Sasquatch Odyssey

Natalie Spearman joins Brian to share the strange path that led her from Florida to the forests of the UK, the wilds of West Virginia, and some of the most active paranormal and cryptid locations in the country. She talks about the experiences that first sparked her interest in Bigfoot, including an Ocala National Forest report, her time at major Bigfoot conferences, and a terrifying solo campout in the Everglades that turned out to have a very real explanation.

The conversation then moves into Natalie’s work with Adam Davis and Relic Films, including intense investigations at Land Between the Lakes, the Emmaus Asylum in Missouri, the Smoky Mountains, and other high-strangeness locations. Natalie describes unsettling activity involving lights, orbs, possible crawler-like entities, equipment failures, physical effects, base-camp encounters, and a massive Bigfoot sighting that left a lasting impression.

Brian and Natalie also discuss the upcoming Relic Films project The Vanished, where viewers can stream it, and where fans can follow Natalie’s work and catch future festival appearances.

Tonight's episode comes from a longtime listener who finally sat down at his kitchen table at two in the morning and put forty-four years of silence into words. He asked us to call him Jacob. In the summer of 1982, when he was twelve years old, he and three of his closest friends hiked into a stretch of north Georgia national forest with packs on their backs and a single .22 rifle between them. It was their first campout without adults.

They were supposed to stay a week. They came home after three days, and they have never once sat down together and talked about why. What happened to those four boys over those three nights is the kind of thing that rearranges a person from the inside out. Wood knocks on the ridge. A voice in the trees that knew one of their names. A figure stepping out from behind a poplar twenty yards from the fire. And in the deepest hours of the third night, something heavy and patient running its hand across the top of their tent while all four of them sat inside in the dark, holding their breath.

Jacob's letter is long, and it's careful, and it's one of the more honest accounts we've ever been sent. We're reading it tonight in his words, the way he wrote it, the way he's carried it. If this episode means something to you, share it with somebody who needs to hear it.

And if you've got a story of your own you've been holding onto, you know where to send it. [email protected].

Jeremy spent two tours in Iraq and came home carrying things he couldn't name. In October 2006, he went alone into the deep backcountry of the Washington Cascades for a week-long solo elk hunt, hoping the wilderness would do what it had always done for him. It didn't.

Something else was in that drainage, and it had been aware of him long before he was aware of it.This is one of the most carefully told accounts we've received at Backwoods Bigfoot Stories. Jeremy is a veteran, a lifelong hunter, and a man who spent nearly twenty years deciding whether to say any of this out loud. He describes strange resonant knocking that didn't always sound like it came from a surface. Depressions in soft ground that stopped him cold.

A food hang disturbed in a way that didn't match any bear behavior he'd ever seen. And then, on the fifth night, three of them surrounding his camp in the dark, with eyes that weren't reflecting light so much as generating it. One of them stepped out into the clearing and let him see it. That was enough.
He broke camp before first light and walked ten miles out in the dark.He's never told his wife. He's never told anyone. 

The experience lives in the same interior room as the things he brought back from the war, and he's kept that room closed for a long time. He opened it here.I f something has been sitting with you, you know where to reach us. [email protected]

In this episode, Brian sits down with Ian from the UK to explore a lifetime shaped by the unexplained. What begins as a childhood fascination with the paranormal quickly deepens into something far more unsettling, as Ian recounts a series of eerie early experiences involving shadow figures, a mysteriously moving clown doll, and recurring sightings of a crouched white entity that seemed to follow him across different stages of his life.

One particularly chilling encounter unfolds during an investigation in Germany, reinforcing his belief that these phenomena are anything but imagined.As the conversation shifts, Ian shares the moment that pulled him firmly into Sasquatch research. During a nighttime investigation near Dartmoor at the abandoned Leira Tunnel, he and his colleague John experienced something that defied easy explanation. Strange, camera-like flashes pierced the darkness before they spotted a massive, neckless, hair-covered figure roughly 30 to 40 yards away.

When illuminated, the creature seemed to vanish, only to reappear closer moments later. The encounter escalated as the figure abruptly changed direction and disappeared into the surrounding terrain, accompanied by the unmistakable sounds of heavy footfalls and branches snapping under its weight.Ian also reflects on the unique challenges of researching cryptids in the UK, where skepticism often overshadows open discussion.

He explores the possibility of hidden habitats, including cave systems and abandoned mineshafts, and discusses patterns reported by witnesses such as rock-throwing, unusual tree structures, and fleeting sightings that mirror accounts from around the world. As his research group evolves to include a broader focus on cryptid investigations, Ian emphasizes the importance of curiosity and open-mindedness when confronting the unknown.

Fred from the Sub Arctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel returns to share two chilling accounts of Alaska’s mysterious “Harry Man.” For more incredible stories from Fred, be sure to check out his channel using the link in the show notes.In the first account, Daniel from the Bristol Bay region recalls a terrifying experience from roughly 40 years ago while helping his father build a log cabin on a Native allotment.

What began with small but unsettling disturbances, including missing items and eerie screams in the surrounding wilderness, quickly escalated into something far more frightening. One night, violent knocking shook the cabin, triggering an overwhelming sense of dread. When they stepped outside, they came face to face with a massive, muscular figure covered in reddish-brown hair, standing well over 10 feet tall. At the same time, it seemed another presence had entered the cabin itself, breaking through the door.

Fearing for their lives, Daniel and his father fled to their skiff as strange chirping, clicking, and popping sounds echoed around them. When they later returned, they found the cabin badly damaged, and years afterward, only the lower portion remained salvageable.Fred also shares reports from Mark Frank, whose own sightings add another unsettling layer to the mystery.

In February 2019, near an oil well and seismic trail, Mark encountered a large hairy figure that appeared to transform into a moose with a distorted face before vanishing from sight.

 Then, in May near Valdez, he witnessed multiple figures positioned on a mountainside, seemingly watching over a female and two juveniles as they moved across the slope.
