Researchers Encounter ‘Bigfoot’ in Missouri, say it Made Donkey Sounds

Mo. — A man in central Missouri on Tuesday said he and another person witnessed an animal that matched other reports of a Sasquatch.

Bigfoot researcher Randy Savig, 50, told Cryptozoology News he has been investigating the phenomenon for about 3 years.

Savig has focused his efforts to finding audible evidence of the existence of the cryptid.

On Aug. 12, he says, a visual encounter took place in the area he and his friend were investigating.

“Bernie has been my research partner now for over 2 years.  It makes night ops much safer if you have someone else in the woods with you. My friend had been watching something for about 20 minutes in the shadow. It was about 400 feet from camp,” the Missourian explains. “I could see it too. It looked like it was swaying side to side trying to stay behind some leaves.”

Savig believes the animal noticed their presence and became immediately curious.

“I did some stuff to try to draw it out so we can see it better. It seemed to know we busted it and could see it.”

The men said the animal matched the typical “Sasquatch” physical features described on most reports.

According to Savig, who only presented audio of the purported encounter, the creature then began emitting a series of sounds that resembled primate vocalizations.

“The whoop vocals came from about 30 degrees to the right of the subject we were watching,” he says. “They almost seemed to be an alarm. With the audio contamination from the tree frogs and the bugs this time of the year, recording good clear audio is next to impossible, but if you use headphones to listen to this it is easier to hear what is going on.”

But these vocals reportedly became something else. As the two men were closely monitoring the being behind the bushes, the “donkey” sounds began.

“Odd. It was as if it was attempting to mimic a donkey. There are mules on a farm about a mile and a half ,as the crow files, but really sound off from audio we got from them before.”

The two men said that the animal then “dropped down” and that it became “too dark to see anymore”.

“With the subject being about 400 feet away and in the shadows of the tree line we were not able to see any details except the defined silhouette.  The shape matched the reported and observed anatomy of the critter. We did a knock experiment last spring to try and see how far knocks can be heard, and Bernie was knocking on a tree in the same area.  Using his height as reference I would say this subject was 5 1/2 to 6 /1/2 feet tall.  So I do suspect it was a juvenile.”

Savig tells Cryptozoology News that they were not able to record images of the subject.

“The main problem was that this was at dusk.  Video was near impossible without a high-dollar set up, which isn’t possible for me to get. Bernie said he had been seeing something enter and leave that area for about 20 minutes.  Each time it came and left in the same direction. It wasn’t until a firm silhouette could be seen that he realized that it wasn’t just shadow play and told me about it.  That is when this audio clip starts.  He wanted to get another set of eyes on it,” he said.

Some people believe the use of cameras are a hindrance to the discovery of Bigfoot.

Such is the case of the Australian man in charge of the Yowie Listening Project, who believes the creature to be so elusive that the only possible way to capture evidence of its existence is be to use an audio recorder.

“I can’t stress how highly elusive these creatures are. They won’t dance for apples under an IR light,” the man, looking for anonymity, told Cryptozoology News last February.

And Savig, knowing he can’t prove the sounds he has been recording for year come from an actual Bigfoot, says he has classified the audio as “unknown”. Although, the reported visual encounter will most likely present the researcher with a new take on the subject.

Video: UFO Shocks Jet Passenger in Italy

ITALY — A man was able to capture the moment when a cigar-shaped UFO made an appearance right outside the passenger plane he was aboard.

The footage, taken by a Swedish native named David on his way home from Italy, was posted to YouTube Thursday by a woman by the name of Isabel Eriksson.

“David was shocked by a UFO he saw through the window of the plane on the way back home from Italy,” said the woman Friday evening, who has been a YouTube member for only four days.

The 20-second-long video shows a wing of the plane seen through one of the windows as David spots a cigar-shaped object flying at a steady speed. The unidentified object is flying very close to the plane’s wing. The object then goes below the jet’s level right before the video stops.

 

Some people immediately commented on the footage, blaming chemtrails for the flying anomaly.

“It is visible at all times when you fly,” said Swedish YouTube user MisterMajister.

In late June, a Peruvian man and his son released a video showing what they referred to as a “UFO fleet” that looked very similar to the Phoenix Lights.

The state of Arizona experienced one of the most known mass sightings of UFOs in 1997 when thousands of witnesses reported seeing a large triangle-shaped object in Phoenix. Former Arizona governor Fife Symington initially mocked the incident at a press conference but later admitted that what he saw was “something that defied logic” and that it even “challenged” his reality.

In July 2014, a Philadelphia Temple University professor said that aliens are already living in our planet and that they are forcing human women to raise their hybrid babies. Three months earlier, former president Bill Clinton surprised the Jimmy Kimmel show audience when he made a comment regarding the possibility of extraterrestrial visitation.

A book written by NASA last year also suggested that aliens could have already visited Earth.

Former White House Counselor for Climate Change and Energy Policy John Podesta in a tweet last February expressed his regrets at not securing UFO disclosure prior to stepping down from his job.

john podesta ufo tweetThree weeks later, President Obama during a Jimmy Kimmel show appearance said, in an apparent joke, that “aliens exercise strict control” over humans. The President later denied any knowledge of the unproven creatures.

‘Bigfoot’ Sighting in England, Claims Local Man

A man in England was surprised by a monkey-like animal he says came out of the woods in the county of Suffolk.

file0002022774135

Bury St Edmunds resident Geoff Knights says he was looking for “big cat signs” in the Offton woods, near Stowmarket, when the creature showed up on Aug. 14.

