Speaker 1: Take my advice. You have to be very careful. If
Speaker 1: you call out to one of the dead, all of
Speaker 1: them can hear you.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to fans on Friday.
Speaker 3: This is case.
Speaker 2: Number seven and you will be speaking with Heather Mosure.
Speaker 2: I did find her story from the Let's Get Freaky podcast, and.
Speaker 4: It's one hell of a story.
Speaker 2: The following is an account of her true paranormal experiences,
Speaker 2: and without further ado, let's get right into it.
Speaker 4: I've noticed that the older I get and the more
Speaker 4: that I've experienced, it seems like the more tends to happen,
Speaker 4: like a gate was opened or something, so to speak. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but yeah, it's definitely not isolated.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you've actually your self experienced stuff, and then
Speaker 2: you've worked with people or you have friends who have
Speaker 2: had some crazy encounters and I'm hoping you can kind
Speaker 2: of share some of those with the listeners tonight. But
Speaker 2: you're from Ohio.
Speaker 4: Yes, Yes, I live in Minerva, Ohio, which is a
Speaker 4: small town not too far from kant n Acron or Cleveland,
Speaker 4: with an hour and a half probably to get to
Speaker 4: Cleveland from here because of all the back roads.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I am also from the Cleveland area. And
Speaker 2: I tell people every time, even when I got on
Speaker 2: the Let's Get Freaky podcasts, He's never been over here,
Speaker 2: so I kind of had to like describe everything for him.
Speaker 2: But I was like, there's something going on with like Erri.
Speaker 4: It's creepy.
Speaker 2: There's lots of weird stuff going on. And I know
Speaker 2: where you're from. In Minerva, they have something called the
Speaker 2: Minerva Monster.
Speaker 4: Yeah, bigfoot, right, So.
Speaker 2: Just for the listeners, I know that there is a film,
Speaker 2: but can you give the listeners a little bit of
Speaker 2: your background kind of looking into the Minerva Monster.
Speaker 4: So the Minerva Monster is the story about a bigfoot
Speaker 4: that surfaced in the nineteen seventies with the Caton family
Speaker 4: here in Nerva, Ohio. They had repeated visitation from this
Speaker 4: creature and it brought national news. People showed up from
Speaker 4: all over the place to see it to hunt it.
Speaker 4: But it interacted with the family for a prolonged period
Speaker 4: of time, and actually, from what I understand, they still
Speaker 4: have on and off situations that occur at their house
Speaker 4: or in that area because they still live there in
Speaker 4: the same place. But I actually found out it was
Speaker 4: probably two or three years ago. Now. I went to
Speaker 4: a family reunion and a distant cousin. I saw that
Speaker 4: I had a small town monster's shirt on and it
Speaker 4: said something to me about, oh I love small town monsters.
Speaker 4: I like, and I'm like, did you see a nerval monster?
Speaker 4: And he's like, my family lived the minerval monster. I
Speaker 4: my mom was a caton And I'm like, wait, what
Speaker 4: your mom was a caton? So through marriage, I'm related
Speaker 4: to the catens. But it's through a few like it's
Speaker 4: it's kind of it's distant, but I'm related to that.
Speaker 4: I thought.
Speaker 2: It's so it's guilt by association at that point. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I was like, I got to come over
Speaker 4: and see the place sometime. And we keep talking about it.
Speaker 4: I text my cousin every couple months just to check
Speaker 4: in on him and see how he's doing. And we
Speaker 4: keep saying that, you know, I mean, we don't live
Speaker 4: that far apart, that we'll get together sometime, but life
Speaker 4: has not allowed that yet.
Speaker 2: Oh you got a document it, yeah too. So you
Speaker 2: worked actually while they were making this film, you worked
Speaker 2: with them, and I'm pretty sure that you said you
Speaker 2: had experiences while you were filming.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I wasn't working with small town Monsters when
Speaker 4: they made Minerva Monster because they made that that was
Speaker 4: the first their first film, which there were only like
Speaker 4: three people involved in the company then back in twenty fifteen.
Speaker 4: But years later, fast forward, years later where I am involved.
Speaker 4: I had moved here to Minerva and we started to
Speaker 4: have activity here on the property and so I had
Speaker 4: said something to Seth like, you're not gonna believe this,
Speaker 4: but Seth is the owner for the company. I was like,
Speaker 4: you're not gonna believe this, but stuff is happening here.
Speaker 4: And he said, well, let me bring some cameras and
Speaker 4: see what we can find. And that was the beginning
Speaker 4: of the Bigfoot project which is on YouTube. And yeah,
Speaker 4: the stuff that we had happened, especially the first night
Speaker 4: that he was here, when we had our kids here
Speaker 4: and everything, it was wild. We could hear them almost
Speaker 4: like playing with us. At one point at night, it
Speaker 4: was just Seth and I out with the night vision
Speaker 4: cameras and we were just walking down the trail from
Speaker 4: the back cabin and we could hear the wooden ox
Speaker 4: and things, but you could hear them like running around us.
