00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,519
Speaker 1: My name is Daniel. I'm an Englishman living in Bordeaux,

2
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,359
France for the last twenty two years. In March of

3
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,920
twenty fourteen, I flew to America to receive prophetic counseling

4
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,120
in cored Aileen, Idaho. I think i'll pronounce that right,

5
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:28,760
cor Couer d Aileen cord Deleen court queer d Alleen.

6
00:00:29,559 --> 00:00:32,280
I don't know how to say it. I decided to

7
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:35,240
check out this place on YouTube before leaving, and I

8
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,600
was surprised to see videos of si squatch sightings in

9
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,719
the margin. Since I was an infant, I've always been

10
00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:46,759
fearful of all things paranormal, and I became fearful of

11
00:00:46,799 --> 00:00:50,640
seeing a sisquatch while I was in Idaho. I'm thankful

12
00:00:50,679 --> 00:00:54,520
that I did not see one. I enjoyed the beauty

13
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,200
of the area and the kindness of its people for

14
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,399
the two weeks duration of my stay. It was a

15
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,319
very pleasant memory. I then flew to Los Angeles for

16
00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:07,079
two weeks to meet a friend from Facebook whom I

17
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,400
had never met in the flesh. I couldn't stay in

18
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,319
her house as there was no room, so I asked

19
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,439
a lady who I had met in Bordeaux several months earlier,

20
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,040
who lived not far away, if I could stay at

21
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:24,000
her place. The lady lives in Santa Clarita, a small

22
00:01:24,079 --> 00:01:29,000
commune about forty five minutes from Los Angeles. I slept

23
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,480
in the guest bedroom adjacent to the garage. Behind the house.

24
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,120
Nearby is a golf course and, if I recall correctly,

25
00:01:37,239 --> 00:01:40,799
a small field. I didn't see much in the way

26
00:01:40,799 --> 00:01:44,799
of forest. One night, I think it was the seventeenth

27
00:01:44,879 --> 00:01:48,840
or eighteenth of March. In my sleep, I suddenly found

28
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,000
myself in the garage in the darkness. Just a few

29
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,760
feet in front of me stood what I instantly knew

30
00:01:55,799 --> 00:01:59,400
to be a sy squatch. It was between seven and

31
00:01:59,519 --> 00:02:05,319
eight tall. I was petrified. He let out something verbal.

32
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,800
It wasn't a full blown roar. It was kind of

33
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,759
a mix between a roar and a warble. I don't

34
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,919
know what it yelled to me, and I received no

35
00:02:15,039 --> 00:02:17,759
translation in my mind, but it seemed to be some

36
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,680
kind of a warning. Again, I was petrified, and I

37
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:27,840
yelled back what I had just heard, my best sisquatch warble. Instantly,

38
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:31,840
I found myself back in my room, sweating and trembling.

39
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,039
I woke up and I turned the light on and

40
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,520
there was nothing there. I don't recall if I opened

41
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,639
the door immediately and saw there was nothing in the garage,

42
00:02:42,039 --> 00:02:45,960
or if I waited until the morning. Scratching my head.

43
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:48,960
I put it down in my mind as playing tricks

44
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,080
on me due to my fears. Two days later, I

45
00:02:53,159 --> 00:02:56,199
was in the kitchen with my host talking and she said,

46
00:02:56,199 --> 00:02:58,879
a couple of nights ago, I heard this strange creature

47
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,479
outside my house. My mind instantly clicked and I realized

48
00:03:03,479 --> 00:03:07,319
that I needed to verify this. Did it sound like this?

49
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,360
I asked, and gave off my best squatch roar warble.

50
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,120
She looked at me with a kind of a how

51
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,120
did you know? In her eyes and said, yes, just

52
00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:22,479
outside her bedroom window is a field. She had literally

53
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,639
heard a sound coming from a flesh and blood creature,

54
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,560
while I heard it only in spirit. The memory of

55
00:03:29,599 --> 00:03:32,360
what happened is in some ways vague and hazy, and

56
00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:36,280
in some ways remains etched in my mind. It is

57
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,879
clear to me that I had a spiritual experience rather

58
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,719
than a flesh and blood experience, so I've never relived

59
00:03:43,719 --> 00:03:47,719
the fear that I experienced that night. As with many

60
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,280
sisquatch encounters, it leaves more questions that answers. Did God

61
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:57,199
allow this experience to reveal the truth of the existence

62
00:03:57,319 --> 00:04:01,719
of sisquatch? I don't know. Did dark forces send this

63
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,479
thing to harm me and God protected me from it?

