Season 1

In this gripping part 1 of a 2 part episode series from the Bigfoot Society archives, host Jeremiah Byron sits down with Carrie, a courageous eyewitness who reveals how a series of chilling encounters with mysterious, towering creatures forced her and her husband to leave their home in Newport, Tennessee, near the Smoky Mountains.



Carrie recounts eerie whistles echoing through the Rankin Hill Wildlife Refuge, bizarre metal car parts being ripped off, and nights filled with deafening screams and shaking trees. As fear turned to fascination, she began documenting strange evidence — massive 18-inch footprints, mind-to-mind communication, and gifts left behind after a missing watermelon. The encounters escalated until government vehicles and gunfire filled the quiet Tennessee holler, confirming she and her family were not alone.



Whether you’re a believer or skeptic, this firsthand account offers one of the most detailed and unnerving Bigfoot encounter stories ever told. Join Jeremiah and Carrie as they explore the thin line between the natural and the supernatural deep in the Smoky Mountain woods.

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.120
You're listening to BIGFA Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In

2
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.879
this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring

3
00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:08.720
you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.880
something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to

5
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.719
quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,

6
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.719
and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.

7
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.000
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.

8
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:27.440
To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that

9
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.120
just might change the way you see the woods forever.

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.840
So stay with us. Aripick for Society. You've got the

11
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.840
privilege of talking to Carrie today. Saw some posts that

12
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:39.560
she had put on Facebook, and she's got some very

13
00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:43.119
interesting things that have been happening over the years. But Carrie,

14
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.159
it's a pleasure to have you here. Let's start out first.

15
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:48.840
You had been mentioning in the pre interview about how

16
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:54.679
there's a relation to Harley Harley's episode that you had

17
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:56.240
heard on my podcast earlier.

18
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:01.719
Oh yes, definitely, Jeremy, And by the way, thank you

19
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:05.359
for letting me share my experiences. It took me about

20
00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:09.200
two years to finally come forward and want to share

21
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:13.799
anything because I had put a post when I first

22
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:16.840
had my first encounter. I put a post on my

23
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:20.400
local Facebook group and the same area that Harley is in,

24
00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:25.079
and I got bullied and attacked so much within probably

25
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:29.000
less than five minutes. I had to take my post down.

26
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.400
And it was just people were so hateful and they

27
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.920
just and they didn't want to hear it. And maybe

28
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:39.920
it's just a conspiracy theory, but I don't think all

29
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:43.000
of those people are just normal people. I think some

30
00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:46.200
of those people might be like government people that are

31
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:49.599
out there just to attack the real people that have

32
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.400
had encounters, so we won't come forward and share our

33
00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:57.319
experiences because it was pretty brutal. But I had encounters

34
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:02.200
when mine started in the same area that Early is from.

35
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:05.040
Yeah, and I do want to address something real quick,

36
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:07.200
so that happens to me all the time as well.

37
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:09.560
It is not fun. But if I found if you

38
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:11.840
keep that post up for about two to three weeks,

39
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:16.159
the people then that have seen things will start to

40
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:19.680
send you DMS. It happens every time I get made

41
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.120
fun of groups. But then two to three weeks later,

42
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:25.919
the people will start to come out with yes, okay,

43
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:28.560
I did have things going on. I need to talk

44
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:29.120
to you about it.

45
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.599
So just aside crazy.

46
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:34.879
Yeah for listeners. But Carrie, let's start at the beginning.

47
00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:37.520
Where did this all start to happen? If you could

48
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:40.719
share the county, the state, and what was what were

49
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:42.240
the first things that you noticed.

50
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:48.840
This happened when we first originally from Virginia where I

51
00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:52.080
grew up, the border of West Virginia and Virginia. It

52
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.759
was very very mountainous, very hilly, very woodsy. So I

53
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:59.560
grew up playing in the woods, hunting, fishing, so I

54
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:04.479
was pretty much very familiar with the woods. And we

55
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:10.000
moved mainly husband moved to Middle Tennessee. Newport was the

56
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:14.039
county was in the foothills of the Smokies, probably twenty

57
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:19.080
five thirty minutes from Gatlinburg, very small town by the river.

58
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:23.120
There's a couple of rivers in the area, and we lived.

59
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:26.439
It's called at the end of our road. Was called

60
00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:33.280
Rncoln r an ki N Hill Wildlife Management Refuge. Why

61
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:37.840
it's that long name, I have no idea, But nobody

62
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:42.560
ever went there really and in the wintertime, summertime it's

63
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:45.280
filled up with water. They had a lot of bass

64
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:49.560
fishing tournaments there. It would fill into Douglas damn Lake

65
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.199
area overflow and in the winter they suck up all

66
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:55.560
the water and use it for energy at the dam.

67
00:03:56.240 --> 00:04:00.000
But in the fall and winter or even in the summer,

68
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.319
where you could there's a lot of trails through there.

69
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:05.159
You could walk, and we had kayaks, so we would

70
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:08.759
literally just walk across the street from our house, a

71
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:12.719
little one road in and out and you jump right

72
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:16.120
on the railroad tracks and we walk right to the

73
00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:20.000
wildlife refuge and just look around because it was like

74
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:23.519
a scooped out bull right in the middle of like

75
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:27.319
the smoky mountain footholes foothills, and it was beautiful and

76
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:29.519
there was nobody there, so it was a good little

77
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.959
spot to walk. We didn't really do any fishing, but

78
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:37.079
that was where That's not where I had a first encounter,

79
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:39.800
but that is where I first started noticing things. When

80
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:43.879
we first moved into that area, we were moving boxes

81
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.240
in and as we were moving boxes in, Okay, when

82
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:51.639
we had a long gravel driveway and when you pull

83
00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.199
up to our house, you're facing the house, but you

84
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:58.879
park on the side of the house. So behind our

85
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:02.079
house was about oh god, I don't know three five

86
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:07.639
acres and about three of it was flat clear, no trees,

87
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:12.120
no brush, no nothing, and a very small, two foot deep,

88
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:16.000
about four foot wide creek. When water was running through

89
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.639
it would go through the middle of it down from

90
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:22.600
the overrun fell off of the mountains and so the

91
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:24.720
wood So you parked on the side of the house

92
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:28.720
in the woods were one hundred and fifty feet from

93
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:31.720
where you park in the house, and we had a

94
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:34.680
back deck and as we were moving boxes in, I

95
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:38.839
heard these very weird whistles, and I remember making a

96
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:41.319
comment to my husband and we were laughing. I'm like, wow,

97
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:45.319
I didn't know we were moving into the Amazon jungle because

98
00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:48.759
it was so loud and the whistles were so strange.

99
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:51.240
It sounded like some kind of bird you'd hear in

100
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:54.439
the Amazon. And then there was a whistle all the

101
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:58.279
way across the field, like three acres away, and it

102
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:00.879
would answer about us the other whistle back, and it

103
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:03.800
was so loud you could hear it. Most birds you

104
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.199
can't hear super loud three acres away, answering back and forth,

105
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:12.439
and it was just like nothing I had ever heard before.

106
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:15.399
And he stopped for a second. He was like, yeah,

107
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:19.160
that is weird, isn't it, and that that's where it started.

108
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:23.600
And I was not a big Foot believer. I of

109
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:27.199
course I saw the Patty film. Everybody did. I never

110
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.839
listened to any shows, watched any film, didn't know anything

111
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:35.360
about it except seeing that one little Patty clip on TV.

112
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:38.959
I just did not believe in the Lord, and I

113
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.920
just I don't know. I didn't believe, and I think

114
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.120
I was very close minded. I didn't think that I

115
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:50.120
was what I was. It's nice and comfortable thinking that

116
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:55.079
nothing else exists out there except what we're told, you're

117
00:06:55.079 --> 00:06:59.560
told growing up, that other creatures and monsters and beans

118
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:05.519
aren't besides demons, angels, having hell people, things you can

119
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:08.920
see and that sort of stuff, and nothing else. And

120
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:14.800
that's comfortable thinking that. It's scary thinking and knowing now

121
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:18.839
that other things are definitely one hundred percent out there,

122
00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:21.800
and it's terrifying. I think that's why a lot of

123
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:26.879
people bully others, because it's scary. It is scary. My

124
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:31.439
first encounter was only about three weeks after moving in.

125
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:37.120
We noticed that metal, shiny pieces of my husband's car.

126
00:07:37.639 --> 00:07:40.519
I know, it sounds crazy. We're starting to be pulled

127
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:45.120
off where we lived. There wasn't any houses really around.

128
00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:50.399
It was farmers, farmhouses spread far apart. There wasn't people

129
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:54.040
like right next door. I think I'd said once before,

130
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:56.920
there wasn't. You don't. There wasn't enough people where you

131
00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.040
turn your light on for trick or treaters. There just

132
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:02.920
wasn't anybody. Was very remote. And I've also said the

133
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:06.560
more remote you live, the more remote other things live too.

134
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:10.519
Is what I have found out. I woke up about

135
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:13.879
three o'clock in three thirty in the morning, and I

136
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:17.800
was dead asleep. I woke up with this overwhelming feeling

137
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:22.240
of just dread and anxiety. And I did not know why.

138
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:25.240
We always came in and out the front door, because

139
00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:27.480
we had a small little deck and we had a

140
00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:29.560
little spot where we would wipe our feet and take

141
00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:34.399
our shoes off. And I jumped up and my husband

142
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:38.320
had this giant handheld spotlight looked like an old radar detector.

143
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:40.960
And I don't even know why I went to the

144
00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.039
back door, but it was like I knew to go

145
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.200
to the back door, and we didn't even use the

146
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:48.480
back door unless we were sitting on the back deck.

147
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:51.720
Went right to the back door, opened the back door,

148
00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:55.519
a little bit about halfway and I shined the light

149
00:08:55.559 --> 00:08:57.639
across the field and I'm like, oh my gosh, what

150
00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:00.799
am I doing. There's just I was thinking there. First

151
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:03.080
of all, there was always deer out there. We had

152
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:06.360
a family of fox deer. I had a pet skunk

153
00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:08.080
that would come out of the woods. I would feed

154
00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:12.799
cheese popcorn too. Yes, and no, that's crazy. He would

155
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:15.679
come out and I'd feed him cheese popcorn and he'd

156
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:17.840
just go back in the woods when he had his fill.

157
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:20.799
So there was a ton of wildlife and that's why

158
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.639
we liked living there. And I shined the light across

159
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:26.679
the field and I was going real slow, and I

160
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:29.840
was seeing nothing, and I'm like, thinking, that's weird. There

161
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:34.840
definitely should be some deer out here. It was, oh gosh,

162
00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:37.559
I want to say, the end of January. So I

163
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:39.840
knew it was cold, but it didn't matter. There was

164
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:42.720
always deer and I kept seeing nothing. So I get

165
00:09:42.759 --> 00:09:45.320
pan over to the creek and all of a sudden,

166
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.120
I see this bear and I'm like, wow, there's a

167
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:51.159
bear at the creek. We've been here a little while

168
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:53.759
and I already asked the neighbors and they all of

169
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.320
the neighbors and we walked the dogs. We would say,

170
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.080
neighbors out. We would ask them hey, and they're like, no,

171
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:02.720
bears never come out the smoke down at the National Park.

172
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:05.600
They don't need to because the tourists leave enough food

173
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:08.039
for them to eat. There's no they don't need to cook.

174
00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:10.519
They never come as far, never seeing any been here

175
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:15.360
twenty years. Everybody had the same story. So I see

176
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:18.279
this bear and I'm like, oh my gosh, there's a bear. Wow.

177
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:20.840
And then all of a sudden it stands up and

178
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:25.159
I'm like what what? And then the light hits its body.

179
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:28.799
And the best way I can describe it is when

180
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:33.399
it hit its body, it's all the light sucked into it.

181
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:35.919
It was like if you ever have a flashlight and

182
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:38.159
you can twist the end of the flashlight and you

183
00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:41.399
can make the big the circle on the that's shooting

184
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:44.879
out the light bigger or tinier by twisting the end

185
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:47.960
of the flashlight. That's what happened when I hit it

186
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.919
with the flashlight, Except it happened pretty fast, and then

187
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:53.919
all the light was gone into this thing, and I'm

188
00:10:53.960 --> 00:11:00.200
like what, But but it's body illuminated because it had

189
00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:02.600
absorbed all the light. I don't even know how that

190
00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:06.080
makes sense, but that's what happened. And I saw that

191
00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:09.399
it had hands, and I'm like, wow, what the heck?

192
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:12.519
Like my mind was totally trying to figure out a

193
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.879
box to put this in because I didn't know what

194
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:18.080
it was. I knew it wasn't I knew it wasn't

195
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:23.320
a human, and its hands were like Ashley Gray, hung down,

196
00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.240
tasked its knees. It did have a little bit of

197
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:28.919
a belly. I don't know if it was a female

198
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:31.799
or male because it was turned sideways so I couldn't

199
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:34.919
I didn't get a front view, and I'm grateful that

200
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.159
I did not see its face full on because I

201
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:42.600
still have that night that burned into my mind like

202
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:47.399
a record, like I can't stop overplaying that. And before

203
00:11:47.440 --> 00:11:49.399
I had a chance to do anything else or even

204
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:51.919
figure out what am I gonna do? What is this?

205
00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:56.320
This all happened so quick, But they say sometimes when

206
00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:00.200
traumatic things happened, it feels like time stop. That's it

207
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:03.480
feels like that times had stopped and it was just

208
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:07.519
going like soup or slow motion, and it leaned its

209
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:11.519
head back and it let out a scream. I have

210
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.759
never heard anything that I don't even know how I

211
00:12:15.759 --> 00:12:18.879
still have ear drums. I've never heard anything that loud

212
00:12:19.360 --> 00:12:23.240
and that long in my entire life. It literally sounded

213
00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:27.000
like the worst horror flick. You could watch a woman

214
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:32.080
being murdered and her guts coming out like very guttural, screechy,

215
00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:36.080
just scream and it didn't take a breath. Was a

216
00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:40.679
crazy part. It was at least twenty to twenty five

217
00:12:40.759 --> 00:12:45.240
seconds long when I've replayed it in my head. And

218
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.679
when that happened, I hadn't. I was behind the metal

219
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:54.120
aluminum door and it had little like nine ten nine

220
00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:57.559
panes of windows in it. It was a modular home,

221
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:01.960
so a regular modular home back door, and I was

222
00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.879
halfway in, halfway out of it. And when that scream happened,

223
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.480
I clumbled over in a little ball, but in the

224
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.879
standing up position, and this wave went hit me in

225
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:17.000
the head and it was like whoom woom woo, went

226
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:20.240
all the way through my body, through my toes, and

227
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.360
I felt all of my organs vibrate. If you pull

228
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:26.279
up to somebody and to stop light and they're based

229
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:28.519
on their stereo was too loud, and you can feel

230
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:32.240
like you're inside stumping a little bit, that's what happened.

