:44:12.920 --> 00:44:14.480
Like, I'm just a dish for it.

964
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:16.679
And I can walk by a house and tell you

965
00:44:16.719 --> 00:44:19.400
if it's haunted, because my spine does this weird tingly

966
00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:22.360
thing like it just goes right up into the brain

967
00:44:22.440 --> 00:44:24.800
and just get the goosebumps down the shoulders. It's pretty wild.

968
00:44:24.840 --> 00:44:27.360
But yeah, I can absolutely feel those things. So I

969
00:44:27.440 --> 00:44:31.360
just I for my own self, just want to, you know,

970
00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:33.280
go buy that place and get the vibe of the

971
00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:36.079
overall vibe. But uh, And it's funny because I do

972
00:44:36.159 --> 00:44:38.880
watch a lot of the small Town Monsters, those guys,

973
00:44:38.920 --> 00:44:40.599
and I know that they've been going to Area A,

974
00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:43.000
and I totally feel like I know exactly where that is.

975
00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:45.480
And I won't say it out loud, but I I

976
00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:47.519
if it is where I think it is. I have

977
00:44:47.639 --> 00:44:50.360
been camping down in those areas quite a bit as well,

978
00:44:51.239 --> 00:44:53.719
and would love to. Yeah, yeah, I have a good

979
00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:55.599
feeling of where it is because I saw one of

980
00:44:55.599 --> 00:44:57.960
the episodes where they pulled out of Harbor, and again

981
00:44:58.039 --> 00:45:00.519
I've been there enough to know certain places.

982
00:45:02.000 --> 00:45:04.480
Yeah, there's there's so many, so many things that have

983
00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:08.000
happened on the Kenai Peninsula. And I'm thinking of another

984
00:45:08.039 --> 00:45:12.719
person I talked to, uh, and they had it was

985
00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:16.400
in Port Graham, which is kind of you know, down

986
00:45:16.400 --> 00:45:21.199
in that same area as Port Chatham and his daughter

987
00:45:21.400 --> 00:45:23.800
saw what she said was like a large ape like

988
00:45:23.880 --> 00:45:26.840
creature growling by the house and they found footprints and

989
00:45:26.880 --> 00:45:31.199
there's screams and whoops from nearby lakes. That's nine thirty

990
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:35.559
if people haven't listened to that. But yeah, the whole area,

991
00:45:35.599 --> 00:45:37.840
I mean, you could spend a whole lifetime I think

992
00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:41.039
exploring just that peninsula and looking at big footstep.

993
00:45:41.119 --> 00:45:45.199
Oh yeah, no, it's really and I would you know,

994
00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:47.559
and again like I would love to see you on

995
00:45:47.760 --> 00:45:50.559
like you know, all real in front of these but

996
00:45:50.639 --> 00:45:50.920
I don't.

997
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:52.800
I don't know what I'm loved to do by myself.

998
00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:54.960
But if there's people down here in the Kenai Peninsula

999
00:45:54.960 --> 00:45:57.079
that are listening to me and any way that they

1000
00:45:57.079 --> 00:45:59.000
can reach out in contact me, and if they do

1001
00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:02.320
do like you know, explorations or you know, like go

1002
00:46:02.360 --> 00:46:04.920
out and camp for a few days, I am so down.

1003
00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:07.039
I bring good snacks.

1004
00:46:07.400 --> 00:46:10.639
I would love to go, but be surrounded by people

1005
00:46:11.320 --> 00:46:14.079
in safety, because yeah, I mean, you are vulnerable when

1006
00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:16.119
you're by yourself, and I know that there's kind of

1007
00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:19.599
like a little more of an interest at least of

1008
00:46:19.760 --> 00:46:22.440
what I've heard with your viewers calling them with women

1009
00:46:22.679 --> 00:46:26.000
alone with them out about it seems that we draw

1010
00:46:26.039 --> 00:46:28.360
them in more, whether it's like the smell of our

1011
00:46:28.400 --> 00:46:33.239
pheromones or our actual you know, energy, feminine energy, and

1012
00:46:33.360 --> 00:46:35.679
I you know, and again I kind of feel that,

1013
00:46:35.719 --> 00:46:39.360
you know, I defend them in the sense where it's like, bro,

1014
00:46:39.480 --> 00:46:42.119
they've been here, like way long time. I think they've

1015
00:46:42.159 --> 00:46:44.960
been here for a very very long time. I believe

1016
00:46:45.000 --> 00:46:46.679
the dog man. Now I'm starting to believe more than

1017
00:46:46.719 --> 00:46:49.400
that guy. They have been here for a long time.

