Peace Corps Volunteers' Amazing YETI Encounter in Nepal

A couple is in the Peace Corps in 1997, working in Nepal. They hike the mountains frequently. One day, they encounter a Yeti that was watching them. The woman experienced 'mind speak.'
"My first name is Debbie. I'm not in a position where my full name can be revealed. I wish that wasn't the case. My encounter is brief but it has stuck with me since. In 1997 my husband and I were in the Peace Corps volunteering to do some good in the world. We were posted in Nepal in Dolpa, one of the most remote northern areas high in the Himalayan Mountains around 10 to 12,000 feet above sea level. Dolpa borders Tibet. The area was closed to tourists at the time. It is very remote but since we were Peace Corps and stationed there we were permitted to hike/track to rural towns to do our job.
We lived mostly with Buddhist people. They were honest hard-working wonderful and peaceful people. We had been on a track to conduct services to local community health care workers in very remote villages. I'm a pediatric nurse so I would teach safe birthing techniques and care for infants and children, especially for burns, diarrhea, gastroenteritis, and dehydration. We trekked for two weeks at a time sometimes hiking above 14 to 15,000 feet above the tree line. It's very remote. The nearest village will be a day's hike in between and the occasional tea house or lodge every two to three hours along the trail would follow the glacier river with the occasional bridge to cross. The bridges often were just two large trees spanning the raging river or sometimes a suspended wood platform bridge.
One time on our way back from a long two-week trek, we were hiking home and we were still about two to three days out from Dunai our home village. Our backpacks weighed about 25 to 30 pounds so they're packed tightly. This was the era before cell phones not that it would matter because even today I doubt there is internet/Wi-Fi service since it's so remote. But we had a regular camera that I'd pack deep into my backpack. My husband was in front of me on the trail. we'd been hiking for several hours following the glacier river and to my right was the steep gorge down the mountain leading to the river. To my left, as the steep mountainside traversed up very steep so steep one would have a very difficult time climbing/hiking it.
So we're trekking along, our thoughts to our own, when all of a sudden I felt my hair stand on the back of my neck and my ears started ringing. It got deathly quiet I looked ahead and I saw my husband still walking ahead on the trail. I stopped, looked down and right on the dirt trail was a very large footprint that traversed the entire trail maybe 18 to 20 inches long much longer than a hiking boot. I could easily make out the toes, with the big toe at a flat foot bottom and very wide heel. I thought wow someone has gigantic feet and is flat-footed. But why would someone be out here in bare feet? Even Nepalese wore footwear when trekking, typically flip-flops actually. Then I just froze and my heart started pounding in my chest. I knew it was there staring at me to my left. I could feel it, I sense it right next to me in the bush maybe a few feet away on my left on the mountainside staring at me out of my peripheral vision. I had a human-like face, and its eyes staring at me! I never felt so much fear in my life. I didn't make out its body because it was standing behind a tree peering off to the side. I knew if I didn't yell for my husband to come and see the footprint he would never believe me. I wasn't about to put my backpack down to bring up my camera. I was too scared and had this sense of 'run now.'
Then, in my mind, I heard it say, 'Just keep going. I will not hurt you but keep going. Do not look at me.' I said back in my mind, 'I just want to show my husband the footprint and then we will go.' So I tried to yell. My voice froze. I cannot make a sound. it was so strange and I'm a talker. I barely got my voice to whisper to my husband to come back. Of course, he didn't hear me, so I kept trying to yell, but I just couldn't. My husband happened to look back because I think he sensed I wasn't behind him anymore and he started backtracking towards me. I still could barely talk and sensed the Yeti to my left this whole time watching me quietly. I didn't feel like it would hurt me but, nonetheless, I was petrified. When my husband reached me I pointed down on the path and showed him the footprint. He stared at it. Then he stared at me wide-eyed and started to look toward the Yeti and I said, 'Stop. We got to go now.' My husband nodded and we sprinted down the trail.
We ran for about 30 minutes until we felt that weird feeling leave us. I felt petrified the whole time and didn't stop trying to sprint even with our heavy packs until we felt normal again. When we finally stopped I told my husband what I encountered, the voice, and the glimpse of its face/eyes, and that the Yeti had spoken to me in my head I never heard of mind speak until later and then it made sense. We both were so shaken but I'm glad he saw the footprint or I don't think he would have fully believed me.
When we arrived in the next town to stay overnight we asked the locals if they'd ever seen the Yeti and, oh wow, did the stories fly. They told us the Yeti live in the mountain and to never hike alone and that if we didn't bother it would not bother us. But once in a while, the Yeti would come into town and take small livestock chickens and goats, or other crops mostly potatoes. They told us they tried to live peacefully with the Yeti but not to anger it or the Yeti would seek revenge. Children were not allowed to go in the mountains alone.
Since that time and living on the US east coast, mostly in Pennsylvania and Maryland, I'm not having any encounters. We hike the Appalachian Trail frequently but honestly, that's fine with me. I've heard whistling sounds late at night. I've encountered bluish orbs too, but that is another story for another time. I wanted to share my Yeti story finally." Debbie

