Property disturbance in Missouri (2009)

An older woman living alone reported repeated nighttime disturbances around her yard, barn and livestock. A responding officer documented a ripped chicken coop, dents on the barn, a partial handprint, and heard shuffling in the tree line. After the case file, photos and dispatch recordings disappeared and officials told him to drop the case, he was forced to resign.

February 2009 Christiansburg, Miami County, Ohio Class A #33979

Witness has numerous encounters and collects physical evidence over a seven month period near Christianburg

Late at night the witness heard a very large bipedal animal moving through snowy woods to the woodline, breaking branches and small trees, but could see nothing despite moonlight. After listening with his wife from an upstairs window, he searched in the morning and reported large humanlike tracks, a crushed fence, and a dismembered deer with legs stacked by a sitting impression. While photographing the scene, he says a thrown stick struck his head, prompting him to run to the house.

The witness and relatives reported finding two sets of large four-toed footprints in snow that crossed residential yards. One trackway led to a garbage can where bags had been pulled out and torn open, then continued to a neighboring driveway and toward woods and grass. Photographs were taken with a shoe for scale, showing deep impressions larger than the shoe. No creature was seen, and no unusual sounds or odors were noted the prior night.

Paranormal encounter near Chicago, Illinois (2009)

The witness was asked to check a woman's claim of a demon in her attic bedroom.

Returning about ten days later, the house was gone and replaced by a gravel lot, and a neighbor said it had been torn down four years earlier.

Trailer shaken and objects thrown at campers on the north rim of the Grand Canyon

On a Friday night during an archery-hunt camping trip, the witness and a relative sat by the campfire while two unseen presences circled the camp, breaking branches, pacing, and making heavy footsteps. Small rocks and sticks were then thrown into camp, including a softball-sized rock that landed nearby, followed by impacts on a food box and the trailer. Others sheltering in the trailer also heard footsteps, breaking branches, impacts, and a heavy sigh, and later a branch-like object was dragged across the trailer roof.

While camped for an elk hunt, the witness was asleep in a staked tent when he felt it being steadily dragged.

27 July 2008 St. Paul, Neosho County, Kansas Class B #27779

Possible track found and strange occurences on the Neosho River

On a summer night in 2008 the witness was night-fishing by a dam near family cabins when he heard rhythmic splashes crossing the shallow river about 100 feet away and felt intense fear, abandoning his gear to hide in a nearby cabin. Around the same night a relative sitting on a cabin deck smelled a strong death-like odor, heard movement on the stairs and under the cabin, and felt the cabin rock hard enough to knock a VCR and tape rack over. The two compared accounts the next morning on the drive home and concluded the cause was a bigfoot, keeping it to themselves.

Grandson relates grandparents' accounts in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest

The grandfather was walking the perimeter of a family property and stopped by a creek where he encountered an intensely foul odor described as rotten meat and body odor. He found droppings in the middle of a large fallen tree bridging the creek where he doubted elk could have left them, and later noted apples and chokecherries were missing from trees that wildlife normally does not fully strip. The grandfather's dogs were unusually apprehensive, and the submitter suggested the odor came from a bigfoot.
