CRYPTID CANINE ENCOUNTER & OTHER UNEXPLAINED ACTIVITIES Described in Southern California

A reader contacts me and describes several unexplained encounters and sightings throughout Southern California, including a possible cryptid canine incident.

I received the following account:

"Hello, Mr. Strickler. I've been watching your show and watching you on Spaced Out Radio for years. I really wanted to be sure I was sending this info to someone who really cares and is serious about the topic I'm going to tell you about here. I want to thank you because I can see this really is a passion for you and things you take very seriously.

I used to live all over the Southern CA area. I grew up there. When I lived in Corona, CA which is in Riverside County. I had an experience that I can not to this day explain. This happened around 2002-2003 on the Southbound 15 freeway by Cleveland National Forest. I was driving in the fast lane and something huge started to run out in front of my car coming from the left. I hit whatever this thing was with the left front corner of my car. I didn't even have time to react! For the split second that I saw it out of the side view of my eye, it looked like it had the fur of a coyote which was a blackish color with white or gray fur. I say fur because it was all covered. 

After I hit it I looked in my rearview mirror and I saw what looked like a very huge coyote. I remember seeing just half of the side/back of its right side and a back leg like it was running standing up. I immediately got to a safe area and got off the freeway so I could park and not only check my car but I was just unable to even think about what this thing was. When I checked the front end of my car there was blood on the corner left (driver's side) of the bumper and a small bit of hair or fur. Since my car seemed to be ok I got back on the freeway in the opposite direction and went home. When I got home I had more light in the garage so I grabbed some paper towels and pulled the hair/fur off my bumper which was lodged in between the crack of my bumper. It really looked like fur to me and not hair. It was similar to dog hair.

Now going back to the area where this happened. If you get a map it was on the 15 freeway going south. The Cleveland National Forest is just on the other side of the fence and across a road called Temescal Canyon Road. That road in most spots at that time was very empty and not many houses or businesses. It's close to Cajalco Road which goes up the hill into Lake Matthew and Perris. I still have no idea what that was.

My ex-husband grew up on George Air Force Base in Victorville, CA which is also in San Bernardino, CA just south of Barstow. His father was a lifelong military veteran and one of those who was very old school. If my ex ever asked questions his father immediately told him to shut up and don't talk about "that sh*t". His Mother was a radiology tech and she was the one who noticed that his dad always had a sticker on his uniform when he got home from work. She confronted his father about it because it was a radiation sticker. His father also yelled at his mother and told her never to talk about it. Now, I was with my ex for over 20 years. We still live together because I am chronically ill and disabled and he is also chronically ill so we help each other. In all my years with him, he always told me he saw a lot of things out there on and around the base that he couldn't explain and there was no way he would ask his dad about it because his dad was very physically abusive to him and his brother. Recently, my ex has told me some of his experiences and you were the only person I could think of to tell.

My ex-husband and his friends grew up in the 1980s. Back in the Victorville, Hesperia, and Apple Valley areas were so sparse when it came to people living there. They didn't even have police departments there. They would have to call the San Bernardino County Sheriff. My ex and his friends also spent a large amount of time in the surrounding areas of Death Valley, 29 Palms, the Mojave Desert basically, and the back side of the San Bernardino mountains on the north side by Silverwood Lake and Deep Creek Springs area and also out in Lucerne Valley. They also went to many of the old mines out there in the Mojave Desert. He said one time they had an old car and pushed it into one of the many holes they found. He said they were all amazed at how long it took for the car to hit the bottom. My ex and his friends were sort of like hellions out there because he said there really wasn't anything to do out there except explore and do stupid things like this. He was in his late teens and 20s at the time of these stories.

Recently, he began to tell me more stories with more details. He said one time he was exploring an old mine and he heard a noise behind him. When he looked he said all he could see was these eyes that were much bigger than a human eye and he got scared and ran out of the mine as fast as he could. There are many stories from others about people seeing Reptilian type creatures for lack of a better way to describe it. Many believe, including the Algonquin Native Americans who have been in that area for who knows how long that the Reptilians who used to live in the tunnels under Los Angeles migrated up to the Mojave Desert and there were also these creatures before that. My ex also spoke about things he saw on the base itself. He didn't get specific on this part at all. I could tell it still to this day scared him. Now, my ex-husband is 6' 1" and weighs around 225 and he was about the same back then except his weight was around 275-300 pounds. He is very strong. I once saw him lift the entire back end of my 2010 Nissan Frontier completely off the ground. I had to ask him if he remembered if at any time he had any missing time or strange things that happened to him while he was on the base as a kid or teenager. He thought about it and he said there was some missing time he couldn't remember and he had seen some very strange things but he said he never wanted to talk about the details. My ex is not a person who tells stories. He is VERY "old school" and he firmly believes and lives by a type of code. Such as you keep your mouth shut, don't snitch on others, etc. To this day he is very respected by people in all of those communities and honestly, some people have told me that they do fear him. When I asked why they said it's because they know he doesn't play games and he says what he means and means what he says.

I'm telling you all of this because it has come to my attention that there are now stories being told about a Dogman type of creature in the San Bernardino area. In that area, there is the old Norton Airforce Base which I actually used to go to frequently as I worked for a company that leased land there for materials we had. I will enclose a video I saw this morning and it really is a huge concern. In this video, there's a man who is saying he has been out to these areas and that the Government and hospitals are "dumping" homeless people out in these areas and there have been witnesses who say there is a creature out there that looks like a dog and man combined and that creature is feeding on these homeless people. I'm very interested if you have ever heard of or have any reports on this yourself?

We know there are so many unexplained things in all of those areas. When we lived by Hesperia Lake in 2013 we witnessed something in the sky we couldn't explain. It was hovering over the San Bernardino Mountain approximately over the Big Bear area. It had no sound. There were green and white lights on it and it would shoot across the sky faster than anything I've ever seen out there and then it all of a sudden just disappeared. Like it was there and then in a second it was gone. We also saw flatbed tow trucks on the 15 freeway heading north and it got off in the direction of Edwards Air Force Base. There was a huge tarp covering whatever was on the flatbed but when the wind blew up a corner of the tarp we saw what looked like some kind of craft. It sound super corny but it did look similar to the classic "flying saucer" type craft we have seen on TV when show talk about the UFOs in the 40's and 50's. There have also been many Bigfoot sightings in and around the San Bernardino Mountains and the Yucca Man out in the 29 Palms/Yucca Valley areas. It's no secret to locals at all. Many of us believe there are creatures out there that none of us can explain. Some people refuse to go back out there in the Mojave Desert area because of what they saw. My ex also said when him and his 2 friends were walking out the the Deep Creek area they were stopped by a San Bernardino County Sheriff's Deputy. My ex and his friends explained that they were walking up past Deep Creek Hot Springs to explore. The Deputy then told them that the point they were at was the furthest law enforcement would go and that if my ex and his friends kept going past that point and something happened to them then there would be no one that would go out there to help them. When my ex asked him why the Deputy said there are people and other things out there that are very dangerous and law enforcement was actually told by their commanding officers not to ever go past that point.

My ex and his friends were teenagers at the time and they were definitely the type with the "whatever" attitude and obviously did not listen to the Deputy. My ex said they continued to walk further and after a while, they started seeing these people popping up from behind bushes and yelling at them to stop. My ex and his friends stopped and before they knew it they were surrounded by these people. The people told them that they were trespassing on their land and that if they wanted to go any further my ex and his friends needed to "pay" them. My ex and his friends told them all they had was a small amount of marijuana, $2 in cash, and some food stamps. Back then they were actual food stamps, not the EBT cards we have today. The people agreed to take all of it and let them pass. My ex is very good at talking to people and that's mostly because he is a Psychic Medium and Empath. He was able to talk to them and ask them who they were. They told him they were "The Manson Family Kids". They said they moved out there after Manson and his followers were caught and they couldn't stay out in Death Valley anymore. They wanted to be away from society and they wanted those from that society to stay away. My ex said they talked for a bit and these people also told them they had sightings of strange things out there. Some claimed to have seen Bigfoot as well as some other creatures they couldn't explain and had never seen before but they did not give details.

It has taken me YEARS to talk about most of this. My ex trusted me with these secrets and told me never to tell anyone and I never did, until now. The reason I'm telling you is because I really do believe there may be something in the San Bernardino area that is doing something to these homeless people who have disappeared and in some cases I do believe some human remains have been found of people who were dumped out there and homeless. If there is any way you could or would be interested in having this investigated I think that would be a very good thing. People out there are scared. They want to know what is really going on out there. We used to take long drives out there within the area of the 15 freeway to the west take the 138 east and make a big loop around that whole area into the Hesperia Lake area. With my ex and I both being psychic mediums and empaths, we always felt a sense that we were being watched out there and it was definitely NOT a place we would drive through at night.