“I have seen one big cat and several pug marks too,” Knights, also known as Crabtree, said. “Then I heard it as clear as day.”

Reportedly, he began hearing primate vocalizations and “crashing” sounds coming from the thick vegetation.

“I heard as clear as day. A monkey goes woow woow. Then I turned and saw it.”

Knights reports that he saw an animal matching the physical features of a gorilla mixed with the “general shape of a man”.

“It was a similar colour to a chimp,” he explained. “It walked fast with its legs like ours and not like a chimp would. It knocked branches aside as it went along with its arms. They looked to be at least a third longer. It was probably 5′ 8″ tall.”

The creature, he says, then disappeared back into the woods.

“I became very panicky. Now I am 20 stone and pretty fearless but I just needed to go.”

Knights says he is very confused with what he saw but that he is sure about what it looked like, although he is reluctant to call it a “shug monkey”.

“I keep running things through my head… this is England, not the Pacific Northwest. The only other answer would be an escaped bipedal, an ape, monkey or gibbon, but it didn’t look like anyone on their own,” he explains, adding that he also wondered if it could be a “man-made hybrid ape”.

48-year-old retired cook Deborah Hatswell knows what that feels like.

“It’s always hard at first just coming to terms with what you saw. It does get easier tho over time, but it leaves you with a need to know more,” she told Knights.

In 1982, she and a classmate had decided to skip high school when they came across a similar creature in Salford.

“A huge ape-man type thing leant forward and just looked at me, from about mid-chest I could see him and he was in my mind a monster,” Hatswell told Cryptozoology News.

Crabtree, who has worked in those woods before, says this area has been “left alone” for about 30 years.

And, as the man continues to try to process what he saw that summer day, he says he hopes he doesn’t get ridiculed for sharing this sighting.

“I plan on going back soon to get measurements,” he said.

There were no pictures or videos taken of the incident.

Adam Bird, founder of the British Bigfoot Research organization, told Cryptozoology News on Saturday that Knight’s sighting is “very impressive” and that he will be carrying out a field investigation soon.

‘Water Monster’ Spotted in Oregon

FAIRVIEW, Ore. — A 23-year-old believes an unknown creature is lurking the waters of the Columbia River.

Taylor E. Bagnell, a computer technician in Multnomah County, said on Monday he was fishing from a boat ramp dock at the Chinook Landing Marine Park when he and two other people pointed out the oddity on Aug. 19.

“It happened between 9:35 pm and 9:45 pm, when the majority of the last boats had came in,” he told Cryptozoology News.

The Oregon man says that he thought it was a log or a sea otter at first until it began moving.

“It drifted in slowly about 50 yards away, but then it swayed a bit and there were several sections on the topside, submerged, and it did it again turning sideways.”

The unidentified animal, he says, had a black and white “stripped long fins” on its back. They were only able to see it partially.

The sighting reportedly lasted about one minute.

“It caused me creepy feeling goosebumps… another witness to my left shrilled as it submerged in the water, section by section, like some kinda alien,” explained Bagnell.

He says he is sure that what he saw was not a sturgeon or a “freshwater crock”.

“Nothing really would have freaked me out more to have me guessing and reporting this. I haven’t seen anything like this before. Like in a tandem, one by one, just boop-boop-boop, so close right in the water… I was scared,” Bagnell said. “It looked out of this world.”

He did not provide any pictures of the purported animal, but he says he went with a camera the next day at about the same time and was only able to see a few sea otters.

The Chinook Landing Marine Park is a 67-acre area mainly dedicated to boating activities.

In late July, a Texas woman said she had encountered a similar creature while on a boat on the Sabine River.

Bristol Man: I Watched Ape Man Eating Food

BRISTOL, United Kingdom — A Bristol resident says he witnessed an ape-like creature as it ate a piece of food with what he believes were improvised eating utensils.

58-year-old Harry, a retired man in Somerset county who provided a last name but chose to remain anonymous, told Cryptozoology News Wednesday that he was walking through the Leigh Woods Nature Reserve on Aug. 17 when the event took place.

“I usually take my dog, but lately I have avoided taking her there because she has been getting very skittish for some unknown reason,” says Harry.

Suddenly, according to the man, he began hearing noises as if someone was “snapping twigs” and “making squeaky sounds”.

“I thought it may have been a deer, so I went off the path to look,” he recalls. “This is when I saw this strange ape creature. It was sat in the brambles and it was digging in the earth with a twig.”

Reportedly, the alleged animal was doing this for about 5 minutes, then picked something up and began eating it. Harry believes this was a raw piece of meat.

“Then it got another twig and was picking pieces of meat from its teeth with it.”

But Harry was also aware that the strange-looking being appeared to be “communicating with something”.

“It kept looking left and was talking to something, and I thought I heard movement from where it kept looking. When I say talk it more grunted and squeaked,” he says. “at one point it started doing something with the twigs, crossing them over on top of each other, like he was weaving something. All in all I watched this thing for 25 minutes. It was only when it stood and walked off that I left. It stood up, grabbed a large tree branch and snapped it off quite easily, and it then leaned it against another tree, then it walked off and I never saw it again.”

The Somerset resident says he was about 200 yards away and managed to discern the physical features of the creature.

