I got a screen of going 18 00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:14.000 on here something just to fly dog? Something killed your dog? My dog? 19 00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:15.480 We're flying through the or over the tread. I don't know how it 20 00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:21.599 did it? Okay, damn, And I'm really confused now. As I 21 00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:23.439 saw was my dog coming over the fence, and they did when you hit 22 00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.799 the groul, I didn't have seen any cards. Also I saw was my 23 00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:46.640 dog coming over the fence? Dan? Why what are you reporting? We 24 00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:57.120 got someone or something crawling around out here? Do you see what it was 25 00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.159 worth? It was it ending up here? Looking up new the one tho. 26 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:05.599 No, I don't need anything. I don't want to run right great? 27 00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:13.080 Anybody hello, get the body out here? What pot out the thought? 28 00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.800 I'm a venture body nine. I don't know. Easy en out there. 29 00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:20.639 Yeah, I'm looking right out. Are you telling me that these ravenous 30 00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:23.479 beasts listen to Bigfoot? Now? You don't really expect us to believe that 31 00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:28.719 Maurice coughed as they said talking over dinner a few nights later. I'll be 32 00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:31.159 the first to admit that this was getting stranger and stranger as time went on. 33 00:02:31.479 --> 00:02:35.199 But this was happening, and we had no choice but to go with 34 00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:38.360 the hand that was being played out in front of us. I never in 35 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.599 a million years would have thought that either, so I fully understand where she 36 00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:45.199 was coming from. I thought for sure that these things could tear anything that 37 00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:49.759 it encountered to shreds. Maybe that's why they don't leave the woodline. Maybe 38 00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:53.599 they can't. John said, what about the ones that venture out over here? 39 00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:58.039 Though, Connie said, what they're exempt from the rules? I'm sure 40 00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.080 they had to be boundaries. If man are somehow controlled by Bigfoot. As 41 00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:06.560 weird as that is, there had to be some understanding. In all honesty, 42 00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:09.240 have any of us seen these creatures outside the woods? I mean apart 43 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.680 from the one that I drew into the corn, and of course that time 44 00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:15.719 that it crossed the road, I said, they all thought about it. 45 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.360 Well, no, come to think of it, I have it, Connie 46 00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:21.360 said, that night I saw it. It was behind the trees, but 47 00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:25.479 still technically in the woods. John interrupted. It came out that night when 48 00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:29.759 we were there, and it scratched your truck. It also came up and 49 00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.240 tore up the side of y'all's house when Ashton and his family lived there too. 50 00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.120 I also think that's the same one that I shot John. I said, 51 00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:39.479 maybe that one is the rogue one. There has to be one in 52 00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:44.280 every group. My grandpa told me one time that when the children of the 53 00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:47.120 Bigfoot grow up, if they're bad, so to speak, they cast them 54 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.280 out. Then the Bigfoot have to fend for themselves. Maybe it's the same 55 00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:55.280 way here for the dog man. I knew it was all speculation. We 56 00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:00.840 didn't know anything about these creatures. I only know what I know about Bigfoot 57 00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:03.479 because of my grandpa. I had no doubt, however, that they are 58 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:08.000 more to those than what my grandpa told me. So what do you guys 59 00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:12.039 think Ashton's wife will say about what he's planning, Connie asked, I can 60 00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:14.840 only assume that she's not going to want him to do it, after what 61 00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.399 they dealt with while they were here. John said, that's the whole reason 62 00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.319 they moved to begin with. And here he is wanting to go back into 63 00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:25.399 the woods. I knew that that would be a possibility. He could come 64 00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:28.360 back here or call John and say that his wife just wasn't going to let 65 00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:30.680 him go back in there knowing what she does. I can't say that I 66 00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:34.800 blame her after we faced what we did in the woods that night, I 67 00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:39.160 hoped not though we could really use it. Since he lived here and went 68 00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:42.800 out there with John, he still knew more than Connie and me. Also, 69 00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:46.600 seeing as how he had more experiences with these things, even more than 70 00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:49.839 John, he would be very instrumental in helping us. I don't know, 71 00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:55.279 Connie said. He seemed pretty adamant about coming back. I guess time will 72 00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.560 tell, But we