231
00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.840
And I couldn't. I was unable to move. And it

232
00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:39.600
wasn't because of fear. I've been in the woods that

233
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.440
I've been, oh gosh, deep in the woods twelve miles

234
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:46.759
hunting by myself alone the way before I knew this

235
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:51.200
was out there, and I've seen bear and stuff, and

236
00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:54.480
I haven't a mountain lion. In West Virginia, I actually

237
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:58.320
got chased by a bear. Wasn't really afraid because I

238
00:13:58.360 --> 00:13:59.879
was in the house. I could have shut the door,

239
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.679
but I was frozen. I was I was not able

240
00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:09.960
to move. And after about twenty seconds, when it stopped

241
00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:14.159
for the last I want to say the last three seconds,

242
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:18.159
it seemed of its scream, it seemed like I started

243
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.799
to like unfreeze and I started being able to move.

244
00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:23.840
It's so weird. It's if you're frozen and all of

245
00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:27.080
a sudden, you're something's dethawing and you're you're starting to

246
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:30.000
come on thawed. You can move. And I was able

247
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.480
to move, and I jump behind the door and I

248
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.519
was like, oh, dear God, what just happened. Like this,

249
00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:40.919
This isn't happening. This can't stuff, This does not can't exist.

250
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:45.960
And had hair, not fur, and I could somewhat see

251
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:51.080
skin through the hair. It was about ninety feet from me,

252
00:14:51.639 --> 00:14:53.440
and it was a clear vision. The woods were in

253
00:14:53.480 --> 00:14:56.759
the background, so there was no trees, no bushes, nothing

254
00:14:56.799 --> 00:15:00.440
obstructing my view. I know one hundred percent I saw,

255
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:03.240
and I have said time and time again I would

256
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:06.039
take a light detector test any day for anything. I

257
00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:08.840
said that, it is one hundred percent of the truth.

258
00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:13.480
And I'm mad that people get bullied or the government

259
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.759
doesn't tell people about this, because these things are out

260
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:19.720
there and they know they're out there, and a lot

261
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:22.000
some of them are bad and some of them, some

262
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:25.159
of them are good. After that happened and I saw this,

263
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:29.600
I said, Oh dear God, what is this? And I'm like, okay,

264
00:15:29.759 --> 00:15:32.000
that's a big foot. Well, I mean, there's what else

265
00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:34.320
could it be. That's the only thing I knew closely

266
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:38.759
related to what it looked like before I'd seen the

267
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.399
Patti film. So I'm like, as much as I don't

268
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:43.240
want to do this, i have to do it again

269
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:47.919
because I cannot go around telling my husband and my

270
00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:50.960
kids and everybody else, guess what, guys, I saw Bigfoot.

271
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:52.960
They're gonna be like oh, yeah, I'm sure you did.

272
00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:56.120
So I'm like, gotta do it again. So I sure

273
00:15:56.159 --> 00:15:58.320
did it. I shine the light on it again, and

274
00:15:58.440 --> 00:16:00.279
I did not want to do it, but I had

275
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:01.879
to be one hundred percent shore.

276
00:16:02.519 --> 00:16:02.960
This time.

277
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:05.399
It had moved up into the forest a little bit,

278
00:16:05.960 --> 00:16:08.240
but it was winter, so there wasn't any leaves on

279
00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:10.440
the trees or just a bunch of brown sticks. So

280
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:13.960
I could see it, and it was like a mahogany ish.

281
00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:18.720
It was mahogany ish, real dark black. I wouldn't say black,

282
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:23.360
but woody mahogany brown, very dark. And it did not

283
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:27.320
have like a comb shaped head. It just had a

284
00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:30.960
head on top of big shoulders. We measured later on

285
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:35.000
how tall it was. It was at least eight feet tall.

286
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.600
If I had to guess, I would say six hundred pounds.

287
00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:41.440
It did seem to have rest in his stomach, like

288
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:44.279
a five or six month pregnant woman. I could see

289
00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:47.840
that the side view of the chest and the stomach.

290
00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:51.399
The hair was a lot thinner in that area, and

291
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:55.759
it did have I could see a little bit of

292
00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:58.039
the calves, but I couldn't see the feet because it

293
00:16:58.080 --> 00:17:02.320
was standing in the creek. It was bent over sideways

294
00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:04.880
drinking from the creek. I don't know if it was

295
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:07.559
scooping up with his hand or it's actually had its

296
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:10.200
mouth in the creek. But so I had a really

297
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:14.480
good side. You had very broad shoulders, and I hit

298
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:16.559
it with the light again, and I was ready for

299
00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:20.880
the screen. This time, the exact same scenario happened again,

300
00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:25.480
but since I was expecting it, I wasn't frozen. I

301
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:28.680
didn't get frozen, and I definitely did not go outside.

302
00:17:28.720 --> 00:17:30.880
I would just kept the door cracked just enough to

303
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:33.920
wear knocked at that door. That door wouldn't have done.

304
00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:36.640
That thing was so big it could have come right

305
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:38.839
through the wall if it wanted to. That door wouldn't

306
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:42.160
have done anything. So I hit it with the light again,

307
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:48.000
same thing, same screen, same length at time, and I

308
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:52.400
my and then my insides they rippled again, the whole

309
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.400
thing that And then I was like yep, and it

310
00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:59.000
stopped screaming, and I took my finger off the trigger

311
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:01.119
of the light. You had to push. You had to

312
00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:03.720
put your hand on the trigger to get the light going.

313
00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:07.079
And as soon as I let my hand off the trigger,

314
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:10.920
it stopped, and I'm like, yep, I just saw a

315
00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:14.160
freaking big foot. Actually not, I'm here. I am. I

316
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:17.279
didn't laugh at anybody in public or make fun of

317
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:19.599
them or bully them, but I was kind of laughing

318
00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:22.240
to myself, Oh my gosh, these people are nuts. There's

319
00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:26.680
not so ridiculous. These things don't. Yes, yes they do.

320
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:30.799
And I laid there. I shut the door and locked

321
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:33.519
the door. I laid there all night. I couldn't go

322
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:35.759
back to sleep. I didn't want to wake my husband up,

323
00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:38.079
so I laid there all night thinking like, what the

324
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.519
heck am I going to tell him? Like he's somewhat believed,

325
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:43.640
and he had brought it to my attention before a

326
00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:47.160
couple of times some shows, and now here I am like.

327
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:50.440
So when we woke up, I told him, and he

328
00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:52.440
was like, oh my gosh, let's go down and look.

329
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.039
And we went down and looked, and there were tracks there.

330
00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:58.039
We measured eighteen inches long. We didn't know anything about

331
00:18:58.400 --> 00:19:03.279
casting or what even casking was footprints anything like that.

332
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:07.480
And we measured from where I saw the back tree.

333
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:09.960
Like when I saw it standing there, I could see

334
00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:12.319
a tree in the background, So I estimated the height

335
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:15.000
that we measured from where I could see the top

336
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:16.799
of the head with the tree in the background, and

337
00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:19.599
it was about it eight feet or a little bit over.

338
00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:25.480
And that was the very first experience with them and

339
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:28.039
it has not stopped since then.

340
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:34.039
Carrie, that is absolutely incredible. First off, thank you for

341
00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:37.519
sharing that. So to clarify, you do not live at

342
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:43.079
this property anymore, right, No, we do not. After this

343
00:19:43.359 --> 00:19:46.960
started to happen. Did at any point they start to

344
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:48.319
come closer to the house.

345
00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:54.960
Oh, stucky so much. That is why we moved Yep,

346
00:19:55.799 --> 00:19:59.680
big time. And there was more than one. And it

347
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:03.720
was nightly and at the time my husband was a

348
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:07.400
truck driver and he was just starting out and truck driving,

349
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:09.759
so there was a lot of times he had to

350
00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:13.400
be gone at night. Oh let me let me say

351
00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:16.200
this too. I had I didn't have any guns anymore,

352
00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:20.720
as I gave up hunting after we moved into the Smokies.

353
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:23.039
I had a I don't know, I said, a whole

354
00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:26.160
different view of wildlife. Like I said, a pet skunk

355
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:28.559
that would come out of the woods, I'd feed cheese popcorn.

356
00:20:29.480 --> 00:20:32.079
There was a bunch of baby deer that the mom

357
00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:35.480
had abandoned that I adopted my name. There was Lvernon

358
00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:38.799
Shirley loosing etholic like they all I had names, and

359
00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:42.200
they lived under the deck and I would bottle feed

360
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:44.079
him and stuff. And then when they got big enough,

361
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.200
they would just take off. So I got rid of

362
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:49.519
all my guns. But when I saw this, oh, I

363
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:52.400
got the biggest gun I could get. I got a

364
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:57.079
fifty caliber gun with the scope. And there's a reason

365
00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:00.960
why I'm telling you that. Because night when my husband

366
00:21:01.039 --> 00:21:03.160
had to do an overnight trip, and it wasn't too

367
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:06.519
long after this, I heard our front deck was about

368
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:09.839
ten by ten wooden and it was and I usually

369
00:21:09.839 --> 00:21:11.759
did not stay up to slate. It was about ten

370
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:14.039
o'clock at night and I was gone to bed. I

371
00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:17.799
have a service dog. He is my best, bestest friend

372
00:21:17.839 --> 00:21:23.079
in the world. He's a large Rottweiler. And this dog

373
00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:24.960
is stuck to me like loo. I take a shower

374
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:27.559
and he sits there like guards the shower like so no,

375
00:21:28.279 --> 00:21:30.680
I guess cereal murderers will get me in the shower.

376
00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:33.599
I don't know, it's what he thinks. So we were

377
00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:35.000
getting ready to go to bed and he's not a

378
00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:38.519
bed right next to mine and his name is kaz So.

379
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:41.799
But walking to go by the bedroom, you have to

380
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:44.680
go by the front door to get into the master bedroom,

381
00:21:44.680 --> 00:21:48.319
which is in the front. So I hear the stumping.

382
00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:50.720
It reminds all I could see in my head was

383
00:21:50.759 --> 00:21:54.200
like a little kid doing the high step, marching round

384
00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:57.480
in circles. My girls did it, and they're grown now,

385
00:21:57.559 --> 00:22:01.119
but that's what I could hear. And I'm like thinking, Okay,

386
00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:05.720
you just imagine not happening. Anytime anything happens, I try

387
00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:08.279
to debunk it in any way I can. I'm not

388
00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:10.960
the first. Oh my gosh, that's a ghost. Oh my god,

389
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:14.119
that's a big I try to debunk in any way

390
00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:17.839
I can. And then when I can't, it just is

391
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:20.880
what it is. I can't. And I kept trying, Okay,

392
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:23.480
what's this? Shit's that? And he kept getting louder, And

393
00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:27.039
this went on for four minutes. So I'm standing about

394
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:31.279
six feet from the front door, and my dog he

395
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:33.920
starts growling. First he was looking at the door and

396
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:36.000
his head was going from side to side when you

397
00:22:36.039 --> 00:22:38.319
knowing dogs do that and they're trying to figure something out,

398
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:41.279
Like he's going, Okay, it's not Mom, she's right here. Okay,

399
00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:44.119
it's not Dad, Okay, it's not this. Okay, it's not

400
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:46.319
that he's going back and forth, and all of a sudden,

401
00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:48.720
after he goes to the whole scenario people he knows

402
00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:51.680
in his head, he starts backing up, and he starts

403
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:55.920
growling this meenest growl I've never heard come out of him,

404
00:22:56.440 --> 00:22:59.519
and his whole body puffed up, like all his hair

405
00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:02.240
starts standing up, not just to stripe down his back

406
00:23:02.279 --> 00:23:06.720
but everywhere. And I was like, okay, I'm abstutly scared.

407
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:12.720
So then I was praying to God it wasn't gonna happen,

408
00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:16.759
but it did. I saw my doorknob turning, and I

409
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:19.519
heard this after the fact, that they like to imitate

410
00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:22.559
what people do. After I saw the first one, I

411
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:27.599
was so paranoid about. Like I said, this modular home

412
00:23:27.799 --> 00:23:29.799
ours wasn't made very good. It could have come right

413
00:23:29.839 --> 00:23:31.440
through the wall. It could have literally put its skin

414
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:33.160
right to the wall if it wanted to. They were

415
00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:38.200
paper thin, and the doorknob started turning me back up.

416
00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:41.400
Before that, I kept always checking the windows and the

417
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.640
door locks like fifty times a night, and every time

418
00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:46.720
I would say you checked the door, Yes, I checked it.

419
00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:49.279
I've checked it fifteen times, Carrie. I've already checked it

420
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:51.759
and I would just check it every night, and when

421
00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:53.799
I would do it, I would turn the doorknob and

422
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:57.039
it would go click and make its clicking sound. So

423
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:01.519
the front doorknob started turning back and forth just like

424
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:04.680
I did when I checked to see if they were locked,

425
00:24:05.039 --> 00:24:07.559
and it was doing that clicking sound, and I was like,

426
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:11.880
oh my god, I'm so scared. And I was standing

427
00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:14.880
right there. I was like, my feet felt like they

428
00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:17.759
had cement shoes on them, like they didn't on the

429
00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:19.799
top of my body was trying to go in the bedroom,

430
00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:22.319
but my legs wouldn't move. I was like, okay, I

431
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:25.039
was so scared, and then I'm like and then I

432
00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:29.319
felt my heart like and I started hyperventilating because here

433
00:24:29.359 --> 00:24:32.000
I'm alone and I'm in this. I've seen this thing

434
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:35.319
outside and now I knew what was out front. I

435
00:24:35.400 --> 00:24:37.440
knew it wasn't a person. I just knew that it

436
00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:40.559
was them. They have an energy that they put off

437
00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:45.400
and whenever they're around. I don't know, I just I

438
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:47.960
can feel them. It's they, I don't know, just an

439
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.079
energy I can feel when they're around, and I knew

440
00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:54.799
it was them, And all of a sudden, I said

441
00:24:54.839 --> 00:24:57.319
in my head very I said, Okay, Kerrie, calm down.

442
00:24:58.079 --> 00:25:00.680
And I only said this in my head. Okay, Carrie,

443
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:04.880
calm down, this is really happening. Go get your gun,

444
00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:07.839
and I had it loaded and it was right under

445
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.720
my side of the bed. So second, the very second

446
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:14.200
I got done saying that, I had an answer back

447
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:18.480
in my head, which I still can't believe that they

448
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:22.279
can do this, but they can. It said, and I've

449
00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:26.480
heard where people say it sounds like computer generated, and

450
00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:28.640
I'm like, no, it doesn't. But then I thought about

451
00:25:28.640 --> 00:25:33.000
why would they say that, And I understand because they

452
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:37.319
said it very slow and very precise, like they wanted

453
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:40.079
you to hear every word they were saying. And it

454
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:46.160
said it just like this, do not bother. It won't

455
00:25:46.359 --> 00:25:50.799
do any good against us, So I can see why

456
00:25:50.839 --> 00:25:53.240
they would say it would be sounded like a computer

457
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:57.039
saying that. So as soon as that happened, I was

458
00:25:57.079 --> 00:26:00.000
like what I started like literally shaking my head back,

459
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:02.759
like like looking around and of course I'm the only

460
00:26:02.759 --> 00:26:06.119
one there. And then my dog he's still growling and barking.

