Speaker 3: You're listening to Paranormal Portal on Revolver podcasts.
Speaker 4: Oh please feeling in?
Speaker 3: I lost our control all that and no, she's a.
Speaker 4: She's so she can't leader should not hand you with
the lydia glance.
Speaker 3: She's she's a Paranormal Portal podcast. I'm your host, Brent
Thomas I'm absolutely thrilled you're here with us. Uh, and
by us, I mean that I'm not alone. I got
my good friend and co host, mister Don Longbeard here
with me.
Speaker 5: I am here again.
Speaker 3: You are, and uh, you're kind of like a boomerang man.
I threw you out and you just keep coming back. No,
I'm glad you could be here again. Thanks for coming
in and being a part of this. Uh. The episodes
are always a lot more fun when you're here to
carry the carry the loads. Well, I'm something. I don't
know about, sweet, but I'm something. But ladies and gentlemen,
tonight we're going to be talking about some terrifying dog
Man encounters and uh, you know, we did a show
just kind of summarizing the dog Man just a little
while ago, and uh, that is that here by the way,
I don't know. I don't even know either, but we'll
make sure it airs before this one does if it hasn't. Sorry,
the entertainment is free, ladies and gentlemen. But no, I
mean when we record these podcasts, we're doing them well
in advance of the actual air dates, and sometimes we
you know, may end up backwards in our scheduling. But uh,
that one has been on. We we didn't really get
real in depth with that because it was more introducing
the topic and our reflections of it. And if you
recall that episode, we basically said, you know, hey, you know,
Bigfoot is obviously big and bad and you know, can
be incredibly intimidating. But if Bigfoot were to have a
really crabby, a little bit smaller but ferocious cousin, that
would be the dog Man. And it seems to be
everybody that's had big Foot encounters, of course, have you know,
talked about how powerful the presence was and how how
terrifying it was. And I'm certainly I believe I had
an encounter as well, and I'm here to tell you that, yeah,
it was. It was terrifying and I thought I was
going to die. However, whatever it is with these these
Dogmen encounters, the ferocity is just like cranked up to twelve,
you know, on a scale of one to ten. They are,
you know, right, they get right up and personal. And
you know, I got to tell you that if I
had to look at one of the two faces really
close to my face, the Bigfoot would be my preference,
you know, because you're talking about like an oversized wolfhead
full of big teeth and claws and stuff. And while
I'm sure if they were going to get aggressive, it
would it would be only a momentary WinCE of pain
and it would probably all be over. But still, you know,
I don't know. I think, you know, Bigfoot woul probably
just mash you into mud. And you know, with a
dog man, I'm thinking, you know, do they eat you afterwards?
Where does this show you know?
Speaker 5: Or do they just kill for pleasure?
Speaker 3: Right? Because they look like they would right all of
the depictions. And again, if you're not sure what a
dog man looks like, think of the Underworld movies with
Kate Beckinsdale. Many people that have encounterdog Man have said,
my god, it looks just like that. It looks just
like an underworld. They've used that movie title to try
to explain what they saw visually. And of course, you know,
if I saw that yet, you've got to believe that,
you know, I'd be scraping under as well. There's no question.
But the nice thing about it, and I say nice
in you know, in air quotes here, but it is
that nice. Well, the nice thing is is that obviously
they have they clearly have the ability to kill at
will like they there is pretty much nothing a person
could do if if one of these beings wanted to
end your life, they could do it and just you know,
as easy as you know, blinking an eye, but they
choose not to. So these people are having these really
horribly scary confrontations with these things. But generally these things
just kind of say, hey, I'm here, I'm the boss,
and you need to go now. And it's just it's
more of a territorial display. It seems like, you know,
I wouldn't want to push that envelope. And see, now,
there are some great episodes out there. I was just
listening to this old episode again from Dark Waters, and
if you haven't heard of Dark Waters, then you need
to go on YouTube and look up Dark Waters. The
guy does a great job of doing paranormal shows, and
he really does a lot of research and narrates them
as well. But he goes over this story of the
siege at Lockett Ranch, and this is a family's encounter
of being basically under siege by a pack of dog men.
And you know, if that story is accurate, and I
believe if he did a show on it, he generally
does his homework and doesn't waste time with people making
up real grand tales and stuff. He does do background,
He does a lot of interviewing of different witnesses that
were involved, and so he must have felt that the
story was compelling enough to put it on so and
I think he has a pretty good BS meter for
that stuff. Now anybody. There are people out there, of
course that say, well, any story that says a dog
man is reel is BS. But you know, quite contrary,
there are a lot of people coming forward with experiences
that can't be explained. They just can't be allD figments
of the imagination. But the ferocity and the tenacity of
these creatures and the intelligence that they displayed in this
narrative of the siege at Lockett Ranch was really it
was both terrifying and impressive at the same time, because
they're obviously working with a pretty high level of reasoning.
It's not just these these real fairal beasts running around
just ripping up everything. There was intelligence with what they
were doing. There were you know, there was plotting, planning,
all kinds of things involved. And it was a siege
of several days, if not a week, of dealing with
these things over and over, and apparently at the very
end of it, the family just decided to sell and
get the hell out of there because whatever was going
on was so intense. But I would just recommend look
up Dark Waters on YouTube, find the Siege Lockett Ranch,
and certainly check out his other episodes too. He's really
I've been listening to him for years and I really
always felt he does a great job. But it's a
great demonstry of how cunning these creatures are, and the
whole narrative of it is just amazing. So we're going
to go through some similar encounters, obviously not that in
depth and not that obviously not taking place over that
amount of time, but we hope you enjoy them. And
a lot of these are just real quick observations that
people have made about these creatures. But just before I
go any further down, I've been talking for a while,
where are you at with all this?