64
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,400
I don't know that either. Who transported us both into

65
00:04:08,479 --> 00:04:12,919
the garage, God, the devil or the Sasquatch? I don't know,

66
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,480
but it is clear to me from the experience that

67
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:22,839
sisquatch are a paranormal phenomenon and that they are interdimensional beings.

68
00:04:23,959 --> 00:04:28,000
Shortly after, I drove to Sequoia National Park and then

69
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,240
onto Yosemite National Park. Arriving at the entrance to Yosemite,

70
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,120
I casually asked the lady park ranger who I was

71
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,920
buying my ticket from, do you have any Sasquatch here?

72
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,040
She said, I do believe we have a couple here.

73
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,120
As a matter of Factly, I was on my own

74
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,000
and went about tree knocking, but I heard and saw nothing.

75
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,399
I had not heard of David Plaudus then and had

76
00:04:52,439 --> 00:04:57,160
no idea so many people go missing in Yosemite. I

77
00:04:57,199 --> 00:05:01,879
guess I must have received divine protection. Again. Back in France,

78
00:05:01,959 --> 00:05:05,920
I joined the Bigfoot UK Facebook page and I recounted

79
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,480
my story. Most of the people claimed that I had

80
00:05:09,519 --> 00:05:14,120
simply had a dream. Others insisted that the sasquatch are

81
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,759
only flesh and blood, so I left the group. I

82
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,240
was surprised by some of the nasty ways in which

83
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:26,800
people responded, Oh, brother, you have no idea. You really

84
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,519
have no idea until you start a YouTube channel. But

85
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,480
I digress. A close study of scripture reveals that many

86
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,319
other things can happen during the night season besides dreams.

87
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,319
I did have one interesting conversation though, with a nice

88
00:05:42,319 --> 00:05:45,800
young lady from the UK who knows someone who regularly

89
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,680
visits with sisquatch in a UK forest. The lady claimed

90
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:55,160
there are seven species of sisquatch. I do not doubt

91
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,759
that sisquatch are a form of the nephilum according to

92
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:04,079
Genesis six, and are connected to other paranormal nephilin phenomenon.

93
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,560
It would seem that depending on the species sasquatch or

94
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:14,240
everything from human friendly to man eating, Some seem more earthbound,

95
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:19,720
while others are mostly other dimensional, occasionally visiting Earth. It

96
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,279
seems that sisquatch, like humans, can be cursed and find

97
00:06:23,319 --> 00:06:28,120
themselves run over by trucks or shot. These are just

98
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,360
my thoughts and observations aside from my own brief experience.

99
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,240
Thanks for reading my story, Dixie, I certainly appreciate it.

100
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,680
Yours sincerely, Daniel Verdeaux, France. Daniel, you hit the nail

101
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:44,079
on the head, brother, You got in a Facebook group.

102
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,920
That's your first big mistake. You can't tell people the truth.

103
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,480
And you would think you would think you could. You

104
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,879
would think, Okay, well, I'm going to join a bigfoot

105
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,720
group online and I'll be able to discuss my encounter

106
00:06:56,959 --> 00:07:01,079
and get some good, positive, constructive feedback. But no, brother,

107
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,720
I'm telling you that's not possible. It's not possible because

108
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:09,319
everybody's an expert on sosquatch. But I really appreciated this story,

109
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,240
and I've even said on this channel that I can't

110
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,519
I can't make it jib in my mind that these

111
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,920
things are paranormal because the only basis for anything in

112
00:07:19,959 --> 00:07:25,360
my life is it's based on what I can see, feel, smell, hear,

113
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,959
all the normal senses that a person uses. Something that

114
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,399
is paranormal, that's big and Harry in the Woods just

115
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,920
does not jib in my head. But that does not

116
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:40,399
mean it's not real. I just can't see it, and

117
00:07:40,439 --> 00:07:44,000
so don't everybody start commenting that I'm ruling that out.

118
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:47,160
I'm not. It just doesn't make sense. It makes more

119
00:07:47,199 --> 00:07:49,720
sense to me that they would be flesh and blood.

120
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,240
But I would never get on a Facebook group or

121
00:07:53,279 --> 00:07:57,319
in the comment section or whatever and belittle someone for

122
00:07:57,439 --> 00:08:00,319
believing or saying. I mean, they're telling you they had

123
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:04,600
this experience. It's no different than someone saying they saw

124
00:08:04,639 --> 00:08:07,160
a bigfoot run across the road in front of their car.