The other thing we experienced was we lived in a very active house. I say "active" because there were things that happened in our house that we were so crazy and there was no explanation we could come up with at all for any of it. We asked the Landlord after my ex, my son, and my daughter all had experiences with seeing a big man in overalls in our hallway by my son's room which scared him so bad he refused to go down the hallway and he stayed and slept in our den which was on the complete opposite side of the house. Our landlord was very devout Catholic and we were kind of worried about asking her but we finally did. She said every tenant she has had in that house has told her about paranormal things that happened to them there. She said the tenant before us had passed away from cancer in the den and when she described him she described the same man that my son said he saw standing by his room in the hallway. He always asked us if he could have a fire in the fireplace even in the middle of summer when it was between 90-100 outside. My ex asked him why in the world he would want a fire and my son said it helped him feel safe and made the man in the overalls stay away from him. My daughter also had an experience when she stayed in the back bedroom across the hall from us which was my son's bedroom. One night she came and woke me up around 3am saying her back was stinging. I lifted up her nightgown and three large scratches were raised up off her skin like welts going down the middle of her back from the back of her neck all the way down to about 3 inches above her waist. I immediately took her into my bathroom to get better lighting and I swear these scratches looked like claw marks. I had her sleep with me the rest of the night and the next morning we moved all of her things into the front bedroom where she felt safer and so did I. Another thing that happened was we had a roommate who we found out was taking drugs. We asked her to move and she refused. We were saving up money to evict her and one night I jokingly said "If there are any spirits here how about helping us get her out of our house". Later that day I was in my daughter's room on my computer and I kept getting the feeling I needed to watch my roommate who was in the kitchen making chili. So I watched her put the pan on the stove with her right hand and she had the open can of chili in her left hand. All of a sudden it looked like something had slapped her hand and the can of chili went flying over the stove and bar area into the den and she came running into the room screaming at me "Did you just see that?" she was terrified! I looked at her and said, "Yes. I told you there are spirits here and maybe they don't like you being here".

That next morning her 16-year-old son came to me saying when he was sleeping the night the chili thing happened, he was woken up when it felt like someone was sitting on his chest and the blankets were being shoved under his whole body kinda like in a way to keep him from moving. They were staying in my son's old room where most of the paranormal activity happened. They started moving out that morning and we never saw them or talked to them again. We did have a paranormal team come in and investigate the house. We have a lot of evidence. EVPs, video of a spot in the middle of my bedroom where it looked like hundreds of orbs were shooting out of this one area and they were moving in a zig-zag direction and just everywhere. I had no windows open and the air conditioner was off. No one was in the room when this happened.

My ex and my daughter had told me they had been seeing a little girl who was dressed like she was Nelly Olson in the old Little House on the Prairie TV show. She even had the tight ringlets in her hair. I actually saw her run across my ex's side of the bed one morning when I was making my bed. When we got the EVps back one of the investigators was sitting on my bed and said "Are you looking for your Mommy or Daddy." We all clearly heard a little girl's voice say "Dada" in another EVP from the den area we heard the investigators yelling profanity at the spirits and daring them to do things then we heard what sounded like a little girl running across the laminate floor in the kitchen crying. After that, we asked the Investigators to leave because we did NOT want anyone provoking anything that was in our house. We literally had to fight to get the evidence they collected because the leader was so mad we ended their investigation that she told me there was no evidence and there was nothing in our house. A short time later two team members contacted me and said they left the paranormal group due to the leaders lying to us and they had evidence they collected themselves. They came to my house and we all listened to the EVPs and watched the videos together. They agreed that there was most definitely spirit activity in our home and they said they believed the spot in my bedroom where the orbs were might actually be a portal. They did give me copies of all the evidence but when I started to send it to friends who were also investigators and psychic mediums my new computer all of a sudden crashed. I took it be repaired and the guy asked me what I did before it crashed. I told him nothing I was just sending emails like I normally do. He said the inside of my computer was completely fried and there was no way he was able to retrieve anything from that computer. When I got on another computer to get into the email I used my entire email account was gone. Like someone just deleted the whole thing. I did back up some of the EVPs on another laptop I had and when I went to check that laptop all of the evidence was gone. I had someone who knew computers see if he could get the evidence back somehow and he never could. My Mom used to work for Dell, Compaq which was then bought out by HP and then she worked for Wyle Computers and she couldn't find the evidence on that laptop either.

I don't normally tell people these stories because I got tired of being called a liar and being called crazy. We KNOW what we experienced and we saw the little girl in other places we moved to for years. I had two psychics who didn't know us and didn't know each other tell me that the little girl was my ex's daughter in a past life and she still follows him because she thinks he is her Dad. They both said her name was Victoria. There was even one night when my ex and I had a fight and he was in the den while I was in my bedroom so that both of us could cool off. I woke up the next morning and my ex was sitting on the couch with this blank look on his face. I was still mad at him for the fight but I asked him what happened because I could feel something was not right. He said the night before after the fight in the middle of the night he came to bed. Our bed was one of those big beds that was high off the floor. He said after he got into bed he was facing away from me and facing the side of the bed and it felt like someone took their fist and came down like a hammer on his cheek. He said he jumped up and looked over at me because he thought I punched him. He said I was asleep and there was no way I could have even reached over to punch him in that way because I am only 5' tall and I would not have been able to reach over him to hit in the position he was hit. I walked over to him and looked at his face and he did have a big red mark but I didn't tell him that. I asked him where the punch happened on his face and he pointed to the red mark. I then told him there was a red mark there and he went to look in the mirror.

I know this all sounds so crazy but this IS our life. We both still have experiences we can't explain and always have since we were children. I rarely have someone to share these things with who doesn't think I'm completely bat sh*t crazy lol Thank you for ALL that you do because you really have made me feel like I'm not insane and you have helped me learn a lot about all different things. I appreciate that so much. I don't expect anything to come out of this email but if you ever do get any reports about things happening in the San Bernardino area I would love to hear about it on your show. I do believe these people are seeing something out there that is definitely a danger to people in that area and I do think people in high places do know what these things are. Thank you again for everything and for your time reading this." K

NOTE: The general San Bernadino area is well-known for unexplained activity. The late researcher/investigator Linda Godfrey investigated the Cleveland National Forest after there had been several reports of cryptid canines. She was also part of a TV episode covering the investigation. Lon

(PHOTO) UFO/UAP FLEET Recorded Over Waywayseecappo Reserve, Manitoba, Canada

At around 9:30 PM, on the evening of August 8, 2024, several odd-looking glowing objects appeared to fly over a reserve in Manitoba. Clint Bird shared a photo of the objects on the Canadian UFO Files Facebook Group. It was not his photo; the man who took the video was not sharing it with the wider public, only his close friends.

In his post, Clint wrote: There’s been a sighting on Waywayseecappo Reserve, Manitoba about 9:30pm tonight. 7-8 red lights overseen by multiple witnesses.” He added later, “It looks like a small fleet.” The image does appear to show at least six objects drifting near a building at around dusk. Clint later clarified that the location was “Near Rossburn, Manitoba”.

Sadly, the Canadian UFO Files Facebook Group that he shared it to, like most anything related to the UFO topic nowadays, has been over-run with skeptics and debunkers so it’s no surprise the usual ‘Chinese lanterns’, ‘drones’ and ‘hoax’ junk flooded in the comment section. 

Accompanying his post was a screenshot belonging to one Marlin Leigh Shingoose. It’s unclear if Marlin was the person who filmed the video, but it seems likely. In the screenshot, Shingoose writes: “Seen some UFO over the gas bar this evening. It was bright orange and was moving north by northeast. By [the] time I got out of my truck to video, it quickly disappeared and was moving pretty fast."

Vintage Pennsylvania 'MISSING GIRL' Mystery: BIGFOOT KIDNAPPING?

Here's an interesting story forwarded by a reader. First of all, I've included a transcript from 1898 that was published in the Bucks County Gazette that was forwarded to me:

The Little Wanderer

Alice Rachel Peck, aged 3 years and four months, wandered away from her home in Burn's Valley, Thursday August 25th 1898, in search for her mother, who went on an errand. The little girl traveled an old and unused bark road, climbed over a high and very rough mountain and there, worn out with hunger and without bonnet or shoes, for three day and night had nothing to eat but a few huckleberries, while friends and neighbors were diligently searching for her or her remains.

She was found on Sunday morning, August 28th at half past seven o'clock, by William Bair, sound and well. She neither smiled or cried as two hundred voices rang out the glad tidings of great joy, five miles from her home, in the mountains.

While her parents were in great agony at home, they were soon relieved when hearing the many voices and trumpets, proclaiming that the lost had been found. On the same morning the child was found and in the same vicinity, from 8 until half past 11 o'clock, 13 rattlers, 2 vipers and 2 copperheads were killed.

All returned happy, but some were very near worn out. The majority of those who participated in the child hunt saved their canes as relics of the day.

The reader Marc H. then writes:

"This is a copy of an old newspaper article. A friend posted this on a community Facebook page we belong. My brother-in-law had told me a longer version several years ago. The news clip seemed shorter than his version. He now lives in Burns Valley, Pa. which is just off Rt. 274 northeast of Doylesburg PA.

His grandmother was the Alice's younger sister. The reporter makes it sound like a light-hearted adventure. They were picking berries with a group. Her mother left and went back to the house for some reason. When she came back, the group had thought that the girl had been with her mother. She had her shoes and bonnet when last seen. The area hasn't changed much since then. It has basic Pennsylvania mountain terrain with enough dirt between the boulders and rocks to grow trees and mountain laurel. You have to crawl under or walk on top of it. Her uncle wasn't buying she traveled to where they found her on her own.

