Bizarre Pale Humanoid Encounter in New Orleans' French Quarter

An encounter with a pale humanoid in New Orleans' French Quarter, and an unexplained puncture wound, may have resulted in the eventual death of one of the witnesses
The following account was recently forwarded to me:

"I'll try to be brief. I didn't really ever want to post this but 15 years later this still haunts me.

My now deceased ex had an affinity for New Orleans. I haven't been back since his death, not that I didn't share some of his fixation with the city, but I've had too many strange encounters here and I honestly, I don't feel safe going back.

The night of this encounter, we hadn't been drinking at all. That needs to be clear with the location. He was a big guy, 6'4" and full of muscle, we were just taking a stroll after the streets started to quiet down.

I remember everything being a normal walk until after we passed Ursuline Convent, heading back toward the river. I am normally spot on with directions, but something about NOLA makes me lose my bearing and I rely on landmarks. Just after we crossed the street leaving the corner of the convent behind us, I noticed it became eerily quiet. Not something that happens there especially as people stumble to their hotels. He also noticed something because he gripped my hand quite hard and picked up pace. He had a strange look to his face as I struggled to keep up, and he was taking odd routes.

Finally I caught what was making him act bizarre. I followed a split second glance of his to a building. The best I could say, it looked like a dingy-pale, "spider man" going UP the side of a building.

I remember him harshly whispering not to look. To just keep moving. He was taking us to Bourbon St where there would hopefully be more people. But this was off season and mid-week, so there were less people. And even less than I would've expected. Time seemed to stand eerily still, as if time had stopped except for us and it.

I looked about 2 blocks later and it was on the roof - clearly tracking something that I prayed was not us. The silence was truly deafening, as my adrenaline was going and I think I tuned out more sounds trying to escape being prey.

This thin, humanoid, which was defying gravity, freaked us out bad. We made it to the hotel, with my last memory of a glide being just before the house where the supposed vampire brothers lived and disappeared from.

I think it was the most harrowing experience I've ever had, and there's been a few close calls in my life. I know it's a quirky city with plenty of the fantastical, but this was like we were in another dimension that was the French Quarter send its something that is, to this day, still frightening to me.

We were completely sober and just out for a romantic stroll, in a city we had a connection with. That thing - shudder I can't escape it, even over time.

My boyfriend had said little about it, he was even more disturbed by this than I was. He refused to say anything other than corroborating what I saw and that it was going on longer than I knew. It had come from a house away from us when he first noticed it. It's worth noting that before this, we had gone to listen to Johnny Gordon @ Lafitte's. Drank regular soda. I needed to tie my shoe right across the street and something "bit" his leg - two decent puncture wounds, maybe 0.5in apart on his calve. We brushed it off as maybe he bumped into something and didn't notice, then took our stroll. They were deep though, to not notice, but it is whatever it was. It left no strange overtones to us.

The city streets took a weird vibe that night. To be honest, its left a huge spooky shadow over all my memories of our beloved quarter. He's not around for me to ask more, so I'm asking if any of you have encountered anything like this there too." AM

NOTE: The witness stated later, referring to the puncture wounds:

"We were honestly never able to get any concrete diagnosis, and there were extensive tests along with visits to specialists. He was only 37 and started with fatigue & heart palpitations and edema in his calves, to the point of actually convincing him to go to the doctor. I want to say within 6-8 months after this occurrence.

He passed just shy of 3 years ago. We used to go out there so often that it became more feasible to have our own place there as it was every 2-3 weeks out there for a long weekend. I think I said though, this was pretty much our last time there, may have been one other trip to gather our things out of the home."