461
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:10.000
He wasn't barking, but he was growling, mean growl, and

462
00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:13.000
he was like he was ready to jump me. He

463
00:26:13.079 --> 00:26:16.799
was ready not to run away, and I was like,

464
00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:20.319
what do I do? Instead of saying, I start laughing.

465
00:26:20.319 --> 00:26:24.519
I'm like a crazy person because I'm thinking my and

466
00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:26.680
my thoughts went through my head so fast. Okay, what

467
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:28.640
am I gonna do? Blow a holes at the front door?

468
00:26:28.759 --> 00:26:31.759
Of course not because now my husband's gonna come home.

469
00:26:31.839 --> 00:26:34.039
How am I gonna explain that? What if I'm wrong?

470
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:36.279
What if it's a person? I don't wanna kill anybody.

471
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:39.480
Am I gonna kill somebody? Am I gonna open the door?

472
00:26:39.680 --> 00:26:42.200
Absolutely not. I'm not gonna open to What am I

473
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:45.400
gonna do? I can't do anything. There's nothing I can do.

474
00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:48.079
So I start laughing. What if they're right? And then

475
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:50.519
what if it's more than one? Then I shoot one?

476
00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:53.039
Then I'm really in trouble. What if I'm miss he's

477
00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:56.000
only one shot in there? It's like, what am I

478
00:26:56.039 --> 00:26:59.039
gonna do? So I go I start laughing like nut

479
00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:02.720
yep I did. Jeremia started laughing like an So then

480
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:04.519
I got to sit down on the bed and I

481
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:07.200
had to draw. It was every thing I could do.

482
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:10.119
I had to grab my dog by his neck because

483
00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:12.880
he's not on the leash or collar and dragging to

484
00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:16.279
the room, and it was really hard. He did not

485
00:27:16.519 --> 00:27:19.039
well to His feet were like cemented to the floor too.

486
00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:23.000
And I get him in the room and he's sitting

487
00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:25.599
there right by me. He's still growling, and I just

488
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:27.880
start praying as loud as I could. I said, in

489
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:30.000
the name of Jesus, you have to leave here. In

490
00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:32.880
the name of Jesus, this is holy ground, this is

491
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:35.319
my house. You are not welcome here. You need to leave.

492
00:27:36.119 --> 00:27:38.200
As soon as I start praying that, it was like

493
00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:42.759
deafening quiet. It was just it was already quiet, but

494
00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:45.920
it went It's so hard to I wish there was

495
00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:49.680
different words to explaining it went quieter. It almost hurts

496
00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:54.200
your ears, and went so quiet. And after that was nothing,

497
00:27:54.599 --> 00:27:57.680
and there was no way that I was going to sleep.

498
00:27:57.720 --> 00:27:59.359
I just laid there all night and I'm like, how

499
00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:02.680
can they It was like a thought it was not

500
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:07.000
my own, that came deep from within the middle of

501
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:10.839
my head, like white, and the sefuge drilled right down

502
00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:13.200
to the middle of my head. That's where that thought

503
00:28:13.440 --> 00:28:16.680
voice came from. And if you asked me to describe

504
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:19.640
the voice, like if it was a male female, I

505
00:28:19.720 --> 00:28:22.720
can't because it didn't have a male or female tone.

506
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:25.680
It was a thought that was put into my head

507
00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:29.720
that said that. And they have talked to me three

508
00:28:29.799 --> 00:28:34.039
or four times now, very short, but they have. They've

509
00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:36.599
talked to me. That next day, of course, my husband

510
00:28:36.640 --> 00:28:38.960
came home and I told him, and then I told

511
00:28:39.039 --> 00:28:41.079
him what happened. He's glad we still have a door

512
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:42.920
in the house. Let's talk. What's it good and saying?

513
00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:45.680
And I said, this whole bigfoot thing has really got

514
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:48.680
to me. I said, let's do a test. Let's if

515
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:51.640
they're really real. We had just he brought back a

516
00:28:51.680 --> 00:28:54.640
giant watermelon he got from South Carolina. This thing was

517
00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:57.640
so big it lost have weighed fifty pounds, the biggest

518
00:28:57.680 --> 00:28:59.359
thing I've ever seen in my life. We cut it

519
00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:01.720
in half. It was just the two of us. We

520
00:29:01.759 --> 00:29:04.119
couldn't even eat half. And I said, you know what,

521
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:06.400
it's cut in half, Let's take it back to the

522
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:09.200
edge of the woodline behind the house. I'm gonna set

523
00:29:09.200 --> 00:29:12.839
it in this dirt spot. There was nothing there and

524
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:16.720
it's like March now, excuse me. And it was getting

525
00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:20.079
a little bit warm. So I said, I'm gonna set

526
00:29:20.119 --> 00:29:23.759
this watermelon on this dirt spot, and we waited to

527
00:29:23.880 --> 00:29:27.160
the edge of dark light five minutes before it got dark,

528
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:30.519
and I said, as soon as it gets light, we'll

529
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:33.559
get up in the morning, like the second it's daylight

530
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:40.599
and go and see what's happened with this watermelon. So sorry.

531
00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:44.480
So I carry this watermelon out there, and it took

532
00:29:44.519 --> 00:29:49.640
two arms wrapped around this thing, and it was really juicy,

533
00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:53.680
but if unless you tipped it sideways, there really wasn't

534
00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:56.759
any juice running out. So I set it on the

535
00:29:56.759 --> 00:29:59.960
spot the edge of the woodline where I had seen

536
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:05.759
this bigfoot. So the next morning and we watched and

537
00:30:05.799 --> 00:30:08.440
we waited till it got dark, set it there, and

538
00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:10.880
then it got dark and we went to bed. And

539
00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:14.000
the next morning, the second we get up sometimes it

540
00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:17.359
is always gets up before daylight. And he gets me

541
00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:20.599
up and we wait till it turns daylight and we

542
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:23.880
look and I'm like, I don't think it's there, and

543
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:26.200
I and he's and I'm like, please don't leave me,

544
00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:28.519
just stay on the back deck. He's on the back

545
00:30:28.559 --> 00:30:31.799
deck watching and I walk over there. The watermelon's gone.

546
00:30:32.200 --> 00:30:36.359
There is no there's no rhymes, there's no seeds, there's

547
00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:39.319
no nothing. Now, if it was a deer or any

548
00:30:39.400 --> 00:30:42.160
other animal. It could have chewed it up right there.

549
00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:45.480
The ground would have been a wet mess there, wooded.

550
00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:48.839
The ground was so dry you could have picked it

551
00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:51.880
up and it had been like sand. There wasn't one seed, one,

552
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:58.559
no trace of that watermelon anywhere. And not only that, okay,

553
00:30:58.559 --> 00:31:02.680
say some animal drug it off. They had hands and

554
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:04.759
they just drug it off, or they ate the whole

555
00:31:04.759 --> 00:31:09.559
thing right there. But there was two, not one, but

556
00:31:09.640 --> 00:31:14.000
two snake skins put in its place, and they were

557
00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:18.000
stretched out and they were laid side by side, and

558
00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:19.920
they were one was about four feet long and the

559
00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:22.279
other one was about six feet long, and they were

560
00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:25.920
laying right there in the same spot of the watermelon.

561
00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:29.400
And I'm like I was just standing there frozen, and

562
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:32.440
the husband starts yelling, carry you, okay, you okay because

563
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:36.519
I wasn't moving, and he's hey, hey, and I was

564
00:31:36.599 --> 00:31:40.559
just like, yeah, I'm thinking, yes, they this is really there.

565
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:45.200
This is if the other experiences didn't already confirm it, yeah,

566
00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:48.599
this confirmed it. I carried them in and he was like,

567
00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:50.559
what is that? And I told him. He was like,

568
00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:54.240
oh my gosh. So I just I didn't know what

569
00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:57.240
to do. So I put the snake skins back out

570
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:01.119
back out there, and I just said, thank you whatever

571
00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:03.880
I'm seeing or talking to the woods. And this is

572
00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:06.039
not the first time I said that. I'm like, I'm

573
00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:08.720
talking to the woods. What is my life become. I'm

574
00:32:08.759 --> 00:32:11.079
there talking to the woods. I said, I know you

575
00:32:11.119 --> 00:32:14.119
guys are around, I can feel you. Thank you for the

576
00:32:14.160 --> 00:32:16.920
snake skins, but I'm going to leave them out here

577
00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:21.720
in nature. And I walked back in the house. So

578
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:25.400
the next day I go into town and it's eight

579
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:28.799
o'clock in the morning. I wanted to get to the

580
00:32:28.839 --> 00:32:33.079
grocery store for it got too crowded. And I get

581
00:32:33.119 --> 00:32:35.839
to the end of my road, and if you go left,

582
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:38.359
there's a bridge right there that goes over the Noah

583
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:43.079
Chucky River and that goes down to the Wildlife Refuge

584
00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:46.640
the other way the other end of my road. So

585
00:32:46.680 --> 00:32:50.759
the river's right there, and it'll take you into Morris

586
00:32:51.119 --> 00:32:54.799
Morristown m R R. I S T O W N.

587
00:32:55.519 --> 00:32:58.279
Where I've heard a one podcast there was a sighting

588
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:02.200
at Panther Creek State Park. Somebody said, so that's not

589
00:33:02.279 --> 00:33:05.200
too far from that area. You make a right, it

590
00:33:05.240 --> 00:33:10.400
takes you into town about five miles away. So of

591
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:12.519
course I got my service dog, and he's looking at

592
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:15.680
the trees and he's growling, and I'm like, and I look,

593
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:17.720
and I'm like, what, buddy, what do you see? A squirrel?

594
00:33:17.839 --> 00:33:21.240
What is it? He hates squirrels. So I said, there's

595
00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:23.640
nothing there. I don't see anything, and he is locked

596
00:33:23.640 --> 00:33:25.920
onto something and he stared at it. I'm like, I

597
00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:29.680
don't see anything, there's nothing there. Cast up and then

598
00:33:29.680 --> 00:33:33.200
all of a sudden, I looked down out the passage seat.

599
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:36.680
This was on the ground on the passenger side. So

600
00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:39.279
I leaned. I don't even know how some of these

601
00:33:39.319 --> 00:33:41.160
things that I don't even know how I knew, but

602
00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:43.759
I just did. I put the car and park and

603
00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:46.240
I almost got out, thank god I didn't. And I

604
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:49.039
leaned over to the passenger side looked on the ground

605
00:33:49.519 --> 00:33:51.839
and I think I sent you pictures. If I didn't,

606
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:56.440
I will, I've got them. I saw deer legs. And

607
00:33:56.519 --> 00:33:59.480
the crazy thing about deer legs. Any hunters will know this,

608
00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:02.799
you do not nobody. There's no need to do that.

609
00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:05.480
It's not how you skin a deer, and that they

610
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:09.440
were snapped off at the knees, not up where the

611
00:34:09.480 --> 00:34:13.679
shoulder is but snapped off. And the reason I say

612
00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:17.920
snapped off and twisted off is because you can literally

613
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:22.400
see one piece of bone sticking up about two inches

614
00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:25.760
higher than the other, and it looks like a serrated

615
00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:29.760
edge knife on the bone, and the skin is twisted

616
00:34:29.920 --> 00:34:32.360
round and round like if you ring out a towel,

617
00:34:32.920 --> 00:34:36.360
and I'm like, what the heck. And then a little

618
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:40.840
ways away I saw a spine, just the spine, and

619
00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:43.800
there was nothing on it, like not. It wasn't like

620
00:34:43.840 --> 00:34:46.480
a dried up old spine, like there just wasn't any

621
00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:49.400
neat on it. And I'm like, what the heck. So

622
00:34:49.519 --> 00:34:52.880
I'm like, okay, somebody hit a deer. So I'm looking around.

623
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:57.039
I don't see any blood, and I'm like, okay, maybe

624
00:34:57.519 --> 00:35:01.039
the coyotes drug it down the big giant there's giant

625
00:35:01.079 --> 00:35:04.679
boulders on the left where the river is that are,

626
00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:07.760
oh gosh, the size of the of a hood of

627
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:11.000
your truck boulders. And I'm like, okay, maybe they drug

628
00:35:11.039 --> 00:35:14.000
it over the side. And I'm looking and I don't

629
00:35:14.039 --> 00:35:18.239
see any blood, anybody, nothing. And then I get ready

630
00:35:18.280 --> 00:35:21.559
to get out and a rock hits my truck, not

631
00:35:21.679 --> 00:35:24.239
a big rock, maybe the size of all like a

632
00:35:24.280 --> 00:35:26.519
golf vault. And it was a put a big dent,

633
00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:29.880
like a golf ball sized dent in the door, the

634
00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:35.000
same door that my rottweiler is at the window at growling.

635
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:39.159
Thank god I didn't break the window. And I heard that,

636
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:42.480
and then and he's still growling, and I and then

637
00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:45.119
I look at the deer legs again as I'm taking pictures,

638
00:35:45.519 --> 00:35:48.239
and I see one tiny little drop of blood come

639
00:35:48.239 --> 00:35:49.800
out of one of the end of the legs, and

640
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:54.800
I'm like, oh crap, this just happened. Because it's mostly

641
00:35:55.039 --> 00:35:58.119
all boning skin from the knees down. There's no meat,

642
00:35:58.280 --> 00:36:02.159
there's nothing, so for any for a drop of blood, well,

643
00:36:02.159 --> 00:36:05.400
a little drop to come out. This just happened. And

644
00:36:05.480 --> 00:36:08.920
this was early in the morning, so like before a

645
00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:12.199
little bit before eight o'clock or seven o'clock. And I'm like, oh, yeah,

646
00:36:12.320 --> 00:36:15.320
time to go. So I got the heck out of Yeah,

647
00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:16.960
I got the heck out of Dodge. I was not

648
00:36:17.079 --> 00:36:18.800
and I almost got out of the truck. I'm so

649
00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:21.679
glad I didn't because I don't want to end up

650
00:36:21.960 --> 00:36:25.840
one of these missing people. So I'm driving down this road.

651
00:36:26.559 --> 00:36:29.039
Oh gosh, a quarter a mile from there, and you

652
00:36:29.159 --> 00:36:34.000
have to drive in between those two the rock giant

653
00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:37.519
rock wall but just sheared off because it's part of

654
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:40.519
the Smoky Mountains and just like solid rock wall. And

655
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:43.519
you drive down this clunel of a country road of

656
00:36:43.639 --> 00:36:48.960
two rock walls and trees, and one of the rock

657
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:52.039
walls starts to gradually decline and that goes to the river.

