The Thing That Screamed Back: A Maryland Sasquatch Story

0:01 You're listening to Bigfoot Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron Tonight's story doesn't come from the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. It comes rather from the marshes and power lines of eastern Maryland, where something's moving there that shouldn't be. Derek's not a camper or a hiker. He's a brick mason, a father, and a man who spent years walking the same trails near Easton until one day something screamed and shook a fifty foot pine. What followed were ten years of encounters, woodknocks, stacked rocks, glowing eyes. In the moment he saw a black figure glide across the power line quarriter at impossible speed. This isn't folklore, this is eastern Maryland. So stay with us. I think that Society've got the privilege of talking to Derek today. Derek's an individual that reached out to me. He's a listener of the show, but specifically he wanted to share some things he has experienced over the years over an eastern Maryland. This is an area that is starting to come out of nowhere.

0:57 There's some stuff happening. So we're going to hear some more about that today, Derek. Welcome to the show. How's it going, man, it's doing well. Man. I thank you for having me on. It's a pleasure and an honor. And I've been a fan for a long time and in bigfoot research or no, I wouldn't say research, but bigfoot activity for like ten years. And it's awesome to get my stories up. I love it, man, this this era. I am excited to hear from you in about this East Maryland area. And it is kind of weird. I mean, I think I've even just recently talked to a Delaware guy too, and then you've got the southern New Jersey stuff. I wonder if it's all connected. I don't know, but you know, I'm going to go ahead, Derek and pass things over to you. So you've got the time to share what you've experienced over these ten years.

1:49 Great. Great, I appreciate it. Yeah, so gosh, man, to start from the very beginning. So I was in Caroline County, which is I live county. It's easton Maryland, So in Caroline County that's where I used to deer hunt. Right. So, my my grandparents used to have a big five hundred acre farm, right on the Chopp Tank River, and and so we were getting ready for deer season and begin a deer season, you know. And you know, I was eleven years old, and so when I was walking to my stand, right, I jumped something very large, which is not unusual because we used to jump deer all the time.

2:31 And so I sat I couldn't find my stand in the morning. It was so funny. I had my little mag light, you know, I mean, I just I had. I just saved up enough money to buy this Malsburg pump shotgun. And so I'm I'm I'm sitting sitting in this little bush pile of briars, and so I couldn't find my stand. And next thing, you know, something open ups behind me with us like it sounded like a fire whistle. Like I just imagine, I'm like just a young man, like eleven years old, and to sound like a large cat. I mean, it was like it starts real low and then went real extremely high. And so I turned. I turned, I turned around, and it's shaken this fifty foot lob loly pine, like I mean, just shaking it. And I'm like what in the world, And it screams twice at me and like, like extremely any it was. I mean it was very traumatizing for a young you know, young man. And so I was when I was dear hunting with my brother, I said, man, did you did you hear that screaming going on behind me?

3:38 I mean I ended up staying. I end up staying because you know, my brother was like, hey, you know what, you're going to meet me at the truck at this point. And you know, being an easter shore er, you know, you you do what your brother tells you to. So anyway, I was like, did you did you hear that screaming that was going on behind me? He was like, no, I come to find out that he was. He was in my grandparents' house, sleeping on the couch. He just took me there to drop me off a good deer, honey. But in any case, he was like And so I explained everything to him, you know, and he was like, no, what happened wasn't Because I used to carry scent glands on me, right, We would kill deer like during bow season and cut the scent glands off and put them around our ankles so it masked the scent to our going to our stands. And he said, no, what happened was another male deer smelled these scent glands and got real agitated with you, started getting mad and started scraping his antlers against the bushes. And I was like, no, that's not what I saw. That's not what I heard and not what I saw, and I'm trying to explain this to him, and he just immediately shut me down.

4:49 So I just stopped, you know, I mean, I just stopped, and I knew. I knew something was out there. I knew this was at the age of eleven in nineteen eighty six. I knew something was out there. So fast forward a little bit to two thousand and fifteen, roughly, you know, I'm I hear the same screen on scream on the internet. Some lady at the at a landfill. They were getting the big feet, were getting excited because they were dumping some trash off late at night. And then then when I'm in their area, so he started screaming and carrying on, and I'm like, that's the same scream I heard when I was eleven years old, and so now I'm getting into it. You know, I'm listening to Scott Carpenter. I'm listening to Bigfoot Outlaws, right, you know what I mean, because I'm excited, you know, because they're in my area. I know they're in my area.

5:44 I'm I want to go back over to my grandparents' farm and you know, go exploring and looking for him. And so as I'm as I'm listening to Scott's Scott Carpenter and and uh Coombo and and bear right, they were there was they were giving little details like you know about bows and breaks and of course you know you got footprints and and Indian trees, which is which is very unique. And so you know, I uh, I was like, man, I've seen these before. I've seen trees been over, and I've seen breaks, and I've seen twist and I've seen this stuff. And so you know, as I'm I live in in Cuty limits of Eastern and I'm one day and walking down my trail and I'm I come across a bow, I'm like, whoa, wait a minute, that's that's crazy. I come across another bew, I'd come across a break, then I'd come across another bow, and then I'd come across something that really struck me with stacked rocks and so as I'm looking at these stacked rocks.

6:50 My sisters with me, and I said, Rosemary, and I said, look look at these stacked rocks. And these weren't average rocks that you find on the eastern shore. These are rocks that you found you would find in the mountains, because you know, I've been to the western Maryland, I've been to l Ray Shenandoah Valley and that type. These are kind of like river like, kind of like a river jack they call it. And I'm like, these are just odd looking rocks. Rose Man, I said, who would bring these out here and just stack them right next to the human trail? And I so she was like, that's some kids. I was like, I don't see kids doing that anyway. So I counted them. They were thirteen in total, right, so that that'll come back and come back a little later on, right, because I remember thirteen.

7:36 So you know, I'm I said, I'm going to I'm going to come in here early. I was treating it like like like deer, honey, l hunting, any other animal, like I'm going to go in this area early in the morning, and I want to see what I can see first late, So you know, I get up at about five o'clock, get dressed. This area is only a mile away from my house. So I start walking, you know, walk down to this little area, right. I mean, it's it's not it's the preserve is not that big, you know, maybe it's well maybe it's probably about five hundred, five hundred, six hundred acres. It's got it's got marsh deer, turkey, it's got tons of and you're not allowed to hunt there.

8:22 So it's a preserve, right, So you know what I mean, It's got plenty of wildlife, plenty of animals, right on a river, right next to a power line, a power plant. It's it's got a lot of a lot of interesting things and in the area is very strange in itself. But anyway, so I go in early that morning and I just I go and and I'm walking and something is pacing me in the woods, right, I'm walking on on the paved human trail, and something is pacing me, and I I i'd walk, and I can hear it walking in the leaves. And when I stopped, it stopped.

9:06 And but keep in mind, it's it's briars and brush and and still it's like at this time it's period. It's about like five quarter after five in the morning, so it's real dark. I can't see anything. And I didn't take any flashlights. Oh I took was my my phone light, my phone, my cell phone. I don't take any weapons. I don't, I don't. I don't do that, you know. I mean because these these beings, they can they can read read people, right, they can read intentions. They can they can see what kind of person you are, right, if they if they're going to come out and and socialized basically with you. So anyway, I'm setting I go back, and I'm sitting on this bench right next to the marsh, and I'm I'm just kicked back, you know, got my new beyond just sit back and relaxing and and uh, right is the as it it's crack. I can hear people now.

9:59 Uh. I'm walking on the trail and it's roughly about one hundred yards away from these benches because it's kind of deep in the woods next to the marsh, and all of a sudden to hear this single not it was undeniable. The sounds that I would hear for like Scott Commenter or or any any place on YouTube is just what on what I'm like, WHOA, that's crazy, That's that's crazy. Right, they're they're they're actually in here. They're right some some is actually in here. So I I I go home. I'm all excited. You know, I gotta go to work. I do masonry for a living, so you know, I go to work, and I I'm excited because I'm you know, we're getting off of three. I'm coming back. I'm coming back and look, you know, I'm coming back to see what I can hear and see what I can see, so that that afternoon, I'm coming back into the same area, crossing over this little little wooden bridge that comes across a cove or craig however you want to you want to say it. And it's daylight now, so I can see everything, and I don't. I don't hear anything or see anything pace with me. And all of a sudden, the animals are tamed in this area. Deer, you I can.

11:16 I can walk right up to a deer and basically I most touch it. Rabbit, squirrels are all tamed because they're you know, because of the the human aspect of it. It's all of a sudden, this this rabbit in front of me just takes off, just start spreading. So now I know something something just jumped them, right, Something just jumped this rabbit and he and he took off like he was scared. It looked like he was scared. I immediately break right. And now so I break right in this little tractor trail that goes through the woods and goes through the power power line right goes to the power lines. The power lines are roughly about one hundred yards wide.

