1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.960
Now, I went, what are
you're putting? I got a screen going

2
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:06.960
on here. Something just became my
dog. Something killed your dog, my

3
00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:09.679
dog. We're flying through the or
over the tread. I don't know how

4
00:00:09.720 --> 00:00:14.919
it did it? Okay, damn, And I'm really confused now as I

5
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:17.719
saw my dog coming over the fence, and me was did when you hit

6
00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:20.359
the ground. I didn't see any
car and alls I saw was my dog

7
00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:40.880
coming over the fence. Why what
are you're putting? We got someone or

8
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:52.600
something crawling around out here. You
see what it was? It was standing

9
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:55.920
up here looking through the window now
and I don't see anything. I don't

10
00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:03.519
want to go outside. Jesus quint
By, Hello, get the body out

11
00:01:03.599 --> 00:01:15.560
here. Nine. I don't know. We all ran with reckless abandon We

12
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:19.200
made it out with no time to
spare. Larger rocks were flying through the

13
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:23.519
woods with narrow misses. It was
no longer small pebbles. These were like

14
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:26.599
small boulders. What in the heck
did we come across? Why did the

15
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:30.920
big foot turn on us like that? If any of these rocks had hit

16
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.719
us, we'd have been knocked unconscious. What were we too close to?

17
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.280
We stopped once the rocks were no
longer being thrown, and the woods once

18
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:42.400
again fell silent. What were we
too close to, Ashton? Why in

19
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:47.000
the hell did they start throwing small
boulders at us? I asked, desperately,

20
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:49.760
trying to catch my breath. Ashton
gulped down some water and wiped his

21
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.079
mouth and faced on the bottom of
his T shirt. Obviously, there's something

22
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:57.280
special with this place. We could
have been too close to their home.

23
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.359
It could have been a birthing site, or they could have had young there,

24
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:04.560
like in a nursery. We were
far into the woods. We had

25
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:07.400
to have stumbled across something like that
to get that negative reaction out of them.

26
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:13.479
Gently they're docile in nature unless they
feel threatened. Connie had set down

27
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:16.280
on the ground and a clearing of
dirt to rest. I felt bad for

28
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:21.719
bringing her on this expedition. This
may have entirely diminished her love for nature,

29
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.439
hunting, and hiking. I really
didn't want that for her. These

30
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:29.240
encounters were a heavy burden to carry. I knew that mentally. It was

31
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:32.280
also taxing. Come in, Marie
said over the walkie talkie, are you

32
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:37.280
guys okay? We haven't heard anything
from you. John Quede up as walkie.

33
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:39.000
Yeah, we're good. Had some
pretty close calls, but right now

34
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:44.039
we're all right. How are things
there? That's another reason we wanted to

35
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.879
contact you. Sabrina said, There's
been some strange noises outside, screeching,

36
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.319
almost like a hawk, but this
was no bird I'd ever heard before.

37
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:57.400
It was almost like an imitation.
I was hoping the girls would be okay.

38
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:00.280
I knew they wouldn't dare come out, especially now was strange noises outside,

39
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:04.120
But as far as I knew,
neither of them knew how to handle

40
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.919
a weapon, and even if they
did, I don't think they would ever

41
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:10.520
shoot something that wasn't their nature.
We have to start walking back. Ashton

42
00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:15.919
said, Bigfoot make those imitation calls. I didn't think that Bigfoot would do

43
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.520
anything to harm them, but also
didn't think Bigfoot would throw a rock the

44
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.759
size of my head at me either. This was also unpredictable. Now,

45
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:28.919
the Bigfoot of these woods seemed to
be safer than dog man, less threatening

46
00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:31.439
for sure, minus the rocks.
That is. We would have to leave

47
00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:35.800
the area and let everything settle down
before we came back during the day to

48
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:38.639
get the trail cameras. As we
were walking out that sound that I never

49
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:43.599
wanted to hear again, echoed across
the vast openness of the forest of trees.

