Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky (1980)

In 1980 two men claiming to be Smithsonian field agents visited the grandmother's farm for two days after magazine coverage. They toured the garden and orchard, noted twisted limbs, cast footprints and a supposed sitting impression, collected hair and produce, and recorded audio. At night the family showed them figures with a spotlight, with up to three seen, and the visitors played a scream recording that was followed by distant chatter.

Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky (1975)

The guest's mother arrived at his grandmother's farm at night and was hurried inside after being told a tall hairy creature was nearby. Family members then used a spotlight to show her a figure stepping out of the light along the tree line. Over the following years the family reported repeated nighttime visits marked by forest silence, strong odor, screams and chatter, plus damage to orchard trees and garden crops.

Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky (1969)

Two lifelong friends were target shooting with small-caliber rifles along a river while a nearby reservoir was filling and flooding caves. After one rifle jammed, they returned to their car when they heard limbs snapping and saw small trees swaying and breaking. They circled back to the riverbank clearing and came face to face with a hair-covered creature standing on a deadfall, which one of them shot multiple times in the chest. The creature fell silent, then revived and ran one way while the two men fled the other, later tracking it and sparking local monster lore.

Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky

The guest's hunter uncle joined family members to look for the creature near the pond after dark. A figure stood up very close with its arms raised and the uncle fired a carbine, believing he hit it under the arms. The creature made a loud noise and fled, leaving fatty bloody material but no blood trail, only footprints and broken vegetation.

Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky

The guest's grandfather was sitting on his vehicle eating sardines when a grayish hairy figure appeared and stared for several minutes with only slight swaying. He set the food down, left, and found it gone the next day, then left food there about every two weeks and saw the figure a few times. On the last visit he saw a large black one with a younger one, the large one shaking trees and throwing things while the young one left, after which he stopped going there.

Property disturbance near Elkhorn City, Kentucky

Before the ridge sighting the family had biscuits taken from an oven pan twice when no children were present, and whole hams disappearing from the smokehouse. One late night chickens made a ruckus and a small dog refused to go out. A flashlight search found wide chisel-like scratches on a sassafras tree starting above eight feet and running down to chest level.

A neighboring farmer told the guest that rocks would hit his barn roof while he worked inside. He later saw a creature standing on the hill across the pond and photographed it, also photographing a track line in snow with very long strides.