Speaker 5: Well, you know, yeah, I've mentioned that I would rather
I would rather not see dog men. And we had
a friend of ours talking about maybe there were dog
men in her backyard. That was Cindy yep, And you know,
her backyard is only like fifty miles away from our backyard.
So I don't really want them in this area, you know.
You know I got that call, oh a year and
a half ago, a year ago October about the possible
sasquatch blind, yes, and uh, you know that was freaky
enough for the people that were living there, you know.
And that was only you know, just down from my place,
you know, So you know, I mean that was freaky enough.
But when when Cindy started talking about dog Man, and
after we had you know, we've already talked to a
couple of people, we talked to, you know, Linda Godfrey
and such and so, and and it's like, I don't
I don't want to meet these, these are the ones
I don't want to meet, you know. And so I
I'm right there with you, I you know, geez no,
thank you. Yeah, you know. And and you know, having
read the descriptions of the seven eight foot you know,
three four hundred pounds, you know, upright walking canids, right,
you know, with these giant jaws and just these it's horrible, horrible.
Speaker 3: It is. It's scary, scary stuff, and uh, I don't
want it. Yeah, I think anybody that's had the experience
of meeting them. It's probably in the same boat as you. Yeah,
I never want to someone I don't want it, don't
want to have that happen again. But the first one
I want to talk to you guys about is apparently
coming out of an encounter out of nineteen eighty six,
and it came out of Michigan, and it says Ray
Greenway was driving home from the Manistee Army recruiting station.
It was late at night, and he noticed something in
the darken field beside him. His headlights were reflecting off
of what appeared to be eyes, but they were much
too high off the ground to be a deer. Suddenly,
the unidentifiable creature began running towards him and made an
incredible leap clear across a two lane road. And there
was no animal that it could be. And I know
this was not a deer, Ray later recalled. He went
on to describe its yellow eyes impossible leaping ability. And
I do remember that I saw both eyes as if
as it was looking at me the whole time. That,
along with the leaping ability, is something that I will
never forget.
Speaker 6: Wow.
Speaker 3: So you know, Okay, So if you look at a
white tailed deer. Let's just say, you know, probably one
of the most common fauna all over the face of
North America. And deer are everywhere, of course, but our
our local brand seems to be white white tailed deer.
They're just the most most common across America and North America.
I know that. You know, I've seen pictures of them
leaping over like a ten foot fence. You know, they
can just they are just so agile and amazing, and
you know that in and of itself is an incredible leap,
and they can clear, you know, entire roads. But I'm
not sure what this guy saw, but it sounds like
it was so much more profound than that.
Speaker 5: Right, well, I think from the point of view, of course,
you know, if you can, we can sit back here
and talk about it all day long. But you know,
not being in literally in the driver's seat on that,
you know, that's kind of that's that would make it
more even more intense. So you know, you just can't
get more intense than having a dog man leaping after
your car.
Speaker 3: Probably not, and if you do, you don't want to.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the only other one would be leaping towards you.
Speaker 3: Or leaping onto your car.
Speaker 5: Your car, I mean through the window like a mad moose.
Speaker 3: Speaking of that, just a quick segue. The neighbor lady
was out. She's an older lady, but it's a wonderful,
wonderful lady. She was out more all hunting just this
last week, and she said they were up in this mountain,
passed this It was not far away from the downtown area,
but they were walking along and suddenly this this adolescent
moose came out and she's got a little like toy poodle.
That thing went after the moose and I was just like,
oh no. She said the moose was stomping at it
and stuff.
Speaker 5: Oh geez.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I guess everything worked out okay. But god,
you know moose are moose kill more people every year
than bears. So with that, because they're always running on
like a testosterone overload, yes, they are so very crazy.
But true story. So here's another reference that I thought
was pretty interesting. And this is because a lot of
people like to say, well, you know, this is just
these are just offshoots of popular culture, and you know,
the old Bee movies back in the fifties gave rise
to all of these phenomena and a lot of people
like to cite that, you know, flying saucers and UFOs
weren't a thing until the B movies, and that's simply
not true. And the same is true, and they would say, oh,
the wolfman, you know, wear wolf kind of thing. That's
just you know, some carryover from old B movie Hollywood. Well,
the earliest known dog man siting apparently was in eighteen
eighty seven Ladies and Gentlemen, and what happened is the
first first known dog man encounter was documented in Wexford County, Michigan.
So it's kind of interesting that it's been known as
the Michigan dog Man forever. Apparently by that they mean
literally forever forever. Two lumberjacks were out in the woods
when they spotted a creature they described as having the
body of a man but the head of a dog.
Other sides either sightings rather began to trickle in through
the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and locals found dog tracks
and the dirt around several dead horses. The horses allegedly
died of fright. I didn't know a horse could die aphright.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't imagine anything can diaphright.