Alice was asked how she got over those big rocks. She told him "the big black man helped her." That's all she could tell him. If it had been a black man in that area back then, he would have been well-known by the residents.

One other story I've been told from that time period. Not much in detail. A family from the Doylesburg, PA area would visit relatives in the Fort Loudon, PA and Burnt Cabins, PA area (Franklin County, PA) in the fall for a few days and help butcher. On one of the visits, the morning they were leaving, one man decided to stay and help with some things and walk home later. His walk home took longer than expected. They wanted him to stay as he'd have to walk the mountain in the dark (The Tuscarora Trail now). Saying the wolf would get him. He wanted to get home and said if they loaned him a hay fork he would be OK. He took the fork and starting on his way. Later his mutilated remains were found along the path, with the fork near by. Marc H."

NOTE: It's an interesting story, and could possibly be interpreted as a Bigfoot kidnapping. Then again, it may be something more anomalous, non-terrestrial or ultradimensional. I don't recall any history of this type of activity in the eastern Pennsylvania area, though there have been weird disappearances in the Keystone State. If I could come across similar information, then there may be a nexus of a connection. As far as the incident in Franklin County, PA, there has been a history of anomalous activity throughout the Tuscarora for quite some time. There have been supposed black magic-related attacks by elemental beings. I do recall old reports of wolf-like attacks in the past. Any information would be appreciated. Lon

Young Oklahoma Boy's EXTRATERRESTRIAL EXPERIENCE!

The experiencer's name is Dale (according to the photo tag) and the incident occurred in March 1957 in Commerce, OK (BTW, the hometown of NY Yankee HOFer Mickey Mantle - nicknamed 'The Commerce Comet'). This is a non-common alien abduction report because of the circumstances and detail given by the experiencer:

Commerce, OK - 3/1957: This is a picture of me taken in 1956. I was around 5 or 6 years old. This picture is relevant to the story I am about to tell you. Notice my age of innocence. Notice the season of the year. Notice the clothing I am wearing. The picture was taken in the backyard of the house we were renting on Main Street in Commerce. A small 2 bedroom house that needed to accommodate my Mom and Dad, my two sisters and I, not to mention our dog, Bubbles, and my pet turtles.

It began on a Winter's day close to end of the season. The Winter had been bitterly cold and I was unable to go outdoors and play. Dad had put up a swing set in the yard to the East of the house that previous summer. Not only did it have 2 swings it also included a sliding board and a teeter totter. I could scarcely wait for the weather to warm up so I could take advantage of that fun just waiting to happen.

During this time Mom worked at home, mostly babysitting and taking in ironing. She hated to iron but she did it for the sake of the family. I remember many a day watching her iron her way through a stack of laundry, a stack literally taller than me. She did the ironing in the living room, the only room big enough for the job. It was on such a morning's day that the cold of winter subsided and Mom said I could go out and play on the swing set as long as I bundled up. She said it would take at least five hours for her to finish the ironing, then she had to wash dishes and do some house cleaning.

Joy unspeakable. I couldn't get my coat on fast enough. Look at the picture of me again. The coat and hat I was wearing in the picture was the exact coat and hat I was wearing now. Rushing out the front door with that child like desire to play, it was impossible to hold myself back. A bright light was in the way of me and the swing set. It was an odd, intensely bright light in front of the swing set shining down from the sky like a spotlight hitting the ground directly in front of me.

For me 1956 was a time of innocence. I was young and had none to very little exposure to stories about bright lights coming down from the sky, alien encounters, or UFO's.

The incident I am now continuing to tell you happened. It was not a night dream or a day dream, not my imagination from watching TV or playing superman, not an elaborate hoax I have conceived to entertain you. This is the absolute truth. It did happen! As I put this event into writing I am 64 years old and still feel like it happened yesterday. It is vivid in my mind. It is burned into my mind forever. I have told few people my story for fear of ridicule. After all even my Mother never believed me. Upon hearing the story on the very day it happened she said, “You were just having a daydream, just playing like you were superman. It really didn't happen.”

Believe me or not, here goes..........

As I approached the light it was blindingly bright. It was coming from the sky as far up as I could see. It was in the shape of a spotlight wide enough to swallow me completely if I were to step into it. My anticipation of playing on the swings ignored the light in the direct path of my goal. Running forward I ran into the light. The light enveloped me with a brilliance so intense it was overwhelming. I felt awestruck as well as frightened. The light captured me like an animal in a trap. I could move my arms but I could not escape from the light. It held me!

There was an upward force on my body. It felt like a magnet pulling on me. I felt weightless. Looking uncomprehendingly around me, I began to rise off the ground. The light somehow was pulling me through its corridor toward the sky. Has something gone dreadfully wrong with my mind, was I hallucinating? No, it was actually happening. I was rising in the air. It was not a vivid dream. It was genuine. It was happening!

Looking down I could see all of the yard then the roof of the house. Rising further I could see the block my house was in. Then I could see the entire town of Commerce, all of the streets and the houses. It was as if I were viewing the town from an airplane. Higher and higher, becoming more terrorized with each passing moment.

Out of the light I heard a voice; more like I felt the voice through every fiber of my being. The voice reminds me of the earthquake we experienced in November of 2011. The earthquake is the first one I ever experienced. It rumbled like thunder through the house, shaking the walls and vibrating the floor. Lasting only 20 seconds it left me with the feeling of an awesome power passing through the house. I felt the earthquake in my entire body as the earth shook with the unnerving vibrations.

As powerful as the voice felt it was a soothing voice, a calming voice. At the time I thought it was God speaking to me.

“Do not be afraid,” the voice softly spoke.

“Why are you taking me? Where are you taking me?” I apprehensively asked.

“To take you from the troubles to come,” the voice replied.

“No, I don't want to go,” I answered.

“You are chosen, we are here to take you” the voice explained.

“I want my Mom. I do not want to go. Don't take me. I am afraid,” I pleaded.

“It is your choice. We will not force you. Please consider carefully your decision. We are here to help you escape things to come. To show you wonders yet unseen,” they proclaimed.

“No, send me back,” I spoke with fear.

“Take off your coat and let it drop to the Earth as a sign to us you have chosen to stay with your family and this world full of its corruption.”

Quickly taking off my coat I let it fall down the tunnel of light still connecting me with my yard. The coat drifted slowly. When it hit the ground I found myself standing on the back porch of our house.

“How did I get on the back porch,” I asked myself confusedly. “What happened to the light, it was gone.”

The back porch was screened in and had a door leading in from the steps. I pushed on the door to go out. The door was locked from the inside.

“How did I get in here if the door is locked?” I asked myself.

“Maybe through the door that leads into the kitchen.” I thought. Trying that door, it was locked too. Locked and I could not enter the house.

“I don't understand this, how did I get on the porch with both doors locked?”

Unlocking the screen door I left the porch, went around the house past the swing set, to the front door. I burst through the front door as white as a sheet and barely able to talk. Looking for mom to tell her what had just happened to me.

She was not in the living room. Moments ago she was. She had been ironing a stack of clothes. The clothes had all been ironed and neatly folded. The ironing board had been put away. The dishes were washed. The house had been cleaned. Then I noticed it was beginning to get dark. How could that be, it was morning. How could all the clothes be ironed, the dishes washed, and the house cleaned. I had just been in the house a minute ago. Where on earth did the day go? A minute ago to me was over 9 hours of time. I lost over 9 hours of time. Where was I? Why couldn't I remember living through the 9 hours. Just a minute had passed!

Mom was in her bedroom when I found her. I told her about the light and the voice in the light. How I had dropped my coat through the tunnel of light because I didn't want to leave her. I told her how I found myself on the back porch but I had not entered the porch on my own.

She dismissed it as a daydream. She said I was just playing Superman. That none of what I said had happened. She said it was impossible.

She tried to reason with me. “You could not have been gone for over 9 hours without me knowing about it. I would have checked on you.”

She would have checked on me! I had no answer for that.

“Other people would have seen the light, no one reported it but you.”

I couldn't answer to that either.

I had no proof. Then I remembered, “What about my coat, I'm not wearing it. Where is it?

We walked outside by the swing set and found my coat laying on the ground where I had dropped it through the light.
“See,” I said, “There it is!”

“You took it off when you were playing and left it by the swing set.”

“No, Mom. I dropped it down through the light.”

“You were playing make believe and convinced yourself it was real.”

I couldn't convince her. To this very day she tells me it was just a dream. I still have no proof. I one hundred percent believe it happened. I had an opportunity to go on a journey to somewhere but I blew it, I was so afraid. I wonder what my life would have been like if I had left my coat on.

Footnote: After the day of the light I did have other encounters."

Tracking the ALMAS: 'MONGOLIAN WILDMAN'

The Almas (Mongolian for 'wildman') is a creature reported to be of ape-like appearance that inhabits the mountains in central Asia. Although not as well known as the Yeti and Bigfoot, the descriptions of the Almas suggest that it is a creature more akin to a hairy human than an ape. Physical traits and/or demeanor also seem to be more human-like. I have posted a few narratives referencing encounters with creatures with these descriptions. Though some of the locals and investigators refer to these hominids as a 'Yeti or Bigfoot', there is some evidence to suggest that there is a possible human connection.

