Mischievous Sasquatch in Southeast Texas


I recently came across the following account:

I grew up in southeast Texas about 40 miles west of Houston and lived on a small farm. Sometimes at night there would be something screaming out in the fields from time to time. My neighbors heard it as well. One morning while waiting for the school bus at the end of our driveway I looked down and noticed a very large barefoot print in the sand. The heel had been run over by my dad going to work but the rest of it was plain as day. About 12 inches long and at least 7 inches wide was still exposed that you could see. I knew it was a Sasquatch print. I wanted to show someone but here comes the bus and I had no time to run back home and get my brother to take a look. That afternoon when I got off of the bus to see the track again, so many cars went in and out of the driveway that day that it was now completely gone. I was sure disappointed about that. I tried to tell my brothers and a few friends about it but they really did not believe me.

There was a neighbor in the 1970's who lived on the property directly north of ours. He went deer hunting, shot one then took it home. He tied up the deer to field dress it, hanging from a tree limb. His wife called him in for breakfast and after he came out to field dress the deer he looked and saw the deer he tied up was not there. He noticed it being drug over a fence and into the woods but he never saw what had it. Everyone said it was a big cat that got it. But looking back now, I know that big cats pick up their prey with their teeth and walk forward. This deer was being drug. Cats do not drag anything backwards. And how would a cougar be able to pull the deer down from the rope it was tied up with? If it was a cat that got the mans deer, the big cat would have been the last thing he saw going over the fence and into the woods, not the deer.

Anyways, I was talking recently to a friend of mine who grew up next door to me. He is in his 50's now and I am in my mid 40's. He told me he went fishing in the 1990's on the lake that was on the property where the man had his deer drug off. He said while he was walking up to the lake in the woods that he saw trees that had the bark stripped off of them about 9 foot off of the ground and it looked like there were claw marks on the bark as well. While he was fishing there that day he began to get the feeling of being watched. That made him feel nervous but then he noticed a very strong musky odor that he never smelled before and he got the heck out of there fast. He said when he goes to visit his parents place, he can still smell that smell from time to time in the air. He also said he and his brothers would hear whistling and whoops on their property but never saw what was making the noise. He said they also heard stuff walking on two feet on their property at night but never saw anything either.

Another incident in the exact same area in the 1960's where some guys who went swimming at their lake one evening. It was about 1/2 mile from my home. While two brothers and a couple of friends were swimming, their car horn starts blowing. there were no houses close by and they thought that my uncle was over there messing with them. They got kind of spooked because they could not see their car since it had became dark. So they get out of the lake and grabbed their flashlights and ran over there to where the car was parked. They told me that there were very large footprints all in the sand around their car. They knew then it was not my uncle messing with them because the prints were so large it would have had to been an extremely large person to have left it. But nothing was ever said about a Sasquatch. They just thought it was some large man without shoes on.

One more thing that happened to my older brother and cousin makes me think it too was also a Sasquatch. My mother had a twin sister and they were always doing stuff together. So one evening there was a special at church and my parents and my aunt and uncle went to it. My older brother and cousin stayed at my aunt's house while the grown ups were all at church. Long story short my aunt and uncle had a cattle farm. And they had dogs that were kind of mean per say, but did not take a liking to people much. They always stayed outside. Now my aunt's place was 200 acres. Anyways it was a large place and while my brother and cousin were there just watching TV or whatever, the dogs start whining outside. They had 7 or 8 of them. Now these dogs never came inside of the house but they were scratching at the door wanting in. Then they hear what sounded like something scraping the window screen in the living room. This was in the summertime and the windows were open. That scared my cousin and brother enough to go lock themselves in the bathroom until our parents all came back from church a couple of hours later. My brother said he was in 10th grade at the time and my cousin would have been in 7th. My brother said it sounded just like something was scraping its fingernails on the window screens. It would do it at one window for a bit then go to another window. He said it whatever it was went around to all of the windows of the house and scratched on the screens.

I thought about these things on and off that had happened to my brother, neighbors and cousins a lot through the years. And after putting two and two together after some things I have experienced as an adult, I look back to those weird events back home and I now believe it was a Sasquatch that had done these strange things that took place. - GG

Mr. Peanut and UFO Debris


“For me it's not about finding someone to tell all of the story, I've made not much of an attempt to do so really. It was the first story that seemed to be close to mine and my twins experiences in all of our lives. When I was younger I spent a lot of my time in life trying to figure it all out in my head (everyday really). Because when you are younger you want to fit in as a quote on quote “Normal person”. You don't wake up everyday and go to school and just say to your friends “Hey Billy, what you do this weekend? Oh me, oh, not much, just had some aliens come hang out for a bit this weekend. LOL!” I can joke now but back then it was hard very hard to deal with! I have let a tight network of people know what happened to me in my life other than that my lips don't speak much on the subject. I struggled in school for a long time because of it; sports and in life. Concentration was very hard for me because my brain was always scattered on are 'they' coming back tonight!