Speaker 3: Well that's probably true, but it's you know, wow, that's
pretty intense. So eighteen eighty seven, of course, and by
it makes it sound like they just kind of showed
up in eighteen eighty seven. But ladies and gentlemen, you
gotta remember, in that time, most of North America was
largely unexplored other than the first Nations, of course, were
pretty intimately aware of the ground in the land and
what went on around. But this is when people were
still pushing, you know, outside of the major metropolitan areas,
you know, and expanding. So it doesn't surprise me that,
you know, the sightings probably hadn't happened up until then
because allegedly, well I imagine most people probably wouldn't come
forward and say, hey, I saw a big werewolf, you know,
or whatever, I saw this big wolf person, because I
don't think that it's it's it's probably always been something
that will make you a social outcast. It's not something
or you probably get accused of witchcraft, like, oh, you're
seeing these weird demon creatures, you must be evil and
you know, et cetera, et cetera. So probably wasn't safe
to come out and talk about these kind of things.
But apparently eighteen eighty seven in Michigan. But I think
when they say that the other sightings began to happen,
it's just as people pushed more and more into these
different territories, right that they started discovering these things so
pretty terrifying stuff. Now there's another thing, another account here.
It says one witness claims a creature best described as
a werewolf or dog man, was stalking up the hill
behind her house in the late fall of two thousand
and one. My stepdaughter and I were looking out the
French doors to see a creature black in color, like
a big bear with haunches and the head of a wolf. Wow,
that's got to be terribly frightening. And while that was
the first and only visual the Cass County, Michigan residents experience,
they can still hear it splashing around the twenty acre
swamp land at night, and sometimes they can even hear
it shrieking. According to them, it has the scream of
an infant, loud and hysterical.
Speaker 5: Creepy.
Speaker 3: That's a really creepy sound. I mean, that's that's not
even nice.
Speaker 5: You know. But they said it's got the body of
a big bear, well like a they.
Speaker 3: Likened it to a bear, So in other words, it
was it was not life apparently, but it was more
stocky and strong.
Speaker 5: Well, you know, there are reports of bear men as well, So.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess there's I mean, there's there's sheep squatch.
There's all there's bad squatch out there. I mean, you can't.
It doesn't seem to be any limit to the kind
of of claims that can be out there, and ladies
and gentlemen, I'm not casting aspersions at that, I'm not
making fun of it. But what it demonstrates to me
is that either we really don't know what the hell
is going on in our own world, or you know,
what are we dealing with? Here? Are we dealing with
perhaps uh, manifestations of a different nature, you know, and
which which are actually physical creatures and what are perhaps
more spiritual manifestations that are freaky looking?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know, That's what I think about,
because it doesn't seem to there doesn't seem to be
any any you know, limit to the claims that could
be made. I mean, we have, of man, we've got
bad squatch, we got sheep squatch, we got sasquatch, we
got momos and skunk apes and on all these different things,
and they are they are different. I mean they're all
they are all probably related in some way or come
from the same family tree. But I don't know if
there's some I don't know about the bad squatch thing
that to me has really got me perplexed because you know,
apparently it's the size of a sasquatch, but it's flying around.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well here's the thing. It's like a sasquatch is like
seven eight nine hundred pounds. What kind of wings do
you need to get that off the air? Yeah? Yeah,
I mean it must have the wingspan of a of
a of a jet, right, Yeah, very strange. But I mean,
these are the claims that are out there, and could
they be sure? I mean, I don't doubt anything, but
I think at some point we're not really At some
point some of these may not be dealing with actual creatures.
They could just be some kind of weird manifestations or
windows or gateways or whatever. I don't know, because I
just can't believe that there's that many things out there
that we don't know. Now, could they come and go?
Maybe that's where the key is. I don't know. So
here's another claim that comes out of the First Nations,
and I think this is interesting, and it says that
some people believe the dog man is the spirit of
Cheyenne warriors. Back in the eighteen sixties, the Cheyenne had
established their own group of warriors, known as dog soldiers
or dog men. Native Americans would spend years studying or
becoming one with their spirit animal, taking on the mannerisms
and strength of wolves or wild dogs. Allegedly, all the
Cheyenne dog men were killed off by the US Army,
according to lower passed down from the elders. However, not
all of them died. According to let some of the
dog men actually shape shifted into dogs and now roam
the woods and swamplands. It's worth noting that while all
witnesses of these half dog half man beasts admit to
feeling terrified, there haven't been any known deaths or serious
physical attacks attributed attributed to a dog man. This is
thought to be because of the Indian belief that one
must invite evil onto themselves. Therefore, the creatures cannot harm
you unprovoked. You know, I think that's that I certainly
wouldn't rely on that though you know, it's like, well,
I haven't invited you in, so screw you, because that
could mean so if you take that logic, would if
you were, in fact were living unvirtuous life, is that
not inviting evil in? You know what I mean? Right?
Speaker 5: But I think this comes down to, you know, the
the tooth for a tooth kind of thing, you know,
where if you're if you're doing evil acts like farming people,
then I you know, that would that would be you know,
cause for a dog man, this the Cheyenne dogmen or
Chyenne dog warriors whatever they're referred to as, would be
would be part of the the worry. But I think
if you're just kind of a like me, kind of
a wise ass, you know, I don't think that's necessarily
so I guess it just depends on the severity of
what you know you do unto others.