11:59 Sometimes they keep them mode, sometimes they don't write. Most of the time they don't. But at this present point time that they were moode right. So it was I had a clear view of everything. It was three o'clock in the afternoon. Sun was to my back, so I had a clear view of everything. I get to this field and I see this person. My first thought was, and I'm just gonna be real here, what is this black man running in this field for? And at a high rate of speed? I mean it was he was the fastest being I've ever seen in my whole life.

12:43 I mean he did a hundred about one hundred yards in three seconds if that. And and I had a process I went back to those benches and process what I just saw because it didn't look like normal running. It looked like he was on skis right. He didn't have the human pumping legs like you know we when we when we start to sprint, we pump our legs up and down. He was more of a glide, right, But he was getting it. I mean he was moving moving out, uh, extremely fast. There's no way you're going to out run one of these things. No way. I don't know any animal that could probably outrun in one of these things. And so creatures, because that's that's what I believe they are. The being I call him beings because I've had numerous strange encounters with them. So this is my very first sighting, very first sighting. Total dark black, long black hair. I mean he was black, bear black, solid black, and he stood out because he was so black and approximately he was approximately she's I don't know, maybe maybe six and a half feet. It wasn't. It wasn't.

14:10 He wasn't. I don't know if it was male for real, because he was getting it, had his back timmy really and he was moving away from me. So now I'm now I am pumped. Right, this is in twenty fifteen. I'm pumped and I'm like, whoa man, I had my first sighting. This is so awesome, right, I'm super excited now now I want to know everything about him. I want I want to see what you know. I just want to just get involved here, right, And I you know, i'd go back and tell my friends. I tell him, I told my wife, told my kids, and you know, it was like everything else. They ridiculed me, laughed at me and thought I was crazy. Right, so you know, okay, whatever, But but I'm going to enjoy my experiences. I'm going to have a good time out here. So you know, I started taking the tape recorders out, I started taking cameras out, I started taking all kinds of stuff out.

15:10 The very next morning I go in, I'm gonna go back in to say I'm teeming the same way. Big for Society will be right back after these messages. I'm going to go back in at five thirty in the morning and about five five thirty, and I'm gonna sit on those benches and we're gonna see what happens. Well, So as I'm walking, they use animals, right, they use they train crows, They trained foxes. I was walking into this area, right and I'm getting ready to get up to this bridge, and there was this red fox just sitting there. He was sitting, he was sitting right right at the bridge entrance. As soon as he saw me, he just he just opens up, you know, oh wow, because they got a strange call anyway, at strange bark and and he would run ten feet in front of me and start barking at me, run ten feet and bark.

16:25 I'm like, man, there's no way that I can sneak in here now, you know. You know me, I just got made. I just got made. And I and it just all of a sudden, Well, as I'm sitting there on that bench, I was like many that he was intentionally sitting there. He wasn't doing anything but intentionally sitting there guarding that bridge and being in an alarm for this area. And I'm like, whoa that? That that was very interesting, right, you know, So that that happened that that morning. I come in, you know, I just I just kept coming in. I just kept coming in because more times, the more frequent you come, you know, the more experienced you're gonna get. Yeah, It's just like Jesus City.

17:12 You're seeking self, fine, right, and so I'm I'm I'm seeking, I'm going in. I'm going in, and so you know, it's like it was experience after experience. I was hearing rock clacking, right, you know. I would here, first I would hear people on the trail, and then I would hear a clack of a rock. I was like, man, they're they're signaling to each other. They're they were signaling to each other. And so they know English. Right. So one time I go in, I'm sitting on the same bench, and I whooped to them, right, you know, I when I go in the area, I'm not hot. And from then I know they got centuries, they got they got they post up, they post up, so they got trails covered.

18:00 And so I go into an area, I go into it and I whoop to him, you know a little better than that. But and about ten minutes later, I hear one of them come back deep in the marsh. Hey, he just said hey to me, Like it reminded me of the Spanish members that work for us, Like some of them don't know English that well. So we have to point and you know, I say, hey, shovel and he will say, hey, Paula, right, you know what I mean. And it reminded me of that, like like we're trying to we're trying to establish a communication here, and that's what it reminded me of. And I'm like, wow, man, that is awesome. They're they're actually trying to communicate with me.

18:48 And so so it was it was like experience after experience, you know. So I'm a I'm one night I decided to take my dog out. I have an Australia. I had an Australian Blue Blue. He already just got a lot in TIXTS disease and passed away. So anyway, I decided to go at nine o'clock at night and decided to go go take them for a walk. And on the same trail, same trail, right, and and uh we we get over to the area and I am unleash m right, and he's going he's all excited. He's all excited.

19:33 He's gonna go have a good time. He's gonna go smell everything, he's gonna get a peel on everything. He's gonna just gonna he's gonna go run and run and run have a good time. Right, he runs across the bridge, right, he's all happy. I get across the bridge and he's cowarding. He's cowarding right at the bridge. Right, He's got his table between his legs. He's staring out and into the woods, and he shivered. I'm like, oh, they're they're close. They're close. I know they're close, right, So I leashed him back up. My sorry at Oscar, buddy, We're gonna be all right. They're not gonna bother. They're not gonna bother. They're just gonna we're gonna enjoy ourselves. And I should have, for his sake, turned around and walked away, but I wanted. I wanted a better experience, you know what I mean.

20:14 I wanted, you know, I mean, that's just the way it was. I I enjoyed. I enjoyed this, so I would I walked. We started walking, and we were getting around to you that that the power lines. We had to come around a bend, a sharp bend, and you know, like I said, the power lines were about one hundred yards wide, and they went on for basically to another town. I mean basically for a couple of miles. And so I'm getting ready to turn the corner and a spotlight from front of the air hits me, lights me up, lights me and Oscar up. I stare right up at the app at the sky, and next thing you know, it shuts right off. I'm not hearing any helicopter noise is no no drone noise, no plane noise, no nothing.

21:05 And I'm like, oh gosh, this is getting weird. Now, this is getting real strange. Immediately when I turn that corner, we just keep going turn that corner, it sounds like two elephants, buffalo what he would call a rushing me because now now the grass has grown up a little bit. We're a little further in the season, so it's the grass. It's like switch grass type of grass. And it's that it sounds like they're they're they're rushing me, you know. And and uh, it's two of them, and all of a suddenly, and my dog's freaking. He's freaking, he's crying, he's trying to get away. He just wants to leave the area. He wants to leave so bad. I'm like, sit, sit, calm calm down, Oscar Man, calm down, buddy. It's gonna be fine. They're not gonna bother us. Well, they stop right before they come before the grass ends. And next thing you know, one of them opens up seventy yards behind him, starts screaming, I mean, screaming, yelling too, I mean and and next you know, and I'm he screams once.

22:13 Then he screams twice. My dog. That's the second scream. My dog pulls, breaks his leash, breaks the collar, and he takes off. He takes all like a bat and uh and leaves me, leaves me standing there. So now I'm I'm by myself. My dog's gone, and he's on his second scream. He's gonna he sounds like he's gonna scream again. And I'm hearing this. I'm hearing this motor start. Whoa because I'm right next to a creek, right next to a cove right Oh whoa, I was, and it sounds like an a TV. I thought it was a quad. I'm like, oh, shoot, will we got d n R back here? Which because you're not supposed to be really be on this trail, it's a dust and dog on the trail, you know. I'm like, oh man, I don't want I don't want any problems with the d n R, you know, I mean, i don't want to get a fine or or rappermand or whatever. But because I don't have my dog now, he just broke free from me, and so and plus I got something screaming yelling at me. Well, I come to find out it was a boat. He was a fisherman fishing down in that creek, was doing late night fishing and heard they screams. He ended up screaming four times. And and he didn't even bother. He slammed that that motor, that throttle down on that motor.

23:32 I mean, he didn't even to let it warm up. The floodlights came on, the whole creek lit up, and he was getting out of there. It was funny. It was really funny. And so I I'm walking talking to him the whole time, right because I'm I'm gonna be honest with you. It was pitch black, no moon. I just had a spotlights blake me up. I had. I just got screamed at four times. My dog broke free from me. I was a little a little nervous. Note of course, so I don't carry weapons on me. I don't care really carry a light except my my cell phone, my cell phone flashlight. And so I was a little nervous. I was a little scared, and so you know what I mean, I'm talking to him the whole way. Guys, Hey, look, you know, I'm sorry I would if I'm mess something up, you know, messing with your hunts up. Just just let me get out here. You know, I won't come back here late at night again. You know. Just just let me out here, you know, I mean, you know what I mean. And I was talking to the whole way because they understand you, right, they understand you're what you're saying to them. They had all this time to peek in windows at all this time to watch people on trails.

