Horses, goats and other livestock were found dead, corrals and barn doors were torn, gardens were ripped down, and a gut pile was left on the grandfather's porch. The grandfather was once seen firing a rifle at a creature in his corral, and coordinated disturbances were reported at multiple homes in one night until the family moved away.

Sasquatch sighting near Cherokee, North Carolina

A few years later the guest was playing inside near dusk while the father was dressing a deer outside. A shadow paced past the front window, then the creature screamed and pounded the house until its arm broke through the glass. The father ran out with a shotgun, argued and exchanged cries with it for nearly half an hour, then fired. The father later had the grandfather bring a truck, removed the body, and years later said he shot it in the face three times.

Sasquatch sighting near Boone, North Carolina

A year before Minnesota the guide and a companion got lost looking for a waterfall and at twilight saw a very large upright figure stomping in a creek below the trail. They ran to camp and heard popping branch breaks all around through the night and slept in the vehicle. In the morning the bear hang had been untied and lowered and only fresh produce was missing.

Sasquatch sighting in North Carolina

Later the same evening the three boys were playing in their bedroom when they shone a toy light across the window and saw a large brown hairy face blocking the moonlight. The witness dove over the bed as the creature moved to the back door and smashed a cinder block through it, leaving a hole large enough for a leg. The family packed and left that night, with the adults later dismissing it as a relative in a costume.

Sasquatch sighting in North Carolina

As children playing behind a newly placed trailer in the evening, the witness and his two brothers heard a loud scream and saw a black hairy creature in a nearby tree. The branch broke and the creature fell about 12 to 15 feet, landing with barely bent legs before walking toward them. The children fled to the trailer, and two hid in an old freezer chest where the creature huffed at them through the lid before walking away.

Sasquatch sighting in North Carolina

After moving in, the couple heard whistles, whoops, footsteps and had pebbles thrown, with trail cameras failing. On a cold night about a year ago they sat quietly with lights off, heard a group approach talking, then lit them with flashlights. They describe one tall figure by a deck, one smaller figure lying prone that blinked, others peeking from trees, and others slapping buildings as a distraction before all left down a ridge.