VAMPIRES & Real Law Enforcement Investigations

We all know the story of Vlad Tepes, a historical figure whose legend was expanded by Bram Stoker's novel Dracula. You may also be familiar with the stories involving the Highgate Vampire and the Vampire Of Croglin Grange. There have been a few other vampire-related tales that fit right along with the more famous narratives, though these were part of law enforcement investigations. It's up to you to decide whether there are real facts involved:
THE ATLAS VAMPIRE
On May 1, 1932, a 32-year-old prostitute, Lilly Lindestrom was discussing plans for the evening’s May Day celebrations with her friend Minnie Jansson, a 35-year-old woman who lived on the same floor and made her living in the same way. Lilly was nicknamed the “call girl” because she was the only person in the building with a phone. Lilly received a call from a potential client, asking if he could come over. Lilly agreed, and Minnie left her to it.
On 4 May 1932, Lilly was found dead in her flat in the Sankt Eriksplan district of Stockholm, Sweden. She was last seen alive by her friend Minnie. Minnie said Lilly had to her apartment twice one evening. On the second occasion, around 9PM, Lilly was totally naked beneath her coat. That was the last that was seen of Lilly for a couple of days.
Minnie became concerned after ringing Lilly’s doorbell and getting no reply. She called the police, who forced their way in. Lilly was found lying dead on the sofa, her clothes neatly folded on a chair nearby. Her skull had been dealt a crushing blow. What elevates this case from the tragic to the utterly bizarre though was the fact that somebody had been drinking her blood! In the room was a bloodstained gravy ladle. Further inspection revealed that the blood had been drained from Lilly’s body, and the killer had used the ladle to drink it.
Despite the authorities’ best efforts, the story leaked, and the local press nicknamed the unknown killer the Atlas Vampire, due to the area of the city in which Lilly lived. Eighty of Lilly’s customers were investigated, but no suspects were revealed. Minnie hadn’t recognized the voice on the phone from what she’d heard, but she commented that the man had seemed sober and polite. There didn’t seem to be any fingerprints on any of the suspicious items at the scene. One theory was that the killer was a police officer who had bludgeoned Lilly with his truncheon and knew how to cover his tracks. Either way, Lilly’s final customer was never found.
PETRE TOMA
The authorities in Craiova, south-west Romania, opened an investigation against six people alleged to have impaled the body of a villager who, according to them "had transformed himself into a vampire" and "sucked blood from them during the night."
The body of Petre Toma had been unearthed six weeks later by his brother-in-law in the presence of several other members of the family, including his widow and her granddaughter. According to several testimonies, they made an incision in the chest of Toma to extract his heart before burning it. One report states that, in accordance with a local custom to protect against vampires, they dissolved the ashes in water and drank it.
An autopsy carried out by the authorities in Craiova confirmed that "the heart was indeed taken."
The six people explained that after the death of Toma they had felt "weakened," as if they did not have "any more blood."
"One night I saw it in my room, and in the morning I could not arise; so much was I weakened", said the grand-daughter of Toma, Mirela Marinescu. According to her, as soon as the exorcism ritual was performed the dead body "did not come anymore to haunt" its family.
The Sunday Times reported that several villagers affirmed that this exorcism ritual was known and practiced for a long time in the area and that it each time had appeared "effective against vampires."
“For centuries we have had to protect ourselves against these creatures by finding the graves of the undead and risking our lives by ripping out their hearts,” said sixty-eight-year-old Tita Musca, a local farmer.
THE NEW ORLEANS VAMPIRE MURDERS
In 1984 nine people were found dead in various sections of the French Quarter of New Orleans. They all had been murdered by having their throats torn out. The paramedics responding to the scenes were struck by the fact that there was no blood at the scenes...something or someone had simply sucked all the blood directly from the victims. Police to this day do not have a suspect in this case. The murder spree ended as quickly as it had begun. Rumors suggested that it was the work of a rogue vampire that was destroyed by the elder vampire sect of New Orleans because of pressure placed by authorities on the known vampire community in the city.
In 1933, on two different nights, police were called to Royal Street where on each night young prostitutes were found laying in an alley with their throats torn out. Both women had been dead only a few minutes when they were found but no blood was found at the scenes. A local resident who lived above one of the murder scenes claimed a dark figure was observed leaning over one of the victims and people began to scream for police. The witness said the dark figure had climbed over a 12-foot wall at the end of the alley with little effort. It appeared to the witness that the dark figure was a man dressed in a black cape and hat. Police searched but found nothing. Both murders have yet to be solved.
THE DILLSBORO VAMPIRES
In the spring of 1788 a family set up housekeeping in the small mountain community of Dillsboro N.C. The family name was Alfort and there were rumors that they had descended from royalty. They bought land by the river and built what was then a very nice large southern colonial home. Dr. Alfort opened up an office and pharmacy in a few rooms in the front of the house. The local people were at first really happy that a new doctor had arrived in their community, but very quickly this attitude was about to change.
Two men both who had gone to the new doctor to be treated for gout suddenly died. Both men had been well-liked members of the community and the circumstances angered many of the residents. However, in a short time, the local minister had brokered peace in the community and everything seemed to be fine. However, this calm was short-lived.
That Fall the young daughter of the minister was found dead in her bed with puncture marks to her throat. The minister's wife swore she had seen a dark form hovering over her daughter and she screamed but it was too late and the child quickly succumb to the attack.
The incident caused a huge outcry in the town and the people of the area started to claim a vampire or a group of vampires was in their midst. For many nights groups of men ventured out and searched but found nothing. However, some men claimed to have seen a large black bat-like creature fly over them. A few nights after the sighting a young boy ran down the hill to his grandfather's house and proclaimed that something was up the hill in his house attacking his parents. The grandfather summoned other men and they ran to the house but only found the parents and their two young daughters, who were dead with puncture wounds to their necks. The area was immediately alerted, soldiers were called in and searched the area. By February of 1789, the community had quieted down.
Then one evening screams were heard and when men arrived they witnessed a black form of a human run from the house, run down the hill, and into the Alfort house. When the village men went into the house where the screams had come from they found the bodies of a young couple with vicious bite marks to their throats. Almost at once more men came and they were told that the murderer had run down the hill and into the Alfort house. When the search party got to the Alfort house Dr. Alfort refused to let them in. However, as soon as the sheriff arrived they dragged Dr. Alfort outside and tied him to a tree. When the men entered the house they were surprised at what they found. The upstairs bedrooms each had beds but it was clear that no one had slept in them. When the sheriff and search party went downstairs they found three caskets and Mrs. Alfort, who was dressed in black, lying in one of the caskets and very much alive. She hissed and cursed at them as she was pulled from the casket.
Later that night the sheriff and the village minister announced to the crowd assembled outside the Alfort house that the Alforts and their son were vampires. The Alforts were summarily hanged and then placed back inside the house. The house was set on fire and burned to the ground. However, the couple's 15-year-old son was not found and was never seen in the area again. There were no further unusual murders in the area.
IDENTIFYING A VAMPIRE
In 1926, Agnes Murgoci wrote in The Vampire in Roumanie the ways to determine if any dead man is a vampire:
- 1. His household, his family, and his live stock, and possibly even the live stock of the whole village, die off rapidly.
- 2. He comes back in the night and speaks with the family. He may eat what he finds in dishes and knock things about, or he may help with the housework and cut wood. Female vampires also come back to their children. There was a Hungarian vampire which could not be kept away, even by the priest and holy water.
- 3. The priest reads a service at the grave. If the evil which is occurring does not cease, it is a bad sign.
- 4. A hole about the size of a serpent may be found near the tombstone of the dead man. If so, it is a sign of a vampire, because vampires come out of graves by just such holes.
- 5. Even in the daytime a white horse will not walk over the grave of a vampire, but stands still and snorts and neighs.
- 6. A gander, similarly, will not walk over the grave of a vampire.
- 7. On exhuming the corpse, if it is a vampire it will be found to be:
1. red in the face, even for months and years after burial,
2. with the face turned downwards,
3. with a foot retracted and forced into a corner of the grave or coffin.
4. If relations have died, the mouth will be red with blood. If it has only spoilt and ruined things at home, and eaten what it could find, the mouth will be covered with maize meal.