“When it stood up I’d say it was about 6 feet tall. It was old looking and it had a grey skin. I could see that it had human features, same sort of face but it looked more ape-like.  Broader nose and cheeks and jaw that jutted out to look like it was curved. Looked like a prehistoric man from that Land That Time Forgot film, the old Doug MCclure film. It was covered in grey hair, with black streaks in it. Mostly grey though,” said Harry, adding that it also had “small breasts type things” but that it looked like a male because there was “something” in the crotch area.

The man explains that even though he was confused about what he was witnessing, he is sure that it wasn’t an animal or a homeless person.

“It wasn’t a horse or dog or anything like this. It was like an ape man. It was like a man living wild but like a Neanderthal or something similar. I have heard of Bigfoot, but it wasn’t like one of those, like the giant wrestler type of thing. It was covered in hair and it was natural hair, enough that you could see the skin underneath. The build wasn’t huge either like the Bigfoot in the US, it was quite lean, but strongly built. I have tried to convince myself it was a monkey or gorilla but it did not look like that. It was like a prehistory man, like Java man. I searched for Bigfoots in the UK and came across your articles on these sightings so I thought I would share this with you.”

Harry claims he was not “scared or worried” because the creature “seemed friendly”. Although, he adds, it didn’t get a chance to see the man.

“I am not interested in fame or being in TV,” he said. “I don’t understand what it was and not sure who to talk to.”

The man said he did not provide photographic evidence because he wasn’t carrying a camera or a phone.

The report comes one week after another British man claimed to have witnessed a similar creature in the county of Suffolk which reportedly took place only three days prior to Harry’s encounter.

The Woodwoose, also known as the Wodewose or the Wild Man, is a mythical creature present in European literature from the Middle Ages. Critics believe that inaccurate accounts of possible apes written by explorers and travelers in that time period may have been responsible for the creation of the myth.

Formed in 1909, the Leigh Woods is a 500-acre national nature reserve containing a rare species of Sorbus trees and a unique Arabis scabra known as the Bristol Rockress. The area is also notorious for a series of violent deaths that occurred in 1857 and 1948.

Man Chased by Aliens on Nevada Road: They Were Dancing

WELLS, Nev. — A motorist claims he was chased by a group of “grey aliens” and that he later found them dancing under the street lights of a Nevada town in Elko County.

aliens nevada ufo

The anonymous man on Friday said that he was traveling from Idaho to Wells, Nevada, when he noticed a light behind his vehicle.

“It was around 2 a.m. and I was by myself in my truck with my dog,” he reported to the Mutual UFO Network. “The dog began growling. I saw the small light coming behind me and I wondered what a motorcycle was doing out at night. There was no noise,” he added about the 2005 encounter.

When he looked back, he recalls, the unidentified light disappeared, coming back moments later.

“It did this several times and the more I looked at it when it was far behind the truck, the faster it came right behind the truck.”

The eyewitness says he felt “very scared” because he knew this was something “unnatural”, adding that the chase lasted for several hours and that he tried to take shelter behind a truck driver.

As he reached Wells, he stopped at a casino to use the restroom. That’s when he says he spotted the five creatures under the street lamp.

“They were skinny grays, with big heads. They were dancing in the light. I rubbed my eyes and thought I had lost my mind but then looked again and they were still there,” he said.

The man claims that even though he revealed the UFO sighting to his family, he never felt comfortable enough to let them know about the “little people” until this year.

“I saw the orbs on Ancient Aliens and those little people that other people have seen.”

Reports of strange lights and orbs, referred to as undines by paranormal investigators, are becoming more frequent as the majority of the population is now able to carry their own camera in their pockets. Other researchers associate these sightings to extraterrestrial activity. The decrease in price of surveillance systems has also been a major contributor to the documentation of these type of anomalies.

The Idaho man did not present a video or photograph of he alleged incident. It is not yet clear whether possible footage from the casino cameras will be made available to the public.

“I am grateful that other people are telling what they have seen so I could open up about it too, because some people might think that you are loosing your mind,” he said.

Wells is a small city in northeast Nevada located between Interstate 80 and U.S. Route 93 and has a population of 1,300.

In early May, an Arizona family released a video where a series of unidentified lights they believed to be UFOs chased their vehicle while traveling on a quiet road.

Fergus Waffles, a 46-year-old geography teacher at a Singapore school, today said that he was walking his dog in the Istana Woodneuk area when he spotted the alleged creature earlier this morning.

“I was walking in the woods with my dog near an abandoned house at about 5:50 a.m.,” Waffles told Cryptozoology News. “I peered inside the window of the house and saw what appeared to be a winged humanoid hanging from a door frame.My dog saw the creature and remained completely still and silent while staring in its direction,” he added.

Waffles claims the humanoid was still with just its chest “moving up and down as if it were breathing”.

“I was very startled at first, but the creature didn’t notice me because as soon as I saw it I took cover behind a nearby bush.”

The teacher said the unknown being was about 6 feet tall with an approximated 10-foot wingspan.

“It was hard to tell because the wings were wrapped around its body, similar to a sleeping bat,” he said. “It was black and had webbed wings similar to a bat. It had a human head but slightly more round and it had hair. It was like the Mothman.”

The encounter reportedly took about 15 seconds before the man left the area.

Istana Woodneuk, an abandoned royal palace originally owned by Johor Sultan Abu Bakar ibni Daing Ibrahim, is considered a “haunted area” by the locals.

Encounters with flying humanoids around the world have been reported throughout the years and some people believe them to be “angels” or “demons”.

Last year, Nick Malicki, who calls himself the Nephilim Hunter, released footage of what he says was a “Nephilim” creature attached to the roof of an undisclosed cave in Australia.

