Early morning visitor forces couple to flee camp near Gilbertsville
The witness and his wife were sleeping in a tent at a remote campground when nocturnal animal calls erupted and then suddenly stopped. They then heard loud heavy bipedal footsteps with cracking wood approaching their camp. The witness searched the treeline with a flashlight and vehicle high beams but saw nothing, then the entity ran away crashing through limbs and exhaling loudly. At daylight they found broken branches and bare-foot slide marks, then broke camp and left.
Possible howls are heard for several weeks near Pine Knot
The witness reports repeatedly hearing loud yells or howls late at night while visiting a companion's residence, occurring every two to three nights over about a month and a half and including the evening of September 26, 2014. Dogs are reported to bark after the sounds, and a musky dog-like scent is noticed when the sounds are close. No visual details of the source are given for this ongoing occurrence.
Father and son have possible encounter in a deer blind near Woodbine
The witness and his son were deer hunting from a blind in darkness before dawn. After the son woke the sleeping witness, they heard something large moving fast through brush behind the blind. It screamed, stomped hard enough to shake the ground, snapped limbs, and grunted and growled before leaving quickly. The pair then left the area immediately.
Highpitched vocalizations heard.
The witness and a relative were sitting outside talking on a mid-summer night in 1995 when they heard very loud high-pitched noises. The witness claims lifelong hunting and camping experience and says the sounds matched no known animal calls. Darkness prevented determining the direction, and a daytime search found no ground or tree sign. The witness later concluded the sounds matched alleged Bigfoot trail recordings heard on television.
Bowhunters get unexpected response near Boston
Three bowhunting companions were camped overnight in an abandoned barn. After the witness made rabbit-distress calls with cellophane, a distant low moan grew into a loud mournful roar twice, followed by total silence from dogs and insects. The men remained silent in their sleeping bags until morning and then packed up and left without hunting.
Matching vocalizations heard a decade apart
In August 1988 on a rural farm with woods and creeks, the witness and a relative stood outside after dark to listen for a strange sound. They heard loud cries alternating from woods on both sides of the road where two creeks met, suggesting two animals, while noticing a strong musty odor and unusual silence of normal night sounds. Neither saw anything, and a next-day search along the creek banks found no tracks. Days later they felt the cries matched a vocalization heard in a Sasquatch movie.
