1
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: The first time I heard about Bigfoot was when I

2
00:00:12,519 --> 00:00:15,519
took my younger brother and a friend of his to

3
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,920
see the Legend of Boggy Creek. It was playing at

4
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,120
the drive in where we lived. My interest in the

5
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,120
subject was renewed years later when my son and I

6
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,719
started watching the Finding Bigfoot series together. It made me

7
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,719
think back to my childhood living in the country. My

8
00:00:33,799 --> 00:00:36,799
family moved to a small town in southern Indiana when

9
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,679
I was little. I was a bit of a tomboy

10
00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:42,560
and I loved going to the woods by myself just

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,200
to enjoy nature. We had a couple of horses in

12
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,240
the pasture way back in the woods, and I would

13
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,560
sometimes go to pet and hand and feed them, and

14
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,320
on occasion I would suddenly feel afraid, as if someone

15
00:00:55,479 --> 00:00:59,719
or something menacing was watching me. When I gave into

16
00:00:59,759 --> 00:01:02,159
the earths to run home as fast as I could,

17
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,239
I could hear the sounds of twigs snapping behind me.

18
00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:08,840
I thought a bear was coming after me, and at

19
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,159
that age I didn't realize there were no bears in Indiana.

20
00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:16,599
I live in Ohio now, and one evening I was

21
00:01:16,719 --> 00:01:20,079
taking my granddaughter on her ride in the country. She

22
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,239
loves it as much as I do, and we would

23
00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:25,879
point to houses that we like and enjoy each other's company.

24
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,840
She's also a horse lover and love seeing them in

25
00:01:29,879 --> 00:01:33,719
the fields. As we drove, I was driving around, not

26
00:01:33,799 --> 00:01:35,959
even sure where we were at the time. When I

27
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,200
started to turn onto a gravel road with trees lighting

28
00:01:39,239 --> 00:01:42,959
both sides of it. It was right at dark and

29
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,079
the road was dark, and right before I turned, we

30
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,959
saw dark shape in the middle of the road. It

31
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,640
looked like it was an animal, hunched down and it

32
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:56,280
was eating something it had caught. Even at a distance,

33
00:01:56,319 --> 00:01:58,719
we could tell it was huge, but it was too

34
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,840
dark to tell what it was. My granddaughter got scared

35
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,640
and rolled up her window. She closed the sun roof,

36
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,319
and she begged me not to get any closer to it.

37
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,479
I drove on, not knowing what it was and not

38
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,840
wanting to make her more upset than she had already become,

39
00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:19,759
And then, to my surprise, out of nowhere, I got

40
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,159
scared too. It was like a light switch had turned on,

41
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,280
and I felt the familiar feeling of fear that I

42
00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:29,080
had felt as a child in the woods by myself,

43
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:32,400
like something was after me and I had to get

44
00:02:32,439 --> 00:02:35,439
out of there as fast as I could. It took

45
00:02:35,479 --> 00:02:37,759
both of us a while to calm down. And though

46
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,240
I've always wondered what that dark shape was, part of

47
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,400
me is grateful that I never found out. Oh that's spooky.

48
00:02:46,039 --> 00:02:48,199
You don't know what you saw, but you saw something

49
00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:51,520
dark hunched over. Could it have been a bear? Yes,

50
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,680
but you had a good gut feeling about it. I

51
00:02:54,719 --> 00:02:57,400
would trust my gut feeling on it. You think you

52
00:02:57,479 --> 00:03:00,360
know what it is, I'd stay with that and nothing

53
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,520
else that'll keep you alert when you go to the

54
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,240
woods for the rest of your life. This was a

55
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:11,319
good story. Thank you man for sending it. All right,

56
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,520
all right, thanks for clicking on the video. I have

57
00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:16,639
four I don't know other three to five minute stories,

58
00:03:16,719 --> 00:03:20,280
and then I've got two really good archived stories that

59
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:22,159
will come after that. I think one of them is

60
00:03:22,199 --> 00:03:24,639
almost thirty minutes long, but it's a really good one.

61
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,919
So I hope you all enjoyed this video. Thanks for

62
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:35,360
clicking on the video. All right, here we go. In

63
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,840
twenty nineteen, I was in East Tennessee staying in a camper.

64
00:03:40,759 --> 00:03:43,120
The owner of the property lived in a mobile home

65
00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:46,240
nearby and had dogs chained up in different parts of

66
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:51,120
the yard with doghouses nearby for shelter. On my first

67
00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:53,400
night there, I heard a loud slap at the far

68
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:56,080
end of the camper. It was so loud that it

69
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,319
shook the entire structure, and it felt eerily deliberate, as

70
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:03,240
if something was trying to startle me into the open,

71
00:04:03,639 --> 00:04:05,960
the way a loud noise can scare chickens out of

72
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,439
the coop. A week later, I had been in town

73
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,319
grocery shopping with my neighbors. By the time we got back,

74
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,680
it was dark, and just when I finished putting things up,

75
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,040
I shit you not, I heard a loud and clear

76
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:24,240
whistle outside the door. I thought I might have forgotten

77
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,879
a bag, so I called my neighbors on the phone,

78
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:31,079
but it wasn't them and they hadn't heard anything. Well.