50
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:49.560
Laughter, What in the hell could
be out here? Laughing, that's

51
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:53.479
a damn hyaena, John and said
as we all stood in bewilderment. The

52
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:57.560
sound had carried from the cave where
they were standing. Connie just hung her

53
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:00.919
head. I can't take this.
We have bigfoot dog man and now a

54
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:06.159
hyena. Ashton paced back and forth. He reminded us of a professor trying

55
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:11.639
to figure out the answer to a
long scientific equation. Me and Sabrina saw

56
00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:14.919
a dog man that looked like a
hyena. John, didn't you say that

57
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:17.920
you saw one that looked like a
hyena too, Ashton asked, I sure

58
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.720
did through the binoculars that night that
Mark shot the black one. Johnny answered.

59
00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:26.720
So let's reason it from there,
because how likely is it that you

60
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:30.439
guys have a hyena rumming around here
as well? Ashton asked. Connie chuckled,

61
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.279
how likely is it that we have
two crypted creatures rumbing around here that

62
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:39.279
shouldn't exist? No way he would
be able to argue his way out of

63
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:43.040
that one. The likelihood that any
of the three of them would be there

64
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:46.120
should be low, But here we
are in the middle of the woods,

65
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.199
chasing two of the three of them. Are you proposing that the dog man

66
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:54.480
that looks like a hyaena as making
that cackling noise, I asked. Connie

67
00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:58.399
stood up from where she was sitting
and started walking around. She was stressing.

68
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:00.600
I could see it. Needed to
get her back home so she could

69
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:04.480
decompress from the whole situation. We
all made our way back down the mountain.

70
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:09.959
The cackle rang out again. Connie
never missed a beat. She was

71
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:14.600
a strong hunter, but this was
too much. There's a loud banging sound

72
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:16.680
coming from the back of the house. Marie yelled into the walkie, like

73
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.639
a baseball bat hitting something metal.
John and I looked at each other.

74
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:25.959
My cattle, I yield, it's
in the backyard. I've never seen anything

75
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:29.319
metal out there in the woods.
That must be what it is. Hold

76
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:32.680
your positions, John told Marie sternly. We're nearly there. Ashton took off

77
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.279
running ahead of us. Connie followed
quickly in his footsteps, and John and

78
00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:41.800
I weren't too far behind them.
Finally the exit, we all jumped into

79
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:45.160
the truck and sped off to the
house. Connie ran inside to get the

80
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.120
details of what had gone on while
we were in the woods from Sabrina and

81
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:51.079
Marie, while John, myself and
Ashton cautiously went around to the back.

82
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:56.000
We held our flashlights up as we
walked around the side, but we put

83
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:59.680
them away once we saw the lights
were on, lighting up the entire area.

84
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.079
We checked on the chickens and the
coop. They were all accounted for.

85
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:05.680
Then we made our way to the
cows, they were fine. We

86
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:10.079
made our way to our pigs,
which were fine as well. However,

87
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:14.040
the large metal container we had for
their water had huge dents in it.

88
00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:17.199
That may have been what was making
the noise, But what would come here

89
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.399
and do that? Once you stepped
foot in the yard, the lights come

90
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:24.600
on, so they had to been
on when this thing was beating on this

91
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:29.040
container. But where were the girls
when this started? We had come into

92
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:31.800
the living room to watch television.
Nothing had been happening, so we really

93
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.639
didn't see any need to just sit
in the kitchen, so we closed the

94
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:39.720
curtains and came in here. Plus, watching television would distract us from what

95
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.600
could possibly be gone on with you
guys, Marie said, shortly after we

96
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.759
came in here, though, Sabrina
said, that's when we heard the strange

97
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:49.720
screeching noise. After we talked to
you guys on the walkie talkie, about

98
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:53.959
ten to fifteen minutes had gone by, and that's when we heard the banging

99
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:57.399
noise. We just stayed in the
living room and called you guys again.

