What happens when a group of kids stumble into a mysterious tree structure in the swamps of central Wisconsin — and are chased out by something massive, fast, and unseen?

In this adrenaline-charged and heartfelt episode, we sit down with Logan, an outdoorsman from the Tomorrow River area, to hear about the terrifying childhood experience that changed his life forever. From being surrounded by something in the forest, to the sound of crashing limbs and inhuman screams, Logan recounts in vivid detail the encounter that still haunts him.

But the mystery doesn’t stop there — Logan shares new stories involving family members, BFRO investigators, and chilling nighttime whoops, howls, and huffing noises. We dive into Wisconsin’s secret Sasquatch activity, mysterious glowing eyes, and a place his dad calls “Squatch’s Patch.”

Whether you’re a seasoned researcher or a first-time listener, this episode delivers a raw, authentic glimpse into the unknown — and why Logan can’t bowhunt alone anymore.

Tune in for sounds in the night, unexplained structures, and a question we all ask: what’s really out there in the woods?

00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:03.240
You're listening to Big for Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron

2
00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:05.919
Tonight's story isn't from a hiker or a camper. It's

3
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:09.039
from a Wisconsin outdoorsman who grew up running wild in

4
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:12.919
the woods along the Tomorrow River. But one summer day,

5
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:15.560
deep in the pines, Logan and his cousin found something

6
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:19.640
they weren't supposed to find. A strange tree structure, crashing

7
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:24.280
sounds in every direction, and a presence that chased them fast, furious,

8
00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:27.000
and unseen, out of the forest like a freight train.

9
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:30.679
This wasn't just a scare, this was something bigger, and

10
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.719
years later, Logan's still trying to understand what happened out

11
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:36.359
there and what continues to happen. So this is a

12
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:39.439
story of Logan, the boy who is chased to stay

13
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:41.920
with us. I picked the Society got the privilege of

14
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:45.960
talking to Logan today. Logan is an outdoorsman from Wisconsin,

15
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:51.039
and he reached out to share some things that have

16
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:55.640
been happening in his area to some relatives of his.

17
00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:59.719
So welcome to the show, Logan. How's it going today?

18
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:01.520
I'm doing pretty good. How about yourself?

19
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:06.640
Doing great? Don't get a lot of Wisconsin reports on

20
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:08.920
the show. So I'm excited to talk to you tonight.

21
00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:11.400
You know, I'm going to go ahead and make sure

22
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.799
you have the time that you need to share what's

23
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:18.560
been going on there Logan, So you're welcome to take

24
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:19.159
it from here.

25
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:24.959
Okay, thank you well. First and foremost, I'd like to

26
00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:29.799
ask for any people that have had experiences in Wisconsin,

27
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:35.599
definitely reach out to Jeremiah to share your experience. I

28
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:37.799
definitely know I'm not the only one in Wisconsin that

29
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:43.319
has had weird encounters that have been most likely Bigfoot,

30
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:48.319
but it'd be very interesting to hear more stories from

31
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:54.400
any of you people out there from Wisconsin. So I

32
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:55.799
guess I'll start it off.

33
00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:58.159
With my parents encounter.

34
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.680
So, my dad used to live on like a family

35
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:08.199
farm and human my my mom when they were first

36
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:11.960
starting dating, they would cruise around in my in his

37
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:16.280
little old s time pickup truck and they would just

38
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:20.840
cruise around the back roads and stuff. And my dad

39
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:24.599
was really familiar with the area growing out there. The

40
00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:30.520
family farms from this area is probably only maybe two

41
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:35.599
miles three miles away, and if anyone out there is

42
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:41.719
familiar with the Tomorrow River, it's pretty close to that area,

43
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:50.639
which the area that has happened is public DNR public

44
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:54.240
hunting and fishing land, so anyone can go out there,

45
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:58.439
and I've run into a few boat hunters when I've

46
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:03.280
been out there. When I've been out there at nights,

47
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:06.479
I haven't run into anyone except for one time, and

48
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.879
I'm pretty sure that they were looking for a deer.

49
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:14.080
I believe it was October and we were coming out

50
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.759
there just to see if we could get any activity,

51
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:18.879
and it looked like there was a couple of people

52
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:23.680
that were probably tracking a deer in there. But take

53
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:26.800
it to my parents' story. Like I said, they were

54
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:31.879
driving around the back roads and stuff, and down the

55
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.919
road that they're driving, it's a dead end road and

56
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.719
at the very end of the road is a property.

57
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:42.599
I think it's a farm, but at the very end

58
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:47.240
there's a farm or someone that lives there. There's agriculture

59
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:51.960
fields around the area of a lot of wildlife. Like

60
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.599
I said, people go out there deer hunting, people fish

61
00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:00.080
to treat a stream for trout, and there's also a

62
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.879
uh private pond back there that the people used to

63
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:06.800
I'm not sure if they still do, but they used

64
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:11.560
to stock the pond with trout, and there were some

65
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:16.759
very big trout in that lake, probably some uproads of

66
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:21.399
twenty inches, so definitely getting enough food stores for something

67
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:25.439
that's as big as a big foot.

68
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:27.639
So yeah, they're.

69
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:34.639
Driving around and well, all of a sudden, something steps out.

70
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.399
They said it was large, larger than an average human,

71
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:44.199
and my mom says that as soon as they saw it,

72
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:48.600
it was like you blinked and it was gone. And

73
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:50.800
from what I've heard of how fast these things can

74
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:55.720
be and help work they can be, and especially something

75
00:04:55.800 --> 00:05:00.000
larger than a human walking upright on two legs. There

76
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:03.240
black bear in the area, but you're not going to

77
00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:06.360
see a bear across the road on two legs, and

78
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:08.360
you know you're gonna be able to see it for

79
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:11.480
an extended period of time, not just a blink of

80
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.480
the eye and it's gone.

81
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.360
So I guess I'll move on to my personal encounter

82
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.519
that I've had in the area.

83
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:26.160
When me and my cousin were young, we were probably

84
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:30.160
between the ages of I want to say, between eight

85
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:34.720
and twelve years old. I'm not sure exactly how old

86
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:38.199
I was, but you know, it's around the time frame

87
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:44.439
of probably twenty ten. Were like me and my cousin

88
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:48.160
and my other cousin when one cousin lives right on

89
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:50.439
the Tomorrow River, so we used to do all sorts

90
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:55.000
of shout fishing, and we were just country boys, so

91
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:57.560
we would mess around in the woods and do all

92
00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:00.600
sorts of stuff that normal.

93
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:01.959
Kid would.

94
00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:05.759
Not whatdays, I mean people are like they do a

95
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:08.399
lot with video games, and I mean I got into

96
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:12.920
that later, but when I was a kid around ten, we.

97
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:17.199
Were always out in the woods outside doing stuff. And

98
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:22.759
this time his dad had some bear bait leftover.

99
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:26.360
I think they were hunting there up north, and they

100
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:28.720
always get a bunch of bait and stuff to put

101
00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:30.439
out for the bears to see if they can bring

102
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:34.439
one them. And he had some leftover stuff that he

103
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:37.199
had to get rid of, and we knew that there

104
00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:41.879
had been bear in the area, very rare. My brothers

105
00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:45.959
had one bear encounter out there, but you don't really

106
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:52.879
see him too often in Sensuble scu h. So we

107
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:55.920
were gonna out there and there was one part of

108
00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.319
the woods, well there's multiple parts of the woods that

109
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:01.839
get pretty swampy, especially like I said, it runs along

110
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:06.240
the Tomorrow River. On the banks of the Tomorrow River,

111
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:09.560
there's lots of parts where it's just like sludgy muck

112
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.720
and stuff, and there's one part in the woods where

113
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:19.720
it's very very thick, swampy. I'm not sure what kind

114
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:22.279
of pine tree is, maybe like a spruce or something,

115
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:27.199
lots of those types of trees, which makes it just

116
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:31.000
like just like I said, it makes it very thick

117
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.040
to walk around back there and stuff. And we're going

118
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:35.720
to go leave some of it out there, and I

119
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:38.360
think we had one of his dad's trail cans that

120
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:43.360
we put up, and yeah, we put it out and

121
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:47.519
we were kind of exploring the woods, and I remember

122
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:49.879
we had jumped a few deer while we were back there,

123
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:55.600
but yeah, we were walking around after we got done

124
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.319
doing that stuff. I remember that it had rained while

125
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:01.759
we were out there, but it wasn't It wasn't like

126
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.639
a real hard, crazy rain. It was kind of like

127
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.680
one of those rains where it's sunny out and like

128
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:12.040
rain just starts falling out of the sky, even though

129
00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:14.560
it's like bright blue skies and like maybe like a

130
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:19.360
one cloud and just a little shower went through. And

131
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:24.040
we're walking around back there and we get to a

132
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.040
part of the woods where it was kind of like

133
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:30.439
it was more of like a clearing, and there was

134
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:34.120
one tree that kind of stood out amongst the rest,

135
00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:37.320
and there weren't really a lot of trees around this tree,

136
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:42.559
and around the tree there was kind of sticks and

137
00:08:42.600 --> 00:08:46.960
stuff stacked up against the against that tree. And it

138
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:52.559
wasn't like anything crazy big like some of those stuff

139
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:57.120
that you would see on like Washington or Oregon. It

140
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:00.200
wasn't nearly as big as some of those things, some

141
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.039
of those structures that you see out there. It just

142
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:05.720
and it definitely wasn't like something could use it as

143
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:08.639
a shelter either, or even if it was a person

144
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:10.360
camping out there, it's not like you could use it

145
00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:10.960
as a shelter.

