Close daylight observation by a fisherman at a trout stream near Unicoi

June 2006 Allardt, Fentress County, Tennessee Class B #26829

Camper (active duty Marine from Cmp. Lejune) shoots at possible sasquatch and later hears moaning screams

Three companions were gathered at a pond bonfire late at night when one walked back toward the house alone with a shotgun. He reportedly saw eyes staring down at him off the trail, shouted, then fired all six rounds at close range before fleeing in fear. Later the reporter heard a single very loud prolonged scream from that area followed by total forest silence, and a brief morning search found almost no blood and no clear prints.

June 1995 Lafollette, Campbell County, Tennessee Class B #29704

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.

Man recalls daytime encounter near Columbia and Duck River

In 1979 the witness and a friend were walking in woods onto an open rocky glade when they came face-to-face with an upright creature about 20-30 yards away.

Later that day the witness returned with his brother and found a small tree twisted to splinters.

Scream in Tennessee

While walking between woven tree structures, the witness heard a woman-like scream behind him and saw a large hairy form moving parallel then darting into woods breaking trees. He tried to intercept it and a frightened deer stopped close in front of him. He then heard screaming from two positions at once with nothing visible, which he interpreted as interrupting a hunt.

Sasquatch sighting in Tennessee

Shortly after moving to a remote farm the witness heard whistles, door tapping and property disturbances. Waking with a sense of danger she shone a spotlight to the creek and watched a very tall muscular hairy figure stand, display large hands and scream for 30-40 seconds. The scream caused a physical ripple sensation and the family decided to move.