658
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:55.280
The other one just stays a sheer rock wall, goes

659
00:36:55.320 --> 00:36:57.880
about twenty feet in the air, and all of a sudden,

660
00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:00.960
I hear and I'm going real slope because I'm scanning,

661
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:03.679
like looking everywhere. I'm like, there's gotta be a deer.

662
00:37:03.760 --> 00:37:05.840
There's gotta be a deer body, there's something. It's just

663
00:37:05.880 --> 00:37:09.079
this can't just can't be. And my dog's still growling.

664
00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:10.800
He's still growling. And all of a sudden, I hear

665
00:37:10.800 --> 00:37:13.360
in my head look up and I'm like what, And

666
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:15.880
I'm like, who the heck. I'm looking around, like who

667
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:20.039
said that? I don't have my radio on the bluechoth.

668
00:37:20.079 --> 00:37:22.199
I don't the Bluetooth and I don't have it does

669
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:23.960
but I don't know how to use it. The Bluetooth

670
00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:26.199
thing that you connected your vehicle, I don't know how

671
00:37:26.199 --> 00:37:30.639
to do all that. And look, there's nobody around, there's

672
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:33.719
nobody behind me. There's a soul in sight. So I

673
00:37:33.800 --> 00:37:36.480
stop in the road and I look up and I

674
00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:40.920
see a bigfoot standing on the cliff. Now the sun

675
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:43.440
is coming up, so the sun is that it's back,

676
00:37:43.880 --> 00:37:46.199
and it's standing in kind of I don't know if

677
00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:48.480
you've seen somebody getting ready to fight, or a box

678
00:37:48.599 --> 00:37:51.039
or a military and their arms are sticking out to

679
00:37:51.079 --> 00:37:53.320
the side, just a little bit away from their body,

680
00:37:54.000 --> 00:37:58.079
and they're like in a very alert position, a stance.

681
00:37:58.639 --> 00:38:02.280
And I could see the sun I'm like shining through

682
00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:05.599
its hair that was hanging off of its arms as

683
00:38:05.599 --> 00:38:08.360
it had its arms out to the side. And it

684
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:12.079
looked it did not look like the same one. This

685
00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:16.519
one was more orangey color, not as orange as a

686
00:38:16.519 --> 00:38:19.519
as an a ringing tang, but more orange, not as dark.

687
00:38:20.079 --> 00:38:25.119
And this one looked a lot more holped out, beefed up. Oh.

688
00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:27.360
It's hard to tell how tall it was because it

689
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:29.679
was on a twenty foot cliff, but it was a

690
00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:33.000
big son of a gullain. It was big. Oh, I'd

691
00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:36.840
say eight hundred pounds easily four and a half feet wide,

692
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:40.920
had big arms, jaunt looked like it looked like an

693
00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:46.119
old picture of Lueforigno, or like when they're all muscled out.

694
00:38:46.719 --> 00:38:49.400
And I said, and I knew that because I knew

695
00:38:49.400 --> 00:38:51.239
they talked to me in my head before I knew

696
00:38:51.280 --> 00:38:54.119
this was my chance. So I said in my head

697
00:38:54.199 --> 00:38:56.840
to it, for one a couple of reasons. One, I

698
00:38:56.880 --> 00:38:59.320
wanted to test to make sure that I wasn't one

699
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:03.079
hundred percent crazy and to see if it really was

700
00:39:03.119 --> 00:39:05.039
talking to me in my head, and if it was,

701
00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:06.840
is it can answer me. So I said in my

702
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:10.159
head to it, what are you? Are you a nephlum?

703
00:39:10.199 --> 00:39:13.480
Because like I said, I believe in the Lord in

704
00:39:13.719 --> 00:39:16.119
the Bible, and I read over my Bible and that's

705
00:39:16.119 --> 00:39:17.880
the only thing I could come up with where that

706
00:39:18.079 --> 00:39:22.480
even would I've mentioned anything that could remotely, in my mind,

707
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:24.760
in my opinion, be like them. And I said, are

708
00:39:24.800 --> 00:39:27.039
you an fhlum? Are you an fhlum? And it would

709
00:39:27.079 --> 00:39:29.000
not answer me. It made me so mad, It's said,

710
00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:32.119
but it didn't answer that question. But it did answer me.

711
00:39:32.599 --> 00:39:36.880
And it said in the same exact thought in my head,

712
00:39:37.519 --> 00:39:39.440
very slow, in the same way, and it said it

713
00:39:39.559 --> 00:39:42.400
just I'll never forget this is burned in my brain.

714
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:44.599
I don't care if I live to be a thousand

715
00:39:44.679 --> 00:39:47.440
years old, so I hope I don't, but I'll never

716
00:39:47.480 --> 00:39:53.280
forget it. It said there are many of us, some good,

717
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:59.559
some bad, just like people. And I'm like, okay, as

718
00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:01.440
she as I I heard that. I'm thinking, good, your phone,

719
00:40:01.480 --> 00:40:04.400
quick take picture. I looked down for a fraction of

720
00:40:04.440 --> 00:40:07.440
a second to get my phone, looked up it was gone,

721
00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:10.280
and I'm like, dang, ye, I missed it. Yeah, I

722
00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:12.920
missed the picture, but it did answer me back. But

723
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:17.840
it did not would nick purposely would not answer that question? Yes?

724
00:40:18.119 --> 00:40:22.599
And then the next night after that, I have something

725
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:25.280
called occipit on euralgia, which is like burning in the

726
00:40:25.280 --> 00:40:27.880
back of your head. Until my doctor got me on

727
00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:31.079
the right nerve medicine for that, I had to sleep

728
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:35.760
sitting up in the chair. And it's not like Xadax

729
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:38.679
or any kind of psychiatric medicines or anything like that.

730
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:41.800
I've never heard voices before in my head. I don't

731
00:40:41.880 --> 00:40:45.480
take antidepressants. I don't take any kind of medicines that

732
00:40:45.519 --> 00:40:48.920
would have made me heard any voices or where I've

733
00:40:48.920 --> 00:40:51.800
ever heard voices in my head ever, besides me talking

734
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:54.880
to myself, which I do a lot. But the next

735
00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:58.880
night we were sleeping in the living room and it

736
00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:02.159
was about seems to always be the same time between

737
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:06.079
two thirty, mainly three thirty, but between two thirty and

738
00:41:06.679 --> 00:41:11.320
four thirty fourish, and I heard this owl, except it

739
00:41:11.480 --> 00:41:14.800
wasn't an owl. It sounded like an owl with its

740
00:41:14.840 --> 00:41:19.960
mouth up to the megaphone. It was so ungodly loud.

741
00:41:20.599 --> 00:41:22.800
And the back of our house at the time had

742
00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:25.639
a little l shape in it, and it was back

743
00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:29.039
up beside the deck, and it was right beside the

744
00:41:29.079 --> 00:41:31.840
window where I was sleeping. It was so loud. I

745
00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:34.599
almost jumped out of my chair when I heard that, Jeremiah,

746
00:41:34.679 --> 00:41:38.320
it was just crazy loud. And then it did it

747
00:41:38.360 --> 00:41:41.960
two more times, and finally I woke my husband, like

748
00:41:42.000 --> 00:41:45.039
get out, let's look, and there it was gone, except

749
00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:48.199
and we did find this time, we found sixteen inch

750
00:41:48.280 --> 00:41:51.840
footprints in that same spot, but we only saw one

751
00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:58.400
footprint they had after that. The one of the next

752
00:41:58.519 --> 00:42:02.800
very weird situations we had, which all of this just

753
00:42:02.920 --> 00:42:06.000
kept happening, like they kept coming closer and closer to

754
00:42:06.039 --> 00:42:08.880
the house. The next day we had ceiling fans on

755
00:42:08.920 --> 00:42:12.800
the back deck and every time, okay, every time I

756
00:42:12.840 --> 00:42:14.519
went to put my two dogs out on the back

757
00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:18.280
deck just they're inside dogs, but just to get some stimulation,

758
00:42:18.480 --> 00:42:22.039
fresh air. Within five or ten minutes of being out there,

759
00:42:22.119 --> 00:42:24.599
I would hear think and I was like, what the

760
00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:27.000
heck is that? And they would get louder and harder,

761
00:42:27.159 --> 00:42:30.079
louder and harder, and then my dogs would start growling,

762
00:42:30.119 --> 00:42:33.400
and then they would start barking. Within twenty minutes, I'd

763
00:42:33.440 --> 00:42:35.519
have to bring them in, and the whole back deck

764
00:42:35.639 --> 00:42:38.280
had rocks all over it. They would throw rocks at

765
00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:42.320
the back deck because somehow my dogs can see them

766
00:42:42.559 --> 00:42:45.599
when I cannot see them, and they do not like

767
00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:49.360
the dogs at all out there. I went to take

768
00:42:50.559 --> 00:42:53.440
my dog out the next day. There was about two

769
00:42:53.559 --> 00:42:56.800
thirty in the afternoon, and there was not a soul around,

770
00:42:57.280 --> 00:42:59.840
and I walked back towards the creek, which is in

771
00:42:59.840 --> 00:43:02.079
the middle of the field. It's not like I'm deep

772
00:43:02.119 --> 00:43:04.800
and remote in the woods like Harley is very brave

773
00:43:04.880 --> 00:43:08.920
to be doing that. I'm telling you, I wouldn't do that. Nope, Nope,

774
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:11.920
sure wouldn't. So all of a sudden, this and I'll

775
00:43:11.960 --> 00:43:13.719
send you a picture. It's just a tree, but I'll

776
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:16.320
send you a picture of it if I haven't. It's

777
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:18.880
like this forty foot tall tree, and it's not a

778
00:43:18.920 --> 00:43:21.559
pine tree. There's no wind, there's no storm. It's a

779
00:43:21.599 --> 00:43:25.079
perfectly sunny day. There's not even a breeze. And then

780
00:43:25.079 --> 00:43:28.880
it as hot as hades outside, and all of a sudden, Jeremiah,

781
00:43:29.079 --> 00:43:32.320
I hear this whoo, and then I hear something answer back.

782
00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:35.039
And it happened so quick. I didn't even have time

783
00:43:35.079 --> 00:43:37.239
to I didn't even have any I didn't even have

784
00:43:37.320 --> 00:43:39.440
a pocket knifehone, he had not They're done, you did.

785
00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:42.239
I had nothing, not even my cell phone. And I'm like,

786
00:43:42.760 --> 00:43:45.079
and my dog and me just froze. And he's on

787
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:48.400
the leash, thank god. Oh yeah. Ever since then I

788
00:43:48.400 --> 00:43:51.119
didn't need to take him on a leash outside one

789
00:43:51.159 --> 00:43:53.440
there's nobody around and there's no traffic. But after that,

790
00:43:53.519 --> 00:43:56.360
I did, after the first sighting, and all of a sudden,

791
00:43:56.360 --> 00:44:01.679
this tree starts shaking so hard in front of us. Oh,

792
00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:04.119
I'm like fifteen feet from this tree, and this thing

793
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:08.559
is jerking, jerking back and forth like tug award, jerking

794
00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:12.119
so violently, and all of a sudden you can hear

795
00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:17.880
crick cracks, all these noises with a tree is being

796
00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:22.320
pushed over and broken in half from just a few

797
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:25.800
feet off the ground, and not no, not one other

798
00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:28.280
tree is moving, and all of a sudden, all these

799
00:44:28.400 --> 00:44:32.039
crows start squawking and screaming, and they all come flying

800
00:44:32.159 --> 00:44:34.880
all the woods, and the next thing you know, this

801
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:39.119
tree starts coming down right at me and my dog,

802
00:44:39.280 --> 00:44:43.400
like lan, I ran and which I got a bad knee.

803
00:44:43.400 --> 00:44:46.360
You got a knee replacement, and it's bad, and so

804
00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:48.639
my knee doesn't bend all the way and I can't run.

805
00:44:49.159 --> 00:44:53.079
So I'm trying to run without falling and pulling him

806
00:44:53.119 --> 00:44:56.400
because he's growling and barking and he doesn't want to move.

807
00:44:56.840 --> 00:44:58.519
And I'm trying to pull this one hundred and thirty

808
00:44:58.559 --> 00:45:01.159
pound dog and trying get get the heck out of there,

809
00:45:01.199 --> 00:45:04.039
back in the house. And before I barely made it

810
00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:06.840
out of the way, this whole tree comes down right

811
00:45:06.880 --> 00:45:08.880
in the middle, right in the middle of the field.

812
00:45:08.960 --> 00:45:12.719
I'm looking around, anybody see this, anybody Hello, Hello, And

813
00:45:12.760 --> 00:45:16.360
there's nobody. I'm like, of course, there's nobody. I took

814
00:45:16.400 --> 00:45:20.519
a couple pictures. I took a couple of pictures of that,

815
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:25.559
but they started throwing rocks at the house all night long.

816
00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:29.519
They would I have two inside cats, and they've done

817
00:45:29.559 --> 00:45:32.239
that at every place I live. Their famous thing to

818
00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:35.519
do is they do and they do the cats. And

819
00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:38.960
I do have to stop myself and say, nine years

820
00:45:38.960 --> 00:45:43.119
ago I was the one saying, listen to these people,

821
00:45:43.199 --> 00:45:46.599
how crazy they sound saying this stuff. Now I sound

822
00:45:46.639 --> 00:45:50.000
like the crazy one. I'm saying this stuff because it's real,

823
00:45:50.079 --> 00:45:53.800
it's really happening. They like to tap on the window

824
00:45:53.880 --> 00:45:58.440
at nighttime and the cats, when everybody's sleeping, we'll go

825
00:45:58.639 --> 00:46:01.679
tearing right across the house and they're ripping up the

826
00:46:01.719 --> 00:46:04.679
mini blind to get on the miniblinds, clinking and banging,

827
00:46:04.719 --> 00:46:06.280
and you're trying to sleep to get on the other

828
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:09.039
side of the miniblind to see, and they're tapping on

829
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:11.840
the screen of the window for the cats. And then

830
00:46:11.840 --> 00:46:13.920
when the cats get on the other side of the

831
00:46:13.960 --> 00:46:17.079
miniblind to see, then the bigfoots will go on the

832
00:46:17.159 --> 00:46:21.199
opposite side of the house and start tap pep. And

833
00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:23.760
I know this because when my cats started doing this,

834
00:46:23.920 --> 00:46:26.079
I'm like, what the heck, why are they running back

835
00:46:26.119 --> 00:46:28.920
and forth? I first I thought they were chasing each other.