Speaker 3: Right, So it is pretty crazy, though it is pretty
crazy and others. There's some stuff that I'm finding that
is more video and that certainly doesn't do us any good.
But there's apparently attacks that have been captured by on Star,
and I think what that one's about is that there
was a car crash and on Star was talking to
a man and then all of a sudden, some weird
growls happened and the man suddenly disappeared. Pertly, I can't
play that, but I would. I would encourage you guys,
if you're interested in hearing more about that, look look
for that. I'm sure you can find it on YouTube.
But it's a dog man attack and on Star, which
is the you know, the onboard you help system that
a lot of cars have built in now Here's something
that I find interesting is that there's also a legend
that the dog Man isn't around all the time, and
it's not. It's not always active. So apparently in Michigan
there's a legend that the dog Man only prowls in
ten year cycles. So it says descriptions of the Michigan
dog Man have varied over the years, so it's safe
to say that if it exists, it's not a lone wolf.
Well yeah, it's like there's not just one bigfoot either,
you know. These creatures are usually described as having blowing
amber or ice blue eyes, the head of a dog
with vicious fangs, and a human torso they can stand
up on two legs and are somewhere between six and
seven feet tall. I'm here to tell you I've heard
reports all the way up to ten feet, but I
think in traditional traditional lore or you know, they're not
a whole lot taller than people. But I've since heard
many many people claim that they're in the bigfoot range
as well, although not as big and bulky that they're
more lithe and athletic looking. They are incredibly fast and
alleged to have a horrible scream like howl. According to
a local legend, the dog Man appears in ten year cycles.
Early sightings of the cryptid were reported all throughout Michigan, however,
and soon spread to Wisconsin. Alleged sightings begin to pop
up all over the country soon afterwards. Wow, So I
don't know, they don't really substantiate that claim with any
kind of so I don't know what to make of that.
But I think what may have happened is that they
they it was inevitable that people and these these beings
were going to meet, just due to human expansion, and
so they probably at first were just like, hey, you know,
and and and being real territorial. But maybe what they
found out was that when they did that, a whole
bunch of people came with guns looking for them, and
maybe they learned really quickly to be you know, not
to be seen, you know. Right. But now the other
part of it is that there's so many claims of
people shooting these things and that the bullets having no
effect whatsoever. Well there is that they should probably try
the silver ones. That might be that might be the ticket.
But I think we're gonna go to a break here quick,
and then we're gonna come right back at it, ladies
and gentlemen, more of the terrifying dog Man. So don't
go away, everybody. We'll be back.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 3: We're back, and we are back at it with more
terrifying dog Man encounters. So far, we're just getting these
little anecdotal references. I hope that some of these work
out to be more terrified. Yeah. I may have to
do some quick searching here. I thought I had. I
thought I had something good pulled up here to reference
throughout the show. But it's it's more more interesting, more
anecdotal and informational than it is terrifying.
Speaker 5: Right, yeah, you know. And I was just you were
talking about how far back it goes, you know, when
you were talking about the eighteen eighty seven sighting or report.
It reminded me of the Saint Christopher issue. But that's,
like you said, more historical than than creepy or exciting.
But you remember, Saint Christopher was portrayed in quite a
few portraits as a as a man with a dog's head, sinuscephletic,
as sinosphletic, cephalic, he's got a lot of it, but
it says uphalic, sinucephalic. Yeah, it's one. One thing that
I've read here is that Saint Christopher was a large
man close to close, you know, an upper six foot range,
and at that time that's quite large, and he had
a dog's head. There was a German poet that told
the story that he was a giant of the cenocephalic
species of the land well, which is kena who ate
flesh and barked. Eventually Christopher met the christ child, regretted
his former his former behavior, and received baptism, and he
was then given a human appearance. So you know, there's
there's also that. But then again the dog, the dog
headed Egyptian god Anubis. You know, we talked about sinocephaly
with him as well. You know, so you know there
there are reports that go even farther back than eighteen
eighty seven. So you've got one biblical and one ancient Egyptian.
So so you know, what, is there a correlation there?
I would say probably, but who knows, right, you know?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 5: So yeah, I thought that was interesting.
Speaker 3: So you had a yeah something as well?
Speaker 5: Right, yeah, I do, I do. Let's see here An
Arkansas man details creepy childhood encounter with air quotes were wolf.
The report says, well, the winness says, I'm a forty
I'm forty four years old now, and I've had two
encounters in my life where I'm absolutely confident. I saw
a large, hairy wolf or wolf like creature. Once was
in the nineteen seventies when I was rather young, maybe
seven or eight at the most. The creature was looking
at me in my bed on a night that was
quite stormy. Before I saw it. I remember how big
and broad it was, and how it stood on two
legs as a human would. It was a dark knight,
but I could see the thing easily as it departed.
As the departed storm was still close enough to flash
lightning and light up everything outside. Wow, the thing had
a wolf face and yellowish eyes, not bright yellow, not
fluorescent like either, more of a subdued yellow. It had
pointy ears that seemed to keep moving through the whole experience,
like he was twitching them all the time. For some reason,
it never snarled, growled, or howled, but it did. It
looked right at me. I was in bed, trying to
settle down and go back to sleep after the storm
which rattled me as a child. For some reason, I
felt like I had to look outside. I turned over
and sat up, and not twenty feet from this thing.
I was not twenty feet from this thing, and separated
only by a rot iron door with glass in it.
