Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, these stories might just change the way you see the great outdoors.


    Tonight’s Stories:🔹 Something Stalks Sugarloaf Ridge – A quiet camping trip turns into a night of terror when something enormous, bipedal, and completely silent moves just feet away from a couple’s tent. The military-trained witnesses are certain: whatever it was, it wasn’t human.🔹 The Beast of Watersmeet – A teenager out rollerblading in the woods sees what she first believes is a large dog. But when the creature stands up on two legs, she realizes she’s witnessing something straight out of legend. A werewolf? A shapeshifter? Whatever it was, she never went camping again.🔹 Are Bears Getting Framed? – In New Hampshire, officials claim bears are responsible for a rash of break-ins, but one researcher has a different theory: Bigfoot. With no claw marks, cleanly opened car doors, and an alarming rise in incidents, is it time to consider that something else is behind these so-called "bear break-ins"?

    Fred, from Alaska, shares two eerie and unsettling encounters with the unknown in the Alaskan wilderness. The first story revolves around 'Patrick and Tina' from the Copper River Valley, who experienced strange whispering and movements during a walk near their home.

    SO EP:566 Sasquatch: The Making Of A Legend?
    Welcome to another episode where we dive deep into the mysteries of the legendary Sasquatch. Today, we embark on a journey through time, exploring the origins of this enigmatic creature's name, the pioneers who paved the way for cryptozoological research, and the modern-day encounters cataloged by the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO). Finally, we’ll take a closer look at the track evidence that has sparked heated debates in both the scientific and cryptid communities.The Genesis of the Name SasquatchLong before Bigfoot became a household name, indigenous cultures across North America shared stories of large, hairy beings that roamed the forests.

    The term Sasquatch itself originates from the Coast Salish word Sésquac, meaning “wild man.” It was introduced to popular culture in the 1920s by J.W. Burns, a Canadian teacher who collected and documented First Nations' accounts of the creature. From there, Sasquatch slowly made its way into the cryptid lexicon, preceding the more famous moniker Bigfoot, which wouldn’t gain traction until the late 1950s.

    The pursuit of unknown creatures isn’t new. In the mid-20th century, a new branch of study emerged—cryptozoology—dedicated to investigating creatures that exist on the fringes of scientific recognition. Figures like Bernard Heuvelmans, Ivan T. Sanderson, and Grover Krantz were instrumental in developing this field, applying scientific methods to analyze claims of mysterious creatures, including Sasquatch. Krantz, in particular, became one of the foremost defenders of Bigfoot’s potential existence, arguing that physical evidence—especially footprints—could not be easily dismissed.

    The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO) has meticulously cataloged thousands of encounters, compiling witness reports from across North America. From fleeting glimpses to prolonged close encounters, the database serves as one of the largest repositories of Bigfoot-related evidence. Patterns have emerged over time—frequent sightings in the Pacific Northwest, eerie vocalizations heard in dense forests, and even alleged physical interactions with the creature. But with this vast amount of anecdotal evidence, the question remains: 

    Are these reports merely misidentifications, hoaxes, or something more?Tracks and the Debate Over Their AuthenticityFootprints have long been one of the most cited pieces of evidence in the search for Sasquatch. Some tracks, like the famous Cripple Foot print analyzed by Grover Krantz, have been presented as near-definitive proof of the creature’s existence. Others, like the tracks discovered by Paul Freeman, have been widely debated, with skeptics arguing they were fabricated. This brings us to an article published in The Skeptical Inquirer by Michael R. Dennett, titled Bigfoot Evidence: Are These Tracks Real?

     In this piece, Dennett critically examines track evidence, particularly those tied to Freeman and Krantz, raising questions about their authenticity and whether belief has clouded scientific rigor.Final ThoughtsWhether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, the mystery of Sasquatch remains one of the most enduring and fascinating topics in cryptozoology. The stories, the evidence, and the ongoing debates keep us questioning what might be lurking in the remote wilderness. As we sift through history, firsthand encounters, and the physical evidence left behind, one thing is certain—the legend of Sasquatch isn’t going anywhere.Tune in and decide for yourself: Are we on the cusp of a major cryptozoological discovery, or is the truth behind Sasquatch forever lost in folklore and fabrication?

    SO EP:565 Bigfoot And Other Beasts In Alaska!
    Welcome to another thrilling episode where we dive into the strange, the unexplained, and the downright terrifying. Tonight, we journey to the untamed wilderness of Alaska—a land of vast tundras, towering mountains, and icy waters—where legendary creatures lurk in the shadows. Our stories come straight from those who have seen the impossible and lived to tell the tale. Strap in as we explore three chilling encounters with Alaska’s mystery beasts—from an eerie roadside meeting with a Dogman, to the looming presence of the Urayuli, and the deep, dark waters where a sea monster may still be hiding.