100
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:00.839
After me and the guys had finished
looking everything over outside and making sure that

101
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:04.759
everything was secure with no further damage, we came inside. The girls were

102
00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:09.759
all sitting in the living room talking. They went over with us everything they

103
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:13.240
had told Connie and what they had
experienced. We also filled them in on

104
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:17.240
what happened in the woods. It
laughed, Sabrina asked, surprised, Ashton

105
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:21.240
sat down beside her. Yep,
it's sure. Did you would have thought

106
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:25.759
a person was out there in the
woods. Now, I've done some research

107
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.600
on wild animals. When I was
looking up all this stuff with the dog

108
00:07:28.680 --> 00:07:31.079
man, I was trying to understand
what their habits may be based off of

109
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:35.160
their animals. I had ran across
those images of seven dog men, and

110
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:39.759
when I found that one that looked
like a hyena, I decided to investigate

111
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:44.360
that one further, since I had
seen it in comparison with the actual hyena.

112
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.759
This one is obviously much larger,
but maintains a lot of the same

113
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:51.199
characteristics, the laugh being something I
heard mentioned on one of the encounter stories

114
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:56.040
I'd listen to. If you look
at the hyaena in the wild, they

115
00:07:56.120 --> 00:08:00.519
laugh out of frustration or conflict.
I'd say we caused it some frustration by

116
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:05.079
being there. John went on to
explain everything that he could remember. I

117
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:09.639
was impressed with John's acquired knowledge of
this hyena dog man. We would certainly

118
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:13.319
need all that we could get.
I can't wait to get those trail cameras

119
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.959
back. Hopefully there's something on there
that we can see, and maybe they'll

120
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:20.879
keep these things away from our home. Did you guys find anything out back

121
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:24.040
when you looked around that could have
been making that noise we heard? Connie

122
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.000
asked, Yeah, we did.
Actually, all the animals are fine.

123
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.959
None of the enclosures are damaged.
But the water trough we made for the

124
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.840
pigs is then it all to hell. That's where the sound was coming from.

125
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.720
The lights were all on when we
got back there, meaning whatever did

126
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:43.600
this did it in the full light. This is all our fault. Marie

127
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:46.759
said, if we had stayed in
the kitchen or even left the curtains open,

128
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:50.159
we would have seen it. John
walked over and sat beside her.

129
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:54.200
Please, it's okay. I would
prefer that you didn't see it that close.

130
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:56.600
Whether it's a bigfoot or a dog
man, the main thing is that

131
00:08:56.639 --> 00:09:00.759
you guys are all right, the
animals are all right, and we all

132
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.879
made it back to the house in
one piece. The action still didn't add

133
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.240
up. Why would something risk being
seen just to come and bang on a

134
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:11.360
water trough. Maybe it was some
sort of a dominant behavior, maybe more

135
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.799
indicative of a bigfoot, I would
think, even a younger one. Maybe

136
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.279
I don't really think dogman would do
something like that. It would be more

137
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.600
in line with the screeching noises as
well, imitations of birds, hawks,

138
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:28.600
maybe possibly the screech of an owl. I know that's a common thing they

139
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.320
do. Everything starts to add up
the more you think it through it being

140
00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:35.440
a bigfoot that came through while we
were gone. I wonder, though,

141
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.799
was this behavior the result of us
getting too close to whatever that was in

142
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.879
the woods. We had talked about
all the scenarios for hours, it seems

143
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:46.679
before we realized how late it had
gotten. You guys are welcome to stay

144
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.080
the night. Connie said to Ashton
and Sabrina, we'll pull out the sofa

145
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:54.039
bed with all due respects. Sabrina
said, I think we're going to stay

146
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:56.840
the night with John and Marie.
Connie chuckled, well, I can certainly

147
00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:01.039
understand that one. You've lived through
enough when this was your home. They

148
00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:05.759
all gathered the things and went back
to John and Marie. Connie and I

149
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:07.519
went to bed shortly after, but
I just laid there in the bed,

150
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:13.279
unable to sleep, going over everything
we'd seen and experience since we'd moved there.

151
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:16.000
I was frustrated that this couldn't have
been everything she and I had planned

152
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:20.279
for while we were sitting in our
apartment in the city. We had so

153
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.600
many visions, and none of them
included sharing our home or our land with

154
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.080
these things. I woke up early
the next morning, had a shower,

155
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:30.639
and fixed coffee. I knew that
we had just put those cameras up last

156
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:33.960
night, less than twenty four hours
ago, but with everything going on while

157
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.799
we were there, I wanted to
go back so badly and see if there

158
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:39.639
was anything on them. Surely,
with all the activities, something had to

159
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:43.159
have been stirred up enough to end
up in front of one of them.

