Vocalization in Louisiana

The guest and two companions camped for the first time on a large rural property. During the first night they heard a fast-moving loud vocalization, prolonged limb-snapping, stomping and tree-shaking across a field. Later the guest sensed being watched, investigated a thicket and encountered an overpowering ammonia-like odor that he interpreted as a threat display.

Years later in his first apartment far from home the witness again heard the same shuffling footsteps approaching. A fellow officer staying with him, who had not been told the story, separately reported hearing footsteps come to his head. Nothing was heard after that.

Footsteps near Cape Breton, Nova Scotia

Over multiple nights the witness heard shuffling coming down the hall to his basement bedroom, with the door moving, books sliding off, blankets pulled far away, and scratches appearing on his arm. Once he looked and saw a three-foot grinning gargoyle-like figure that vanished when he swung at it. A marble-like hit to the neck in daylight was part of the same period.

Date unknown Oklahoma EP 1233

Sasquatch sighting in Oklahoma

On a morning visit to a research area, the witness saw a dark-haired upright figure stand up in a wheat field about 50 yards away and run toward the river bottoms. Wheat about four feet high suggested it was about eight feet tall. The party then followed its path and heard footsteps and knocking or mouth-popping paralleling them on a ridge.

into that fall even, that would have been late summer, into that fall Iowa EP 1230

Vocalization in Iowa

Over late summer into fall the guest and his wife repeatedly heard something in the woods by the painting studio baying, whining and almost crying in the dead of night. It occurred every couple weeks, about half a dozen times, and shining flashlights revealed nothing. The sounds then stopped and did not recur.

that same summer, a year to the week at least of my Stevens State Forest experience Iowa EP 1230

Vocalization in Iowa

The guest had an old friend visiting and they sat by a fire, then walked to the lane where the friend was parked. They heard several sounds like poor impressions of owls, then coyotes, and hills to the west and northwest erupted with many similar callers for almost a minute. The sound then changed again to an indescribable impression before fading, and the friend left.

Howl in Iowa

After moving to a rural property on a river, the guest was outside late at night because he could not sleep. From about a mile and a half away he heard a long sustained howl he compared to the Ohio howl. It did not frighten him because of the distance, and he took it as a sign the creatures were also present there.

Sasquatch sighting in North Carolina

After moving in, the couple heard whistles, whoops, footsteps and had pebbles thrown, with trail cameras failing. On a cold night about a year ago they sat quietly with lights off, heard a group approach talking, then lit them with flashlights. They describe one tall figure by a deck, one smaller figure lying prone that blinked, others peeking from trees, and others slapping buildings as a distraction before all left down a ridge.

The guest describes lifelong activity on the family farm where the grandfather fed the creatures. She recounts seeing watchers at her bedroom window, an arm taking food, a form under a trailer, and a close daytime sighting across the road that sent her under a car. She also reports vocalizations, wood knocks, whoops, rock throwing, freezer raids, chases in fields, and later visits after the property was mostly sold.

about two years ago Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania EP 1217

Sasquatch sighting near Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania

The witness walked down steps to a river fishing spot very early in the morning and watched what he first thought was a bear pulling fish from the water while mumbling and grunting. When a light came on he dropped his rod, the creature stood, turned its torso, showed its teeth, held up a catfish and swayed while slapping the fish. After the witness looked down to grab his rod, the creature quickly disappeared under the river bank.
