Something Followed Him for 20 Years in the New Hampshire Woods

0:00 You're listening to Bigfoot Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us, all right, Welcome back to another episode of Bigfoot Society. We've got a new friend on the show today. We've got Doc with us. Doc as an outdoorsman. We don't get too many New Hampshire people on the Show's always a privilege to have those individuals on.

0:47 I grew up very close to New Hampshire, just over the mass line in a small town called Northfield and Western mass so I'm very familiar with New Hampshire and how it's just a beautiful, beautiful country up there. As listeners from New Hampshire have it a very nice up there, and the tax. So yeah, beautiful. It is a fun time, absolutely, But Doc, you're on the show to share some interesting things that you've experienced over the years, so I want to make sure that you have the time to do that. So you know, welcome to the show and feel free to share what you've experienced, all right. So yeah, and avid outdoorsman always have been hiking, fishing, hunting, hiking, you know, nearby trails and mountainous areas, so I'm pretty familiar with the woods. And to begin my story, I was heading home from work one one early evening. It was still light out but just about dusk, and it's and it's snowing. I come up over this rise and right for a sharp corner, there's this what I thought was a person in the middle of the road, just past the center line in my lane and with his back kind of just kind of towards away from me,

2:20 back towards me, and he was looking away from me. So I come over the rise and I slam on my brakes and as I'm skidding around trying to avoid this person, I stopped right next to it, right next to him, and that's when I realized that it wasn't a fur coat. And there was no other clothing visible, no shoes, And that's just what I remember from from the two seconds that I slammed on the brakes till that I stopped right next to it and my passenger door was I mean, I was a foot away from this thing, and I look out my window and it's kind of foggy. Like I said, it was snowing, and you know, there's a fog on the window glass. And I didn't see a ton, but what I did see was like a reddish brown longer for three or four inches long, and it just seemed dirty to me, and something didn't seem right. So I got the heck out of there really fast and just kept driving home. I was literally five minutes from my house. So the weirdest thing about it was any person, I think, any person that was standing in the road as I was coming over that hill would have looked over at me. And

3:53 this thing did not look at me, not even once. It didn't move, It didn't budge, didn't even flinch. Even when I stopped next to it, it was still back towards turned towards me. And that's when I said something's not right and I left. So that was the incident, I went about my life and kind of forgot about it and just wrote it off as a person. But those woods that it was looking into is my hunting area and hiking area and whatnot. So as I'm walking through these woods time after time, I always find this one part of the trail that seems like I always got creeped out there, and I'm not really sure why, or I wasn't sure why at the time. It always felt like something was watching me. It's just never seemed right.

5:02 And more times than not, and I was in these woods quite a bit, but more times than not, I would hear break breaking branches and stop and then and then not hear anything. And then one day I actually went to explore the cracking branches and I didn't see anything. But I found a old pile of rocks. So I'm looking through these rocks and just to find a cool one to bring home with me, and I didn't see anything, so I just kept going about my day Again. The next couple of weeks, I don't think I was out there, And like two weeks later, I went back out there and I actually walked past that pile of rocks again, and weirdly enough, and I'm thinking to myself, how could I have missed this? But right on the top of this and this is a huge piles like twenty twenty foot of boulders, probably five six feet tall, and right on the top was a twenty twenty five pound rose quartz, very clean, there was no moss on it. And I'm like, how could I have missed that? And it's like weird, And I just brought her home and didn't think anything of it. Again all there's a lot of these things that happened over the years that just seemed weird at

6:32 the time, and I wasn't really sure what was going on until I started listening to your podcast and then I started putting these things together and I'm like, no way. So that just led me to believe that the guy in the middle of the road wasn't a guy. For sure, it wasn't a guy. So year after year, I just keep going out there and just always heard breaking branches and stuff, and I know, you know, sometimes it could be something I was, like, a deer or whatever. But I got to tell you, for southern New Hampshire, which is supposed to be loaded with deer, this area was not.

