Memory told of a possible encounter while camping with friends near LaFollette
The witness and three companions were sitting by a dying campfire late at night when a dog ran back into camp frightened. They then noticed a tall shadowy figure just beyond the firelight that turned to face them, showing eye reflection and a strong foul wet-animal odor. After staring for under a minute, the figure ran upslope through brush breaking branches, while the group shouted and then kept the fire up all night.
Sasquatch sighting in Tennessee (1980)
Years later while working in law enforcement, the witness drove to a remote trailhead to pick up a fire-watcher ranger during a dry fall with active forest fires. Concerned when the ranger did not appear after dark, he walked up the trail with a flashlight and rifle and found the ranger hiding by a rock. Together they watched a tall, long-armed figure with large reflective eyes at the far edge of a clearing for an extended period before it crouched, raked grass, backed into the woods, and circled away crashing through brush. The ranger later said he had already encountered the same figure on the trail, where it screamed at him, caused him to drop his kit, and threw his bag, which was never recovered.
Dogman sighting in Tennessee
While driving home from a night shift along a river road in the early morning, the witness saw a solid black figure emerge and chase the car on all fours with audible breathing and claws. The witness drove faster, saw green eyeshine in the taillights, and followed it for about two miles until it turned off into an old field. The witness could not identify the animal and wondered about a dogman-like creature.
Sasquatch sighting in Tennessee
The witness was driving a van with a friend and two daughters through mountains in Tennessee at night. A tall hairy creature carrying a black trash bag stepped over a guardrail into the headlights and stood watching the van for 30 to 40 seconds. It then crossed the road in a few long steps, went over the far guardrail into the woods, leaving a putrid odor.