Speaker 3: Wow, excuse me.
Speaker 5: I became terrified at this point started yelling like mad.
My grandmother and little sister were asleep in the bed,
even closer to the door, but at an angle they
could not sit up and see what I saw. I
was literally scared out of my wits. I started screaming,
and quickly my mother grandmother woke up, turned on the lamp.
It says lap, but turned on the lamp, then came
over to me quickly, and of course she sat She
asked what was wrong? I was staring at the thing,
and I can only point to it. I couldnot speak
a word when I pointed, it started stepping back away
from the door. As my grandmother looked to see what
scared me. She never saw it, but I'm confident she did.
She said she never saw it, but I'm confident she did.
Her voice changed and she woke up immediately. My sister
woke up about this time and stayed in the bed.
She was younger than me, and started crying because I was.
She was scared, because I was. I saw the thing
turn away and move away, not at a fast pace.
It just stepped away and faded into the dark. So
now that is creepy, creepy. Just wake up out.
Speaker 3: Of the blue.
Speaker 5: Hi, how you doing. I'm just on the other side
of your door.
Speaker 3: Sorry to wake you mean to No, that's horribly scary.
I don't imagine. I can't imagine what that might be like,
but I can I can bet that you know, it's
one of those situations where that's if it's that close, Yeah,
you've got to be You've got to be prepared to
make your to meet your maker. I think, I mean,
that's really it's what else is there if something that
ferocious is that close and looking at you. That's terribly
terribly scary. Yeah, really wild. Did you have anything else?
Speaker 5: Well yeah, yeah, let me open this one here and uh,
this one, this one is a dog man encounter in Colorado.
A man in Colorado claims he saw a creature that
looked like a mix between a human and it dull.
The man, whose name wasn't provided, said on Moufon that
he was driving home from work after picking up his
dog when he encountered this strange being in October. He
explains that he noticed the dog getting anxious, so he
pulled over to let her out. She wouldn't do her business.
She started barking. At first, I thought she was barking
at traffic, but there was no traffic.
Speaker 3: He said.
Speaker 5: The boulder collar out of man about the ledged encounter.
That's when he says he noticed five lights hovering in
the distance. I quickly put down the dog and put
the dog in the car and went to investigate. Those
last lights rose higher and then got smaller and started
to zigzag. Then, he continued, He continues, they vanished, but
when he got it back in his car, his dog
was reportedly terrified. I tried comfanying her, and that's when
I know something moving in the corner of my eye.
I looked up and saw something running behind my car
the tail lights. The man described the creature as having
red fur a tail, but he adds it also had
a human face. Wow, it's hard to describe. The eyewitness
goes on to say that that the dog was still
terrified when arriving home and wouldn't leave the car. He
states he had a few nightmares after that. So is
this an alien dog? Man?
Speaker 3: You know, that's the thing. And that's that's the weird
gray area that comes up the Bigfoot, you know what
I mean. See, I I was get praised for those
kind of things, but honestly know there's accidental but you
know that that comes up in Bigfoot all the time. Yeah,
you know. Now here's the thing that's kind of cool
about that is that we had a listener submitted story
of her experience that she thought it was just a
really vivid dream, but I'm pretty sure that it was
more probably an abduction scenario. But she was in this
scenario and she she was in this uh this space,
and she didn't know any walls, but it was just
these this black room with these spotlighted areas, and in
these areas she could see other people that you know,
to cut to the chase. It was like she was
abducted and was in this one spotlight area and she
looked around the room and saw other people in different
spotlight areas, and then she saw these variety of different
you know, alien beings. Some looked more human and some
looked less human. But in one of the spotlight areas,
on a table much like she was, or standing, I
don't remember, but she saw this bigfoot and it was,
you know, frozen just like she was. She couldn't really move,
and it seemed to but she said she looked in
the eyes and it looked at her, and there was
just like this connection and she could tell the wisdom
and all that was there. Now a lot of people think, oh,
if you see a bigfoot and then you've seen you know,
flying saucer lights or weird lights, it must mean the
bigfoot are extraterrestrial, right, And my thinking is that, you know,
from what we understand about a lot of these cryptids
is that they're incredibly curious, you know, so we we
see these weird lights and we want to go see
what's going on. We want to check it out. If
they see these things again, you know they're going to
want to go check it out too, right, And we know,
we know that people claim to be abducted, cows are
sucked up into craft and you know, all kinds of
different creatures in fauna have been observed, you know, being
taken into UFOs. Right, why not ufo or why not
sasquatch as well? Why would it not investigate them as well?
These aliens. So I'm not really big on the whole
idea that sasquatch could be from outer space, nor am
I big on the whole idea that that dog men
are from outer space. I just think that there's a
lot going on here we don't understand. But you know,
for whatever reason, they seem to be on the research
list just like we are, you.
Speaker 5: Know, you know, and that would make sense, especially if
they're looking and we've postulated this before in previous episodes.
You know, maybe they're looking for that a lost strand
of DNA or a lost piece of some kind of biology.
And you know, if they're just scooping up people willy nilly,
then they're they're scooping up everything. You know, I'm because
you've got cows and and we got people and sheep.
Sheep have been reportedly abducted or mutilated in those ways
as well. You know, I'm sure there's probably wildlife that
we haven't realized. Dog, yeah, dogs, cats, you know, deer,
you know that we just don't know. Anytime we find
a dead deer, though, we assume it's a natural predator,
you know.
