Sasquatch sighting in Tennessee (2018)

The witness hiked with family members on a cold damp spring day to a creek and cave area. After noticing a large tree down across the trail, the group encountered a hair-covered primate-like creature that peered over the tree while rocks were thrown toward them. The witness froze during prolonged eye contact, felt detached and aware of the creature's curiosity, and was eventually pulled away.

Witness relates rock throwing encounter while camped along the Buffalo River

The witness was solo canoe-camping on a river and went to the water's edge after dinner. He heard splashes, saw a large rock fly through the air and land near him, then shined a light and saw eyes for about two seconds before they vanished. He fired a pistol with no response and left camp for home.

Possible vocalizations heard near Pigeon Forge

The witness and her husband were relaxing on the back porch of a mountain cabin in the evening when they heard prolonged loud howling from across the mountain to the southeast.

Sasquatch sighting in Tennessee (1970)

The witness, recently out of the military, was fly-fishing with three relatives in a steep, remote river gorge. He turned to see an upright animal at close range that quickly climbed the steep bank to the ridgeline. The group then heard extremely loud guttural vocalizations and huffs, saw movement on the ridge, and had a large rock land in the water near them. They left at dusk and later agreed among themselves it had not been a bear despite one relative's dismissive explanation.

Animal behaviour in Tennessee

One evening almost dark while babysitting and on the phone, the guest let dogs out. They barked toward trees by a graveyard then fled terrified to the porch with cats. Something then struck the back of the house hard. She believes at least two creatures were present.

Rock throwing in Tennessee

After moving in with her son's family, the guest and her daughter-in-law walked toward the porch one summer evening and were pelted with small gravel-like rocks. One hit legs and one landed on a shoe. No local animal could throw rocks, so she suspected Sasquatch.

Wood knock near Linsdale, Tennessee

On the last night out, the pair sat back-to-back on a man-made ridge and made knocks, howls and other calls. Responses approached, then stopped, followed by heavy bipedal steps and rocks thrown from the front on both sides. They threw rocks back for many minutes until a rock came from the direction they had entered, making the guest conclude they were surrounded.

Wood knock near Linsdale, Tennessee

Chatter in Tennessee

The witness entered a drawn bow-hunt area before daylight and heard chattering like a samurai movie from two individuals. Calls and flashlight produced silence, then movement split to both sides of the trail as he climbed down. As he left, unseen individuals followed, mumbled, threw rocks and sticks, and struck his truck before rangers moved him to another area.

Partial sighting in Tennessee

Over later visits to the same woods the witness and friends found a hair-covered shape curled like a stump, had a softball-sized rock thrown at their group, found a hung bait bucket punched open and emptied, felt hot breath and heard a grunt behind them with nothing seen, and found logs arranged like benches that gave an overwhelming feeling of dread. The witness also relayed a friend's solo report of something large jumping tree to tree with a shadow passing overhead.