160
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.000
We had cameras all over the places
we'd had activity every time we'd been in

161
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:50.639
the woods. I called John and
asked him if it would be foolish to

162
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:54.240
go check. All I would need
to do is bring the laptop up there

163
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.000
to check the SD card. You're
a real glutton for punishment, aren't you,

164
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.159
Mark, John asked, he wasn't
wrong. I was fully vested in

165
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:07.679
these creatures, all of them,
I admit, almost obsessed. More importantly,

166
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:09.559
I just wanted to sit outside of
our house any time, day or

167
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:15.480
night without feeling or being threatened.
I knew that would never happen until this

168
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.080
problem was solved. The longer we
waited, the longer it would take.

169
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.320
And even though I'm a very patient
person, my patience was beginning to run

170
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.879
thin. Mark. Connie laughed,
you can't really think there's something on those

171
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.960
cameras already, you know they take
a little longer than that. I sighed,

172
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:35.799
I know, but I'm factoring in
all the activity we had, the

173
00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:39.559
big foot moving around, the dog
man, Goodness knows what else. I

174
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.039
just feel we need to take a
look. Connie sat down beside me and

175
00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:46.840
rub my shoulder. Give it a
few days. Yeah, we'll go check

176
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:50.440
them when they've had more time to
capture something. We don't know exactly how

177
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.480
these creatures operate or their habits.
Let's just keep an eye out here at

178
00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:56.600
home and see if any of the
activity is diminished with the cameras being in

179
00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:00.919
the woods. I guess, deep
down, and I knew she was right,

180
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:03.279
but the thought still tugged at me. Maybe it was all just wishful

181
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.039
thinking on my part that we would
have the cameras up for one night and

182
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:11.320
instantly have proof of these beings.
Of all the accounts that I'd heard,

183
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.960
no one who set cameras out ever
caught anything, and the ones that did

184
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.120
the photos were blurry and conclusive or
said to be a hoax. I knew

185
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:22.720
that even natural animals in the woods
didn't go straight to the cameras. So

186
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:26.559
once again I pushed everything aside and
went about my day and started to do

187
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:28.840
the things that I knew needed to
be done. The days went by,

188
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:31.799
and I thought about what John had
told us about the cameras, and it

189
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:35.320
turned out to be right. There
hadn't been any activity on our property.

190
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:39.960
The lights hadn't come on, everything
was pretty quiet. I know that generally.

191
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:43.679
Connie and I waited for a while
to check our cameras, but after

192
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.120
a few weeks I couldn't take it
anymore. She and I went out early

193
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:50.240
one morning, took a laptop,
our weapons, and some water, and

194
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:54.159
headed to the cameras. Connie was
humoring me and going, and truth be

195
00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:56.559
told, she probably just wanted to
go so i'd finally be quiet about it.

196
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:01.519
We checked the trail cam that was
furthest from our property, nearest the

197
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.879
cave. We were especially careful not
to disturb anything, and we were quiet

198
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.759
as humanly possible, so we didn't
draw any attention to us by dogman or

199
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:15.399
bigfoot. I knelt down, handshaking
with excitement and adrenaline. I just knew

200
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:18.039
that something had to be on this
one, because this camera was on the

201
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:20.559
tree closest to where we were having
all the small boulders thrown at us and

202
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.559
the dog man chasing us. We
saw plenty of deer as we clicked through

203
00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:28.120
the photos, but that was all. To say I was defeated would be

204
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:33.120
an understatement, but I knew it
was a long shot. We checked all

205
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:37.240
the other trail cameras and finally made
it to the water last camera. County

206
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.720
said, fingers crossed. What we
saw on the last trail camera was something

207
00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:45.360
we hadn't expected to see. Sure, there were deer, raccoons, you

208
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:46.759
know, the normal things that you
would expect to see in the woods.

