Second-hand Bigfoot Society EP 243

Sasquatch sighting near Dayton, Tennessee (1960)

1960–1969 night Dayton, Tennessee

Account

The guest recounts family activity from the 1960s at a rural hillside property reached by a dark tree-covered road. Family members were repeatedly followed by something that moved with them and shook the door after they barricaded it, and later saw glowing eyes looking through a window. Hogs went missing until a stakeout saw a gorilla-like figure carry one away, and a rider's horse once jumped over a sleeping hairy figure in a field.