Thunderbird / Pterodactyl Sightings: Colorado, Texas & Mississippi

3 different sighting reports involving huge Thunderbird and Pterodactyl / Pterosaur creatures in Colorado, Texas and Mississippi

“In 2008, on the southeast corner of north Table Mountain in Golden, Colorado, I witnessed a large flying Thunderbird riding the lead edge of a thunderstorm that was coming out of Clear Creek Canyon. It tried to grab a turkey vulture in midair, barely missing it along the Mesa escarpment. The turkey vulture had a 4-6 foot wingspan therefore the Thunderbird had a 48-72 foot wingspan. Basically the thing had four equidistant sections (two per wing) each section being three times the vulture wingspan. The head and the legs were identical as is the wing structure (like a 2x10, not a triangle wing connected to the fuselage/body). There was also power lines and a tower directly behind the Thunderbird. The thing was immense. They do not fly, they glide and that is why they have legs that can walk them up a Mesa to jump off of.

I called the Colorado Division of Wildlife. Officer Kyle Banks came out to investigate or really to downplay the possibility of a Thunderbird, but they know. First the truth is ridiculed. Then it is denied. Then it is self evident. I have seen it in broad daylight gliding a hundred miles an hour after it tried to grab another bird in midair, truth to me is obvious." Kirk

-----

“This is crazy because my girlfriend and I where driving through Texas and at like 3:00 AM something flew right over our car and we could feel the wing flapping in the car. Its wing spread was literally at least two lanes on the highway width. I don't know what it was but it was not any drone or sleep deprivation. It was something that looked exactly like a Pterodactyl and BIG. We seen it. It seemed like as we drove up to it, it was either on the road and just took off, or it swooped down then went up because it was right in front of us then, so fast, it was just flying to the driver's side above our civic. I'm telling you, what we seen was huge. No feathers, fur, hair. Nothing but skin like a bat would have and a huge bump/something, that was very much of an attention grabber on the top of his head. I'm telling you, there was no feathers at all. Their skin was like the inside of a bat's wing but thick like leather, if that makes any sense. And the head..... I don't know. I'm not making this up. And if Pterodactyls are somehow still extinct, then we no doubt seen one.” DL

-----

“I actually saw a Pterodactyl with a tail down here on Keesler AFB, Mississippi. I wasn’t the only one who saw it. Me and two other airman saw it during a ceremony outside and we weren’t sitting anywhere near each other. After I saw it, I walked around asking others and those two saw the exact thing I saw. It was huge compared to the birds flying that high. After the ceremony, I did some research and there had been sightings in Cuba on a military base as well. Ironic enough, before I did my research, I was thinking to myself, maybe it came from an island like Cuba, something that is close to Florida. Crazy there was two other witnesses who I verified with and also showed the sketch that the Cuban man saw and they said 'That is 100% what I saw'.” FB

Possible 'Skinwalker' Observed in Texas Border Town

A resident, who lives along the Texas / Mexico border near Brownsville, describes a strange humanoid he witnessed in the alley. A Native American neighbor believes that it was a Skinwalker

"I live in a small border town along the tip of South Texas near Brownsville. Recently my brother told me he saw something that has been making him question his sanity ever since he saw it in 2014. He's the type of guy who will get up in the middle of the night and check outside the house to see if everything is alright. Some of the neighbors have had some of their property stolen so he likes to make sure all is good.

According to him, it was around 3:15 am and he heard a chorus of dogs barking loudly and aggressively down the alley behind our house. So, he gets up, walks down the hall and stares out the back door window while facing south. After gazing out the window for about 5 minutes, he swears he saw what he can only describe as a combination of a humanoid type figure with the head of a wolf-looking animal dart down the alley in a flash. He describes being able to see it's ribs protruding through it's skin.

As it ran, he said it looked like it was bending over with its palms flat on the ground (kind of like the way someone would bend down to touch their toes if they were stretching). He added that it didn't really look too hairy, but appeared to have human skin, all while possessing a translucent white/smoke color all around it. Even as it was hunched over, he said it was about 5 feet tall and 5 feet long.

The following day he told my parents about it and they happened to mention it to one of the neighbors. Turns out a few days before my brother's sighting, their Boxer had been stolen from their backyard. Instead of thinking my parents and my brother were a bunch of kooks, the lady neighbor, whom we found out came from a Native American background and whose Native American mother had given her the dog as a gift, told my parents it was probably what Native Americans refer to as a "Skinwalker" and that "it" was probably looking for her stolen dog. She also mentioned that whoever stole the dog was probably cursed by now.

