What Lurks Beneath Podcast writes “Ernie Davieau is a veteran hunter, and butcher who gained notoriety for a compelling Bigfoot encounter he experienced in the forests of Massachusetts.
During a routine hunt near Blanford and Granville, Davieau came face-to-face with a towering Sasquatch, witnessing its movements and even experiencing what he described as an unexpected communication attempt.”
Strange Familiars writes “Ben shares stories of frightening shadow-man encounters, ghosts, bigfoot, and more.”
A listener writes “Back in 2018 I was car camping on cottonwood pass when it just reopened for the season. So cottonwood pass in Colorado connects from Buena Vista to Gunnison or crested Butte Colorado. When this encounter happened, it was the second day of the pass being opened for the summer.
I have a girlfriend that lives in crested Butte so I decided to car camp and drive halfway up the cottonwood pass camp for the night, then drive the rest of the way tomorrow. So I pulled over at the top of the pass on a pull out and called it camp for the night. I was in a Subaru hatchback which I made a bed in the back and was just going to sleep there for the night. Around 2:00 in the morning I had to pee really bad. However, I forgot that I locked the doors and set the alarm on. So when I went to get out of the car to go to the bathroom I set off the alarm. So the car was honking lights flashing for about 5 minutes before I could fumble around and find the goddamn keys. I finally found the keys and and the alarmed the car.
So keep this in mind. The car was honking and lights flashing and making a s*** ton of noise for about 5 minutes. I get outside I go to the bathroom I come back to the car I get inside and lay down. And I’m laying in the back of the Subaru and the dome light is still on. So to make a reference my feet are facing north so my feet are facing the tailgate in my head is facing the driver’s seat. As I’m laying there I’ve noticed the dome light is still on. So I’m laying in the back of the Subaru and the dome light is still on and I’m getting annoyed.
As I’m laying there staring at the dome light I realize that my feet are rising above my head. So as you know if you have a light inside your house you can’t see what’s going on outside. So I’m laying there in the back of the Subaru with the lights on as my feet are rising above my head about 3 ft off the ground. And all of a sudden whatever is lifting the tailgate of my Subaru let’s go and my Subaru drops to the ground again while I’m sitting in it. So I am sitting there terrified in fear paralyzed I cannot move something lifted up the back of the car about 3 ft off the ground and then dropped it. At this point, I am laying in the back of the Subaru with the dome light still on by the way still can’t see what’s happening outside.
I am paralyzed in fear something just lifted up my tailgate while I was sitting in it and lifted it up about three or four feet and then dropped it. I have played this scenario over and over trying to make a logical explanation for what that was. Yes I was on the side of the road, however I was on cottonwood pass in Colorado on the second day it opened for the season. I would have seen any vehicles coming up or going in both directions. it had to have been 2 or 3:00 in the morning. I accidentally set off my alarm honking and flashing lights for 5 minutes.
I pissed something off. The two people that I told said maybe it was a deer that just brushed into your car or maybe it was a moose that just bumped into you. If there is a car going off with honking horns and lights flashing and making all sorts of f****ing annoying sounds, you are going to scare off any wild animal in the next mile from you. I scared off any wild animal from my alarm going off. I attracted something. I pissed off something that came to me. And picked up the back of my vehicle two or three feet and dropped it. I don’t know about honking horns and flashing lights that attract wild animals. I’ve never heard of that.
So once the vehicle stopped moving after it stopped bouncing after being dropped from 3 ft I am paralyzed with fear. I wasn’t able to move for what it seemed like five f****** minutes. Unfortunately I couldn’t just move to the front seat and take off I had to get out of the vehicle to get to the front seat because I had so much gear and stuff blocking my way to the driver’s seat. So mind you the dome light is still on at this point. So I can still not see what is outside.”
Mount Hood is more than just a stunning peak—it’s a hotspot for eerie folklore and supernatural encounters. From the Bigfoot Highway, where countless sasquatch sightings have been reported, to the chilling silence of Silent Rock, this mountain holds mysteries that defy explanation.