209
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:52.480
But the last two pictures made us
both gasp. It was a man.

210
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:56.519
He was sitting in the dirt,
legs crossed, right there where I had

211
00:13:56.519 --> 00:14:00.240
shot the dog man. His back
was towards the camera in the first picture

212
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.440
we saw, but in the last
picture he turned his face to the camera.

213
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:05.519
It was almost like he knew it
was there. Even though we tried

214
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:09.399
to make them as inconspicuous as possible, we had a clear shot of his

215
00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:13.960
face. Though. We saved those
two pictures on my cell phone, set

216
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.840
everything back up, and went home. We went to John and Maries to

217
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:20.440
show them the pictures to see if
this man was anyone that they knew no

218
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:24.360
doubt, this was not normal.
Why would anyone just go and sit in

219
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:28.039
the woods in the middle of the
night there was a man? John asked,

220
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:33.399
why would anyone sit in the pitch
black in the woods alone? I

221
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.519
wonder if they know what's going on, or if they do, why would

222
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.320
they put themselves at risk like that. I pulled up the pictures for Marie

223
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:43.000
and John. John, I just
thought about something. Connie said, is

224
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.559
there another way into these woods somewhere
else other than the entrance that's a couple

225
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:50.720
of miles from our house? She
was right. I hadn't heard any of

226
00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:54.879
their vehicles passed by our house.
Of course, it was in the middle

227
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:56.720
of the night, and I don't
guess we would have, but it was

228
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:01.240
still a good question. I never
thought about there being another way into the

229
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:05.399
woods. As far as I know, it's just by y'all's place. But

230
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:09.399
I also haven't had another reason to
look. When Marie and I came here,

231
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.840
we were just happy to be here. I never ran across anything while

232
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:16.519
out hunting, as far as roads
or anything else like that. I never

233
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.159
really had to go too far in
to get what I needed. Connie and

234
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:22.799
I both looked at each other.
I knew what she was thinking. One

235
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.759
or both of us would have to
stay up to see if anyone passed by

236
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:30.600
to go into the woods. The
time stamp on the photo was just before

237
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:35.720
three in the morning. The witching
hour. Great, maybe we should talk

238
00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:39.120
to Ashton and see if he's ever
seen him. If this man is frequenting

239
00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:41.679
the woods, and assuming there's only
one entry and he's passing by our property,

240
00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:46.000
maybe they know who he is,
or have at least seen him walk

241
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:48.840
by, I suggested. John walked
to the other room to grab his cell

242
00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:52.519
phone to call them. What if
it's just a homeless man, Marie asked,

243
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:56.200
that could be a possibility, and
I have to admit I didn't think

244
00:15:56.200 --> 00:16:00.879
about it as an option. But
if that's the case, someone still needs

245
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:04.000
to let him know in a tactful
manner that these woods aren't safe and by

246
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:10.080
simply sitting out there, he's putting
himself in very grave danger. John walked

247
00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:14.240
back into the room before we could
finish our conversation. I'm sending Ashton a

248
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.440
picture of these photos. He said
he didn't recall seeing anyone walk past their

249
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:22.759
house. However, that doesn't mean
that he didn't. He said he wouldn't

250
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:25.960
know for sure unless he could see
what he looked like. I guess that

251
00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:29.000
could possibly work sending him the photos, but it is a picture of a

252
00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:32.639
picture. They don't always turn out
well, but nonetheless it was sent,

253
00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:36.240
and now all we could do was
wait, but the phone never rang.

254
00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:40.519
Instead, Ashton showed up at John
and Marie's door about thirty minutes later.

255
00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.960
We were all surprised to see him
and wondering why he didn't just call us.

256
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:47.879
That's the guy we bought the house
from that used to live there,

257
00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:51.120
Ashton said. As he came in
and sat down, he took his phone

258
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:53.919
out and opened up the picture again. I would recognize him anywhere. He's

259
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:57.600
peculiar, a little weird, and
definitely has his quirks, but he seemed

260
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:02.919
to be a nice man overall.
His name is Henry Webb. He's probably

261
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:04.880
in his sixties. I would say, I don't know why he would have

262
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:08.039
been out in the woods just sitting
there. It doesn't make any sense.