1018
00:46:49.440 --> 00:46:51.639
And I feel like they were soldiers of some sort

1019
00:46:51.719 --> 00:46:53.840
back in the time, and there's some unwritten rule that

1020
00:46:53.840 --> 00:46:55.400
they're not allowed to kill us.

1021
00:46:55.719 --> 00:46:57.559
I mean if they get into a scuffle.

1022
00:46:57.599 --> 00:47:00.920
Obviously, because men or a lot of men and women too,

1023
00:47:01.199 --> 00:47:02.119
we do packed.

1024
00:47:01.960 --> 00:47:03.559
And go for walks because we have to be gouse

1025
00:47:03.559 --> 00:47:05.000
of the bear. And I don't think.

1026
00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:08.559
They love the violence parts of us. And I think

1027
00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:11.119
that's why they'll be a little territorial. If we're getting

1028
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:13.840
close to their like stomping grounds or their breeding ground

1029
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:16.559
or their nursery or whatever, that they're going to be

1030
00:47:16.599 --> 00:47:18.840
like get out of here. You know, they're gonna scare

1031
00:47:18.840 --> 00:47:20.880
the crap out of you. But I don't know, you know,

1032
00:47:21.000 --> 00:47:22.360
you know what I mean, Like they could come into

1033
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:24.480
the in the middle of the night. Those guys could

1034
00:47:24.480 --> 00:47:27.760
come into a town and decimate a town and no problem.

1035
00:47:27.960 --> 00:47:29.679
They could send four or five of them in and

1036
00:47:29.719 --> 00:47:31.440
they could take out so many people.

1037
00:47:31.519 --> 00:47:32.119
Think about it.

1038
00:47:32.840 --> 00:47:34.639
You tell you hear these people talk about how they

1039
00:47:34.840 --> 00:47:36.159
they bang on the wall.

1040
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:37.880
Do you know how big these guys are.

1041
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:39.639
They can lift your home and take it with you,

1042
00:47:40.119 --> 00:47:43.039
Like if they wanted to get in and harmonied, they will.

1043
00:47:43.119 --> 00:47:46.119
And like listening to your show last night, they spoke

1044
00:47:46.159 --> 00:47:48.119
to what we spoke about earlier, you know, with her

1045
00:47:48.159 --> 00:47:52.039
saying that they're more like tricksters. They want to be harassing,

1046
00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:54.559
like and I almost feel like toe like if that's

1047
00:47:54.599 --> 00:47:56.760
like the juveniles, you know what I mean, like coming

1048
00:47:56.800 --> 00:48:00.719
out to harass the no hairy people.

1049
00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:07.119
Right exactly. I think there's definitely oh yeah, it's it's

1050
00:48:07.239 --> 00:48:10.000
be prepared for the worst. But also I mean there's

1051
00:48:10.039 --> 00:48:12.760
just because as you said, there's areas where there's predators

1052
00:48:12.760 --> 00:48:16.679
like bears outside of Bigfoot, but you know it's it's

1053
00:48:17.000 --> 00:48:21.159
don't try to trick them, you know, have respect. Those

1054
00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:24.599
are are the main the main things that that I

1055
00:48:24.760 --> 00:48:29.199
think of. But it's like, my goodness, Yeah, once you

1056
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:32.039
start just having the right attitude and you're doing this

1057
00:48:32.079 --> 00:48:35.199
for the right reasons, you can have some really really

1058
00:48:35.239 --> 00:48:38.480
interesting things happen. And I think that there have been

1059
00:48:38.880 --> 00:48:44.760
maybe there's definitely been a short or a small amount

1060
00:48:44.840 --> 00:48:47.000
of times where I mean you've got like the story

1061
00:48:47.039 --> 00:48:49.960
of Port Chatham, where you know, the town was pretty

1062
00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:52.840
much run out. But I mean, as you said, and

1063
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:56.760
I agree with you, if they were really wanting to

1064
00:48:56.800 --> 00:49:00.000
take us out all the time, the guy can't image

1065
00:49:00.119 --> 00:49:02.639
and the number of stories that we would have where

1066
00:49:02.719 --> 00:49:06.440
it just we would be constantly being you know, really

1067
00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:09.039
messed with. And so I think a lot of it

1068
00:49:09.079 --> 00:49:11.880
is just you know, leave us alone and get out

1069
00:49:11.880 --> 00:49:14.119
of our area. As you shared in a few of

1070
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:15.119
your stories.