125
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,199
This guy saw it in a supernatural way. The other

126
00:08:10,279 --> 00:08:12,639
person may have seen it in a supernatural way, and

127
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,639
it just appeared to be real. Anyway, it just gave

128
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,040
me a chance to kind of rib on the buttholes

129
00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:23,040
out there who just hammer everybody. Look, the biggest enemy

130
00:08:23,399 --> 00:08:28,040
the bigfoot community has is not the federal government. It's

131
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,600
the Bigfoot community itself. That's the worst enemy of this

132
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,960
whole topic. I'm just glad I'm off here just in

133
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,879
my little corner telling stories. That's all I do. I

134
00:08:38,879 --> 00:08:42,000
don't get into that research stuff. I don't you know.

135
00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:45,080
I told you about the Beast Facebook page where they've

136
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,480
got videos from lb Elvis past weekend. They've got perfect

137
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,759
tracks in the mud from water. That's that's been drawn

138
00:08:53,799 --> 00:08:57,720
down on the Tennessee River at Lake Barkley, and they've

139
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,360
got these perfect tracks and you can see. I'm on

140
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,720
their Facebook page. I talked about the video that Bob

141
00:09:04,759 --> 00:09:08,759
Gimmelin showed into just a just a video he uploaded

142
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,360
just less than a week ago, and all of his

143
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,679
commentary on that. And I know there are people that

144
00:09:14,759 --> 00:09:17,639
are gonna just squash all that stuff. They're gonna say

145
00:09:17,639 --> 00:09:19,759
the footprints are a hoax, and they're gonna say that

146
00:09:19,759 --> 00:09:21,759
that so and so is a hoax. But they're gonna

147
00:09:21,799 --> 00:09:26,879
consider themselves in the Bigfoot community. Okay, I'm ranting. I'm sorry.

148
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,480
I shouldn't rant, but it just drives me nuts. It

149
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,759
drives me nuts. And again that's why I'm just happy

150
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:35,600
off here in my little corner telling stories. Here, we

151
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,600
all are off at our little corner. They're weird and wonderful,

152
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,960
just enjoying these stories. And that's where I'm gonna stay.

153
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,320
That's where I'm gonna stay. All right, enough of that,

154
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,279
here's an email from Robert I got some time back.

155
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:53,879
It's a little different. It's not even a Bigfoot story,

156
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,279
but it's a scary story and it's about a cryptid

157
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,399
and it's got a twist to it that I think

158
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:04,559
will make you scratch your head. So let's get into

159
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,720
it here. Robert writes. I was raised on a twelve

160
00:10:07,759 --> 00:10:10,960
hundred and fifty acre farm on an island off the

161
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:15,399
coast of South Carolina. The farm had six hundred acres

162
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,840
of cleared land which we farmed, and the rest was

163
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,120
forested with a large swamp that ran through it. When

164
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,120
I wasn't working on the farm, which to a young boy,

165
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,440
seemed like all the time, I would spend as much

166
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,399
time as possible hunting in the swamp. I hunted everything

167
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,440
in season. My dad taught me at a young age

168
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,799
how to hunt safely, and to take care of my

169
00:10:38,879 --> 00:10:42,360
guns and how to shoot. One time, he gave me

170
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,120
three shotgun shells and he told me that he wanted

171
00:10:45,159 --> 00:10:49,360
some squirrels to eat. I remember thinking three squirrels wasn't

172
00:10:49,399 --> 00:10:52,080
a lot. As I headed out the door, and he said,

173
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,879
I want five nice ones. I looked at my mother

174
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,159
and she whispered back, catch them together in the trees.

175
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,159
My dad was one who didn't believe in wasting anything.

176
00:11:03,399 --> 00:11:07,000
Why waste five shots when three would work. These type

177
00:11:07,039 --> 00:11:11,639
of challenges made me an excellent shot. I loved shooting

178
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:14,360
and became an excellent shot. As a matter of fact,

179
00:11:14,519 --> 00:11:17,480
my dad would often get bets going with people that

180
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,159
were new to our hunt club to challenge me. Whether

181
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,840
it was with a shotgun, a rifle, or a pistol,

182
00:11:24,039 --> 00:11:27,399
I always won. It made me proud the way my

183
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:32,000
dad would brag about my shooting skills. In the fall

184
00:11:32,039 --> 00:11:36,279
of nineteen sixty six, I was sixteen years old. My mother,

185
00:11:36,519 --> 00:11:39,440
my older brother, and my older sister, and I were

186
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,279
playing a board game in the kitchen. I believe it

187
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,360
was Monopoly. My dad was at my uncle's house helping

188
00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:49,720
him work on a tractor. It was already dark outside,

189
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,120
but the moon was bright enough that you could still

190
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,159
see pretty well. On dark nights, I like to lie

191
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,279
back on the hood of the old pickup truck and

192
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,960
look up at the stars. The night sky was so beautiful,

193
00:12:02,159 --> 00:12:05,559
so full of stars, that the sky almost looked white

194
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,360
stars that today are drowned out by light pollution. Since

195
00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:13,200
there was a full moon that night, I stayed inside

196
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,519
and I played the game with the rest of the family.