263
00:17:08.960 --> 00:17:11.359
Yes, he's the one you were
telling us about the other day when the

264
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:15.759
creature stole a chicken, right,
I said, you said he told you

265
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.920
that having animals on the property wasn't
a good idea. Ashton shifted in his

266
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:22.920
seat. That's correct. I bet
we have figured out now why that is.

267
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:26.039
There's a dog man and a big
foot on the property, and he

268
00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:30.400
knew it. We all looked at
one another, and I knew that we

269
00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:33.359
had the same question running through our
minds. Why would he be sitting out

270
00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:37.279
there in the middle of the woods
at night, knowing that these cryptid creatures

271
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:40.920
could easily kill him? I knew. Ashton said that he was peculiar and

272
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:42.680
he had his quirks and flaws.
But that's a little bit much. If

273
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:45.720
you ask me, do you have
any way of getting in touch with him?

274
00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:49.480
Ashton, John asked, I don't
have his number. No, Ashton

275
00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:52.799
said, disappointedly, I have no
way of getting in touch with him at

276
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:56.000
all. Actually, once he left
the property, that was the last time

277
00:17:56.000 --> 00:18:00.480
I saw him until you sent me
the picture. He seemed to relieved to

278
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:04.480
be leaving. Connie had stood up
and began pacing. What has me baffled

279
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:10.079
is, I'm sure what has everyone
baffled after hearing that. Why why did

280
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:11.759
he come back if he was so
glad to get rid of this property?

281
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:15.480
And secondly, why is he putting
himself in harm's way by just sitting there

282
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:18.480
like that? By the looks of
it, he didn't have a care in

283
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.759
the world while he was out there. He certainly didn't seem afraid. We

284
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.599
have to figure out some way to
get his information so we can talk to

285
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:30.559
him and see if we can get
answers to those questions. Connie was right,

286
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.119
we wouldn't be able to put any
of the pieces of the puzzle together

287
00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:40.119
without mister Henry Webb. Stay tuned
for more Sasquatch Odyssey will be right back

288
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:47.400
after these messages. The days passed
by, however, we couldn't find anything

289
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:51.119
on him. These days, people
locked up their contact information good and tight.

290
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:53.519
Landlines were almost non existent, and
he may not even have a cell

291
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:59.440
phone. Some people do and some
don't. That only left two things for

292
00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:02.319
us to try. We were going
to have to keep an eye out on

293
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:04.920
the trail cameras to try to pick
up a pattern, and we would also

294
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.200
have to camp out to try to
talk to him. The good thing is

295
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:11.480
he had to come past our house, so there would be no need for

296
00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:14.759
us to stain in the woods.
We were gearing up to go check the

297
00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:18.240
trail cameras early one morning. It
had been early quiet, with no activity

298
00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:22.359
on the property, no sounds from
the woods, no harassment of our animals,

299
00:19:22.400 --> 00:19:26.319
and no wild calls. I was
hopeful that the cameras were doing what

300
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:30.880
we had set them out for.
And that this wasn't a fluke. Connie

301
00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:33.599
and I were even able to sit
out on the back deck one night and

302
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.440
star gaze. She and I opened
the door to leave, and they're on

303
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:41.039
the porch, said Henry Webb.
We were both taken aback. He stood

304
00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:45.039
up to greet us and stuck out
his hand. The name's Henry Webb.

305
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:48.720
It's nice to meet you, fine
folk. How are you liking this here

306
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:53.440
house? He said in a strong
Southern drawl. Henry was stout, maybe

307
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:57.319
five ft ten. He had a
longer gray beard, but it seemed neatly

308
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:03.519
kemped. He had grimmed glasses and
a sideway smile that stretched across his aging

309
00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:07.319
face. He looked a lot less
scary than he did on the trail camera.