7:26 It was very odd. I got too deer out of that in twenty five years. That's pretty bad. And I'm not saying I'm a great hunter or anything, but I spent my time out there and I could only get too deer out of that. A lot of the times I was out there, everything was quiet. I never thought anything about it, but I always realized that there was no birds. There was no chipmunks or squirrels or you know, stuff like that. It was always quiet, and not always always, but more times than not it was quiet. So I'm thinking that this thing was out there watching me this whole time. Now I'm thinking that back then I wasn't.

8:18 Some other things that I came across was hunting. One day, I came across the pretty good size hunting blind on the ground. I had three walls, and I walked into it. It was pretty deep. I walked into it and it immediately smelled something awful, and I'm like, I'm thinking to myself, what was it here? Because it smells bad. So I got out of there pretty quick. A couple of years after that, so this incident was actually in like nineteen ninety five, and now we're probably jumping to twenty ten to twenty fifteen, and I'm out there hunting and I know the land pretty well. Like I said, I saw that blind. It smelled really bad. I've never smelt anything like it, which I thought was oddly strange. Probably fifty feet from that, maybe a year or two later, I see two footprints in the mud, bare feet, thinking back now that I wish I had taken a picture or gone home and got some plaster. I didn't know anything about that stuff back then. You know, I knew about bigfoot from you know, in search of and stuff, but always thought if they were around that they weren't out in my area. They were out west or in Canada,

9:52 you know, just like everybody else thinks. I guess. So once I saw the footprints, you know, and then they weren't huge. They were bigger than mine and I wear a size twelve thirteen, they were bigger than mine bare feet. It was bigger than my boot, so, you know, thirteen fourteen inches. Maybe it was a good sized footprint, and I'm like, who would be out here in bare feet? And it was like fall, so it wasn't warm. It was very odd, but again, just brushed it off. I know what I saw but I can't be sure that it was actually what I think it is. You know, it could have been a human. I suppose that's what I was thinking at the time. So then this one other incident, and that was a couple of years before I stopped going there. I've I've been up in Maine now for a few years, and I stopped going to that area probably five years before that, so it's probably been eightish years since I've been out in those woods.

11:07 I used to target practice out there, and one day I was tiger practicing and I'm next to a pond and out of the corner I wasn't shooting at this time, I was reloading or whatever I was doing, and out of the corner of my eye, I hear something, well, I hear something, and then I see something out of corner of my eye, and it's this branch going end over end through the woods into the pond that I'm sitting next to, when it was probably fifty feet away from me. So I just turn and I look, and I don't hear or see anything, but I'm curious, So I get up and I start walking down the trail towards where this branch came out of the woods from and I just stand there for fifteen twenty minutes and I and I stare, and I stare, and I see nothing, nothing, nothing.

12:07 End up walking that way back home, which I usually don't do because it's not really a trail, kind of just going through the forest at that point and then meet back up to the trail. But it was. It was just very odd. I I couldn't think of anything else that would have would have done that. And there was no person there. I would have seen him, I would have heard them. I stood there silent and just stared and I saw nothing. Uh So, as far as stuff like that, That's about it. The only other thing that I could think of that In that same area, I had a tree stand and I was there one night right until dark, and all of a sudden, I see a flashlight what I thought was a flashlight coming towards me through the woods, and they're following a rock wall, and I'm sitting there and just watching it, and it's bouncing like somebody walking with a flashlight. And then all of a sudden, fifteen feet from me, it just disappears gone, and there was silence, nothing, nothing happened. Nothing, I couldn't see anything, and I sat there for another ten minutes in my tree stand, like what am I going to do now? And I was a little scared and a little freaked out. So I got down really quick and

13:41 ran down the hill, which it's pretty steep hill, probably two hundred feet or so, down to the swamp area and then back to my truck. And that was one of the last times I was out there. I think I went out there a couple more times after that, but but that was pretty much it. I started doing other things and just stopped going there completely. So, yeah, that's my story. That's some fascinating stuff, doc. So yeah, a few questions I have for you. So you did mention, so it's nineteen ninety five when your initial road siding happens, correct, and we know it's in southern New Hampshire. We also were talking a little bit before recording that we're not going to get super specific just for particular reasons, but do you feel comfortable saying if it's on the west side or the east side of the state.