197
00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:18,480
I wasn't very good at board games, and I lost

198
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,399
most of the time. I guess that's why my mother

199
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,519
didn't mind me looking at the stars on game nights.

200
00:12:26,039 --> 00:12:29,960
That night, our dogs started barking outside. We had a

201
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,360
shepherd at the time, and he stayed inside almost all

202
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,440
the time, and he was growling and looking at the door,

203
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,440
and his hackles were up. I remember saying, it's probably

204
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,240
that possum trying to get at the chickens. Again. My

205
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,600
mother told me to take the gun out and get

206
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,320
rid of this thing. So I grabbed up my twenty

207
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,840
two rifle, my spotlight, and I headed out the door.

208
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,080
Rex was at the door when I got there, and

209
00:12:56,159 --> 00:12:58,559
I thought that he would find the possum real quick,

210
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,440
so I'll let him come out with me. Rex could

211
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,200
dispense of it fast and I could sneak a cigarette.

212
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,879
Rex ran out the door onto the porch, but he

213
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,200
stopped at the top step. I thought he was waiting

214
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,720
on me, so I stepped past him. Come on, boy,

215
00:13:13,799 --> 00:13:16,840
I said, as I stepped off the porch. Rex just

216
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:21,200
stood there, staring into the field. Back then, we didn't

217
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,000
have any problems with codies on the island, but there

218
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,440
were plenty of bobcats, fox raccoons and other small predators

219
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,440
that would occasionally get into the chickens. At times, we

220
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,200
would hear what sounded like a woman screaming in the

221
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,399
woods down by the swamp, but my dad said that

222
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,480
it was probably just a bobcat. There was the occasional

223
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,600
sighting of a black panther by some of the island folk,

224
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,039
and that included myself and my dad, but the game

225
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,320
wardens said that there weren't ever any panthers on that island.

226
00:13:52,799 --> 00:13:56,960
Yeah right. I shined the light out across the field

227
00:13:57,039 --> 00:14:00,639
and I didn't see anything. Our front porch based out

228
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,279
across a fifteen acre field where we often saw deer

229
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,720
in the evenings and early mornings. My mother forbid us

230
00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:10,000
to hunt those deer while they were in the yard.

231
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,919
The driveway stopped at the side of the house and

232
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,679
was about one hundred and fifty yards long before it

233
00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:19,639
entered the woods, and another one hundred yards or so

234
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,240
before it came out at the highway. Rex had turned

235
00:14:23,279 --> 00:14:26,200
around and he was at the door, whining, wanning back in,

236
00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:28,759
and he would not leave the porch no matter how

237
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,480
much I called him. This caused a chill to run

238
00:14:32,519 --> 00:14:36,039
down my back. I shined the light around again and

239
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,799
still saw nothing. Rex could see or sense something that

240
00:14:39,919 --> 00:14:43,639
I couldn't I did know that. I asked my brother

241
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,799
to come out with me. I went back in for

242
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,240
my pistol and a different rifle. As I walked back

243
00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:51,720
through the kitchen, my brother said, damn, there must be

244
00:14:51,759 --> 00:14:54,919
a big possum to need that big rifle. I told

245
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,039
him what had happened, and my brother said, I'll come

246
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,360
with you. My brother was an excellent shot as well.

247
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,360
I felt relieved. As we walked out the door, my

248
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,919
mother said, you boys, be careful. My brother tried to

249
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,519
get Rex to follow me, but he was cowering under

250
00:15:10,559 --> 00:15:14,200
the kitchen table and he would not move. My brother

251
00:15:14,279 --> 00:15:17,159
had his thirty six and a three point fifty seven

252
00:15:17,279 --> 00:15:21,519
magnum and a spotlight. When we went out, the chickens

253
00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:24,600
were quiet and nothing was bothering them, so we figured

254
00:15:24,639 --> 00:15:28,840
the problem wasn't there. The outside dogs were still barking

255
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,840
like crazy now, so we walked around the house towards

256
00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:35,480
the driveway. My mother and sister walked out onto the

257
00:15:35,519 --> 00:15:38,120
porch to see what was going on, and it was

258
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,399
then that my brother said, oh, hell, do you see that?

259
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,600
Out across the yard by the driveway, close to the woods,

260
00:15:46,879 --> 00:15:51,840
were three large black panthers. Two of them were very

261
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,639
large and the other a bit smaller than the rest.

