Sasquatch Odyssey

• SO EP:692 What The Hell Is That!

  Fred from Alaska shares a chilling collection of Alaskan Sasquatch encounters that stretch across decades of tundra silence and deep wilderness unease. In this episode, the host returns to Vincent Wesley’s 2011 moose-hunting trip, when what should have been a routine outing took a terrifying turn after Vincent crossed paths with what locals call the “hairy man.” After new conversations with Vincent’s sister Grace and villagers from the surrounding region, the story widens into something far more unsettling, as fresh details surface about strange vocalizations, unexplained movement in the brush, and a long pattern of sightings that locals have kept quiet for years.As the episode unfolds, listeners hear additional accounts from villagers who describe the same kind of presence moving through their homeland. A group of women and children recount a 2021 encounter with an immense, unfamiliar figure that appeared briefly but left a lasting psychological mark, reinforcing the sense that these beings are not legends in Alaska, but a reality quietly woven into daily life.He also shares a haunting story from the 1970s, told by Lorraine, a volcanologist working in remote Alaskan terrain who experienced something eerie and intelligent watching her from the edge of isolation—an encounter that still rattles her decades later. Another disturbing account comes from Corey and Bob, who describe a tense run-in near Snake River with a mysterious figure that seemed to track them with deliberate intent, leaving them convinced they were being studied, not hunted.Out there in the tundra, in the places where the land feels endless and human voices fade, something else may be living alongside us—watching, moving, and occasionally stepping into view just long enough to remind people they are not alone.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

• SO EP:693 Friendly Forest Giants

  In this powerful and haunting episode, we share the life-changing testimony of Mary, a ninety-two-year-old Yup'ik woman who survived one of the most frightening Sasquatch encounters ever recorded. This isn’t a tale of footprints or shadows in the trees—this is the story of what happened when an Alaskan village along the Copper River faced something ancient, intelligent, and deadly during the summer of 1962. Mary was only eight when her peaceful village became a hunting ground.What began with one trapper disappearing quickly turned into a terrifying ordeal that claimed several lives, including two of Mary’s closest childhood friends. Through her memories, we experience the fear that grew as massive footprints appeared around homes, red eyes watched from the twilight, and the villagers realized this was no bear.Her account connects deeply to Yup'ik traditions and the old stories of the kushta’ka—the hairymen who walked the land long before outsiders arrived.Mary’s grandmother recognized the danger immediately, explaining that sometimes one of these beings “goes bad,” much like a rabid wolf, and develops a deadly hunger for humans. As children vanished and attacks intensified, twelve villages came together in a desperate attempt to fight back. Forty-three hunters formed a war party armed with everything from WWII rifles to a centuries-old Russian bear spear blessed by a shaman. Their battle in the deep forest was brutal, courageous, and left lasting scars on everyone involved.But Mary’s story goes far beyond violence. Sixty years later, she revealed a secret second encounter—this time with a female Sasquatch who returned something precious to Mary. Whether it was grief, remorse, or understanding, the moment changed how Mary saw these beings forever. Throughout her life, Mary witnessed other encounters that suggested a fragile, uneasy coexistence.The female that fought so fiercely was defending her mate, just as the villagers were defending their families. As Mary reached ninety-three, she shared her final thoughts about the visits she believed she still received from the surviving creature—now old, quiet, and watchful. She spoke of dreams where she saw the story through the creature’s eyes and understood that what happened wasn’t evil—it was two worlds colliding in a place both called home.Her final message is a warning: as the wilderness shrinks, the fragile peace between humans and these ancient beings may not hold. She shares this story not to encourage people to seek Sasquatch, but to remind us of the respect and boundaries forged at such a terrible cost.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

• SO EP:690 Bigfoot and the Fountain Of Youth

  In this exciting installment of the ongoing Ozark Mountain Bigfoot Conference series, Ryan “RPG” Golembeske returns for another deep dive into the world of cryptids—this time taking listeners on a journey from the depths of the ocean to the heart of the wilderness.With his signature blend of curiosity, experience, and adventurous storytelling, RPG explores the legendary creatures that continue to captivate researchers and enthusiasts alike. The discussion begins with iconic sea monsters such as the Kraken, examining whether sightings throughout history may point to encounters with massive cephalopods like giant octopuses. He then shifts to the mysterious waters of Loch Ness, highlighting the compelling scientific theory that Nessie could be a supersized eel—a hypothesis gaining traction through modern research.From there, the conversation moves into familiar terrain: Bigfoot. RPG presents a fascinating angle on Sasquatch biology and survival, proposing that these elusive beings may rely on naturally occurring hyperbaric environments—hidden geothermal systems, pressure-regulated cave networks, or unique atmospheric pockets—to maintain longevity, accelerate healing, and avoid detection. The talk expands into broader cryptid theory, asking whether such creatures are undiscovered animals, evolutionary holdovers, or manifestations of phenomena we have yet to understand. hrough a blend of science, speculation, anthropology, and field experience, RPG guides the audience through a dynamic exploration of the unknown.This session delivers another captivating chapter in the Ozark Mountain Bigfoot Conference series—an invitation to rethink what might still be hiding in our oceans, forests, and unexplored corners of the world.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

• SO EP:689 Killer Monkeys

  Deep in the shadowed heart of Alaska’s Copper River Valley, the wilderness holds more than silence—it remembers. In this chilling episode of Sasquatch Odyssey, the haunting folklore of Alaska comes alive through vivid accounts passed down by those who’ve lived closest to its mysteries.From the whispered warnings of elders to the trembling voices of witnesses, Killers in the Valley explores the eerie boundary between legend and lived experience. We journey through tales of monstrous “killer monkeys” stalking the riverbanks, and the Harrimen—dark, elusive figures said to roam the fog-laden forests where few dare to tread.But the most unnerving of all are the shape-shifters: sea otters that rise from the depths, transforming into towering, humanlike beings cloaked in shadow and dripping river water.Agatha, whose quiet day of berry picking turned into a nightmare of strange sounds and unseen watchers; of Ms. Carroll, whose property became a beacon for ghostly lights and inexplicable disturbances; and of William Williams, who faced a creature so horrifying it blurred the line between man, beast, and spirit.Each account carries the pulse of Alaska’s untamed wilds—a reminder that isolation, fear, and ancient belief intertwine in the frozen frontier. These stories are more than folklore; they are fragments of memory, fear, and reverence for a land that is beautiful, merciless, and deeply haunted.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
