Strange sounds in Tennessee

A listener writes “I have never seen a Bigfoot, but always believed in them for some reason. Until recently, I thought they only existed on the West Coast.

Last year I was at my sister’s lake house on Watts Bars Dam Lake in Spring City, Tennessee. It was around 1 a.m. and I went outside on her enclosed porch to just relax and listen to all the frogs & crickets. It was very dark. I heard the dog that lives across the lake barking like crazy & thought it must be barking at a critter of some sort. Next thing I know, I hear this extremely loud, deep yell that made my hair stand up & ran me in the house. It came from the same direction as the barking dog.

I don’t know what it was but it had to be huge with a large lung capacity to make that yell. I googled every animal noise when I got home, watched YouTube videos and the closest sound to what I heard was a Bigfoot video. Recently realized it sounded like the Predator in the first movie when he yelled after fixing his leg from a wound.

Just curious if you have any other reports from that area? I’m interested to know since no one likes discussing things like this. I do go there to visit my sister. I was born in Tennessee but raised in Ohio.”

    Thanks for sharing . I’ve wondered if, The Predators movies actually came from Sasquatch sightings and they just did what Hollyweird always does and made it their own with a bit more abilities. We know that Dr. Hynek helped Spielberg and it’s said the scene at the end where the lil Aliens come out thr ship was taken from Dr. Hynek’s Blue Book reports.

    The ending of Close Encounters of the Third kind supposedly happened in 1965 and the 12 astronauts stayed on Planet Serpo for 13 years before 7 returned in 1978…

    I’m just 45 minutes north of Knoxville. I have heard that and a lot of other sounds that match Sasquatch sounds. I’ve also seen these things. My experience with these creatures started just like yours.

      Beautiful area Earl D. I use drive through that area a lot in years past as my biggest client has a factory in Rainsville, AL. I often on the way back would park at that sort of turn out on top of Jelico Mtn and get out and started making Whooop sounds.

    If my map reading skills are correct, it looks like this sighting occurred in Rhea County TN which is just south of Wilson county TN. On the bfro website Wilson County rings in as reporting 6 encounters, the highest in the state. There’s also a class B vocalization type encounter recorded on that website. Very cool.

    The sounds these things make are HAUNTING. Did you feel the noise, almost like bass at a concert? Almost like it’s more then sound. Check out “infrasound”, I suspect Sasquatch is able to make this.
