Vocalization

The guest responded to sounds outside the same cabin property with his two sons.

Horses that had huddled in a far corner returned to graze, and a small dog stopped barking from under the house once the area was cleared.

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.

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.

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.