Speaker 3: So that's true. So there you go, and more times
than that, I'm sure it actually is, but I'm hoping so.
But you know, what if what if? Well, I mean,
is it so? Is it beyond the scope for reason
that everything on this planet is subject to being sucked
up into the hoovers? You know that the sauce or hoovers,
And you just.
Speaker 5: Gave me visions of world the war of the World
be sucked up there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. That's a horrible thing.
Speaker 5: That's horrible, fertilizing the land for terrorforming.
Speaker 3: Oh geez, I saw that red jelly there spraying everywhere.
Speaker 5: I had right there, like, oh no, it'll be okay,
don it's okay.
Speaker 3: I'm here with you. We are in the portal.
Speaker 5: You're fine, that's Yeah, that's true. Yeah, you can always
escape through the portal.
Speaker 3: That's right. So I got a story here. I hope
it's a good one. It looks like a good one.
But it said when I was younger, about sixteen or seventeen,
I had an encounter with something strange in the forest
near Danbury, Wisconsin. Now that's you know. Danbury, Wisconsin is
not that far from Elkhorn, which of course is the
Beast of Bray Road area for Linda Linda Godfrey's stomping grounds.
I don't think it's very far.
Speaker 5: I think it's up that as we speak.
Speaker 3: The background on me is that I'm six foot four
inches and athletic. I'm a hunter, camper and martial artists,
generally a survivalist. I was naive and I didn't give
nature a proper level of respect, and basically was a
cocky teenager who felt invincible. Our cabin had been on
Long Lake in Danbury, Wisconsin. The whole area is forested
for the most part. I was there on vacation with
my cousin and grandparents and it was a nice hot
summer day and we'd been we had decided to play
airsoft and I took airsoft. Really seriously, it's a great story. Well,
guy's a good writer too. And I wore a full
bedu woodland with camouflage camouflage mask even and my cousin
just wore jeans and the T shirt. We had a
battle which I took into the woods where I felt comfortable,
and we were about one hundred and fifty meters into
the forest when we stopped and I decided to tease
my cousin. I shushed him and said, hey, we're being
watched jokingly. Unfortunately it turned out not to be much
of a joke because I immediately then noticed the woods
were dead quiet, which only happens when a large predator
is around. I was on edge very quickly. Next next,
the feeling of being watch hit so hard. I started
scanning the surrounding area and then I saw it. The
whitish teeth gave it away. What I saw was at
the edge of a clearing about forty meters from us,
crouched and holding onto a tree with its left hand,
and it was panting and watching us with its ears up.
It had reddish brown hair slash fur, and it looked
kenine and in my head it clicked as a werewolf,
and I said to my cousin, we have to go,
and he bolted. I still had my eyes on it
when my cousin started sprinting, the creature charged. It ran
on two legs for maybe ten feet, and then dropped
to all fours and I turned and sprinted. I could
hear it crashing through the woods behind us. The the
who run out of the woods. I could hear it
crashing in the woods behind us, The who run out
of the woods. I don't know what that's supposed to mean,
but I just read I find them ladies and gentlemen.
Once back at the cabin, we discussed, and it's still
unclear if my cousins saw it. I told him I
thought I was a bear, to not freak him out,
but I know bears and it wasn't a bear. I
started doing research on these things after my encounter, which
brought me to many dog man related sites, and what
I saw coincides with other people's sightings. I'm now far
better about respecting nature, and I am extremely cautious with
the forests. If I go into nature alone, I'm always armed,
but I prefer to not be alone. Always trust your senses,
and that's you know that's true. Now this it sounds
like a charge of some kind. Clearly, if this thing
wanted them, it would have caught them, right, you know.
And again you know, on the physical scale, we are
not We are not very adept, We are slow, we
are awkward, you know. And you know, a squirrel could
outrun us, for God's sakes, and you know they got
like two inch legs. So you know, what would a
what would a wolf?
Speaker 5: For you?
Speaker 3: I mean, you ever you ever run from a dog
and they just have no trouble catching you know, as
valiant as an effort as people exert, you don't escape
a dog if it's charging at you and you don't
have any kind of cover. So that's pretty wild. I
don't know what that would feel like to see something
like that charging, but I have to imagine that, you know,
and I know what that's like. Have you ever had
that happen done being in the woods and just going
dead quiet, like like a funeral was happening.
Speaker 5: You know, I I don't know, okay, because you know,
I spent a lot of my life in Seattle, but
and my early childhood was certainly, you know, surrounded by
as a matter of fact, I grew up in the
Olympic Peninsula of Washington, which is pack northwest, so there's
always we always heard about Bigfoot, but I never really
I was not the child that paid attention. Okay, So
I don't recall, and as an adult, I really haven't
stayed in the mountains. Well, there was that time I
went huckleberry picking. Oh okay, we stayed out, we camped,
we cooked over a fire, had a tent, and it
was the most uncomfortable night of my life. Right, But
I don't recall any weird noises or anything coming near
or anything like that. So now I really haven't.
Speaker 3: I've experienced that one time, and what was going on
I probably have probably shared this. You've heard it before.