Russian novelist Ivan Turgenev met someone that he described as a troglodyte. The horror of the encounter remained in his mind throughout his entire life. Years later, he told the story to one of his French friends, Guy de Maupassant, who wrote:

"I remember a story that Turgenev told us. He was hunting in a Russian forest. He was wandering the whole day and in the evening he went out to a bank of a quiet river. The river was flowing in the shadow of trees, the water there was crystal pure and cold. Turgenev was gripped with a desire to swim in that water.

He took his clothes off and jumped in the river. He was a tall, strong, well-built man, and he was a very good swimmer too. He was enjoying the current of the river with his body and soul. Grass and aquatic plants were caressing him.

Suddenly, someone's hand touched his shoulder. He looked around quickly and saw a strange creature. The creature was gazing at him with great curiosity. It looked like something in between a woman and a monkey. The creature had the wrinkled face of a monkey. Messy red hair was framing the face and flowing behind the back.

Ivan Turgenev

Turgenev was flabbergasted. Horror chilled him to the bone. He started swimming to the bank of the river, even not trying to understand, what he just saw. However, the creature was swimming beside him, touching his neck, back, and feet. Finally, the young man reached the ground and ran as fast as he could. He did not care about either his clothes or rifle. He forgot about everything and was guided only by the immense uncontrollable wish to stay alive. The monster was following him.

It was running very fast too, uttering some squealing sounds. The young man could hardly catch his breath. He was about to fall down on the ground, but he suddenly saw a boy with a whip in his hands. The boy started whipping the creature and it ran away, yelling in pain. The courage of the little shepherd is explained by the fact that it was not the first time that he saw it.

Later, one of the local residents told Turgenev that the monster was a crazy woman who was living alone in the forest and went completely insane. Turgenev made himself believe in such an explanation. Yet, it was known in the 19th century that people do not get covered with thick hair all over their bodies, even if they lived alone in the woods." - maupassantiana.fr

The newspaper Literature Kyrgyzstan wrote in 1990: "Shepherd Omusha's wife once said that she saw a bigfoot not far from the pasture. The bigfoot was standing on a high rock. She started pleading with her husband to leave that horrid place and go to another pasture. The man did not agree, although he got anxious about it, too. He started searching for bigfoots, he saw their tracks but never saw a living one.

One evening he heard his wife screaming very loudly. He grabbed his rifle and rushed outside. The wife was lying on the ground, almost unconscious. She was speechless and could not say a word. She could only point her finger in the direction of the rocks. The shepherd gazed in the direction that she was pointing and saw the silhouette of a running man. He did not hesitate and fired his rifle. In the morning the shepherd found blood spots on the rocks. Omush thought that those creatures would not come back to their pasture anymore. He was so wrong.

Omush's life turned into a nightmare. Several days after he found his little son dead. There was no trace of violence on the boy's body, only a little wound on his neck. Omush was sure that his boy was killed by a bigfoot. He went mad and swore to himself that he would take revenge for his son. He was spending days and nights sitting outside his house, waiting for a bigfoot to come back. But it was all in vain.

One night he fell asleep and when he entered his house in the morning, he found the dead body of his wife. Again, there was only a small red wound on her neck.

Omush let out a scream of grief and desperation. He started wandering in the woods, having forgotten about his sheep and house and food. He was desperately gripped with anger. The only thing that was on his mind was to kill a bigfoot for the death of his family.

Shepherd Shapak took care of Omush's sheep. One day he suddenly saw the sheep getting very troubled and excited. They were bleating and rushing from one side to another. The animals were apparently frightened by something. Shapak could only see a silhouette of a man covered with thick fur disappearing amid bushes and trees. Then he saw another man on the ground. Shapak ran up to him and recognized Omush. The shepherd was already dead, blood was leaking from a small wound on his neck.

Who knows, maybe nothing would have happened, if the shepherd had not fired his rifle first." - "Mysteries Hidden in Central Asia`s Mountains" - Alexey Schetnikov - 2001

Russian cryptozoologist Viktor Rogov relates an encounter in the Kola Peninsula, near the Lovozersky Lake. The lack of trepidation towards humans, even though it was not threatened, is an interesting characteristic:

“In the summer of 1988, together with Maya Bykova, the author of numerous articles and large monographs about the mysterious relic hominoid Misha Gavrilov chose a place for our next expedition. Rather unexpectedly, we received a message from Lovozer (this is the name of the lake situated there), the then-closed area of the Kola peninsula; the message said that several residents came across Yeti. We had received messages of this kind before, but the last information proved that Yeti was noticed close to an inhabited locality. Moreover, yeti terrorized a small hut in the southern part of the lake, a place where fishermen stayed for the night when they went fishing in the lake. It was actually very difficult for me and the other two members of the expedition to reach the mentioned place where the hut stood; we settled in the hut and were in wait for yeti there. The yeti visited the place on the very first night of our stay in the hut. At daybreak, we heard a loud noise from a landfill; someone big was forcing his way through the bushes and rattling the tins. Unfortunately, the windows of the hut didn’t face the side from where the noise came, and we were too scared to leave the hut. On the third night, someone tried to open the door of the hut, then jumped on the roof and walked on it for a long time. Fortunately, the roof was strong enough to stand the heavy walking. The next morning, we saw many footprints left by some unknown animal. One footstep was 34 centimeters long. When we inspected the area in the daytime, besides the large footsteps, we discovered smaller ones; in a mountain crack, we found a rookery where the animal could remain unnoticed and watch us. You should agree that this animal must be intelligent and have at least some skills.

We managed to see the strange creature for the first time only on the fourth night. The yeti was walking around the hut, and its head was on the level of the hut’s only window, at a height of about three meters. And when we saw the objective of our expedition in the moonlight, we were extremely shocked. We felt a wild, almost animal fear. We felt as if we wanted to run away and hide somewhere, but at the same time, we couldn’t stop watching the yeti. Later, we saw the creature several times. And each time we saw the yeti, an awful fear anticipated its approaching. When we felt the strange fear, we realized that the yeti was somewhere nearby. The creature resembled a huge anthropoid ape, 2.75-3 meters high, with broad shoulders and strong muscles. The body was covered with light gray hair of average length, it was almost white on the buttocks. The neck was short and strong, the forehead was low, and the jaws were protruding.

The face of the creature was almost naked, without hair, covered with dark wrinkles; the eyes were small and angry. Almost at once, we understood that the creature was angry because we intruded on its territory and it came to drive us away. We were awfully scared and couldn’t take even a single picture of him.

After the expedition, we brought material proof of the yeti’s existence to Moscow: hair, gypsum copies of its footprints, feces, and drawings; however, unfortunately, no pictures. We sent the hair to the Institute of the Ministry for Internal Affairs for analysis. The specialists said that the hair didn’t belong to any known animal.

That was our last expedition. Since that time, I haven’t had a chance to meet with Misha Garvrilov, the third member of the expedition; he left the hut early in the morning even without saying goodbye. Maya Bykova died in three years after the expedition."

There is also a more recent account of a sighting (with the photograph above) as stated in a letter by Russian cryptozoologist Valentin Sapunov:

"My student from the North Urals got me a photo of Bigfoot. Reserve Jugyd-Va, nearest big city – Inta. The photo was taken by electronic camera at the end of September 2006. Author Anonymous, a hunter having no interest in BF (Bigfoot), made a landscape photo. He got the strange figure. Legends and tales of BF (Bigfoot) in this region exist. Me and my student – Inna Leontyeva – is sure, that nobody has much interest except in joking and falsification, nobody got glory or money from this photo. As for me, the figure is closer to Homo erectus or Australopitecus." - cryptomundo.com - 2/19/2007

Because there are so many older, traditional tales of the Alma and similar creatures among the peoples of central Asia, these sightings of humanoid cryptids bring up the interesting possibility that early humans may have interacted with still-surviving versions of primitive hominids. When asked about this possibility in a USA Today article (after an intriguing pinky bone was found in a Siberian cave that was only 30,000 years old), folklorist Michael Heaney noted that such legends have been known in the area for centuries. “The reports of wild men, although having typical mythic overtones, do often reflect what we know of primitive hominins. The presumed [Almas] of Central Asia could be any one of several pre-sapien ancestors.”

(PHOTO) Possible BIGFOOT Recorded on Vancouver Island, BC

In the September 6, 2024 episode of the How to Hunt Podcast, a user informed the host that in an earlier video, he may have inadvertently recorded a hulking figure in the treeline, possibly Bigfoot.

The host, slightly amused, gave the name of the video in which the figure was seen and admitted that, at the time, he hadn’t noticed anything out of the ordinary. He then proceeded to show (via holding his phone up to the camera) the spot in the older video where the creature appears. His cellphone is blurry but a shape can be seen in the haze of trees. Even at a passing glance, it’s interesting.

Sadly, the host, possibly due to his seeming waning interest in the topic overall, makes no effort to retrieve the original footage (or even the older video) for inclusion in the main video, despite how clearly compelling it is.

The video in question was released on June 24, 2021. It is titled: “It Raised The Camper Up, I Was Eye to Eye With It 4 Ft Away”. At 20 minutes and 18 seconds, the host, sitting in a boat on a river, pans over to a rocky area along the water. Behind it, there is a hillside with some trees. In amongst the trees, a dark shape appears to be standing, facing the water (and the host's passing boat). The figure seems to be quite large, almost hulking, all black and humanoid in shape. It is standing on two legs. No facial features are visible. It only appears for a moment and never moves. Then the host quickly pans away to the rocks, followed by an edit to another spot on the river.

