The Supernatural Sleuth writes “They called it a “Yahoo” — a towering, hair-covered wild man said to roam the Appalachian frontier long before the word Bigfoot ever existed. As the legend goes, Daniel Boone himself claimed to have shot and killed one: a ten-foot creature he couldn’t explain.
Was it a tall tale from one of America’s greatest frontiersmen? An early encounter with what we now call Sasquatch? Or something the old-timers in these mountains understood far better than we do, a deception wearing the shape of a beast? In this episode of The Supernatural Sleuth, we dig into Boone’s forgotten Yahoo story, the Appalachian roots of the wild man legend, and what a 25-year law enforcement veteran makes of the evidence.