The Mothman, a ghostly winged humanoid, was reportedly first seen on November, 12, 1966 in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. The original report stated that five men were digging a grave at the local cemetery when they spotted the cryptid. Three days later, two different couples reported seeing a “flying human” with red-glowing eyes chasing their vehicles.

According to cryptozoological literature, the creature is believed to be able to predict upcoming events that have the potential to impact human life. The Mothman Prophecies, written by parapsychologist author John Keel in 1975, painstakingly describes the events that lead to the collapse of the Silver Bridge. The story was later brought to the big screen by director Mark Pellington and starring Richard Gere on a film with the book’s name.

College student Mildred Wan said on Tuesday that he was scouting the location for a student film at an abandoned hospital near Changi.

“I was walking out of the hospital doors having explored the surroundings,” he told Cryptozoology News. While I was inside, I had heard a noise which was similar to a large monkey rustling around the tree tops.”

Wan says what happened next was “one of the most terrifying experiences” of his life.

“As I left the building, I saw the creature. It appeared to be halfway up one of the trees with huge wings stretched out from its body, which appeared to be mostly human.”

Then, says the student, the “animal” emitted a “high-pitched shriek” so he ran away in order to get out of the area.

“I felt as if the creature was hunting me, or else was surprised to see me in its territory. It seemed to look in my direction before I ran off. When I turned around, it had completely disappeared,” he explained.

Wan described the creature as a 6-feet-tall winged humanoid covered by a black “leathery skin”. Its head was rounded and looked “vaguely humanoid” although, he explains, it had a nose and a moth that appeared to be full of “sharp fang teeth”.

“I was unable to see its eyes properly because it only appeared for a short amount of time. I have never seen any other animal or human like it,” said Wan.

He says that even though he had a camera with him due to the work he was doing for the future film, by the time the humanoid being showed up he had already packed his equipment.

The student’s claims comes one day after a Singapore teacher reported seeing a similar creature while walking his dog near Istana Woodneuk three days after Wan’s alleged sighting. The teacher maintained it looked like the infamous “Mothman”.

The area of Changi is home to an air and naval base and a prison formerly used as a WWII POW camp.

Two People Encounter ‘Monster’ at Lake Champlain

CHARLOTTE, Vt. — Two people in Chittenden County on Saturday said they saw a dinosaur-like creature swimming in the waters of Lake Champlain.

champ lake monster

71-year-old writer Lisa Alther told Cryptozoology News she was with her friend Ina Danko, a 72-year-old school superintendent, when the animal showed up on Sept. 1.

“We were riding in a jet boat across from Charlotte. The water was glassy and there weren’t other boats around. We saw what first appeared to be a swimmer some 50 feet away,” explains Alther. “Ina saw it first and was alarmed thinking it was a swimmer too far out from shore for safety.”

The surprise came when the two women realized what they were looking at had a head that wasn’t human.

“Its head was attached to a long body. It began making swirling waves that broke with a white froth.”

They reportedly observed the unidentified being for about 3 minutes. As the creature went under water, recalls Alther, the swirling continued for a few minutes until the water became “glassy” again.

The women described the creature as having a dark and long snake-like body with a roundish head. Alther estimates the animal was about 30-feet-long. They were not able to see whether the creature had scales on its skin.

“The water was too stirred up for us to tell,” says the writer.

But Alther says she saw this same creature a few decades ago. She says she thinks the animal could be a plesiosaur, an order of Mesozoic marine reptiles believed to have gone extinct about 66 million years ago. However, continuous reports describing a similar creature have made some researchers wonder whether some individuals could have been able to survive in places like Loch Ness in Scottland, Lake Champlain in North America and the Okanagan Lake in British Columbia.

Plesiosaur

Alther explains that the first time she spotted the alleged dinosaur, also known as Champ, she was with her family at Fort Cassin.

“It was 1980. We were where the Otter Creek flows into Lake Champlain, in Ferrisburgh. There were 14 of us, my parents, ex-husband, brothers and sister and their spouses. We heard waves crashing on the rocks along the shore and ran out of the cottage.  Maybe 15 feet off the shore we saw a long, dark, snake-like creature winding through the water, so that 3 or 4 humps broke the surface in a rolling movement.  The skin appeared to be scaly and the light reflected jaggedly off the scales.  The wake was quite large and broke like small ocean waves.  It wound along the shore and then headed out to deeper water,” she said. “I feel the creature Ina and I saw was similar to the one I saw with my family in the 1980’s. I’ve extensively researched large marine creatures past and present. I think the animal we all saw most closely resembles a water reptile called a plesiosaur.”

Last year, a Canadian man released a series of photographs containing what he claimed to be the Opogogo monster.

In August, a park ranger at Lake Tele, Republic of Congo, said he had spotted a dinosaur-like monster and was able to watch it for over 5 minutes.

Lake Champlain is a freshwater lake located between the states of Vermont, New York and part of Quebec in Canada.

SINGAPORE — A woman claims she saw a creature that looked like a “tall man with wings” at an abandoned house in Singapore.

file000840097810

54-year-old avid birdwatcher Alice Yimdale said she was looking for birds near Dempsey Hill when she spotted the being inside the abandoned building last Sunday.

“It was 2:30 p.m. when my husband and I went to the forest looking for birds, I do love a good bird watching session,” she told Cryptozoology News. “This is why My husband and I live in Singapore, a hub of beautiful birds. We like this place because, unlike our house, it is quiet and tranquil.”