1071
00:49:15.880 --> 00:49:17.639
Yeah, they're like just stay in your lane, we'll stay

1072
00:49:17.679 --> 00:49:21.280
in ours. And I guarantee, I'll put money on. The

1073
00:49:21.320 --> 00:49:25.679
government absolutely knows everything about these creatures that are out there,

1074
00:49:25.719 --> 00:49:27.719
and this is why so many places are restricted or

1075
00:49:27.760 --> 00:49:29.920
band to going. And it's just kind of like an

1076
00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:33.239
unwritten rule of like, yeah, they're there, but we're not

1077
00:49:33.239 --> 00:49:36.039
going to admit it because then think about the ramifications

1078
00:49:36.039 --> 00:49:37.800
of once they admitted it, do you know what I mean,

1079
00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:40.400
there would be full on hunting parties, so going massacre

1080
00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:42.840
them all or whatever, and there's you know, I feel

1081
00:49:42.880 --> 00:49:46.079
like there's a finite balance somewhere that's you know, either

1082
00:49:46.159 --> 00:49:49.760
universally written, godly written, spiritually written, whatever you want to

1083
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:52.639
call it. But there's just some rule that's I would

1084
00:49:52.639 --> 00:49:54.880
love to find. I looked it for the book the

1085
00:49:54.880 --> 00:49:58.559
Manual of What's going on here, because it's so inquisitive,

1086
00:49:58.840 --> 00:50:01.320
but also it's just you know, and also what a

1087
00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:04.559
beautiful thing because it keeps us all so engaged and

1088
00:50:04.639 --> 00:50:07.199
keeps us all in conversation, whether it's you know, not

1089
00:50:07.280 --> 00:50:10.559
the same, the same and different, different, whatever, but it's

1090
00:50:10.599 --> 00:50:12.599
engaging us and we're all in a community. I mean,

1091
00:50:12.760 --> 00:50:15.880
I think, you know, Bigfoot has made a bigger, wonderful

1092
00:50:15.920 --> 00:50:17.679
society than anything else.

1093
00:50:18.320 --> 00:50:19.719
I think they're doing something right.

1094
00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:22.440
Right absolutely, And I agree with you that you know,

1095
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:27.920
the government does know something. I mean, there's a conversation

1096
00:50:28.360 --> 00:50:32.280
that will be out in a few days from recording,

1097
00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:35.760
so listeners of this will have already heard it. But

1098
00:50:36.400 --> 00:50:39.159
I mean, I was able to have a guy come

1099
00:50:39.239 --> 00:50:43.559
on camera who is a veteran who talked about how

1100
00:50:43.800 --> 00:50:50.519
he was in briefings at Fort Lewis and up in

1101
00:50:50.800 --> 00:50:54.480
somewhere in Alaska. He wouldn't say where, but they were

1102
00:50:54.559 --> 00:50:58.960
actually briefed on what to do if you see a

1103
00:50:59.039 --> 00:51:02.239
sasquatch and how that goes down.

1104
00:51:02.440 --> 00:51:05.519
And I was just, no, I can't wait for that one.

1105
00:51:05.599 --> 00:51:08.079
It was wild. I mean, and he's actually on camera.

1106
00:51:08.239 --> 00:51:10.280
I mean, the people that are starting to come forward,

1107
00:51:10.480 --> 00:51:13.960
it's absolutely intense. So it's cool stuff.

1108
00:51:14.199 --> 00:51:18.360
Yeah, I love that, But yeah, I love that, and

1109
00:51:18.760 --> 00:51:22.159
I thank them as well, because you know, watching listening

1110
00:51:22.159 --> 00:51:25.480
to it is a wonderful, but watching them relive their

1111
00:51:25.559 --> 00:51:29.119
experience give so much more detail because it's you know,

1112
00:51:29.199 --> 00:51:31.519
you read their body and you see, you know how

1113
00:51:31.559 --> 00:51:33.400
they are, and you just you just know.

1114
00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:35.239
It so genuine, you know. And I do enjoy that.

