Sasquatch sighting in Ohio

The guest's grandfather and his brother went squirrel hunting and split up in a small hunting area. The brother slipped over a fallen log and came face to face about a foot away from a huge hairy creature that showed its teeth and had hot, foul breath. He fired a sidearm at point-blank range then fled screaming to the grandfather, and both left in the truck. The brother reportedly never hunted or entered the woods again.

At the base of the tree in murky water they saw a large heel-shaped depression with skin-line detail. They first suspected the grandfather had taken the rod as a prank, but he denied it.

Sasquatch sighting in Texas

The witness, then a teenager, drove to a ranch at night to hunt raccoons with a dog. The dog acted fearful, livestock were huddled, and the woods were silent before a foul odor, heavy thumps, a branch break, growls and a scream occurred. The witness then saw large red eyes and a huge upright figure at close range, froze in terror and prayed, then fled to the truck without clear memory of the retreat, later finding the dog on the road and abandoning the rifle.

The guest was canoeing with a church youth group near Mount Shasta when the group felt they were being followed along the bank and smelled a bad odor. A basketball-sized rock was thrown with great force from dense cover and landed near his canoe, prompting leaders to flee. Years later he learned a boy in another canoe had seen a head show its teeth then withdraw, which he now attributes to a Sasquatch.

Sasquatch sighting in Ohio

After smoke from a burn drew a fast rush up the ridge, the witness lit fires to watch. Through a parabolic viewfinder he watched a tall dark-red creature leaning against a tree for about 15 minutes. It rolled its upper lip, had long cheek hair and a strong sulfur musty dog smell that left when it left.
