Sasquatch sighting in Massachusetts

The witness, an HVAC apprentice, waited alone in the back of a work van at a rural house in western Massachusetts while his coworker stepped away and a boiler timer ran. He heard faint breathing and a light tap on the van, then saw a very tall dark figure hunched to peer through a 3-4 inch gap in the rear door and locked eyes with it for several seconds. The eye appeared pitch black then briefly glowed white-gray, apparently reflecting the coworker's headlamp, before a loud boiler boom startled the figure. It fled in three loud steps across gravel, grass and leaves that both men heard, left a sour wet-towel odor, and the elderly homeowner responded that local animals are friendly.

During a period when bucks acted unusually spooked, the witness waited at a stump until dark. He heard a man-like cough nearby then jumbled talking like two or three people, but saw no one and no lights. The voices seemed to wait until he passed then move back along the road he had come down.

Howl in Oregon

While glassing with a companion days before elk season, the witness heard a loud cow-like calling Howl from a steep creek bottom. The sound moved to the ridge top in about five to ten minutes, far faster than he felt a person could climb. It stopped at the top and was not identified as elk or bear.

Sasquatch sighting near Cherokee, North Carolina

About two football fields from the prior laughing incident, the witness saw bright red eyes about three feet off the ground that looked like a crouched mass. As he approached it stood to tower over him, revealing black hair, gray skin on face, chest and palms, and wide shoulders. It growl-barked, stared at him, then backed silently into the darkness and vanished.

May 8th of last year Arkansas #27e30160-45eb-48a4-8068-03292c13d2de

Sasquatch sighting in Arkansas

A couple set up a tent late at night in a small Arkansas river campground and noticed broken trees, a single large glowing eye by the river, then two large eyes watching from uphill. After going to sleep they were awakened by bipedal footsteps, owl-like calls turning to chatter, pebbles hitting the tent, touches to the tent and truck, and movement around camp. The man blew an air horn, they fled in their truck, later returned in daylight to find large footprints and discovered his phone had recorded sounds through the night.