146
00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:16.919
It was more or less maybe like five to six

147
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:19.879
I wouldn't say.

148
00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:23.600
Logs, but like tree limbs kind of stacked up in

149
00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:29.519
ancestry and growing up, my dad and stuff we always

150
00:09:29.559 --> 00:09:32.120
used to watch all like the paranormal TV shows like

151
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.240
Monster Quest was a big one that we always used

152
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:39.200
to watch growing up. So I was familiar with what,

153
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:44.600
you know, what supposedly was a bigfoot. So I just

154
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.480
like I jokingly said to my cousin, I was like, look,

155
00:09:47.799 --> 00:09:50.759
it's a big foot structure, and pretty much as soon

156
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:55.279
as I said that, Pat, So if we're looking at

157
00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:59.519
the structure a little bit past where it's more dense vegetation,

158
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.679
it sounded like like I wouldn't say a tree fell down,

159
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:06.039
but it was more so like.

160
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:12.679
If you took like a like a foot long log

161
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:16.679
or a two foot long log and kind of just

162
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.759
like threw it in the brush. That's kind of what

163
00:10:19.799 --> 00:10:20.559
it sounded like.

164
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:23.879
So we kind of just like freeze, and we're kind

165
00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:26.440
of just you know, looking towards where the sound came,

166
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.720
and we're not really sure what to make of it.

167
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:34.600
So we're just you know, we're at this point, we're

168
00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:37.679
not really super spoof. We kind of just figured it

169
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.360
was an animal or something that took off in the brush.

170
00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:46.559
So we're just looking around like this structure, and I

171
00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:51.679
do remember seeing that there was like old kind of

172
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:54.720
like charred wood there, but it wasn't a lot to

173
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:56.639
where like it was like someone had like a big

174
00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:03.320
tan fire there, and that wasn't reason. It seemed fairly old.

175
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:06.840
So we kind of thought that was strange, especially because

176
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.759
it's not like people camp out there. I'm not sure

177
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:14.600
if people can camp out there like I said, it

178
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:20.480
was public DNR and it's for fishing and hunting and people.

179
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:26.039
I mean, I've I've taken hikes out there, but never

180
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:28.960
I've never all my years of being out there, I've

181
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:32.080
never seen someone camping out there. So I thought that

182
00:11:32.200 --> 00:11:35.919
was strange. And like I said, we're kind of just

183
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:39.480
snooping around the area seeing what's up, because I mean,

184
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:41.720
it was just an unusual thing to see and not

185
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:44.919
something you usually see in the woods.

186
00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:46.120
So we're looking.

187
00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:49.759
Around, and then kind of from the direction that we

188
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:52.360
came in, we kind of hear a similar sound to

189
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:54.519
like something.

190
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:55.600
Like getting thrown into the brush.

191
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.799
So like one time, you know it could be just

192
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:04.639
and an animal going through two times in a short

193
00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:09.279
span makes you kind of think that you know something's

194
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:14.240
still around you, especially because most animals, if they get

195
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:17.639
into contact with a human, will take off, especially deer

196
00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:21.919
and stuff, And if you get in close proximity to

197
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.840
a bear, it's gonna make itself known somewhere or another.

198
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:30.679
So now we're kind of just like wondering what's around us.

199
00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:34.519
So we're just we look back to the direction that

200
00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:37.639
the noise was coming from from where we came in from,

201
00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:41.720
and then we look that direction, and then like the

202
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.559
complete opposite direction, either to the left or right of us,

203
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:48.799
we hear that noise again, so we turn and look

204
00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:51.799
that way, and then from the direction we're not looking,

205
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.960
we hear It's basically like we were kind of like surrounded.

206
00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:01.080
And we're just here stuff going like all.

207
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:05.399
Around us, and we're looking back. It's the direction that

208
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:07.559
we're coming in. We start kind of like start backpeddling

209
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:12.679
to where we came in from, and we're not really

210
00:13:12.679 --> 00:13:16.559
sure what to make of it, but uh yeah, we

211
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:21.480
start back puddling, and then we kind of start running

212
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:25.000
because like the noises that we're hearing are getting louder

213
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:27.600
and closer to us, so we turn around. We just

214
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:30.480
start hauling it to like out of the woods. And

215
00:13:30.600 --> 00:13:37.320
as we're running out, we're kind of going downhill. In

216
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:40.120
the area, there's lots of ridges that get very very steep,

217
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.799
so it's pretty easy to lose your footing. So we're

218
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:49.240
running like diagonally down this hill. And from the direction

219
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:52.639
that all the the true structure and all those noises

220
00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:57.120
that we were hearing it around it sounded like, I mean,

221
00:13:57.159 --> 00:13:59.200
it sound like you let a bull loose out of

222
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:02.559
the pan and it's just like tearing after you. I mean,

223
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:05.799
I've never had an experience like that.

224
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:06.320
In the woods.

225
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:10.080
I've been bull hunting since I was like twelve or

226
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:14.960
thirteen years old, so been in the woods a long time,

227
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:17.279
do a lot of hunting and fishing, do a lot

228
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:18.399
of hiking and camping.

229
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:23.679
I've never had anything chase me out of the woods

230
00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:25.799
like that. And whatever it.

231
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:29.679
Was had to be of significant size, because I mean,

232
00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:34.320
you've hear stories about people that are getting like paralleled

233
00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:36.799
all of the woods. You can hear like whatever is

234
00:14:36.799 --> 00:14:39.639
coming through the wood, I mean, it's just anything that's

235
00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:42.240
in the way of getting you know, it's getting demolished.

236
00:14:42.240 --> 00:14:45.639
There's no stopping this thing once once it's coming after you.

237
00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:52.120
So we're hauling it down this hill and I don't remember.

238
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.080
I don't remember looking back. I think I remember what

239
00:14:56.519 --> 00:15:00.200
I looked back at least once. I don't remember seeing anything,

240
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.279
or if I did see something, I mean my mind

241
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.639
mentally blocked it out, but I don't remember seeing what

242
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:11.919
it was. And this thing, I mean, it's making so

243
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:13.480
much noise coming into this brush.

244
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.879
Big for society. Who would be right back after these messages.

245
00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:36.360
I mean, it's like I remember one time my dad

246
00:15:36.759 --> 00:15:40.720
he had an old Oliver tractor and it was one

247
00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:43.200
with a bucket on it, and like the brakes were

248
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:46.200
super shoddy on it. And one of the days he

249
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:50.480
was coming downhill with a tractor. We used like an

250
00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:53.360
old uh my nurse brudder, and we used to throw

251
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:56.360
logs in there, the cup firewood, we'd throw it in the.

252
00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:56.799
Back of there.

253
00:15:57.200 --> 00:15:59.159
And he's coming down this hill and like the brakes

254
00:15:59.159 --> 00:16:02.240
lose all control the tractor. I mean, that's what it

255
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:06.960
sounded like coming down the hill, and me and my

256
00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:08.120
cousin were just running.

257
00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:13.480
I mean. Eventually we get down to a more like

258
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:14.320
more of.

259
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.240
A clearing, but not really a clearing, just a spot

260
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.360
in the woods where you can have like a little

261
00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:28.320
more the eyesight and more range of seeing, excuse me.

262
00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:33.360
And we get there and we're like looking back to

263
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:36.240
like where we're hearing all this stuff coming down from,

264
00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:37.759
and we don't see anything.

265
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:44.000
So we get out of the woods as quick as

266
00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:44.600
quick as.

267
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:49.799
We can, and then we get back to where we

268
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.759
came in from. Which where we came in from there's

269
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:56.720
kind of like a little old cement bridge that the

270
00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:01.519
water from the Tomorrow River flows under. And there's a

271
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:04.559
couple like turnaround parking areas that you can park on,

272
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:08.319
and we're at the first turnaround. That's where we I

273
00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:11.599
can't remember if we drove bikes there or if we took.

274
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:12.400
Our flour wheelers.

275
00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:14.559
We used to do a lot of crazy stuff, so

276
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:19.039
we used to drive on our four wheelers. My one

277
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:22.359
cousin he has like a flatbed boat that lived on

278
00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:24.119
the smaller river, and we used to take that up

279
00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:26.880
the river, like when we were like twelve years old.

280
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:29.960
So we did a lot of stuff we probably shouldn't have,

281
00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:35.559
but that's where we ended up parking. And after you

282
00:17:35.640 --> 00:17:40.079
cross this bridge, it's it's more of a grassy field

283
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:44.319
with pine trees. And it's the pine trees that they

284
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:48.880
get so thick that like if you're in them, I

285
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:51.079
was like blocks out most of the sunlight, so it

286
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:54.480
gets pretty dark in there. So there's like areas of

287
00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:57.359
those pine trees mixing with like this field of grass.

288
00:17:58.119 --> 00:17:59.960
And most of the time the grass was probably like

289
00:18:02.279 --> 00:18:06.759
at that age, it was probably up to our waist,

290
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:09.920
so but normally, like now I'm six foot, it probably

291
00:18:09.920 --> 00:18:14.759
comes up to like your mid thigh. But that's where

292
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:17.400
we ran to out of the woods and.

293
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:20.880
We get out of there and I'm talking to my cousin.

294
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:23.680
I was like, I was like, what was that? I

295
00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:25.599
was like, what just happened to us in there? And

296
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.880
I believe I believe he's a year younger than me.