I'm sure there are live shows that probably heard it before,
but for the sake of the podcast, I'll share it here. Now,
this wasn't necessarily a cryptid experience at all, or or
or anything that I can verify. But I got a
call from some old friends that I used to be
you know, close to, and they lived up in the mountains,
and in fact it same house where I had my
sighting of a of a ufo. So okay, but they
were actually living up there at this point, and the
husband was out of town. He wasn't even in in
the area. And she called me and said, I don't
know what's going on, but the dog is going crazy.
He won't settle down. He's running around, barking and just
terrified and just freaking out. Can you come up now?
This is just her and their little baby daughter up
here up in the mountains, all by themselves. And so
I'm like, sure, I'll come up. And so I got
in my car and it's about a twenty minute drive,
maybe twenty five minutes, and I got out of there,
got up there, and of course it's pitch black up
in the mountains there except whatever ambient light is on it.
And she had all the floodlights on around the house
and stuff, which was good. And I got out of
my car and I stood there well when I was there,
and I called the dog over because he was familiar
with me. Then he settled down, but his hackles were
up constantly and he was just constantly shifting around, just
really uncomfortable. But then I realized the silence and it
was dead quiet.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 3: There wasn't a cricket even chirping. There was no crickets
going nothing. And that's the part that that seems really
bizarre to me. It's like, I understand if you know,
like the squirrels or the you know, the birds or
whatever go silent. This is, of course, is that night,
so there wouldn't have been squirrels or birds out and about,
but no sounds. Now, how the hell do crickets know? Yeah,
they seem to know though. They pick up on something
and they shut up too, you know, I mean, they
just the whole place goes dead quiet, like oh, it's
time to watch the main event, you know. Pay per
view was on, you know, and it was really really ominous,
and I had the feeling of a really ominous presence.
But I don't know, I didn't hear a thing. I
didn't hear any movements. I didn't. But I grabbed this
big you know, I didn't have any kind of firearm
or anything. It was just me and this you know,
five foot you know, piece of wood that I was
able to find and hang on to. And I'm like, well,
and I walked around the perimeter of the house and
checked out there and and I stayed there out there,
and slowly the crickets started chirping, and the frogs started
doing their thing, and the sounds came back, and it's
like it was like this big exhales like oh, you know,
and then it felt okay again. But whatever was going on,
something was there and I didn't hear it, I didn't
see it, I didn't smell it, but something was there,
and I mean, you know, quite honestly, I'm more prone
to think maybe it was a mountain lion looking at
the dog, going hey, you know, it's there's a there's
a meal. Because of course a mountain lion versus a
German shepherd, it's no contest. The mountain lion will tear
up you know, several dogs. Usually they'll run away, but
if they're hungry and hunting, you know, everything's on the menu,
and they certainly aren't intimidated by one dog now. But
you know, it's just the suddenly, you know, the sounds
started coming back, and then it was just like you know,
and even I think it was Duke that said, you know,
you ever notice even the wind seems to stop it,
you know now that you mentioned.
Speaker 5: It, Yeah, it's like there was nothing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so very wild, and I know what that's
like to have that feeling, that presence. It's just really
really ominous. So but you know, I can sympathize with
the person when he talked about the forest being still right,
because it is. It's just like you can't ignore the fact.
It's like they call it the deafening silence, right, you know,
it's just not a sound, but the fact that there's
not a sound is just screaming to all of your senses,
like there's not a sound? Why is there no sound?
Speaker 5: Right? So, you know, I looked up. I looked up
where Elkhorn, Michigan is compared to Long Lake. Now, Long
Lake and Danberry are two separate areas. Long Lake is
only three hours, so it can only be like one
hundred and fifty miles, right, because Danberry is three hundred
and forty miles east of Elkhorn, So it was actually
closer to Elkhorn than Danberry was. So yeah, it's definitely possible.
I'm not even gonna pronounced the name of the national
forest that it's in, but.
Speaker 3: The national forest, you know, And that's that's pretty cool.
And when you think about any kind of a large
predator needs a lot of ground, they need a lot
of range, like a grizzly bear. I think it's several
hundred square miles is part of their normal foraging range,
and so these things have got to have a diet
that's the equivalent to what a grizzly would be.
Speaker 5: Well, you know, and we've asked before the same kind
of question about bigfoot. What is their range? What is
their area? You know, how big do they range out?
You know, even mice and rats and raccoons have a
two mile radius from their home minimum.
Speaker 3: To mile ice.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, crazy, crazy.
Speaker 3: WoT many nuts close to the nest. It's always nuts.
So there's some kinds of nuts there. I don't even
know what to say that there's nothing to say, but no,
that's that's curious and it's very interesting. I don't know. Again,
this is certainly a crypt that I wouldn't want to
bump into, you know, and I'm interested in all this stuff,
but I mean, my god, could you imagine. Let's just
you know, let's do a visual exercise for a second.
You're having a camp out, you're having a good time,
speaking of which we're going to be the next month,
but you're having a good time, and you hear rustling outside,
so you come out of your tent and there stands
an eight foot pissed off werewolf. You know, I mean,
what do you do? What do you do?
Speaker 5: Don Well, first of all, I go back in my RV.
I turned the thing on and out of that tent.
No tent, no tent. It's the worst night of my life,
was it?
Speaker 3: Intent?
Speaker 5: We are you going to make me take the tent? Okay? Fine? Well, yeah,
that would be that would be very I would I'd go,
I'd try to. You know, what, where's my pistol? Is
a pistol big enough?
