Whatever it was knew I was sitting in that tree

A listener writes “I have been listening to your show for a few months now. I like hearing all the encounters from every one.

I actually listen to your show every night when I’m getting ready for bed. Strange as that may seem lol. Any ways I’ve had some interesting things happen to me in the woods even though I have never seen a bigfoot I still think it’s what it was.

I’ve had metal tree stands bent and torn down, and I’ve also found a lot off weird tree structures to. I’ve had a lot of strange things happen. For instance one time while I was bow hunting I had been hunting this spot for the entire season. I was putting a lot off feed out to bring the deer in. Apples mostly with some corn and sugar beets. I would often put molasses on top of everything to.

Well one evening as it was getting down to about the last half hour of light I had 6 raccoons come in and we’re eating out of the bait pile. After about 5 minutes I had heard something moving behind my tree about 50 yards out. It was swampy behind my stand. I had heard something cross threw water at one point.

Every once in a while I could hear something walking threw the tall grass that was back there. It makes a pretty unique sound when a person walks through it. I’ve heard this sound several times before from passing by hunters. Well over the time it took to get all the way dark this thing had circled it’s way from my right hand side all the way behind me and ended up on my left side at about my 10 o’clock position to were there was a big white pine tree.

At this time it’s maybe 20 yards from me but it had gotten pretty dark. You could just make out the shape of the raccoons if you really focused. They were acting kinda strange and seemed spooked. Well what ever this thing was charged my bait pile and the coons. It was running and just as it was getting ready to get to the spot I maybe could have seen it it came to a quick stop.

It’s hard to explain it typing it all out. But I couldn’t see anything but straight in front of me with the way I have brushed my stand in. Anyway when this thing charged my bait pile the coons all ran up trees and we’re chattering and you could here then peeing down the tree as if they had literally had the piss scared out of them. I heard absolutely nothing after this thing had charged. Never heard it leave at all. And at this point it had to be 10 feet to my left. I was 16 and scared pretty bad. I was shaking uncontrollably. I believe whatever it was knew I was sitting in that tree.

It’s almost like it could sense my fear. Don’t know how to explain it. But I know the whole event was meant to scare me and get me to leave. Well like I said I was 16 and my dad had dropped me off because he hunted farther down the road. I usually would climb down when I’d see the head lights come down the road and I would walk out to the road and he would pick me up. Well that night he was later then normal coming to get me.

When he pulled up to my trail I waited for him to get out of the truck and I yelled for him to come back to my stand and get me. There was no way I was getting out of that tree with no one around. He did walk back to my stand to get me. I told him what had happened before I’d even leave the tree. We seen nothing around. And like I said I never heard this thing run off at all. There’s a lot more story I have like this one and there’s a lot more details to this story. It’s just hard to type every thing out.

I’ve probably had a dozen weird things like this happen to me. I’d like to talk to you in person some time and tell them to you. My dad has had his own encounters to. He actually seen one and was chased by it out of the bay while ice fishing. If you would ever like to hear my encounters I’d be more then happy to talk about them. Thanks for your time.”