297
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:35.960
Because I graduated before him, so and then I think

298
00:18:35.960 --> 00:18:37.960
he graduated next year, so probably.

299
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:42.359
About a year or two. So I was older than him.

300
00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:44.920
And I never had an experience in the woods like that,

301
00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:49.279
And it was just one of the craziest encounters I've

302
00:18:49.279 --> 00:18:55.160
had in the woods. I mean, since that has happened,

303
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:58.240
I've never had an encounter in the woods or something's

304
00:18:58.319 --> 00:19:00.359
chased me out like that. And it was, I mean,

305
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:04.400
something was chasing us. I don't remember seeing what it was,

306
00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:08.799
but I mean it was just one of the most

307
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:13.200
crazy experiences I've had for any people out that I've

308
00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:15.720
had experience like that, you know, like the kind of

309
00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:19.680
fear that goes through you when you're an adult. So

310
00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:23.359
imagine being around ten, twelve years old and that happened

311
00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:27.480
to you. Do you have any questions about that encounter?

312
00:19:28.160 --> 00:19:33.160
Absolutely? That is a really intense time that you just shared,

313
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:37.160
and thank you for sharing that. How long did it

314
00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:42.039
take you guys to to calm down after you finally

315
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:43.440
got to a safe area.

316
00:19:46.279 --> 00:19:49.160
I don't remember what we did after that had happened.

317
00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:54.799
I remember going home and I immediately called my mom,

318
00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:58.720
and I want to say, by the time we got home,

319
00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:03.359
it was probably three or four o'clock because my dad

320
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:06.400
wasn't home yet, and my dad usually gets home around

321
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:08.799
like four thirty five, and at the time, my mom

322
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:13.519
worked till seven, I think, and I was more close

323
00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:16.279
with my mom. So immediately call my mom at work

324
00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:19.400
and I'm like hyper venting on the phone, like telling her.

325
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:21.759
What just happened. He was in the woods, and she's

326
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:23.160
trying to calm me down.

327
00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:28.920
And I mean, like to this day, like I said,

328
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:33.559
I'm a big hunter, I can't hunt over there. I've

329
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:35.480
tried to go out there and hunt at night or

330
00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:39.279
well for bow hunting, like the best time to be

331
00:20:39.319 --> 00:20:42.519
out there and where the most of the deer movement

332
00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:47.359
is like right before it starts getting dark. And my

333
00:20:47.480 --> 00:20:49.119
dad always told me, He's like, well, you got to

334
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:52.599
sit till it's dark and make sure that you know

335
00:20:52.680 --> 00:20:56.279
you're not spooking the deer out of the area. I

336
00:20:56.319 --> 00:20:58.519
can tell you right now, I don't do that. I

337
00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:02.480
can sit until it's dark enough to where I can't

338
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:07.519
you know, aim aim anymore. And as soon as that's happening,

339
00:21:07.519 --> 00:21:10.559
I'm out of the I'm getting out of the woods.

340
00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:14.720
Not to mention, have walk in the woods in the

341
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:16.759
morning when it's dark out to get.

342
00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:22.119
To the stand. I mean, I can't, Like it's very

343
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:22.839
hard for me to do.

344
00:21:23.640 --> 00:21:26.680
Luckily, I've convinced my fiance to come hunting with me now,

345
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:33.680
so I'm not as scared. But once you know that

346
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:39.079
there's something out there like that, it sticks with you.

347
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:45.279
Is this something that you and your cousins still discuss?

348
00:21:47.880 --> 00:21:51.720
So I've asked my cousin multiple times what he thinks

349
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:56.759
it was and if he remembers remembers it happening. He

350
00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:00.160
remembers it happening to this day, he just tells me

351
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:00.839
he doesn't.

352
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:01.160
Know what it was.

353
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:10.359
And you know, like I mean, I think he knows,

354
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:13.960
like in his mind probably what it was. Maybe he

355
00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:20.519
just doesn't want to admit it, but I've asked him to.

356
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:23.039
If he knows.

357
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:27.400
Because he knew the area more than I did. He

358
00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:31.480
was more more country, i'd say, than I was, so

359
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:34.920
he knew the area better than me, And I've asked

360
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:38.680
him multiple times if if he remembers where that spot was,

361
00:22:39.599 --> 00:22:41.960
and he doesn't remember where it was.

362
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:44.799
There's been logging out.

363
00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:48.279
There done, so I'm not sure if if it was

364
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:51.640
in an area where logging is taking place, because.

365
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:53.759
I mean, even when I was out.

366
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:58.119
There a few weeks ago, there was trees marked that

367
00:22:58.240 --> 00:22:59.599
were probably gonna get.

368
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:00.359
Taken and out.

369
00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:06.759
But I think, I mean, I want to say that

370
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:11.079
people have had experiences out there more than like maybe

371
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:14.000
I have, and that because I mean, like I said,

372
00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:19.160
I've seen people hunting out there, but it's usually fun

373
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:24.079
few in between some parts of the woods, I guess

374
00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:26.400
I get really swampy and it's super thick.

375
00:23:26.200 --> 00:23:26.519
And.

376
00:23:28.519 --> 00:23:30.279
I mean to get a beer out of those woods,

377
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.799
especially because DNR they don't let you like drive four

378
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:36.359
wheelers and stuff back there to get a deal. Like

379
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:38.559
if you do get a deer out there, it would

380
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:41.359
be it would be a pain to get it out.

381
00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:45.960
But yeah, I mean, I've talked to him before and

382
00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:48.759
he hasn't really given me any anything concrete to.

383
00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:52.599
What he thinks they could have been. He just tells

384
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:53.799
me he doesn't know what it was.

385
00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:06.079
So you kind, well, you kind of said something where well,

386
00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:09.960
I'll ask this, so you grew up in that area

387
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:14.319
and going to school where there ever any stories passed

388
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:16.920
around like don't go into that part of the woods,

389
00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:19.240
or be careful when you go over there, anything like

390
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:20.519
that you would hear growing up.

391
00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:25.680
I mean not really, I don't think. I mean most

392
00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:27.720
of the kids at my school, I don't think even

393
00:24:28.559 --> 00:24:31.480
really new of that area. I mean it's out in

394
00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:35.720
the country. And to get to school, it was probably

395
00:24:35.759 --> 00:24:38.640
like if I drove there, it's probably like ten to

396
00:24:38.680 --> 00:24:43.440
fifteen minute drive to get to school. And we lived

397
00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:47.039
out in the country. Like I said, it was there's

398
00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:50.599
a farm, old farmhouse where my dad grew up, and

399
00:24:51.960 --> 00:24:53.640
my parents tell us where they live now is like

400
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:56.640
probably a couple hundred feet down the road. And then

401
00:24:56.680 --> 00:25:00.359
my other cousin, he lives pretty much across the from

402
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:05.359
my parents' house. And then the other cousin, the third cousin.

403
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:10.960
Let's say, well, I'll say I'm the first cousin, he's

404
00:25:11.200 --> 00:25:13.799
my other cousin second, and then the third cousin lived

405
00:25:13.799 --> 00:25:16.559
by the Tomorrow River. So we always used to go

406
00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:19.319
over to the third cousin's house because he lived on

407
00:25:19.319 --> 00:25:19.960
the tomorrow River.

408
00:25:20.039 --> 00:25:20.759
So that's where we.

409
00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:24.039
Always used to do all like the fun stuff, and

410
00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:27.400
like his parents didn't really like watch us too much,

411
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:30.960
so we got away with doing stuff, some stuff we

412
00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:38.960
probably shouldn't have been doing. But no stories, no stories

413
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:43.160
growing up. Like I said, my dad has had encounters

414
00:25:43.160 --> 00:25:48.279
out there. I've taken my two two of my friends

415
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:51.000
that I graduated high school with. I took them out there.

416
00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:56.519
I think it was last year or two years ago,

417
00:25:57.319 --> 00:26:00.400
and it was in the winter, and we go out

418
00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:06.039
there and they're very skeptical. They're they don't they're atheists.

419
00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:06.400
I think.

420
00:26:06.559 --> 00:26:08.480
I don't think like they believe in God or anything.

421
00:26:09.319 --> 00:26:14.160
They're very scientific. They don't believe in anything really until

422
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:18.640
it's like proven by science. I took those two out there,

423
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:21.759
and you know, they used to hackle me, and I

424
00:26:21.799 --> 00:26:23.880
mean some of my other friends still do hackle me,

425
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:28.640
like believing in whatever this thing is. I mean, we

426
00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:32.119
really don't have like a great idea of what it's

427
00:26:32.200 --> 00:26:36.000
capable of. And you know, like until we have a body,

428
00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:38.920
it's like who's to say how much we really know

429
00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:44.480
about them? But I took them out there and they

430
00:26:44.519 --> 00:26:47.599
were kind of messing around and we were doing tree

431
00:26:47.640 --> 00:26:51.000
knots and stuff, and we weren't really getting any like

432
00:26:51.039 --> 00:26:54.559
responses or anything, so they were even giving me more trap.

433
00:26:56.400 --> 00:26:58.640
But I started doing like a whistle, kind of like

434
00:26:58.680 --> 00:27:02.519
a two tone whistle. I'm not really good at whistling.

435
00:27:02.559 --> 00:27:06.319
I can do it sometimes, but other times not so much.

436
00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:09.799
I can try to do it. It was something kind

437
00:27:09.799 --> 00:27:18.000
of like m because like something like that, but a

438
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:21.480
lot more drawn out, like so you could tell like

439
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:24.359
between the two tones. It was like one tone for

440
00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:28.839
a long time and then switching over to that higher tone.

