Two friends get spooked by a possible encounter near Norris Lake
Two companions rode an ATV to a clearing by a lake and built a large fire at night. Over the evening they heard deliberate footfalls, pacing and stick breaks in the treeline about sixty yards away and noticed the woods go silent. After the witness knocked on a tree and made a whoop call, they heard knocks in reply and then a long deep guttural growl. They rode toward the sound without seeing anything, then put out the fire and left feeling watched and frightened.
Howl in Texas
Sitting at camp after dark, the group heard a series of loud howl-scream-growl vocals that started hundreds of yards away and came much closer in paced intervals. The tellers said it sounded like a werewolf from a movie and unlike coyote or wolf behavior. A track was later found and cast about 100 yards from camp.
Tracks in Florida
The guest walked off trail with a group to an area thought to hold a family and found Bigfoot-like prints including small ones that ended abruptly. The prints did not match black bear tracks. Casts were made but a controlled burn was done before they could be retrieved.
Tracks
After seeing deer flush from a steep hollow, the guest climbed to a small creek bed and found toe prints, partial prints, and five to six tracks.

Sasquatch sighting near Chattanooga, Tennessee
While riding on the interstate, the witness saw a wide, large figure from chest to waist watching traffic and shaking its head rapidly before jumping back out of view. He later returned, hiked the muddy banks and found barefoot prints in several places, made casts, logged GPS and posted photos.

Night time sighting of large bipedal animal by motorist near Babbitt, Minnesota
The witness was driving home at night with family members when a headlight illuminated a very tall, hairy, dark figure crossing the road in front of the car. He tried to point and shout but was initially unable to speak, then asked a relative if she had seen it. The relative had been occupied and had not seen the figure but later said she believed him. The witness reports vivid memory of the event and recurring dreams about it.
Vocalization in Ohio
Woken by crashing and the dog barking, the witness heard a juvenile on the porch beating the deck and plucking the air conditioner while an adult gave gibberish instructions and the juvenile answered with tongue clicks. Then something wailed on the dog box. In the morning he found a twisted tree, shredded sapling and tracks and made a cast. With a flashlight he saw something large and black moving up the hill.
Scream in Texas
The neighbor, initially a non-believer, reports ongoing hollering, screaming, grunting, monkey sounds and whistles from multiple directions. Sticks and limbs were thrown at them on a tractor, and whistles answered post-driving. The property shows stripped bark, snapped and twisted trees, a trail-camera image and a footprint at a low-water crossing.
Tracks in Virginia
While retrieving her puppy in daylight, the guest carried him back through the lower side yard and found many footprints in mud of four distinct sizes, some two inches deep, showing toe ridges. She powdered and photographed them, measured examples about seventeen by nine inches and thirteen by eight inches with a sixty-three-inch stride in one running sequence, and made three plaster casts despite inexperience.
Tracks
Researchers visiting the property over about two years reported finding different-sized footprints, thermal-video figures that popped up and down in grass, rocks thrown while hiking, wood knocks and rock clacks, and a juvenile crouched in grass that one researcher approached. They interpret size differences as four individuals including two juveniles and two adults. They also collected casts, audio, and other trace evidence.
Sasquatch sighting in Washington
A researcher patrolling a closed watershed followed fresh tracks uphill in mud and filmed a subject as it walked away. He later cast the prints, which another researcher regarded as among the best ever. The teller defends the footage against claims the tracks were faked.
Odor
Over several months the household noticed episodic skunk-like odors, distinct tree knocks, grunts and owl-like mimicry, nightly dog barking and motion lights tripping. A chain-link dog kennel was found shoved inward with no recent bear sign. Muffled conversation-like sounds were heard behind the house with no footprints found.
Sasquatch sighting in Oregon
At a rural house on the Oregon coast the household experienced repeated night howls, growls, talking-like sounds, dogs reacting, motion lights, a hand smudge, and large footprints in hard gravel. Young children repeatedly described dark hairy figures with flat noses and red eyes pawing or scratching at a bedroom window, motioning to come outside, and disappearing and reappearing.
Vocalization in Arizona
Students at a community college in Arizona heard yelling and screaming from behind the college that scared them. A maintenance man also heard it, and a visiting couple brought casts and pictures to the conference.
Sasquatch sighting in Missouri
Less than a month before the interview four researchers walked across a grassy field on a Missouri property at night to retrieve footprint casts. The guest stopped to scan with a thermal camera and recorded a round bright head rising from tall grass by the creek. It dropped and reappeared four times, then vanished, and a later visit found a wallowed grass shelter opening to the creek where a comparison man's head looked half as large.
Tracks near Island Park
When the witness was 12, he went with his father and others to build a fishing pond by blasting a small canyon near Island Park. The next morning he and his father walked down and found large bare footprints in fresh mud on a game trail. The prints measured about 16 and three-quarter inches long with about a 45-inch step, ran about 75 yards across the mud and continued about 200 yards before the adults decided to turn back. One landowner later covered a print and made casts, which the witness never saw.
Tracks in Louisiana
The witness was walking a road through the family property to look for trespassers. Just off the road on a cow trail to a pond he found a single deep human-like track in hard dry sandy ground. He covered it and brought game officials who photographed it and said it was not human or bear.
Growl near Livingston, Texas
A few weeks later the guest returned to the same area with three companions and camped in the pines. After limb-snapping and a deep primate-like call, something approached the tent at night, growled in front and then circled it with light footsteps on pine needles. At daylight they found a large footprint-like impression inches behind the tent where one companion's head had been.