Earlier in the video, the host mentioned that the area in which he was filming (this would have been in June 2021) was the “West Coast Trails” on Vancouver Island. The West Coast Trail is a classic spot for hiking aficionados. It takes between 6 to 8 days to complete and is said to be quite beautiful.

PTEROSAUR? The Great Salt Lake's 'FLYING REPTILE'

An article referencing a 'huge flying reptile carrying a horse in its jaws' was carried widely and published in the Salt Lake City County News. It was also reprinted in several newspapers nationwide including the Pittsburgh Press, Pittsburgh, PA on September 3, 1903 (posted below). It gave an eyewitness account of a gigantic, 'prehistoric monster' on Stansbury Island that could have been a pterosaur:

Pittsburgh Press - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

September 3, 1903

PREHISTORIC MONSTER - Half Bird and Half Reptile Carries Away Live Horses

A terrible, nameless, unclassified creature of the animal world is exciting the curiosity, wonder, and fear of occasional visitors to Stansbury Island, in the southern portion of Great Salt Lake.

This monster, for it can be called nothing else, has lately, it is said, been seen by several persons, but the best account of its characteristics and movements is given by Martin Gilbert and John Barry, two hunters who this week returned from an expedition over the island, in the course of which they studied the habits of this hitherto unheard-of creature for three days.

The monster, which appears to be almost equally at home in the air, on the beach, or submerged in the briny waters of Salt Lake, is probably the sole survivor of a prehistoric species. It is doubtless the last representative of a family whose other members, dead ages since, have left the testimony of their existence in the primeval rocks of the mountains.

Arranging in concise form the description of this incredible relic of the animal world, from the accounts given by those who have observed it at close range, it seems in plain, unscientific language a combination of fish, alligator, and bat.

In size, it is simply tremendous. Gilbert places its length at 50 feet, while Barry, who is an amateur scientist, says that an examination of its, tracks demonstrates that the monster must be at least 65 feet from head to tail.

The head is like that of an alligator, the eyes fiercely glowing, the jaws, capable of opening to a distance of 10 feet from the top of the upper to the lower, are provided with a fearful array of sharp saw-edged teeth, the body, so far as observation goes, is increased with heavy, horny scales. As to this Gilbert and Barry are not positive, as the constant diving of the beast, if such it may be called, into the strong brine of the lake has incrusted it with a thick coating of salt, which save near the wings completely hides the body.

It is due to this unusual phenomenon that the hunters obtained their first sight of the monster. According to their account, they first sighted it at a distance of between one and a half and two miles. The day was clear, the sun intensely bright. Gilbert’s own words of the discovery are:

“We were walking westward from the east shore of the island about 9 o’clock in the morning when suddenly to the northwest there appeared a thing. I don’t know what to call it. It looked to me like a brilliant rainbow folded into a compact mass, moving rapidly through the air.

“In three or four minutes the monster’s position was such that it no longer reflected the sunlight directly toward us, and we would then discern the outline of the form. Its wings were bat-like, stretching out over a great expanse. I should say at least 100 feet from tip to tip. The tail was proportionately short and resembled that of a huge fish. We were not close enough at this time to tell much about the head, only we saw that the jaws were very long. In shape, the head was like that of a crocodile.

“We watched it disappear in the gathering gloom of night but were for a long time paralyzed with fear, not knowing when it might return. It was probably an hour later when it did come back.

“We heard the swish of the mighty wings before it could be seen, but as it drew nearer, by the light of the young moon in the West, we saw that it carried in its great jaws a large horse, which I supposed it had swooped down upon while feeding. The horse was badly crushed and mangled.

“The monster carried its burden into the cave, and we could hear the crunching of its jaws and the cracking of the horse’s bones as the beast devoured its victim. After an hour or so all was so still, and then slipped quietly away in the darkness and returned to our camp on the eastern shore of the island.” – Salt Lake City Co., Denver News

NOTE: The early native Tumpanawach people had an oral tradition about a monster that inhabited the Great Salt Lake area called the Great Mosquito Monster or the Giant Mosquito Monster. This winged creature with a long beak was a terror and was reportedly responsible for the disappearance and destruction of many members of the tribe. Lon

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?

When I was a child, I had several 'phobias' that included the fear of heights and the fear of dogs. I overcame my fear of dogs as soon as I received one as a pet but I have never quite gotten over my fear of heights. I have fought for many years to transcend another fear but this one has been a bit more of a challenge.

Anxiety is a strange disorder because it can strike at any moment. There was a time when could drive a vehicle anywhere and at any time. I had driven throughout the U.S. and Canada for almost 25 years without a problem. But that changed one day in 1997 while I was driving from Baltimore, MD to Cleveland, OH. I had made the trip many times before and usually in about 5-6 hours. But this one day, something happened, though I don't know what it was.

I was near the Pennsylvania / Ohio state line when I suddenly started to go into an unbelievable panic. I was shaking, sweating, and disoriented, as well as experiencing an overwhelming sensation of dread. Well, I had to stop at a rest area and get myself together. I finished the trip and drove back home a few days later, but it required that I stop and take a break every hour or so. I had difficulty driving on open highways and for long distances. I have wondered if these panic attacks are triggered by an anxiety disorder or if have I developed a phobia, or is it one and the same?

Thankfully, because of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)  therapy, which I eventually decided to try, my panic attacks have decreased to a point where it is no longer an issue in my life.

A phobia is an irrational, intense, persistent fear of certain situations, activities, things, or people. According to the American Psychological Association, phobias are one of the most common mental disorders, affecting over 11% of men and women in the world. They can greatly diminish an individual’s social, economic, and personal life. Phobias are the most common form of anxiety disorder. There are thousands of debilitating disorders in the world, including:

Nyctophobia - The Fear of the Dark

Nyctophobia is a disabling disease characterized by a frenzied fear of the darkness. The phobia is generally related to children, but many adults experience it. It is extremely disruptive and incapacitating in adults and almost always leads to hospitalization. Patients experience an uncontrollable fear triggered by the mind’s perception of what could happen and is waiting in the dark. It seems to be based on a mental record of past horrifying events. There is little known about the pathological background and emotional aspects of nyctophobia. However, scary movies, television shows, and ghost stories can manifest the phobia in children.

Patients suffer from various physical, emotional, and mental reactions to the phobia, including chest pain, discomfort, choking, smothering sensations, vertigo, and feelings of unreality, sweating, and shaking. Individuals suffering from nyctophobia have a hard time sleeping. Psychotherapy is one way to treat the disorder, while other methods include desensitization and exposure to the panic stimulant.

Spectrophobia - The Fear of Spectres or Ghosts

Spectrophobia is a specific phobia that involves an intense fear of ghosts and aspirations known as specters. Most adults will admit to being a bit afraid of ghosts, but people with spectrophobia feel that ghosts and specters are powerful black magic phantoms who can steal souls and even lives. Like most phobias, people who suffer from spectrophobia usually have experienced some sort of mental or physical trauma in their lives. This experience then becomes associated with specters, ghosts, or apparitions. The symptoms of this phobia can range from a mild uncomfortable feeling to full-blown anxiety or panic attacks. It is a rare disorder that is usually self-diagnosed, as the individual realizes the fear is interfering with their ability to function. Some treatments include traditional talk therapy, self-help techniques, exposure therapy, support groups, and various relaxation techniques.

Homichlophobia - The Fear of Fog

Homichlophobia is an exaggerated or irrational fear of fog. This disorder causes extreme panic in all patients. Individuals will take extreme avoidance measures towards fog, locating themselves in geographical areas that don’t receive much precipitation. They have extreme imaginations and create horrible visions surrounding the mist and fog. One commonly reported symptom is tunnel vision and crazy feelings of dread. It is a widespread phobia and has been reported in over 67 countries. This condition is treated with various cognitive development techniques. Direct exposure has been tested and performed extremely well in helping these patients cope. People suffering from homichlophobia greatly benefit from behavioral therapy.

Here is a list of the more bizarre and unusual phobias IMO:

Caligynephobia - The Fear of Beautiful Women

Caligynephobia is a form of gynophobia, which is the fear of all women. However, caligynephobia is directed towards good-looking females. It can be an extremely disruptive social phobia, depending on the level of damage. The symptoms include rapid breathing, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, nausea, sweating, panic attacks, and feelings of dread. There can also be individualized specific responses to this phobia. Caligynephobia can manifest itself in adolescent children, adult men, and women, but is most often viewed in men. Some common approaches to treating the disorder are systematic desensitization and cognitive behavioral therapies.

Chorophobia - The Fear of Dancing

Chorophobia is defined as the irrational fear of dancing. It is oftentimes based on the individual’s unwillingness to become aroused or excited. This phobia surrounds social problems, such as the fear of embarrassment or large crowds. Symptoms include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea, panic, and avoidance of places where dancing would take place. The disorder can become disabling. The real problem ensues when the individual is forced into a dancing situation. A good treatment method is personal therapy and some people use hypnosis. Many sufferers take to hiring a personal trainer to improve their dancing skills.