need to start restocking all of our supplies, I said, 73 00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:01.399 I'm going to pick up more WWAKEE talkies. Marie, I know you 74 00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.839 don't want anything to do with this, and I understand I wouldn't dare ask 75 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:09.079 you to go back into those woods with us, but we still need your 76 00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:12.519 help if you're willing to do that for us. Marie was quiet. I 77 00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:15.680 knew she wanted to stay as far away from this thing as possible, but 78 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.639 she also wanted to be there for her husband and for her friends. How 79 00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.439 can I help you guys if I'm not in the woods, Murray finally asked, 80 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.360 isn't that where most of the stuff is going to happen? Well? 81 00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:30.439 Not necessarily Marie. John said, we could have you stay inside at Mark 82 00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.399 and Connie's house to be a lookout. You would have your own walkee talkie 83 00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:36.519 for communication, and if you happen to see anything at all, you would 84 00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:41.360 just let us know. That's simple. That keeps you out of harm's way 85 00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.240 but still allows you to be a part of this whole thing. I know, 86 00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:46.319 deep down you want to help, but I also know that your fear 87 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:50.360 of these creatures is controlling you. I get it. They have set up 88 00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:55.079 every safety measure that they can. If anything at all comes on their property, 89 00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:57.920 the whole thing lights up like it's noon in the middle of the day. 90 00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:00.000 So what do you say? Can you help us out by doing that? 91 00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.360 John made it as simple as he could for her. He wanted her 92 00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:08.439 to feel included and still give her some kind of control that would also help 93 00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:12.439 with her fear. Before Marie had a chance to answer, John's phone rang 94 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.720 it was Ashton. John put the phone on speaker so we could all listen. 95 00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:20.720 Hey, so I talked to my wife. She's not entirely sold on 96 00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:25.079 the whole idea of me going to chase monsters in the woods with my friends. 97 00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:28.959 However, she's sympathetic to the position that you all are in. She 98 00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.120 remembered how she felt when we lived here. I explained everything to her and 99 00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:35.240 told her about the background that we all had in Honey, she knows that 100 00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:39.920 our chances of survival would be greater than any novice hunter going out there. 101 00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.519 That said, She's agreed to me going out with you guys, but only 102 00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.720 if she can be there as well. However, she doesn't want to be 103 00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.360 in the woods where either these creatures live. Would it be okay if she 104 00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:54.759 stayed at Mark and Connie's. I jumped on the opportunity. If Marie came 105 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.079 along, she wouldn't be alone, and she would be with someone who shared 106 00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:00.839 in her opinion about these creatures and how crazy we were for going after them. 107 00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.680 Tell her that's fine, I told John. You can let her know 108 00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:08.920 I'll be there as well, Marie said, smiling. She won't be sitting 109 00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:13.519 around an empty house all by herself. John smiled at Marie and let Ashton 110 00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.199 know that everything would be good on all accounts. Great, Ashton said, 111 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:20.000 we will be sending our kids to their grandparents whichever night we come over. 112 00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:24.040 You guys, just let me know a day and I'll let you know when 113 00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:27.360 we're on our way. Well, that takes care of that, Connie said, 114 00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:30.600 standing up from the table. Come on, Marie, I'll help you 115 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:32.920 with the dishes. They both walked into the kitchen, and John and I 116 00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:36.800 walked outside to the front deck. The sun hadn't quite set yet, and 117 00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:41.519 we still hadn't heard anything around either of their property since the Bigfoot had chased 118 00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:45.600 off the dog man. How crazy is this whole situation? I asked John. 119 00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:48.040 Did you ever think in a million years we would become great friends and 120 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:51.600 end up chasing big, bad, scary monsters at night through the woods. 