I know this story sounds bizarre, but unfortunately, I don't have any pictures or any other type of evidence to present to you all." Thanks. JG

Rake-Like Humanoid Encountered in Cheboygan County, Michigan

A teen boy, who was visiting his grandparents in northern Michigan, has a terrifying encounter with a rake-like humanoid. Was it a Wendigo or another supernatural entity?

"I lived most of my life, up to the age of 14, in Michigan. Me lived in the St. Joseph area if anyone is familiar with it. Anyway, my grandparents lived in the northern areas of Michigan and we would regularly drive the 4-5+ hour drive and go visit them either on the way to our lake house which was a little farther north or just to see them. They lived in the middle of nowhere you know. 25 minutes to town sorta thing. Both of their neighbors were a mile in each direction and there property is huge. They live in a small trailer in the middle of the property. They have two pastures to each side of the property and in the back they had miles of trails that would take you through the woods. My grandfather usually used this for hunting.

I was hitting golf balls from the front of the house into the pasture. I hit all my balls and went to go collect them. I opened the gate and shut it behind me so none of the dogs could get through and I walked around picking up balls. A couple of them went farther then normal so I had to walk back behind the pasture area and into the woods. As I was walking I could hear leaves being crushed but they were like a little off from my steps. I kept hearing this weird noise come from behind me kind of like a watery sound I guess. It was like someone just got out of the shower and they were dripping wet. But this noise kept stopping and starting so I just thought it was the wind blowing water out of the trees.

I found my last ball and turned around to start walking back and I saw something tallish move behind a tree. I could tell it was taller then me but didn’t really know what it was. Being from Michigan we’ve got our fair share of scary animals that would love to bite into your meaty flesh but this was definitely not a wolf and could not have been a bear so I kind of stood there frozen just looking at the tree and bushes the thing was near. After a while the thing started to creep out.

It crawled out on its hands and legs. First I saw its long skinny arms which followed by its head. It looked up and around and finally looked at me. It crawled the rest of the way out and I could see the thing whole. It had skinny arms like it hadn’t eaten in a while. Dark looking skin that had a shine to it like it was slimy. It’s body was just like a mass of flesh. It didn’t look to have a stomach or chest it was just kinda twisted up and misformed. Its legs were just as long and f*cked up looking as its arms and both the things feet and hands were elongated. Not massively or anything but you could tell it was longer than your average foot/hand. Its head was the part I have a really hard time pinpointing down. It had eyes. No hair and a long mouth that wouldn’t open. The nose was just two holes and it had a very long exaggerated chin but it kind of looked normal In a way. It stared at me and without opening its mouth it made the sounds I had been hearing which seemed to be made by its nose as the holes flared.

It started to walk around. Not at me but just around were it was. Then it stood up on two legs. It was probably on about 6 and 1/2 feet tall but its look and appearance made it look a lot scarier. The thing moved its neck in an unnatural way and then it looked at me. It was only about 25 yards away. Way too close for comfort but I was not about to move and have this creature charge me. All of a sudden it just bolts right at me. I opened my eyes wide and just prepared myself, but it ran right by me and through the woods. I turned around and sure enough it just kept running. Sometimes on all fours sometimes on 2 legs. Its run both ways was unnatural. Its body contorted and just looked so off. I ran out of the pasture and shut the gate behind me again.

I didn’t tell my grandparents right away, but a couple months later I did. This was in the summer of 2018. I didn’t tell them until about fall of the same year. My grandfather pulled me aside after I told him and asked me what it looked like exactly. I told him and he said he'd seen it before out on the trails. He didn’t say anymore just for me not to be worried. I haven’t really told anyone but family and close friends about this but I guess that has changed now. This really messed me up for a while. Scary thing is too I’ve seen it after. Several times. In different places. Never at my home, but anywhere up north. Even at a lake cabin an hour away from my grandparents. This one was by far the scariest though. I don’t know but does anyone have any possible thing it could be. Please help me figure this out. This took place about 2 years ago in Cheboygan County, Michigan." GG

