Bigfoot Society

A face appeared outside her school bus in the Oregon woods. Then she heard three words: “Let me in.” Kalinna was living in a converted school bus with her logger husband while doing fire watch near Brookings, Oregon. One night, her dogs began shaking and growling at the entrance. Through the lower door glass, she says she saw silver eyes, dark leathery skin, and a face that formed a forced smile. In Bigfoot Society Episode 1225, Kalinna recounts that close encounter, objects skipping across the bus roof, strange wooden structures, and a massive moss-covered boulder that seemed to hum. When she told her husband about the voice, his unusually specific question gave her another mystery to consider. What approached their bus deep in the Chetco River area—and why did it want to come inside?

He fired a warning shot. The growling continued. Then he saw its face—about ten feet away. David Boozer returns to Bigfoot Society to share his son’s reported Bigfoot encounter near Rock Creek in Oregon’s North Umpqua region. A deer hunt took a frightening turn when two young hunters heard a childlike sound, heavy movement through the brush, and a deep growl that David’s son said he could feel through his body. Then came the mustard-yellow eyes. David joins Jeremiah Byron to recount the close confrontation, his son’s friend firing at an approaching figure, and a frantic escape down the mountain. Later that night, the friend’s father reportedly returned to investigate. Afterward, he told his son: “We don’t talk about this anymore.” What did they find when they went back?

When he looked again, a massive blond Bigfoot was standing approximately 20 feet away, silently watching him.

At 11 years old, Antonio and his best friend were walking home through familiar woods along the Southwick–Westfield border in Western Massachusetts when massive bipedal footsteps began closing in through dense brush.

Mike thought he was watching a bear outside a remote cabin in the mountains of North Georgia. Then he noticed the hand. About ten years ago, Mike was staying alone near Elijay, Georgia, where his stepfather had been dealing with an animal getting into a deer feeder. One morning around 9:15, Mike finally saw something feeding outside. He watched from the cabin window as the encounter unfolded only 30 yards away. The longer Mike looked, the harder it became to explain what he was seeing. A hand. A face. An unusual brow. Massive shoulders. Dark brown hair. For a moment, he wondered if a hunter wearing a ghillie suit had wandered onto the property. Mike kept what happened that morning to himself for years. In this episode of Bigfoot Society, he finally walks Jeremiah through the experience in detail—the distances, the physical features he remembers, his attempts to identify what was outside the cabin, and the reason this encounter eventually returned to the surface nearly a decade later. This is Mike's firsthand…

Note: This is the original version of the interview with 8 minutes that were cut for the public. If you like me chit chatting at the beginning then you'll like this. A former MUFON investigator went to Oakridge, Oregon searching for answers. One night outside her cabin, something came out of the darkness and headed straight toward her. In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Patti Valvo shares what happened during an investigation that took her deep into some of the most active and mysterious locations in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Oregon. Near Oakridge, Patti heard unexplained knocks along the edge of the Willamette National Forest and experienced small objects landing near her as she walked back toward the cabin.

Patti also takes us to Sparks Lake, where she documented enormous barefoot impressions near the water, and Waldo Lake, where strange tree formations added…

Mike Wanders has spent years traveling alone into some of North America’s most remote wilderness, searching the places where Sasquatch reports refuse to disappear. In this episode, Mike joins Bigfoot Society to share what happened during his expeditions into Vancouver Island, Bluff Creek, Mt. Hood, Prince of Wales Island, the Hockomock Swamp, and other legendary locations. Deep in Clayoquot Sound, a water taxi left Mike alone beside an abandoned cabin surrounded by old-growth rainforest. As darkness settled over the cove, the atmosphere changed. Hours later, something enormous moved over the treetops.

What happens when a skeptical BFRO investigator travels deep into British Columbia with one of the most controversial figures in the Bigfoot world? Frank Middleton joins Bigfoot Society to share years of field investigations across Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, and British Columbia. Frank approaches the subject with a track-and-sign background and a simple rule: eliminate the ordinary explanations first. That approach has taken him into some remarkable situations.

In Florida’s Green Swamp, Frank and his sons watch large amber-colored eyes swaying behind a tree at the edge of the woods. Later that night, something begins walking around their tent.

Russell Wiitala went looking for Bigfoot nearly 20 years ago. Eventually, something started answering back. In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Russell takes us deep into his experiences across Washington and the Pacific Northwest, beginning with strange tracks, powerful odors, unexplained knocks, and vocalizations in the Willapa Hills. Then the encounters get closer. Russell describes a January 2025 trip to Ocean Shores, Washington, where he spotted a figure standing beside the road before daylight. When he and his friend returned to investigate, his friend saw a gray-haired figure attempting to hide among the trees in a swamp. Russell also shares years of experiences throughout the Olympic Peninsula and Wynoochee area: long screams echoing across valleys, rocks striking tents, strange voices in the forest, possible juvenile Sasquatch activity, trees coming down, unexplained gifts, and something descending a ridge and entering his campsite while he listened from inside his tent.

Ronnie Roseman returns to Bigfoot Society with new details from one of Oregon’s most intense Sasquatch research areas near Oakridge. Ronnie shares reports of strange structures hidden along remote trails, unsettling vocalizations from the bottoms, a meadow covered in Bigfoot tracks measuring up to 23 inches, and encounters where multiple unseen creatures appeared to position themselves around researchers. He also reveals one of the strangest experiences he has ever kept private: a possible Bigfoot standing on a distant dirt road that Ronnie and Duane watched for roughly 15 minutes. When they returned weeks later, the road itself appeared to be gone. This episode goes deep into decades of field experience, aggressive nighttime encounters, Sasquatch behavior, and the questions Ronnie still cannot answer.

In 1977, Hal drove six hours north to the Standing Rock Reservation after reports of Bigfoot activity around Little Eagle, South Dakota began appearing on television and in newspapers. Late one night, alone at his campsite near the river, Hal heard something approximately 600 feet away. Three shorter sounds. Then an incredibly loud, prolonged wail. Within moments, dogs in the nearby village erupted. Coyotes on a ridge joined them. Nearly 50 years later, Hal still remembers exactly what that sound did to him.