14:46 Yeah, it's southern central. We're fifteen minutes from Nashville, New Hampshire, ten minutes from Massachusetts border now I'm thirty minutes from Manchester, New Hampshire. It's in the Pelham, Wyndham Hudson area. It's kind of the woods have all three of these towns in it. Absolutely Listeners who aren't familiar with New Hampshire will kind of be like southern New Hampshire. That sounds like it's maybe not. But then if you look past, if you look into past episodes, Southeast New Hampshire has some stuff going on. You can look at the sighting map that I've put together on big for Society podcast dot com and just north up by Manchester. I mean there's been a ton of activity up there. Definitely would not Yeah, I wouldn't put it past this area at all. So a few questions about about what you saw that day.

16:01 So what were you driving specifically? I was the mid sized car. Okay, gotcha. So we're talking like maybe like a four door sedan something like that. Yeah, yeah, okay. So then you're you're sitting down in the car, so then your viewpoint, you're looking straight ahead, So what what part of the Bigfoot from the back of it? Then are you looking at? When I had stopped right next to it, all I could see all I could see. Was back Okay, okay, gotcha. And the head was above my sight. So as far as height, I'm guessing six feetish wasn't super tall. They weren't really bulky, if I was to guess it was, you know, a juvenile or a female, small female.

16:58 Do you remember any details about was it overly muscular or did it seem to be more lean or anything like that. Yeah, it was more lean. It wasn't thin, but it wasn't super muscular it was it was just kind of normalish. Gotcha. Were you able to notice anything about the arms at all? I know you've said a few times that you noticed the back of it. Yeah. Yeah. So when I came over that hill, I saw the whole thing, and like I said, there was no it was nothing but fur. There was no clothes, there was there was no pants, there was no shoes, there was you know, uh. The color from that distance looked to me like a reddish brown, and when I got closer it had more of a multicolored black and brown and reddish and maybe a couple of streaks of blonde in it. And again at that point, I couldn't see its head. And then I couldn't see the you know, below the waist either. Once once I had stopped right next to it.

18:16 Gotcha, Okay, that makes sense. So from the viewpoint that you had as you were getting up close to it, you could see the whole thing from the backside. What were the main things that told you that what you're looking at is not a a bear that's on its hind legs. Well, again, I'm a pretty good outdoorsman. I've been around quite a few bears. Yeah, I know what they look like, and that certainly wasn't a bear. Even a bear I think would have turned to see the car coming towards it and at least clinched. This thing did not budget, not even an inch.

19:06 Makes sense. Were there any details about it that you noticed that we're like, yeah, what I'm looking at was definitely not a bear. Besides the not flinching, Oh for sure. Just I mean obviously just standing up and was standing up straight. There was no slouching over. There was you know, the color of it, The length of the hair was you know, a lot longer than a bear. It just did not look like one at all. Absolutely. Yeah. So you stopped, You're about a foot away, which is so extremely close. Yeah, it's incredible how close that was. Can you tell me a bit of about how so you said you left the scene, You're like, I got to get out of here.

20:06 How it didn't seem right out? Yeah? Yeah, when I looked over at it and it didn't move, and and I'm looking at it at its fur, and it just looked really dirty, like just came out of a swamp. Really, it was wet, and I mean obviously it was snow and it was probably wet anyways, but it just looked dirty. And again, there's no bear out there that would not keep itself clean. Maybe a sick one, but right, right. So, in order for you to get where you were going after this, which it was, you were going back home, right, Yeah?

20:46 Did you have to keep going past where the bigfoot was in front of you? Or did you have to turn around to get back there? No? I just kept going. I had already been passed. I went past it already kind of. I mean I stopped right next to it, and then it went past. Oh okay, gotcha. Okay, so you you you stopped, it's a foot ahead of you. You kind of. Ye on the path on the passenger side. It was next to me. Yep, okay, gotcha. Okay, so you're it's on the passenger side, you're kind of looking there, so that makes sense because then you could just easily. Yeah around it, keep going right. Yeah, it wasn't abstructing my path, So got it?

