Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky (1975)

Family members then used a spotlight to show her a figure stepping out of the light along the tree line. Over the following years the family reported repeated nighttime visits marked by forest silence, strong odor, screams and chatter, plus damage to orchard trees and garden crops.

Sasquatch sighting in Oklahoma (1975)

The guest's grandparents noticed meat and vegetables disappearing from an outdoor wash house over several days. One night the family smelled a strong musky odor in the living room, and the grandmother saw a large hairy figure squatted outside a picture window. The guest's father chased it as it hopped yard fences, snapped a railroad-tie post, and disappeared over a hill. For about a week afterward the grandmother heard something tampering with the wash-house door at night.

Sasquatch sighting near Davie, Florida (1974)

About a week after the first sighting, gunshots were heard from the nearby horse stable. The witness rode over and learned a large creature had grabbed a wild horse from behind. The horse kicked free, jumped the corral, and fled while the rancher shot at the creature. Next day the horse showed hand-like pressure marks, not claw scratches, on its hindquarters.

The witness described it as six to six and a half feet tall, skinny, and intermediate between a chimpanzee and a person.

Cryptid sighting (1960)

A family bought an old homestead where the son repeatedly said little people bothered him in the forest, horses refused the barn, and the barn smelled foul. One evening during dinner the son pointed to a bay window and the father saw a three-foot-tall hairy human-like being by an outdoor spigot apparently chattering to others below. It made eye contact, widened its eyes, leaned back, and dropped from view. The father later found a rock-covered hole in the barn opening to caverns with strong odor, and a neighbor warned that dwarves lived under the old ruined house.