24:39 They like watching people, right, And so anyway I get I get to that wooden bridge, I'm like, and I see that that guy he just just came up underneath of it. And he I mean, he's just heading on out of the cove and he's nailing it right. He's with his little Altbord booter and I'm like, oh, shoot, I gotta find my dog. Well, he was another probably another one hundred yards up next to a power plant, next to a substation power plant, underneath of the high pressure sodium like like he was shivering and shaking it. It traumatized and petrified him. He was he was, uh some moss. I basically almost had to carry him home.

25:21 And so and he would never go for our night walks again with me. That was and uh, that's how bad that that traumatized them. But but so these I leave, I leave gifts for them. Now, I wouldn't say gifts like I give them I do. I give them food and and things like that. And and in the ten years that I've been doing this, I've I've probably received two things. I received an ol feather and a rock, and many They love all kinds of things if you want, if you want to get them to take whatever you've got, they love. They love bacon, grease, bacon, honey, oh man, they love honey. They can't stand raw tomatoes, raw carrots, cabbage, They don't like any of that. But anything sweet, you know, cookies of course like that. You know, I don't feed them.

26:21 I try to be conscientious about you know, if I want to feed my own kid cookie too many cookies, And I get apples and bread and all kinds of things like that, you know what I mean, grapes, blueberries. They I tell you what they like bananas, which was shocking. So I put a banana out there, and if they didn't, if they didn't like summer or they didn't want something, they throw it to the ground. They threw the banana down right. So I came back and I showed them. I did a demonstration. I said, look, it's a it's a fruit, and it's good. And I peeled it and I ate. I ate the first banana and and so I brought up in the next day and left left the banana there. The very next day I came back.

27:08 It was peeled exactly the same way. Because I don't peel it from I peeled it from the bottom. I peel a different way than than most people. And it was peeled exactly the way I showed them peanut butter. They didn't know how to open it for some reason. They didn't know how to open the jar, and and they didn't know I don't know. I guess I didn't know what it was really. So I I took a stick put I first. I held it up and told him as a as a screw. I mean, I'm talking to him like I'm talking to anybody else as a screw. On top, I showed him how to screw it on, how to screw it off, And I took a little bit a stick and put it on top of the on the top and left it there for him and they they next day they came and and unscre through the top, still camp on the top. The bottle was about thirty yards away from the tree. Lick completely clean, lick completely clean, like like super super clean. But yeah, yeah, gosh, I've had so you know, I'm telling them, I'm telling my friends and family about the adventures and the exciting You're welcome come out with me. You know, you can come on out, and you know I'm getting ready to kill and laughs. So one damn like, I am going to get proof of evidence this time, because I come across breaks and and and structures, and I'm things all

28:41 the time, and I'm want to start taking pictures and I'm want to start showing you guys. I want I want to show you guys and what's going on out here, right, And if you're not gonna come with me, you're gonna stop, please stop making fun of me. So I you know, I take my camera out, I start popping pictures, right, and so I'm methodically on a Sunday afternoon. I remember this taking a picture. I took a picture of an a structure. Then I took a picture of some brakes and some bows and some twist. I got a picture of a footprint, right, two footprints, a size thirteen and a size nine and a half, roughly nine and a half. Right, And they were stepping, most stepping into each other. That's some of the tricks they used, stepping in each each other's footprints, all kinds of stuff to mass mass. They're you know, their prints. They walk on clobbs of grass and pine needles. Right, I've seen them. I have personally seen them. But I witnessed foot prints that are way out in like the fields. So they would have to climb this tree to jump on this in this grass to I'm pretty sure they can. They can leave a good distance. Right. So all through each each item, pop pop pop, taking pictures, taking pictures, taking pictures.

30:14 Big for society will be right back after these messages. And and I'm I'm getting a lot of pictures because I'm gonna show people. And so next thing you know, I'm getting a bunch of crows, a bunch of crows above me just start just start sounding off. They're just sounded off. The alarm has been been set, right, And I'm like, oh gosh, you know what I mean. And I'm you know, I'm looking up going you know, this is my first I know they use that fox. There was no question in my mind they use that fox for for a for an alarm like an alarm dog.

31:07 And so now I'm looking up and I'm like, I bets they're using these crews too, right, and to keep an eye on me, to keep because they did what they would just circle. They would circle in the area that I was right so too. And this was during the springtime, so it was, you know, I would say, right around mating season or or possibly possibly that you know, they they I found out they had a kid and children in the area that I was trying to get into. And so I'm I'm walking past. I'm going down to a pinch point now, right, I'm walking And the pinch point was between its fragmighty grass which is marsh grass and honeysuckle right and it's as there's a small trail that goes through it, and and I'm I'm I'm determined to go through it because I have been through this before, and I and I know my in my heart there's something in in that deeper part that they just don't want me to see. Right. So, as I'm walking once again, I hear like two two buffalos rushing this grass right there there in its broad daylight. Right, and they stopped right before they before a visual right I always do you know what I mean, Because I got my camera, that's I'm taking pictures of you. And one of them grabs a clump of grass with his hand and shakes it and and I look at it and he does it again, right, And so I'm getting an indication. I'm

32:39 getting a bad feeling. Right, I'm not to go down in there. I'm not to go in this pinch point. I'm not to go where I was heading because there's something something going on here and I and and I just had a bad feeling and I'm like, man, I'm not going to be able to do this. So I'm backing out. I'm walking backwards right, and I'm speaking to him the whole time. All right, Look, I'm sorry again, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to intrude on you. Well, whatever you got going on, I hope you have a great day. And as I'm as I'm walking out, I'm popping pictures. I'm popping pictures. I'm popping pictures. And so when when I start blowing these pictures up, I count thirteen of them. I got thirteen different faces, and I got I got tight ones, I got tight twos, and I got type threes. One had the type three had a snout like he looked just like my German shepherd looked like my I mean saw my blue healer in the face. And he had his hands. They were skinny and they looked like grappling hooks, large grappling hooks. And his kid was right behind him. Yeah, his mate, I guess was holding his kid because the kid, it was the only kid. There was two kids in there. But the kid had a it looked like my Chuala in the face, right, small, smaller in stature, of course, not

34:13 quite like my Chuala, but had like a wild look in his eye, like like it was lost. Were wild and a lighter brownish color, lighter than the rest of them. Rest of them were just solid black. And the mother that was holding it looked kind of like down syndrome. She she had one eye was was higher higher in elevation than the other looked real strange, and they were bulging out. They were bulging out. And so these faces that I was looking at, right, so that those those two you and they're all leaving human footprints, right, I've never come across a canine large canine print in this area.

35:04 I never heard any I've never heard any howling or any any type of like canine activity or they're all they're all and I, like I said, they're all human footprints. And so you know, I'm staring at him like, whoa thirteen? And now I remember those those stack rocks, right, those stack rocks, I'm like, and I was like those stack rocks were there's thirteen of them and the little one, the little one, there was two kids, but one was a little bigger than the yell one, which one was like the one she was holding looked like an infant, kind of an infant. I was like, I'll bet you that thirteen, that smaller stone on that stacked rock was a birth announcement because of the this this, you know, because it was all making Now that's how I was looking at it. I'm like, whoa that is? That makes sense to me? Right, you know because there there are thirteen of them. I got thirteen of them in this photo.

36:09 They're all in fragmenty grass, right. They were all staring. They were all staring out at me. And and the smallest one that the infant was that small rock that birth announcement. And I'm like, wow, man, that is that is that's different, right, you know? And that's h And I come across that once before in and Swallow Swallow Swallow Falls National Park, State Park in western Maryland. They have a sign there says, don't don't mess with the stack, don't disturb the stack rocks. And I asked a ranger there, It's like a who who would be stacking rocks? Well, why would there be rock stacked? And at the time, I was wearing my I Believe in Bigfoot shirt and he just looks at my shirt and smiles at me.

37:08 He gives something something with hands and and he just smiles, and I understood. I didn't we didn't take I didn't take it any further because there was plenty of signs, breaks, bows, everything. I found some interesting stuff in that area as well. They're they're frequenting that area is also so now but now so now I got, I got photo evidence, I got, I got pictures, I got pictures. I'm blowing. I'm blowing faces up from my family. Look at this, Look at this, look at this. And you know, you what I come to finance, you can have you can have a selfie with the big boy himself, and and people are just gonna believe what they want to believe. Right. You know, I'm still getting ridiculed. Man, you got you you got.

37:52 You know, I was accused of things from photo shopping, which I'm not technologically savvy. Man, I don't know anything about anything when it comes to that, And so you know, I was like, okay, I'm just I'm just gonna keep doing what I'm doing. And every time I see one, every time I think I see one, I'm going to just start popping pictures. You know, they they they have an extreme odor, right, you know how the people say they smell like garbage. The other night, my wife was like it was telling me there, you know, did you take the garbage out? Did you miss She asked me, She goes, did you miss garbage day? And I was like no, why excuse me? Because it smells like garbage underneath of our window and underneath of our window. We have them. We have a group of them that that are around my house, right, because I live in a townhouse which borders like the marsh and and uh you know, trees or river power lines, you know, on the other side of of these guys, the of this other group.