Yimdale reports that as they came near an empty building, she heard a “loud fluttering noise”.

“I was confused, so I decided to investigate… this is when I came across the thing.”

The woman said the being looked like a tall man with an “enormous” wingspan.

“I’d say around 9 to 10 feet. My husband says it was longer,” she explains. “It had a very thin body.”

Reportedly, the creature appeared to be barely moving and could have been a male or a female.

The couple maintained they had never seen anything like it before and that the 3-minute-long sighting was a “big scary but exciting”.

Cryptozoology News asked the birdwatchers regarding the lack of photographic evidence of the alleged incident but there was not an immediate response.

This is is the third winged humanoid sighting in Singapore reported this week.

The Mothman, a ghostly winged humanoid, was reportedly first seen on November 12, 1966 in Point Pleasant, West Virginia.

Oxnard, Calif. — A man on Monday released footage of what he thinks could be a “grey alien” peeking through the bathroom’s window of his home in Southern California.

The Oxnard resident, whose name wasn’t made public, said he was washing his face after shaving when he noticed the alleged entity.

“I noticed through the mirror something was looking at me. Every time I turned around to see it directly, it would lower the head,” he reports.

The man, who reported the incident to the Mutual UFO Network, said he knew the being wasn’t human and was afraid to go outside to investigate.

“So every time I turned my back away from the window right the mirror the image would appear. I tried to turn fast enough to catch it, but it would move. So I got an idea and had to face my back against the window and the camera off the mirror, and pretend like I was finishing up my face cleaning. And it reappeared… I was able to get the reflection off the mirror.”

The 15-second-long video shows a shirtless man holding an older iPhone 4 as he videotapes what appears to be a white ghostly humanoid shape moving outside the restroom’s window. The purported peeping “alien” can be seen hiding and reappearing multiple times.

The Californian claims he didn’t think of the anomaly being a grey alien until recently, when he reviewed this video purported to be taken in 2013.

“Maybe I’m wrong and it’s something else. I hope the video is good enough for the world to see,” he explains, adding that he has come face to face with these creatures before and that they communicated with him using a language that sounded like “popping bubbles”.

“One day the world will hear my story and see my videos,” he said.

The city of Oxnard, located in Ventura County, has a population of 204,000 and is part of the Greater Los Angeles area.

Last June, a newspaper deliveryman in Sarasota, Florida, released similar footage he had captured at a cemetery.

KUALA LUMPUR — A woman on Thursday said she was startled by something that looked like a person with “bat wings” in the capital of Malaysia.

Lea Foo, a 27-year-old freelance journalist, told Cryptozoology News that she was in the residential area of Bukit Tunku when she had a close encounter with the creature last Tuesday.

“I was contracted by a local paranormal magazine to write an article regarding Pontianaks, or the ghostly spirits of women who died during childbirth. A particular abandoned house is well known to be haunted by these ghosts,” Foo explained, who also claims to have worked as a holistic therapist prior to starting her journalistic career. “However, I ended up sighting something completely different,” she continued.

The woman says that as she walked deeper into the building, she heard a “dry rustling noise” coming from the room ahead. With the help of a flashlight, she reportedly ventured into the room to find out the source of the ruckus.

“I was terrified by what I saw. There were two glowing red eyes, staring back at me. Then it began screeching shrilly, bolted up, expanded its huge wings, and jerked its head menacingly towards me.”

Foo claims she was so frightened that she dropped her flashlight and couldn’t see much as she managed to hide in a corner.

“At this point, it was pitch black. I kept quiet… I could hear the heavy breathing of this creature. I heard a flapping noise and felt a huge gust of wind. After I was sure that I couldn’t hear breathing and that the creature was gone, I stood up and ran out of the house,” she recalls.

She reported that the sighting lasted about two minutes but she wasn’t able to use her camera at the time.

“Yes, I was too frightened to think of recording the creature. I did notice a foul stench, like the smell of a rotting carcass.”

Foo said the creature had “the frame of a man”, with two legs and two arms, and stood at about 10 feet tall. Its body, she says, was covered in a black leathery skin.

“It had enormous wings, like the wings of a bat, but larger. It was extremely thin and sinewy and its eyes were human-shaped, but glowed red in light,” said Foo.

And she believes the unidentified being could be Mothman itself, adding that it could be the same one reported to have been seen in the neighboring country.

“I had read several of your articles regarding Mothman sightings in Singapore… perhaps the Mothman is in Kuala Lumpur too, which is relatively nearby.”

This is the fourth “Mothman” sighting reported in Southeast Asia in less than two weeks.

Bukit Tunku,  formerly known as Bukit Kenny or Kenny Hill, is considered by residents and paranormal investigators to be one of the top haunted places in Malaysia.

Kuala Lumpur is home to the Menara Berkembar Petronas, the tallest twin towers in the world.

Man Films ‘Bigfoot’ in Kentucky Woods

Ky. — A man released a video on Friday containing what he calls a Bigfoot in an undisclosed wooded area of Kentucky.

Kirk Stokes, who has been sharing his findings since 2012, says he captured the low quality images with his cellphone.

“This was a creepy area, I filmed the annubis looking Dogman here before,” the amateur researcher explained. “My only regret that the Bigfoot was so far out,” he added.

The 1-minute-long video shows a brown human-like figure standing behind a tree. As Stokes moves the camera around, the head of the purported individual starts moving. The audio lacks the usual animal activity heard on some of his other videos, such as birds and insects, although the time of the recording was not specified.