Fortean Feature: The Return of the Okeechobee Ogre

A Florida couple describes their encounter with a large hairy hominid, known as the 'Okeechobee Ogre'

By David Hoes - A Florida couple from Palmdale just reported their recent sighting of a large hairy bigfoot-like creature. They spotted the creature while they were camping along Fisheating Creek close to Lakeport, Florida. They were camping near some Indian Mounds, not far from the site of Fort Center, an area that saw heavy fighting during the Second Seminole War. Lakeport is a small retirement and fishing community on the west side of Lake Okeechobee. The mounds are considered a sacred site for Native Americans and contain artifacts along with human remains. There is a small artificial lake among the mounds that is believed to have been a channel pond for human corpses.

This couple reported hearing and then seeing a large hairy beast outside their tent in the middle of the night. The next morning, they found the carcass of a partially eaten deer nearby. They also found some long reddish-brown hairs on a branch.

Although it has now been mostly forgotten, back in the late 1990s, the Lakeport area was the epicenter a wave of skunk ape sightings.


The first sighting, which wasn't widely reported, happened early one morning in 1995 or 1996., Two hunters and their dogs were travelling by boat down Fisheating Creek, intending to hunt on ranch land that border both sides of the creek. They were hunting without illegally, so they were trying to sneak in and out without being seen.

As they traveled down the creek in their boat they heard something on shore and then caught a bad scent. Thinking it might be wild hogs, the hunters steered the boat to shore and the hunter up front prepared to jump out. However, his dogs refused to leave the boat.


The hunter finally jumped on shore and his flashlight shone on a large creature covered in dark hair that was standing on its hind legs. The hunter immediately jumped back in the boat and the other hunter threw the boat into reverse and headed back out into deeper water. They could hear the creature trying to follow them. According to the hunters, "That it wasn't no bear"

The first widely reported sighting was on November 2, 1997. Fishing guide Ronald Mosley was taking a young couple on an airboat tour when the woman saw what she described as someone in an ape suit. Neither Mosley nor her husband saw the creature, which disappeared into the woods.

Although the woman's claim was not taken seriously, two local fishermen had a sighting a few weeks later. Brian Hammock claimed that he and a companion saw a creature emerge from an alligator hole on the bank. The creature was reported as being hairy and about 6 or 7 foot tall. It left the water and disappeared into the sawgrass. Brian reported going to the area after his sighting and seeing tracks and noticing a "god awful" smell.


By the summer of 1998, there had been quite a few more sightings of what came to be known as "The Okeechobee Ogre." Locals were selling memorabilia and guides were taking visitors on skunk ape tours. There was even an Ogre webcam. According to Fish Camp owner Jim Smith, his camp was "Skunk Ape Central". Smith had several sightings of the creature and made several plaster casts of his prints.

According to Smith the creature is about 7 feet tall and has a horrible smell. Smith claimed to be leaving fish guts out for the creature to eat.

Over time, sightings dropped off. The webcam was taken down; the t-shirts stopped selling. The creature disappeared. Until now.

5 Ft Tall 'Amphibian' Biped Encountered in Mystic Caverns, Arkansas

A masonry contractor encounters a 5 ft tall bipedal 'amphibian' while working in the Mystic Caverns in Arkansas

Hello - I want to thank you in advance for reading my story. In 1981 I was working for a contractor as a masonry apprentice after leaving trade school. That summer, we were working at Mystic Caverns in northern Arkansas. We were upgrading tour trails in the caves.

On a Friday, it was getting close to quitting time. So myself and another guy had to go through the work area and make sure that all the tools were collected and that the safety barriers were in place. We weren't working during the weekend, so the work area had to be tightened up before we left. The guy who was with me had to leave - I forgot why, so I was down there by myself for a while.

I was almost finished loading the cart when I heard faint pounding sounds coming from deeper in the cavern. I thought that maybe one of the crew may still be in the cave, so I yelled out. The banging stopped and it was quiet. Then I started to hear slapping sounds for a few seconds - then it got quiet again. I yelled out again. I didn't get a response so I figured it was cave critters or bats. I started to make my way out.

