After going back inside and leaving again, the witness heard footsteps in the dark and saw a huge dark upright figure moving along the fence and driveway by a pond, later noticing a foul odor and disturbed leaves in the area.

when I was about eight, maybe eight and a half, nine Cherokee, Swain County, North Carolina #gid://art19-episode-locator/V0/uG8PrhsFryaaeMYprZosW-i7FiGWl0UugW09yO5T7j8

Sasquatch sighting near Cherokee, North Carolina

A few years later the guest was playing inside near dusk while the father was dressing a deer outside. A shadow paced past the front window, then the creature screamed and pounded the house until its arm broke through the glass. The father ran out with a shotgun, argued and exchanged cries with it for nearly half an hour, then fired. The father later had the grandfather bring a truck, removed the body, and years later said he shot it in the face three times.

Sasquatch sighting near Boone, North Carolina

A year before Minnesota the guide and a companion got lost looking for a waterfall and at twilight saw a very large upright figure stomping in a creek below the trail. They ran to camp and heard popping branch breaks all around through the night and slept in the vehicle. In the morning the bear hang had been untied and lowered and only fresh produce was missing.

Sasquatch sighting in North Carolina

As children playing behind a newly placed trailer in the evening, the witness and his two brothers heard a loud scream and saw a black hairy creature in a nearby tree. The branch broke and the creature fell about 12 to 15 feet, landing with barely bent legs before walking toward them. The children fled to the trailer, and two hid in an old freezer chest where the creature huffed at them through the lid before walking away.

Sasquatch sighting near Hendersonville, North Carolina

Four people camped in a van by the lake and walked up a logging trail with torches. The dog ran ahead and fled yelping to the house. Something gray and bulky crossed the trail, then something crashed from the trees, blew out the torch, and loomed over them as a dark mass with outstretched arms. They fled to the van, later heard something walking around and scratching the van, and next morning found scratch marks through paint.

the morning after evening shot of deformed buck North Carolina #b51f7e7c-1e8a-4f98-baae-45f0c86c5183

Growl in North Carolina

After evening-shooting a large deformed buck that ran into the woods, the guest returned at dawn and crawled into a low briar tunnel to follow blood. A tremendous growl vibrated through him, heavy stomping approached, and a towering shadow loomed over his back with visible flexing fingers. He talked calmly while backing out, then fled. Two days later he found only the deer's ripped-off head with crumbling bone.