441
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:32.279
And I did that, and I mean you always.

442
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:35.079
Hear stories of like don't whistle in the woods that

443
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:37.480
night and stuff like that, right, Like, I mean, I'm

444
00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:41.839
sure you've heard that from other people. We did that,

445
00:27:42.000 --> 00:27:47.400
and we had something howl at us.

446
00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:46.880
And it was.

447
00:27:48.480 --> 00:27:52.160
It was like we were talking about what we heard

448
00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:55.920
and it was almost like like a noise you would

449
00:27:55.960 --> 00:28:01.039
hear if you had your dog like locked out and

450
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:03.640
you weren't letting them in, and they're like they do

451
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:09.079
like there's mournful, like long long out howl. It was

452
00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:12.119
something like that. And as soon as we.

453
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:16.599
Heard that, they both look at me like.

454
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:17.440
Like I'm not so crazy anymore, like they had no

455
00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:22.240
idea where it was. Definitely wasn't an owl, and it

456
00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:28.039
definitely didn't sound it didn't sound canine. So I'm not

457
00:28:28.079 --> 00:28:31.160
really sure what to make of it, but we did

458
00:28:31.200 --> 00:28:35.400
have a response, somewhat of a response at least, and

459
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:39.680
it definitely wasn't like it wasn't a coyote growing up

460
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:42.319
out there. I mean we heard coyotes all the time

461
00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:45.160
out on my parents' house. It wasn't a coyote.

462
00:28:46.559 --> 00:28:47.680
Definitely wasn't an owl.

463
00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:52.279
So I mean, I'll leave the audience up to what

464
00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:57.759
they could think of that. And then I've also had

465
00:28:58.000 --> 00:29:03.039
two bfr OH investigators come out to the site because

466
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:06.160
I did submit my report to the Wisconsin like BFRRO

467
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:11.559
and I'm pretty good friends with the one guy and

468
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:14.160
the other guy that he came out with. I'm not

469
00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:16.119
in once, but he seemed like a really nice guy

470
00:29:17.079 --> 00:29:21.559
and we've been out there a few times. One time

471
00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:25.480
we just went out there like hiking during the day to.

472
00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:25.640
Get him.

473
00:29:27.160 --> 00:29:30.680
Kind of like a better view of the place since

474
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:32.440
it was the first time of him coming out there.

475
00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:37.960
And the one structure it was kind of like a

476
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:44.880
broken I'm not sure what tree it was, but I'm

477
00:29:44.920 --> 00:29:47.319
not sure what kind of tree it was, but you

478
00:29:47.319 --> 00:29:49.920
can tell it's very strange and it looks like the

479
00:29:49.960 --> 00:29:53.960
limbs are kind of like snapped off of it and

480
00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:58.279
the top of snapped off, and I mean like that.

481
00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:01.200
We were just walking like I had never seen that

482
00:30:01.359 --> 00:30:04.559
before with him. We were just walking on the area

483
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:06.759
and I was telling him like, I mean, you see

484
00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:10.160
weird structures in the area, and I hadn't seen that

485
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:14.200
one before, and I pointed out to him, I was like,

486
00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:18.119
stuff like that, and then he took a few pictures

487
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:19.720
of it, and I took a few pictures of it,

488
00:30:20.640 --> 00:30:25.880
and that's one of the pictures. But one time me,

489
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:30.200
the two BFR me, two of the BFR oh guys,

490
00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:34.839
and my sister went out there. I believe it was

491
00:30:35.039 --> 00:30:39.599
the summer, maybe later string big.

492
00:30:39.519 --> 00:30:42.039
For society who would be right back after these messages.

493
00:30:58.319 --> 00:31:00.680
It was definitely warm enough because there was a lot

494
00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:04.440
of takes out and we were sitting on a tarp

495
00:31:05.559 --> 00:31:08.480
to try to get like not just so we're not

496
00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:11.599
sitting in the grass and with our uh like our

497
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:14.279
camping chairs and stuff, so that takes aren't crawling all

498
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:17.759
over us. And then we had like a few of

499
00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:20.799
the candles that get rid of, like miss supposed to

500
00:31:20.839 --> 00:31:24.480
get rid of mosquitos.

501
00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:26.519
And we're getting to know each.

502
00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:30.039
Other better, just talking to each other, asking each other

503
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:33.839
like what you know, like what got you into doing.

504
00:31:33.640 --> 00:31:35.759
Like bigfoot research stuff like that.

505
00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:40.839
And we stayed out there probably till midnight and around

506
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:47.559
eleven thirty, very close to us. You can kind of

507
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:54.119
hear like huffing. I guess you would call it huffing.

508
00:31:54.200 --> 00:31:59.440
It was something along the lines like it was making

509
00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:06.839
noises like that. And going back to a previous time

510
00:32:08.039 --> 00:32:10.039
when just me and my sister and my brother went

511
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:13.240
out there, we didn't have any activity. But as soon

512
00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:17.160
as we were going across this concrete bridge, the concrete

513
00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:20.599
bridge I told you about in my encounter when when

514
00:32:20.599 --> 00:32:23.200
I was a kid, we're leaving the area.

515
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:26.799
It was nighttime, we're leaving, and we were.

516
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:29.000
Kind of just like saying like we didn't have any activity,

517
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:31.440
so we're kind of just like, okay, we're leaving now,

518
00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:35.000
and we're like saying bye. As soon as we stepped

519
00:32:35.640 --> 00:32:39.319
from the concrete back onto like the trail that leads

520
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:42.359
to the main road, as soon as we hear or

521
00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:45.279
as soon as we step across that boundary, we hear

522
00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:51.119
one solid tree knock, probably within like forty fifty yards almost,

523
00:32:51.319 --> 00:32:55.359
And going back to the story, was just saying, this

524
00:32:55.519 --> 00:32:57.519
is the same area where we're hearing like this huffing

525
00:32:58.640 --> 00:33:02.160
and it's faine, but you can like hear It's like

526
00:33:02.160 --> 00:33:07.279
oh oh oh, And like I kind of like we're

527
00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:10.200
me and the BFR guys like my sister were all

528
00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:13.799
chatting and I kind of like shoshed them. I was like,

529
00:33:13.839 --> 00:33:17.119
do you guys hear that? And we're hearing this huffing noise.

530
00:33:18.039 --> 00:33:21.920
So then we're just sitting there quietly like listening towards surroundings,

531
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:29.640
and we hear this scream. It literally the best way

532
00:33:29.680 --> 00:33:33.599
I can describe it, if you hear a if you've

533
00:33:33.599 --> 00:33:36.880
heard of like barn owls, they do like a scream

534
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:40.759
screech type thing, if you ever heard anything like that.

535
00:33:42.359 --> 00:33:46.000
It was like that mixed with like a woman being murdered,

536
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:50.000
and it was it was within one hundred yards agos

537
00:33:50.640 --> 00:33:54.039
and the noise came from I had my back facing

538
00:33:54.079 --> 00:33:59.279
towards it along with one of the BAHARE members, and

539
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:03.240
I mean we're we were kind of like talking and

540
00:34:03.319 --> 00:34:06.440
chitch heading back and forth as soon as we hear

541
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:09.079
this screen, I mean you could.

542
00:34:08.880 --> 00:34:11.360
Hear a pin drop, so that it got that quiet.

543
00:34:11.360 --> 00:34:15.719
After that, I'm just like getting a little bit of shaky,

544
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.880
just like reliving that, because I mean it was literally

545
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:22.239
like if you like if like a woman was being

546
00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:26.599
like stabbed, I mean, and it was loud. I mean,

547
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:29.960
it was one of them. Like it was one of

548
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:32.920
the most probably frightful things that ever had happened in

549
00:34:32.920 --> 00:34:36.440
the woods, especially considering that it was, you know, getting

550
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:42.400
close to midnight, and there was no other cars uh

551
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:44.960
where we had parked, and there was no other vehicles

552
00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:47.920
down at the other turnaround either. There are a few

553
00:34:47.920 --> 00:34:53.760
houses scattered along the dead ms dead end road, but

554
00:34:54.280 --> 00:34:56.880
from where we heard this come from, I mean, it's

555
00:34:56.920 --> 00:35:02.480
all woods. There's no houses on the side, uh that

556
00:35:02.960 --> 00:35:07.360
we heard the scheme from. If you if you're going

557
00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:09.480
towards that noise that you heard, I mean, it's just

558
00:35:09.639 --> 00:35:13.440
more woods and then I mean eventually you probably get

559
00:35:13.480 --> 00:35:17.519
to an agriculture field and then maybe some houses pass

560
00:35:17.559 --> 00:35:21.320
those egg fields. But I sent you kind of like

561
00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:25.320
a Google Earth picture of the area just to show

562
00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:28.679
you how much how much woods was there. You can

563
00:35:28.719 --> 00:35:31.159
include that too. If if you want to on the

564
00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:35.880
video just to give the audience like a better better

565
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:43.119
view of the place, I would say. But yeah, shortly

566
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:46.760
after that, probably within the hour, I think me and

567
00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:50.800
my sister ended up leaving on the bfr bf r

568
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:53.800
oh guys ended up leaving as well, mostly because, like

569
00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:57.840
it was getting late, Me and my sister were getting

570
00:35:57.840 --> 00:36:02.360
pretty tired at that point, and I think I had

571
00:36:02.360 --> 00:36:03.639
something to do the next morning.