Speaker 3: I don't think so, because you know, I And here's
the other thing with these with these dog men, there's
many people, you know, claiming that they've landed shots, you know,
and like high caliber shots like and yeah, they just
kind of ignore it. And that that that's the part
to me that is weird. It's like, you know, I
don't know what could be so so incredibly strong and
powerful that, you know, a piece of metal about the
size of a nickel ripping through your body? Right, yeah?
Just I mean they bowl holes.
Speaker 5: You know, big hole or small hole in the front,
big hole in the back.
Speaker 3: Right, what could just shrug that off? You know? I
mean really, But that's the reports is that most time
people claim that I shot several rounds into it. It
didn't even WinCE, It didn't even slow it down, it
didn't even alter its course. It was just boom. And
Linda Godfrey shared that with us as well, that you know,
people have told her that they've shot it and had
absolutely no effect. They can't even see blood, right, you know,
So what are these things?
Speaker 5: Who knows?
Speaker 3: You know? You know, I don't know either. You know,
I think it's absolutely crazy, but you know it's it's
fascinating and it's you know, it's part of our part
of our world. You know. Again, I can't vouch for
the reality that these things are for sure out there,
but I I I default to the idea that when
you have anything is possible, and when you have thousands
of witnesses coming forward saying I saw this thing, then
can they all be wrong? Can they all be wrong? Now?
Some of them are perhaps seeing something else and it's
just misidentification. Others perhaps they're under the influence of something
you know, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But you know, again,
if I go to my one percent rule, it's the
same rule I use when I read stories and stuff.
If one percent of what I share on this show
is real, outside of my own encounters and outside of
your guys' own encounters, If one percent of that is real,
that is still in incredibly freaking profound, right, and that
that demonstrates something really amazing going on around us. So
this is just our world, brother, Yeah, no doubt, no doubt.
So I don't know. I think it's pretty amazing. Did
you have anything more that you wanted to share?
Speaker 5: As far as you know? Do you have this one
other one? It's kind of a it's because it's got
a video attached to it, so it's just kind of
an outline of it. But I can tell you where
I got it. Let's see here. This is the Daily
Star CEO at dot co dot uk. It says half man,
half dog man man left terrified by encounter with six
foot mystery beast in woods. Terrifying footage has emerged merged
of a moment a man came face to face with
an animal he described as a half man, half dog.
He was probing the woods of Tennessee when he felt
something was watching him. Frightened and unsure what it could
be he pulled out his phone to record. It's always
the shaky phone camera. The clip shows a moment, the
moment an unknown animal raised up on its back legs,
standing at around six foot five. The man says he
uploaded the clip alongside with an explanation to YouTube on
the sixteenth of July, where it's now racked up eight
thousand hits. Wow, let's get some of those, he claims.
He claims the sighting was of the mythical animal called
a dog man. The folklore legend is described as a
seven foot blue eye or amber eyed canine like animal
with the torso of a man. So we already know this.
And then he goes into the first alleged account and
he says, this is someone says this is really amazing
and best footage a dog man. Yet, let's see here.
It just goes on to quote a few other little,
you know things, But there you go. So another you
know I find interesting is I didn't I guess I
didn't realize that dog man could be blue eyed.
Speaker 3: Oh, actually, that's funny because I just there's another thing
that I want to mention here, and it says, back
in nineteen thirty eight, a seventeen year old named Robert
Fortney claimed that while standing near the Muskegon River in Paris, Michigan,
he was confronted by a massive black dog. Fortney didn't
report his encounter until forty nine years later, but he
swore the beast reared up on its hind legs and
stared down, stared him down with piercing blue eyes.
Speaker 8: Wow.
Speaker 3: Okay. Terrified, he shot at the creature and it quickly fled.
Fortney remained chilled by the event for years to come, however,
later stating, it may be that I was just scared,
but I swear that dog was smiling at me.
Speaker 5: Woo, you know, dog smiling just in general or creepy enough,
But dogs with blue eyes that you know, huskies have
blue eyes right there are other and then you got
the dogs with the chromatic neurochromatic eye thing where they
have to different colors and one is sometimes blue, one
is sometimes dark yep. So you know, but I guess
I never really ever even considered them having anything other
than amber or dark eyes.
Speaker 3: Well apparently they are little nannies too, you know, they
act in people's best interest, because I got a little
anecdote here that says. One particular memorable dog Man account
came from a thirteen year old girl named Courtney who
lived in Reed City, Michigan, back in nineteen ninety three.
She decided to sneak out for a cigarette behind her
family's house one winter. She's thirty and well, that's why
she was sneaking, I'm sure, And she got the scare
of her life. She claimed that a glint of light
seeping out from the planks of an old abandoned farm
that got her attention, or old abandoned barn rather, and
she followed its movement, and slowly it dawned on her
that something was there. She realized the six foot tall
thing hiding in the barn had the head of a
dog and was staring right at her. She ran off terrified. Later,
her neighbor confirmed that they too saw a creature out
in that barn. They described it as a buffalo sized
dog lurking in the barn. Good God, so, and I
think it said hurry, don't smoke. Only that's right, Danny
dog Man says, man don't smoke. Jeg.
Speaker 5: That would be my cousin.
Speaker 3: Danny dog Man. That's my news, My Danny dog Man
