Most Famous Bigfoot Sightings

Bigfoot, or Sasquatch, is one of North America's most enduring legends. The scientific community largely dismisses the idea of a large, unknown ape-like creature sauntering through the forests because there's never been any hard evidence that such an animal exists.  Nonetheless, there have been thousands of reported eyewitness accounts over the last half century from people all over the U.S. and Canada. Here are some of the most famous Bigfoot sightings. William Roe encounter: 1955 One of the most famous Bigfoot sightings ...[More]

1987: Did Bigfoot Kidnap a Teenage Girl?

After reading the title, you may wonder why I would start a true crime or strange disappearance story about a legendary creature referred to as either Bigfoot or Sasquatch. If you’re not familiar with the lore, Bigfoot is a mythical creature allegedly seen by hundreds of people. Supposedly, he’s an enormous creature covered in fur. There is also the popular video taken on October 20, 1967, by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin at Bluff Creek in northern California. The creature looks like a gigantic ape, but it’s not.

Why Do So Many People Believe in Bigfoot?

 “Giant footprints puzzle residents,” a headline in the Humboldt Times announced. The small Northern California newspaper reported that a road construction crew had discovered humanlike footprints that were a massive 16 inches long. The paper was the first to give the mysterious animal that made the prints its memorable moniker—“Bigfoot”—and the creature has been stomping through the American imagination ever since. Today, the legendary beast seems to be everywhere: You will find Bigfoot looking awful...[More]

2021: Sasquatch Spotted in Ohio

ASHLAND -- The 20-year-old woman walked out of the Warehouse 24-Hour Gym around midnight, her workout complete. She turned to the right and headed to her car in the well-lit parking lot. There were no other vehicles in the lot on that side of the building, constructed and opened in 2018. But she was reportedly not alone on the cool, clear spring night April 24, 2021. The woman heard a twig snap. She looked and saw a creature, seven or eight feet tall and covered in gray fur, racing back into the woods about 30 yards away. It was far too larg...[More]

Is Bigfoot an Extraterrestrial Visitor?

Is it possible the creature known as Bigfoot, Sasquatch or by a number of different names all over the world is an inter-dimensional traveler? That's a theory now in play with both Bigfoot and UFO researchers, and one that played heavily into discussions at this weekend's Greater New England UFO Conference held in Leominster. Paranormal researcher William Hall, at the convention ostensibly to talk ghosts, said the paranormal world as a whole is more connected than people realize. But that is beginning to change, at least fr...[More]

1960 - The CIAs UFO Bigfoot Evidence

In the 1960s, the CIA investigated an alleged simultaneous encounter with Bigfoot and a UFO at Presque Isle State Park in the all too appropriately named city, Erie, Pennsylvania. The ensuing reports were documented as part of the infamous Project Bluebook, during which the government investigated thousands of cases involving UFOs. Presque Isle is a peninsula arching out over Lake Erie to form Presque Isle Bay, one of the state's most visited summer tourist destinations. On the night of July 31, 1966, four tourists from New York found th...[More]

1924: Camper Kidnapped By Sasquatch

The year was 1924, the place, near Toba Inlet in British Columbia. Albert Ostman was a Canadian prospector who reported that he was abducted by a Sasquatch and held captive for six days. In 1924, a young Scandinavian named Albert Ostman spent several days prospecting for a lost gold mine near the head of Toba Inlet in British Columbia.

1967: Patterson and Gimlin Bigfoot Encounter

Arguably the most famous and influential Bigfoot footage is the 1967 film shot by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin in Northern California. The "Bigfoot walk" it depicts has been parodied by many, but never truly replicated. Even with this enhanced image, it’s hard to tell if it’s a person in a gorilla suit or the real deal. On Friday, October 20th, 1967, in the early afternoon Patterson and Gimlin were riding generally northeast (upstream) on horseback along the east bank of Bluff Creek. At some time between 1:15 pm and 1...[More]