“I put the original part first, so you could see how far away I had to zoom, but then I tried to enlarge the rest but this thing head was swiveling… it had to be big,” says Stokes, adding that he was about 200 yards away from the subject.

The videographer claims most of his videos are uncut and unedited because, he says, that way people can see it as he saw it.

It didn’t take long for YouTube users to comment on the video, some immediately pointing out the low quality of the images, uploaded at a mere 360p.

“Can someone donate a decent camera to Kirk, seems like a lot of this activity could be filmed much clearer and with more zoom,” says Rivercarper01.

And Stokes says that’s the best he could do with his current cellphone, explaining that the footage was a “fair shot” given the circumstances.

Either way, he says, there is an animal there and it’s moving. But then, as another YouTube user points out, why didn’t Stokes walk toward the supposed creature to get a better shot?

“It wouldn’t have been wise to walk all that way to them… I was by myself and I never go armed,” replies the Kentuckian.

But what he says he is certain that it was definitely an animal and “not a canine” such as a “dog, wolf, coyote or fox”.

Stokes says he started his YouTube channel to show the different cryptids he thinks inhabit Kentucky.

“I do it to show, I’m not trying to go viral, I’ve had shots that should have though,” he said.

Kentucky has had a fair share of recent “Bigfoot” sightings.

Last year, a woman claimed to have seen the creature in the middle of a road next to a crew of workers. A week earlier, a man camping with his family at Kentucky’s Taylorsville Lake said he was confronted by the unproven animal.

BEDFORD, Va. — A Virginia woman claims she saw a pair of Bigfoot creatures near a property in Bedford County.

The 59-year-old woman, a retired Bedford resident who provided a full name but asked for anonymity, told Cryptozoology News she was driving west on State Route 43 when she came across the couple on Sept. 9. She claims the two animals were next to a mail box at a specific address that was omitted for privacy reasons.

“It was just outside of Bedford, 11:38 p.m., it was next to the mail box for -omitted address- on 43, where there is a gravel poured drive,” she explained.

She says she initially mistook the purported cryptid for a deer and that, as her vehicle approached them, she quickly realized she was looking at something else.

“That was no deer… it was much taller, about 6 feet from the hips down. It appeared the Mom, I assume, since there was a baby with it, put the baby down and was bending over for rocks. At that time, the baby looked right at me.

The woman described it as a 3-feet-tall  “furry creature” with a brown nose.

“It hit the mom at mid thigh… It looked just like a Wookiee,” she said.

The Wookies are a fictional species of bipeds in the Star Wars world first appearing on Episode IV: A New Hope in 1977.

The Virginia resident says the smaller creature appeared to be surprised to see her.

“I guess we look like aliens to them.”

Reportedly, she went to the spot of the sighting next day and found a series of footprints that she says led her into the woods.

“There was a path worn in that direction. There were three prints, with about a 36 inch stride.  The first print you come upon is the best, prints are difficult to produce in gravel, but the first one is in fine gravel.  There are two circles next to each other where it appeared the mom put the baby down.”

The woman said she reported the sighting to authorities but that they didn’t bother to come to check the area.

“The deputy who took my information said he had never heard of such in his 10 years of working as a deputy,” she said.

Back in February, another Virginia woman came forward revealing her alleged encounter with a similar creature decades earlier.

In 2014, a man released a series of photographs that showed what he called a non-blurry “Bigfoot” on top of a dead tree at a Virginia lake.

In 1986, two men claimed to have been attacked by what they described as a black gorilla near Cacapon, in the contiguous state of West Virginia.

Bedford, formerly known as Liberty, became a town in 1839 and has a population of 7,000.

‘I Worked for the DoD’, Reveals Virginia Woman who Saw ‘Baby Bigfoot’

BEDFORD, Va. — A woman who claimed she saw a “baby Bigfoot” and its “mother” revealed on Wednesday that she had worked for the United States Department of Defense prior to her retirement and she added new details about the alleged sighting.

1436326633cwg1x

“I worked every DOD branch with a secret clearance, active within 10 years. I have seen some crazy stuff, but this takes the cake,” the woman, who had previously provided a full name, told Cryptozoology News.

She maintained that she does not “indulge” in alcohol or any type of drugs and that her eyesight, except for reading, is still “very good”.

The former agent is still certain that what she saw on Sept. 9 were two animals that resembled other Bigfoot eyewitness accounts reported around the country.

“The mom had to have seen me because I drove up on them. After she got away from the road headed toward the woods, she put the baby down, after about four steps,” she explained. “There is no way this was a bear, I know bears and have seen them in the wild and this was no bear!”

When questioned about the possibility of the sighting being a pair of kids testing their Star Wars costumes for the upcoming Halloween, she immediately discarded it, explaining that a “normal human” would have difficulty making the long strides with such garments, and that the purported mother was “gliding through them with ease”.

“There are no houses occupied in the area, the property the mom was entering is like a state preserve, and you can see the wide worn path through the woods and mom was headed toward. I think this is a regular path for them based on the way the weeds are beat back. Plus the area is full of fruit orchards, easy food.”

She also added new physical details about the creatures, which she says had a “light, brownish-red hair on the lower half hips down and dark hair up”.

“But I never got a good look at the upper half of the mom. I believe when she put the baby down she was collecting rocks. I think that is the reason she put the baby down, or why not keep moving?”