We’ll uncover the haunted history of Timberline Lodge, the unsettling legends of the Stick Indians, and the ghostly presence lurking near Little Crater Lake. Is Mount Hood a paranormal vortex, or just a place where strange things happen? Join us as we explore the bizarre and haunted side of Oregon’s most famous peak, in this episode of Dark Places.
Ed and Ed Jr. share their Bigfoot encounter in Plum Creek Monroe Michigan. The father and son were fishing when the encounter happened.
A listener writes “I’ll cut right to it, 3 years ago I was out in my backyard smoking a cigarette in a suburb about 40 minutes north of Boston. I’ve been interested in the existence of Bigfoot since I was a teenager but never considered them to be anywhere close to Massachusetts.
That is until one summer night I heard whistling coming from the swamp behind my house. Thinking it was a bird I whistled back. It whistled back at me and we went back in forth a few more times, I made each whistle different and it would copy me. I thought to myself at the time “must be a very clever mocking bird”.
That is until from a different part of the woods/swamp I was huffed at by what I can only describe as a gorilla noise. I felt that huff shake me in my bones and scared me so much I ran back inside. Having been interested in the subject for much my life I realized maybe that wasn’t a bird I was whistling with and maybe a juvenile while big daddy/momma huffed at me as if saying “quick talking to my kid”. I’ve heard other strange noises coming from those woods that summer including a wood knock and what I can only describe as a tropical bird out of the Amazon rainforest.
Anyways I’m a big fan of the podcast and would like to get your opinion on what I heard, I know it’s not the most interesting encounter and was told by friends/family that I’m nuts and just heard a fishercat or something, but no. I heard whistling and then something with immense lung capacity make a very gorilla/ape like huff at me.”
The Confessionals writes “In episode 764: Dream Hacking Agenda, Tony is joined by returning guest Vicki Joy Anderson to expose a chilling truth most aren’t ready to hear: your mind is no longer off-limits. What begins as a conversation about lucid dreaming and sleep technology quickly evolves into a high-stakes discussion on AI, Silicon Valley’s hidden agendas, and the ancient entities possibly feeding humanity its darkest innovations.
From Silicon Valley elites receiving visions from shadow realms to the rollout of the Halo Headband—designed not for entertainment but to manipulate and prolong your lucid dreams—Tony and Vicki dig deep into the idea of “noetic sovereignty,” or your right to control your own thoughts. They uncover how new tech like Prophetic’s dream devices and REMspace’s real-time lucid dream communication are laying the groundwork for digital possession, mind mining, and the loss of free will—one click of “I agree” at a time.”
Mysteries Unknown writes “These Dogman encounters aren’t just scary—they’re personal. In this episode of Mysteries Unknown, we dive into three disturbing cases that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about what’s lurking in the woods.
Encounter One: Darriel Denton explores the Land Between the Lakes when he spots a Dogman lying just off the road—only to watch it disappear into what he believes was a portal.
Encounter Two: A seasoned hunter is stalked deep in the forest by something with glowing eyes and predatory intent. He survived—but by the thinnest of margins.
Encounter Three: A man shoots what he believes to be a fox. Years later, a Dogman returns, using mind speak to tell him it’s going to hunt him down… when it gets permission. This creature doesn’t just follow—it torments. One thing that stopped it all, the name of Jesus, lets deep dive into this!”

A listener writes “I had an encounter New Year’s Eve 2007-08. That night me and a now ex girlfriend drove from Flagstaff Arizona north on highway 180 it takes about an hour to two hours depending on traffic and at the time weather.
That night we drove from the reservation to Flagstaff to watch the annual New Year’s Eve pine cone drop. We got there around 11 walked around but that night it was very cold and very windy! Around 1130 we got back in the car and watched from the parking lot because it was so windy. After it dropped we left.
To us it was still early and we had nothing to do the next day. I said let’s drive north and through Grand Canyon. We left Flagstaff maybe at 1230 drove north the car was getting tossed around because of the high winds. We got to Valle at about 115am from Flagstaff to Valle I think we passed one car going south. Made it to the south entrance of the park drove through not one car we passed. It’s about 15-20 miles to get to the west entrance from the south entrance. We seen mice coyotes and various other rodents in the park. We got to the west entrance headed south on our way to Cameron Az there was snow on the ground still very windy and cold!