572
00:36:03.960 --> 00:36:05.960
I can't remember exactly what it was, but.

573
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:09.679
I had plans the next morning, so I had to

574
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:12.079
wake up somewhat early and didn't want to be out

575
00:36:12.239 --> 00:36:19.400
to like four am. And yeah, I mean I could

576
00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:24.000
have those b off R guys vouch for me that, like,

577
00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:26.559
I was like the only one I was like, and

578
00:36:26.719 --> 00:36:29.480
I was like, maybe it was like some sort of

579
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:32.440
owl screech, and they both looked at me like I

580
00:36:32.559 --> 00:36:35.880
was crazy. They're like, I've never heard an owl like.

581
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:36.559
That in the woods.

582
00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:41.679
And these are older gentlemen. They're retired, so they have

583
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:43.840
a lot more free time to be in the woods

584
00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:46.360
than I do right now, you know, with I work

585
00:36:46.440 --> 00:36:49.679
full time, so I'm not in the woods as much

586
00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:52.000
as I was when I was a kid, but I

587
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:55.079
still try to do a lot of boat hunting, and

588
00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:58.599
you know my dad, that's how my dad raised this

589
00:36:58.960 --> 00:37:02.280
was like we always used to do stuff out in

590
00:37:02.280 --> 00:37:06.880
the woods my dad. My dad bails. Hey, he cuts woods.

591
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:09.000
So that's what we grew up doing with them all

592
00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:14.840
the time. Uh, there's just I mean that area is

593
00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:20.960
just an epicenter for strange, strange goings. Do you have

594
00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:23.000
any questions with that?

595
00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:27.719
Yeah? So are are those two investigators still looking into

596
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:32.280
this area or what was their their final verdict on

597
00:37:32.280 --> 00:37:33.239
on what you Yeah?

598
00:37:33.280 --> 00:37:38.199
They so usually when they come out, they usually asked me.

599
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:43.920
So the one dude or the first guy that like,

600
00:37:44.679 --> 00:37:46.880
he's the one that read my story that I submitted.

601
00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:50.519
So he did, like we had like an over the

602
00:37:50.599 --> 00:37:54.880
phone call talk about it, and then after that we

603
00:37:54.960 --> 00:37:59.239
had planned kind of like a day trip hike around

604
00:37:59.280 --> 00:38:02.320
the area, which I told you about.

605
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:03.239
And then.

606
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:09.840
I think he's been back there one time alone with

607
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:12.199
well not alone but with the other BUFRO guy. I

608
00:38:12.239 --> 00:38:16.840
couldn't make it that day. Let me have the encounter

609
00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:19.280
with me and my sister and the two b f

610
00:38:19.320 --> 00:38:24.760
r O gentlemen, and we're looking to plan another go

611
00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:29.559
like another outing there. I'm gonna see if he if

612
00:38:29.559 --> 00:38:32.400
he wants to come out again once it starts getting

613
00:38:32.400 --> 00:38:39.360
a little bit warmer out So maybe maybe in like

614
00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:43.559
in May or June. I think that's kind of I

615
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:46.159
think in the summer is when most of the activity

616
00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:46.760
is ongoing.

617
00:38:48.199 --> 00:38:53.039
Uh. And the reason I say that is because my dad, well,

618
00:38:53.400 --> 00:38:54.079
so one of the.

619
00:38:54.079 --> 00:38:56.400
Like there's plenty of food sources for that area. Like

620
00:38:56.400 --> 00:39:03.880
I said, there's fish, plenty of game, you know, like rabbit, squirrels, deer, turkeys,

621
00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:08.719
all sorts of stuff. But there's also a really good

622
00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:15.760
patch there for BlackBerry picking. And my dad, he jokingly

623
00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:20.719
calls it squatches patch. And he's been out there a

624
00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:26.480
few times where he's had some strange stuff going on.

625
00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:29.239
One of the one of the things that he's had

626
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:33.719
happened to him out there was I'll say this, my

627
00:39:33.800 --> 00:39:36.519
dad's not like, he's a no nonsense kind of guy,

628
00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:41.599
and he he believes that this is you know, it exists.

629
00:39:41.639 --> 00:39:44.840
Like I said, they had that encounter the road crossing.

630
00:39:46.840 --> 00:39:48.719
But he's a lot more brave than I am. Let's

631
00:39:48.760 --> 00:39:52.440
just put it that way. He you know, he's like

632
00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:57.239
in this he's in this big BlackBerry patch and he's

633
00:39:57.239 --> 00:39:59.079
not afraid to get like scratched up by it. So

634
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:03.400
he's pretty deep in this patch and he said, all

635
00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:07.000
of a sudden, he said, it just stunk like the

636
00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:10.840
worst smell you can imagine. And he's just, you know,

637
00:40:11.000 --> 00:40:14.119
like nonchalant, like he's picking berries.

638
00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:16.519
Like and he smells us and.

639
00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:18.159
He doesn't really make a big deal out of it.

640
00:40:19.280 --> 00:40:21.480
So he's just he's still in the area picking berries,

641
00:40:21.519 --> 00:40:25.800
and he says that like there's like he just hears

642
00:40:25.920 --> 00:40:31.400
something enormous like tearing through the BlackBerry bushes away from him, so,

643
00:40:31.599 --> 00:40:35.559
you know, potentially a bear. But the way he made

644
00:40:35.559 --> 00:40:39.400
it sound like you know it, you know, he just

645
00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:43.440
told me that it wasn't normally encounter you.

646
00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:44.199
Would have in the woods.

647
00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:48.599
I mean, he said, you guys, is just like horrendous smell.

648
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:52.039
He didn't explain this smell to me of like what

649
00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:54.559
it smelled like. He just said that it's stunk like

650
00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:59.880
the worst smell you can think of. And he says,

651
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:04.760
some thing just tears off out of these bushes. And

652
00:41:05.159 --> 00:41:08.079
I mean, he didn't like really tell me like what

653
00:41:08.119 --> 00:41:11.239
he did after that. I think he just stayed in

654
00:41:11.280 --> 00:41:17.400
the area picking blackberries until you have like a bucket fall.

655
00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:20.360
Because he always picks like a bucket fall each time

656
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:22.559
he goes out to try to try to.

657
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:25.159
Usually get enough to make like a bye or something.

658
00:41:27.800 --> 00:41:33.320
But yeah, he's a lot more brave than I am.

659
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:37.559
It sounds like such an interesting area for sure. Are

660
00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:42.119
there any things that happen in that area that are

661
00:41:42.119 --> 00:41:45.159
weird but maybe not necessarily bigfoot related?

662
00:41:50.239 --> 00:41:53.119
I mean, my dad's done, like he goes in the area,

663
00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:56.920
like I said, to pick berries, and when he's been

664
00:41:57.039 --> 00:42:03.079
back there, he's had like trees fall back, like fall over,

665
00:42:03.719 --> 00:42:07.400
So I mean, I guess that's like normal, but it's

666
00:42:07.480 --> 00:42:12.679
like how often does a tree come down, you know,

667
00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:15.960
for the person to hear it right, And most of

668
00:42:15.960 --> 00:42:18.760
the times when he's out there, it's usually calm conditions,

669
00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:23.079
you know, it's not super windy. So I guess that's

670
00:42:23.159 --> 00:42:25.960
kind of an oddity that has happened where. I guess

671
00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:30.840
you could say that's bigfoot behavior or you can say

672
00:42:30.880 --> 00:42:38.199
it's just normal too, not at this area. But like

673
00:42:38.239 --> 00:42:41.400
I said, my there's the farmhouse that's a couple of

674
00:42:41.400 --> 00:42:44.159
miles away, and the I'm pretty close that's when my

675
00:42:44.239 --> 00:42:48.480
parents' house is. And there's one spot that we call

676
00:42:48.679 --> 00:42:54.000
the marsh because it's all like swampy grass and well,

677
00:42:54.639 --> 00:42:58.400
like the outskirts of a swampy grass like kind of

678
00:42:58.519 --> 00:43:04.639
stuff like that. Then there's a small pond, well two

679
00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:10.039
small ponds, one on each side of the property. And

680
00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:17.280
then we have agriculture fields two well, yeah, two agriculture fields.

681
00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:20.800
One that's pretty big that we bail hay off of

682
00:43:22.719 --> 00:43:26.440
and then one next to that's nowhere near as big

683
00:43:26.880 --> 00:43:28.480
that we usually bail hay off of.

684
00:43:28.519 --> 00:43:28.840
Two.

685
00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:32.360
I think this year we might be planting corn there,

686
00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:38.920
but I'm not sure. But getting back to the story,

687
00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:43.840
my brother when he was in his teens, him then

688
00:43:44.440 --> 00:43:47.960
one of his friends from high school. Uh, they were

689
00:43:48.360 --> 00:43:50.719
big country boys. I mean, it's a pretty common theme

690
00:43:50.760 --> 00:43:54.679
for the area. But they were picking nightcrawlers that night

691
00:43:56.000 --> 00:44:00.960
and it was raining. So when it rains, all the

692
00:44:01.039 --> 00:44:03.760
nightcrawlers and stuff come out of the ground. They're crawling

693
00:44:03.760 --> 00:44:07.360
all over the roads and stuff. So they're out in

694
00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:12.239
the marsh, and we have a pathway that leads to

695
00:44:12.440 --> 00:44:16.039
all the agriculture fields and stuff. So they're like following

696
00:44:16.079 --> 00:44:18.880
this path and the path kind of is an L shape.