There was an area that I came upon, where on the right of the railing it dropped off into a depression. There was some lighting but difficult to see the bottom of the depression. As I passed by, I heard splashing sounds coming from the depression. I stopped and I got a glimpse of something on two legs walking in the water below. Further away there was a section of the cavern that opened up and was well lit. As I watched, the splashing continued - then I saw this thing moving out of the shadows moving away from me.

The only way I can describe it was something walking on two legs with large frog feet. It stood about 5 ft and was dark grayish-green. The head was large and rounded, though it never turned around, so I can't give much detail of the face. The body was thick in the chest but narrow at the waist and hips. It bent at the knees when it stepped and had shiny skin resembling a frog. I didn't notice any hair. I didn't hear any vocals, just the splashing as it moved away from me. I'd estimate that it was 70 or so ft. from me when I first got a good look at it. I wasn't scared - just stunned. I grabbed the cart and quickly made my way towards the entrance.

When we came back to work that next Monday, I didn't mention anything to anyone. I kept a sharp watch for anything out of the ordinary. The job lasted a few more weeks and I didn't observed any other weird stuff.

A few weeks after this, I found out that one of my girlfriend's cousins worked at the caverns. He replaced lighting and did other odds & ends, so he was in the cavern a lot. When I got the chance to meet him, I asked if he had ever seen something weird in the cave. He said that he hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary. I told him I was just wondering. I didn't want to alarm him with details of what I saw.

I wasn't imagining this thing - and after all these years, I still get creeped out when I think of it. I have never heard or read about any other sightings in Mystic Caverns. What do you think this was?. Robert M.

NOTE: I received a follow-up email after I offered my opinion and asked permission to publish. The best known incident that I can compared this to is the Loveland Frogman. Lon

Tall Alien Confronts Witness Walking to Work

An experiencer retells his encounter with a tall alien entity while walking to work

"Hi Lon: I was on my way to work when I heard some rustling in the bushes across the road from me. I looked and couldn't see anything so I ignored it and carried on walking. As I got to the end of the road I was about to turn and walk down the hill to the bottom of the next road when I looked around and saw a man on a push bike coming down the hill on the opposite side of the road. As he got further along the road the lamp posts started to go off one by one as he passed them and he seemed shocked by something that he had seen in the darkness and with that he fell off his push bike and loudly shouted out some obscene language. He then got up off the ground and brushed himself off before he picked up his push bike and got back on it. He then pedalled off at speed down the road. I looked around and saw a shadow dart from a tree into the bushes. I thought to myself, 'did I just see that or did I imagine that?' I was running late so I carried on walking to work.

The next day I was on my way to work passing by the same area of bushes when just like the previous day I heard something rustling around in there. Once again I ignored it and walked by. I got to the end of the road like I did the day before and I looked around at the area where the man had fallen off his bike and I chuckled to myself because I had found it mildly amusing at the time. Then to my surprise the lamp posts started to go off one by one just leaving one lamp post lit just like the day before.

Then all of a sudden there was an eerie silence that fell upon the area and I could see something moving around in the shadows. I was spooked so I quickly ran a bit further down the road to a safe vantage point where I continued watching to see who or what would emerge from the darkness. Then I saw what it was and it shocked me to the core. There was an alien creature that was humanoid and tall. It had long spindly arms that hung down passed it's knees. Its hands only appeared to have three fingers with no opposing thumbs. Then I looked up at it's head which was large and oval with big black almond shaped eyes and two small holes where the nose should be with a mouth that had human-like teeth.The alien was looking right at me and it appeared to be slowly moving in my direction. I got the feeling that the alien wanted to walk over to me and communicate but I was too freaked out and scared by its appearance so I immediately stepped backwards in shock which caused the alien to react and stop. I could see that the alien had a look of disappointment on its face before it slowly turned around and headed back across the road strangely swinging it's spindly long arms from side to side as it moved. It's movement was very bizarre. There was a closed metal gate in the direction it was heading and to my shock the alien passed right through it like it wasn't there. I was in shock and I immediately took off running.

