Wood knock in Arkansas (2022)

Later that day the pair camped on a narrow gravel bar and experienced harassment all night until first light. They heard tree knocks, a loud yell, singing, deep chatter, whistles, laughter, a log snapping behind the tents, and multiple rocks thrown from the ridge into the river. They set up lights, stayed armed, ran fire watches, partially broke camp to show intent to leave, then launched the kayaks at daylight as a final rock fell.

Kayakers report camp intimidation all night long on Lower Buffalo River

Two campers floating and fishing the Lower Buffalo River heard loud monkey-like vocalizations from the bank and later camped on a gravel bar. Through the night they reported repeated wood knocks, yells, chatter, whistles, a tree snap, and cantaloupe-sized rocks landing in the river from the ridge across from camp. They lit the camp, kept fire watch in shifts, and at dawn packed and paddled out after a final rock fell in front of them.

Sasquatch sighting in Arkansas (2017)

The guest was alone on a ladder deer stand before sunrise when he heard movement and vocal exchanges between two creatures. A large hairy creature stayed partly behind a cedar tree about 35 yards away, showing an arm, leg, foot and left side of its face. Fearing for his life, he shot it just above the knee, heard a loud scream, and watched it flee very fast; he later recovered the bullet with hair and saw blood.

26 November 2015 Searcy, White County, Arkansas Class A #55410

Deer hunter encounters several Bigfoots, possibly a family unit, near Searcy

The witness was hunting alone at dusk when a rock was thrown from the tree line. He scanned the trees with a gun-mounted light and saw a tall upright creature behind a large oak that growled and screamed, prompting him to fire at the tree. The creature fled bipedally across a meadow toward a valley. Afterwards the witness found hair and blood on the tree where the creature had stood.

Silhouette in Arkansas (2011)

While road hunting with a spotlight, the witness and a friend spotted eyes and a dark silhouette in a field and the friend shot it with a .22. It did not flee but rocked side to side, screamed extremely loudly, and stepped toward them. They left when another truck approached. Next day they found blood and realized it had stood in a deep ditch, implying tall height.

Sasquatch sighting in Arkansas (2001)

The guest was on a solo boar hunt and camping in a primitive lean-to in Arkansas. At night he heard a wet low huff, then a large hairy biped tore out of the brush and charged toward his camp. He hid in the brush, watched it sniff the air and look toward him, then fled on foot and returned at daylight to collect his gear and leave.

Three fisherman hear thrashing about and loud vocalizations

Three people fishing from a boat along a densely vegetated shoreline heard rustling and thrashing suggesting a very large animal nearby. They then heard a very loud, chilling shrill that frightened them, prompting them to leave quickly. As they left, they continued to hear the animal moving rapidly through dense woods uphill and repeating the shrill at intervals until it was roughly a quarter to half mile away.

November 1996 Fouke, Miller County, Arkansas Class A #26100

Truck driver sees a tall red eyed creature south of Fouke near the Sulphur River

The witness was driving an 18-wheeler north on Highway 71 near the Sulphur River around 1 a.m. when headlights revealed a trunk-like shape with red shining eyes on the roadside by the water. As the truck got closer, the shape turned and walked on two legs into the swampy brush with large quick steps. As the truck passed the spot, a loud scream was heard over the engine noise with the windows closed, and the witness continued driving without stopping.

Vocalizations heard on remote piece of Arkansas property

The witness was building a shack on remote forested property and stepped onto the deck around 8 p.m. A loud, grating scream came from a ridge about 300 yards away in direct line of sight but in darkness. Startled, the witness went to the truck and found the dog curled and shaking violently enough to shake the truck, then left immediately.

They waited until sunrise, moved a short distance, then left the area and did not return. Neither person saw the source and they reported no tracks or sign.

Scream near Reeder, Arkansas

After the road sighting the witness continued to a flooded creek to set duck decoys. He heard unusually loud and persistent hog-like squeals circling at a constant distance, then the woods went silent and a very loud, long scream directed at him caused intense fear. He abandoned his decoys and ran to his truck and later told a friend he thought he had seen Bigfoot.

this summer after moving Eureka Springs, Arkansas #494c91ec-8f0d-49f2-bdb7-68edf56fff2d

Tracks near Eureka Springs, Arkansas

After moving to a remote wooded property, the family found a very clear large human-like footprint with toes that was photographed with a tape measure. On separate occasions the child experienced a rock thrown past him near a creek, faint whooping, small trees moving together, a high scream-like whoop followed by a tree being pushed over, and the adults heard trees breaking and splashing into a pond. Dogs that normally chase sounds fled back to the house during these events.
