Spoke to the witness last night and she has agreed to come on the show. A listener writes “I was a divorced 26 year old (71now)mother of 2 children ages 5 and 8 years old.

My mother purchased approx 180 acres of wooded land 5 miles from Camdenton, Mo (Lake of the Ozarks ) All dirt roads and only 1 house other than us at the end of our lake road. I had worked hard and used my 5 acres as collateral to build a home for my family.

It was summer and 2 young boy cousins from Illinois were staying with me and my children for a week. While our little home was being framed in me and 4 children were staying in a small 1 bedroom trailer. Nothing but woods close to the home site. This of course was before cell phones and I had no phone. It had just turned dark and all the kids had pjs on. Out of nowhere something started hitting ramming the trailer so hard. Some sounded like boulders. It rocked.

The children were crying. I was in shock. We all huddled together in the bed. Nothing absolutely nothing I could do. This lasted over an hour or more. Now morning. Oh boy. The front door had been bent in Concave. There were large prints around the trailer. I told NO ONE other than my mother. This was mine and the children’s secret until about 45 years later. At a family wedding I was talking to one of the then little boy cousins who is in his 50s now. He said Auntie do you remember??? My daughter who is 50 now also remembers vividly.

The rest of what happen…

We are now living in our home which was being built at the time for two years now when the Bigfoot encounter occurred again. It was winter about 9:00 at night. My 2 children were asleep in their bedrooms. I had fallen asleep on the couch by the wood stove. The front door was about 7 feet from me. The top half of the door was glass with no curtain. I suddenly woke up and saw the creature looking in at me. Let me describe him. He was all bent down looking in the window at me I guess because he had to be at least 9 feet tall and I would say shoulders 41/2 feet wide. The expression on his face was terrifying. Eyes all squinted and a snarled mouth as if he was vocalizing he was lightly haired on his face, and thickly haired on the rest of his body that I could see.

All of this happened in seconds because at my first realization upon waking up and seeing him I immediately took the cover and pulled it over my head and passed out. I don’t know what happened. All I remember is waking up the next morning and realizing immediately the horrifying experience and jumping up and running to my children’s bedrooms each one and yes they were OK. They did not know anything had happened and no I did not tell them what happened to me.

Years later my daughter told me her brother would come in her bedroom to sleep on the floor because he saw what appeared to be red eyes in the big tree outside his bedroom window. At the time he only told me he was scared to sleep in his bedroom with a thin curtain on the window and asked me to put a real heavy curtain over the window. As the years past and more people populated our area I have not had any more encounters.”