Ablutophobia - The Fear of Washing, Bathing, or Cleaning

Ablutophobia is a phobia that results in a persistent, abnormal, and unwarranted fear of washing yourself. It is most commonly found in women and children. Most patients don't fear water, just when there is intent to clean. It is important to note that many children dislike baths, so ablutophobia is generally not diagnosed in children unless it persists for more than six months. Like all phobias, ablutophobia is often linked to a traumatic past event. It can be serious, as a lack of hygiene can lead to social displacement and disease. It is a situational specific phobia and common treatment methods are exposure and various cognitive behavioral therapy techniques.

Anglophobia - The Fear of the England or the English Culture

Anglophobia is a phobia that includes the fear of the English. The term is also inaccurately used to discriminate against English people. Anglophobia is a true disorder that has historic routes. A 2005 study by Hussain and Millar of the Department of Politics at the University of Glasgow found that the condition has decreased in prevalence since the introduction of devolution. Having an English friend or direct contact with the English greatly reduces the chances of suffering from Anglophobia. Anglophobia has existed in Wales since the Laws in Wales Acts of 1535–1542 were passed by the Parliament of England, which annexed Wales to the Kingdom of England. It is a rare phobia, however, in August 2008 a pipefitter based in Dublin was awarded €20,000 for receiving abuse and discrimination because he was English.

Dendrophobia - The Fear of Trees

Dendrophobia is a very common phobia surrounding the fear of trees or the forest. One of the most complicated factors when dealing with dendrophobia is that the patients oftentimes don’t reveal the disorder, for fear of ridicule and joking. Individuals with this phobia become occupied with the thought that a "dead fear" is linked to the dense trees. They might feel trapped or experience a sense of strangulation. Dendrophobia causes anxiety and intense panic attacks. Avoiding trees can often be a difficult task. Some other symptoms of the disorder are rapid breathing, shortness of breath, sweating, irregular heartbeat, nausea, sweating, and strong feelings of dread. Many documented cases have patients referring to forests and tree land as “the darkness” and “evil.” It is a disabling phobia that can be treated with exposure programs, talk therapy, medication, and other cognitive behavioral therapies.

Cypridophobia - The Fear of Prostitutes or Venereal Disease

Cypridophobia is an irrational fear of venereal disease. The phobia has been around for generations and the name originates from Cyprus and is a Greek word for Venus. It surrounds the fear of gaining a deadly venereal disease. It is a serious disorder and the patients often experience feelings of panic, terror, dread, rapid heartbeat, trembling, anxiety, and can become ill and often faint. The phobia helps fuel bipolar personalities. Patients often suffer from sleep disorders and depression as the phobia expands and greatly damages social behavior. Cypridophobia can often lead to a complete withdrawal from sexual intercourse and isolation from the opposite sex. It is a serious disorder that is commonly seen all over the world.

Methyphobia - The Fear of Alcohol

Methyphobia is an intense and irrational fear of alcohol. People suffering from this phobia fear the consequences of alcohol consumption and in many instances, they avoid everyone who drinks. They will also avoid any situation where alcohol is present, including weddings, holidays, and family gatherings. Methyphobia can directly lead to many social disorders. People suffering from this phobia oftentimes have experienced a real-life trauma related to alcohol consumption. It could be parental abuse, personal damage, or many other causes. There is a wide spectrum of symptoms when dealing with methyphobia.

Some individuals might lightly perspire and feel uncomfortable around alcohol, while others might have serious anxiety and panic attacks. Some other symptoms include dry mouth, numbness, dizziness, trembling, rapid heartbeat, feeling out of control, trapped, or utter doom. The disorder is usually self-diagnosed and can be treated with various behavioral and cognitive therapy techniques. Basically, helping to teach the patient that they don’t have to drink alcohol, but others are allowed.

WEREWOLVES: The MAN-EATERS of FRANCE

The Beast of Gévaudan is a name given to man-eating wolf-like animals alleged to have terrorized the former province of Gévaudan, in the Margeride Mountains in south-central France from 1764 to 1767 over an area stretching 90 by 80 kilometers. The beasts were consistently described by eyewitnesses as having formidable teeth and immense tails. Their fur had a reddish tinge and was said to have emitted an unbearable odor.

They killed their victims by tearing at their throats with their teeth. The number of victims differs according to the source. De Beaufort (1987) estimated 210 attacks, resulting in 113 deaths and 49 injuries; 98 of the victims killed were partly eaten. An enormous amount of manpower and resources was used in the hunting of the animals, including the army, conscripted civilians, several nobles, and several royal huntsmen.

Many explanations, either mutant, prehistoric beast, etc., were put forward at the time and during the two centuries since but none has ever been generally accepted. The important firm fact is that sufficient evidence remains to prove La Bête really did exist and was not just a myth. Locals believed it was a werewolf, or, more specifically, a sorcerer who shape-shifted into a monstrous predator to feed on human flesh. It was supposed to be bulletproof as well, until the day that someone tried a silver bullet.

Descriptions of the Beast varied so much that most researchers believe there had to be at least two of the creatures if indeed the panic wasn't causing the populace to incorporate almost any large animal into these sightings. The color of the Beast's fur was especially variable. Sometimes it was red, red with a large gray patch, or red with faint stripes along the back. Other times, it had black and white patches spotted over its body, with no trace of red. Rarely, it had colors or patterns that didn't incorporate red, black, or white. If you add up all the differing descriptions and then create a composite description out of those characteristics that are mentioned with consistency by most witnesses, then the Beast would look something like this:

"The Beast is a quadruped about the size of a horse. It reminds witnesses of a bear, hyena, wolf and panther all at once. It has a long wolf-like or pig-like snout, lined with large teeth. The ears are small and round, lying close to the head. The neck is long and strong. The tail somewhat resembles the long tail of a panther, but it is so thick and strong that the Beast uses it as a weapon, knocking men and animals down with it. Anyone struck by the tail reports that it hits with considerable force. The feet of the Beast are the hardest to describe. Some say that it has cloven hooves, or that each digit is tipped with a hoof. Others say that the claws are so heavy, thick and formidable that they merely resemble hooves."

The first known attack that provided a description of one of the creatures took place on June 1, 1764. A woman from Langogne saw a large, lupine animal emerge from the trees and charge directly toward her, but it was driven away by the farm's bulls.

On June 30th, the first official victim of the beast was Jeanne Boulet, 14, killed near the village of Les Hubacs, not far from Langogne. The beast seemed to target people over farm animals; many times it would attack someone while cattle were in the same field.

On January 12th, 1765, Jacques Portefaix and seven friends, including two girls, were attacked by the Beast; they drove it away by staying grouped together. Their fight caught the attention of King Louis XV, who awarded 300 livres to Portefaix, and another 350 livres to be shared among the others. He also directed that Portefaix be educated at the state's expense. The King had taken a personal interest in the attacks, and sent professional wolf-hunters, Jean Charles Marc Antoine Vaumesle d'Enneval and his son Jean-François, to kill the beast. They arrived in Clermont-Ferrand on February 17th, 1765, bringing with them eight bloodhounds that had been trained in wolf hunting. They spent several months hunting wolves, believing them to be the beast. However the attacks continued, and by June 1765 they were replaced by François Antoine, the king's harquebus bearer and Lieutenant of the Hunt. He arrived in Le Malzieu on June 22nd.

On September 21st, 1765, Antoine killed a large grey wolf measuring 80 centimeters (31 in) high, 1.7 meters (5.6 ft) long, and weighing 60 kilograms (130 lb). The wolf was called Le Loup de Chazes, after the nearby Abbaye des Chazes. It was agreed locally that this was quite large for a wolf. Antoine officially stated: "We declare by the present report signed from our hand, we never saw a big wolf that could be compared to this one. Which is why we estimate this could be the fearsome beast that caused so much damage."

The animal was further identified as the culprit by attack survivors, who recognized the scars on the creature's body, inflicted by victims defending themselves. The wolf was stuffed and sent to Versailles where Antoine was received as a hero, receiving a large sum of money as well as titles and awards.

However, on December 2nd, 1765, another beast emerged in la Besseyre Saint Mary, severely injuring two children. Dozens more deaths are reported to have followed.

The killing of the creature that eventually marked the end of the attacks is credited to a local hunter, Jean Chastel, at the Sogne d'Auvers on June 19th, 1767. Later novelists introduced the idea that Chastel shot it with a blessed silver bullet of his own manufacture. Upon being opened, the animal's stomach was shown to contain human remains.

Royal Marine Brothers' RED-EYED ALIEN ENCOUNTER

A British reader describes a terrifying encounter with 2 red-eyed alien beings that he and his brother experienced together while they were Royal Marines in 1959.

