Homeless camper reports stalking by a bigfoot near Great Egg Harbor River

The witness was stealth camping alone in woods near town. Late at night a powerful foul odor filled the tent, followed by bipedal footsteps circling the tent, breathing and sniffing at the tarp. After the witness shouted, the visitor growled, walked away on two feet, and wood-on-wood knocks were heard as the odor faded. The witness left the area the next morning.

Campers retreat to their vehicles due to a loud unknown vocalization near High Point State Park

A group camping overnight in a wooded campground heard a very loud, close vocalization that began as a growl and shifted into a prolonged howl. Frightened by the unfamiliar sound, the group retreated to their vehicles for safety. Years later the reporter concluded the sound resembled televised alleged Sasquatch calls and did not match black bear sounds.

Possible Nightime Encounter In Wharton State Forest

When the witness was 14, he camped alone in a forested area and noticed something in the brush paralleling him as he returned to camp near dark. The presence circled the camp and later approached the tent, producing an extremely loud scream followed by growls and chatter, then retreated after the frightened witness yelled back. The witness stayed awake all night, left at first light, and never saw what made the sounds.