PALE CRAWLER HUMANOID Encountered by Shenandoah National Park Ranger

A Shenandoah National Park ranger recalls his encounter with a pale crawler humanoid while he was on duty. The photo that he captured was analyzed but didn't reveal much usable evidence.
I received the following account:
"I've been employed at a few different state parks around the country but for the past 10 years, I had been a park ranger at Shenandoah National Park in Virginia. I just retired this past Fall, but I do miss a lot of things about my work a lot.
Last Spring of 2022 something happened that I wasn't prepared for at all. I've always been attuned to the sights and sounds around me and though I'm cautious I've rarely been afraid of much out there. The Summer before last (2021) we had a remarkably calm season. There were hardly any animals we had to deal with and it seemed the bears and other pests were leaving everyone alone.
In April 2022 people started to hear noises around their campsites very late at night. These noises would drive their dogs insane but nobody had really seen anything unusual. It kind of felt like whatever it was was probing and checking out the area nightly, but it was staying far enough away that we couldn't see it with our spotlights.
Then one night when I was walking back to my quarters I started feeling a profound sense of dread and unease. There was the most creepy malevolent feeling in the air. I looked around and scanned the tree line before looping toward my door. I scanned the area from left to right and from my fire pit to the table. About 20 feet behind the table I saw a naked, extremely pale almost gray figure. There was this big boulder behind it so it was kind of blending in and not easy to see. If I hadn't purposely been scanning the area I wouldn't have noticed it. The thing had this humanoid quality to it, and it was very lanky and standing still. It was directly facing me. Then our eyes met and I felt my heart drop. I just went cold. I probably only stared at it for a few seconds but it felt like several minutes while my brain was trying to process what I was seeing. It stood between five and six feet tall and the shoulders were low and slumped. The body was frail and thin. It was crouched down on all fours. I couldn't make out many details of the face beyond its large black eyes. But its mouth seemed to be open and making strange clicking sounds. It's hard to describe. The fear and shock that came over me was terrifying and I couldn't think rationally at all.
I slowly pulled my phone out of my pocket and I snapped a photo that seemed to startle it. I watched it jump up onto the massive rock and then climb the tree next to it. The speed it exhibited was astounding.
I ran like my life depended on it the rest of the way to my door. I grabbed my shotgun and loaded it and aimed it at the door. I sat there with my heart hammering waiting for the doorknob to turn or the window glass to break. I even called for backup. I sat there and waited for what seemed like hours for two of my colleagues to show up. I must have sounded like a blithering idiot trying to describe what I had seen and what happened. I was usually really calm and collected which is probably what made them believe me. The three of us were all armed and we went out together to look for it. We stayed out into the early morning expecting to see or hear something but we never did. Eventually, at around 4am we lowered our guard and went into my cabin to try to get some sleep.
The next morning I could hardly believe what I had seen the night before. I kept obsessively searching the area in the daylight to see if there were any shapes or items that I could have mistaken for the creature. But the only things around were my typical campsite things. I really really wished that there could be another witness for validation.
I had to make my report but I had so little substance that I felt a bit ridiculous. I mean there were no sightings by anybody else and no one had been harmed. There were only the strange noises that people and dogs had been hearing and my one sighting. So, what could I really say? The photo that I had taken was dark and grainy and you could barely make out the rock, let alone the creature. I kept watch again that night to see if I could spot anything but there was nothing. The thought that this thing could be out there observing us was really unnerving. It was also really hard to want to warn people but not really have anything concrete to say to them.
I attempted to have the photo analyzed by several professionals, but the pixelization and darkness made the photo useless." G