310
00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:10.960
I was glad for that. Connie
and I glanced at each other in

311
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:14.960
disbelief. How was he here?
We had looked for him all over the

312
00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:18.519
place. Did we somehow put a
shock wave out into the universe to manifest

313
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:22.839
him here? That was silly,
I knew, but I didn't know how

314
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:26.839
else to explain it. I shook
his hand, while oddly staring at him

315
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:30.160
all the while. Well, you
look like you've done seen a ghost.

316
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.960
Boy. Are you okay, he
said as he chuckled. Connie walked over

317
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:37.119
to break the tension. Yes,
we're okay. You just caught us by

318
00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:40.519
surprise, that's all. Look.
I don't mean to be forward or strange

319
00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:44.279
when I say this, but we've
been looking all over for you, Henry

320
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:48.240
Scratch's boding head. You've been looking
for me. Why's that? He asked?

321
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:52.319
I was confused. Clearly he had
seen the trail cam that took his

322
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:55.640
picture. He looked right at it. He would have had to have known

323
00:20:55.720 --> 00:20:57.759
that we had pulled the pictures and
questioned why he was on our property in

324
00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:02.119
the middle of the night. Well, mister Webb, I began, but

325
00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:06.000
he interrupted me. Mister Webb,
was my father. Please call me Henry,

326
00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:10.200
he said, I started again.
Henry, we know that you've been

327
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:12.400
on our property. We pulled the
pictures and we saw that you were sitting

328
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:17.319
there in a very dangerous place.
We were concerned for your safety and also

329
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:21.160
curious as to why you were there
late at night. We enlisted the help

330
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:22.720
of our friends and showing them the
picture of you, so maybe we could

331
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.519
figure out who you were and what
you were doing there. The man you

332
00:21:26.599 --> 00:21:30.319
sold the house too, had talked
about you in the past. He was

333
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.240
the one who identified you. Henry
smiled. Yes, he was a very

334
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:37.960
nice fellow. He had a good
looking family, too, But I warned

335
00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:41.119
him about the animals. It's not
a good idea, you know. I

336
00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:44.960
saw you had way more back there
than he did when I came by the

337
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:47.519
other night, so I stopped to
give you guys a warning as well.

338
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:52.119
I'm intrigued, Henry, do tell
one, why shouldn't we And two,

339
00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:55.880
why do you think it's okay to
go on to our property and just sit

340
00:21:55.960 --> 00:22:00.839
there? I said, Interested in
his response, Henry sat back and Connie

341
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:04.480
and I joined him. His breath
was ragged as he began. I know

342
00:22:04.599 --> 00:22:08.640
you already know, but I'll humor
you anyway. I first moved here when

343
00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:12.240
I was nearly twenty five years of
age. My beautiful bride and I shared

344
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:15.599
a lot of memories in this house. Right here. We raised two strapping

345
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:18.440
young men, and I taught them
everything I knew about hunting and fishing.

346
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:23.279
It was then we first realized that
we were not alone. On one particular

347
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:26.960
hunting trip, the boys and I
were trailing a deer, one of the

348
00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:30.240
biggest bucks we'd ever seen. I
was so proud when my oldest boy shot

349
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:33.079
it. I don't know, I
guess this thing smelled it. As the

350
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.519
deer ran, leaving the scent of
blood everywhere, we heard a snarling growl

351
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:41.400
in the distance. We looked everywhere
for the deer, hoping that it had

352
00:22:41.400 --> 00:22:47.480
fallen somewhere close. The thing is. The growls got closer and louder.

353
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:51.720
I could see him starting to tremble
as he recalled this vivid memory from years

354
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:55.720
ago, almost like it had just
happened. He was traumatized, for sure.

355
00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:00.559
I told him he didn't have to
go on, but he persisted ahead,

356
00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:03.920
not willing to let this deer go. It would have given us meat

357
00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:07.519
for a good bit. We trudged
ahead. As the cold wind started to

358
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.759
blow harder through the trees. A
whistle came from somewhere in the woods,

359
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:15.720
echoing through the valley. We paused
in our tracks. The trees began to

360
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:19.640
sway and the grove was moving farther
away. But what we saw step out

361
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:25.960
from behind the large oak tree was
something we never expected. Bigfoot, as

362
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:30.039
plain as day. I swear all
my life I know how crazy it sounds,

363
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:33.680
but it was there. We saw
it. The boy screamed and I

364
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.359
just stood there in shock. The
big foot ran back into the woods and

365
00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:41.319
disappeared. We saw the deer just
then close to where the big foot was.