121 00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:57.199 John laughed. I can't say that I did. Mark not what I expected 122 00:07:57.199 --> 00:08:01.040 the first night we met you and Connie, that's for sure. Monsters or 123 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:03.920 not. I was glad that we had formed a friendship with them. I 124 00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.879 don't remember ever having a friendship quite like this. We shared a lot of 125 00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.480 commonalities. I think that helps strengthen our bond even more. Then you throw 126 00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:16.639 in monster hunting, there's an aspect to a friendship. I had laid in 127 00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.040 bed one night, almost comparing us to the Ghostbusters, but instead of chasing 128 00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:26.360 Slimmer of the Stapuff marshmallow Man it was dog man in Bigfoot. In situations 129 00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:28.279 like this, you have to make the best of it. You can either 130 00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:33.360 laugh at it or live in fear of it. We may not have proton 131 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:35.039 packs or a ghost trap, but we're going to do the best that we 132 00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.120 can. Some people say that these trail camps can keep them away, So 133 00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:41.639 we're going to get these set up in the woods as far back as we 134 00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:46.440 can. I think we at least need ten or twelve of them to put 135 00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:48.440 up. Connie and I just went and bought some for our back lot for 136 00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.919 the animals, so we can use those if we need to. If we're 137 00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:56.000 keeping these things away from us all together, we won't need these for our 138 00:08:56.039 --> 00:08:58.559 property anymore. That is, if they even work and keeping them away. 139 00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:03.480 I said, yeah, that's the plan anyway. I would also love to 140 00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:07.440 know what power Bigfoot have over the dog men. I'll have to see if 141 00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:11.840 I can drum up any more information about that. It all seemed strange to 142 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:16.080 me, John said, I had to agree with him. Granted, Bigfoot 143 00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:18.600 generally stood head and shoulders above the dogmen in the woods, and they were 144 00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:22.639 certainly bigger in stature, But the dog men were or seemed to be more 145 00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:28.200 vicious, sharp teeth, long claws, and a ravenous appetite. But nonetheless 146 00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:33.039 there were somehow controlled by them. John, you know what I thought of, 147 00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:35.159 I asked, moving to the edge of my chair. What's that, 148 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:39.720 partner, he asked, These bigfoot have had to be here all along. 149 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:43.320 I was just thinking of the situation as a whole, and everything that we 150 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.000 had learned from Ashton, he said. He and his wife had ran from 151 00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.679 a high end of looking dog man and it didn't chase them. Connie was 152 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:54.639 in the car and it didn't come after her out of the tree line. 153 00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:58.840 The only time one of these dogmen made any kind of a threatening maneuver towards 154 00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:01.279 us is when we were in the woods. Right. So, since that's 155 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:05.840 the case, the big foot would have had to have been there, no 156 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:09.080 doubt about it, I explained excitedly. So the one that you shot that 157 00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.879 did break the line absolutely had to have gone rogue. But that still poses 158 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.600 a problem for us. It didn't die after you shot it in the face. 159 00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.559 Does that mean that any of them can be killed at all? John 160 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.039 asked. I had thought about that time and time again, but I could 161 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:31.519 never come up with a logical explanation. None of this was logical anyway, 162 00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:35.720 Maybe we won't be able to maybe they can only be killed by a bigfoot. 163 00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.519 Look, I know that sounds crazy, but honestly, John, this 164 00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:43.879 is all crazy. I think we have to start looking at this a little 165 00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.519 more outside the box than we have been. We come at this from a 166 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.440 logical state of mind, and this is so illogical it isn't even funny. 167 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.000 So knowing what we do now, we need to look at this differently. 168 00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:58.759 I think that this will help us in the long run, probably not to 169 00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:05.039 defeat the dogmen ourselves, but trusting that somehow Bigfoot can. John slowly rocked 170 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:07.679 in his rocking chair, trying to process everything I just told him. I 171 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:11.679 knew it was a stretch, but we'd done everything else. We are, 172 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:16.759 after all, dealing with not one, but two creatures that aren't even supposed 173 00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:20.039 to exist, much less both on the same property. At the same time. 174 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.559 We need to get back into the woods to investigate. But I think 175 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.879 we should do it during the day at first. I know dog men come 176 00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:30.919 out during the day, but not quite as often as they do Under the 177 00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:35.159 cover of darkness. They'll be more cautious and not as apt to attack us. 178 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:39.559 There's no time to waste, John said. The next morning, as 179 00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:41.600 soon as the sun rose over the horizon, we all met up at our 180 00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:46.600 house. Marie was set up in the kitchen with Alwaukee for communication, and 181 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:48.799 