Experiencer Resubmits UFO/ALIEN ABDUCTION Report 47 Years Later

A Jacksonville, Florida experiencer resubmits a full UFO encounter/alien abduction report to NUFORC 47 years later. Several images were added to the new report.
Occurred : 6/1/1976 21:00 (Entered as : 06/01/1976 9:00 PM)
Reported: 5/11/2023 2:41:05 PM 14:41
Posted: 5/19/2023
Location: Jacksonville, FL
Shape: Disk
Duration: unknown -- missing time
Characteristics: There were lights on the object. There was an aura or haze around the object. The object emitted beams. The object made a sound, and there were electrical or magnetic effects. This is a possible UFO abduction case. Entities were seen. Missing time was experienced. Marks were found on the body afterward.
In early summer 1976 @ 4yrs old, I was taken by beings from my bedroom where I was sleeping in Jacksonville, FL. The craft was over our home, I was taken into their craft, where I met many other children who did not appear to be quite human, as well as adult beings. The beings communicated with me directly into my little mind, telling me who they were, what our relationship was, and other information I would be willing to report to an investigator. I can describe the room I was in, as well as the beings, to an investigator who can include it in their official report.
I was returned to my bedroom, and immediately I ran to the living room and watched my parents, family, friends & neighbors stand in the driveway, watching craft hover above our home. The neighborhood went suddenly dark, and the encounter was over. The craft was gone.
Craft: One craft, silver-ish/metallic, disc-like, rotating lights, changing multi-colored lights from one color to the next, along the edge of the craft. The slight bulbous area at the apex of the craft. White misty light from the bottom center of the craft, an appearance that light mist is emanating from within.
There are two additional witnesses who can attest to the craft and some of the events that I have reported above. I am in contact with both witnesses. NUFORC

Stalked by UFOs & LIGHTS, Family May Have Experienced ABDUCTIONS

An Ontario resident is alarmed after observing several bright lights hovering over her backyard. More strange events and dreams suggest that the woman and her family may have experienced abductions.
"It was around 4 AM and I had finished a movie on the couch with my husband, but he fell asleep. Once it ended I went to the door to have a cigarette before bed. We lived in a basement apartment and our door was ground level at the rear of the house facing south with a small backyard about 15-20ft deep with 3 large trees lining the edge backing onto bush and swamp.
When I opened our big door and looked out the screen door (which had glass at the top and a screen at the bottom). I typically open the screen door a bit and set the bar to hold it and stick half of my body outside to have a cigarette. As soon as I set the bar and looked up I immediately noticed 3 large glowing lights hovering at the very top of those 3 trees. 2 white ones were in the two left trees and 1 red one in the tree on the right. I was taken off guard a bit and figured it was a reflection from the stove or microwave so I concluded that if I moved or blocked the light the light would go away. I ran into my bedroom which had a huge picture window right next to the door I was poking out of. If it was truly a reflection I'd see nothing in a dark room?.
So I peeked out of the blinds and there they were. I was blown away so I ran back out into the living room and looked again. For some reason I cannot understand why I didn't wake my husband to show him, it was like I was in a state of shock or like everything around me froze and I forgot about him. This time when I looked out the door, it was still open a little bit, I stuck my head out and all of a sudden I had this overwhelming feeling of being exposed, and just as I jumped to shut the door in fear I could make out multiple beings walking around in the backyard with 2 of them coming towards me at the door. But the way they moved was strange, like in one place one second then another the next. I freaked and slammed both doors shut and ran to grab my video camera and ran into my bedroom to record. When I looked out I could still see them. It scared me so much I couldn't handle the thought of opening the blinds, so I set my camera up and stuck it in the blinds.
By this time it was probably around 4:30-5:00 AM and I was wide awake in a state of panic in a half-seated position at the edge of the middle of my bed (the bed was against the wall with a large picture window spanning the entire bed) holding the camera in the blinds recording and taking the odd terrifying peek, when all of a sudden I'm waking up and it's sunny out! Only then I realized I was sitting or half falling off the end of my bed very awkwardly and the camera was on top of my dresser. I grabbed it immediately to review the footage. The first two playbacks were nothing and the third was only 30 seconds of blackness. I was devastated. Then it was like reality snapped back in and I looked up and it was 7:30 in the morning! FYI, I cannot just fall asleep sitting up or not in a bed laying down comfortably, so the odds that I just passed out are highly unfavorable because it has not happened since.
I barreled out of the room to tell my husband and I couldn't speak fast enough. I was in a total moment of panic and anxiety. The first thing he asked is why I did not wake him and to this day I'm so mad I didn't but I can't figure out why. I remember looking right at him laying there sleeping when I first saw the objects, then it was like time around me was frozen. I was still in real-time.
Before that experience my husband and our, at the time, 3 years old daughter would see strange lights moving erratically, always flashing white and red in inconsistent patterns. We live under a flight path and are used to seeing planes and small water planes or helicopters pass over but these flew much differently and very low also typically sighted and remained in the same area. After the experience, the sightings got more intense. Walking the dog I would spot a large light or craft that would seem to stalk me. My husband would often notice lights following him while driving home from work. I'd go out into my driveway to see the stars with my daughter and end up always having a sighting.
One night I put out the garbage and a red light about twice the size of a yoga ball hovering above the middle of the road, very low. I looked directly at it and yelled "Go away!" quite a few times and returned inside. After that, we would rarely see them and we're never stalked again. Though I do fear and am almost certain we are still visited, since over the past year I've had a few very strange vivid dreams that almost seem like memories of being on board a craft with my husband, tons of other humans gathered in a large room with multiple entities, some larger ones in robes at the front watching, and others walking around. One female entity comes over and takes my husband by the hand and escorted him to a private room, to briefly cover it...
I am aware there are no answers to these strange events but am more concerned about finding out if there were any related sightings or experiences in my area around that time and about my story being documented for research, etc.
I almost forgot to mention the area of trees that the UFOs were hovering in seemed to be affected, as the top of the trees died, exactly within the top of it. This occurred in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada." L