262
00:15:55,399 --> 00:15:57,960
My sister and my mother walked around the side of

263
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,679
the porch by this time, and we're all so seeing

264
00:16:00,759 --> 00:16:04,360
the same thing. My sister said to me, hand me

265
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,240
your light and I'll keep it on them so you

266
00:16:06,279 --> 00:16:09,440
can get a shot. I handed her my light. She

267
00:16:09,559 --> 00:16:12,080
rested it on the porch rail to keep it steady.

268
00:16:12,679 --> 00:16:16,200
My mother did the same for my brother. My brother

269
00:16:16,279 --> 00:16:18,360
took the one on the left, and I chose the

270
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,919
big one in the middle. My brother said on three,

271
00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:27,679
and my sister slowly counted down one, two, three, and

272
00:16:27,799 --> 00:16:31,960
both rifles fired at the same time. My mother said

273
00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:34,679
she could see both of the large cats get hit.

274
00:16:35,279 --> 00:16:38,559
The one my brother shot collapsed on the ground and

275
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,519
the one I shot flipped over backwards and fell to

276
00:16:41,559 --> 00:16:45,840
the ground too. Our eyes were adjusting from the flash

277
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,720
of the rifle, and everything was real quiet, and like

278
00:16:49,799 --> 00:16:54,080
someone had turned a switch. Both spotlights went out at

279
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,639
the same time, along with every light in the house.

280
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,279
We lost all power to our house. We all ran

281
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:06,640
back inside the house. Once inside, my mother shut and

282
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,799
locked the doors. My sister lit an oil lantern that

283
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:14,160
we had for power outages. It was totally silent outside.

284
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,039
The outside dogs were quiet now, and after about five

285
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,680
minutes the lights all came back on, and that included

286
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,559
the two spotlights that were laying on the coffee table.

287
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,559
Now we just stood there and looked at each other.

288
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,119
My mother walked out the living room towards the bedroom,

289
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,599
and she said for everyone to go to the kitchen

290
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,640
table and to turn those two lights off, pointing at

291
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,960
the spotlights. A few minutes later, she walked into the

292
00:17:42,039 --> 00:17:45,160
kitchen with an oil lantern still lit, placing it in

293
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,880
the middle of the table. She sat down and she

294
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,400
started reading from the Bible in Psalms. No one said

295
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,000
a word. We just sat there and we listened to

296
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,839
her read. We stayed up all night listening to her read.

297
00:17:59,519 --> 00:18:01,559
Once it was it was light enough to see well

298
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,400
enough outside, my mother blew out the lantern. My brother

299
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,960
and I grabbed a couple of shotguns and we filled

300
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:13,000
our pockets with buckshot and we walked outside. This time,

301
00:18:13,079 --> 00:18:16,519
Rex followed us out. He didn't seem afraid like he was,

302
00:18:16,599 --> 00:18:20,079
which helped soothe us a little bit. We rounded the

303
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,079
corner of the porch and started up the driveway. Towards

304
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,559
the area we had seen the large cats. My mother

305
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:29,240
and sister on the porch were watching, and my sister

306
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:34,240
holding my mother's bible in her hands. After fifty yards

307
00:18:34,319 --> 00:18:36,839
of walking or so, my brother and I stopped and

308
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,519
looked at each other. Where were the cats? We both

309
00:18:40,599 --> 00:18:43,279
hit our targets last night. There was no way that

310
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,759
we missed, not both of us. But there was nothing

311
00:18:46,839 --> 00:18:50,000
on the ground. My brother said maybe the small one

312
00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:53,519
dragged him into the woods. So with shotguns at the ready,

313
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,960
we walked to the spot where the cats had been.

314
00:18:56,599 --> 00:18:59,839
The ground was torn up with scratches all over the ground,

315
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,480
but there was no blood. Thirty yards away was the

316
00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:06,400
open field that I had cut with a disk the

317
00:19:06,519 --> 00:19:10,440
day before. In that field, we saw three sets of

318
00:19:10,519 --> 00:19:13,839
large cat prints walking across towards the back end of

319
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,680
the field. The prints at first seemed to be dragging something,

320
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,839
and then they all cleared up and everything became normal.

321
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,920
The scariest part to us was the tracks went maybe

322
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,119
forty or fifty feet or so into the field and

323
00:19:28,319 --> 00:19:33,200
just stopped. There was no backtracking, no forward, no sideways,

324
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:37,079
no nothing. They just ended like the cats had vanished,

325
00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:42,079
fresh plowed ground and no tracks was all we could see.