I ran all the way to work and when I arrived one of my work colleague said that she had passed me in the car and had seen me frantically running along the road. She laughed and said, 'were you worried about being late again John?' I replied to her and said, 'yes I was running a bit late.' I could not tell her or anyone for that matter what had really taken place because they would of thought I was completely mad. The whole workforce would of mocked me for years to come. I only wish I could tell my work colleague the truth but I doubt that she would believe me. If only we lived in a free society where you weren't condemned and laughed at in contemptuous manner for telling the truth. It still upsets me that even my best friend doesn't even believe me and thinks this is some kind of joke. I can assure everybody that this is not a joke and I was totally truthful about my strange encounters with UFOs and strange alien beings throughout my life and it doesn't get any easier each time I see them. This incident took place back in 2010 but it still freaks me out to this day. All the best John."

Bigfoot Encounters: Indiana, Virginia, Wisconsin & Idaho

4 brief Bigfoot encounter accounts from various locations throughout the United States

“When I was about 9, my nephews and I were in the woods about two and a half miles in we were going back to the house. We were walking and then we all stopped together. We felt someone or thing was watching us. It was very strong feeling and an odor that we never smelled before. It was like something dead. I said, 'We better get out of here!' We ran and made it home. I sat and gazed out the window at the tree line and I saw what looked like a 10 foot tall Bigfoot, but I never said a word. I didn't think anyone would believe me. To this day I wish I would have seen the Bigfoot up close. It happened in Switzerland County, Indiana.” BA

“I saw a Bigfoot in 1963 when it ran across the road in front of my dad's car headlights. I didn't look very big, maybe a little larger than my dad, who was 6'5". It was an exciting experience for a 10 year old kid in the front car seat between Dad and Grandpa. Mom's cousin called it a 'booger' when we got to his house later that night. (I learned later that was short for 'wood booger'. I lived in the mountains of Virginia).

In 2006, I smelled one as I was gathering wood at dusk for our campfire. I didn't know what I smelled, but it was a sickening odor. Later that night, while sleeping in a tent, I heard a growl/scream that shook my insides and scared me more than I've ever been scared in my life. And that includes finding myself inadvertently between a black bear sow and her cubs, and on another occasion being on the ground, face to fang with a 6'-6" rattlesnake. Later the next day, we found a clear 16 inch barefoot print in a muddy seep less than a mile (like a crow flies) from our camp like. The other prints were not as distinct, but were as large. I've been in some precarious predicaments in the woods in my 66 years, but never felt the primordial, sickening fear that I felt that night in the tent. I'll never forget that feeling if I live to be 166 years old.” OK

“I was with my girlfriend in Eagle River, Wisconsin back in 1987. We went out by this airport off some old road. Heard a bump on the car and scared the crap out of us. I leaned up from the backseat, turned on the headlights and there it was. Absolutely no doubt about it - Bigfoot! He stood there for about 3 seconds, then turned and walked away. We jumped up in the front seat, darted the car and backed the hell out of there. My girlfriend was from there and said she had heard a lot of stories as they migrate through there in the Summer. Never go in woods alone - ever.” WO

“My son saw one when he was 10 (in 2006) after we had just set up camp in the middle of a seven day rafting trip along the Salmon River in Idaho. He said it was "peeking at him" from behind a bush and then "took off really fast up the hill on two legs". He said it had no neck and was covered with reddish fur all over. He said it was smaller like it was a kid. He is 17 now and it still freaks him out. He doesn't ever want to look at "Bigfoot" pictures or hear other peoples stories about it. It scares him!” CW

Bigfoot / Cryptids: The Flesh & Blood vs. Supernatural Paradox

An encounter by a man in Oklahoma causes him to question if Bigfoot is a flesh & blood being or a supernatural entity

"Maud, Oklahoma - 4/15/2010 - I was rabbit hunting between the hours of 2130 CDT to about 2315 CDT on a farm outside of Maud, Oklahoma. It was a clear and cold night with a quarter moon out. I was armed with an a pump-action tactical shotgun and a Kimber 5in. 45. cal. pistol along with about 100 rounds of 45 and 45 shotgun rounds. Both weapons are equipped with high end wight lights.