366
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:45.359
We hesitantly made our way over to
the deer, shaking the whole time.

367
00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:48.039
I didn't know if it was going
to reach out and grab us or

368
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:52.119
not, but we hadn't heard any
movement anywhere. We drugged the deer out

369
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:55.319
of there, but I couldn't get
the boys back into the woods after that.

370
00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:00.160
Connie and I sighed and told him
about our experiences with Bigfoot. Then

371
00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:03.680
we asked him about the dog men. He acknowledged them as well. So

372
00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:07.559
why in the world would you sit
out in the woods alone at night,

373
00:24:07.720 --> 00:24:11.960
knowing that they're out there, Connie
asked, aren't you afraid that they'll attack

374
00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:15.440
you? Because surely what we experienced
out there is real and they are predators.

375
00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:19.759
Silence filled the air as he searched
for the right words. He was

376
00:24:19.799 --> 00:24:26.079
only able to stammer out his reply. I have nothing left. Those woods

377
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:30.079
are where my best memories are.
I come out here at night because no

378
00:24:30.160 --> 00:24:33.720
one else will be there. I
just sit there and reminisce on the good

379
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.519
times with my boys. I know
I wanted to move out as soon as

380
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:40.599
they were grown up and have their
own lives. I didn't want my wife

381
00:24:40.599 --> 00:24:44.440
to be around that. That's when
I sold the house. But I told

382
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:48.279
that boy not to have animals,
and he had too nice a family to

383
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:52.839
experience that too. I didn't tell
him the monsters lived here though. One

384
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:56.200
he wouldn't have believed me, and
two he wouldn't have bought the house.

385
00:24:56.680 --> 00:25:00.039
I can only assume he didn't listen
since he moved as will. I'm motioned

386
00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:03.920
for Connie to call John, and
John called Ashton. They arrived at our

387
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:07.920
house shortly after. Ashton and John
sat and talked to Henry, and Ashton

388
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:12.640
told Henry of what he'd experienced before
they moved. Connie came out and brought

389
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:17.119
glasses of iced tea for all of
us. We need to figure out some

390
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:19.680
way to get rid of these awful
creatures, Henry, would you be willing

391
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:23.440
to come help us? Clearly you
don't fear them, Connie said, Henry

392
00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:26.680
chuckled. I know you think you
can get rid of em, but you

393
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:32.079
can't. The bigfoot of the woods. They're your only hope. That's what

394
00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:36.519
saved me and my boys that day. The bigfoot whistle. That's how I

395
00:25:36.559 --> 00:25:38.000
think I keep them away from me. When I go sit in the woods,

396
00:25:38.279 --> 00:25:42.680
I whistle. I hear movement,
but no growling. I like to

397
00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:47.559
think that I called the bigfoot in
for protection. It's like my special power.

398
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:52.640
There's the crazy quirks Ashton was talking
about. I was waiting for them

399
00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:56.359
to appear. I'm not doubting any
of Henry's story, but having bigfoot powers

400
00:25:56.599 --> 00:26:00.119
that takes it a little far.
You'd be willing to go out with us

401
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:04.920
as a group, John asked,
we have all the necessary equipment stuff I

402
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:10.160
know you never used forty years ago. As we sat waiting for his reply,

403
00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:12.759
a howl came from deep within the
trees that shook us all to our

404
00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:18.039
core. Well, Henry said,
I think whatever that was just made up

405
00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:21.839
my mind for me. Let's chase
this son of a bitch out of here.

406
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:32.960
They say you don't gotta go home, but you can stay. I

407
00:26:33.079 --> 00:27:06.160
don't want to be dis try try
everything. Call it baby baby, my

408
00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:59.359
joy for me to stay right you
call it right away. I'll try for

409
00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:25.720
mess days us to us. Ustiss