21:29 Got it? That's cool. I think four is. I think that's all the questions that I Oh, when you got home, how long was it until you told someone else about what happened? I think I told my wife something weird happened, and we kind of laughed about it, and she may have said something like maybe it was bigfoot, and I'm sure we laughed about it. I don't don't exactly remember the conversation, but other than that, I don't think I told anybody else, and I just went about my life and kind of forgot about it.

22:11 Is bigfoot a thing that would ever come up in this area of New Hampshire where you were living. No, I've never heard anybody say anything about it, not seeing one anyways. Yeah, and I can I can say that from experience too, because, as we were talking about before the show, I grew up in mass but it would be over by Keenan Winchester, so that's that's south that's more southwest New Hampshire ish and there's so much activity that happens over there by Merlborough. And I was there for a good eighteen years and I never heard any of it, right, It never ever came up. And like, now I'm into it, and like the stories that come out of like Marlborough and that area are just wild.

23:05 Yeah, and it's like, that's very incredible. Just people don't talk, they do not talk about it. Yeah, I mean it took me thirty years. Yeah, absolutely, Why did you decide to come forward after thirty years of not really putting it out there? Well, I mean, you know, it's always been in the back of my mind, but I was never really sure until I started listening to your podcasts and listening to them every single day and people coming up with these accounts and I'm like, wow, that happened to me, and then wow, that happened to me, And I just came up with this epiphany that that's what I saw and this is what it did while it was watching me for thirty years, almost thirty years. It's shocking to think about.

23:56 That now, it really is. It's just that's wild and yeah, I think that you're really you know, you said it in a good way, is you know, And I hear because I'm the one doing the interviewing, and you just you're right. You start to hear these patterns, and if you've experienced something yourself, you're like, oh, okay, it's it's not really a big deal if I share what happened to me, Like it is literally a thing where everyone Yeah, there's they're all over the place. You know, it's not a thing that I should be ashamed of or whatever. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, So yeah, that's why I called you.

24:40 I'm glad. I'm glad that we got connected. You're about the the rock pile in the rose Quarts. That's really interesting. How big was the rose quarts? It was about it's about the size of a big bowling ball. Who yeah, it was good size. It was a it's a beautiful rock. And I'm talking to myself, like, how could I have missed this? It's right on the top. I didn't miss it the first time. I didn't. I know, I didn't. Now it was it was set there for me.

25:21 That's man. It is It is so interesting. Did anything out of the ordinary happen after you brought it home. So I do have where those woods are. They can get to my house through a town forest and a couple of little swamps and and be in my backyard, which is power lines. So there was a possibility it was back there watching me as well. I'm not sure. I didn't see anything, didn't hear anything, other than one night, our house, the neighbor's house on either side, we all got woken up like two thirty in the morning, something screaming out in the backwoods like a woman. Can't say for sure or what it was. People were saying, you know, the neighbors were saying, oh, it's a fisher cat, which very well could have been. I don't know, but I guess that would be the oddest thing that happened.

26:27 Out back, gotcha, and and you, being an outdoorsman, I mean you would know. I'm guessing what a fisher cat sounds like, what a fox sounds like. We both know that fox didn't sound really terrible, like just absolutely demons out there, but you know what that sounds like. Yep, I definitely do. And actually there's a possibility that there could have been a mountain lion back there as well. I did see one. Years later, after that incident of the screaming woman in the back, I saw one crossing the highway three cars in front of me, with three cars in front of me, so all four of us saw it like a mile from my house. So it could have been a mountain lion as well, But I don't know.

27:23 Well we both know that mountain lions don't exist in New England. Yeah sure they did even say it with a straight face. I know. I know. Yeah, well there there everywhere, trust me, there are. I saw one. Yeah, absolutely. Man. Growing up, it was like the wildlife guys would be like, oh yeah, there's no mountainins. We would see him in the backyards and in Northfield on main Street, like people are seeing mountains. It's just crazy, nuts, it's nuts. But how long were the when when you heard that noise that sounded like the woman screaming? How long were they? Were they the shore bursts or are they very long? Or no? It was kind of a longer scream and they lasted. It went on for probably fifteen minutes, and there was like ten people outside listening to this outside their houses.

