Sasquatch sighting near Putnam County (2024)

On a quiet morning drive, the witness stopped and watched a thin dark-brown quadruped standing in the dirt road about 300 feet ahead. It lacked a visible snout or ears, looked at the witness, then drank or sniffed at a puddle and walked into the woods. The witness later photographed a partial 15-inch print in the puddle.

Movement only in New York (2017)

The witness and a companion hiked far into virgin timber to fish a distant pond. After hearing movement and feeling intense cold and dread near a swamp, they camped amid unnatural silence. Both reported a shared lucid-dream-like experience of small pale beings that looked back and vanished, and the witness took photos thought to show something.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