"By Brian D. Birch - I am a 'seventy-five' year old, who not only has had close encounters with UFO's but I came 'face to face' with two of the 'occupants' when I was aged 'nineteen'. Another 'nut case' many might remark (if not to my face rest assured) I have after all no witness to that encounter that took place here in the UK as my brother Dennis departed these shores to live in Australia in 1969. He would however attest to that which took place ten years earlier on the first Sunday of January 1959 because he shared that terrifying encounter with me. My family members are fully aware of what my brother Den and I experienced that traumatic early morning hour. Because I have reiterated that account of that 'mind blowing' experience countless times since. It happened at approximately 0200hrs when Den and I were en-route home along the A3 route from Portsmouth, on Dennis's 125cc BSA Bantam motorcycle. He had taken our younger brother, Rob back to his Royal Marine Barracks near Portsmouth. Both Rob and I were serving in the Royal Marines and our 'two weeks' Christmas leave had 'overlapped' one another's by one week (his leave commencing one week prior to mine). I had taken Rob's 'railway warrant' - which I was entitled to as a fellow Royal Marine - to meet both brothers at 'Portsmouth and Southsea' railway station, Dennis having taken Rob there on the pillion of his motorbike. My intention was to say 'goodbye' to Rob at the station and then to return home with Dennis. I had little else to do and I welcomed the ride and the company. I remember that neither brother was at the station when I arrived there and I had to wait some time before Den turned up. His motorbike had incurred a 'front tyre' puncture although I have a feeling that I was late arriving at Portsmouth and Southsea railway station through some delay or other. When I at last met up with Den he told me that Rob had continued onward to his barracks as he had to be there by 'three minutes to midnight'. Thus, I mounted the pillion of Den's motorbike well after midnight and very soon we left Portsmouth far behind. I remember that it was bitter cold and I clung behind my brother's body to shield myself from that bitter cold air. I wore only a light, 'blue' summer jacket and light 'fawn' summer trousers. Aside from my uniform I possessed few civilian clothes.

Thus we rode along the A3. I was silent, alone with thoughts of my own return to my RM barracks a week later. Conversing was out of the question. Even shouting loudly was ineffective in the slipstream as we sped along. The whole route was bereft of traffic and eventually we found ourselves riding around the perimeter of the 'Devil's Punchbowl' at Hindhead. At one point, as we were almost about to leave the the 'Bowl behind, so Den suddenly steered the motorbike onto the grass and the engine cut. "Problem?" Dennis assured me there wasn't a problem but that it was 'a good spot to take a breather and to spend a penny!' So we stood there on the swathe of grass overlooking the 'deep bowl-shaped' valley stretching away before us. The sounds of the wind and of the motorbike engine took several minutes to disperse from our ears and it was good to get some respite from that bitter cold wind. Then, as the 'ghost' sound of wind and engine dispersed, so we noticed a strange sound emanating from down in the Punchbowl itself. A sound impossible to describe except maybe that it was almost 'musical' to the ears 'like the asdic of a submarine and yet at the same time really nothing like it'. We had never heard such a weird sound before and there was nothing with which to otherwise compare it. Puzzled and exceedingly curious we elected to make our way down into the 'Punchbowl' to discover the source of that mysterious sound.

There was an initial very steep slope of maybe 'thirty feet' or so that we were obliged to descend on our 'backsides'. Then, with Den leading the way we were able to continue on downwards along a barely discernible but more gently descending track. How long we were making our way steadily deeper, I don't know but we were quite a long way down there and to me the weird 'musical sound' was becoming ever more mysterious and much louder as we came closer to its 'source'. Whats more, as we drew closer to that 'source' I developed a strong sense of 'unease' that persisted as we proceeded. Soon afterwards Den stopped abruptly and turned to me to express that he had 'a bad feeling' and added "I think we should turn back!" Looking back in the direction of whence we had come I could see that it we had in fact travelled an uncomfortable distance away and in hushed tones I readily agreed with my brother that maybe we should indeed turn back. Literally at that precise moment, before we had even turned around, there came a sudden momentarily silence as that weird sound abruptly ceased. What occurred next is equally difficult to describe. There was a sound, almost like that of 'displaced air' I can explain it no better than that. Then, this 'sound' rose vertically into the air, very close to where we stood. We both dropped to the ground instinctively in an effort to silhouette the 'object' against that brilliant backdrop of stars but we saw nothing even though we were able to 'follow' the path of travel by the strange 'sound' it was emitting. It appeared to travel somehow away to our 'right' and then 'swooped' back around to head back towards us.

The terrific 'crash' that ensued as it struck the ground was deafening and ought to have been heard as far away as Guildford, my thoughts at that time! It had me comparing it to that of a large airliner 'crash landing'. There then followed the distinct loud sound of scrub being 'flattened' in its path as it seemed to 'skid' along under the inertia of its descent and then to finally come to a stop some little distance, maybe 'twenty to thirty feet' in front of us. I clearly have, etched into my mind, a distinct memory of the noise of thin branches or scrub scraping along an obviously 'metallic' fuselage, followed by the final 'scraping' sound as that branch broke free. A 'flying object' of some sort had come to a halt. I stood staring at the bushes from where the sound of that 'crash landing' had come. I (we) had seen 'nothing' and yet this 'flying object' by the very sound it made as it hit the ground indicated a large, exceedingly heavy if 'invisible' craft and in my head the word UFO was at the forefront. Then, almost immediately my attention was drawn to 'something' approaching us from the direction that the UFO had 'landed'. I stared ahead, my mind struggling to believe what was actually taking place. Then 'it' emerged. I will describe what we saw, as best to my memory as possible for I was overcome by a feeling of sheer terror. This figure stood some 'eight to ten feet' tall. It appeared to 'glide' rather than to walk. It also appeared to be floating some 'two feet' or so off the ground. It stopped in front of me, so close that I could have touched it. I was literally paralysed with fear, an adrenalin rush so great that it had an opposite effect and I stood there transfixed, unable to move. Then, a second figure identical to the first, 'glided' out from the same direction and stood to the left of the first one, as viewed from my position. Both figures seemed to be 'floating off the ground' and had seemed to glide. The 'body seemed composed of some sort of black material that was convoluted, with like lengthwise 'folds'. The 'head' was encased in an elongated glass helmet' and where the eyes would be was a single, large round-shaped 'green eye' or light. Today I would liken it to a large LED (Light Emitting Diode) but I am not so sure such devices existed at that time. Mercifully (I felt) I could not see the features behind the 'glass' but I had an uncanny and distinct feeling that I would't want to see behind the 'glass' anyway.

I am unable to clearly describe my feelings except for one thought within the sheer terror that overwhelmed me. 'This cannot be happening, but it IS!' Amazingly thoughts of 'those in government would not believe what is happening to me right now but they are fast asleep in their bed's and NOT here in this Punchbowl with me, seeing what I am seeing!' I clearly recall those thoughts. I seem to remember something else, a 'sickly odour'. Was this the 'odour of fear' or did it come from those two aliens? I truthfully do not know! Such thoughts were fleeting, coming to me in a moment of utmost terror. My second thought was of the sudden need to 'look at another human being' and almost in slow motion and with great concentration of effort I managed to turn my head 'left' to look at my brother. Why 'left' when he had been standing on my 'right?' I'm at a loss to explain that one. The two aliens stood a mere 'few feet' away, within touching distance. Utilising all my concentration I slowly, so very slowly and 'mechanically' managed to turn my head to look upon my brother. A second shock now struck me as I saw that I was standing there alone. The shock of this realisation galvanised my hitherto 'paralysed' body into sudden 'action' and turning my body to face the direction that I was facing, for the thought came to me that if I looked back at them again I would not escape. I then ran! That headlong, terror-stricken flight was like a nightmare in itself because I was expecting to be seized from behind. My thought was that I would surely not be allowed to escape after what I had just witnessed. I had no sense of direction at all, I remember only that my one and only desperate thought was to put as much distance between me and 'them' and as possible. I ran, seemingly blindly and I could plainly hear high pitched screaming as I ran. Those screams seemed to be apart from me but may well have come from me, I truly don't know! All I remember was that headlong, panic-stricken flight as 'running in a nightmare' and the full expectancy that I would 'not be allowed to escape'. The next image as I ran so blindly was of finding myself inexplicably at the base of the 'thirty foot' steep incline that we had initially descended. How did I, in that panic-stricken flight manage to find my way back to where we had descended into the Punch Bowl? I was and am unable to explain that one either.

There, ahead of me and scrambling up that steep incline was my brother. I had 'caught up' with him and in later years he told me that he was on a 'rise' before reaching that incline and that when he looked back to check that I was with him he saw to his horror, that I was still standing at the original spot with two aliens clearly seen towering over me. By the time he had scaled that steep incline, I had caught him up. He must have seen me but seconds before I had turned and fled. As a very fit, young Royal Marine and at the same time 'fuelled' with sheer panic, I can answer that one quite clearly. As we feverishly tried to climb that steep incline so we would slip back down a 'foot' for every 'three' we made upwards. Eventually we made the top. Den mounted his motorbike, 'kick started' it and I leapt onto the pillion and away we sped in great haste. Even as we rode at speed along that road I was half expecting to be seized and pulled off that motor-bike and I clung tenaciously, my arms around my brother's waist. I remember that just before we reached the city of Guildford, eleven miles on, Den pulled over and cut the engine. A tall, long ash fence lay close to us and against this we dropped onto our haunches unable to believe what had happened and how we had escaped a 'fate worse than death'. I remember nothing more after collapsing against that fence. I haven memory of arriving home, not even of the rest of my leave. I do not to this day remember returning to my barracks nor of the intense training that followed. I have hitherto told no one outside of the family of our experience at the Punchbowl that 'never to be forgotten' night.