28:17 Now imagine, so you're saying the whole ordeal was probably about fifteen minutes. Yeah, okay, and from being woken up from the noise and then all of us outside. Yeah, so imagine, like you're trying to say, okay, from the time if you could even realize this, from the time it took a breath and it started screaming, like, could you tell how long those bursts were from then it had to stop and probably take another breath. Yeah, if i'd have to guess, you know, twenty thirty seconds maybe wow? Yeah, Okay, it was a good burst. Yeah, yeah, I think because mountain lions are usually shorter, right, trying to remember?

29:03 Yeah, I think so. I I looked it up and it didn't quite sound like it was a mountain lions. Again, I can't be sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The so the tracks that you saw, yep, five those Okay, Yeah, that's what That's what I was going to get at. Okay, looked pretty normal to me. That's why I was skeptical at the time. I think I did take a picture, but I I've lost it since. So you saw a few footprints, did you get any two of them? Okay?

29:43 Could you get anything about the way it was walking, From the way that the footprints were set up. Or were how it was probably a slow walk. I don't think they had a super long stride, if I'm gonna guess, and I probably should have been more aware of it, but I didn't know what I. Was really looking at exactly. Yeah, the stride could have been four feet apart, I'm not sure, but maybe a little less. But that's probably pretty accurate for the size that I saw.

30:30 Were they in a line or were they next to each other? They were in a line, Okay, gotcha. Do you remember anything about the orientation of the toes. Yeah, I mean it was in not really deep mud, but it was obviously and enough mud to make a print, so I I couldn't really tell you that for sure. I mean it kind of looked distorted to me. Gotcha. Gotcha? That is that is really interesting.

31:12 And those prints were fifty feet from that deer blind that I saw that that had the scent in it. Yeah, which it's like, how many guys are just going to be out there with really large feet, yeah, with no shoes on. I got to tell you, I was in those woods more than anybody else ninety eight to ninety nine percent of the time except for hunting season. I was out there alone. Nobody else was ever out ever, ever out there. Occasionally I'd seen somebody walking their dog occasionally, and then other times maybe some four wheelers were out there in their jeeps or something, but hardly anybody was ever out there.

32:02 I was by myself ninety nine percent of the time. Gotcha. So it sounds like, well, it sounds like this this area was definitely readily accessible to the general public. Oh yeah, yeah, there there's several ways to get into it. There's several trails, yeah for sure. Okay, cool. Cool. So you talked about seeing a weird light in the in the woods, which that's that's something I have not experienced yet. Yeah, but it's very interesting. Was it? Did I have a certain color to it? It was just like a dull flashlight, just whitish, and it was probably, you know, four feet off the ground, like somebody's holding it down on their arm on, you know, holding it in the hand down either side.

33:03 Did the the size of the actual light did that line up with the normal size of what a flashlight would give off as well? Yeah? Pretty much. Yeah, That's what I thought at the time. And then it disappeared, and I'm like, what was that. Yeah, that's that's the weird part, because you know, right logically, you're like, well, it might have been a flashlight, right, But then you're it disappeared like you didn't see anyone. Gone, and there was silence, nothing but darkness. And I'm fifteen feet away up in a tree. Yeah, so okay, So on top of that, then you're not hearing like something stepping nothing, no footsteps, nothing like that.

33:46 Wow. And and that is probably two hundred to two hundred and fifty feet away from where I saw it on the road. Yards away, yeah, okay, yards. Yeah, so all this stuff is. Really close by each other. It's close, yeah, close proximity. The footprints were probably a quarter mile into the woods from from all these incidents. Yeah, all the branch breaks again within a quarter mile of where I saw it, where I saw the light, where the branch. These are all right in that area.

34:35 So you're so you would spend time in this is deer stand up in a tree. And yeah, so you're saying, so you were in here for twenty twenty years, right. Oh, I hunted in that for twenty twenty five years. Yeah, and the whole time, Now, did you see more than two deer. You're just saying you you harvested a toll two deer at that. I harvested a total two deer out of there. I did see many more, but there should have been a lot more deer in that area, and there never was, absolutely and they always seemed so skittish. And I've always wondered, why.

