A listener writes “I bought a home in Ohio in December 2018. While moving in I was inside the back of a large uhaul truck while my wife and daughter were carrying in the last of the boxes left in the truck.
It was about 1:30 am we were almost completely done unloading the truck when something let out a loud growl. The growl was loud enough for me to hear it in the back of the truck and draw my immediate attention. My daughter ran into the house and my wife I think wife was too scared to run.she questions me about what that was I told her I had no idea. We decided to finish unloading the truck th next day. Later that night while everyone was sleeping I took my English bulldog out to use the bathroom and smoke a cigarette. It was about 3:30 am. The growl happens again. My dog looks up and heads to the door. I thought good idea so we in.
Over the next few weeks my wife would text me at work saying that the house was haunted. I work nights. She would say that she could hear voices in our bedroom. She would tell me before I would go to work that our dogs would act strange and they would alert and bark a bit, but not really loud like when someone knocks at the door. They would also stare at one of our windows in the living room. When she would go outside to smoke she would get scared and felt like she was being watched. I told her that I would hurry home after work and check out the property around the house from now on.
While one morning checking out the property I found what I call a hide. I showed my wife and she told me go buy a chainsaw and get rid of it. While out there she asked me if the Christmas tree lights worked that were hung up around the pathway around the property. I said I couldn’t get them to work but I will get new ones as soon as possible.
About a week or so afrer I cut out the hide she woke me up drugged me outside and showed me a spot it looks like someone was putting up branches making another hide.
From the time I heard the growl I had made smart remarks to her about big foot and she should do some research into it. She just laughed and I thought basically blew me off.
She took my advice and did some research. She searched for the growl sound and started listening to your show a couple of times. I was a listener before we moved and would watch bigfoot documentaries. She always made fun of me and so would my kids. The more she searched for the growl the more she started to believe in the possibility of their existence.
In late January she woke me up terrified. She was do the dishes looking out the window and she told me she just saw three creatures. I got up not fully clothed and ran outside to look. I didn’t see anything or hear anything. I cam back inside and she started describing them to me. Since then she has been researching the subject.
My daughter made friends with the previous owners daughter through school. One night she spent the night at our house. I asked the question you recommended. Have you ever had anything strange happen on this property or see anything strange. She said yes but didn’t want to say. I told her that I know there are sasquatch on the property. Her mouth dropped open and turned pale white. She described her encounter and described the creature to me.
A week or so after learning about that encounter I was coming home an hour earlier than normal because I had been called in to work a twelve hour shift to cover another employee’s shift. It was still dark outside when I got home. I was really tired cause I went to bed late and went to work early. I had promised my wife that I would walk around the property when I came home every day. I knew she was still sleeping and the kids hadn’t got up to go to school yet. So as most husbands I figured I would just skip my inspection and just say I did my check and didn’t see anything. So I come into the house take off my work boots and go to the kitchen to see if I could find something to eat right quick. I’m standing in front of the sink washing my hands and naturally I looked out the window. I was scanning the back yard which is wooded but there’s no leaves on the trees so l can see quite a ways into the woods. I see this big brown mass. I’m looking and looking at it but can’t figure it out. So i start talking to myself Mike your tired you have sasquatch on the brain cause I was listening to your show at work and finished an episode right before I pulled into the driveway. I swear I could see a face, shoulders, and an arm. It was the same color my wife told me when she saw the three sasquatch a month or so ago. I didn’t feel fear like most people talk about. I think because I talked myself out of seeing what I was looking at. After about two minutes of looking at this thing I heard one of my kids come out of a room upstairs. That snaped my attention to the thought that I better get to the bathroom before one of my girls get to it. In a household of three daughters and a wife bathrooms are almost always in use for whatever reason. So I decided I go to the bathroom and come back and look again if everything looked the same when I got back then it’s my imagination at work. I came back and it didn’t look the same. The big brown mass was gone. If I wasn’t so tired (lazy). I would have walked within feet of where this thing was hunched/ crouched down.
Since then my wife has heard walking outside our house but no hitting on it. I have heard what sounds like maybe small rocks hitting our deck out back. I have set up a high power solar light one my bedroom wall outside. My wife has told me that it has came on quite a few times and that the dogs stair at the windows or some of them will bark whimper or go under the bed.”