Upon returning to my home, about 2315 CDT, I walked up on my patio which is about 5 feet off the ground. I saw a large human like figure that was bigger than any man I ever saw. I used the Surefire white light on my shotgun to see better. Due to light fog, I could only see about 25 feet with the light. The creature was out in the open enough to see an outline of the figure. I had seen all my animals act unusual prior, a feeling of being watched at hours of darkness on more then once. The figure was watching me and made eye contact. It was very large and close to 7 to 8 feet tall, was very stocky build, would guess over 400 lbs.

The figure seemed annoyed that I pointed my shotgun at it. It seemed to have no fear of me or my animals. My dog (military trained) cowered down and would not respond to commands. I did contact a "Bigfoot team" that showed up within 72 hours of this. No evidence was found. No footprints, hair, nothing.

I did experience some lapse in memory there after. I am a retired special forces sniper with 10 yrs. experience and 3 tours in Iraq, including the Iraq Invasion with the 3rd Inf. Div. on the frontlines. I have no knowledge after all I seen and done to describe this figure. I do need to be kept out of any public report because of my background and security clearance with the military. I just want answers and will provide full cooperation in person. The biggest thing that bothers me is the lack of fear from the figure and my fear back. I fear very little in life. Just want to get to the bottom of this."

NOTE: Could this have been (what I refer to) an interdimensional Sasquatch? Here are links for those who have not read it - Interdimensional Sasquatch and The Bigfoot Paradox. I've maintained, for over a decade, that Sasquatch and other cryptids may be something other than just a flesh and blood terrestrial beings. There have been countless sightings (including myself) of these creatures as compared to the amount of physical evidence retrieved. This fact has forced me to question the true nature of these beasts. Is Sasquatch a multidimensional entity? Is it possible that Sasquatch has the ability to move in and out of this plane of existence into an alternative universe? Perhaps this creature and other cryptids are simply not an earthbound entity because it is actually extraterrestrial or of alien origin. Or maybe it has traveled back from the future earth and is a creature that will one day inhabit our planet. Then again, is it possible that those alien beings and strange entities that are witnessed everyday in our present world are simply our descendants from the earth's future who are just paying us a visit?

Invisible Cloaking Entity in Juarez, Mexico Park (Video / Photo Captures)

A Juarez, Mexico resident video records an invisible / cloaked entity at his son's baseball game

UFO investigator Tercer Milenio investigated a case after a videotape was sent to him. It involved an apparent invisible entity which was filmed at Burundi park in the city of Juarez.

It was the evening of November 10, 2014. Armando Martinez was at his son's baseball game. His friend, Ismael Cardido, also in the stands, was filming with his cellphone. It was a fairly standard evening with nothing out of the ordinary occurring. Later, after arriving home, while looking at the video his friend recorded, Martinez and Cardido were shocked to see a strange figure standing on the field. It was actually Martinez's wife that was the first to spot it. Strangely, none of them had recalled seeing this odd figure during the game but he was clearly visible in the recording. Given that he was giving off flashes of light, he would have definitely been noticeable. The whole thing was very strange. This was when Martinez decided to send his video to Mexican UFO investigator Milenio.

Milenio attempted to figure out what was going on in the video. He discovered that the children that night had sensed the presence but could not see it. It was invisible to the human eye. Upon examining the video, the figure appears to be wearing a cloak. It seems to be flashing and giving off blips of light. It moves around the field unnoticed, for the most part. “A boy on third base seems to realize that something is there and turns around on two occasions towards the being and it is standing and then it walks and you can clearly see it... and the boy definitely realizes something was there. It appears to shine or flash and was about the same height of the kids,” noted Milenio." Source: 2019 documentary “Beyond the Spectrum - Humanoids