326
00:19:42,079 --> 00:19:45,279
My dad came home that morning around ten am. He

327
00:19:45,319 --> 00:19:48,160
and my uncle had worked all night fixing that tractor.

328
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,359
We told him what had happened, and he asked which

329
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,240
way the cats had headed. I told him back towards

330
00:19:54,319 --> 00:19:56,759
the big oaks in the corner, but the tracks stop

331
00:19:56,839 --> 00:19:59,960
way short of getting there. He said that when his

332
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,920
his dad, my granddad, had bought this farm when he

333
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,680
was a young man, he was told there was an

334
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,759
old graveyard in that area with about three hundred slaves

335
00:20:09,799 --> 00:20:13,759
buried there under those oaks. He said that he was

336
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:17,559
told they had all died from malaria, and over the years,

337
00:20:17,599 --> 00:20:21,039
strange things had happened in that area, and that those

338
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,079
cats had been seen before by that family. Over the years,

339
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,160
several years went by before anyone ever saw those cats again,

340
00:20:31,079 --> 00:20:34,119
just like before they showed up the first time, you

341
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,200
could hear what sounded like a woman screaming down in

342
00:20:37,279 --> 00:20:41,480
the swamp. We saw that far many years ago, and

343
00:20:41,519 --> 00:20:44,960
I miss it dearly for many reasons. All of the

344
00:20:45,039 --> 00:20:48,079
family that were there that night have all passed away now,

345
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,440
so there's no one left to be worried about what

346
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,599
people would say about this story. There's only me left,

347
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,039
and I'm now sixty eight years old. I'm married, and

348
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,079
I even have great grandkids. I love to listen to

349
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,279
the stories that you tell, and I enjoy them very much.

350
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,079
They bring back memories of days gone by. There are

351
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,000
people that listen to these stories that may say this

352
00:21:12,079 --> 00:21:14,440
is a bunch of bull, but those of us who

353
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,839
have lived those stories, we know better. Keep up the

354
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,440
good work, brother, and maybe next time I get the chance,

355
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,079
I'll tell you some of the other strange things from

356
00:21:23,079 --> 00:21:27,279
that old farm. God bless sign. Robert, Oh, Robert. I've

357
00:21:27,319 --> 00:21:29,880
loved some more of those stories. But you know this

358
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,400
is namely a bigfoot channel now, but this was so

359
00:21:32,559 --> 00:21:36,119
good I had to share that with y'all. And I

360
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,960
don't know what the deal is with these big cats.

361
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:44,440
I've heard them. I remember years ago being in we

362
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,680
had duck hunted all day long. We were tired and

363
00:21:47,759 --> 00:21:51,359
it was dark and my boys and I and some

364
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,200
other guys we hunted with. We had stopped in this

365
00:21:54,279 --> 00:21:57,839
little store in Cash, Arkansas, and we were just getting

366
00:21:57,839 --> 00:22:01,119
some blooney sandwiches and stuff and about head home. And

367
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,079
there was an old man in there and he was

368
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,960
going on and on about this old this big old

369
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,799
black cat that he had seen cross a ditch. Now

370
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,119
northeast Arkansas is not real wooded. Most of the woods

371
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,599
have been cut down and it's like a flat as

372
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,440
a pancake delta. There's little patches of woods here and there.

373
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,480
But he swore he saw a big black panther cross

374
00:22:23,519 --> 00:22:26,359
a ditch and go into a little patch of trees.

375
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,319
There was another guy, I think it was his son

376
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,279
in there, and he was that wasn't no damn panther.

377
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,240
That was my black lab. He had gotten out and

378
00:22:35,279 --> 00:22:37,680
he was running, running those ditches and he went up

379
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,359
in those woods. But this old man just stuck with

380
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,480
his story and he said, I saw that black cat.

381
00:22:42,519 --> 00:22:44,839
I know what it was. He was like looking at us, going,

382
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,839
y'all believe me, don't you. We were like, oh yeah, sure,

383
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,839
sure we do. We just wanted our blowny sandwiches and

384
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,680
to get home. But I don't know what the deal

385
00:22:52,759 --> 00:22:55,039
is with these black cats. I hear these stories all

386
00:22:55,079 --> 00:22:58,160
the time, you know. And I said in a previous

387
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,039
video that I know guys who are getting catching images

388
00:23:02,079 --> 00:23:04,359
of them on trail camps. They are not black. They

389
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,920
look like mountain lions in the out West, but apparently

390
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,759
they're here. I don't know about the black Ones. But anyway,

391
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,440
I'm just babbling on and let's go ahead and end

392
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,559
this up. Robert, this is a great story. It took

393
00:23:16,559 --> 00:23:18,359
about a year for me to get to this. I

394
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,160
hope you, hope you listen in. I'll send you an email.

