Sasquatch sighting near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania (1921)

A woman saw a four-foot object moving along a rear fence and fetched a neighbor, who shot it with a shotgun and saw it drop. When approached, it jumped to hind legs and chased the shooter back into the house, then left toward another town. Strange footprints were later reported nearby.

Silhouette in Pennsylvania

The guest's sister and her friend saw a tall stocky silhouette watching them from the edge of the woods by cattle fields while on a trampoline at night. They froze, then fled inside. The next day large footprints were found from the woods to the house and muddy handprints on a sliding door.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