    Story #1: The Dogman of Matanuska Valley Our first story takes place on a lonely Alaskan highway late one October night in 1998. A woman named Melissa H. was driving home through the icy wilderness when she spotted something unusual in her headlights. At first, she thought it was a moose—common enough in these parts—but as she slowed down, she realized this was no ordinary animal. Standing tall on two legs, a wolf-like creature with massive claws and “spiked” fur loomed at the roadside. Its intelligent, glowing eyes locked onto her, and in that brief moment, she knew with absolute certainty—this thing was alive. Not a Halloween prop. Not a bear. Something else. Terrified, she gunned the gas, fishtailing on the ice, but never looking back. Was it a Dogman? A shapeshifter? Or just an exhausted mind playing tricks? Whatever she saw that night, she never forgot it.

    Story #2: The Urayuli—Alaska’s Own Bigfoot Deep in the southwest corner of the state, near Lake Iliamna, another legend lurks. Called by many names—Arulataq, Bushman, Nant’ina—but most commonly known as the Urayuli, this towering figure is said to be 7 to 14 feet tall, covered in shaggy hair, and armed with freakishly long arms that nearly reach its ankles. Local stories speak of it stealing livestock, raiding campsites, and even swimming through the icy Alaskan waters. While similar to the classic Sasquatch, its eerie glowing red eyes and its ability to vanish without a trace set it apart. In 1982, a hunting guide snapped a blurry photograph of a massive humanoid silhouette standing atop a ridge near Dillingham. Could it have been the Urayuli, watching the land it has called home for centuries?
    Story #3: The Kodiak Island Sea Monster Alaska’s mysteries don’t just walk the land—they also swim beneath its frigid waves. In 1969, a fishing crew scanning the ocean floor off Kodiak Island made a shocking discovery—a sonar reading of a 200-foot-long creature lying at the bottom of the sea. Its shape? Unmistakably dinosaur-like, with a long neck and fins. Then, in the summer of 1971, a group of fishermen reported seeing a grayish, 30-foot-long beast with a horse-like head swimming near their skiff. One crew member fired a rifle at it, but the creature dived beneath their boat and resurfaced on the other side. And in 2002, a fishing vessel in Uganik Bay had a terrifying close encounter when a massive neck and head emerged from the depths, only to disappear moments later. The following summer, something rammed their boat from below with enough force to nearly knock a man overboard. No whales were in the area. Whatever it was, it was big.

    Are these encounters proof of ancient creatures, cryptid legends, or something more supernatural? From the shadows of the forests to the icy depths of the sea, Alaska holds mysteries as old as time itself. One thing is certain—when you venture into the wild unknown, you never know what might be watching you.

    SO EP:563 Bigfoot, Coyotes, and Feral People!
    This week’s episode dives deep into the wild and mysterious, exploring two fascinating theories that challenge conventional thinking about the Sasquatch phenomenon. Could Sasquatch be power scavengers? And what if some of the eerie vocalizations and sightings attributed to these elusive creatures might actually have a more human explanation—feral people living undetected in the wilderness?We begin by unpacking the idea of Sasquatch as power scavengers. The term refers to animals that opportunistically exploit the kills of other predators, but what if Sasquatch falls into this category? We explore documented patterns of behavior in known scavengers like bears and wolves, and how Sasquatch sightings near fresh carcasses might support this theory. Could their ability to scavenge explain their elusive nature and the sparse physical evidence left behind? We discuss witness accounts, theories on their potential dietary habits, and what it might take to survive in the vast and often unforgiving wilderness.Then, we shift gears to another controversial topic: feral people.

    These are individuals or groups who, either by circumstance or choice, live entirely removed from modern society. Some researchers and skeptics have suggested that feral humans could be responsible for certain Sasquatch-like vocalizations, strange movements in the woods, and even direct sightings. Could it be that the untrained eye—and ear—might mistake a hidden human for the legendary Bigfoot? We explore the psychological and environmental factors at play, weaving together real-life accounts of feral communities with the enduring mystery of Sasquatch lore.Throughout the episode, we examine the overlap between these two theories and their implications.

     What does this mean for the pursuit of Sasquatch evidence? Could both scavenger behavior and feral humans account for separate pieces of the puzzle? Or do these theories simply highlight how little we truly know about the wilderness and its secrets?Join us as we peel back the layers of these compelling ideas, balancing science, folklore, and imagination. Whether you’re a hardcore Sasquatch believer, a skeptic, or just curious about the strange and unexplained, this episode offers a fresh perspective on one of the world’s greatest mysteries.And don’t forget to share your thoughts and theories with us—we’d love to hear what you think about this week’s journey into the unknown.
