Sasquatch Chronicles Blog

Trevor writes “I have an area with activity that literally has it all. I have had several strange happenings over the years leading up to a very unwanted encounter on October 12th of 2021 that made me with out a doubt believe that there are Bipedal creatures living in the woods. This all Stems years back to my father’s days running around hunting this same property.”

I will also be speaking to Mike. Mike writes “I live in NY and am a 20 year Army veteran. I am currently still on active duty and I am an avid hunter and fisherman. I spent most of my life in the woods hunting and fishing. My knowledge of Sasquatch was limited to in search of tv show and some books I read when I was younger. I moved up to Dutchess County NY from Westchester County NY about 15 years ago. My house backs up to about 5 acres and is surrounded by farms and large patches of woods. There are deer, turkey, squirrels , frogs, fish etc . The property is a 100 year old chicken farm from the early 1900’s. In the back of the property there is an old chicken coop with a creek which runs around the property and is butted up to the 5 acres of woods.(this is relevant for my later experiences)

But my first strange experience wasn’t at my home, it was where I duck hunted in Schuylerville NY on the Battenkill river about 2hrs north of my home. It was early October 2017 and my friend and I were heading out pre-dawn to set up our decoys and head out for a day of duck hunting. The area was a private hunting and fishing club called the Wreck. We were the only ones there that morning, so we loaded our jon boat and headed up the river to our spot. The river was not very wide and was in a ravine about 50 ft high on one side. As we headed up the river ( using a small electric trolling motor) I caught something in my peripheral vision to my right. It was a large rock (size of a watermelon) in mid air coming through the air from the top of the ridge. It hit about 3/4 of the way down the hill then hit the water. My buddy spun around and said” what the hell was that? ” Was that a rock from the hill?” I told him I saw it get launched from the top of the hill and hit the bank and ended up in the water. We scanned the hill but didn’t see anything , the sun was just coming up so it was low light and the woods were dark. We brushed it off and continued on. That day the ducks just weren’t around so we decided to head back in. On the way back right around the spot where the rock hit the water we heard a loud growling scream. We looked at each other and realized we both heard it and had no idea what it was. My buddy said that wasn’t anything he ever heard before.

Fast forward to late fall early winter 2020 at my house in Lagrangeville NY. It was just after sunset and I got a whiff of what I thought was my septic backing up. I opened my kitchen window which looked out towards the old chicken coop and the wood line where the septic field was. I could smell it from the window but it didn’t seem right. I have smelled the septic before but this time it was different. Right about then I heard a loud scream roar type call from the wood line. I’ve heard just about every native animal in my area over the years and this isn’t even close to any of those. It was sustained for several seconds changing in pitch . It started off as a high pitch then got deeper and made the hair on my neck stand up. It sounded like a coyote mixed with a lion and a T-Rex (the T-Rex from the Jurassic Park movie). Once I realized what just happened I remembered my daughter was home. I went upstairs to her room and as soon as I walked in her room she said what the hell was that noise. We talked about it and I decided to report it to the BRFO.

About a month later my wife and daughter came home after dark around 19:00. When they got out of the car from behind that old chicken coop my wife heard banging from the woods. She stopped and then heard what she said sounded like loud heavy footsteps. She said it sounded like something crashing through the woods. It sounded large and the ground shook when it was running. At that point her and my daughter raced into the house. My opinion is they might be feeding and moving through my area. After each incident I went out to look around for any signs of what we experienced.”