836
00:46:28.960 --> 00:46:31.320
And then I thought it were bugs, and then I

837
00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:33.000
thought it was a moth, and then I thought there

838
00:46:33.039 --> 00:46:35.519
was something inside the house, and I went through everything

839
00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:37.519
and nope. I laid there awake one night and I

840
00:46:37.559 --> 00:46:41.719
heard it tapping, like with the fingernail tappened. It was

841
00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:45.239
like think, think, and then the cats will go tearing,

842
00:46:45.480 --> 00:46:47.639
but across to the other side of the house. And

843
00:46:47.679 --> 00:46:49.800
then when they get to the curtain and they look,

844
00:46:50.039 --> 00:46:51.719
then the bigfoots will go on the end of that

845
00:46:51.800 --> 00:46:54.679
and they'll do this all freaking night long, to where

846
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:58.000
you cannot even get any sleep. You can't even sleep

847
00:46:58.000 --> 00:47:00.760
because they do this all night long. And they were

848
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:05.039
doing that every single night. We walked down the railroad

849
00:47:05.079 --> 00:47:09.880
tracks like the following week, which literally low Country Road

850
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:12.400
in front of our house in Newport where we lived,

851
00:47:12.880 --> 00:47:15.039
and you walk and you jump on the railroad tracks

852
00:47:15.079 --> 00:47:18.280
and you walk right to the wildlife Refuge, which is

853
00:47:18.320 --> 00:47:22.639
not a little mile if that walk really nice all

854
00:47:22.880 --> 00:47:26.239
and closed in woods on both sides. The farther you

855
00:47:26.280 --> 00:47:29.400
walk down, the further it steers you away from the houses.

856
00:47:29.960 --> 00:47:32.000
So we got to this one section and I called

857
00:47:31.960 --> 00:47:36.079
it the boneyard because there's a one area that's very

858
00:47:36.719 --> 00:47:40.400
there's a big high embankment, probably I don't know, fifteen

859
00:47:40.440 --> 00:47:43.400
feet high, maybe higher than that, maybe twenty feet. You

860
00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:47.159
can't see anything, and the houses are way. You're like

861
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:50.760
three acres away with the houses and they can't see anybody.

862
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:53.079
It's the back of the houses. And then on the

863
00:47:53.159 --> 00:47:56.519
right side you're going towards the wildlife refugees. The water

864
00:47:56.599 --> 00:48:00.440
and the trees and swampy stuff. You can't see. There's nothing.

865
00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:03.519
There's nobody over there, and there's no houses over that

866
00:48:03.559 --> 00:48:06.960
way for miles, many miles the walk. We hear the

867
00:48:07.119 --> 00:48:10.599
I see it where I see this boneyard pile. We

868
00:48:10.679 --> 00:48:14.480
saw a raccoon, two or three dogs, because the collars

869
00:48:14.519 --> 00:48:17.280
were still laying. The collars that the dogs were wearing

870
00:48:17.320 --> 00:48:20.719
were laying with their names on them. A cat. It

871
00:48:20.840 --> 00:48:23.480
looked like some kind of big bird, like a I

872
00:48:23.519 --> 00:48:25.280
don't know if it was. I don't think there's pelicans

873
00:48:25.280 --> 00:48:28.760
around here, but like a big stort. Oh. Gray cranes,

874
00:48:28.800 --> 00:48:31.760
that's what they were. A couple of cranes were laying there,

875
00:48:31.800 --> 00:48:36.800
two or three possum. It looked like a bunch of reptiles,

876
00:48:36.880 --> 00:48:40.719
a whole bunch of oh, a whole bunch of turtle shells,

877
00:48:40.760 --> 00:48:44.679
probably thirty turtles turtle shells just left and they were

878
00:48:44.679 --> 00:48:48.199
all in this one five foot span, and I'm like,

879
00:48:48.360 --> 00:48:51.360
that is so weird, Like why are all these animal

880
00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:55.400
bones just in this one little spot right on the

881
00:48:55.400 --> 00:48:58.320
other side of the water, up against an embankment that

882
00:48:58.400 --> 00:49:01.639
you could clearly sit on and eat chow down, going

883
00:49:01.719 --> 00:49:05.360
man them buffet and nobody's around. That's so weird to me.

884
00:49:06.320 --> 00:49:10.679
And we walked down to the reserve and we get

885
00:49:10.679 --> 00:49:14.320
down there and look around, and on the way back

886
00:49:15.039 --> 00:49:20.559
we heard something that sounded like like a din I

887
00:49:20.599 --> 00:49:23.440
don't want to say it, like a dinosaur, like if

888
00:49:23.480 --> 00:49:25.000
I just want I can't remember the name of that

889
00:49:25.119 --> 00:49:28.119
Jurassic Park, like the dinosaurs running and you can hear

890
00:49:28.199 --> 00:49:32.119
the ground like boom boom, like thumping. It was doing

891
00:49:32.239 --> 00:49:35.760
like that. You could actually Now we're not close. We're

892
00:49:35.760 --> 00:49:38.840
all on the railroad tracks. This is down a little

893
00:49:38.920 --> 00:49:42.039
ten foot embankment that it evens out to the trees

894
00:49:42.719 --> 00:49:45.719
that go into the reserve. So we're oh, at least

895
00:49:45.760 --> 00:49:49.719
thirty forty feet away from where this is happening. And

896
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:52.880
all of a sudden, it sounds like somebody literally drove

897
00:49:53.000 --> 00:49:57.480
a freaking dump truck into a tree. You're sash the

898
00:49:57.559 --> 00:50:02.000
whole tree, the leaves works floating off. You look up

899
00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:04.880
in the sky and there's leaves like flying up into

900
00:50:05.000 --> 00:50:07.599
the air, up in the up towards the sky. The

901
00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:11.000
tree exploded like it got hit so hard, and the

902
00:50:11.039 --> 00:50:14.559
whole tree comes down. And it was windy that day,

903
00:50:14.960 --> 00:50:18.440
but seven mile an hour winds, not seventy mile an

904
00:50:18.440 --> 00:50:22.800
hour winds. So I said to my husband, oh my gosh,

905
00:50:22.840 --> 00:50:25.599
what was that. He's, oh, let's just keep walking, don't

906
00:50:25.599 --> 00:50:27.480
worry about I'm like, don't worry about it. What is

907
00:50:27.559 --> 00:50:31.079
wrong with you? And he's that's nothing, And he said

908
00:50:31.159 --> 00:50:33.920
later on he was just trying not to scare me too.

909
00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:36.920
Eight for that, buddy, that's way too that's that that's

910
00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:42.320
already passed. So we walk a little further and the

911
00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:46.280
same thing again. You could literally hear something running all

912
00:50:46.480 --> 00:50:49.920
on the ground and the same thing hits a tree, boomed,

913
00:50:50.760 --> 00:50:54.119
lean exploding everywhere a tree comes down. It was chasing

914
00:50:54.239 --> 00:50:57.719
us on the ground and then like jumping into trees

915
00:50:57.719 --> 00:51:00.559
and hitting the trees with such force because this thing

916
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:02.920
was so big and strong. The whole tree was coming

917
00:51:02.960 --> 00:51:06.440
down and I only a pine tree, I mean like

918
00:51:06.480 --> 00:51:09.559
a small oak tree or maple tree twenty foot high,

919
00:51:09.639 --> 00:51:13.400
thirty foot high tree, like a normal size big tree

920
00:51:13.440 --> 00:51:16.400
you have in your yard coming down. And we got

921
00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:20.119
back to the house and as we're almost back, it

922
00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:23.840
was the edge of dark, almost seven o'clock at night,

923
00:51:24.360 --> 00:51:27.440
and all of a sudden, we heard something coming and

924
00:51:27.480 --> 00:51:29.840
it sounded like a bunch of vehicles. But we couldn't

925
00:51:29.840 --> 00:51:32.360
figure out where they were coming from because we had

926
00:51:32.400 --> 00:51:35.119
just been down to the wildlife reserve and there was

927
00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:38.400
only one way in and one way out our road.

928
00:51:39.119 --> 00:51:41.760
We would have heard them or seen them, and we

929
00:51:41.880 --> 00:51:44.280
kept hearing them coming here like it seemed like it

930
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:47.079
was lasting forever, and all of a sudden and we're

931
00:51:47.119 --> 00:51:48.920
on the edge of the road. Now. We got off

932
00:51:48.960 --> 00:51:52.199
the railroad tracks, walked across those spot of grass to

933
00:51:52.280 --> 00:51:55.280
get to the road, and we're like almost in front

934
00:51:55.320 --> 00:51:59.679
of our house. And if you were in front of

935
00:51:59.719 --> 00:52:02.199
our shed, go past our house a little ways, there's

936
00:52:02.280 --> 00:52:05.119
like a sharp turn and then you can go down

937
00:52:05.280 --> 00:52:08.400
My husband's whatever it is, it's getting closer. He has

938
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:10.000
the one dog in a leash, and I have my

939
00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:14.199
dog in a leash, and we turn around it before

940
00:52:14.239 --> 00:52:17.440
you know it, there was I don't remember either six

941
00:52:17.559 --> 00:52:21.800
or seven totally blacked out jeeps. I don't know. He

942
00:52:21.840 --> 00:52:24.559
didn't he said. My husband said. They weren't full jeeps.

943
00:52:24.559 --> 00:52:27.039
They were some kind of off road on road vehicle.

944
00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:31.880
They had hardtops and they had the whole entire thing

945
00:52:32.000 --> 00:52:35.880
was black black everywhere. The windows were blacked out. You

946
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:38.239
couldn't the windshield, you couldn't even see who was in

947
00:52:38.239 --> 00:52:40.280
the You couldn't even see who was in there. They

948
00:52:40.320 --> 00:52:43.199
had no tags on him. There was one the front

949
00:52:43.280 --> 00:52:46.679
vehicle had a little tiny tag that said g OVT.

950
00:52:47.199 --> 00:52:49.440
And the only reason I saw that is because it

951
00:52:49.559 --> 00:52:53.199
almost mowed me down. Oh. They were doing like forty

952
00:52:53.239 --> 00:52:55.920
something miles an hour and they would have run me

953
00:52:56.039 --> 00:52:58.719
right over. They did not care. They were on the way,

954
00:52:58.719 --> 00:53:02.079
they were driving. They were all two feet from each

955
00:53:02.119 --> 00:53:05.079
other's bumper, all six or seven of them. I don't

956
00:53:05.079 --> 00:53:08.079
even know how they drove like that without hitting each other.

957
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:10.280
But they were getting it and they were coming out

958
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:13.119
of the Wildlife Reserved, and my husband had said, don't

959
00:53:13.159 --> 00:53:15.400
forget to tell him about the shooting, and I'm like, okay.

960
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:21.000
So after they started getting close, I'm on the edge

961
00:53:21.000 --> 00:53:23.199
of the road. I'm figured, Okay, they'll just move over

962
00:53:23.360 --> 00:53:25.519
just a little bit to go. Nope, nope, they were

963
00:53:25.519 --> 00:53:28.599
gonna mow me right down. My husband literally took his

964
00:53:28.760 --> 00:53:31.280
arms as hard as they couldn't shoved me into a

965
00:53:31.400 --> 00:53:34.199
bush with the dog, and of course the dogs hooked

966
00:53:34.199 --> 00:53:36.880
in my arm, so me and the dog were flying

967
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:39.039
into the bush. Had he not done that, they would

968
00:53:39.039 --> 00:53:41.599
have bring me right over. And he was like, those

969
00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:44.519
were some kind of military vehicles. And I'm like, how

970
00:53:44.519 --> 00:53:46.280
do you know he's because I saw the first time?

971
00:53:46.400 --> 00:53:48.239
Did you see it? And I'm like, Dad, as I

972
00:53:48.320 --> 00:53:50.920
was flying onto the ground, he's carry. If I didn't

973
00:53:50.920 --> 00:53:52.719
push you, they weren't moving, they would have run you

974
00:53:52.800 --> 00:53:55.159
right over. I'm like, could you see who it was?

975
00:53:55.239 --> 00:53:58.960
He's no, they were all completely blacked out. And I'm like,

976
00:53:59.000 --> 00:54:00.760
how did they get in there? Like, I have no

977
00:54:00.840 --> 00:54:03.719
idea because we just walked this road and there's one

978
00:54:03.760 --> 00:54:07.360
way in and one way out, and I have no idea.

979
00:54:07.760 --> 00:54:10.079
We're getting ready to go in the house after I

980
00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:12.280
get out of the bush, and we're getting ready to

981
00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:13.559
go to the house, and all of a sudden, we

982
00:54:13.599 --> 00:54:17.719
hear automatic gunfire, and then we hear some kind of

983
00:54:17.760 --> 00:54:24.320
it sounded like rocks clacking or some I can't do it,

984
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:28.119
but some men that have big hands can slap their

985
00:54:28.159 --> 00:54:31.559
hands together real hard of cupped and make us like

986
00:54:31.639 --> 00:54:37.519
a clocking sound. And we heard we would hear automatic gunfire,

987
00:54:38.199 --> 00:54:41.599
and then we hear it sounded like rocks clocking or

988
00:54:41.639 --> 00:54:45.039
there or somebody smacking their hands together, like probably rocks

989
00:54:45.039 --> 00:54:47.280
because it was so loud. I don't even know where

990
00:54:47.320 --> 00:54:49.119
it was coming from because it was echoing off the

991
00:54:49.159 --> 00:54:55.519
woods everywhere. And then we heard three really loud, long

992
00:54:55.840 --> 00:55:02.880
drawn out wall like that but way loud. I can't

993
00:55:02.920 --> 00:55:07.840
even do it, kind of screechy from the railroad truck side,

994
00:55:07.880 --> 00:55:11.880
the wildlife reserve side, and then behind us behind our

995
00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:15.519
house that goes into the mountains, which if you follow it,

996
00:55:15.599 --> 00:55:17.760
you can follow it all the way up into Gatlinburg

997
00:55:17.840 --> 00:55:21.280
to Smoky Mountains. And then another scream comes from back

998
00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:24.960
there in the automatic gunfire, and I'm like, it sounded Jeremia.

999
00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:26.639
It sound like we were in the middle of a

1000
00:55:26.639 --> 00:55:29.840
freaking war zone. And I'm like, what that, Oh my god,

1001
00:55:30.960 --> 00:55:33.880
right now, there's no neighbors, Like I said, nobody ever

1002
00:55:34.039 --> 00:55:37.199
was outside. There was nobody around ever. Everybody who lived

1003
00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:40.039
around there. They were just like super old and never

1004
00:55:40.119 --> 00:55:43.239
saw anybody, and if you did, they were taking their

1005
00:55:43.280 --> 00:55:45.360
little dog out. And we had a chance to see

1006
00:55:45.360 --> 00:55:48.559
somebody and talk to them and ask them anything. And

1007
00:55:48.599 --> 00:55:50.119
he was like, I don't know what's going on, but

1008
00:55:50.159 --> 00:55:51.599
we need to get we need to get in the

1009
00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:54.599
house like now. It was just it was crazy. It

1010
00:55:54.599 --> 00:55:57.840
sounded like a war zone going on out there. But

1011
00:55:58.039 --> 00:56:04.280
the Bigfoots they amped up a lot that following weekend,

1012
00:56:05.039 --> 00:56:08.760
right after the gun that whole scenario happened. My husband

1013
00:56:08.840 --> 00:56:10.639
was home and he was super tired. He'd been he'd

1014
00:56:10.719 --> 00:56:14.440
driven like sixty worked and he's a driver sixty hours

1015
00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:16.800
that week. So we had to go into town to

1016
00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:19.519
get something and I'm like, i'll drive. And I was

1017
00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:22.119
really tired too, and they shouldn't have been driving. But

1018
00:56:22.159 --> 00:56:25.000
I went to back up in the driveway and he is.

