Footsteps in New York

The guest camped several days alone with his dog, noticing hairy scat, twisted saplings forming a gate, and feeling watched. On the third night the forest went silent, footsteps approached, loud breathing and an ape-like vocalization occurred outside the tent, followed by exchanged fake owl sounds and a spinning yin-yang light with a brief vision inside the tent. In the morning disturbed dog food was attributed to a raccoon.

Scream in Washington

The guest was part of a small team doing nighttime map-and-compass navigation over several nights with no weapons. Team members repeatedly felt followed, heard high-pitched screams and footstep echoes that stopped and started with them, and noted the follower moved far more gracefully than they could. The guest came to believe the follower could not have been a person moving that smoothly in the forest.

Footsteps near Honobi, Oklahoma

The guest moved the empty tent to another nearby ridge and left a recorder by it. Playback the next day again captured something running by. He said he could think of no natural explanation for the same result on three occasions.

Footsteps near Honobi, Oklahoma

A decade later the guest returned alone and set up an empty tent about a mile past his camp with the recorder in the woods behind it. The next-day playback captured the same sound of something running by the tent. He described the tight steps as possibly a young individual.

Footsteps near Honobi, Oklahoma

The guest and a group left an empty tent with a recorder inside on a ridge in Oklahoma. After about 30 silent minutes the recording captured movement, snapping twigs and small pebbles hitting or missing the tent. Then something was heard running hard toward and right past the tent.

Sasquatch sighting near Smithsville, Oklahoma

The witness joined a group of about eight on a three-night expedition in southeastern Oklahoma to let the beings come to them. The group heard grunting, whistling, chatter, footsteps and close tree-breaking, had pebbles and a rock thrown, and saw large upright black shadow figures with night vision and naked eyes. One figure was seen behind a truck and one coworker was startled by movement in brush, with no one seriously hurt.

Sasquatch sighting

At age eleven the guest and two older girls returned to their plywood fort in false dawn to find the woods unnaturally quiet. Something large walked directly in front of the small opening in five loud bipedal steps, blocking the light, and crossed about ten yards over a creek. They hid then fled and never slept there again.

Tracks in Ohio

While camping at the primitive site the guest documented a possible footprint pointing toward camp. After dark the group heard a loud monotone whistle from brush nearby. On the first two mornings before dawn slow footsteps circled very close to the tent for about 20 minutes.

Footsteps near Wolfe County

On a third overnight stay with only three people including a skeptical peer, the group waited until about 2:30 a.m. The creature approached more quietly along the same path to the same tree, peeked out three times briefly showing an arm and eyes, then withdrew and left up the hollow. The skeptic was disappointed by the brief view and the witness decided not to return.

Footsteps near Wolfe County

The witness returned to the same rock house about two weeks later and camped overnight. Around 1:30 a.m. the same heavy footsteps approached the same poplar tree, the creature peeked out a few times showing red eyeshine, then left without stepping fully out and without making much noise.

Whoop in Oklahoma

About two weeks later the guest camped overnight by the creek with a friend and a younger cousin. The two companions reported a dark figure throwing a stick at their four-wheelers, then the group heard heavy bipedal steps, left fruit and meat on a log that disappeared, and had oranges thrown back at them. They abandoned camp, and next morning found the tent door open, the mattress dragged out, and large muddy smudges inside the tent.

Vocalization near Collins, Mississippi

Two seasons before the main encounter, the witness got lost after dark in rainy conditions and followed a creek bed to exit. He walked close to unseen animals that scattered with unusual grunts, then heard what sounded like several two-legged walkers flanking him on both banks before they stopped behind him. At the time he told others it was hogs, but later concluded it was a group of creatures watching him.

Movement only in Oklahoma

Three separate visitor groups noticed a large unseen mover: the son-in-law heard something charge through the forest while stargazing, the sister-in-law heard a large animal run in daytime, and strangers saw movement off the trail. Separately the witness listened with a parabolic dish hearing limb snapping, brush movement, and metallic banging as if the cabin area was being torn apart.

Footsteps in Oklahoma

After setting recorders and cameras, the witness got a 20-minute recording of something walking around, touching, and repeatedly pulling a bungee-mounted recorder without damage. Game cameras captured possible high eyeshine and a night video where the background distorted as an unseen shape moved toward a tree stand.

Footsteps in Oklahoma

The daughter, staying in the guest house, felt a loud ground thud vibrate the floor and sofa, heard loud metallic banging at night near farm implements, heard walking in the woodline each morning that stopped at the fence, and felt hits on the bedroom wall opposite her head that repeated when she resumed a movie. Searches found no one.