697
00:44:19.559 --> 00:44:23.719
It goes straight and then to the east and then

698
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:26.599
to the east is where like the little but one

699
00:44:26.679 --> 00:44:31.039
pond is to the west is where the other pondas.

700
00:44:31.960 --> 00:44:35.039
So they're picking nightcrawlers along like this little dirt.

701
00:44:34.800 --> 00:44:41.000
Path that we have, and you know, it's raining a

702
00:44:41.000 --> 00:44:45.079
little bit of drizzle this and that, and they have

703
00:44:45.199 --> 00:44:47.559
flash lights where I don't I think it was the

704
00:44:47.719 --> 00:44:52.320
headlamps actually, because they're using their hands to pick the nightcrawlers,

705
00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:54.360
I think they had headlamps.

706
00:44:55.800 --> 00:44:59.320
And they they ended up seeing.

707
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:03.960
Like red glowing eyes in the marsh kind of like

708
00:45:03.960 --> 00:45:05.239
by where the pond was.

709
00:45:06.840 --> 00:45:25.800
Big for society who will be right back after these messages, and.

710
00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:28.559
They said that the eyes started off low and they're

711
00:45:28.599 --> 00:45:30.159
just looking at it like all they see is the

712
00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:31.079
eye shine.

713
00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:31.360
Right Like.

714
00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:36.960
I mean, headlamps don't really make you know, they don't

715
00:45:37.000 --> 00:45:39.599
have much range to them, but they can make it

716
00:45:39.800 --> 00:45:45.920
like these red glowing eyes, but probably like at the

717
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:50.119
top of the swamp grass and they're looking at it

718
00:45:50.199 --> 00:45:52.719
like because I mean, how often do you see.

719
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:56.599
Red glowing eyes, especially at night? You know, I'm not

720
00:45:56.639 --> 00:45:58.119
sure if any animals.

721
00:45:57.679 --> 00:46:02.000
That have like a red glow to their eye, I'm

722
00:46:02.039 --> 00:46:06.960
not sure, but they're looking at it and these like

723
00:46:07.639 --> 00:46:08.480
the eyes.

724
00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:13.800
Slowly like rise up from like the top of their grass,

725
00:46:14.519 --> 00:46:16.719
and they they bailed out of there.

726
00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:19.960
As fast as they could back back to Uh. I'm

727
00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:22.440
not sure if they had a vehicle, like I said,

728
00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.199
all the like, Like I said, the properties are pretty

729
00:46:25.199 --> 00:46:28.119
close to where my parents houses, and that's where my

730
00:46:28.159 --> 00:46:29.159
brother was living at the time.

731
00:46:29.199 --> 00:46:30.239
He used to a teenager.

732
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:32.920
So I'm not sure if they just walked down the

733
00:46:33.000 --> 00:46:34.960
road and were picking night clors and then they got

734
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:38.159
to the marsh, or if they just you know, haul

735
00:46:38.239 --> 00:46:39.199
out of there with.

736
00:46:39.280 --> 00:46:40.280
A car or whatnot.

737
00:46:40.360 --> 00:46:45.880
But that's I mean, this is all within you know,

738
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:52.840
five miles five miles of everything, which is why I

739
00:46:52.880 --> 00:47:00.199
think that I think that they'd been close to my

740
00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:05.440
parents' house before, you know, I, like I said, I

741
00:47:05.440 --> 00:47:08.159
had that encounter. When I was a kid, I used

742
00:47:08.199 --> 00:47:11.039
to have nightmares. I used to sleep in the basement.

743
00:47:12.440 --> 00:47:15.199
We have like a little like kind of like one

744
00:47:15.199 --> 00:47:17.239
of those little basement windows that you can look out of.

745
00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:20.880
I used to have nightmares of like a sasquatch like

746
00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:24.719
looking in because my bed at the back post would

747
00:47:24.760 --> 00:47:27.400
go like right up to like the window above it.

748
00:47:28.119 --> 00:47:30.280
I used to have nightmares all the time of like

749
00:47:30.599 --> 00:47:34.559
a sasquatter looking in and I'm pretty sure that had

750
00:47:34.559 --> 00:47:40.599
to do with the encounter from when I was a kid, so.

751
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:42.440
He's had experiences out there.

752
00:47:44.159 --> 00:47:47.840
One time when my mom, I think she woke up

753
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:50.960
around like two or three in the morning and she

754
00:47:51.239 --> 00:47:54.360
had to left the dogs out. And we live on

755
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:58.400
the country, but they're a pretty decent sized yard where

756
00:47:58.440 --> 00:48:00.400
the dogs can do their business and stuff and they

757
00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:02.719
know not to take off out of the.

758
00:48:02.760 --> 00:48:03.559
Yard or anything.

759
00:48:05.440 --> 00:48:09.559
And she lets the dog out, and she's like she

760
00:48:09.639 --> 00:48:12.199
usually stands out there just to make sure that like

761
00:48:13.599 --> 00:48:16.039
nothing happens to the dog or you know.

762
00:48:16.199 --> 00:48:17.639
God forbid it did take off.

763
00:48:18.199 --> 00:48:20.360
She usually stands out there and like waits for him

764
00:48:20.400 --> 00:48:23.800
to come back and then goes back to bed. But

765
00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:28.480
she said from the direction of the marsh, she said

766
00:48:28.519 --> 00:48:32.400
that she heard like one really long, like long drawn

767
00:48:32.440 --> 00:48:37.719
out like sorry, my voice kind of messed up there,

768
00:48:37.719 --> 00:48:42.800
but more or less a whoop come from the marsh.

769
00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:47.679
And that was that must have happened within two years.

770
00:48:50.079 --> 00:48:54.159
And I think I like sometimes I'm.

771
00:48:54.000 --> 00:48:56.360
A little like nervous to go out there at night.

772
00:48:57.159 --> 00:48:59.360
It's not like usually if my when my sister doesn't

773
00:48:59.400 --> 00:49:04.719
live in the area anymore, but usually if she's in town.

774
00:49:04.760 --> 00:49:06.880
I try to have her come out there with me.

775
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:13.519
But I feel like I feel like these things maybe

776
00:49:13.519 --> 00:49:16.639
like once you have like an encounter with them, you

777
00:49:17.239 --> 00:49:20.639
have more of a chance than like the average person

778
00:49:20.800 --> 00:49:23.599
to have an encounter, if that makes sense. I mean

779
00:49:23.679 --> 00:49:29.079
I've heard people say like I've heard people say like that,

780
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:33.280
you know, people that like have have had already an encounter.

781
00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:38.599
Maybe they're like they can like tell somehow like they're

782
00:49:38.679 --> 00:49:41.960
like marked or something, which is like a little woo

783
00:49:42.119 --> 00:49:45.360
for some people out there. But I mean who knows, right,

784
00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:50.239
I mean, anything is really possible in this world. So

785
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:52.440
until it's proven, it's like who's.

786
00:49:52.199 --> 00:49:53.679
To say, Yeah, I don't.

787
00:49:53.719 --> 00:49:57.480
I don't think anything should be discounted if it's See,

788
00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:00.800
here's the thing with the weird stuff. It's happening to

789
00:50:00.840 --> 00:50:05.199
a lot of people, right, and I think we're doing

790
00:50:05.199 --> 00:50:10.360
ourselves a disservice if we're discounting things that people are reporting,

791
00:50:10.559 --> 00:50:14.400
you know what I mean. Right, even if it even

792
00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:19.239
if it feels weird or it's not normal, Well it's

793
00:50:19.280 --> 00:50:22.280
just not normal because you don't get it yet or

794
00:50:22.639 --> 00:50:26.519
science doesn't understand it yet. But twenty years down the road, right,

795
00:50:26.559 --> 00:50:31.880
maybe we will You know. Yeah.

796
00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:34.280
I mean, like like I said, there's been I mean,

797
00:50:34.320 --> 00:50:38.000
there's been so much strange stuff, let has happened in

798
00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:42.079
that area, and I'm sure as I get older, you know,

799
00:50:42.119 --> 00:50:44.880
I continue to go out there. I've tried, so I've

800
00:50:44.920 --> 00:50:48.960
tried going out there by myself, and like I can

801
00:50:49.000 --> 00:50:52.960
walk around in like that field and stuff. But even

802
00:50:53.039 --> 00:50:56.440
walking around in like that field that's like right over

803
00:50:56.440 --> 00:51:01.119
that kind of cree ridge, I just feel comfortable. I mean,

804
00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:06.119
I I mean we've been out there a few times,

805
00:51:06.199 --> 00:51:09.159
like either me, my brother, my sister, or me and

806
00:51:09.199 --> 00:51:12.400
my sister, and I mean, like you expect to hear

807
00:51:13.039 --> 00:51:16.920
animals and stuff out there, right, I mean there's like

808
00:51:16.960 --> 00:51:21.880
sometimes when we go out there, it is, like I say,

809
00:51:21.960 --> 00:51:23.280
like it's definitely quite like.

810
00:51:24.079 --> 00:51:26.559
It's so quiet that it's like a ringing in your

811
00:51:26.599 --> 00:51:27.400
ears almost.