Massachusetts Woman Encounters VICIOUS 'DOGMAN' in Local Cave

A Massachusetts woman was hiking on the trail near her home. The weather turned bad and it began to rain heavily. She sought shelter in front of a cave. That is when her nightmare started!
I received the following account:
"I usually walk on a trail near my house on Massachusetts' South Shore between Boston and Cape Cod. I don't know if this particular place has a name. I usually feel safe, even as a woman hiking alone. I grew up in this area so it's not like it's the city or anything.
A few months ago on a weekday late afternoon, I was walking along the trail. First, it just started sprinkling but then it came pouring down with thunder and lightning too. I was more afraid of the lightning than anything. It was too far to run back to where I was parked so there were a lot of giant rocks in this area. I saw this rock overhang off to the right of the trail up on a hill. It was hollowed out behind it, a small cave or something. I was not about to go into a cave but I thought I could at least stand under the overhang and not get wet.
So I'm standing there waiting for the rain to slow. I just had a feeling like something was watching me because the hair on the back of my neck raised up. I felt compelled to turn around and look behind me into the darkness. At first, I didn't see anything. There are no bears or wolves in this area. If something was living in that cave it was probably a small animal. At least that's what I told myself. But when I was staring into the darkness I saw the shadows shift. I knew something was in there. It didn't look like it could be very big, though at the time I couldn't really see much.
The rain was still coming down in sheets and the sky had gotten really dark. I stood watching the lightning strikes and few of them were really close. But between the loud thunderclaps, I heard it! There was a nasty sound, like a wet sound of something eating and lip-smacking. I turned back around to look in there but I couldn't see what it was. Then the smell hit me. I guess the wind changed. It smelled rancid, like a dead raccoon on the side of the road. It made me gag. I turned back to the woods to see if there might be another overhang a short distance away. It was obvious that there was some kind of animal eating another dead animal in that cave and I just wanted to put some distance between me and it.
I took another couple of steps away from the cave and now I was getting wet from the rain. I didn't see any other place to go. Then, all at once, I heard a sound behind me, like rocks clattering. I turned around to look. The shadow of the thing inside was rising and I realized all at once that this creature was not small like I had thought. It had been crouched down and now it was standing. It must have been about six feet tall standing up on its hind legs and it totally took me by surprise. I froze for a second when I realized it was like something out of a nightmare. It had a face like a dog with a snout, only it was like a man, a big man covered in fur! I could see dog ears on its head too. I screamed and stumbled. I almost fell down the hill and that's when it growled just like a dog about to attack. I really thought I was going to die!
I'm getting goosebumps just remembering it. I took off running. I felt like my life was in danger! Thank God it didn't follow me! Of course, no one believed me. But then I looked it up on the internet and I saw people posting about this thing. They were calling it a Dogman!" MN

6-FOOT-TALL 'WEREWOLF' Confronted by Vidor, Texas Resident

Vidor, Texas residents call a six feet with long, shaggy hair and a muscular canine body a werewolf. An elusive figure roams the night, clawing at the window screens, howling, and yelping like a wounded dog.
The following historical account was forwarded to me:
KILLER CREATURE STALKS VIDOR AREA
by John Rice
VIDOR, TEXAS- Twenty years old Bobby Bussinger got brave Monday night and decided to confront what North Tram Road residents near here are calling a werewolf.
By the light of a full moon, he took his .12 gauge shotgun and walked to the back edge of his cleared lot. To his surprise, the erect form described to be taller than six feet with long, shaggy hair and a muscular body, did not scare.
It came toward him. He shot in panic as he turned and ran back toward his house. He barely made it, he said.
Then he called the sheriff's office.
Bobby and his 18-year-old wife, Beckie, have lived at the house at 3925 N. Tram Road for 14 weeks. It is owned by her father. The couple has only been married a short time. They moved there two weeks after the wedding. Bussinger works as a laborer for a construction crew at the Goodyear synthetic rubber company near Beaumont.
They knew when they moved into the area, that previous tenants left because of strange occurrences during the night.
An elusive figure roams the night, clawing at the window screens, howling, and yelping like a wounded dog.
"It wasn't that bad at first," Beckie said from the safety of her parents' Beaumont home. "But Sunday night.
Deputy Sheriff Jack Reeves picks up the story. It was Reeves who responded at 11:30 PM to the prowler call. The Bussingers told him that Sunday night three of their dogs were believed killed. The hindquarters of two were maimed and the dogs died. One is missing. All three are puppies of mixed breed, part of the eight dogs the young couple kept on the property.
Monday night after sundown, as the moon moved into full phase, they heard a commotion "like a good sized dog fight, "Reeves said. There was ganging on the walls of the house, rapping on windows, heavy footfalls were heard outside, and an eerie barking a yelping filled the air.

