Nighttime sighting by four witnesses, near Plainwell

Late at night at home, the witness and three companions heard banging on the deck and went outside to investigate. In moonlight they saw a large shape kneeling on the lawn that stood and ran across the lawn, through a puddle, and up a driveway. The group later heard low growling and groaning, and the following afternoon the witness found a large footprint in a nearby sandbox.

1991 Michigan #baaac0cd-46f2-485f-b9a8-e51ad4a40dd4

Sasquatch sighting in Michigan (1991)

The witness returned to his family's remote cabin to find belongings disturbed and sensed a presence in a front bedroom. After retrieving his shotgun he heard the screen door slam and searched outside without seeing anyone. He then walked to the lake to call to relatives fishing offshore, and on returning spotted a hairy biped rushing from behind a tree and diving into the water. He waited several minutes but it never surfaced, then found a fresh bare footprint with clear toe detail at the water's edge.

Sasquatch sighting in Michigan (1989)

Five teenagers were skateboarding and staying overnight at a half-pipe ramp they built in woods near a swamp. After smelling a rancid odor all day and seeing glimpses, at night in candlelight one witness came face to face at five to six feet with a 7-8 foot tall hairy creature that made a loud robotic ARK bark. They all fled up a hill while it chased and vocalized, later finding the ramp burned from a knocked candle and snacks shredded.

Odor in Michigan (1977)

The guest relayed his father's account of a night when the family was home while the grandfather was away hauling freight. After a foul odor and prolonged barking by the guard dog, a long loud vocalization was heard, the dog was apparently dragged from under the chicken-coop camper, and three household members separately reported red eyes staring through windows. By morning the dog was dead and mutilated, all chickens were gone with feathers and footprints scattered, and the coop hatch had been opened from underneath.