Speaker 4: You'd hear one run. We'd turned the camera that way
Speaker 4: to look like did you hear that, and then we'd
Speaker 4: hear something behind us, So it sounded like there were multiple, sorry,
Speaker 4: multiple creatures there, and that was just it was wild.
Speaker 4: Then one of them threw a rock at us that
Speaker 4: hit near our feat where we could feel it hit
Speaker 4: the ground next to us. And that was pretty much
Speaker 4: the end of me being super excited about it, because
Speaker 4: I was like, all right, now we're getting a little
Speaker 4: bit carried away here. But uh yeah, we had stuff
Speaker 4: like that happen and for a while, like things have
Speaker 4: calmed down now, there was some pipeline that came in
Speaker 4: and tore up some of the farm here and things
Speaker 4: got really quiet then. But prior to that, it was
Speaker 4: a situation where if you went outside and you wanted
Speaker 4: to like knock on a on a tree, you would
Speaker 4: get a return knock Like it was, it was very active.
Speaker 2: I remember you saying you kind of got like a
Speaker 2: return howel Yes it's been a whistle.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes. So that was before I brought Seth here.
Speaker 4: That's what kicked everything off was I had a friend
Speaker 4: here who had flown in from Oregon. It was her
Speaker 4: first time in Ohio, and we were we had all
Speaker 4: kinds of weird stuff happened at this old farmhouse, and
Speaker 4: so we had we were kind of like on this
Speaker 4: ghost investigation kick at at the time, and we were
Speaker 4: investigating the house. But then we're like, let's go in
Speaker 4: the woods and see what we can find. So we
Speaker 4: went in the woods. We'd set everything up, and we
Speaker 4: weren't there very long, and she got extremely uncomfortable and
Speaker 4: she just said, I don't want to be in the
Speaker 4: woods anymore. I'd like to be out in the field
Speaker 4: cause the terrain here it is hilly, but it's woods
Speaker 4: mixed with farm fields. She's like, I don't I I
Speaker 4: just don't want to be in the woods. She didn't
Speaker 4: tell me why, she just said she didn't feel comfortable.
Speaker 4: So we went out in the field a little distance away,
Speaker 4: a couple hundred feet away from the woods. It wasn't
Speaker 4: far at all, but far enough to make her happy.
Speaker 4: And I said, well, this is kind of boring, like
Speaker 4: this an open field just doesn't seem like a ghost
Speaker 4: investigation to me. But let's play the Ohio Howe, which
Speaker 4: was recorded in Columbiana County, which is right next to
Speaker 4: where we live. Like, let's play this and see, you
Speaker 4: know they say bigfoots around here, and so I just
Speaker 4: held my phone up and just cut my hand around
Speaker 4: it to amplify it a little bit. It wasn't much,
Speaker 4: but turn the volume up and hit play and we
Speaker 4: got a return house and immediately I was like, Oh
Speaker 4: my gosh, this is so exciting. I got pumped about it.
Speaker 4: She got freaked out about it. Then our other friend,
Speaker 4: because there were three of us at the time, our
Speaker 4: other friend that was with us, Travis let out a whistle.
Speaker 4: He could do that whistle where you put your fingers
Speaker 4: in your mouth and you whistle really loud. I can't
Speaker 4: impossible whistle right, And he did that, and we got
Speaker 4: a whistle back and we could hear movement in the woods.
Speaker 4: And at that point she freaked out. She was like,
Speaker 4: you got to take him back to the house, and
Speaker 4: so we had to bring her back to the house,
Speaker 4: and then we went back out with I got a
Speaker 4: bluetooth speaker so I could amplify the sound and we'd
Speaker 4: play it and we'd play it out in the whistles
Speaker 4: and we would get returns back. As we did that
Speaker 4: that night, and so it was the next day that
Speaker 4: I went to seth and I'm like, hey, stuff is
Speaker 4: stuff's happening. Here's ramped up. Yeah, and he's like, well,
Speaker 4: let me come out and see what's going on between
Speaker 4: him coming out between that happening and him actually coming out,
Speaker 4: because he didn't get to come out the very next day.
Speaker 4: It's just the next day. I told him about it.
Speaker 4: But it had crossed my mind to go check the woods,
Speaker 4: because when we first moved here, I went out in
Speaker 4: the woods and I placed like crystals and things around
Speaker 4: the woods because I thought it'd be cool for the
Speaker 4: kids to find them someday, like treasure hunting or something.