Creepy FACELESS PERSON Seen Inside Large Black Car!

A Phoenixville, PA resident is walking to the local Dollar General store when they notice someone with no facial features and a pale white face sitting in the driver's seat of a large black car.
I received the following account:
“I was on my way walking to the Dollar General store one early night in October 2016. I live west of Philadelphia in Phoenixville, PA. When I got ready to cross the street to where I was going I noticed that there was a large black car, possibly an older Crown Victoria, parked on the side of the Dollar General store. The car had its interior lights on. As I walked closer, I could see someone in the driver's seat. The person had long black hair and had on sunglasses, so I couldn’t see the person's eyes.
As I looked closer, I could see that the person's face was really white, like milk white. It appeared that the person was just looking straight ahead and wasn’t looking around. The person was moving a little bit so it wasn’t fake. I saw no mouth, no nose, and no facial hair. The face was just smooth white! I couldn't tell if they had ears because of their long black hair and shades. They were just parked and sitting there with the car interior light on as if they wanted to be seen for some reason. It's just weird how it just so happened to be at night when not many people were out as if it was planned that way. I was scared and creeped out.
When I came out of the Dollar General, I went home by walking all the way around the block to not pass that person. I'm saying 'person.' It's more like being. It was scary and creepy. I first thought I was seeing things. I know I'm not the only person who has seen that. I never told anyone because I felt that people would think I was nuts.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but could this have been a so-called 'Men in Black?' The entire scenario just didn't make any sense. " MA

Outdoorsman Describes Remarkable BIGFOOT KNOCKS & CALLS Heard in Coastal Northern California

An experienced outdoorsman describes his experiences in the coastal northern California wilderness, in particular, the remarkable sounds that Bigfoot can generate.
"In July 2018 I was staying in a very isolated region with limited access behind three log gates 20 miles south of Whitethorn, California on a primitive 4x4 road. This place is at the end of the road, a lost world of primeval forest on the northern border of a vast green belt spreading from Shelter Cove on the Lost Coast East to Highway 101 and south to Fort Bragg, CA.
At about 3 AM I was awakened. It was a hot, dark, and completely silent July night in these mountains. Something above my tent location, approximately two to three hundred meters, began knocking on wood. It's best described as loud whacks by a big club or branch on a tree trunk. They started one knock which got my attention. There was a brief hesitation then several more knocks, but randomly timed. The knocking was loud, so loud that it echoed down the canyon in the stillness. The event lasted only a minute or two. My first thoughts were that there was no one on the mountain who could be out here in the middle of a primitive and protective area. These knocks were from something large and no North American animal could have made them. Listening intently while my mind tried to wrap around how the noise was made.
I began to wonder about Bigfoot legends. The night fell silent again. Afterward, I told a few locals and learned that there had been many Bigfoot sightings near Piercy and north of Willow Creek.
Fast forward to two weeks ago while waiting at the first locked gate to the same conservation area I heard two distinct vocalizations which cannot be explained. As I waited in the dusk for about 45 minutes waiting to meet a party at the gate who was running late. I heard a very loud wail/scream/call that I'd never heard before in nature. The sound was coming from the heavily wooded area above me about two to three hundred meters. I instantly knew where I had heard such an unfamiliar call about three years previous. There's a few-second delay from the first call, then a few more, then silence for about a minute leading me to wonder if this whole experience was surreal. It thought that it was an unknown animal or some kind of implausible prank. It was loud and echoing down the mountain as though some huge creature could belt with the lungs of Pavarotti, only much louder. The chance of it being a prankster in this wilderness was highly unlikely. Then began another call out at about three to four hundred meters to the north. It was also just as loud but came only three calls in succession. It had a distinct higher pitch, This absolutely blew my mind because the first call might be attributed to an elk on steroids but the response brought chills down my spine.
I'll never forget that second vocalization as it was so unique and this was obviously communication between two individuals in possibly a rudimentary language.
Another experience happened just the night before the dual vocalizations on a Friday evening in early November 2019. I had just moved into a cabin that my brother and I rented located along an extremely rugged canyon area of the Mattole River. It was dusk, quite dark already in the forest. I was outside looking at the stars, taking in the newness of these rugged surroundings.
Suddenly, there was a screaming that was so loud and so foreboding that I could only listen in amazement. It was the loudest screaming I've ever heard. I thought it was produced by some kind of banshee from a horror film. The screaming continued at full throttle for over five minutes. I know mountain lions can scream but nothing like this. It sounded much louder, more guttural, literally as if someone had set up loudspeakers and played the bloodiest scream that Hollywood could produce. I wondered if someone was up on the mountainside pranking me as a newcomer to the neighborhood. I listened for a bit then went inside and told my brother about it because it was so unnerving. Bigfoot did not ever enter my mind.
But then at dusk, the very next evening, I heard two calls while waiting at the gate. I've since been over and over in my mind why have I been so lucky to hear and experience these mysterious sounds, much less three distinct vocalizations which cannot be explained in a 24-hour period.
I've been to a lot of different wilderness areas during my life, but those sounds in that specific location were simply remarkable."

