Sasquatch sighting near Van Buren County

The witness went out on a snowy early-winter morning to check horses that were screaming and running in circles. At the end of the barn lot under trees she confronted a rogue Bigfoot at very close range and ordered it to leave her rescued horse alone. The creature released a powerful odor that made her unable to breathe, and she was dragged back to the barn by her gelding and was ill with breathing problems for a long time.

Wood knock near Van Buren County

While exploring an unused trail, the witness knocked on trees and received a wood-knock response from the treeline. As they turned, they heard an exasperated-like sound from the opposite side. They left the area but returned later and reported continued exchanges.

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