39:03 And I've I've got I've caught eyes shine when I start my car up sometimes at night in the trees. I'm not in this like little headrow in my backyard, I've got pictures of them standing there watching me, right. I mean, it's it's it's not it's not really scary for me anymore, because I you know, ten years of this and I've seen a lot. I've been bull charged once by a little a little one me. I took my dogs down to once again, down to the this little marshy area right by next to my house. And so this deer is walking by us. It's dope, and and I'm like, and the dog is just it was like it was it was a beautiful scene. It's very scenic.

39:50 And we were sitting there watching me and the dogs are sitting there, Me and Matuaala and my blue Hero was sitting there watching and I was like, oh, guys, this is so beautiful. Yeah, and and they're so tame. She just walked go by. She makes her right and goes down into the marsh. We'll, all of a sudden, here this commotion going on, and and I yelled her, hey, what's going on? Right? Hey? And next thing you know, the dough pops back out. But now her back, right leg has been bent and twisted. Right, it's been bent and twisted, is now to form. She's on three legs now. And she trots away, and uh, and I'm looking in.

40:31 I'm looking in all of a sudden, this little guy, he's about four and a half feet uh, And I didn't get a clear view of him. It was a quick, quick glance because they're super quick. They're super quick. I mean, they are fast runs in between this little opening I got. He was a light brown, right, light brown in color. And he he didn't like. He didn't like what happened because I guess I just ruined his hunter. I don't know what happened. And he comes to the edge and and he starts, he starts shaking the grass on me and my dogs, my dogs. Oscar. The blue heel started to back off because he's got traumatized once and he doesn't and with this broad daylight, this is broad daylight.

41:16 And Mychalleat just just doesn't know what's going on. She's she's confused, and and and so I yelled into it. I said, look, I'm sorry that I messed your hunt up, but look, please dispatch that dough, that deer that you just twisted that leg up, because that's that's inhumane. And and and then it wouldn't just don't leave her like that, do something about it, please, So I come back down. We we this is an area that we shreak on all the time. We I come back down two days later, and that same dough, that same dough has been dispatched because her neck, her neck was done around right broken and is now laying sang there, just laying I mean laying there, right laying there, because the best saying back bright leg was twisted up and the dogs just smelling it.

42:08 And I believe, I believe the bigfoot listen to me and said, okay, man, you know, I mean, I understand, and we're going to do this. And and so man, I'll tell you this. It's been it's been interesting things like this I've had, so you know, I'm on all kinds of sits, you know, bigfoot sights, and I just I just throw in comments here and there, you know what I mean, like, you know, hey, it looks like a bow or if a person's having a problem, right, you know, because I one time this person was having a situation with some of these guys in Harper's Ferry, West Virginia, and she she, you know, I I, I was throwing some terms out, so she they understood that, and I understood that what was going on because you know, it's very cryptic, you know, because you don't want to get ridiculed and made fun of. I understand that I've been made fun of and ridiculed for ten years because of this. But so the lady got a hold of me on messenger on Facebook, and so she describes that that at early in the morning hours two three o'clock sometimes four in the morning, that something screams at her in her window, waking her up all right early in the morning, right, and then it slaps on the house

43:41 sometimes or bangs on the house. That's why she's she's how she said it and walks on the roof like okay, So so I just, I just, I was just frank with her. I said, you know, it sounds like you're having a bigfoot situation. You're you're I mean, I don't know. She said, she's she's never she's never got up visual on them. She never had any I said, well, you know, she invited me to come and help her, and I was like, okay, all right. So it was during COVID, you know, you might as well, right go camping. We went camp. Ma'ama's sister went camping at Harper's Ferry. Very nice.

44:25 So we go there and you know, and she's explained everything to me, and I'm like, you know, hey, did you have you gone into this any area, any deep areas in the woods? No? No, they are the only twenty five acres. Have you removed anything? And you're on on in these woods, you know, pulled a stone, pulled something. I messed with a train leader, like a property marker what I call because they put property markers up large trees that are leaning against other trees. I mean you could see them riding down the road and sometimes the trunks are up in the tree rather than on the ground.

45:08 So you know, something big is doing this. She was like, no, no, no, we haven't done anything. I said, okay, is your is your Is your husband a hunter? Oh? Absolutely? I said, did he have a good harvest this year? She said, yeah, yeah, he had a good harvest. Big for society. Who will be right back after these messages? I said, well, did he kill? Did he harvest more than than he usually does? And she said, yes, yeah, he he harvests three more than than he normally does.

45:56 I said, well, then you're taking food off her table. And that's how they're viewing it that ye're and and and and it can be a very bad situation. But listen, listen, I'm gonna come where we're Here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna get the gentleman, your husband, because he's the alpha, he's the dominant, he's the man of the house. And we're going to you have any venison left, Yes, we do. We're gonna load up a trash bag full. All right, We're gonna lead a trash bag up full, and your husband, we're going to walk into the woods. We're gonna find one of the structures. Right. So, they had they had a tree, two oak trees that were pushed together making an X up very high up top, not a not not a big X, but like a small X that's on top. So we I said, we're going to go to this area, and you're going to tell them that all all of their activity towards towards you guys, will stop in the name of Jesus. And you're going to give them this bag and if there's and and you're going to give him this bag of of of meat because you know you're taking food off the table, and this is this is the compromise we're going to do.

47:09 And you're not going to to harvest any more than than what you've been doing because you haven't had any problems prior. Correct and so they they did this right, they did this. I we go back, my sister and I we go back that same night and we set up our tent. We're about a mile outside of Harper's Ferry on the Potomac. And so I I go into a I'm a dead sleeper. I sleep hard. I'm I'm dreaming. I'm dreaming, and I'm dreaming of and I'm dreaming of of a bigfoot inviting me to around, sitting down on this law and he's telling me he's telling me that he's and he's telling me that that that he appreciates everything, and and and and I wake up in the morning going what in the world I think I've done this.

48:10 I think I'm going out too much because now I'm dreaming about them. My sister said, Derek, did you hear the people that are walking around our tent last night? I said, we're the only ones. We're the only ones in this camp ground. We're the only ones in here. Who who who would be walking around our camps because I don't know, But he was like early in the morning, two and three o'clock in the morning. I said, oh, man, now now they can invade. I feel that they're they're different, they have abilities that that are way beyond ours. Right if you believe that David Plotti's, Scott Cartner and doctor Ketchum about their their scientific study, right, which I truly do believe because of these experiences that I'm having, the these these beings are are very very vants. Then we think, right, I feel that they can invade your invade your dream space, right or or a it's a conscious state, right, you know how you ask your plane you know? And I don't ask your plane. Because I'm not born again Christian, I don't do anything like that. And so and and Andre reminded me of a time because I grew up on a haunted house and this demon would invade my dream space, tell me he's going to kill me. Then he would shake my bed all the time, poultry, ice, activity, stuff would be thrown around my room all the time, right, I mean scare me, right, and m that he can't

49:44 he couldn't wait till I he I come to see him. I guess. I guess he was telling me I was coming to hell but whatever, and that he was going to kill me. Hold on real quick, and did you just see did you just say the name of something or our audio just start going super crazy in the last wow? Yeah? Well uh uh well I said in Jesus name, Yeah, other than that man, uh yeah. And I've been telling. You that, uh it's not the Yeah, these are these yeah, these are different beings, very different, right.