395
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,279
Make sure you know it's in this it's in this

396
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,559
video or Robert, is a great story. I really appreciate you.

397
00:23:30,279 --> 00:23:32,960
Here's an email from Bobby and here's what he says.

398
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,640
I live in North Carolina in Anson County. I didn't

399
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,039
grow up here. I grew up in an adjacent county.

400
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,599
I've lived here for thirty five years, on my land

401
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,359
that my grandfather left me from his estate. It has

402
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,359
a pond and many acres of woods on it. My

403
00:23:51,519 --> 00:23:54,119
track is in the middle of seven tracks that are

404
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:58,480
owned by other family members, and they're primarily wooded areas.

405
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,480
Now fifty six years old, so nothing has ever surprised me,

406
00:24:03,839 --> 00:24:08,720
well until now. I've always let my chickens range out

407
00:24:08,799 --> 00:24:12,680
during the day to forage. In the evening before sunset,

408
00:24:12,759 --> 00:24:15,160
they would always return to their pen and I would

409
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,759
shut them up at night. So the coyotes wouldn't get

410
00:24:17,799 --> 00:24:21,279
them well, they stopped going back into their pin in

411
00:24:21,319 --> 00:24:26,000
September of twenty and nineteen. I could catch them and

412
00:24:26,079 --> 00:24:28,680
put them up, but they would fly back out, so

413
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,039
they could sit on the ground right beside the dog

414
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,960
kennel with two of my dogs, about fifty feet from

415
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,599
their house. This was odd to me because I thought

416
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,200
they would be safer from the coyotes in their pin.

417
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,680
But I got tired of catching them for nothing, so

418
00:24:43,799 --> 00:24:47,480
I just left them out. I had also noticed that

419
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,400
the coyotes had ceased calling out at night, or even

420
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,000
maybe they had left the area. They were a permanent

421
00:24:54,079 --> 00:24:57,799
fixture here for years, and with the coyotes gone, I

422
00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:01,960
figured the chickens would be safe saf outside overnight. After all,

423
00:25:02,519 --> 00:25:05,039
I did keep a dog beside the chicken pen so

424
00:25:05,079 --> 00:25:08,079
he could guard the chickens and keep the wildlife away.

425
00:25:09,319 --> 00:25:11,720
This pen was one hundred feet from our house and

426
00:25:11,799 --> 00:25:16,240
surrounded by trees. My dog there was constantly running back

427
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,559
and forth at night, barking non stop. We thought it

428
00:25:20,599 --> 00:25:23,839
was deer since there are so many around here, so

429
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:28,160
we weren't concerned about us barking. About the same time

430
00:25:28,279 --> 00:25:31,759
that the chickens started their routine my wife and I

431
00:25:31,839 --> 00:25:36,880
started smelling decomposition and wet dog. We have a lot

432
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,279
of deer and we live close to the road, so

433
00:25:39,319 --> 00:25:43,079
we attributed the decomposition smell to deer that had been

434
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,319
hit by vehicles and died in the woods near our house.

435
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,960
But we never ever saw a deer carcass. The smell

436
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,519
would come and go over time. This continued until July

437
00:25:55,799 --> 00:25:59,079
of twenty twenty, when I had the experience of hearing

438
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,119
thumping on a tree in the woods behind our greenhouse

439
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,480
while I was cutting wood one day. It was a

440
00:26:05,519 --> 00:26:10,319
pattern of one two three four, one two one two

441
00:26:10,519 --> 00:26:14,519
three in that sequence. Then there was a pause and

442
00:26:14,559 --> 00:26:18,599
the pattern would start again. I felt like I was

443
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,920
being watched too. I would listen to the knox for

444
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,119
a while, and then I decided to answer it myself

445
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:29,319
on the red tip beside the dog kennel. After doing

446
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,359
three sets of these thumps, the sounds from the woods stopped.

447
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,480
I went back to cutting wood. On Sunday, September the

448
00:26:38,519 --> 00:26:41,440
twenty seventh, twenty twenty, I went out to feed the

449
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:44,279
dogs and cats, and I found my dog in the

450
00:26:44,319 --> 00:26:48,200
hog pen dead. I found him exactly where he had

451
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,079
slept in the pin with his neck broken and his

452
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:55,839
head twisted around looking backwards. His eyes were open with

453
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,960
his right front leg dislocated pointing back over his show.

454
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,039
I went back inside our house and I told my

455
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,519
wife what I had found. My wife is a forensic

456
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:13,920
anthropologist with crime scene investigation training, so she was intrigued.