John, Connie and I were geared up and ready to set off into the 182 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:54.799 woodline. We gave a few brief instructions to Marie and we left. We 183 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.799 had looked online for what others had found when it came to bigfoot, tree 184 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:03.080 structure, examples, broken tree limbs, and what possible Bigfoot nests look like. 185 00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:07.279 We hungered for everything we could get our hands on a relation to these 186 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:11.159 two cryptids. Never remember. John said, as we drove the short drive 187 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:16.440 into the wood line. This is a scouting mission only. We aren't going 188 00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:20.440 in to kill anything unless it comes at us first. Ashton will be here 189 00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:24.200 tomorrow night. That's when we can hopefully be able to hunt to kill. 190 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.039 Today we are simply looking for signs of Bigfoot, but maybe we'll stumble across 191 00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:31.919 something that shows that dog Man is in the same area as well. We 192 00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:37.279 trecked the rough terrain off trail. It was so much thicker this way, 193 00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:41.399 but Bigfoot doesn't follow trails unless they're own game trails. That is, most 194 00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.240 of the encounters my grandpa had happened when he went off trail to hunt deer. 195 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:50.840 He would always come back home covered in scratches from briar bushes, covered 196 00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:54.240 in mosquito bites, and crawling with ticks. My grandma always gave him down 197 00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:58.919 the country for that too, but he never let it stop him. I 198 00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.200 remember as a child when I would go there on my summer breaks from school, 199 00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:05.200 but I always stayed on the trail. I didn't want any part of 200 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.879 what my grandma would dish out if I didn't. I never had one single 201 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:13.639 encounter with them. Maybe that's why I stayed on the trail. They knew 202 00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:16.240 I was there, and they didn't want me to know where they were. 203 00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:20.320 Scouting Off trail was the way to go in this case. That would give 204 00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:24.200 us our best chance to find some of these tree structures or anything else related 205 00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:28.759 to them. We would also have the best chance of maybe sneaking up on 206 00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:31.320 one of them, like Connie and I did that day. That is, 207 00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:35.000 if that was a big foot and not a bear. We finally made our 208 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.480 way down to the water. John instantly froze when he saw it. I 209 00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:43.120 certainly understood why. This was the first time he had been back in this 210 00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.360 place since that dreadful night that we looked hale right in the face. Are 211 00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.240 you okay to keep going, John, I asked, as the fear was 212 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:54.799 emanating off of them. We all stood still until John was ready to go 213 00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.480 forward. He took a few deep breaths, and we moved along. The 214 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:03.159 rain had washed away all the blood, so there was literally nothing left of 215 00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:07.320 that night except our trauma memories and our own account of what happened to us. 216 00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:11.120 We knew that no one else would believe us except those we had already 217 00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:13.840 told, and they only believed us because they had experiences of their own. 218 00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:18.000 I don't know if I would ever be brave enough to go into one of 219 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.840 those encounter shows that we'd listened to. However, based on others courage to 220 00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:26.200 tell their story, we ourselves had learned a lot. Connie had walked ahead 221 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:28.360 of John and I and we saw her leaning over at a nearby tree limb. 222 00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:31.080 What do you got there, Connie, I asked as I walked up 223 00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:35.840 to her. These tree limb brakes are so inconclusive. How can you really 224 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:39.759 tell what did this? She asked? As she lifted the broken portion of 225 00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:43.480 the tree limb up. Well, it's not the whole tree limb, it's 226 00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.799 just the portion of the limb that's broken. John said, But I agree, 227 00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:50.159 it's hard to say with any certainty. Let's keep moving ahead and see 228 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:52.759 if we can find something else. We had walked quite a ways through the 229 00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:56.399 brush, and right in the midst of her walking, Connie frozen. Pointed 230 00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:01.200 the cave. She exclaimed, We're too close. We must turn around. 231 00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:05.879 We're right at their front door. John and I walked over and hid behind 232 00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:09.559 a big boulder and looked over at the cave. We must have walked clear 233 00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:11.879 around the opposite way, and we're looking at the cave from the other side. 234 00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.720 There wasn't any movement at all from inside, no noises, no smells. 