50:24 You know what I mean? So? Uh, Like I said, I live in eastern Maryland, and we have a town close to us called Royal Oak, Maryland. And were we were big in the south, right, we were uh a slave half Maryland was slaveholders. Half wasn't well with the Eastern shore was which I live on. We're slaveholders. So there's this big slave plantation you know, had a lot of Indian activity on it before. So I believe the lands cursed. The people were having spiritual problems, right, and since since I've become a born again Christian, I I lay hands on people, I pray for places. I like doing this. I fast for people and anyway, so I I went to this. I went to this area, and first thing I noticed is they had a lot of big feet. They had a lot of a lot of signs, a lot of signs, a lot of tree leaners, a lot of broke bows, breaks Indian trees. They had all kinds of stuff. And but they were having spiritual problems as well, you know, like the demon activity, poultric ice activity, disembodied voices, all kinds of stuff going on. So I I started fast and I fasted for seven days straight, just water, and I got on the I got on the land and I started circling and praying, praying and spirit just praying, praying, praying, praying, praying, and land hands anointing with the will, because just doing and just doing what the word says, the instructions in the word. And

51:55 so now I and I sleep on the land, right I sleep while I told them I'm going to be sleeping on the land. I'm gonna I'm gonna put a tente on there, and I'm just not going to leave. And too, this is this is ratified, this is settled, and so and they agree, you know, because because I'm trying to help them, I don't want anything from them. I'm I don't ask for money or anything like that, because Jesus has already paid the price. And so I you know, I'm I'm I'm continuously praying, praying, praying. So I go into another vision. I I call visions, but I'm dreaming. I know I'm out. I don't know. I believe I'm sleeping, But whatever the case. Five, five of these creatures enter a room that I'm in and they tell everybody to leave. They lock the door behind them, and so I i'm me. They go up to it, all five of them. I shake their hands and tell them God bless them. And all of them shake shake my hand, telling me God bless me, except the very last one. The very last one grasps my hand and squeezes it. I wake up the next morning in my hand that I shook his hand with is is hurting its own fire like like like it's been crushed. So then the leader, the one that I'm talking to, tells me, tells me that, uh, we hear that you've been fighting and fighting and it looks like you've got a good left and I and I said, well I'm not. I'm not left handed on right handed. See you wait until

53:26 you see my right And immediately, immediately all activity. I wake up. I come up at his vision, to come up at his dream. Immediately seemed like the sun was shining bright on this place. The atmosphere changed, everything just changed. Right. The people were we were felt safe. They said they didn't have any more problems. And I haven't checked with him, but I'm pretty sure the name of Jesus that everything was ratified and taken care of. And I believe. I believe these someone you know, in some cases, these you know, you got just like people, you got good ones, and you got balance and sometimes and they got abilities they got they have abilities that they're just not flesh and blood.

54:11 You know. I heard a I heard a pastor on your on your program speak said, you know, if they were, if they were spiritual, why would they need to eat? Well? Ask them why did did did the Lord and the two angels eat with Abraham before they went into Sodom? Right? And good more? Or the angel ate with Gideon? Right? And so the and I believe they use they don't They don't personally need to feed uh as well, because they you can use alternative power sources like the earth. I've seen a lot of tree limbs, uh, tree leaners on power lines right right, something's putting them there, right, They just not the wind like does. I've come across quite a few of them. I believe that they they're they're using energy, right, because they're energy, an energy being.

55:09 I believe they're an energy being, a high energy, high frequency being. I put binoculars on one of them's head one time, and I saw his hair shimmering. Right. Another word for shimmering is vibrating. I saw vibrating back and forth. Right. So, so now I know he's using he's masking light, right, He's he's using light as camouflage. Right, he's using vibration as camouflage. He's he and and that's why we can't see him all the time. And I'm like, well, because I've had them pop in and I've had them pop out. I've this this one area where they're they're peaceful, right, the ones that I come across that that And what I believe is when you find one, find an area that has a bow in it, I believe that these are peaceful people, right because God, God places the rainbow in the sky for a covenant, right, a peaceful covenant.

56:07 And they I believe they understand this. And and that's why that that's why they put their bows out, because they are peaceful covenant people. And and and that's how that's how they want to be treated. And they want to be left pretty much left alone. But you know, if say, for instance, myself or others have come across them and and and treating them all respect, They're they're going to treat you respect, right, and uh, and that's they've never they've never scared me, grabbed a hold of me. They they screamed on me of course, right because I you know, I you know, I'm maybe messing up a hunt or or messing something up for him or or possibly I mean, you know, who wouldn't get angry, right.

56:52 I mean if you if I was eating a big maggie came and grabbed it from out of my mouth, I'd probably get a little angry too. And you know, like I said, these are just just people. I believe they are people that hold a high level of ability. Uh, you know, because like I said that that study it's proven, right, and it's proven you know, the DNA study that they had a human mother, but the father is unknown. And I believe that, I truly believe that because these guys are something else man. They they got a sense of humor. I was in in Laray, Virginia, in Shenandoah Valley once again COVID. My sister and I were we want to go take take some time off. We go run a cabin way out in the middle of nowhere on this mountain way. We have to go over a mountain, go down on a little valley and so we're at the in the in the backside of a mountain on this little valley. We we get there late because she had to work and she's, uh she works in the o or but anyway, so we we we there. You get there late, and uh, all of a sudden there's whistling, going like, and it doesn't sound like it's not birds, it's not birds, right, and it's it sounds like somebody's whistling each other, right, And are you whistled to your dog?

58:17 And my sister goes, who in the world will be out here whistling? I said, is man, that's them. They're they're they're talking, they're they're communicating with each other. She gus, are you serious? Say yeah, there's I'm serious. That's some of the things they do. They whistled each other, right, you know, it's like it's like, uh, and I believe the Indians learned this stuff from them, right, because these are these are old beings. These are old beings, That's what I believe, you know, if they came from if they can't had a had an angel for our dad father, you know, because they're large, they're fast, they're uh, they got infrasound, which they're hitting you with negative energy, right, because that's what that infra sound is is radiology, right or radioactive right, because you get sweats, you can you can vomit because I've been hit by uh, you get confused, you get dazed, you and you just don't feel good.

59:15 And and this is these are all symptoms of radioactive being hit you with you know, radiology, radioactive material or with the energy that they they admit and and so my sister was like wow. I was like, well, yeah, if I have a feeling that these guys are not done whereas I have a feeling. So we're we're we're watching n c I S. It was so funny because we're we're out, We're out in the middle of nowhere. What's our salite TV? That's how we're roughing it, watching n C I S. And uh, now all suddens like this. About midnight, midnight, maybe one in the morning, one of them slaps side the house. I mean it, I'm the whole house shook, the whole cabin shook, and non chalantly because like I said, she grew up in the same house I did as a as a kid of the of a of this horded house. Right, we we saw stuff, We saw beings and and and stuff being thrown across the room and things like that. Nonchalantly. She looks over at me and gave what in the world was that?

1:00:25 And I was like, one of them just smacked smacked the house. She goes one of I'm just smacked house, I said, when I'm just smacked the house. She goes, well, I hope they don't do this type of stuff when I try to sleep. I said, well, let me let me go outside and yell to him, and and and see and see if you just talk to him, because they, I mean, they understand English, they understand you, they understand what you're saying. Big for society will be right back after these messages.

1:01:07 And so I walk out to the balcony and yell, okay, okay, guys, okay, that's funny. And it's funny because because what I picture is you've got a couple, a couple of teenagers. They're a couple of juveniles up on that hill, up on that mountain, and you got some you got some rookie rookie uh or some some new people write some newbies, and and they're up there. Go ahead, man, go ahead. I'll bet you're not gonna smeend that house. I'll bet you won't go there to spend the house. And they're they're egging, yell one, I'm gonnat you won't go, and I bet you're not gonna. I bet you won't do it. Oh yeah, I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it. And he finally comes down and does it, and he runs back up and they all getting laughing. Right, And now that's how I'm envisioning a picture, something innocent and something something uh just funny. Right, So I I that's how I treated to go out and I speak to him. Okay, that's cool, that's the cool. But I would appreciate it if you guys don't do that while we're sleeping, because uh, you know, we're here on vacation and I really like to get some sleep tonight. And I thank you, I thank you, and I'll see you tomorrow. And so no problems, no problems at night. And so my my sister is a smoker, and she she gets up early and goes down to the bottom of us the steps, and there is a stick glyph right, And this is the first time I encounter this, which was it looked it appeared to be like a broken arrow, like it had a just like a stick laid down. It had like two

1:02:40 small sticks that looked like an air ahead and then it looked like the feathers on the back, but no feathers but stick. They use smaller sticks, but it was intentional. And I came down right, and I came down with a couple of coffee, and I am My sister goes, hey, did you get up early and do this? And and I look at it. I was thin, like, no, I said, that's cool with it, because what do you think of that? I said, I think they just left us a message. Excuse what do you think it means? I said, well, I'm gonna have to research it. We'll have to figure it out. So I researched it. The Cherokee were big in that area, in the Shenandoah valuer ate the Cherokee. So I look up some of their their signs, right, and so a broken arrow in Cherokee is peace between tribes.