Speaker 4: But I went out to check on them to see
Speaker 4: if anything was different, and one of my crystals was gone,
Speaker 4: and in its place was a deer vertebrae. And I
Speaker 4: called Seth and media I picked it up, and I'm like,
Speaker 4: oh my gosh. I called Seth and I'm like, hey,
Speaker 4: I think the gifting is happening or something, because there's
Speaker 4: the crystal's gone and the deer vertebrae's here. And the
Speaker 4: first thing he said was don't touch it. Don't touch
Speaker 4: it because it's.
Speaker 2: Too late a necklace out of an asshole, right.
Speaker 4: I was like, I'm holding it right now, it's too
Speaker 4: late for that. I'm sorry, and he's like, ah, man,
Speaker 4: but uh. I brought that back to the house. And
Speaker 4: then over the next few weeks the crystals would get
Speaker 4: moved and stuff, but none of them were taken. But
Speaker 4: a month later the one that was taken was brought
Speaker 4: back and put in the same spot, but it was
Speaker 4: all muddy. It was covered in mud. I picked it up.
Speaker 2: Too significance of not touching it.
Speaker 4: Was he getting test its DNA or test it see
Speaker 4: if there was hair on it or something. I guess,
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's crazy, well not crazy, but I mean it would
Speaker 2: be something if you could get like a bigfoot hair,
Speaker 2: you know, or yeah.
Speaker 4: Something, Yeah, But I wasn't thinking about evidence gathering at
Speaker 4: the time. I was just like, oh, this is so cool.
Speaker 4: So that's how that all started.
Speaker 2: But now let me ask you something, because I've heard
Speaker 2: the house, you know, the one really famous one that
Speaker 2: every but he's heard. It's very distinguishable because it doesn't
Speaker 2: sound like a dog or a coyote or it's it's
Speaker 2: it's got its own sound. But something I wanted to
Speaker 2: ask you about that people bring up is a smell
Speaker 2: and you've never smelled it. Do you think that that
Speaker 2: could be a component though, because I've heard a lot
Speaker 2: of people talk about almost like a sulphuric type of
Speaker 2: smell with these oh.
Speaker 4: Yeah that and like rotting rotting meat or like that dog.
Speaker 2: I've heard that gotten eggs something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I haven't Yeah no, I haven't experienced it.
Speaker 4: And when Seth was here and they were like running
Speaker 4: around us, we weren't smelling anything. I think just adding
Speaker 4: that extra layer of another sense being triggered would have
Speaker 4: really freaked me out too. But uh no, I haven't
Speaker 4: personally experienced it, but I have heard that from a
Speaker 4: lot of people as well, that they've been like either
Speaker 4: right before they see it, or just because of the
Speaker 4: proximity that they're in they smell something like that.
Speaker 2: I think one of the best investigation tools that people
Speaker 2: don't take into consideration is your own body. You know,
Speaker 2: your five senses, so you can hear it. Maybe you
Speaker 2: saw it, but did you sense anything, was there like
Speaker 2: a palpable energy change when you were hearing the howls
Speaker 2: or even the whistles, or do they feel negative to
Speaker 2: you or do they feel like anything at all?
Speaker 4: So the first night when we had been out there
Speaker 4: and we played the howl for the first time and
Speaker 4: got the whistles and stuff. At one point. This was
Speaker 4: after we'd dropped my friend back off at the house
Speaker 4: and we went back without her. We went to the
Speaker 4: entrance of the woods that we had left, and there
Speaker 4: was a why enough space that we could fit the
Speaker 4: gator through it if we wanted to, but we started
Speaker 4: to inch our way up toward it. When we got
Speaker 4: close to the entrance of the woods, there was a
Speaker 4: huge crash, like massive tree brakes that we heard. And
Speaker 4: when that happened, that felt bad, That felt concerning, like
Speaker 4: we were definitely not wanted to go into the woods
Speaker 4: at that point. Other times that I've been out, though,
Speaker 4: like even when Seth was here, it didn't feel negative.
Speaker 4: It just felt like they were playing with us. If
Speaker 4: I were to guess just based on the behavior that
Speaker 4: was happening, I would have thought that it would have
Speaker 4: been a younger animal that was messing with us, just
Speaker 4: having fun, playing with us, intrigued. So I didn't get
Speaker 4: any negative feelings from that. One thing my friend did
Speaker 4: tell me later about why she wanted out of the
Speaker 4: woods so badly is because she said that she was
Speaker 4: shining around with the flashlight, even though I told her
Speaker 4: to turn the lashlight off because I'm like, you're gonna
Speaker 4: see shadows or whatever. You're gonna freak yourself out right,
Speaker 4: But she said she swore that she saw something peeking
Speaker 4: from behind a tree.