About 1-2 miles south of the Welcome to the Grand Canyon sign she said “what’s that?” I knew it wasn’t an elk or a deer it was alone big and black and walking upright When looked I seen it’s eyes they reflected in the headlights white, forward facing eyes unlike deer or elk where just one eye is usually reflective. It looked at us then it looked down. I kept my eyes on it and the instrument cluster to watch my speed. We both seen it walk across the highway. It didn’t look at us as we approached it. It kept its head down carefully walking down an embankment. I stopped the car did not even think to roll down the window and I honked twice. It paid us no attention just walked into the darkness. Its body was black and it was huge and muscular I could see it’s muscles under its hair.
It had a tiny head I did not see its ears or face. My ex gf said she seen white hairs on its back and shoulders. It had to be a male it was probably 8-9 feet tall. I can still see it today it’s back and broad shoulders This thing was huge and well proportioned!! I let my foot off the brake and stepped on the gas pedal!! Before I knew it I was well beyond 90 mph like it was chasing us! That was the only time I felt nervous. I wasn’t scared just had a reaction. We didn’t pass a single vehicle till about 3 miles south from our encounter. It was a Ford Escape a green and light colored SUV. Her and I did not talk till we got to the conoco gas station about 30 minutes east in Cameron.”
The Why Files writes “In a remote corner of Alaska, a military officer stumbles upon a chilling discovery—an enormous pyramid buried deep under the icy wilderness, possibly larger than the Great Pyramid of Giza. The initial sighting during a seismic event leads to whispers of ancient technologies and hidden histories.
The local news coverage mysteriously vanishes overnight. Witnesses and insiders offer conflicting stories, fueling speculations about secret military involvement and otherworldly energies. It’s become known as the Dark Pyramid or Black Pyramid. What are the origins of this enigmatic structure? Why is it buried? Why so much security and secrecy? Could this be buried technology that holds truths about our past and power beyond our understanding?”
Chuke’s Outdoor Adventures writes “Chuke discusses a scenario where a bigfoot is killed. What’s next? Also, does the authorities at large have information that they are hiding about bigfoot?? All artwork in thumbnail and video by Rob Roy Menzies.”
Tonight we will be speaking to Chuke and Todd. Chuke writes “I’m Chuke from Chuke’s Outdoor Adventures. I was featured on The Alaska Triangle season 2 that can still be viewed on Discover Plus. I’m a bigfoot researcher living in Alaska and I have a weekly bigfoot show I do every Sunday on YouTube. I work regularly with Rob Roy Menzies, owner of The Bigfoot Art Gallery in Palmer and Larry Bean’s Baxter author of a book on Port Chatham. I would love to be a guest on your show to talk about my investigations of sasquatch on Prince of Whales Island (where the upside-down trees are) and my sighting of a cat-like creature here in Alaska that matches the sighting of a recent guest from Oregon you had.”
Todd writes “Trying to get something off my chest that happened in the upper peninsula of Michigan in 1977. It’s a kind of long story. I saw the creature up close when I was 11 years old.” Spoke to the witness and he has agreed to come on the show.
He said I was playing in the woods not paying attention to my surroundings and I came across this thing and this thing stood up and looked at me. The face reminded me of an old Native American but it was not human. I think it was digging for something. I was uncomfortable close. The creature looked at me in disgust and turned and walked away. At the same time I was running the opposite direction.”

From The Shadows: Did A Bigfoot Sighting Lead To Paranormal Activity?
Tiyi writes “Dear Wes, My adult children insisted I share this with you, telling me that yours is the best Bigfoot podcast out there. Though I am no stranger to the paranormal, (or anomalous, as I refer to the spooky), I have never experienced an encounter like the one my husband and I had a few days ago in the national forest in Northern Lower Michigan on the full moon.