235 00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:20.240 The fact that there could have been close to ten dog men in there 236 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:24.519 really hit home for us. Just then we saw one on all fours making 237 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.799 its way to the front of the cave from the side. We all knelt 238 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:31.480 down so it wouldn't see us. It must be protecting them so they can 239 00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:37.679 sleep. I think I read somewhere that Sasquatch had what some people called daywatchers 240 00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:39.960 to protect the ones who sleep. I think that's what this one's doing. 241 00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:45.559 John whispered that dogmen on all fours had a shoulder height of at least three 242 00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:48.519 or four feet tall. Once it stood up, it would be much taller. 243 00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:52.639 We had to figure out a way to get out of this before this 244 00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:56.440 thing caught wind of us. We need to start making our way back home 245 00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.320 now, Connie said. I don't like this at all. I think we 246 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:03.519 may be out of range for the walkie talkie because we haven't heard anything from 247 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:07.120 Marie. The fear on Connie's face was very clear. At times, when 248 00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:11.639 something scared her, she would get angry. I could see it building. 249 00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.559 I stood in front of her and made her stop for a minute, just 250 00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:18.559 to breathe. I know seeing one is terrifying. Seeing one in broad daylight 251 00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.639 is even worse. Just take a second, mark. We may not have 252 00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:26.480 a second until this thing smells us. We have to go now, Connie 253 00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:30.840 said angrily. She took off, not being quiet at all. She was 254 00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:36.600 snapping twigs and breaking branches as she swiftly moved along. That's all it took. 255 00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.120 This dog man snapped its head around and scanned the area where we were. 256 00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:45.440 It let out a loud howl and then headed in our direction. Mark, 257 00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:48.840 Connie, run, it's coming, John yield. No need to be 258 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:51.759 quiet anymore. We took off out of there, like a bad out of 259 00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.039 hell. We ran as hard as we could. We heard it coming through 260 00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:57.759 the trees. Snarling echoed from behind us, and it felt as though each 261 00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:02.759 second would be our last. We made it back to the water and quickly 262 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:04.799 stopped to take a break and catch our breath as much as we could, 263 00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:08.680 since the noises had lessened, John also reached out to Marie to let her 264 00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:14.400 know what happened. Shortly afterwards, though, we started feeling small pelts hitting 265 00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:19.440 against our packs. We all looked around, confused nothing. We all looked 266 00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:23.279 up, thinking that maybe something was falling naturally from the trees. However, 267 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:27.759 none of the trees we were surrounded by dropped anything like acorns, pine cones, 268 00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:33.640 or anything like that. But still yet the pelts kept coming. Soon 269 00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:37.920 little stones began hitting the water. It was almost like it was raining rocks 270 00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:41.119 every so often. Then the smell hit us, the smell that we had 271 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:45.839 smelled the first day in the woods. It's here, Connie said, as 272 00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.640 she eyed us surroundings with her weapon. Drawn. Now is this dog man 273 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:53.279 or is it bigfoot? I couldn't answer her question, and neither could John. 274 00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:56.720 The fact of the matter is, the day we smelled it, we 275 00:17:56.759 --> 00:18:02.640 couldn't figure it out either. We left. That was our plan on this 276 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:07.799 day too. We quickly retreated and made it back home. I was discouraged 277 00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:10.359 that we didn't get on all of our trail cams up, but I was 278 00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:12.119 glad that out of the twelve of them, we'd gotten at least nine of 279 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:17.279 them put up. We had also seen a possible bigfoot tree break, but 280 00:18:17.400 --> 00:18:21.599 nothing conclusive. But we did find a different way to get to the cave, 281 00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:26.559 and then we were chased by a dog man again afterwards at the water. 282 00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:32.160 What was throwing those small rocks at us? Was it bigfoot? I 283 00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.640 mean, I don't see a dog man standing around throwing things at us after 284 00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:38.880 it had been violently chasing us. It seems they would have been more likely 285 00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:44.079 to have just finished the job and attacked us. I couldn't wait for Ashton 286 00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:48.200 to come over tomorrow night. I woke up early the next morning, excited 287 00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:52.160 to start the day. A lot of people would call us crazy. If 288 00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:55.519 anyone had heard us talking about this, they would swear that we had lost 289 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:57.720 our minds. Hell, before all this started, I would have been the 290 00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:02.599 same way, But I have come to grips with this lifestyle. Maybe not 291 00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:06.240 the cryptid jungle as Connie called it, but no matter what is going on 292 00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:08.960 out here, I knew this is where we belonged. I could feel it. 293 00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:14.680 Stay tuned for more Sasquat Jealousy will be right back. After these messages, 294 00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:21.519 the day was longer than normal, and I knew why it was hot 295 00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:23.440 and muggy. So when the sun sets this evening, it'll be great. 