When I got to my 20s I learned over time that I'm not going to live my life in fear or let the disclaimers think they know. I know what really exists in this world. I know the truth. From that moment on I have become a very popular person. I am well liked and have a very good name in my community. Do I talk about this to many others? No. But I will if someone really was serious about knowing the truth! I have a son now. I worry more about him now then myself because I don't know if this is a generational thing! My mother would have the 'Planters Peanut Man' from the picture on the peanut jar take her away at night when she was in her youth. She'd nicknamed it 'Mr Tickle Toes' because he would tickle her toes before he took her. I've also heard some crazy things happen on my father's side involving my grandfather so I just don't know (which was actually published in a book in the 80s). I never met my grandfather he died before I was born to ask him the truth on the whole event.

The story is a UFO crashed on my grandfather's farm in the 60s. I never heard what happened to the bodies but I know he never reported it. He took pieces of the ship we had a 4 x 6 piece of this ship in our family home in the loft upstairs where it stayed for years until my parents divorced. From there I have no clue where it went. I don't have a great relationship with my father to ask of what happened to it! I can't remember because I was young how me and my twin found out about the story but as soon as we did my parents made sure they shut the story down as it was fake. But you don't keep a piece of burnt up blob of whatever it was in your house for 12 years taking up space when it's fake.

It wasn't talked about again until a UFO investigator published a book in the 80s. When my mom read the book by chance and was surprised the story leaked (some family member, one of my dad's brothers must have leaked it). My mom for some reason jumped on the phone to call the publishing company to get a hold of the author to tell them it was 'fake' but once again you don't have a burnt up piece of what I describe as a blob in your house for 12 years if it's fake. I'll never truly know what happened on that farm because my grandfather is dead but something happened on that farm, that is fact. My mom has been weird about it. All she tells us is bits and pieces of stuff but never a full story on anything. She doesn't like to talk about any of it but once in a while she will say somethings like the story of 'Mr Tickle Toes'. I think she leaked it to my brother and me because she knew what we told her about our experiences and she couldn't deny that something was going on. She told us like it was a normal thing. She said it in a manner like it happens to everyone “when I was a kid Mr tickles toes would come for me” like no big deal so stop talking about it.

Anyways this is some of my story. It's confusing I know but this is what I've had to deal with never getting straight answers of any of it and I find myself asking more questions to myself and never getting answers. If you do know of someone that is a legit UFO investigator please feel free to send them my way. If you yourself have any questions feel free to ask and thanks for the response.” - Holloweyes NHL

As the Crow Flies

I live in the Central Valley in Visalia, Ca and this took place in 2015 my senior year of high school. It was the weekend with only me and my mom where home, she was making breakfast in the kitchen I was sitting at the table on my phone. Looking out the window I see a crow flying and thinking nothing of it when the crow stops mid flight almost like you press the pause button, I can see the wing flapping then just stop. After a couple of seconds less than a minute it’s like time hit the play button and the crow continues to fly almost falling but was able to keep flying. I lived on a cul de sac the the crow was opposite of my house I would guess in the backyard of the house facing mine so 20-30 yards at the max. Both of you talked about small odd occurrences in the time slip episode and something about that crow I never forgot. - Reese V

'Hammerhead Shark' Alien Humanoid


Christian, 25, was living with his parents and his grandparents at a fairly large home in North Carolina “not far from the Brown Mountains.” In 1998, when he was around 6 years old, he recalls waking up very early in the morning and needing to use the bathroom. There were no street lights where he lived and it was quite dark at night. The bathroom was located at the end of a long hall on the top floor of the house. Christian's room was the only one on the top floor, aside from a smaller sewing room that his grandmother used. His grandparents and his parents all slept on the first floor so there shouldn’t have been anyone else on that floor. Also, the grandmother was adamant that the sewing room door stay closed when she wasn't using it. On this night, Christian recalls waking up and feeling “strange”. He began walking down the hall to the bathroom and observed that the door to the sewing room was open, something he found that to be quite odd. When he looked in the room, he saw a dim bluish light coming from the window which was directly across the from the door, on the other side of the room. He also saw a silhouette of a figure standing in the window. This figure, which stood 5 feet tall, seemed to have the head of a hammerhead shark. “It was flat and elongated almost in a Y-shape but if you bent the tips flat.” As he stared at the figure, trying to understand what he was seeing, the entity began to rock back and forth. This terrified Christian who ran back to his room and hid under the covers. The next thing he felt was being in a sort of black void, but not a void. He had trouble describing it. “It felt like I was not anywhere,” he said, like he didn't exist in any time and space. When he woke up the next day, he told his grandparents who took him to see a doctor after they noticed burns and peculiar circle and rectangle marks on his left arm. The doctor thought they were rug burns but, later, upon thinking about it, Christian thought they looked like tool marks around burned flesh. He began having nightmares of lion faces soon after, including involving himself running in a long corridor and encountering one of these lion people. He attributed these dreams to anxiety from the sighting. He also claims that in 2003, he and his friend Daniel were walking home at night and observed a blue light hovering 50 feet over them. It zig zagged away and disappeared over a neighbor's house. He wonders if this was somehow connected to his creature encounter?

