Tony Merkel writes “This morning Scott Carpenter’s son Travis called me to say that his father passed away suddenly from a brain aneurysm last night. Scott and I had been becoming good friends since he appeared on my show. He lived 10 minutes from the office and we had been planning on recording more and going out to his areas where he’s had his incredible experience. He will be miss by all of us immensely. Please pray for his family to have peace in knowing that Scott is truly living his best life now with Jesus Christ, his Lord and savior.”
Scott Carpenter was on a recent episode on The Confessionals. Tony writes “In episode 524: Bigfoot and Dogman Nephilim DNA we are joined by Scott Carpenter. I was in a local pizzeria called Legends and Lore Pizzaria and in talking to the owner he informed me that Scott Carpenter, the author of The Nephilim Among Us, lives in the same town my studio is located in. So we reached out to Scott and brought him to the studio for a fantastic conversation. Scott was someone that laughed at people who believe bigfoot existed and probably thought someone should be institutionalized when claiming they have seen one. All that stopped one day while fishing and encountering a bigfoot himself. Once that happened he did a 360 and started to research everything he could about them. He would go out in the woods with cameras strapped to his body to catch as many video hours as possible to increase his chance of catching something on film. The more he researched and the more he went out, the more he learned bigfoot was not the only creature that roams these East Tennessee hills. He’s had dogman encounters, little people encounters, and portal sightings which all lead him to believe there is more to these cryptids than just being hairy creatures living in the forest.”