1:03:29 That's what it means, peace between tribes. And so so now I'm getting hey, look, we're sorry, We're sorry for smacking the house, having you come out and correcting us, and we're peaceful people and we just want to let you know that we're not going to call us any more problems and and so, and that's how it took it. And I I go out and this is the first time I came across I thought was burial mounds. Right. So we in the first area, right, I go down this little valley, I come up on the back side of the mountain, and the whole time I'm getting I'm getting pebble slown at me, right, or acorns or something something chunk getting chunked at me, smacking trees around me. Right, And once again I'm treating it as these little kids messing around with me. So I pick up, I pick up some rocks, and I start chunking back. I just I'm thinking, I'm throwing back in the same area where I think they're coming from, right, and I just think they're messing with me. So I'm gonna mess back a little bit. Nothing comes up, you know, they don't jump out and grab me or scare me or anything. But I come across this area where it has this large X right, these two these two oak trees that are crossed, and this time is different than the one the one in Harper's Ferry. It's crossed in the middle. Right. So now I'm thinking something different. Now I'm thinking, okay, it's it means something different. And as I'm walking through, I'm

1:05:00 seeing I'm seeing like three three large mounds, like like they I mean, they're they're large mounts. I say, you can't. It's undeniable, and I'm and I sat there and I thought about it. I thought about it, and and I the ex I believe means stay out, stay out, because this is our burial ground. This is our burial ground, and don't or it's a stat orse or a sacred area, and don't come in here please, right. And so I once that pops in my head, once I get that message, once I get that understanding, I raised my hands. I'm sorry again for intruding. I'm on my way out. I go on out, and no problem is, no no issues.

1:05:45 I got them the whole time whistling up on top of the mountain because I'm I'm down in the valley, you know, I come down, back down through the valley. I gotta go back back around to my cabin. And the whole time they're whistling to each other, they're making noises, and you know what I mean. And so I get that experience in the ray, and it gets a little bit a little bit more knowledge about them, you know. Now, I'm I'm come back to the Eastern Shore, come back, and I come across the same x again, right, and I in another area. And when I entered this area, it's something's in there. I know, something's in there with me.

1:06:26 I just had I had that that that feeling, right, you had you get that like eyes are on you, all that that energy it's I called it energy that that eyes are on you. And and it's just a vibe, you know. And I believe it's an energy that that they you can release it as well if you're staring at a person. Person who's are there now? And so I'm walking in I see these see these trees xed and and immediately I'm looking toward the ground, right, I'm thinking, I'm gonna well, maybe maybe I was wrong. Maybe you know, maybe that's just one time thing. I don't know. Sure enough, I come across one one mound, one large amount, just one and I'm like, oh wow, that maybe that is That was so once again. And and it was creepy the area. It was creepy. No sounds, no animals, no squirrels, no birds. I didn't hear nothing in there, no sound whatsoever, right, you know what I mean? I mean I heard cars going by and on the highway, but that was about it.

1:07:33 And I'm like, oh, okay, So I raised my hand, you know, once again I got to repeat the process. Yeah, hey, I'm sorry for intruding. I didn't mean to. It was I won't. It won't happen again. And I walk on out. I walk that out. I was giving some stuff to one around my sister's house, right, she lives in that in that rural oak area, right right behind a power line. And it is right behind a power line right next to a river. And I mean has met the criteria a deer turkey everywhere? Right. We don't have any predators on the eastern sure, No, no hogs. We have a few coyotes, but nothing. I mean they're not they don't.

1:08:19 I mean, they might run another pack, but I've never really I've heard of me up a couple of times. So that's about it, you know. And and so I was feeding a younger one, right, and I got a picture of him as well, and he was strange or he or she. I once again, I didn't get genitalia. It was strange. Look. Look I got like a monkey, like a like one of those spider monkeys or or an obo monkey or somebody. Look, look, it does look like a monkey face look like a monkey. I've seen them with human human face, right, I had a picture on my Facebook of one that has a human face. Right.

1:09:06 He they were peeking out of the switchgrass on me or the fragmighty grass. Two of them, two of them were approaching me at this time, and one of them sticks his face out and and I popped the picture. Boom, got you, Right, And now I've been showing people. I show people these pictures all the time. Right, So now ten years later, I finally believe in me finally, like, oh man, you know, asked me questions about him. My brother, my brother seen one, right, finally finally seen one. And and so he but this is he doesn't he didn't call it bigfoot. He calls it he called an apparition. Right. So he he feeds, he feeds cats in the woods, right.

1:09:49 He he loves animals, right, the same way with all of this. We I love animals. And so he's he goes out in the woods, he's feeding, he feeds like fifteen straight cats. He takes and get us a new you know, and things like that. And so he tells me and he's real cryptic about it, real like nonchalant like there, you believe in goods, I said, Pete, Man, we grew up in the same household, you know, I believing. And so he's one man I've seen I saw, I saw an opper. I saw one. I said, you didn't well, I said, we'll describe it to me. He said, man, it was like it was about seven foot and he was black, like black as night. And this that he's described my first encounter. And and and he was super quick.

1:10:33 I mean it's super quick. I mean he was like like fast, but he didn't. It didn't. It didn't run right. It looked funny and and all the cats looked at it as it was going by and was going by by fifty yards. But he he didn't. I didn't see it very at all. It was super quick. And Isaac, he said, I said, didn't make any noise. He said, it's kind of screeched and like like made some kind of weird noise. And I've heard him make that weird noise that that he mimicked. He mimicked the noise, and I've heard him make that that noise before. Like they're they're they're a this is an urban area, like I've never heard them how right, you know how they have the Ohio house. I've never heard them. H I've heard them high pitched screen. But that's I guess when you really make the man, they're gonna upset them. They're gonna they're gonna let you know. But I'm like I said, I've never heard the how or or chatter or anything like that. This is, like I said, this is an urban setting. So I believe they keep things to like a whistle. I've heard like it's kind of like a barking, like a barking noise, like a come between a barking and a monkey. It's hard to describe. And that's the that's the noise. He he mimicked man. And and like I said, I've heard that before, and I believe they they also they they manage they manage deer as well. Right,

1:12:07 I know that sounds strange, but like they I mean, there's deer all over the place, and I know they're they're all over the place, and they're and they're just not taking them down. They're not taking And so if there's thirteen large beings just in this one little area, right, there's none and and and they're pretty big, right, right, So one of them. One of them is about nine foot right, about nine and a half foot roughly. And if you got quite a few more of these guys right, and you would think they would have to eat a deer at night, one of them a deer. Each one of them would eat a deer night, and the population of these animals would just be would be gone. It would be gone, right. I know they can eat other things.

1:12:50 I know they can eat fish and birds and things like that, but the animal animal population would be gone. So that's why I feel that there is an alternative energy source they use. They use, like I said, the earth power lines. I've heard them around power plants all the time. I've seen them. I personally seen them in this area that I that I that I go to. I like walking it because it's just the first area that I had my first sighting. And I like talking to them, right because I mean, they don't come out and talk to me. We don't carry on a conversation.

1:13:30 They never invited me to dinner. But you know, so I just continue like going there. And and but I've seen other strange things. I've seen people flying flying drones in the daytime. Even one thing was an odd place because of I mean, it's a great neighborhood. Awesome neighborhood. The area is great. It's across from a target. How can you how bad can it be? You know what I'm saying. But yeah, gosh y. So I've been to uh like Harper's Ferry to Western Maryland, right, that was that was a good adventure to to Swallow River State Park.

1:14:17 Gosh so, but it was. It's been Tuckahoe State Park, which is in Carolina County. I've had quite a few encounters over there. That's where I came across some canine tracks. Right that. Then, this is the first time I've ever come across canine tracks that were larger than my hand. Like I have a decent sized hand. I can palm of basketball, all right, So I mean it's not that bad, right, And these these canine tracks were larger than my hand. And once again I'm with my sister and I was like, roseman, so what do you think of this in the area? So the area was strange. We we walked down in this this about valley and it's like did some did quiet? Big?

1:15:04 So society will be right back after these messages. It's like it feels like no breeze isre It just feels like it's just dead, like you know, just like like like some kind of energy, weird energy going on. But once you come off out of that valley, you hit a top point, there is a marker a tree, a large oak tree wedged in between perpendicular wedged in in between like a fencing, uh, three other oaks and there it's cross membered. It's I would have to draw it to show you. But anyway, in this valley we come down to this sandbar and I come across these canine tracks and I'm like, I wonder if wonder if and I'm thinking, you know, wonder if this area that that that fencing up there was a marker right that these the bigfoot the big feet or however you want to say, left right to tell the other being whoever left those big canine tracks. This is our land, this is our territory, and you're not going to come over here.

1:16:32 You can have that, and we're gonna take this. And I thought about that. I didn't see I didn't see anything. I heard some knocking. I heard some knocks I've heard I heard some rock clacking. I saw bows breaks, I saw the signs in in that area and they was. You know, it's like everywhere everywhere I go, I've seen. I had to make a trip to Baltimore City last week and you know you have to go up anybody familiar with the area, you have to go over fifty, which I see. I saw plenty of signed Bowse breaks, free leaners. You hit ninety seven, which is on Interstate, I see, I'm seeing those breaks everything. I'm I hit two ninety five, which which is a corridor between Washington, d C. And Baltimore. It's the interstate between them both.