Here's a similar account from Albert S. Rosales:

Location. Coteaux, near Trois Rivieres, Quebec, Canada
Date: July 27 1965
Time: 1630
10-year old Andre sees an object near the ground resembling a vertical binocular (2 cylinders 1m50 in height linked by bars) it makes zigzag movements at a low height in the sky and disappears behind a cliff. Andre briefly approaches the object, which seems to disappear and appear at, will. Later Andre returns to his home and inside encounters a strange being about 1.50m in height, with red scabrous skin resembling hard plastic, long arms and legs and an elongated and flat face. The being seems aggressive and afraid the witness flees.

Unknown Hairy Hominid Encountered Near Louisville, Kentucky


I received a telephone call from an eyewitness named 'Joe' who had a harrowing encounter with a supposed Bigfoot near Louisville, Kentucky.

On August 17, 2018, Joe and his 12-year-old son, were fishing on the banks of the Ohio River in Oldham County, Kentucky. It was late afternoon, so Joe decided that they needed to start walking back to the car before dusk. They had parked several miles away in Jefferson County and had hiked through the woods to reach their favorite fishing spot on the river.

As they were packing up, Joe's son said that he heard something unusual; but Joe was in a hurry and wanted to get a move on. They were loaded with gear, which included a bucket full of catfish. That's when Joe heard the 'whoop' sound coming from above them on the low bluff. As they walked a bit further, Joe spotted a large figure on top of the bluff looking in their direction. He didn't think much of it, but noticed that it was following them.

Joe had his son lead in front of him out of caution. He always carried a sidearm when he was in the woods. Joe was raised in the Tennessee mountains and was a skilled outdoorsman, but he was always aware of his surroundings. He then heard a low growling coming from behind him. Then suddenly a fist-sized rock landed on the trail behind him. He told his son to move faster so that they could get back to the car as soon as possible.

After hiking for approximately 30 minutes, and avoiding 2 more hurled rocks, they finally reached their car. Joe told his son to get in the car as he loaded the trunk with the gear. As he finished and opened the driver's side door, he observed the creature standing about 40 foot away near the edge of the woods. He was stunned at what he was looking at! Was this a Bigfoot?

Joe and his son were both sitting in the front of the car and watching the huge bipedal creature standing to the left of them. Joe states that it stood at least 7 foot in height and was very muscular. 'This thing looked like it was wearing football shoulder pads' Joe explained. 'The cone-like head had no neck and was just sitting on its shoulders. I've never seen anything like it!' He said that the face was like a human man, but the features were 'flat.' It had auburn hair on the body, except for the face, feet, knees, elbows and chest; similar to the hair on a 'horse mane.' The skin had a 'purplish hue to it.' It was 'top-heavy and all muscle' with 'eyes that were black and large.'

Joe opened the side window to get a better look, despite the loud protests of his son. That's when he noticed the teeth, which the creature was now baring. He stated that he could see that the teeth, which 'looked like molars all the way around, and that there may have been double rowed.' Joe grabbed his sidearm and stepped out of the car. He instantly cocked the hammer, as the creature cowered and hid behind a large hickory tree. It was apparent that this beast was aware of guns. That's when Joe got a good whiff of the intense odor; what he described as week-old roadkill. The creature looked at Joe from around the tree, growled, then vanished. He had no idea where it had gone, and he wasn't going to stick around to find out.

Since that day, Joe has researched Bigfoot sightings in the area. Because of the features of this particular being, he was now beginning to question if this was actually a Bigfoot. None of the illustrations resembled what he had witnessed. He talked to other people who frequented the area where he fished, and it was obvious that this creature had made itself known to others. Joe was wary of making a report since he is well-known within his community, and he wanted to avoid ridicule.

Joe believes that the creature was curious, but was also defending it's territory. He has not returned to the area and doesn't plan to in the future.

NOTE: Honestly, I'm not sure about the validity of this report since it sounds somewhat similar to this account from last July - Menacing Bigfoot in Kentucky. Let me state that I'm presenting the report 'as is' and let you decide if it's real or concocted. Thanks...Lon
