Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky

The day after the garden sighting, the mother's brother thought he saw something in his front yard, stepped onto his porch, and faced a large creature about twenty feet away that gestured as if to come here. He went back inside for a firearm and it was gone. Men with dogs pursued it into the hills, lost two dogs, saw its silhouette on the mountaintop after dark, then left.

Christmas night, two nights in a row Missouri #0e8839a9-96b6-434f-9407-c62611fc8921

Sasquatch sighting in Missouri

Two partners camped in a van with a friend and dogs for deer season. On the first night they saw an upright figure by a car that vanished in a few steps and was not the friend's companion. The next night dogs reacted to knocking at the window, a pumpkin had been moved without marks, and large human-like handprints with long fingers were found on the van.

Woman tells of her husband's close encounter as a young man with "The Hermit" near Huntsville

About 1960, the submitter's husband and two school friends were spending a weekend night inside a relative's cabin when they felt watched and saw a tall hair-covered figure silhouetted by the open refrigerator light. The boys shouted and split up to flee to the car, with the husband reporting something running close behind him that he could hear breathing and smell strongly like moldy skunk. In hindsight he wondered whether the figure was also fleeing and had simply taken the same path.

At a remote drop-zone field, the neighbor spent about 72 hours seeing black human-like shadows moving in the wood line. Other soldiers also shouted about seeing something huge running away.

About two weeks after the bedside entity, the witness was again alone in bed when he heard his loud-clicking door open. A very tall shadow outline wearing a wide-brim hat stood in the doorway. His vision went dark, then the door was shut and the figure was gone.

Sasquatch sighting in Texas

The witness was camping with his uncle and two cousins when they saw a panning light and several fast black shadows cross a pasture. They challenged a suspected poacher, then heard clear bipedal footsteps outside their tent during rain. Lightning illuminated a massive man-like shadow on the tent with very long arms, which then ran away, prompting them to abandon camp for the farmhouse.

Sasquatch sighting in Michigan

The witness sat alone in a raised blind before shooting hours and felt watched as the woods went eerily quiet. A yearling doe ran to his blind followed by other panting deer. Through his scope he saw a distant silhouette moving slowly through a valley about 200 to 250 yards away, which he believed was not a hunter.

Whoop in Florida

The witness set out alone on a multi-day hike through swamp trail and camped overnight in a hammock.

The next day the witness found large tracks, then encountered large dark hairy figures on and near the trail, one of which followed closely. The witness fled in panic to a highway rest stop and required medical care, reporting lasting distress and nightmares.

Tree break in Massachusetts

As a child the witness was scouting deer sign with his father when the family dog ran ahead and began yipping. They heard branches breaking and the dog go silent, and the father drew his sidearm and backed out with the child. The next day they returned with another officer and found the dead dog under cover near the father's tree stand, and the father said a huge Sasquatch-like beast was responsible.

The witness camped with the sibling and a friend from the city in a clearing containing moose bones and antlers. After midnight they heard branching breaking and multiple bipedal-sounding runners circling camp in the dark, fired rifles without effect, found the dog terrified in the tent and felt something touch a tent, then saw large shadows in firelight. They packed out carrying the dog while being followed down the trail, with one silent individual flushing very close, until reaching the car.

Sasquatch sighting near Huntsville, Alabama

Two friends sat in a parked car at night on a power-line trail waiting for others. The witness saw a large silhouette block the moonlit trail beside a low-hanging limb, then take a couple steps across. Only two thick legs were visible, estimated seven feet tall with a very deep chest, and it struck the limb with an audible crack. Both occupants fled in the car and met their friends coming up.

Sasquatch sighting near Pine Ridge, South Dakota

Years later the witness was camping at a ceremonial gathering on a reservation when he repeatedly felt watched going to the restroom at night. An older man walked him away from the fire toward the cook shack to look into the dark, where they both saw two massive shadowy upright shapes standing at the edge of camp watching. The older man said such beings are drawn to ceremonies to observe and protect, and they remained at a distance without approaching or making sound.

Silhouette in Indiana

The witness relays a story from a friend who as a child played in the same woods and repeatedly saw a large black shape. The figure stayed in the woods and ran deeper when approached, so the children never got close. The friend called the figure Blackie.