1019
00:56:25.360 --> 00:56:28.079
I have an SUV and he's in a small little

1020
00:56:28.199 --> 00:56:32.559
Nissan Coop. I looked in my rear view mirror and

1021
00:56:34.239 --> 00:56:36.079
he was parked in my spot.

1022
00:56:36.360 --> 00:56:39.159
Big for Society will be right back after these messages.

1023
00:56:55.199 --> 00:56:57.920
Everybody's got their own spots. That was my spot, his

1024
00:56:58.000 --> 00:57:01.360
spot whatever, he was parked too. Far over in the gravel.

1025
00:57:01.800 --> 00:57:04.719
So when I looked in my mirror real quick, I

1026
00:57:04.760 --> 00:57:06.960
thought that I was clear, But that's because I was

1027
00:57:07.000 --> 00:57:09.360
already too close. So I backed up on my hair crunch,

1028
00:57:10.199 --> 00:57:13.800
so I busted his headlight out, and Grant smashed into

1029
00:57:13.800 --> 00:57:17.480
the front of his car, cracked the fender, and it

1030
00:57:17.519 --> 00:57:19.920
was still drive the ball. It wasn't total or anything,

1031
00:57:20.280 --> 00:57:22.800
because you know, it was just slowly back in, but

1032
00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:28.639
it did put a two foot wide at the depth

1033
00:57:28.679 --> 00:57:32.280
of the basketball deep at least maybe a basketball and

1034
00:57:32.280 --> 00:57:35.599
a half deep depth into my truck dent in the

1035
00:57:35.639 --> 00:57:39.079
back corner, and two basketballs wide in the back corner

1036
00:57:39.119 --> 00:57:41.800
of my truck. I was so upset because I love

1037
00:57:41.920 --> 00:57:44.960
this SUV. It's an older one that's been the best

1038
00:57:45.039 --> 00:57:47.239
vehicle I've ever owned. So I got out and I

1039
00:57:47.280 --> 00:57:50.039
was like, oh my gosh, he's here. It's okay. So

1040
00:57:50.079 --> 00:57:51.840
I'm like, you can fix it, right, you can fix

1041
00:57:51.880 --> 00:57:54.360
it with like hair dryer. I've seen people do it.

1042
00:57:54.480 --> 00:57:58.679
He's notice this is like fiberglass. This is not like

1043
00:57:59.000 --> 00:58:02.719
cheap plastic. This is like twenty five hundred dollars worth

1044
00:58:02.760 --> 00:58:06.199
of damage. Say I can't fix this, no, I'm like,

1045
00:58:06.280 --> 00:58:09.679
oh no, and I kept saying, please, I want this undone.

1046
00:58:09.800 --> 00:58:13.440
I want to read you. Please, Lord, just make this undone. Lord. No.

1047
00:58:13.480 --> 00:58:15.960
I was so upset. So every day for a week

1048
00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:18.079
and I took my dogs out, I walked out there

1049
00:58:18.599 --> 00:58:20.239
and I had to walk right by, and I'm like,

1050
00:58:20.320 --> 00:58:23.480
come on, please, I want this undone. I'm so upset.

1051
00:58:23.559 --> 00:58:26.400
I love my truck. I didn't go anywhere the whole week.

1052
00:58:26.639 --> 00:58:31.320
It was fall, it was not hot. It was late September,

1053
00:58:31.880 --> 00:58:34.840
and he had to work on a Saturday, which is rare,

1054
00:58:35.039 --> 00:58:37.000
and they had a fall festival. So I'm like, I'm

1055
00:58:37.039 --> 00:58:39.280
gonna go into town the fall festival. Get out of

1056
00:58:39.320 --> 00:58:42.599
the house. Stop thinking about the stupid dent and a

1057
00:58:42.719 --> 00:58:45.000
giant dent in my truck. So I walked on the

1058
00:58:45.039 --> 00:58:49.760
truck and there's no dent, and I'm like what. So

1059
00:58:49.800 --> 00:58:51.519
I walk over and look at the other side and

1060
00:58:51.519 --> 00:58:54.159
I'm like, okay, No, it was on the passenger side.

1061
00:58:54.559 --> 00:58:58.079
My running board. I see this pile of white rocks

1062
00:58:58.519 --> 00:59:00.840
and they I don't know, I guess they're works. And

1063
00:59:00.920 --> 00:59:04.519
there was this little tiny flower just ahead of a flower,

1064
00:59:05.119 --> 00:59:08.840
like they're all over the yard, and there was the

1065
00:59:08.920 --> 00:59:11.760
flower was like purple, just ahead of the flower, sitting

1066
00:59:11.800 --> 00:59:13.880
on top of this white pile of rocks on the

1067
00:59:13.920 --> 00:59:16.760
running board, and they were shaped like a little pyramid,

1068
00:59:16.840 --> 00:59:21.559
maybe three inches wide three inches high, and I kept

1069
00:59:21.599 --> 00:59:23.719
looking which side was a dad Okay, no, it was

1070
00:59:23.760 --> 00:59:26.400
that side, and I just couldn't believe it. Some feeling

1071
00:59:26.480 --> 00:59:29.320
the truck with my hand, and it was smooth as

1072
00:59:29.440 --> 00:59:31.599
could be, the only way you could even tell there

1073
00:59:31.599 --> 00:59:34.119
had even been a dent there is the paint was

1074
00:59:34.159 --> 00:59:37.719
still cracked, a little line in the paint, but there

1075
00:59:37.920 --> 00:59:40.480
was completely smooth down. And then I'm like hack like.

1076
00:59:40.960 --> 00:59:43.519
So we gets home and I totally forgot about say

1077
00:59:43.519 --> 00:59:47.760
anything till the next day, Sunday, and it was I

1078
00:59:47.800 --> 00:59:50.119
think it was COVID time too. We were so we

1079
00:59:50.159 --> 00:59:52.639
were getting ready to watch church on TV, and I'm like, oh,

1080
00:59:52.679 --> 00:59:54.719
by the way, thank you for fixing my truck, and

1081
00:59:54.719 --> 00:59:57.360
he's I didn't know your truck was boken. I'm like, yeah,

1082
00:59:57.480 --> 01:00:01.119
the bumper, Remember I crashed into your car. He's carrying.

1083
01:00:01.239 --> 01:00:03.800
I didn't fix your truck. We don't have money for that.

1084
01:00:04.119 --> 01:00:06.719
But it's an older truck. It's not even worth spending that.

1085
01:00:07.239 --> 01:00:09.719
I'm like, yeah, just tell me the truth. What credit cards.

1086
01:00:09.760 --> 01:00:12.599
You put it on, he's I did. He let's go outside.

1087
01:00:13.159 --> 01:00:14.960
So he goes outside and he stands there and he

1088
01:00:15.000 --> 01:00:17.800
starts scratching his head and he starts laughing. I didn't

1089
01:00:17.840 --> 01:00:20.320
do this pretty much, only one way to explain this,

1090
01:00:20.960 --> 01:00:23.440
he's said, let's get this straight. He didn't drive anywhere

1091
01:00:23.440 --> 01:00:26.480
all week. Nope. You promise you didn't put it on

1092
01:00:26.519 --> 01:00:29.920
any credit card. Nope. And it wasn't hot, so the

1093
01:00:29.960 --> 01:00:32.639
heat couldn't have popped it half. All those were now,

1094
01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:36.639
so how does a dent like that pop itself out

1095
01:00:36.880 --> 01:00:42.000
completely smooth? And then that little pile of rocks and

1096
01:00:42.079 --> 01:00:45.760
flower was on there, and he looked looked up underneath there,

1097
01:00:45.800 --> 01:00:48.440
and he said he could see where there was a

1098
01:00:48.480 --> 01:00:51.960
palm print, the edge of a palm print, a big

1099
01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:54.960
one like he has normal He doesn't have giant hands,

1100
01:00:54.960 --> 01:00:57.039
he's got normal sized hands. But he said it was

1101
01:00:57.119 --> 01:01:00.000
like two and a half times bigger than his hands,

1102
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:02.400
and just the palm edge of a palm print underneath

1103
01:01:02.400 --> 01:01:07.960
the lip of that back fender. But the I guess

1104
01:01:08.000 --> 01:01:11.239
the happenings, as you want to call it, in Newport

1105
01:01:11.599 --> 01:01:14.840
happened were happening so much it was becoming to be

1106
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:18.280
daily to where I just couldn't take it anymore. I

1107
01:01:18.360 --> 01:01:21.480
wasn't getting any sleep. If you don't walk around, you

1108
01:01:21.519 --> 01:01:24.800
don't sleep, you can't think. There was just affecting everything.

1109
01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:25.880
And I'm like, I'm tired of you.

1110
01:01:26.039 --> 01:01:26.159
Oh.

1111
01:01:26.239 --> 01:01:28.880
I was walking. I like to walk down the road

1112
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:32.760
every day, walk my dog. And something I heard, somebody

1113
01:01:32.760 --> 01:01:36.000
calling it pacing you. I heard something pacing me. Ah,

1114
01:01:36.039 --> 01:01:38.519
about six foot up on the edge of the road,

1115
01:01:38.599 --> 01:01:40.599
little ridge line where the woods go all the way

1116
01:01:40.639 --> 01:01:42.719
down the side of the road. One side houses the

1117
01:01:42.760 --> 01:01:45.559
other side's woods. And every time I took a step,

1118
01:01:45.760 --> 01:01:48.519
it was falling. And I love to walk, so I

1119
01:01:48.519 --> 01:01:51.519
would hear crunch. I take a step, I hear crunch,

1120
01:01:51.599 --> 01:01:55.280
and I'm like so finally, And I knew that it

1121
01:01:55.360 --> 01:01:59.280
could read my mind because it happened with the door thing.

1122
01:01:59.760 --> 01:02:01.360
So I know if I was going to do something,

1123
01:02:01.480 --> 01:02:03.679
I had to do it quick and try to outsmart it.

1124
01:02:04.199 --> 01:02:05.880
So I went to act like I was going to

1125
01:02:05.960 --> 01:02:10.440
take a step down, except I stopped midway and it

1126
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:13.159
stepped all the way down and I spun around real

1127
01:02:13.239 --> 01:02:15.599
quick at the woods. Now I'm like three feet from

1128
01:02:15.599 --> 01:02:18.280
the woods. I should have been able to see this

1129
01:02:18.400 --> 01:02:21.079
thing because it was literally right there and I could

1130
01:02:21.119 --> 01:02:24.320
not see it and I don't know how, and I

1131
01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:27.719
turned around when it stepped down. I heard the footfall.

1132
01:02:27.920 --> 01:02:30.079
I felt it land on the ground and I heard

1133
01:02:30.119 --> 01:02:33.199
it clutch the ground and I turned around and I said, gotcha,

1134
01:02:33.920 --> 01:02:37.639
and it's it laughed, but it laughed for someone who's deaf,

1135
01:02:38.159 --> 01:02:40.559
they have a certain way of talking, like a tone

1136
01:02:40.599 --> 01:02:44.280
to their voice. It kind of laughed. I don't know,

1137
01:02:44.559 --> 01:02:47.320
very like that. The way it laughed, it was like

1138
01:02:48.760 --> 01:02:50.719
it was just it was a very strange laugh. And

1139
01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:54.480
I'm like, Okay, I'm going home. So I turned around

1140
01:02:54.480 --> 01:02:58.159
the way back home as fast as my latest could go.

1141
01:02:58.360 --> 01:03:01.800
So every time even walked, and they started following me

1142
01:03:02.079 --> 01:03:04.760
when I was walking, and I just got I knew

1143
01:03:04.800 --> 01:03:07.199
if they wanted to hurt me and grab me, they

1144
01:03:07.360 --> 01:03:10.320
definitely could have. But I was tired of being I

1145
01:03:10.360 --> 01:03:12.800
was tired of being scared because I didn't I don't

1146
01:03:12.840 --> 01:03:15.159
know what these things are. It is scary, and it

1147
01:03:15.239 --> 01:03:19.679
was very remote. There was nobody around and I was alone.

1148
01:03:20.119 --> 01:03:23.679
So there's I think one of the biggest last two

1149
01:03:23.679 --> 01:03:27.159
things that happened in Tennessee. I was doing the dishes

1150
01:03:27.599 --> 01:03:30.400
and it was sunny summer, and I looked out the

1151
01:03:30.440 --> 01:03:35.159
back window and I saw the classic shape of exactly

1152
01:03:35.199 --> 01:03:38.840
what a cutout of a big foot looks like walking. Now,

1153
01:03:38.880 --> 01:03:43.239
this is really mind blowing. Okay, imagine if you take

1154
01:03:43.440 --> 01:03:46.639
a piece of glass and you shave it down and

1155
01:03:46.639 --> 01:03:51.159
you make paper. I've seen this paper sold in stores

1156
01:03:51.199 --> 01:03:54.320
where kids wrapped their school books with it, and it's

1157
01:03:54.360 --> 01:03:58.199
almost like a prism color paper. It's got blues and

1158
01:03:58.239 --> 01:04:01.199
pinks and orange and purple and greens. The way you

1159
01:04:01.280 --> 01:04:03.440
moved the paper and the way the light hits it.

1160
01:04:04.119 --> 01:04:06.360
I saw I'm doing the dishes, and all of a sudden,

1161
01:04:07.719 --> 01:04:09.760
I just, I don't know, I felt that I needed

1162
01:04:09.800 --> 01:04:14.199
to look up. So I look up and I see

1163
01:04:14.440 --> 01:04:18.440
this bigfoot walk out. It's not even looking at me.

1164
01:04:18.880 --> 01:04:21.079
It comes out of the dark, and the only reason

1165
01:04:21.119 --> 01:04:23.119
I saw it is going to stepped out of that.

1166
01:04:23.519 --> 01:04:25.960
It was right inside the edge of the woodline, and

1167
01:04:26.000 --> 01:04:29.719
there was a fifteen foot spot where there was very sunny.

1168
01:04:29.800 --> 01:04:32.480
The sun was hitting this area, and then it went

1169
01:04:32.519 --> 01:04:36.360
back into the dark where it was daytime but dark

1170
01:04:36.400 --> 01:04:38.920
where the sun wasn't shining because of the leaf cover.

1171
01:04:39.559 --> 01:04:44.679
So I look up and I see this bigfoot step

1172
01:04:44.719 --> 01:04:49.679
out of the woodline it crossed over. I always called

1173
01:04:49.719 --> 01:04:53.119
it the gauntlet because there was a separation in the

1174
01:04:53.159 --> 01:04:57.800
mountains back there. There was fifteen foot wide, and I

1175
01:04:57.920 --> 01:04:59.920
used to go back there all the time and sit.