1115
00:51:35.280 --> 00:51:37.199
And I apologize that I didn't necessarily want to be

1116
00:51:37.199 --> 00:51:38.519
on camera, but my.

1117
00:51:38.519 --> 00:51:39.159
Story is true.

1118
00:51:39.480 --> 00:51:43.880
Oh absolutely, And I really like either either types of

1119
00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:48.440
interviews are are fantastic. But I wanted to also point

1120
00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:51.719
out you kind of had alluded to if people want

1121
00:51:51.760 --> 00:51:53.320
to reach out to you, it's okay. And I know

1122
00:51:53.400 --> 00:51:56.760
that you had put down when you signed up for

1123
00:51:56.840 --> 00:51:59.639
the interview that you're okay for people to reach out

1124
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:03.079
to you through your email, right, Yeah, yeah.

1125
00:52:02.840 --> 00:52:04.800
That's great. I would love that. I guess what. I

1126
00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:06.239
love the community and I.

1127
00:52:06.159 --> 00:52:08.440
Would love to you know, I always say, I'm like,

1128
00:52:08.559 --> 00:52:10.039
I would just love to go out there and you know,

1129
00:52:10.119 --> 00:52:12.719
look and you know, and again, like when I go

1130
00:52:12.800 --> 00:52:16.159
out and on any walk into the woods, I always

1131
00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:20.159
do set intention and it's you know, I'm here for

1132
00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:20.960
a peaceful walk.

1133
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.599
I respect and honor all of the nature here.

1134
00:52:24.280 --> 00:52:26.119
You know, anything I can do to help, I'm here,

1135
00:52:26.440 --> 00:52:28.880
you know, And that's I just set intention every time

1136
00:52:28.920 --> 00:52:31.360
I go in, and I feel like, you know, I

1137
00:52:31.400 --> 00:52:33.039
feel like, you know, in the sense that they can

1138
00:52:33.079 --> 00:52:35.760
pick up that frequency and that vibe, that energy that

1139
00:52:35.880 --> 00:52:36.239
you know.

1140
00:52:36.239 --> 00:52:39.360
That low key vibe of like cool, this one's non

1141
00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:40.679
threatened out a problem.

1142
00:52:41.039 --> 00:52:42.719
So oh absolutely, yeah.

1143
00:52:42.880 --> 00:52:44.679
I would love to buy more people like that to

1144
00:52:44.760 --> 00:52:46.960
hang out with and go do adventures around here, because

1145
00:52:47.000 --> 00:52:49.880
this is the most magnificent state I have ever ever

1146
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:53.119
lived in, and I've lived in quite a few and

1147
00:52:53.159 --> 00:52:55.440
people here are just really cool and there's a lot

1148
00:52:55.480 --> 00:52:58.800
to do and there's a lot to adventure, and yeah,

1149
00:52:58.840 --> 00:52:59.440
really excited.

1164
00:53:51.159 --> 00:53:54.280
conversation and sharing what you've experienced so far.

1165
00:53:56.000 --> 00:53:57.920
Well, thank you Jeremiah for having me.

1166
00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:01.639
And again, thank you to anybody and everybody who has

1167
00:54:01.800 --> 00:54:05.280
called in and shared their experiences that have legitimately helped

1168
00:54:05.400 --> 00:54:08.320
me a lot, and I thank them and I thank

1169
00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:09.280
you all very much.

1170
00:54:11.000 --> 00:54:14.000
Have you ever heard all the accounts of bigfoot activity

1171
00:54:14.079 --> 00:54:17.280
around Oakridge, Oregon and you think to yourself, man, I

1172
00:54:17.280 --> 00:54:20.159
would love to get out in those woods and experience

1173
00:54:20.199 --> 00:54:24.719
it for myself. Well, guess what this year you can

1174
00:54:25.360 --> 00:54:28.320
If this is interesting to you, stay tuned because it's

1175
00:54:28.360 --> 00:54:33.320
pretty cool. Sasquatch Summer Fest is coming up July tenth

1176
00:54:33.360 --> 00:54:37.000
through the eleventh, twenty twenty six. It's going to be

1177
00:54:37.079 --> 00:54:41.159
even better than the previous year's reason number one, I'll

1178
00:54:41.159 --> 00:54:43.440
be one of the speakers. It's going to be wild.