We did not see them, but heard them clear and close, making a whoop that neither of us had ever heard, and they left an unmistakable sign of their presence. We had been sitting in silence as the sun set, waiting for the full moon to rise. We had no fire, no libation, no conversation, and almost no movement for more than 90 minutes.
The only sound was the river nearby, spring peepers, and buzzing insects. I sensed what I thought was an animal nearby, but didn’t see anything, except vague movement near the edge of the grove where we sat. At one point it grew cold, the peepers stopped chirping, and the woods went silent. I remarked that it was getting chilly, and that the moon was obscured by cloud cover, so suggested we leave. Again, without talking, we made our way to the car.
When we were about 20 feet from it we heard a loud two-pitched whoop. We froze, and it happened again. This sound was extremely close. The call belonged to no night bird, or any other creature we had ever heard. We froze each time it whooped, then took a few more steps toward the car only for it to whoop again. Then we heard a response from about a quarter mile away that matched the one next to us. When the whoops ceased completely we loaded up and drove a weary, determined to google owl cries to see if we could find a match.
When we hit the pavement we stopped on the deserted road to listen to peepers. Checking the rear view mirror to make sure no vehicles were approaching, I noticed a large handprint on the back windshield of my car. It was freaky to say the least. We took some photos that I will add at the end of this correspondence. When we arrived home and looked at the handprint under the light it really blew our minds!
The handprint was larger than either of our hands and appeared to have been made with some chalk like or claylike substance. We took multiple photos.
Later that night when I shared photos and the story with my kids via chat, they shared audio of Bigfoot whoops that matched exactly with what we heard. I collected the print the next morning using clear contact paper because rain was in the forecast, and I wanted to preserve it.
This was a first for both my husband and me. I’m including a link to a video by daughter created using our photos, video, and me telling about what happened. I think it will demonstrate quite clearly what we encountered. My kids tell me that there are places to document encounters such as this, but I have no clue who would benefit from the evidence we collected. I have no desire to reveal the location. This place in the forest is sacred to me. I wish to protect all of our relatives, physical or not, who dwell there.”

Strange Familiars writes “In 1911 a family outside of Pottsville, Pennsylvania felt they were cursed by a witch who set a strange black cat upon them. The cat could grow gigantic in size, was unable to be killed with normal bullets, and brought all manner of bad luck in its wake. Years later, members of the family insisted the hexcat was still haunting them.”
HauntTV writes “Every year countless UFO sightings are reported from thousands of regions around the globe. Many of these sightings are documented and investigated. Most of them can be accounted for by weather patterns, flight schedules or extraordinary imagination.
But a select few are still considered unsolved…extra-terrestrial puzzles that police investigators, government officials and even medical communities cannot explain. These are the unique, often untold stories that have captivated UFO experts and researchers imaginations for decades. These are the CLOSE ENCOUNTERS.”
Storied writes “Between 1764 and 1767, a mysterious creature terrorized the French countryside, leaving over 100 dead. Was it a monstrous wolf, a cryptid, or something more sinister? This is the chilling true story of the Beast of Gévaudan — a real-life horror that still haunts history.”
The Beast of Gévaudan was a man-eating animal or animals that terrorized the French province of Gévaudan between 1764 and 1767. It is believed to have killed over 100 people. The creature was described as large, with a shaggy reddish mane, dark stripes, and a long, tufted tail. While many believe it was a wolf, some theories suggest it might have been a lion, hyena, or even a prehistoric creature.
The Confessionals writes “In episode 762: Holy Spirit: God Within You, Tony is joined by author and evangelist David Diga Hernandez, whose life has been shaped by the Holy Spirit. From shadow figures and whispered voices to a warlock in his family line, David shares how generational darkness targeted him from childhood. But it was a hotel room prayer at age 11 that shattered the grip of fear and introduced him to the overwhelming presence of Jesus. What followed was a journey through spiritual deserts, battles with striving, and the discovery that the Holy Spirit isn’t earned—He abides.
Tony and David dive into the layers of deliverance, the deception of performance-based faith, and why Gen Z is being pulled between witchcraft and revival. This conversation cuts to the heart of spiritual warfare and reveals how true freedom comes not from formulas, but from surrender.”