1176
01:05:00.159 --> 01:05:02.039
There was a creak and it set back there reading

1177
01:05:02.039 --> 01:05:05.960
the church was very peaceful until they ran me out

1178
01:05:05.960 --> 01:05:09.840
of there. I just I felt overwhelming anxiety and fear

1179
01:05:09.920 --> 01:05:12.519
back there and get out. I felt it so strong

1180
01:05:12.599 --> 01:05:15.559
where I got to be terrified to even go anywhere

1181
01:05:15.639 --> 01:05:18.320
near there, so I didn't. But I saw this thing

1182
01:05:18.440 --> 01:05:22.119
step out in the sunlight. When the sunlight hid it,

1183
01:05:22.719 --> 01:05:25.960
that's when its whole body looked like it was wrapped

1184
01:05:26.800 --> 01:05:30.880
in that kind of like paper like glass. But I

1185
01:05:30.920 --> 01:05:33.280
could see its arms swinging, and I could see the

1186
01:05:33.320 --> 01:05:37.159
outline of its body because it was against the dark

1187
01:05:37.280 --> 01:05:41.079
tree line in the background. And I'm like, what in

1188
01:05:41.239 --> 01:05:45.599
the heck, oh my gosh, I've seen it all now

1189
01:05:46.320 --> 01:05:48.760
and didn't even look at me. It just how it's

1190
01:05:49.239 --> 01:05:52.159
how it's from the shoulders, top of the shoulders, hunched

1191
01:05:52.199 --> 01:05:57.519
over forward, long arms swinging past its knees, just throwing,

1192
01:05:58.519 --> 01:06:02.440
just rolling on rolling across there. And the way it's

1193
01:06:02.519 --> 01:06:05.960
knees moved. Blew my mind too, because it's almost like

1194
01:06:06.760 --> 01:06:09.440
it's almost like I didn't even notice it's it picking

1195
01:06:09.519 --> 01:06:12.119
up its feet, but it had to be. It's just

1196
01:06:12.239 --> 01:06:17.639
kind of rolled, very smooth, very fluid, like when people walk,

1197
01:06:17.920 --> 01:06:20.639
your head kind of goes up and down. I didn't

1198
01:06:20.679 --> 01:06:23.440
see its head wasn't going up and down. Its body

1199
01:06:23.679 --> 01:06:28.679
was moving forward, but it was just very smooth, fluid, steady,

1200
01:06:28.760 --> 01:06:32.400
one level even even motion all the way across, and

1201
01:06:32.440 --> 01:06:35.719
then it just stepped back into where the sun wasn't shining,

1202
01:06:36.400 --> 01:06:39.000
and you just couldn't I just could not believe. I

1203
01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:41.920
couldn't believe what I was seeing. Oh this, I think

1204
01:06:41.960 --> 01:06:45.519
this is the last two things for happen that we

1205
01:06:45.519 --> 01:06:49.239
were in Finnase before just I wanted to leave because

1206
01:06:49.519 --> 01:06:53.039
I just got to be so frightened where it got

1207
01:06:53.119 --> 01:06:57.119
to be so bad Jeremiah that I actually bought and

1208
01:06:57.280 --> 01:07:01.039
put tinted up film window film in the front dining

1209
01:07:01.119 --> 01:07:05.079
room windows because during the daytime I would have the

1210
01:07:05.119 --> 01:07:08.400
front windows open and you could see inside the whole house.

1211
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:11.159
And I felt, and I knew it and I still

1212
01:07:11.199 --> 01:07:14.159
know it that they had one of them just like

1213
01:07:14.559 --> 01:07:17.480
watching me all day long. I felt it. I've never

1214
01:07:17.559 --> 01:07:19.639
felt that anywhere else I lived, and I got to

1215
01:07:19.679 --> 01:07:23.280
be so scared that I actually put up film where

1216
01:07:23.320 --> 01:07:26.400
you could see outside tent dark tint and you could

1217
01:07:26.440 --> 01:07:30.440
see outside and some sunlight could still get in, but

1218
01:07:31.119 --> 01:07:33.559
if you were outside, you couldn't see inside. And as

1219
01:07:33.559 --> 01:07:36.519
soon as I put that up, I felt like whatever

1220
01:07:36.679 --> 01:07:39.639
was out there was gone, wasn't standing. But I didn't

1221
01:07:39.679 --> 01:07:41.679
just pop it up in one day. I had been

1222
01:07:41.920 --> 01:07:45.199
this feeling for months, and I kept saying something to

1223
01:07:45.239 --> 01:07:48.760
my husband about it, and he said, the woods are

1224
01:07:48.800 --> 01:07:51.599
so thick over there across the road. This is where

1225
01:07:51.639 --> 01:07:54.280
the wildlife reserve. It is. If anything was in there,

1226
01:07:54.960 --> 01:07:59.000
we wouldn't know it. But oh, I'm sorry. Back up.

1227
01:07:59.039 --> 01:08:02.880
When we did go down there to the reserve, I

1228
01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:06.320
felt we found a bunch of little nest where these

1229
01:08:06.400 --> 01:08:10.599
like a whole bunch of reeds were like crisscrossed, woven

1230
01:08:10.679 --> 01:08:14.360
in together, and underneath of them were these soft, little

1231
01:08:15.199 --> 01:08:19.640
strong nest and they were right near the water, except

1232
01:08:20.159 --> 01:08:25.079
they were like gosh, six feet wide by six feet long,

1233
01:08:25.840 --> 01:08:31.840
and there was you could see tow tracks, but big

1234
01:08:32.119 --> 01:08:36.279
tow tracks, footprints and tow tracks, and they would just

1235
01:08:36.279 --> 01:08:40.840
showed up toes in the water. It was about four

1236
01:08:40.880 --> 01:08:43.920
feet of water and the water was pretty clear. Little

1237
01:08:44.000 --> 01:08:47.800
creek part the part of the reserve going into these

1238
01:08:47.880 --> 01:08:50.720
nests of some of those where I saw either those

1239
01:08:50.760 --> 01:08:55.199
pictures of these crisscross like nest looking things. And when

1240
01:08:55.239 --> 01:08:58.800
we were down there at the reserve, I saw found this.

1241
01:08:59.279 --> 01:09:02.239
We had a high when we got walked off the trail,

1242
01:09:02.479 --> 01:09:05.000
off the main path and walked into the woods a

1243
01:09:05.039 --> 01:09:07.840
little bit because it was fall and it was clear,

1244
01:09:07.840 --> 01:09:10.960
and really wasn't afraid of snakes at that time, and

1245
01:09:11.039 --> 01:09:14.399
I found this thing. It looked like a beaver dam. Now,

1246
01:09:15.159 --> 01:09:22.159
the crazy part is it was twelve feet high by oh,

1247
01:09:23.560 --> 01:09:27.880
twelve feet wide, No, maybe ten feet wide. I'd say

1248
01:09:27.920 --> 01:09:31.079
ten feet high by ten feet high, yeah, because that's

1249
01:09:31.119 --> 01:09:33.840
the size of our small route, our small bedroom. Yeah,

1250
01:09:34.079 --> 01:09:36.760
And it was huge. And my husband's, oh, that's probably

1251
01:09:36.760 --> 01:09:39.640
a beaver dam. I'm like, honey, the water's way over there.

1252
01:09:40.039 --> 01:09:43.000
Water doesn't even come over here. Beaver is not gonna

1253
01:09:43.000 --> 01:09:46.359
build a dam that big and not away from water.

1254
01:09:46.880 --> 01:09:50.159
So there was a tiny little opening in the front

1255
01:09:50.439 --> 01:09:53.760
and I'm like, I got my little keychain flashlight, I'm

1256
01:09:53.760 --> 01:09:57.520
gonna look in there, so dumb me. I poked my

1257
01:09:57.600 --> 01:10:00.600
head in there, and there's something in the back and

1258
01:10:00.640 --> 01:10:04.239
it started growling a growl that I know was not

1259
01:10:04.439 --> 01:10:07.600
the human growl, like nothing I've ever heard before. And

1260
01:10:07.640 --> 01:10:10.600
he heard it and he was like one, I'm like,

1261
01:10:10.720 --> 01:10:14.000
I can't run. I don't like, don't believe me. He's like,

1262
01:10:14.039 --> 01:10:15.880
all right, oh, let that he goes on. Let them

1263
01:10:15.880 --> 01:10:20.560
eat me first, Like thanks, that's true love. We got

1264
01:10:20.600 --> 01:10:22.600
the heck out of there. But I was as I

1265
01:10:22.640 --> 01:10:26.199
was trying to run away, I turned around and I snapped.

1266
01:10:26.239 --> 01:10:28.039
I think I got half a picture of it. I

1267
01:10:28.039 --> 01:10:29.640
don't know if I got a whole picture of it,

1268
01:10:30.039 --> 01:10:33.840
but the way the sticks were woven together, they were

1269
01:10:33.920 --> 01:10:37.800
not that's no no human. There wasn't even that many sticks.

1270
01:10:37.800 --> 01:10:40.239
It rail. It was just in the middle of the

1271
01:10:40.239 --> 01:10:44.000
wood you find like a hut like that, and the

1272
01:10:44.039 --> 01:10:47.560
hole inside was pitch black and it seemed to be

1273
01:10:47.640 --> 01:10:52.279
hollow inside. There was very bizarre. And then the next

1274
01:10:53.159 --> 01:10:56.479
morning I go to let I go to sit on

1275
01:10:56.520 --> 01:11:01.640
the back deck and give my morning reading, and I

1276
01:11:01.680 --> 01:11:04.680
opened the back deck and one of my fan blades.

1277
01:11:05.319 --> 01:11:06.800
I think it was okay you that before we had

1278
01:11:06.840 --> 01:11:09.319
fans on the back deck and they're like palm leaf

1279
01:11:09.359 --> 01:11:13.239
fans one of my fan blades, and I told my husband,

1280
01:11:13.279 --> 01:11:16.239
I said, I'm hearing this fans spinning at night, and

1281
01:11:16.239 --> 01:11:19.640
he's he's sometimes the mountain winds come like, I don't

1282
01:11:19.640 --> 01:11:22.039
think that's what it is. I said, I think they're

1283
01:11:22.039 --> 01:11:25.119
spin like really fast because I can hear it. And

1284
01:11:25.239 --> 01:11:30.399
those walls were paper thin, so I heard it spinning

1285
01:11:30.479 --> 01:11:33.159
and I kept hearing them spin for a while and

1286
01:11:33.800 --> 01:11:35.920
so and he's just the wind. So the next day,

1287
01:11:35.960 --> 01:11:39.520
after the situation, the park situation is where I found

1288
01:11:39.520 --> 01:11:45.159
that stuff, I went out there and the fan blade

1289
01:11:45.399 --> 01:11:50.239
is broken right snapped into Now the crazy part is

1290
01:11:50.319 --> 01:11:53.319
it's not snapped off where the screw is. When you

1291
01:11:53.399 --> 01:11:56.720
screw the fan blade, which looks like a palm leaf

1292
01:11:56.840 --> 01:12:01.159
into the the base, it's not broken there. It's broken

1293
01:12:01.319 --> 01:12:04.760
like right in the middle. Something grabbed it and spinning

1294
01:12:04.920 --> 01:12:08.560
it around to play with it and just was so strong.

1295
01:12:08.960 --> 01:12:11.840
It just it was snapped completely in two in a

1296
01:12:11.880 --> 01:12:17.119
place where it shouldn't even have been snapped. And I'm like,

1297
01:12:17.279 --> 01:12:21.840
thanks a lot, guys, appreciate it. So I went in

1298
01:12:21.960 --> 01:12:24.960
the house and I brought the fan blade in the

1299
01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:28.159
house and I came back out. I told my husband,

1300
01:12:28.239 --> 01:12:30.560
he's like, just put a thing back outside. I hadn't

1301
01:12:30.600 --> 01:12:32.479
even been in the house five minutes. I come back

1302
01:12:32.520 --> 01:12:35.600
out and there's this little tiny, like the palm of

1303
01:12:35.680 --> 01:12:40.560
my hand, woven together read like a wreath that was

1304
01:12:40.600 --> 01:12:45.600
made with sticks, not soft reeds, but like tiny little

1305
01:12:45.760 --> 01:12:48.039
bent some kind of bend double sticks. It was all

1306
01:12:48.079 --> 01:12:51.640
woven into a wreath, and those purple flowers were all

1307
01:12:51.680 --> 01:12:54.720
stuck in it, a whole bunch of them. And it's

1308
01:12:54.720 --> 01:12:59.399
sitting right in the chair where I had where I

1309
01:12:59.439 --> 01:13:01.560
always sat and did my read. And I had just

1310
01:13:01.600 --> 01:13:05.159
been out there and it wasn't there because I pulled

1311
01:13:05.159 --> 01:13:07.159
the chair out to do my morning read and it

1312
01:13:07.279 --> 01:13:10.119
wasn't And that wreath was not sitting there because it

1313
01:13:10.199 --> 01:13:13.720
was very noticeable. The chair was white, one one thing,

1314
01:13:14.279 --> 01:13:17.560
and this little wooden wreath is dark brown and purple flowers.

1315
01:13:17.600 --> 01:13:19.520
You can't miss it, and it was sitting right there.

1316
01:13:20.600 --> 01:13:24.439
We when I've heard people say how fast they moved

1317
01:13:25.319 --> 01:13:28.560
we were when we were eating dinner in Tennessee, we

1318
01:13:28.640 --> 01:13:32.119
went to we had our cat, We had one of

1319
01:13:32.119 --> 01:13:35.920
our extra bedrooms. These three bedrooms we turned into like

1320
01:13:35.960 --> 01:13:38.640
the catroom, their cat toys and cat tree and stuff.