Strangely, I never forgave my brother for 'deserting' me down there. For three years I had no contact with him. Then, I heard that my brother was in an Isolation Hospital at Feltham, where he lived and that he was in a 'serious condition'. Dennis had contracted 'Hepatitis C' and relenting, I went to visit him. What I saw shocked me and totally melted my anger. Den looked like a 'skeleton' with 'yellow skin' drawn over it. He was badly jaundiced and had almost died. A priest had closed his eyes when Den suddenly opened them and the nurse had screamed. It had been a very 'close call'. It was 'years' later that Den explained that he had thought I was behind him when he ran. That only on reaching high ground had he turned to look back and saw that I was not with him but was standing there still with those two 'beings' towering over me. His only thought then was to 'escape and to report what had happened'. Luckily for me that I managed to 'just' catch him up before he'd gained the top of that steep incline, above which his motorbike was parked. It was all of 'thirty miles' journey back to where I lived. Besides, poor Den would no doubt have been taken for psychiatric observation. OR charged with possible 'murder' associated with my 'disappearance'. Do I believe in 'aliens?' DO I WHAT? Oh yes, 'they' exist for sure! You won't find them when you are in the pub, watching TV or fast asleep in your bed, although I must hesitate here because I have since read of abductions of hitherto sleeping persons. There was something else that is relevant to this true story. When I finally talked with Dennis and asked him outright "why did you desert me down there?' He told me "it was those small creatures with red eyes that had almost formed a circle around you". There were hundreds of them. I never thought I would see you again!" I had not seen these 'red eyed' creatures but then, I had not been looking back!

Many years later, on desolate Dartmoor in Devonshire, late one night, on the Northern Moor out of Okehampton, was a strange arc of brilliant white light. Another brother, Jim and his teenage son and daughter were with us. We decided to look closer at this strange arc of bright white light behind a high rocky Tor. The road to that part of the Moor was narrow, too narrow to 'reverse turn' and so would necessitate continuing a few miles further to the tiny 'roundabout' or 'doughnut' to come back on ourselves. After driving along this narrow road, flanked on either side by a steep 'drop' onto a boulder strewn moor for some miles, I began to feel a strong sense of apprehension, a strange feeling of danger, my sixth sense at work! This feeling had barely been with me for long when brother Jim suggested that we should 'turn back' because he 'felt it was dangerous to continue'. However, I had spotted something else, something that made my heart race. I saw literally 'hundreds if not thousands' of 'pairs of red eyes'. Those 'red eyes' did not belong to animals because no animal was capable of such speed and able to traverse that boulder-strewn terrain and the deep craters littering the North Moor, especially at night, besides which the number of those pairs of 'red eyes' was vast. My blood ran cold as I remembered what Den had seen at the Punch Bowl, 'red eyes' exactly what we were seeing there now on that Moor. And without doubt were seeking to surround us. Keeping my mounting panic and concern to myself I heard Jim again express his concern at continuing and I responded with mounting anger due to fear and frustration that I could not 'bloody well turn around' as the road was far too narrow and too high above the moor for the wheels to reach the ground once the wheels left the road. I felt that we had no choice but to continue on to that small 'roundabout' or 'doughnut' that I estimated was about 'four' miles further on. I was driving a Mk 1600 1 Ford Consul and brother Jim asked to get out to 'see if there was a place we do a reverse turn'. All too soon he called out "here Bri, you can reverse here!" I replied "are you sure Jim?" I had doubts, in that the 'drop' appeared to be too deep. He assured me that it was 'okay'. The rapidly moving 'red eyes' had by now spread out ahead of us, crossed over the road and having split into two vast 'groups' either side of that road, both were rushing speedily in our direction as if to encircle us. Where had I heard this before? It was Dennis and the Punch Bowl saga all over again. Thousands of them it seemed to me to be. Now I knew it was vital that we escaped. The memory of the Punch Bowl left little doubt in my mind as to what those 'red eyes' were,'what' they belonged to. Trying hard to control the fast rising panic within me I shakily expressed my doubts that the 'drop' was too deep and would plant the car on it's chassis before the wheels contacted the ground. "No, it's okay!" Jim's words were hardly convincing but by now close to panic myself I drove slowly, turning the steering wheel 'hard over' to greatly effect the reverse turn and trusting Jim's 'observation' I put the gear into reverse and backed the car slowly off the road. A sudden 'crash' ensued and the wheels, it was rear wheel drive, spun above the surface of the ground. We were now completely trapped and helpless! Jim and Jimmy got out of the car and went to the rear. Christine was sitting behind me as her Dad and brother were trying to lift the car back onto the road, without success.

I had seldom experienced such fear as I sat there helplessly watching those rapidly speeding 'entities' that would soon have encircled and been upon us. No one else in my car had as yet seen them. Jim and his son were trying to lift the rear of that 1600cc Ford Consul back onto the road. Jim was a brawny, a strong fellow but all that he and his son achieved was to 'lift' the car only so far a little way 'off' its suspension. The wheels however remained firmly on the ground. The idea fleetingly entered my head to get out and to run those 'nine miles' back to Okehampton, but how when those 'things' were so fleetingly fast? Besides which, I couldn't leave Christine and whatever happened we were not capable of travelling 'nine miles' on foot to escape those rapidly speeding 'beings'. Then as Jim was trying without success to lift the car, so Christine suddenly glanced over to her 'right'; saw the hundreds of 'red eyes' pouring like a flood down that sloping terrain towards us, screamed loudly "What are those? What are those?" Her loud scream signalled for the movement of the car on it's springs to momentarily cease, obviously Jim had paused to see what had frightened his daughter. This was then followed by the sudden and unbelievable lifting of the car bodily in such a way as to slew it around at the same time so that it was facing our escape route out of there. Jim and Jimmy dived into the car and opening the throttle I drove out of that place like the proverbial 'bat out of Hell'. I could scarcely believe our lucky escape. It is said that fear can induce enormous 'reserves' of strength in a crisis and that is what happened with Jim.

I drove as fast as was safely possible on that narrow road that night and upon reaching the top of a hill, some 'mile or two' further on, I stopped the car, engine left running, got out and looked back, Jim likewise. For several seconds we saw nothing but then, there they were, those two vast swarms of 'red eyes' pursuing us, on both sides of that road. I don't exaggerate their numbers, to me that seemed to run in 'hundreds if not thousands'. They 'appeared' to me to be small in stature, that was my impression because it was dark. They certainly travelled at speed over a very dangerous and rough terrain with many deep 'craters' and strewn boulders. After about 'five' stops, atop a hill (a precaution in the event that the car stalled and would not re start we would coast down). Each time we stopped and looked back so a 'minute or so would pass then suddenly, there they were, continuing their pursuit of us. On the 'last' hill I was able to see the lights of 'Okehampton' ahead of us, on our 'right'. We stopped here and again looked back. This time however we saw nothing more of those 'red eyed creatures'.

Dear reader, whether you believe my true narrative I leave with you. I can but sincerely express that it happened as I have recorded it. As a 'reluctant' ufologist I have written of this 'alien encounter' quite some time ago, it was not published on the site I sent it to, neither was it even acknowledged. I wrote it out of sincere interest and possibly in the hope of eliciting a similar experience from others who maybe experienced an 'extra terrestrial' identical to mine. For what it's worth I have made 'pilgrimage' to that same area several times since, without 'success' except for two occasions when I heard that same 'musical sound 'fly' over not so far overhead, just above tree height in fact. Nothing was visible although the sound indicated it had passed over the top of the tall pine trees through which our path led. 'My' car (borrowed from my younger brother) was parked some 'half mile' away at a car-park off the A3 and unable to contain my excitement as my brother said to me "Brian, I have never doubted your story but hearing that sound for myself, well it is certainly not of this World!" I suggested we return to the car, have a much needed coffee to steady our nerves, grab the portable 'excuse for a tape-recorder' (a 'tinny' Woolworth job) and endeavour to capture that weird sound". We made it to the car-park and to the coffee when suddenly brilliant lights lit up the car from behind. A rap on the window and I saw a policeman accompanied by a 'special'. I wound the window down. He asked "what are you doing here?" My short 'fuse' at this offensive intrusion along with my irate words to the effect that it was a 'free country' and to 'clear off' (well, 'clear' was not exactly the word I used ) did not go down well because a second patrol car arrived and my brother and I were handcuffed and incarcerated in separate cells at Godalming Police Station. How could we 'explain' that we were 'UFO hunting? The police cells that we spent six hours in being infinitely the better alternative to a mental hospital!

This incarceration was due to the 'copper' opening the boot of the car and discovering a 'twelve bore' shotgun that I had placed there, intending to shoot rabbits the following morning. I was accused of being 'Harry Roberts' (the guy who had shot a policeman dead, although this man was already in police custody in 1966). Raymond and I were released at 0600hrs the following morning, without charge! I have had other experiences of UFO's one of which was no rest distance away out at sea off Brighton in Sussex. It made no sound, gave the undoubted impression of being immense in size, and moved slowly and silently just above the sea, emerging from a fog bank on the West side to vanish silently into the fog bank on the East side. It was followed then by a second, identical 'saucer shaped UFO' with a 'bee hive' like dome on top and 'small' portholes' around the circumference of the body. Time being 0500hrs. I had been sea-fishing at the time of the occurrence. I also had a frightening experience whilst under canvas at that same seaside resort of Brighton. But that, as they say, is another story!"
