Footsteps near Perry, Oklahoma

The witness and a friend were quail hunting on the family property and heard steps following them through dense woods. After crossing a fence they watched a tall hairy biped step over the fence and move between trees to watch them before heading toward a creek. About an hour later the witness returned with older female relatives and saw a different-colored hairy leg and foot watching them from behind trees near the road.

Sasquatch sighting in South Carolina

While walking a dirt road home at night after shining fields, the pair heard a loud exhaling rush from a ditch and saw bushes erupt. They observed a large dark two-legged silhouette cross a moonlit cotton field with heavy footfalls felt in the ground. They ran to the house and later were dismissed when they told others.

Footsteps in Texas

A few years before the interview the guest walked a forest road at night in deep East Texas to see if an animal would follow him. After hiding by cane and waiting between pines, he fired his thermally sighted rifle at a heat signature following him. The animal screamed loudly, crashed through brush and splashed across a creek, and was tracked for two days with no blood or hair found.

Footsteps in Louisiana

On his first trip to the Louisiana area the guest sat all night in a tripod stand over a clear-cut meadow on a fence line. About midnight he heard heavy bipedal footsteps approach from behind without a light, then cross a barbed-wire fence. Loud clicking began and was answered from both sides as the animals moved away through brush.

The witness and a companion were deer hunting in the evening from a ground blind and a nearby tree stand in wooded ravines. The woods went silent before heavy footsteps that could be felt, grunting sounds, and two large trees falling without wind occurred. The pair left early without seeing the source.

Tracks in Oregon

Earlier in the same season the group was camped overnight in a basin while elk hunting. Something circled the camp at night and frightened guard dogs that normally showed no fear. The next day the men followed large barefoot tracks with very long strides and a damaged toe from behind the camp to a canyon.

Scream

The guest brought his wife to the aggressive area. Walking out, a deafening scream knocked his wife down, heard only by them though three others were nearby. She wanted to leave but stayed. That night things walked around, opened a cooler, and at 5 a.m. dropped rebar with a clang and fled.

Around 2 a.m. the guest heard clicking and movement around tents and vehicles. After hours of activity, something lifted a Dutch oven lid, charged 30 feet, pushed a fist through his tent window and then pushed its face inches from his. He held a pistol, heard a voice telling him to kick his legs, did so, and the group left chirping. Urine, prints and handprints were found.

With eight to ten people on a hillside, the group heard something run 100 yards below through aspens at high speed breaking limbs while screaming and vocalizing. It then ran behind them grunting like a gorilla and slapping trees, continuing for hours until morning.

Sasquatch sighting in Texas

The witness, then a teenager, drove to a ranch at night to hunt raccoons with a dog. The dog acted fearful, livestock were huddled, and the woods were silent before a foul odor, heavy thumps, a branch break, growls and a scream occurred. The witness then saw large red eyes and a huge upright figure at close range, froze in terror and prayed, then fled to the truck without clear memory of the retreat, later finding the dog on the road and abandoning the rifle.

Footsteps in Illinois

A woman recalls being 12 in southern Illinois and picking berries with her mother up toward a bluff and into deep woods. As they walked she repeatedly heard crunching steps following them, which her mother dismissed as rabbits and urged her to keep going without looking back. The host notes the mother's behavior suggests she may have known more than she said.

Sasquatch sighting

The witness with two companions followed pig trails to a washed-out area during the day. Two large brown figures with light streaks near the ears were seen about ninety yards away, one turning its head between the other figure and the group. Another figure was later noticed closer and one flanking to the side on video review. The group heard only brush sounds as the figures paralleled them out to a road.

Footsteps near Kern County

About two weeks later the same three men returned to a nearby picnic ground on the same river to night fish again. They heard rustling like small animals in leaves that seemed to circle them, followed by unintelligible whisper-like voices that felt very close and could not be located. Feeling the same intense fear as before, they stood back-to-back with firearms then withdrew to their car and left the gear, later learning from a ranger that the bend was where drowned bodies were recovered.

Wood knock in Ohio

The following Friday during a distant football game whose sound echoed through the ravine, the witness heard intense tree beating and stomping like elephants. A plastic sled was beaten against a tree. He hung his phone out the window so an outside contact could hear.