296 00:19:25.599 --> 00:19:29.519 Johnny, Marie came over a little after four that afternoon. We all had 297 00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:33.039 an early dinner together and gathered up everything we would need before Ashton and his 298 00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:36.680 wife showed up. Connie and I had taken down all the trail camps from 299 00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:40.599 around our property earlier in the day. We also went out to get more 300 00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:45.160 walkie talkies. After everything was collected and loaded up, Connie went in and 301 00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:48.920 made coffee for Marie and Ashton's wife. Not long after they showed up, 302 00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:53.079 they both came to the door and we welcomed the men. Ashton shook her 303 00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:56.559 hands and introduced himself to Marie, since she wasn't there the first time he 304 00:19:56.599 --> 00:20:00.960 came over. This is my wife's a brain, Ashton said. We all 305 00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:04.799 introduced ourselves and made our way to the kitchen. I made some fresh coffee. 306 00:20:04.799 --> 00:20:08.119 Connie said to Sabrina, please make yourself at home. If you need 307 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:12.359 anything at all, just let Marino and she'll help you. Everything was ready 308 00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:15.880 to go, and I was chomping at the bit to get into the woods. 309 00:20:15.880 --> 00:20:18.920 I threw on my backpack and went outside to wait on everyone else. 310 00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:23.240 About ten minutes later they piled out the door and we were off. We 311 00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:27.200 climbed into the truck and drove down to the wood line. We sat and 312 00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:32.400 waited until the sun had almost set. The cool breeze felt nice as we 313 00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:36.200 got out of the truck. Truth be told, I had already started sweating, 314 00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:37.720 just under the weight of my pack and the cameo I'd put on. 315 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:42.039 We came out earlier in the day yesterday. I thought we weren't going to 316 00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:45.759 find anything, but I was wrong. We did find a possible tree break 317 00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:48.599 from a big foot, but we weren't sure if it was from one of 318 00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:52.839 them, maybe another animal walking by and breaking it, or something else. 319 00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:56.160 Altogether. We also found an alternate route to the opposite side of the cave. 320 00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:02.039 That's when everything blew up. Then we experienced something that was strange, 321 00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:06.599 a pungent smell by the water, and then something was pelting us with small 322 00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:11.519 rocks. So how exactly did everything blow up, though, Ashton asked, 323 00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:15.960 I explained everything that happened. Ashton looked around and said, well, that 324 00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:21.279 certainly does add a degree of difficulty for tonight. As far as what you 325 00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:25.759 said earlier, the tree break could indicate bigfoot, I can't be sure, 326 00:21:25.799 --> 00:21:29.440 but it's very common that they throw things at people. Also, no one 327 00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:33.799 really knows why, though it could be them saying that they recognized that you're 328 00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:37.960 there, or even that you've interrupted their hunt Before that. Did you hear 329 00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:41.440 anything nothing like that, Ashton, John said, it was as quiet as 330 00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.759 it could be. Come to think of it. There weren't any noises at 331 00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.400 all, nothing from insects or any other type of animal. He was right. 332 00:21:49.759 --> 00:21:53.119 I never even picked up on it, But that's true, we completely 333 00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:57.319 missed it. If something large is moving through the woods, everything else would 334 00:21:57.359 --> 00:22:02.440 be silent. This is where Mark and John encountered the dog man face to 335 00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:06.200 face. Connie said, as we stood near the water, John sighed, 336 00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:10.640 if you were looking through this opening, his whole head filled up that clearing. 337 00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:14.799 He was blacker than black fur, covered in blood, red eyes, 338 00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:18.160 sharp teeth, and his breath was not so hot. Then I shot it 339 00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:22.160 in the face. I said. It could have been lying there just over 340 00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:25.799 that large amount of dirt at the bottom should be, but it wasn't. 341 00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:29.839 Yeah, the whole thing sounds bizarre, Ashton said as he looked around. 