812
00:51:28.159 --> 00:51:29.920
It's just like one of the it's one of the

813
00:51:29.960 --> 00:51:39.360
most just weird areas that I've been on. And getting

814
00:51:39.400 --> 00:51:43.519
back to why I think that they've been near like

815
00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:48.679
my parents' property. You know, I've told you about the

816
00:51:48.679 --> 00:51:50.760
the whoops that my parents or my mom had heard

817
00:51:53.199 --> 00:51:57.440
one time when I was bow hunting. It was shortly

818
00:51:57.519 --> 00:52:01.320
after that, you know, we had gone out. I mean,

819
00:52:01.360 --> 00:52:06.440
we had gone out squashing, and I mean we've like

820
00:52:07.159 --> 00:52:10.920
we've heard stuff, but sometimes it's so far off that

821
00:52:11.360 --> 00:52:14.199
you can't tell what it is. But I mean it's

822
00:52:14.199 --> 00:52:19.880
some sort of vocalization, and you know, I should probably

823
00:52:19.880 --> 00:52:23.039
invest in like some recording equipment, so like when we

824
00:52:23.079 --> 00:52:27.840
do go out there, I actually have the proof, the

825
00:52:27.880 --> 00:52:29.880
proof and the pudding, I guess to put it that way,

826
00:52:31.039 --> 00:52:33.840
so I can like have more evidence to show for it.

827
00:52:34.000 --> 00:52:38.360
But I haven't really got the money to, you know,

828
00:52:38.440 --> 00:52:40.280
to invest in a lot of stuff at the moment.

829
00:52:43.000 --> 00:52:46.159
But yeah, we've, uh, we had gone squashing out there,

830
00:52:46.199 --> 00:52:50.800
and I think like one of the next few days,

831
00:52:52.079 --> 00:52:56.199
I had gone bohunting and my brother's wife had gone

832
00:52:56.239 --> 00:53:02.639
bow hunting too, and I was on like we usually

833
00:53:02.639 --> 00:53:06.440
go home behind my parents' house, and I was on

834
00:53:07.920 --> 00:53:13.360
kind of like the property line to the west, and

835
00:53:13.400 --> 00:53:16.320
then she was on like kind of the property line

836
00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:21.039
towards the east, and it's like just about you know,

837
00:53:21.519 --> 00:53:25.360
it's just about dark enough to where you can't really

838
00:53:25.480 --> 00:53:28.800
like you know, like it's shooting. You can't be shooting us,

839
00:53:28.960 --> 00:53:32.000
shooting animals, you know, like the shooting hours are done,

840
00:53:32.559 --> 00:53:35.280
so it's like about that time to leave and pack up.

841
00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:41.760
And you know, when I do this watching, I usually

842
00:53:41.800 --> 00:53:46.760
feel a little like weary in the woods. But like

843
00:53:46.840 --> 00:53:53.440
in between in between us, we heard like one one

844
00:53:53.559 --> 00:53:59.559
vocalization and it sounded like a howl. And my brother

845
00:53:59.719 --> 00:54:02.760
was My brother had set up traps because he was

846
00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:06.440
trying to trap I think kyote, and he had set

847
00:54:06.480 --> 00:54:09.000
up traps and it was just about dust. I'm like

848
00:54:09.079 --> 00:54:13.360
thinking like, oh maybe, and it was like one of

849
00:54:13.360 --> 00:54:17.000
those foot traps that you bury on the ground and like, uh,

850
00:54:17.119 --> 00:54:20.320
you put out bait and then the animal comes in

851
00:54:20.400 --> 00:54:23.840
and like once it steps on the the pressure plate,

852
00:54:23.960 --> 00:54:26.079
it clamps down on their foot and holds them there

853
00:54:26.960 --> 00:54:30.440
until you know, the person comes out there to get

854
00:54:30.519 --> 00:54:33.639
rid of them. It was one of those traps. So

855
00:54:33.679 --> 00:54:37.559
I'm thinking like, oh, maybe, you know, maybe a kyote

856
00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:39.920
steps in one of these traps. So I told him

857
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:42.079
about it. I was like, we heard this weird howl,

858
00:54:42.159 --> 00:54:44.840
but I coudn't really tell what it was. I was like,

859
00:54:44.880 --> 00:54:47.000
maybe you got something in your trap. There was nothing

860
00:54:47.039 --> 00:54:50.079
in the trap, and no, none of the bait was missing.

861
00:54:52.760 --> 00:54:55.880
So that was like one kind of strange encounter that

862
00:54:55.920 --> 00:54:58.599
I had and like I said, my brother's wife was

863
00:54:58.639 --> 00:55:00.159
also boat hunting out there.

864
00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:02.519
And she heard it and she was like, A, you

865
00:55:02.599 --> 00:55:05.239
know that I heard that. She's like, I started walking

866
00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:11.199
a little bit faster to get out of the woods.

867
00:55:11.599 --> 00:55:14.239
And that was like probably a day or two after

868
00:55:14.280 --> 00:55:19.079
I had gone out squatching. And I usually, you know,

869
00:55:19.119 --> 00:55:23.559
if I'm out there, I usually say something like like

870
00:55:23.599 --> 00:55:28.119
if we're intruding or something, you know, if we're intruding

871
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:31.280
too close to you, just let it be known or something,

872
00:55:33.199 --> 00:55:36.719
you know, And maybe maybe that was maybe that was that,

873
00:55:36.840 --> 00:55:40.440
but you know, I mean, you could also.

874
00:55:40.280 --> 00:55:41.159
Just be coincidence.

875
00:55:41.239 --> 00:55:43.960
But you know, it's it's just one of those things

876
00:55:43.960 --> 00:55:47.199
where so much strange stuff has happened over the years

877
00:55:47.239 --> 00:55:49.679
that you kind of just put in a category of

878
00:55:49.719 --> 00:55:50.079
its own.

879
00:55:51.920 --> 00:55:55.239
Does it feel like there's ever any sort of communication

880
00:55:55.400 --> 00:56:01.639
that happens between you and your relatives and whatever is

881
00:56:01.800 --> 00:56:04.880
out in the woods.

882
00:56:06.880 --> 00:56:09.280
It's hard to say like communication because.

883
00:56:10.599 --> 00:56:14.519
Like I haven't heard like sometimes you know, people talk

884
00:56:14.519 --> 00:56:19.079
about like the samurai chatter. I was thinking about potentially

885
00:56:19.119 --> 00:56:23.519
doing like a gifting site out there, but I've also

886
00:56:23.599 --> 00:56:27.280
heard stories like to be pretty wary of it, especially

887
00:56:27.280 --> 00:56:31.920
if like you can't keep up with the gifting. And

888
00:56:33.079 --> 00:56:35.880
I live about like forty five minutes now away from

889
00:56:35.880 --> 00:56:40.360
my parents, so I don't want to like upset whatever's

890
00:56:40.400 --> 00:56:45.559
out there, you know. But if I do grow out

891
00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:49.039
there this watching, I usually try to like go out

892
00:56:49.079 --> 00:56:51.639
there with like a good spirit, good energy, and like

893
00:56:52.800 --> 00:56:55.679
even if it's just like talking like to myself in

894
00:56:55.679 --> 00:56:59.039
my head, like you know, we're out here, we're just

895
00:56:59.079 --> 00:57:02.239
trying to see what's really going on in the woods here,

896
00:57:03.039 --> 00:57:06.719
and you know we don't We're not trying to come

897
00:57:06.760 --> 00:57:08.840
out here and like harass you or like cause any

898
00:57:08.880 --> 00:57:15.000
harm to you. And like I said, like I feel

899
00:57:15.000 --> 00:57:17.480
like if you do have an experience, you're more than

900
00:57:17.679 --> 00:57:23.199
likely gonna have another experience over someone that hasn't had

901
00:57:23.199 --> 00:57:26.880
any experience before like that in the woods. And maybe

902
00:57:26.920 --> 00:57:32.199
because maybe you know it's like that, because when you

903
00:57:32.280 --> 00:57:36.880
have an experience, you know that stuff exists out there.

904
00:57:37.519 --> 00:57:39.639
So what's to say, Like.

905
00:57:39.679 --> 00:57:42.760
You hear stories of like dog Man and you know

906
00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:47.280
Wisconsin the Bray Road, that's like, well, so I should

907
00:57:47.400 --> 00:57:50.119
say that's one story I heard growing up, was the

908
00:57:50.159 --> 00:57:53.039
Beast of Bray Road. I'm not sure if you're familiar

909
00:57:53.119 --> 00:57:58.280
with that. I assume you probably would be. Yeah. So

910
00:57:58.320 --> 00:58:02.639
it's like once you know that there's stuff that like

911
00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:07.480
hasn't known the science or shouldn't exist, right, it's like

912
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:11.679
you have that open mindedness to be like what else

913
00:58:12.039 --> 00:58:15.599
could be out there? I mean you know even now,

914
00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:21.119
like the government is like talking about UFOs and stuff

915
00:58:21.199 --> 00:58:25.519
and like you know, like UFOs like exist. I mean,

916
00:58:26.599 --> 00:58:29.480
you know, they've had like all these different scientific projects

917
00:58:29.840 --> 00:58:32.039
in the government over the years, like trying to study

918
00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:35.480
these things. And I mean like there's so much different

919
00:58:35.519 --> 00:58:38.320
stuff out in the world too, Like who's to say

920
00:58:38.400 --> 00:58:40.440
what what's really out there?

921
00:58:40.480 --> 00:58:40.679
You know?