1321
01:13:39.000 --> 01:13:41.000
So I said, we were sitting there on TV. We

1322
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:43.720
were eating dinner on TV trays, and they said, did

1323
01:13:43.720 --> 01:13:47.159
you shut the cat room mini blind? It's dark? But

1324
01:13:47.520 --> 01:13:49.520
I don't let them looking in the house. And he

1325
01:13:49.600 --> 01:13:51.439
knew what I was talking about, and he was like,

1326
01:13:51.680 --> 01:13:54.079
I don't know why. I said, because we're being looked

1327
01:13:54.079 --> 01:13:56.560
at right now. I can feel it. And we both

1328
01:13:56.600 --> 01:13:59.920
turned our heads and at the exact same time. Oh,

1329
01:14:00.159 --> 01:14:02.239
he said, if he needs that. My husband said, if

1330
01:14:02.239 --> 01:14:04.239
he needs a sign anything to talk to you, he

1331
01:14:04.239 --> 01:14:06.840
would be glad to tell you the stuff he's seen

1332
01:14:06.880 --> 01:14:11.000
and experienced two with me and on his own since

1333
01:14:11.239 --> 01:14:15.399
we since he's been we've been together. But we both

1334
01:14:15.399 --> 01:14:17.960
turned our heads at the same time. And as soon

1335
01:14:18.000 --> 01:14:21.840
as I did, I saw it was standing. Now a

1336
01:14:21.920 --> 01:14:26.760
normal sized window is what probably four feet wide, and

1337
01:14:26.800 --> 01:14:31.039
it was a normal size window, probably knee height from

1338
01:14:31.079 --> 01:14:33.359
the bottom of the window would be where your knee

1339
01:14:33.399 --> 01:14:36.079
would be, where the bottom of the window would start,

1340
01:14:36.119 --> 01:14:38.239
and just go up. We both looked and it was

1341
01:14:38.279 --> 01:14:42.199
standing sideways. If it had been standing straight on, it

1342
01:14:42.239 --> 01:14:45.359
would have blocked out the whole entire window. That's how

1343
01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:48.680
wide it was. It was standing sideways and almost blocked

1344
01:14:48.680 --> 01:14:52.039
out the whole window. And we could see, yep, that

1345
01:14:52.199 --> 01:14:56.840
big shoulders, had a round head. No like point on

1346
01:14:56.880 --> 01:14:59.760
the head or anything like that. No neck. Never seen

1347
01:14:59.800 --> 01:15:03.279
an on any of them. It's like this giant fat

1348
01:15:03.520 --> 01:15:08.560
bowling bow heads stuck on these massive shoulders. And it

1349
01:15:08.760 --> 01:15:12.279
saw us, and it was black. It was dark outside,

1350
01:15:12.319 --> 01:15:15.680
though we could not see any facial features. We just

1351
01:15:15.720 --> 01:15:19.520
saw its body and it saw us. And it moved

1352
01:15:20.000 --> 01:15:23.960
so fast, how fast it moved. I was sat there

1353
01:15:24.439 --> 01:15:26.640
and I'm like, the only the best way to explain

1354
01:15:26.880 --> 01:15:29.439
stuff to people, in my mind is to give them

1355
01:15:29.640 --> 01:15:33.600
something to compare it to. Visually, it moved and this

1356
01:15:33.680 --> 01:15:36.880
is the and I've seen it move twice as fast

1357
01:15:36.880 --> 01:15:39.439
as the humming bird. If you've ever seen a humming

1358
01:15:39.479 --> 01:15:42.159
bird at the feeder before, that's how fast they move.

1359
01:15:42.800 --> 01:15:46.600
So when people say they were running ungodly fast, and

1360
01:15:46.920 --> 01:15:49.920
it was so, that's yeah, that's how fast they can move.

1361
01:15:50.359 --> 01:15:52.920
So if one runs by you or is moving in

1362
01:15:52.960 --> 01:15:55.960
your in like your periphial vision, you blink, oh, yeah,

1363
01:15:56.000 --> 01:15:58.600
you could miss it easily if they were around you

1364
01:15:58.720 --> 01:16:03.039
easily miss it if you weren't aware weren't aware of that.

1365
01:16:04.079 --> 01:16:05.960
And I keep saying this, but this is the last

1366
01:16:05.960 --> 01:16:10.239
thing that I can remember that happened in Tennessee. Right

1367
01:16:10.319 --> 01:16:14.079
the week the week before night before we are moving.

1368
01:16:14.760 --> 01:16:17.520
We were laying in bed. Like I said, these walls

1369
01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:20.880
were paper thin. If my husband I was outside walking

1370
01:16:20.960 --> 01:16:22.199
up to the front of the house, and if my

1371
01:16:22.279 --> 01:16:24.439
husband was snoring, I would be able to hear him

1372
01:16:24.479 --> 01:16:28.079
snoring outside the window. That's how thin these walls were.

1373
01:16:28.600 --> 01:16:32.880
So our headboard of our bed was right up against

1374
01:16:32.960 --> 01:16:36.159
the wall where we would park, and there's a little

1375
01:16:36.800 --> 01:16:39.800
gravel there was just like a little pea gravel lined

1376
01:16:39.840 --> 01:16:42.880
by loan timbers. And then it goes to the back

1377
01:16:43.359 --> 01:16:46.039
field where I saw the big foot in the mountains.

1378
01:16:46.600 --> 01:16:50.520
They would cross over from the river the wildlife reserve

1379
01:16:50.800 --> 01:16:55.039
and then go into the mountains behind our house, which

1380
01:16:55.640 --> 01:17:00.520
goes all into deep woods into the smokies. Would cross

1381
01:17:00.600 --> 01:17:02.920
back and forth. When it was about three thirty in

1382
01:17:02.960 --> 01:17:05.000
the morning, and again I'm laying there and all of

1383
01:17:05.039 --> 01:17:08.039
a sudden, I hear talking, and I'm like, who the

1384
01:17:08.079 --> 01:17:11.199
heck's standing outside our house. Three. First of all, none

1385
01:17:11.199 --> 01:17:13.439
of my family lived in the state where we were

1386
01:17:13.479 --> 01:17:15.720
the only family that lived in the state. All my

1387
01:17:15.800 --> 01:17:19.439
family lived in different states, including my kids. Nobody knew

1388
01:17:19.479 --> 01:17:23.000
where we lived except our neighbors, which we only talked

1389
01:17:23.239 --> 01:17:25.039
to two of them when we saw them when they

1390
01:17:25.079 --> 01:17:27.800
came out, so nobody knew where we lived. Nobody had

1391
01:17:27.840 --> 01:17:30.680
been to our house, so there was nobody that should

1392
01:17:30.680 --> 01:17:33.439
have been outside. And I'm like, who's talking some way

1393
01:17:33.439 --> 01:17:37.079
in there? And my husband's asleep because all it happened

1394
01:17:37.159 --> 01:17:39.760
so fast. Sometimes you don't have time to wake up

1395
01:17:40.000 --> 01:17:43.800
somebody or do something. So I hear talking and it

1396
01:17:44.000 --> 01:17:48.199
reminded me of two little two grumlins because they were

1397
01:17:48.239 --> 01:17:53.520
like I checked the check back and then I hear

1398
01:17:53.520 --> 01:17:55.880
another one talking back to it. And I'm like, oh

1399
01:17:55.920 --> 01:17:57.920
my god, I can't believe you. I can't believe in

1400
01:17:57.960 --> 01:18:03.079
me hearing this. It was just so and the voice, oh,

1401
01:18:03.079 --> 01:18:07.079
it had a voice like a like a voice like

1402
01:18:07.119 --> 01:18:09.560
we could talk, but it wasn't the same. It was

1403
01:18:09.640 --> 01:18:12.279
using the language, and Waula was answering it, talking back

1404
01:18:12.319 --> 01:18:16.600
to it. And it was directly behind the wall. And

1405
01:18:16.720 --> 01:18:21.399
sometimes they would even tap on the wall. That's another

1406
01:18:21.439 --> 01:18:24.359
reason too, so that we left it because I could

1407
01:18:24.520 --> 01:18:27.159
never sleep. Sometimes they would tap on the wall right

1408
01:18:27.279 --> 01:18:30.800
directly behind where my head was, and I'm like telling

1409
01:18:30.840 --> 01:18:33.960
my husband, I'm like, there's like literally probably four inches

1410
01:18:34.079 --> 01:18:37.600
between my head and where the sting could literally just

1411
01:18:38.039 --> 01:18:40.159
literally push its hand right to the wall and grab me.

1412
01:18:40.560 --> 01:18:43.119
That's terrifying. And they would just tap on the wall

1413
01:18:43.600 --> 01:18:47.520
as they would cross back and forth nightly to get

1414
01:18:47.800 --> 01:18:50.119
to go over to the river. I'm assuming to hunt

1415
01:18:50.159 --> 01:18:53.000
deer and to get water because that's where the water

1416
01:18:53.079 --> 01:18:56.079
source and fish were, and they would just tap, hey,

1417
01:18:56.119 --> 01:18:58.479
we're moving by, and then taping and hey, we're coming

1418
01:18:58.520 --> 01:19:01.239
back to and of course it's gonna wake you up.

1419
01:19:01.720 --> 01:19:04.479
The day we went to leave. The next day after that,

1420
01:19:05.600 --> 01:19:08.399
we had my truck was mine as she was loaded

1421
01:19:08.479 --> 01:19:11.039
up and I was pulling the trailer and he was

1422
01:19:11.119 --> 01:19:14.720
driving a large twenty six foot Penske truck pulling his car,

1423
01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:17.239
and we both we pulled out of the driveway. We

1424
01:19:17.279 --> 01:19:18.920
stopped in the front of the house the middle of

1425
01:19:18.960 --> 01:19:22.239
the road, and we were like, bye house, bye, and

1426
01:19:22.279 --> 01:19:25.000
we told our neighbor came to tell us by. We

1427
01:19:25.199 --> 01:19:27.760
asked her about this before and she said, yeah, but

1428
01:19:27.880 --> 01:19:29.399
I'm not going to go in any show and I'm

1429
01:19:29.439 --> 01:19:32.319
not talking to anybody everybody around here knows that they're here.

1430
01:19:32.840 --> 01:19:35.720
We just don't talk. She called them wood boogers. She's

1431
01:19:35.760 --> 01:19:38.279
everybody knows about them, all the wood boogers, and we

1432
01:19:38.399 --> 01:19:40.199
just we don't mess with them, and they don't mess

1433
01:19:40.239 --> 01:19:43.079
with us. They've been around forever. That's just the way

1434
01:19:43.079 --> 01:19:45.159
it is around here. We don't we just don't talk

1435
01:19:45.199 --> 01:19:48.279
about them. And I'm like, and she wouldn't. She just

1436
01:19:48.640 --> 01:19:50.640
she wouldn't talk to me about it. She just and

1437
01:19:50.640 --> 01:19:52.479
we got to be really good friends, but she just

1438
01:19:52.479 --> 01:19:55.119
would not talk to me about it. And we went

1439
01:19:55.159 --> 01:19:58.079
to leave and she said goodbye, and she went back home.

1440
01:19:58.119 --> 01:19:59.680
And we're in the middle of the road making sure

1441
01:19:59.720 --> 01:20:02.640
we're both of our gps is are locked on to

1442
01:20:02.760 --> 01:20:06.520
the same location in case we get separated on the highway.

1443
01:20:06.600 --> 01:20:08.800
So it was a six hour drive to Indiana where

1444
01:20:08.800 --> 01:20:13.479
we were going, and all of a sudden, our phones

1445
01:20:13.600 --> 01:20:17.720
start flipping screens and they instead of going to our

1446
01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:22.479
location in Indiana, it kept saying our It kept just

1447
01:20:22.680 --> 01:20:28.840
repeating our address kept flashing across the street screen in Newport, Tennessee,

1448
01:20:28.960 --> 01:20:32.399
our house address there, and our phone screens just kept flipping.

1449
01:20:32.880 --> 01:20:36.560
One of our phones doing that is one thing First

1450
01:20:36.560 --> 01:20:38.680
of all, we're not on we don't have the same

1451
01:20:38.800 --> 01:20:41.239
phone plan. We're not on a phone plan at all.

1452
01:20:41.680 --> 01:20:44.479
We got prepaid phones, and we don't even have the

1453
01:20:44.520 --> 01:20:48.239
same carrier either, So both of our phones could be

1454
01:20:48.319 --> 01:20:51.520
doing the exact same thing. Because I'm like, I don't know,

1455
01:20:51.640 --> 01:20:54.399
my phone's acting crazy right now. He's what you'rs doing?

1456
01:20:54.520 --> 01:20:56.520
I told him, he's a look at my phone. So

1457
01:20:56.560 --> 01:20:59.319
we both he walked over and we both held our

1458
01:20:59.319 --> 01:21:01.239
phone side by, saw it and they were doing the

1459
01:21:01.359 --> 01:21:05.960
exact same thing, like super fast, and he is, hey,

1460
01:21:05.960 --> 01:21:08.640
I got an idea, So he's put your phone down

1461
01:21:08.680 --> 01:21:09.680
for a minute. I'm like, okay.

1462
01:21:10.199 --> 01:21:13.239
So he's bye, guys, I love y'all. He's what we

1463
01:21:13.319 --> 01:21:17.319
gotta go. We gotta go take care of our family.

1464
01:21:17.600 --> 01:21:20.760
We're going somewhere where Carrie can get better medical care.

1465
01:21:21.439 --> 01:21:24.720
You guys, take care. Everything will be okay. And then

1466
01:21:24.720 --> 01:21:26.960
as soon as he said that, boom, both of our

1467
01:21:26.960 --> 01:21:29.840
phones at the exact same time start working again. I

1468
01:21:29.880 --> 01:21:32.439
don't even think there's no way that could be a coincidence.

1469
01:21:32.840 --> 01:21:34.840
He's like, Okay, I guess we're on the road now.

1470
01:21:35.079 --> 01:21:38.680
I guess we are. And that's when we left for

1471
01:21:38.720 --> 01:21:40.279
Indiana Special.

1472
01:21:40.279 --> 01:21:42.079
Thank you to Carrie for coming on the show. This

1473
01:21:42.119 --> 01:21:44.600
is part one of her interview. If you want to

1474
01:21:44.600 --> 01:21:46.720
hear the second part, it's coming out in a few days.

1475
01:21:47.960 --> 01:21:50.279
Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something

1476
01:21:50.319 --> 01:21:53.520
directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're

1477
01:21:53.560 --> 01:21:57.319
in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've

1478
01:21:57.319 --> 01:22:00.239
seen something that no one can explain, Or if you're

1479
01:22:00.239 --> 01:22:03.439
a National park ranger, a forestry worker who's been told

1480
01:22:03.479 --> 01:22:06.479
to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot who's seen

1481
01:22:06.560 --> 01:22:09.800
something strange down on the ground, or if you're with

1482
01:22:09.840 --> 01:22:13.439
the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you

1483
01:22:13.520 --> 01:22:16.640
stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And

1484
01:22:16.720 --> 01:22:20.079
if you're a firefighter, paramedic, or search and rescue responder

1485
01:22:20.159 --> 01:22:23.399
who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense.

1486
01:22:23.960 --> 01:22:27.760
If you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field,

1487
01:22:27.920 --> 01:22:30.960
or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something

1488
01:22:31.039 --> 01:22:34.439
happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're

1489
01:22:34.439 --> 01:22:38.319
a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under

1490
01:22:38.359 --> 01:22:41.720
contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report.

1491
01:22:42.279 --> 01:22:44.720
If you're a pastor, a missionary or someone on a

1492
01:22:44.760 --> 01:22:48.239
spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith,

1493
01:22:48.960 --> 01:22:52.039
or if you work in the shadows CIA, NSA or

1494
01:22:52.079 --> 01:22:55.760
anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't,

1495
01:22:56.800 --> 01:22:59.560
then I want to talk to you, even if it's

1496
01:22:59.560 --> 01:23:04.600