1:17:27 I'm I'm catching Bowse breaks. You know things I can see on the move, and I mean these beings are everywhere. They're everywhere. I got them on the way to Shenandoah Value. We had to go around d C. And I pay attention and I'm seeing bows and breaks and I'm seeing all kinds of things. On four I'm like, oh man, they're right outside the city's capital, the nation's capital. I last year I did a trip to the Cno Canal, which is is a is a nice trail. It's a trail that goes from Washington, D C. All the way up to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and you know, it goes to Harper's Ferry, goes through Cumberland, Maryland, and goes through a lot of these places. And so you know, I start I started traveling, and and and I'm getting strong, strong smells of urine, like heavy, heavy, yeur. Indeed, this is not this is not some hobo pen this is not some doll. This is something else, something large, all right.

1:18:42 So I'm I'm seeing bows and brakes as well. So I and and this is close to d C. As soon as you hit the trail. As soon as you're you're in you're in d C. You're in Georgetown, Georgetown, And so they're they're close. They're close to the nation's capital, real close to the White House. Like maybe I'm probably two miles outside of the White House. That's how close. I'm seeing signs of the of these beings. Right, and so anyway, I'll go down. I'm walking down the trail. Right, it's gonna be a two day adventure. I'm gonna I'm walking to Potomac, Maryland, which is twenty miles, and then I'm gonna walk back twenty miles. Right, I'm gonna do this two days I'm gonna do. The first day, I'm gonna do twenty miles. Next day, wenna do twenty miles.

1:19:31 I'm conditioned, and this is what I'm gonna do. And so you know, like I said, I'm getting heavy, heavy urine smell, I mean, super strong, like something something's marking his territory right. And and possibly it could have been something else because I heard on on the dog Man Encounters with Vic gentleman up in that area gave a port that he saw a dolt man right, saw one and he had came on feet and so I and and it makes sense because this this was a strong, strong smell. But I I got woken up again at like three in the morning with them banging on trees.

1:20:18 They were they were they were knocking on trees and and they were they were calls on the ruckus right there. They were shaking trees and and they were making them. So I yelled to him, hey man, will you please stop it. I'm trying to sleep. I throw and I had a little jar honey, and I throw a little jar of honey in the woods. I said, please take this and leave me alone. I wasn't there for them. I was there strictly for enjoying enjoying the trail because I heard, you know, I knew they were. I had a feeling that they were they would probably be there, but I didn't. I had no idea, and I just I just wanted to enjoy myself and and show enough of these guys were there. And it's man, I'm telling you, it's it's it's been a it's been a ride. I you know, everywhere everywhere I go, I see signs of them everywhere I go. If you if there's a woods, I'm seeing tree leaners. I'm seeing bows and brakes, twists, you know, especially especially here on the Eastern Shore. You know, we got we got some some nice federal reserve a couple of counties over, you know, especially with my dad and I come across some massive breaks. This tree that was about two foot in diameter, this loh blah a pine and it was snapped about thirteen fifteen feet up in the air. Right, So this boy was big. This

1:21:50 boy who did this was was a big boy, right who did this one? Because it was it was it was broken over and twist, right, So I know, unless a tornado came through, nothing's gonna nothing is going to do that, you know, you know, it's going to grab it and then roll it over to a bit. And I've come across a few breaks like that, some some big breaks, right, so I know there there's some big ones out there, right. I saw I saw these pictures that that gentleman who who wasn't Mark Paul, Mark Paul and they had yeah yeah, yeah yeah. I saw the gentleman that showed a picture of that one to the right, and and I'm like, whoa that that that's a big one that you know, I mean that had to be fourteen fifteen feet right? Am I correct on that?

1:22:47 Oh it's big? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it looks like a stick in you That's what it kind of looked like, because it looked like a basketball player, like like kind of lean I've caught. I you know, I came across something that size, right, And I still I don't really speak on it because I that that blew my mind because I you know, I know they're big, but to see something that size, you know what I mean, would just kind of I saw him. I saw him from a distance. I saw his face and his shoulders what I thought was shoulders from maybe one hundred and fifty yards. I mean, and if you if he's fourteen fifteen feet, you're going to see him, right, You're going to see him at one hundred fifty yards. And and I'm just sitting there staring, going, no, man, that there's no way, there's no way that's something that that large right here. But but if you saw the breaks, I mean, and they got long, man, they got long arms too, they got really long arms. I've had one.

1:23:55 So I told you that they can come in and come out, right, I've seen I've personally seen them fade in and fade out, Okay, and so and so one of them about thirty yards. I'm just I'm just staring at the woods, right, I'm on that bench in that area, and when of them starts to fade in right now, I'm seeing a nine foot large being with his arms longer than his knees. Right, he's he's got a beard, he's got a beard, but he's he came in. He came in humbly, like what I mean by that. He his shoulders were rolled in, just kind of rolled in, and he was bent bent down a bit like he he came. And that's how i envisioned it humbly. And and he's coming in slow, right, coming in real slow.

1:24:54 But he's not staring at me. He's not staring at me. He's staring to my right. And so I'm looking to my right. Well I have there's another little one, a little one. This one was probably about I don't know, maybe six foot. He starts to fade in. This one had big, dark, wild eyes like like I used to trap, and I used to trap fox. And if you catch them on a foot trap and you got to dispatch them, they got this wildness in their eyes that that it's like kind of scary a little bit. And this is the this is the what I saw in this little one's eyes, right and and and it never took it never looked at me, and the big one never looked at me. They never took their eyes off each other, never took the eyes off each other. And I got kind of creeped out, you know, because when I saw the wildness in this one's eyes, I just didn't feel right.

1:25:54 But I they haven't they haven't done anything to me, and they haven't they had like I said, they haven't grabbed me, and they have a mess with me. But I I once again, I stood up away, put my hand up. I said, thank you. I appreciate it, thank you for for coming and let me know. And I'll just keep I'll just keep coming out, you know, I'll just keep coming. And so I'll walk out. I walk out, and it's it's like a continuous like I I got them outside, like I said, I got them outside my my slang lass door. I live in the neighborhood living. I live up neighborhood. They come at it early in the mornings. Uh. To get back to what my my wife said, they come up to my doorway because I found tracks in my flower bed right next to my slang lass door. I found a ten foot right, you know, ten foot footprint. One, just one, just one, let me know, because they don't have to do that, you know. I mean, I believe that they do that type of stuff to let you know, hey, hey, we're watching. You know, we're part of that that watcher class of angel right, you know, because that's who they were, the watchers. If he believes the book, you're not and we're watching, we're watching, you know, that's what we do, you know, And and so you know, I believe my wife smelled one of them, you know.

1:27:22 She was like, hey, gosh, it was it was just like trash, like trash and dirt dog and and she was just describing all kinds of dirtness. I was like, yeah, you you probably. I was like, I took the trash out and they took the trash and the trash cans or bleach, So you're not going to get anything from that. You're you probably you probably smell one of them because we're getting into the springtime where their glands are really kicking. I smelled one the other day. If I can smell them, he's close, you know what I mean, He's he's pretty he's pretty close to me. And like I said, they don't have to they don't. I mean, if they're using vibration or or or you know, vibrating their masking out there.

1:28:08 And plus there aren't injines of the woods there. I've seen one up against a tree that looked like he was part of the tree, and if he didn't move, I wouldn't think otherwise. He never thought otherwise. Sorry, can you explain what you mean by he was almost part of the tree? What that looked like? So it looked like the look the tree looked like it had two trunks, right, And it had a knob about maybe eight foot eight foot up like if if you had like a broken branch that broke off, and and it was healing right, and and and it was just kind of a knob sticking out. Well that's what it looked like like like so maybe he had his legs together. And and because I saw two trunks, right, so and I know a tree doesn't have two trunks.

1:29:03 And the tree was and another tree wasn't next to it, and he kind of leaned across. It was leaning across the back of the tree. And I believe I was seeing the top of his head because that looked like the knob, you know what I mean. I believe his his face was pointed kind of pointed down at the ground, and possibly he was looking out of the corner of his eye, because I sometimes most sometimes they don't they're not going to stare you, stare you right in the face, right, I don't. I've never had one just stare me right in the face. And it was they were you know what I mean, this was there were this one was off at a distance. I mean, they're not They're like I said there. I don't. I don't. Most of them are not bad. But you know, I believe that they want to keep keep their distance, you know what I mean, because look, we carry disease, right, you know what I mean?

1:29:55 We carry things, and I believe they understand that. And and they don't want to be infected, you know, they didn't want to be affected, and and and you never know what one of those crazy humans will do. Shoot I like I said, I had to go to Baltimore City last week, and I I would I would prefer hanging out with these guys rather than some of the streets that I went down, you know, you know what I'm saying. So I know how humans can be. I know how humans can be, and. Big for society will be right back after these messages.