922
00:58:43.840 --> 00:58:49.280
Yeah, it's you know, that's a conversation I've had internally

923
00:58:49.920 --> 00:58:54.360
and sometimes out loud on the show where you look

924
00:58:54.400 --> 00:58:57.800
at all these reports and even things I've experienced myself

925
00:58:57.840 --> 00:59:00.400
where it's like, you know, you experience something else there,

926
00:59:01.280 --> 00:59:03.639
and then is it the way I look at it,

927
00:59:03.719 --> 00:59:06.320
is it that you're just aware of it so that

928
00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:12.119
you're experiencing things more or is it maybe something is

929
00:59:12.159 --> 00:59:17.840
more aware of you since you are tuned into whatever

930
00:59:17.920 --> 00:59:20.960
is happening out there could be a few differents look

931
00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:21.320
at it.

932
00:59:22.599 --> 00:59:26.079
Yeah, I mean it's like for someone that like doesn't

933
00:59:26.079 --> 00:59:29.079
believe or like refuses to believe. And they're out in

934
00:59:29.079 --> 00:59:31.960
the woods and they hear a strange noise, you know,

935
00:59:32.039 --> 00:59:35.400
they just shrug it off and be like, well, that's,

936
00:59:35.440 --> 00:59:38.199
you know, just an animal in the woods or some

937
00:59:38.239 --> 00:59:39.760
sort of animal making that noise.

938
00:59:39.800 --> 00:59:41.280
Is like nothing to worry about.

939
00:59:41.400 --> 00:59:45.440
Right, if you have an open mind on this, especially

940
00:59:46.000 --> 00:59:49.000
once you have like an encounter like I had when

941
00:59:49.039 --> 00:59:54.840
I was young, Like you know, like I mean, like

942
00:59:54.880 --> 00:59:57.119
I said, like, it's like I still get scared to

943
00:59:57.159 --> 01:00:02.000
go in the woods, especially when it's dark. Like usually

944
01:00:02.079 --> 01:00:05.440
I don't bowl hunt in the mornings to go to

945
01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:08.519
the stand, but when gun season comes around on November,

946
01:00:09.079 --> 01:00:13.119
you have to be in your stand before light, and

947
01:00:13.480 --> 01:00:17.519
you know, it's it gets nerve wracking. Even like even

948
01:00:17.519 --> 01:00:20.079
when you have a rifle. I mean, you hear stories

949
01:00:20.119 --> 01:00:24.079
about how big these things are, and like you know,

950
01:00:24.159 --> 01:00:26.719
people say, like I've seen how big these things are,

951
01:00:26.760 --> 01:00:29.159
and the gun I was holding, I don't think you

952
01:00:29.199 --> 01:00:32.960
could take it out or would you know, do enough

953
01:00:33.079 --> 01:00:35.360
damage to it before it got to me first. Right,

954
01:00:36.199 --> 01:00:41.679
It's like it's just a lot of really weird stuff

955
01:00:41.719 --> 01:00:42.159
out there.

956
01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:50.960
Logan. I think that there's gonna be definitely more that

957
01:00:51.039 --> 01:00:55.239
you guys are experiencing, it feels like there's there's more

958
01:00:55.320 --> 01:00:59.119
to code. There's more to come, definitely, you know, keep

959
01:00:59.159 --> 01:01:04.719
me in the loop with if the BFROL guys go

960
01:01:04.840 --> 01:01:07.920
out again, or if you're just you know, experiencing things

961
01:01:08.000 --> 01:01:11.159
or your relatives are still I'd love to hear about it.

962
01:01:11.360 --> 01:01:15.559
But would you ever want to have an experience out

963
01:01:15.559 --> 01:01:21.039
there where you have a visual sighting and actually see something?

964
01:01:23.199 --> 01:01:24.119
That's a good question.

965
01:01:28.400 --> 01:01:33.599
I'm not really sure, you know, Like I mean, you

966
01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:37.039
hear like people that when they see these things, like

967
01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:40.239
like they just lose control of their body, you know,

968
01:01:40.400 --> 01:01:44.559
like people like wet themselves and like a lockup they

969
01:01:44.599 --> 01:01:51.119
can't move and you know, I can still go in

970
01:01:51.119 --> 01:01:56.079
the woods. But you know, if I saw something like that,

971
01:01:58.119 --> 01:01:59.920
depending on like how big it was, you know. And

972
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:02.920
because I mean these things, I mean you would have

973
01:02:02.960 --> 01:02:07.480
to assume are like somewhat human, right, Like they're obviously

974
01:02:07.480 --> 01:02:13.920
intelligent enough to stay hidden and be very elusive, and

975
01:02:14.280 --> 01:02:16.400
just like humans, they probably come in all different shapes

976
01:02:16.440 --> 01:02:17.079
and sizes.

977
01:02:17.960 --> 01:02:21.280
So if you see like one of the big males, like,

978
01:02:21.400 --> 01:02:22.159
I'm not sure.

979
01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:25.760
I'm not sure if I could be in the woods

980
01:02:25.800 --> 01:02:30.239
unless you know, unless I had some form of weapon

981
01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:35.360
with me, And even people say, like even if they

982
01:02:35.360 --> 01:02:39.159
do have a weapon on them, you know, like you know,

983
01:02:39.239 --> 01:02:41.920
you get locked up, like you're frozen in fear. In

984
01:02:41.960 --> 01:02:47.320
other words, like I think if I did see one,

985
01:02:48.079 --> 01:02:53.159
I don't know what I would do. I mean, you know,

986
01:02:53.800 --> 01:02:56.039
I think you know, I'd like to say that I

987
01:02:56.039 --> 01:03:02.679
would try to continue to, you know, learn more about them.

988
01:03:03.480 --> 01:03:07.000
But until you have you know, a visual fighting, it's

989
01:03:07.079 --> 01:03:11.199
like you don't really know how you would feel.

990
01:03:10.960 --> 01:03:11.159
You know.

991
01:03:13.760 --> 01:03:17.599
No, I definitely agree. I haven't had one either as well,

992
01:03:17.679 --> 01:03:21.719
But I think you're on the right track by having

993
01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:28.320
the right motivation and the right You've got the right

994
01:03:28.360 --> 01:03:32.559
intention when you're going out there as well. So it'll

995
01:03:32.599 --> 01:03:36.280
be interesting to see what happens next. But look, and

996
01:03:36.360 --> 01:03:40.079
I want to make sure that you have also shared

997
01:03:40.119 --> 01:03:43.719
everything that you you would like to share tonight as

998
01:03:43.760 --> 01:03:46.920
well as we start to wind on our time together.

999
01:03:49.480 --> 01:03:52.719
I think so, I think you know, that pretty much

1000
01:03:52.800 --> 01:03:56.679
sums up most of the experiences that I don't think

1001
01:03:56.679 --> 01:03:58.599
I left anything out.

1002
01:03:59.880 --> 01:04:03.800
I apologize to anyone out there because.

1003
01:04:03.760 --> 01:04:08.159
I know I'm not like the most descriptive or I'm

1004
01:04:08.159 --> 01:04:11.239
not really great at telling stories and I say, elm

1005
01:04:11.280 --> 01:04:11.599
a lot.

1006
01:04:11.719 --> 01:04:13.000
So I apologize for that.

1007
01:04:14.239 --> 01:04:17.960
I don't think there's any need to apologize. Dude, you did,

1008
01:04:18.079 --> 01:04:22.599
you did great. It's it's a very straightforward story. Thank you.

1009
01:04:24.559 --> 01:04:24.840
Yeah.

1010
01:04:24.880 --> 01:04:29.039
And you know, like without really seeing, you know, without

1011
01:04:29.079 --> 01:04:33.039
seeing what chases out of the woods that day, I

1012
01:04:33.119 --> 01:04:36.159
do think it was a family group, definitely more than

1013
01:04:36.199 --> 01:04:42.079
one because the amount of like how fast those noises

1014
01:04:42.079 --> 01:04:45.679
that we were hearing around those could not have just

1015
01:04:45.719 --> 01:04:49.960
been a single one. And who knows, I mean they

1016
01:04:49.960 --> 01:04:53.239
could have done also juvenile ones that were kind of like,

1017
01:04:54.800 --> 01:04:57.480
let's scare the you know, let's scare these kids out

1018
01:04:57.480 --> 01:04:59.400
of the world, do something. You know, maybe we're getting

1019
01:04:59.400 --> 01:05:05.960
too close to something important to them. I mean, there's

1020
01:05:06.119 --> 01:05:09.920
you know, there's just so much, so much out there

1021
01:05:10.599 --> 01:05:14.000
that has done yet to you know, really be fully understood.

1022
01:05:15.280 --> 01:05:18.880
So but I think that does wrap it up for

1023
01:05:19.159 --> 01:05:21.239
you know, the encounters and stuff I had.

1024
01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:25.159
Well that that's a great way to put it. There

1025
01:05:25.199 --> 01:05:29.559
is there is much much more out there to discover.

1026
01:05:29.679 --> 01:05:32.360
But thank you so much for coming on on the show.

1027
01:05:32.440 --> 01:05:37.519
Logan and hold on one minute, but thank you for

1028
01:05:37.559 --> 01:05:40.880

1029

thank you truly for listening to this episode of the

1030
01:05:43.119 --> 01:05:47.880

1031
01:05:48.079 --> 01:05:50.280
not just for the mystery, but for how deeply they

1032
01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:52.920
stay with the people who live through them. From the

1033
01:05:52.920 --> 01:05:56.159
Tomorrow River to Squatches Patch. This one was packed with

1034
01:05:56.199 --> 01:05:59.519
eerie detail and raw emotion, and I'm grateful that Logan

1035
01:05:59.599 --> 01:06:02.400