1179
00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:49.039
I'll probably I'll say this. There may be stuff you

1180
00:54:49.079 --> 00:54:55.639
haven't heard anywhere else, because let's just say sometimes it's well,

1181
00:54:55.800 --> 00:54:57.800
you just got to be there. We'll leave it that

1182
00:54:57.920 --> 00:55:00.599
more about looking for Bigfoot in the Oak Woods. Now

1183
00:55:00.679 --> 00:55:05.800
check this out. You may know Jason Kenzie from his

1184
00:55:05.880 --> 00:55:10.760
documentary series Searching for Sasquatch. Well, this year you can

1185
00:55:10.800 --> 00:55:13.880
not only go to the festival, but you can also

1186
00:55:14.800 --> 00:55:21.519
sign up for a track deep in the wild forest

1187
00:55:21.639 --> 00:55:26.280
outside of Oakridge with Jason Kenzie to the Bigfoot spots

1188
00:55:26.679 --> 00:55:30.239
to look for Bigfoot. There's only eight spots to sign

1189
00:55:30.320 --> 00:55:33.920
up for this. And yes, this will also be filmed

1190
00:55:34.440 --> 00:55:37.159
for the next chapter in his documentary series, which is

1191
00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:40.280
Searching for Sasquatch. This is a once in a lifetime deal.

1192
00:55:40.480 --> 00:55:43.559
It's just it's going to be a wild, wild experience.

1193
00:55:45.199 --> 00:55:48.639

that you guys can can get a little help with

1199
00:56:12.719 --> 00:56:16.000
the cost there. Appreciate that, Priscilla. I hope to see

1200
00:56:16.039 --> 00:56:20.280
you at the booth in Oakridge this year. We can

1201
00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:22.599
talk about your encounter. Was able to talk to so

1202
00:56:22.679 --> 00:56:26.239
many people last year and the year before. It is

1203
00:56:26.360 --> 00:56:29.199
an incredible time. You're not going to want to miss it,

1204
00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:33.960
and I'll see you there. Before we wrap this episode,

1205
00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:36.639
I want to say something directly to a very specific

1206
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:40.159
group of listeners. If you're in the military, any branch

1207
00:56:40.440 --> 00:56:43.159
or forces, and if you've seen something that no one

1208
00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:46.440
can explain, or if you're a National Park ranger or

1209
00:56:46.519 --> 00:56:49.880
forestry worker who's been told to stay quiet, or if

1210
00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:53.480
you're a pilot who's seen something strange down on the ground,

1211
00:56:53.880 --> 00:56:56.679
or if you're with the FBI a federal agency, or

1212
00:56:56.719 --> 00:57:00.239
working intelligence and you stumbled upon something you're not allowed

1213
00:57:00.320 --> 00:57:03.320
to talk about. And if you're a firefighter, paramedic, or

1214
00:57:03.320 --> 00:57:06.960
search and rescue responder who's heard screams or found tracks

1215
00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:10.119
that didn't make sense. If you're in the logging industry

1216
00:57:11.079 --> 00:57:13.960
on a remote oil field, or a trucker with government

1217
00:57:14.039 --> 00:57:17.679
contracts and you've had something happen that you've never told

1218
00:57:17.679 --> 00:57:21.320
a soul. And if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist,

1219
00:57:21.480 --> 00:57:24.880
or a field researcher under contract who has found evidence

1220
00:57:25.000 --> 00:57:28.639
you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor, a missionary,

1221
00:57:28.760 --> 00:57:31.920
or someone on a spiritual retreat and you saw something

1222
00:57:32.000 --> 00:57:35.760
that shook your faith, or if you work in the shadows, CIA,

1223
00:57:35.960 --> 00:57:39.360
NSA or anything with clearance and you've seen what the

1224
00:57:39.360 --> 00:57:44.000
public hasn't, then I want to talk to you, even

1225
00:57:44.039 --> 00:57:49.079
if it's anonymous. You can reach me at Bigfoot Society

1226
00:57:49.159 --> 00:57:52.199
at gmail dot com. The world needs to hear what

1227
00:57:52.239 --> 00:57:56.760
you've been forced to carry alone. And you're not alone.

1228
00:57:57.000 --> 00:58:02.079
You've got the story. We've got the like see you

1229

in the woods. Thank you for listening to this episode

1231
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:10.440
us that the world is bigger and stranger than we think,

1232
00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:13.440
and that the truth is often hiding just beyond the

1233
00:58:13.440 --> 00:58:16.679
tree line. If you enjoyed this episode, please be sure