35:17 Is this area, you know, spending a lot of time in there? Were there any other weird things that that would happen or be reported, or missing people or anything like that. No, nope, never heard anything about that. No missing people, nothing. Yeah, I can't think of anything like that now. Pretty fake placed. And I felt safe too. I'd never felt threatened. I just felt a little creeped out, like something was watching me all the time. And you know, I realize why now, but that's the only emotion I ever felt, was just a little strangeness. I never felt threat endeavor. Even when the branch, even when the branch got thrown, there was no there was no fear out of me or anything.

36:11 I stuck around and I waited for twenty minutes where I saw the branch coming from, and then watch the woods, and I just didn't feel anything. Remind me were you able to track down that the branch that was thrown. Now, I went into the middle of the pond, so okay, yeah, it probably from the time I turned my head to see it flipping end over end to the time it went into the into the middle of the pond. You know, it was a couple of seconds, and it probably I visually saw it travel eighty feet.

37:00 Wow. Yeah, my goodness. And I could hear it before that. Wild wild stuff. It's it is crazy. I'm looking at the map again. It's crazy how how close it is to down there to the state line. I mean, yeah, right, but there there are woods down there for. Sure, oh yeah. And then I mean you've got like North Chelmsford right right over and loll and stuff. It's just crazy, man. Yeah, exactly. We're surrounded by cities. I mean, there's hundreds of houses around, there's thousands of people. Never ever heard anybody say it.

37:41 But yet there are definitely people having stuff happen. Because every once in a while, someone from like the North Shore or southern New Hampshire like yourself will just send an email and then we'll actually get to talk. And you know, I would say, if if people are listening to this and they've had things happen in the same area. You know, we can. I would love to hear from you. And even if it's a thing where you don't want to go on record, you know that is okay, or we can do you know, audio only, like this episode is audio only for that reason. But Doc, thank you so much for sharing what you experienced. I want to make sure that you're able to share everything from your experiences over the years.

38:28 Yeah, that's all I can think of. If I can think of anything else, I'll definitely give you a buzz. But I appreciate you having me on so much, very much. Thank you much. Have you ever heard all the accounts of bigfoot activity around Oakridge, Oregon and you think to yourself, Man, I would love to get out in those woods and experience it for myself. Well guess what this year you can If this is interesting to you, stay tuned because it's pretty cool. Sasquatch Summer Fest is coming up July tenth through the eleventh, twenty twenty six. It's gonna be even better than the previous year's. Reason number one, I'll be one of the speakers. It's gonna be wild. I'll probably I'll say this, there may be stuff you haven't heard anywhere else, because let's just say sometimes it's well, you just gotta be there. We'll leave it that more about looking for Bigfoot in the Oakridge Woods. Now check this out.

39:29 You may know Jason Kenzie from his documentary series Searching for Sasquatch. Well, this year you can not only go to the festival, but you can also sign up for a track deep in the wild forest outside of Oakridge with Jason Kenzie to the Bigfoot Spots to look for Bigfoot. There's only eight spots to sign up for this, and yes, this will also be filmed for the next chapter in his documentary series, which is Searching for Sasquatch. This is a once in a lifetime deal. It's just trust it's going to be a wild, wild experience. To get a ticket, head on over to Sasquatch Summerfest dot com and listeners can use the code b sp like Bigfoot Society podcast in order to get a two day pass for the price of a one day pass. So thanks to Priscilla for giving me that code so that you guys can can get a little help with the costs there. Appreciate that Priscilla. I hope to see you at the booth in Oakridge this year. We can talk about your encounter.

40:49 Was able to talk to so many people last year and the year before. It is an incredible time. You're not going to want to miss it, and I'll see you there. Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've seen something that no one can explain, or if you're a National park ranger or forestry worker who's been told to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot who's seen something strange down on the ground, or if you're with the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And if you're a firefighter, paramedic, or search and rescue responder who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense.

41:36 If you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith, or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA or anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't, then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous.