ALIEN MANIFESTATION? Bizarre Incident That Left Witnesses Shocked & Dumbfounded

A bizarre encounter by 3 teen girls in Puebla, Mexico. An American man appears asking for directions to an unknown address. Then a driver in an old taxi suddenly manifests and helps him.
The following accountwas forwarded to me by my friends Cam & Kyle at Expanded Perspectives:
"Thisis an account of an incident that happened in 1974 when I was 15 years oldliving in the city of Puebla, Mexico with my family. On this day my youngersister, Janet, (she was 14), her best friend, Shay (also an American living inPuebla), and I were gathering in the afternoon so we could take a bus togetherto the city of Cholula to make clay for art class.
While Janet and I werewalking around the block to pick up Shay at her house, we saw an American man appearing to be in his mid to late 30s, walking in the oppositedirection of us, on the other side of the street. He was carrying a large duffelbag over his shoulder. Janet and I started speaking loudly in English, hopingwe would get his attention, but to no avail. When we arrived at Shay’s house, weinsisted that she hurry for the possibility of catching up with that guy. Bythe time she was finally ready we were sure we would have missed him, butinstead, he was in the same place where we saw him last.
We already told Shayabout this guy and after seeing him now, and walking in the same direction, weall spoke up loudly in English, hoping again to get his attention. This time itworked. From across the street, he yelled to us, “Do you speak English?” Hecrossed the street to the side we were on and told us he was looking for a specificaddress, taking out a piece of paper where the address was written and showingit to us. We did not recognize the street name; it was a long Aztec namebeginning with the letter T. Since we were on Tehuacan Street, he thought thestreet we were on was the same street, but it was not. We decided to walk himto the house number on Tehuacan Street that he had on his paper. While walkingto that address each of us would think different things (especially lots ofquestions), and he would look at each of us, and answer our thoughts out loud.He was reading our minds. For instance, I thought to myself, “I wonder what hisname is,” and he would look at me, and reply, “Richard.” Janet said she waswondering where he was from, and he turned to Janet and just said, “SantaBarbara, California.”
Of course, I didn’t know why he looked at Janet and saidthat, but I was catching on quickly to understand that he read our minds, asnone of us said a word, and he just answered our thought questions while facingthe person who had the thought. At one point he looked directly at Shay andsaid that she shouldn’t worry about Jaime (Shay’s boyfriend) and that he/Jaimewouldn’t be jealous. Later Shay said she was worried about what Jaime mightthink about the situation of joining this attractive guy.
We arrived at the housethat had that number he had on his paper (it was in the direction of where wewere going to catch the bus to Cholula). Because he did not know any Spanish,we spoke with the maid who answered the door at that house. The maid said thatthis was not the house he was looking for, and the people who lived there werenot the people Richard was looking for, and she closed the door. Richardcontinued addressing our thoughts, and after the door closed, I said out loud,“Hey, we probably have a map at our house (it was an apartment) and could findthe address from there.”
As you might have gathered by now, we (Shay, Janet,and I) abandoned the journey to Cholula to make clay. Everyone agreed that thiswas a good idea, so we turned back and walked to our apartment. Once there,Richard, Shay, and Janet were joined at the dining room table by my sister,Louise (the eldest of us three). Our maid, Ana, met Richard, as did my mother,and Ana and later my mother, pulled me aside and chasƟsed me for bringing astranger to our home. When my mother confronted me, I replied that she wasn’tliving her Christan values if she thought it was all right to put a person out who needed help (I sometimes was a sassy kid).
It turned out we didn’t have amap at our home, so I ran around the apartment building asking neighbors ifthey had one. No one did. I went to the ground floor Beauty Shop and asked theladies in there, and no one had one, nor had they heard of the street. Onebeautician suggested we take a bus, and before getting on, ask the bus driver ifthey knew of the street, because (she said) bus drivers know the city and herstreets best. All the time I was running around, Richard, both my sisters(Louise and Janet), Shay, and my mother were sitting around the round diningroom table. I would stop by periodically to give them updates. During one ofthese updates, I noticed that Richard had poured out a bunch of salt from thesaltshaker, and in front of him, he had formed a pyramid, complete with fourflat sides, and a pointed top. I remember looking at that and thinking it wasodd but was more focused on trying to find a map for Richard. Later Anacommented to me that he was rude to make such a mess on the table with thesalt.
Since no one in the building had a map, we took the advice of going to abus stop and asking a bus driver about the address. We went to the bus stopthat was around the corner, on the street where Shay lived and where we firstfound Richard. That bus stop was across the street from a park that normallywas crowded with people but was totally empty when we got there. Richard, Shay,Janet, and I waited at that corner for the buses. Buses in a Mexican city areplentiful, and they would come by about every five minutes or so.
When the busesarrived and stopped, I took the written address and asked the bus driver if theyknew the street. Five buses went by in all. A couple of the bus drivers repliedthat if the spelling and the name were changed, they might know the street, whileall the others said there was no such street. I had thought that I wouldcontinue with Richard to his destination (as I have said before, he wasattractive). In a little bit, you will see why this is significant.