342 00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:33.640 It's a little quieter than I would prefer. Now. It could only mean 343 00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:38.160 that they're around now, them or the big Foot, maybe even both. 344 00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:42.079 Let's start getting the rest of these trail cams up. Police Connie said. 345 00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:47.079 The first one should go here around that tree, facing towards the clearing. 346 00:22:48.119 --> 00:22:49.559 Yes, you can't see it because it's so dark, but if you look 347 00:22:49.599 --> 00:22:52.799 straight out you can see the cave half a mile from here. John said. 348 00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:56.519 We hung the two trail cams in that area because it's the closest to 349 00:22:56.559 --> 00:23:00.119 our house in our property. We hung the as went up near the water. 350 00:23:00.880 --> 00:23:04.200 Whether it's dog Man or Bigfoot hanging around for the fish, we should 351 00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:08.119 get a picture of it. Then hopefully it'll stay in the woods. We 352 00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:12.319 prayed that it would anyway. We carefully made it up to where we'd found 353 00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:15.839 the tree break earlier, and Ashton agreed that we couldn't be positive it was 354 00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:21.319 done on purpose or by another animal in the woods, you know, the 355 00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:25.440 kind that belonged here. Ashton hung one of the trail camps on that tree 356 00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:29.119 as well, since it was near the cave on the opposite side. Let 357 00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:32.279 me ask your opinion, Ashton. The other night, Connie and I were 358 00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:34.440 sitting on the back deck and one of these dogmen came tearing through the woods 359 00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:38.720 in our direction. It broke the barrier and all of our halogen lights came 360 00:23:38.759 --> 00:23:42.720 on. But then we heard a bigfoot yale. I'm sure that's what it 361 00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:47.960 was. It wasn't a howl, it was a yale. As soon as 362 00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:51.799 that happened, the dogman backed off and went back into the woods. It 363 00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:56.759 never came after us. After that we ran inside. So I was putting 364 00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:00.400 two and two together, or at least trying to the only thing it makes 365 00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:04.240 sense is that somehow these bigfoot creatures are controlling the dog man. They have 366 00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:08.519 to be. They're keeping them in the woodline. The one that you and 367 00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:11.880 John saw while out hunting, and the one that scratched your house had to 368 00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:15.519 be a rogue. We also thought that the one I shot had to be 369 00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:19.559 a rogue too. Have you ever seen such a thing? I can't say 370 00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:23.319 that I have, Ashton said curiously, that, of course doesn't mean that 371 00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:26.960 it's not a thing. I just haven't heard of it. But then again, 372 00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:32.119 there aren't too many things about this topic that adds up. Connie reached 373 00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:34.480 out and hastily grabbed my arm. Do you hear that? She asked, 374 00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:38.000 in a panic tone. It's something heavy moving out in front of us. 375 00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:41.759 It's going to get us Mark. We have to go now. She yield. 376 00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.559 I reached over and quickly covered her mouth before she had the chance to 377 00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:49.240 yell again. Look, you're not new to this. You have to be 378 00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:55.240 quiet. Yes this is a massive beast, and yes it's also an animal 379 00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:59.640 of some sort. Handle this as you would any normal hunting trip, you 380 00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.319 would, and dare yell like that. I removed my hand from her mouth. 381 00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:07.119 She was breathing heavily, and fire flew from her eyes in anger. 382 00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:11.839 A loud tree knock broke the tension of the situation. What the Ashton said, 383 00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:17.839 bigfoot, I said, listen to the footfalls they're retreating back away from 384 00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:22.400 us. Two more knocks followed, and then once again silence. Everything fell 385 00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:26.960 as silent as it was when we first got there. Ashton looked at me 386 00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:30.640 in surprise. I told you, they control them. It's like a knock 387 00:25:30.640 --> 00:25:34.720 of the trees keeps the danger away from us, I said. Ashton let 388 00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:38.039 out a small whoop into the darkness, and he got a grunt in return. 389 00:25:38.839 --> 00:25:41.920 We walked maybe a mile further into a clearing, and we found what 390 00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:47.000 appeared to be a footprint, but before we could examine it, a midsized 391 00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:51.119 tree got pushed over. We're too close. We have to back out of 392 00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:55.079 here, Ashton said. There was no time to explain as we stood up 393 00:25:55.079 --> 00:26:00.000 and listen to a different type of thrashing sound. Ashton's eyes were huge. 394 00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:03.759 Been in the cover of darkness. They're coming. Get out of here now, 395 00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:10.519 he exclaimed. They say you don't gotta go home, but you can't 396 00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:42.759 stay. I don't want to be alone the world out. Try to try 397 00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:52.440 that time Everything coming right, baby, joy for me, Your stay right 398 00:26:52.680 --> 00:28:03.079 down, I'm coming right aways. Time for busses, schools. He has 399 00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:07.519 mass used insis
