A man from rural Gilboa, New York finally shares a story he kept silent about for decades. At just five years old, while riding a snowmobile with his father, he witnessed something in the snowy woods that didn’t match anything he’d ever been taught was possible.

What he saw weren’t the massive, towering creatures people expect — but two smaller, upright beings standing in the trees, watching him in complete silence.

That moment stayed buried… until later discoveries began surfacing.

Years afterward, unexplained 14-inch footprints, eerily straight trackways, and multiple whispered sightings from trusted locals began emerging across Schoharie County, West Fulton, and the forests surrounding the Gilboa Reservoir. Hunters, families, and lifelong outdoorsmen all reported encounters they couldn’t explain — and most never told publicly.

In this episode, the witness connects the dots between his childhood encounter and a growing pattern of activity that suggests something has been quietly moving through this region for generations.

👉 The full, uncensored account — including details not shared publicly, additional sightings, and why the witness believes these were juveniles — is available exclusively to members.