457
00:27:14,799 --> 00:27:17,440
She found the entry point over the barbed wire that

458
00:27:17,599 --> 00:27:22,400
was ripped down, and impressions inside the pen on solid ground.

459
00:27:23,319 --> 00:27:26,480
She even found a footprint just outside the pen that

460
00:27:26,519 --> 00:27:31,279
we took several cell phone pictures of. After our investigation,

461
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,319
we buried my dog and we had a somber day

462
00:27:34,559 --> 00:27:38,759
of disbelief. The next morning, I went out to our

463
00:27:38,839 --> 00:27:42,359
greenhouse to put a water jug in. Again, I had

464
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,200
the feeling that I was being watched. When I exited

465
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,319
the greenhouse, my chickens came running, hoping that I would

466
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,400
give them some cracked corn like I usually did. About

467
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,359
halfway to the corn bend, I heard a grunt behind

468
00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,160
the greenhouse, and then I smelled that terrible odor, and

469
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:05,359
I froze in my tracks. The chickens also froze and

470
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,839
stretched their necks high, looking in the direction of that sound.

471
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,359
They didn't move until I did. I went ahead and

472
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,480
fed them the corn, and I walked back to the

473
00:28:15,559 --> 00:28:19,240
house and sat down in the swing on our patio.

474
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,519
This was unnerving because I know what deer and wild

475
00:28:22,599 --> 00:28:25,680
hogs sound like when they grunt, and this was neither.

476
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,839
That afternoon, I decided to put some lights in the

477
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,279
backyard near the hog pen, because we had no security

478
00:28:33,319 --> 00:28:37,839
lights out there. While installing the lights, I sensed again

479
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,920
that I was being watched and that odor was back.

480
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,240
I install the lights, and the other dogs have stopped

481
00:28:45,319 --> 00:28:48,440
barking towards the woods at night, and everything seems to

482
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,640
have calmed down. Back in the nineteen seventies, I used

483
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,880
to hear horrible screams back in the woods where I hunted.

484
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,480
It always happened when someone was with me. I don't

485
00:28:59,519 --> 00:29:02,160
know this again magnificance of that, but at least there

486
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:06,920
were witnesses. It happened frequently enough that we stopped hunting

487
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,720
that area. Now we hunt closer to the road, and

488
00:29:10,799 --> 00:29:13,680
from the seventies until now, there's been nothing out of

489
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:18,079
the ordinary going on here. And this recent activity with

490
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,240
my chickens and my dog being killed has changed me

491
00:29:21,359 --> 00:29:25,119
in a way that I don't understand. I've never been

492
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,559
afraid of being out in the woods, but I'm a

493
00:29:27,559 --> 00:29:31,599
bit jumpy now. I never work outside without a gun.

494
00:29:33,079 --> 00:29:36,119
I haven't told anyone the latest things that have happened.

495
00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:38,880
I'm waiting to see if anyone else has had a

496
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,880
similar experience. Thanks for your channel and hopefully understanding that

497
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,359
I'm not crazy, Bobby, You're not crazy. You're not crazy

498
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,559
at all. I hear this stuff all the time. I've

499
00:29:50,559 --> 00:29:55,359
never experienced it, but apparently people have these type of

500
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,319
experiences all the time, and I think I've only got

501
00:29:58,359 --> 00:30:03,480
one or two stories up with where Bigfoot was suspected

502
00:30:03,559 --> 00:30:06,839
in killing a dog. That's the part about this story

503
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,079
that breaks my heart because I love dogs, and I

504
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,680
hate the fact that your dog was killed in such

505
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,240
a violent way. Maybe he never felt it sounds like

506
00:30:15,319 --> 00:30:18,200
it was pretty quick. So but I'm sorry about the

507
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,000
loss of your dog, and it sounds like you got

508
00:30:20,039 --> 00:30:23,079
bigfoot activity there. I don't know if there's anybody in

509
00:30:23,119 --> 00:30:25,880
your area you can call or know that might be

510
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,000
able to help you, And I don't know if they

511
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,640
could even help you if they knew about it. But

512
00:30:30,759 --> 00:30:34,599
this experience is not uncommon. I mean, people that have

513
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,240
bigfoot on their property I mean, I think these kind

514
00:30:37,319 --> 00:30:40,400
of things happen a lot. I really appreciate you sharing

515
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,720
this with us, Bobby. You did a good job right

516
00:30:42,759 --> 00:30:44,799
in it, and it's very clear we can all see

517
00:30:44,799 --> 00:30:50,039
what's going on. Thanks Buddy,