The Virginian woman had reported in a previous statement that the “baby” had clearly noticed her approaching them in her vehicle, but she also believes that the “mother” was aware of her presence.

“She knew I saw her and she saw me. I sensed her fear, or mine, it was scary,” she said. “I did feel as though it was trying to communicate with me. I know stopping would have been a bad idea and I never slowed down.”

And she says she has plans to come back to the area to further investigate the incident.

“Today, I had my yard man check it out and here are his texts: ‘You could still see the imprint of the foot pretty clearly, very freaky! There was definitely a trail larger animals have been traveling along.  Way too cool.’ I want to make a cast of the footprint, but unsure what material to use,” she said, “I have several photographs and I would be glad to forward them”.

Texas Man Claims Scuffle with Alien Creature: ‘I Hit One’

BELTON, Texas —  A man begging for help dealing with a series of reported “alien encounters” at his home in Bell County says he had a scuffle with one of the entities.

The man showed his frustration last Tuesday at the Mutual UFO Network website, on the the same day he reportedly suffered the injuries from the fight with the “alien” creature. In what appears to be the website’s long standing protocol, the eyewitness’ name or contact information were not immediately disclosed.

“You talked to my wife before and asked her if I ate after 9 p.m.,” said the man, addressing an unnamed investigator working for the organization. “She told you the truth as I do, because I stay up all night long. You did not ask her if she had any problems herself with this.”

The man continues his brief mysterious message saying that he couldn’t sleep because his wife “had kept him up” claiming there was someone “touching her” or “opening the closet’s door”.

“She would yell out to me while I was in the living room and then tell me what had happened,” he explained.

The person writing the report went on to express his discontent at the way the organization, founded in 1969, was handling the couple’s alleged repeated alien kidnappings.

“You ignored me when I told you about my abduction, and now it seems that it is happening again. As it was dark, they tried to get me again, I fought back and they left after I hit one.”

The reported injuries included “white marks” on his wrists and blood on his hands and forearms.

“It shows that I have been tied down.”

And it appears that the man is now giving up on his efforts trying to obtain further replies from the research organization.

“If you do not believe me, that is fine. I will go to someone else for help,” he said.

He did not provide a description of the supposed entities.

But reports of aliens getting physical with humans are nothing new. Back in May, a woman in Freehold, New Jersey, claimed that a “reptilian humanoid” using some sort of “circular energy” tool had knocked her out to steal her watch as she tried to fight back to no avail.

The city of Belton sits 60 miles north to Austin and 42 miles south to Waco and has a current population of 19,000.

Australian Captures Images of ‘Bigfoot’

AUSTRALIA — A man in Queensland released a series of photographs Sunday containing what he calls a Bigfoot creature.

1407531713u0184

Researcher Jason Heal, also known as Leechman, says he has been interested in the cryptid for a few years now.

“That is my nickname, from Leeches sticking to me from the rain forest & bush,” he says. “Cryptozoology has become a very big part of my life.”

Heal claims the animal was about 160 feet away near a tree located on a “real sloppy spot”.

“I did video, but the way my hands were shaking around didn’t do the video any justice. So I decided to photo them.”

He then put together the photographs on a video format and uploaded the file to YouTube. The pictures show parts of the body and head of something that resembles a dark-haired primate, such as gorilla. It appears that the subject is moving around the vegetation throughout the images.

The animal, says Heal, was watching him for a while before disappearing into the forest.

“I would have eye contact for a good 5 minutes, then it was behind the tree… that’s last I seen Yowie there,” he explained.

Some YouTube users left their comments on the video, pointing out “Yowie’s eyes” on the photographs as well as an additional individual they said could be a “baby Yowie” next to the bigger one.

Yowie, otherwise known as the Australian Bigfoot, is a monkey-like cryptid portrayed in the Aboriginal mythology and purportedly living in the Australian forests. Like his primate cousin, it is purported to be a curious and highly intelligent creature. Bears and primates are not native to the Australian wilderness.

The Australian man has been trying to show proof of the reputed creature since he began the research in 2012. He says he has looked for the animal across most of Queensland and New South Wales National Parks.

“I have seen Yowies with my own eyes… smelled Yowies, heard Yowies, seen many of their footprints, tree and wood knocking, tree breaks, tee pees.”

In 2014, Heal shared a controversial video allegedly showing a Yowie eating apples just a few feet away from the camera.

The footage was immediately disputed by skeptics and Bigfoot enthusiasts, accusing it of being a hoax. Heal has always defended the authenticity of the images.

One of their critics, who spoke with Cryptozoology News on condition of anonymity back in February, says we should carefully consider the video. He is also a Yowie researcher dedicated to collect audio out of northern Queensland.

“I do not support the alleged Yowie video. I am aware of the authors and wish no association with them. I can’t stress how highly elusive these creatures are. They won’t dance for apples under an IR light,” the man said.

Heal, however, has always defended the authenticity of the footage.

SINGAPORE —  A 46-year-old teacher said Tuesday he came across two small winged humanoids in Singapore, just a month later after claiming to have seen a similar creature in the same area.

Fergus Thomas, who teaches geography at a school in the southernmost tip of continental Asia and had originally used a nickname to report his first sighting, told Cryptozoology News he was coming back to the same location where he had claimed to have spotted the creature in late August when he encountered the two little creatures last Saturday.

“I had returned to the site of my original sighting once again, but what I saw was much more than I had expected,” he said. “I looked into the window of the abandoned house that I visited when I first saw Mothman and what I saw was what appeared to be a pair of Mothman-like creatures,” he added.