1:30:50 And just because these guys may have different eating habits, you know, grabbing a hold of a deer and yanking them apart and sharing them, I mean, who I wouldn't. I wouldn't share my hamburger with somebody, right, I'm just saying, you know, maybe I probably would, But I'm just saying, you know, they they have different different ways, different ways, And who am I to? Who am I to say they're on civilized. You know, I know a lot of people that are uncivilized, you know a lot of them. I agree with you. I mean, it's it's a thing where you know, I just think if we were to go in the woods for a very very long time, what what might happen to us? Right? It would be probably very interesting. Derek, you you have one of the most uh just a very unique viewpoint and how you're actually going to properties and and helping people, uh work through what's going on their properties. I'm sure that maybe a few people that hear this might want to talk to you or get your ideas. Is there a way people can contact you?

1:32:05 Or are you just not not? Really? No? Absolutely, I I you know, when when the Lord Jesus changed my heart, I was I was a taker, but but now I'm a giver, right, and and I want to help people. I want to help because, like I said, I was tormented by demon when I was a young boy, and I know that's not fun, right. I've been also involved with spiritual cleansing, right you know. And I don't use sage and and and things of that nature, you know what I mean? I use what the words is I anoint with oil and uh and I pray in Jesus name and I command in his name and we're not going to take it type of attitude and the authority and so absolutely. My email address is Derek Marth fifty four and gmail dot com. You I'm on Facebook, Derek Marth right Eastern Maryland. You can get a hold of me that way. I prefer Facebook because I'm on Facebook just about every day, but you can email me, that's fine, and I would love, you know, at my expense, I would come and help, you know what I mean. And because I heard a lot I've heard a lot of tragic stories, you know, like on Bigfoot chronicles. I heard a lot of tragic stories, you know,

1:33:36 on big Foot out laws that that I feel that could have been avoided. Like you know, if you know, because you got territorial disputes, you got, you got, you got taking their food off their table, you got you're going on their property because that's their house, going in there and taking things from the from their house, right and and now you know what I mean, you could be in anything they could anything could set them off, like taking their favorite rock. You know, they could have had that rock sitting there and staring at it as they're staring at humans walking into the trail and now you just took it, and now you got it in your house, and they're upset about it, right, I mean, just could be something simple as that. And and I absolutely I love to come and help anybody, anybody, anytime. Absolutely, That's one of the things I do want to say is I went on a trip with my daughter to Washington, d C. We went to the Smithsonian and so I had to sit through. She wanted me to sit with the kids, with their kids. She wanted me to sit through this program on how the human race got started, which I don't believe. You know, they believe in evolution and that we came from monkeys. And so as this presentation is, they're showing pictures, they're showing pictures big feet, early human. They are funding these boons because they're Neanderthal man.

1:35:07 That's how they're they're presenting it as neanderthal man and it's a bigfoot I've seen, like the picture because I took a picture and all my phone, I was like, that's I've seen one of them in the woods and it's Neanderthal man. That's how they're they're presented and I was like, no way, man, that is not that's how they claim that, that's where we come from. You know, we evolved from a Neanderthal man. But but it was a big foot. They showed a picture off and I'm like, man, that is not only are they lying because I know the government knows, you know, not only are they lying to people, it's because you know, you talked to that ranger, and arranger knew exactly what I was saying, especially with me wearing this big foot, this big foot I believe in bigfoot shirt, right, you know, because I will hide it anymore because I you know, I was ridiculed for ten years, and but now people are actually like my you know, tell me stories. You know, my daughter, My daughter told me the story that she heard one not too long ago, and I knew the area that she she heard it in. She was like that I heard this large scream. It sounded like a mountain. It sound like a cat, large cat. I was like, I was like, and she told me the area and I was like, yeah, that's and I knew. I went to high school with the boy that lives lived in that area. The gentleman lived right outside of this preserve. And he said he would hear screaming. It was right outside of the town of Oxford, screaming uh continuously, uh you know, you know,

1:36:42 every week. And and I was like, yeah, I was like, you heard it. That's what you were hearing. You were hearing a big foot piece. He's like, it sounded like a fire whistle. I said, yeah, come on from the woods, right. He was like, yeah, come on from the woods. I had a gentleman telling me, and and so as I'm sharing, you know, very calm confidently, because I'm not afraid to tell him anymore, you know, I got people sharing with me, you know, me gentleman shared that he came across something else in the woods. Gosh, it was a would he described me, would be a like a rake type of creature. Right. He was like a ghoul, That's what he said. He was is like tall, white, skinny, lanky, disgusting looking and and mood funny. And I was like, I never personally seen one, So I did some research looking it up.

1:37:39 I showed him a picture, right, and he was like, yeah, that that's that's what we saw. And I was like that, well, that's what they named it. They named it the rake. I was like, I like I said, I have him personally seen one. I know there's other creatures and other beings. To think that we're the only spiritual beings, are the only beings out here, that's ridiculous to me, you know, And some people believe that. Some people believe that. And like I said, you could have the best photo in the world and people are still gonna believe what they want to believe. But yeah, man, I I I enjoy it, right, I don't. I don't go out looking for him, but I don't go out looking for him. I usually bump into him. That's how that's how, that's how it works, right, we we come across each other. I'm excited because I'm going into this area next week. We were starting this this job, and it's it's right next to our reserve preserve, and I haven't been in this area and and just by it, I've seen some some good sign and I'm I'm anticipating I'm anticipating something something good from this, you know, because you know, it's it's right next to it, and it's like a house out in the middle of nowhere, you know what I mean, that type of thing. And and yeah, it's gonna be I think it's gonna be exciting.

1:39:08 It's gonna be exciting. Derek, you're I mean, you've experienced some some wild stuff, and it would be really cool to see what you get into in the future. I'd say, you know, definitely, you know, keep me, keep me in in the loop, you know, send me an email if if anything wild goes on. And uh and maybe we'll even have to catch up with you at a later date in the future. But I just appreciate you coming on the show, sharing everything that you've experienced over the years. I think a lot of people are gonna learn from this. I appreciate it. Yeah, I really, I thank you. I thank you for allowing me to to speak my my encounters, you know. And it's it's helpful, you know, to to speak it out of course and not bottle things up.

1:39:57 But I you know, I'm I was a type of person I would tell you anyway. I would tell you, okay if you're going to make fun of me. But I appreciate it and absolutely, and and if anybody needs help, I'm I'm there for him, you know. I mean, you just you just shoot me an email, shoot me a message on messenger on Facebook, and you know, I'll definitely get back to you, definitely, because that's the type of person I am, you know. I mean, like I said, I'm I'm selfless and rather than selfish now and and I believe in helping people because people do have problems. It's not only not only with these these creatures, but like I said, spiritual problems. You know, all kinds of things.

1:40:44 You know. I go to a Pentecostal church and you you can just just all kinds of things they tell it tell you, you know. Uh. And so absolutely absolutely just get a hold of me. And I loved I love to come and pray and that that's just that's the very first thing I do. I start praying, I start praying fast. Franswer help. We need help. We needed an answer on the subject. And please deliver one to me either or to the to the individual that that needs it, because because we're asking in your name, we're asking, and you're a good Papa, and I know you're going to do it for us. And that's how I treat it. And and and he hasn't failed yet, he hasn't failed.

1:41:25 M thank you absolutely absolutely, brother. Uh. You sometimes you don't want that door. You don't want it to be open, because sometimes it could be a fight to get to get through it or to close it, you know what I'm saying. And I I I don't I I recommend that you don't go out with photography and and and and try steak these things out, you know what I mean, because you know, you never know what you're going to run in, you know. And I'm not a fearful, fearful person, but I I just don't want to personally lose sleeping light.

1:42:06 And I've seen people do that, you know. I've heard of people doing that as well. Uh. You know, like I said, I know what they can do. I know what they can do. But it sounds like you. It sounds like you've got a strong power behind you. So amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Power of Christ. That's right, that's right, and nothing can shake it, nothing can shake it. And you know, and it's uh, it's it's it's it's like it's a power like no other. You know, I got power authority over the enemy ten ten nineteen and uh.

1:42:47 And that's how I want want I want with no weapons, no lights. But I like sept on my cell phone. I typically don't go out and I don't. I don't take walks anymore, you know, I don't. I lost my dog to limesticks disease. And but you know I don't. I don't typically take strolls out of midnight and through these areas, you know, or one or two o'clock in the morning. And I'm not going out there with with a show far and I'm not blowing these show fars and uh and I'm not I'm not whooping. Uh I I will, but I'm not not at like one or two in the morning, you know, out some some bacon field, trying to call them in, because you call them in, you never know what you're gonna get. You know, I was shooting. You might have messed a hount up. You might have you might have ticked them off. And now they're coming in hot. They're coming hot on you, and and uh, you know, and and you better have Jesus Christ when you're sided. Something like that happens. That's all I'm saying. Because they're pretty big, they're pretty big creatures, and the fast man. I've never seen anything as quick as they are. And when they hit all fours.