79
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,199
Another week went by, and then at three in the morning,

80
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,959
a growl by the front door woke me up, and

81
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,120
I grabbed my knife and I eased up toward the

82
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,639
door to peek outside, and that thing growled again, this

83
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,519
time near the top of the door. The door was

84
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,680
at least eight feet tall. There was no local animal

85
00:04:48,759 --> 00:04:51,439
I could think of that could stand that tall, and

86
00:04:51,519 --> 00:04:54,800
it startled me so bad that I jumped back. I

87
00:04:54,879 --> 00:04:57,839
mustard a rebel yell as loud as I could, and

88
00:04:57,879 --> 00:05:00,879
I heard it run away from the door on two feet.

89
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,040
I stopped staying in the camper after that. Three weeks later,

90
00:05:06,079 --> 00:05:09,240
the homeowner son came home from the National Guard. He

91
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,240
had been on duty. We were all getting ready for

92
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,639
bed when his girlfriend said she saw eyes shine outside.

93
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,879
I told her it was probably just the lightning bugs.

94
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,160
But I joined her at the window and I looked

95
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:24,680
outside with her. We focused in on a set of

96
00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:28,480
eyes that I thought were lightning bugs, and then they blinked.

97
00:05:29,519 --> 00:05:31,879
It was two sets of eyes standing eight feet tall,

98
00:05:31,959 --> 00:05:36,120
right outside the window, looking in the sun. Grabbed his

99
00:05:36,199 --> 00:05:38,439
gun in flashlight, but as soon as he went out

100
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,399
the door, the eyes disappeared. And that's the end of

101
00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:45,839
that story. And at first I was thinking, who has

102
00:05:45,879 --> 00:05:48,600
a door that's eight feet tall? But if he's in

103
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,519
a camper and it's up on its wheels, it could

104
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,399
be eight nine could be could be taller than eight feet.

105
00:05:55,439 --> 00:05:59,199
I guess this was interesting this guy had. He's in

106
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,560
East Tennessee in his camper. A lot of people have

107
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,680
encounters while they're in their campers out in National parks

108
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,040
and such. This was a good story, man, I appreciate

109
00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:14,639
you sending it. Thank you, sir. Many moons ago on

110
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:20,040
the Glover River in McCurtain County, Oklahoma, my grandparents were

111
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,600
at a fishing spot they called the Big Hole. They

112
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,319
were busy catfishing when they heard a yell from up

113
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,680
the river. For the fun of it, my grandma decided

114
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:34,000
to mimic the sound and she yelled right back. Not

115
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,920
long after, they heard a huge splashing coming up the river,

116
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,000
as if a large animal were coming quickly. As the

117
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,759
splashing sound got closer, they started feeling uneasy and decided

118
00:06:45,759 --> 00:06:49,399
to pack up and leave. My grandmother went ahead to

119
00:06:49,519 --> 00:06:51,600
the truck to start it up so that they could

120
00:06:51,639 --> 00:06:54,519
get out of their faster, and she heard some leaves

121
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,319
rustling in the woods next to her. She rejoined my

122
00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:02,439
grandfather to help with and once they got everything loaded up,

123
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,199
they saw this huge shadow in the trees. They didn't

124
00:07:06,199 --> 00:07:08,120
wait around to find out what it was, and they

125
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,959
got out of dodge. She's told me this story many

126
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,680
times throughout my life, and I've always figured it was Bigfoot,

127
00:07:16,199 --> 00:07:18,560
but I never paid any mind to what the yell

128
00:07:18,759 --> 00:07:22,199
could have been until this weekend when I visited them

129
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,480
and I played the Ohio Howe recording. I had gotten

130
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,600
her attention, and she called my grandfather over so he

131
00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:33,879
could hear it too. My grandparents both said it was

132
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,079
just like the sound they heard that day that they

133
00:07:36,079 --> 00:07:39,800
were fishing at the Big Hole. Little did they know

134
00:07:39,879 --> 00:07:44,000
at the time they had a near encounter with Bigfoot. Oh,

135
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,879
that's awesome that. You know, a lot of people write

136
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:50,439
in and they remember they listened to these stories, or

137
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,639
they watch other channels or whatever. They get some information

138
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,319
on these creatures, and they start remembering back on things

139
00:07:57,319 --> 00:07:59,959
that they've never been able to figure out, and their

140
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,839
able to put two and two together and come up with, Hey,

141
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,560
must have been Bigfoot. It's perfectly logical. I mean, it

142
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,439
could be anything. Why not blame it on Bigfoot. That's

143
00:08:10,519 --> 00:08:12,680
just my take on it. But this was really good,

144
00:08:12,839 --> 00:08:16,079
kind of a spooky story, secondhand story. I thought it

145
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:21,680
was great. Thanks to the writer. All Right, here's a

146
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,959
story that I think is from Australia. My editor says

147
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:31,959
it's about Yaowei's and ghosts. Around twenty seventeen, I was

148
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,159
pregnant with my fourth child. We had been on a

149
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,600
walk going through an unused train tunnel, and I wasn't

150
00:08:38,639 --> 00:08:41,960
feeling too good. My husband went with the two bigger

151
00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:44,000
kids to get the car, and I was holding the

152
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:47,639
youngest in my arms. I had gotten back to the

153
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,039
road and was standing off to the side waiting for

154
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,679
my husband when something made me look up. In the trees.