Reportedly, he observed the beings handling “sticks” and “rocks” scattered on the ground in what appeared to be some sort of game.

“They seemed to be ‘playing’,” he explains. “It seemed like they were also attempting to fly, however it seemed they were not yet fully developed enough to have acquired this skill.”

Thomas reports the sighting lasted about 3 minutes as it was interrupted by a “distant shrill scream” he believes was an adult Mothman.

“I heard the rusting of leaves… the scream seemed inhuman.”

He described the small creatures has being about 3 feet tall and having a wingspan of approximately 4 feet. He did not provide further details about their physical appearance, such as skin color, eyes or head shape.

But, despite it being the second alleged encounter, Thomas claims he was unable to gather photographic evidence because he had “made the mistake of not bringing a camera” and that he “does not own a mobile phone”.

“I will attempt to return and see if I can acquire photographic evidence at a later stage,” Thomas said.

Istana Woodneuk, an abandoned royal palace originally owned by Johor Sultan Abu Bakar ibni Daing Ibrahim, is considered a “haunted area” by the local population and tourists alike.

Southeast Asia has become a hot spot for reported Mothman sightings this month. Just two weeks ago, a woman said she had seen a creature that looked like a “tall man with wings” at an abandoned house in Singapore. Four days later, another woman claimed she had encountered something that looked like a person with “bat wings” in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia.

Canadian Photographs Disk-Shaped UFO in Ontario

SCARBOROUGH, Ontario —  An Ontario resident last Monday captured the images of an unidentified flying object that resembles those reported in earlier decades.

Paul Shishis, a 56-year-old working as a QC receiver, told Cryptozoology News the object showed up during his 11 a.m. morning work break.

“I was outside alone admiring a great morning having a smoke when something caught my eye from the East side, near our work roof,” he says. “I noticed a dark thing,  ‘very’ high moving about not a straight flight path. It was doing a zigzag pattern directly above the roof,” he adds.

The man says he took 12 pictures of the soundless object as it passed above the building.

“I was hoping to reveal better detail in picture what my eyes could not fully see way up there. Out of the bunch taken only two pictures caught this dark thing.”

Shishis submitted the two original photographs in addition to five others showing a close up of the alleged object. They show a metallic flying device similar to the one shown in the McMinnville, Oregon UFO pictures taken by a farmer in 1950. The archetypal image was also reborn during the 90s thanks to a poster on agent Mulder office’s wall on the X-Files TV show at a time when triangular and cigar-shaped UFOs were the most commonly reported sightings around the world.

“My friend M .G. magnified the images. It appears that I have captured your  ‘classical disk like flying saucer ‘ that also confirms this is not a bird. It is a classical saucer shape from the 50s.”

The Ontarian said he couldn’t estimate the size of the object, since it was reportedly flying at a “extremely high” altitude. The sighting, he says, lasted only about two minutes before the object disappeared in the western sky, but he hopes someone else caught a glimpse of it.

In late June, a Peruvian man and his son released a video showing what they referred to as a “UFO fleet”.

Former White House Counselor for Climate Change and Energy Policy John Podesta in a tweet last February expressed his regrets at not securing UFO disclosure prior to stepping down from his job.

Three weeks later, President Obama during a Jimmy Kimmel show appearance said jokingly that “aliens exercise strict control” over humans. The President later denied any knowledge of the unproven creatures.

Mother, Son See ‘Whistling Bigfoot’ in Washington

Wash. — A mother and her son living in the northern area of Snohomish County said they had an encounter with two “whistling Bigfoot” creatures.

1442080430awoq8

JaycubL, a YouTuber hosting a how-to channel with over 12,000 subscribers, said he was inside the house when his mother heard what appeared to be two animals communicating via whistles.

“She said it was two creatures whistling back and forth, I thought maybe it could have been deer. She thought maybe it was deer too,” he said about last year’s encounter in a 12-minute-long video he released on Saturday. “I came out to look, and as I came out the porch, she had already gotten out before I did, I came out just about a minute later.”

The man claims he saw a black figure walking through an opening leading to the woods, and, thinking it was his mother wearing a “black coat with a hood”, he figured he’d start following her so they could find out the source of the whistles.

“I really thought it was my mom, so I didn’t stare at it or anything. So walk down here to, I keep hearing this whistling up to my right somewhere. Then I realize that my mom isn’t just here. Whatever I followed right here is now hiding. I realized what was whistling to my side earlier was actually my mom staying right there in the yard. I guess she had been whistling to the creatures and they had been responding.”

He estimated the height of the animal at about 8 feet.

That’s when JaycubL says he became nervous and started sprinting out of the area, slowing down as he approached his mother.

“I was trying not to show that I was freaked out about it,” he said. “My mother said there was another one behind the neighbors said, there were apparently two of them.”

His mother, who also gave her testimony during the video, says that there have been a few reported sightings allegedly taking place nearby.

Last July, another man in Washington said that he had been followed by a Bigfoot creature in a remote area of the state.

In 1996, a 911 dispatcher responded to a call made by a frightened caller out of the Kitsap Peninsula, Washington. The call prompted immediate action from the authorities, who after investigating the area weren’t able to find any evidence of the animal.

And the YouTuber, always keeping a serious approach with his how-to videos, knows that many viewers will find his Bigfoot encounter funny, but, he says, this is “not a joke” and that people should take these stories seriously.

“Or they will not tell you anymore,” he said.