After the fifthbus left, we stood there quietly. Shay, Janet, and I were facing Richardand the empty park behind him, while Richard was facing the opposite way, withhis back to the park. His duffle bag was on the ground next to him. We were allsilent, and then suddenly, ‘Poof,’ in a split second, a large, old-timetaxi-looking bomb of a car appeared right before our eyes! No engine sound,facing the wrong direction on a one-way street, and just behind Richard. We(Shay, Janet, and I) were totally flabbergasted! Breathless! In total shock!The car appeared old, with a splotchy green paint job, light green, with fadedareas here and there. Directly after it appeared a man who looked and soundedEXACTLY like Alfred Hitchcock, seated in the driver’s seat, and having hiselbow out the opened window resting his arm there, said, “Young man, are youlooking for T…. Street?” He said the EXACT name of the street that no one hadheard of before. His voice was totally Alfred Hitchcock’s voice, too!
Immediately Richard picked up his duffle bag, turned around, and said, “Yes, Iam.” At that, Alfred Hitchcock closed his hands together (as in prayer), thenopened them with a map opening between his hands. He said to Richard, “This iswhere we are, and this is where we’re going,” pointing out the places on themap. Richard was leaning towards Alfred Hitchcock and getting this information andthey continued talking to each other. Shay leaned against the car to catch herbreath as we were all so blown away by the car and Alfred Hitchcock’sappearance. Janet sharply told Shay to stop leaning on the car, because if itdisappeared like it appeared, she would be flat on her back in the street. Shaystopped leaning.
At about that point, Richard picked up his duffle bag, walkedaround the front of the car, threw his duffle bag in the car, and right beforehe got in the passenger seat, looked at me and asked, “Don’t you want to come?”I said an emphatic, No! He said OK, got in the seat, and then the car, with noengine motor sounds, turned the corner towards Shay’s house, and while it was turningAlfred Hitchcock said loudly to us, “Have a nice trip, see you in the funnypapers!” (I had never before had heard the expression of, ‘see you in the funnypapers’). As soon as the car straightened onto the street, the car, with AlfredHitchcock and Richard in it, disappeared immediately, as quickly as it hadfirst shown up.
We (Shay, Janet, and I) were so freaked out that we all startedrunning towards our home in a frantic state, but at one point we all stopped,gathered together, kind of hugging each other and feeling like deer inheadlights. When we were together like that, we heard all around us, especiallyabove us, Alfred Hitchcock’s voice laughing and laughing. After a minute or twoof that low, sinister laugh, it stopped, and we felt ‘released,’ and ran on.
For the past (almost) 50 years I have kept my eyes open to anything that mightexplain the incident. Janet and I have told the story through the years (wehave not been in touch with Shay, so I don’t know if she has spoken of it sincewe all left Mexico). I’ve asked many people what they thought, and only oncewhen I went to a seance that a friend had organized, did the medium tell me itwas an alien abduction when I explained the experience to her after she did areading of the group. That never felt ‘right’ to me, but I don’t know.
In 2008I ran across a Reuters article on the torture of sleep deprivation that shamedour country in Gitmo with terrorist prisoners. I was teaching Introduction to Psychology and a course called The Psychology ofDreams at our nearby university, so I read much about sleep, dreams, and theeffect sleep deprivation has on the psyche. The article was about the sleepdeprivation of bin Laden’s driver, Salim Hamdan. The article described how Hamdanwas tortured by being deprived of sleep for 50 days.
I read on and was blownaway when I read two paragraphs in that article that stood out for me. The firstread, “They also said the records indicated Hamdan and other prisoners at theremote detention camp in southeastern Cuba were visited by someone called“Alfred Hitchcock,” apparently over the British master of psychological thrillerfilms who died in 1980.” Later in the article under the heading, “Who was AlfredHitchcock?” it read, “Defense lawyers said they were curious about the meaningof entries in the documents that ‘Alfred Hitchcock’ had visited Hamdan andother prisoners. “Who Alfred Hitchcock is [,] I have no idea,” said Navy Lt.Cmdr. Brian Mizer, a defense lawyer, “It’s obviously a code name forsomething.” I have not found any further strange information about ‘AlfredHitchcock,’ but the incident that happened to us happened in 1974, and AlfredHitchcock was alive at that time.
I don’t think I ever thought it was the ‘real’Alfred Hitchcock, nor a ghost of one, but a duplicate in some strange way. Thisentire incident was experienced by my sister, Janet, her friend, Shay, and me,while several other witnesses were a part of the experience at certain points.My older sister, Louise, my mother, and our maid, Ana, met Richard andwitnessed some of his strange behaviors (reading minds and making a pyramid outof salt). I would just like to know if anyone out there has any idea what itmay have been about.
I hadmost of my “out-of-science” experiences there in Puebla, and I have alwayswondered if it is a place where magical types of things happen. Even when I goback to visit my older sister, nephew, and his family, I have strange thingshappen, so I don’t think it was a thing of youth, but rather of place. That isinteresting to me. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-S) and educator inTexas, with three master’s degrees. My sister, Janet, is a veterinarian and a paramedic here in Texas, and my sister, Louise, has a Ph.D. and teaches at auniversity in Mexico. I think we could be considered credible."
NOTE: Was the man, referred to as 'Alfred Hitchcock,' an alien manifestation? Could this event be a type of alien abduction? Very bizarre account! Lon

Featured in this edition:
The reports of winged humanoids, referred to by many witnesses as the 'O'Hare Mothman or Batman,' continue at the airport. Cargo workers, air traffic controllers, & other airport personnel are well aware of the phenomenon and openly discuss it. The O'Hare management and the airlines start to crack down on reports reaching the public by threatening suspension and termination.
In this episode, I will describe the reports and incidents in detail and answer all questions from the chat room. Because so much important information is yet to be discussed, at least another episode will be presented in the coming weeks.