155
00:08:54,759 --> 00:08:57,879
About two meters from the road was a giant humanoid

156
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,960
creature just standing there watching me. I knew not to

157
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,639
turn my back on it, and I stood there terrified,

158
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:08,240
and I faced it. I was there for five minutes

159
00:09:08,279 --> 00:09:10,720
in a stand off with this thing before I started

160
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,600
moving away, stepping back slowly, all the while watching this

161
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,279
thing watch me. When my husband showed up in the

162
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,600
car had backed up, and it retreated into the trees.

163
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,679
I was hysterical at that point. I loaded my daughter

164
00:09:25,799 --> 00:09:28,039
into her seat and I told my husband there was

165
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,600
something in the trees watching me. I made him slide

166
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,320
over to the passenger seat, and I locked all the

167
00:09:34,399 --> 00:09:36,840
doors and I got us out of there as fast

168
00:09:36,879 --> 00:09:40,679
as the car would go. My husband believed me, and

169
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,840
at every chance he got he told me to share

170
00:09:42,879 --> 00:09:47,679
with others that time that I saw a yowie. All

171
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:52,080
my life, I've had paranormal experiences from shadows turning the

172
00:09:52,159 --> 00:09:55,440
lights on in my room, to doors opening and closing

173
00:09:55,519 --> 00:09:59,919
on their own, the TV turning itself on, and mysterious

174
00:10:00,039 --> 00:10:03,840
footsteps at all hours of the day and night. I've

175
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,919
had visits from the hat man and have even seen

176
00:10:07,039 --> 00:10:10,840
objects thrown through the air, seemingly on their own volition.

177
00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:14,720
One day, my husband was mowing the yard and I

178
00:10:14,799 --> 00:10:17,519
was the only one in the house. I heard someone

179
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,120
walking outside, and I watched my husband go into our bedroom.

180
00:10:22,039 --> 00:10:25,320
I started talking to him, when behind me, my husband

181
00:10:25,399 --> 00:10:28,559
asked who I was talking to. I looked from him

182
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,879
to the bedroom and asked how on earth he had

183
00:10:30,879 --> 00:10:33,559
gotten there. I told him I had just seen him

184
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,360
go in the bedroom, and he promptly searched the house

185
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,879
for an intruder. When we visited family, I did a

186
00:10:40,919 --> 00:10:43,480
final check of the house while my husband loaded the

187
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,360
kids in the car, and as I walked around, I

188
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,200
always felt like someone was there doing the walk around

189
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,320
with me. As soon as I went out the door,

190
00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:55,559
I would feel someone pat my bum as if to say,

191
00:10:55,919 --> 00:10:58,159
it's all good, love, I'll keep an eye on the

192
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:03,000
place for you. My husband and I love historical tours.

193
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,279
One time we visited the grave of a captain who

194
00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:09,399
was involved in a boat sinking in the Brisbane River.

195
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,320
The tour guide told us all about the deaths involved

196
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,559
and how it was the captain's fault. When suddenly I

197
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,679
heard very clearly in my ear again and again a

198
00:11:19,759 --> 00:11:24,559
voice telling me it wasn't my fault. I told my

199
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,919
husband what I had heard, and the tour guide went silent.

200
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,600
I wasn't trying to undermine his tour, but the look

201
00:11:31,639 --> 00:11:35,559
on his face was priceless. Now, I've had many strange

202
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,919
experiences in my life, and I found that sometimes the

203
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,759
best thing to do is to keep the stories to myself.

204
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,799
Even those with the biggest hearts have a hard time relating.

205
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,480
And that's the end of her story. And I would

206
00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:52,600
say that last paragraph. You can keep them to yourself

207
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:54,519
if you won't, or you can send them to us

208
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,639
so that we can all enjoy them. I thought, there's

209
00:11:58,799 --> 00:12:04,080
several incidents in this email, and it's very concisely explained.

210
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,159
She just tells she just deals with the strange events.

211
00:12:08,639 --> 00:12:11,000
And I thought it was great. And if this writer,

212
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,240
I don't know when she sent it, probably send it,

213
00:12:14,279 --> 00:12:17,879
probably a while back. But if you hear this send

214
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,240
us some more. Man, you're a good writer and you

215
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:24,039
really explain your experience as well. Thank you, ma'am for

216
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,039
sending this. I thought it was a great set of stories.

217
00:12:27,159 --> 00:12:31,759
Thanks again, once again, thank you for joining me on

218
00:12:31,799 --> 00:12:35,200
this video in this podcast. I certainly appreciate it and

219
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,480
we will see you guys on the next one. Thanks

220
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:37,879
so much.
