Bigfoot Society

During a solo elk hunt in the mountains of Eastern Oregon, Mark Parker began hearing the same unfamiliar grunting sound at approximately 9:30 every morning. Days later, a brown face appeared from behind a tree and watched him from only 35 to 40 yards away.

That encounter led Mark into years of investigation with Darrell Adams near Cottage Grove and the mysterious Owl Moon Lab. He describes enormous tracks, rocks thrown from the timber, food disappearing between trail-camera photographs, unexplained lights, and a massive figure crossing a forest trail after dark.

Mark also shares the deeply unsettling experience that occurred when he returned to Eastern Oregon, slept beneath the open sky, and asked whatever was nearby to give him a sign.

“We’re gonna have to stay up all night and sleep in the day ’cause I can’t do this again.”

Tobe Johnson and Alicia Phifer set up camp near the Patterson–Gimlin trailhead at Bluff Creek, California. During their stay, they heard unexplained metallic snapping outside their tent and experienced unsettling nights that left Tobe questioning whether he could stay.

The researchers behind Olympic Strange Days join Jeremiah Byron to recount that three-day campout—and the questions they carried home. What were they hearing beyond the tent? What happened when they turned their thermal camera toward the road?

The conversation continues on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula, where an outdoor recorder captured unusual vocalizations and something the couple describes as rapid running near their cabin. Hear the recordings, their firsthand recollections, and the details they’re still trying to understand.

Mike thought he was watching a bear outside a remote cabin in the mountains of North Georgia.

Then he noticed the hand.

About ten years ago, Mike was staying alone near Elijay, Georgia, where his stepfather had been dealing with an animal getting into a deer feeder. One morning around 9:15, Mike finally saw something feeding outside.

He watched from the cabin window as the encounter unfolded only 30 yards away.

The longer Mike looked, the harder it became to explain what he was seeing. A hand. A face. An unusual brow. Massive shoulders. Dark brown hair. For a moment, he wondered if a hunter wearing a ghillie suit had wandered onto the property.

Mike kept what happened that morning to himself for years.

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, he finally walks Jeremiah through the experience in detail—the distances, the physical features he remembers, his attempts to identify what was outside the cabin, and the reason this encounter eventually returned to the surface nearly a decade later.

This is Mike's firsthand account from the mountains near Elijay, Georgia.

Note: This is the original version of the interview with 8 minutes that were cut for the public. If you like me chit chatting at the beginning then you'll like this. 

A former MUFON investigator went to Oakridge, Oregon searching for answers. One night outside her cabin, something came out of the darkness and headed straight toward her.

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Patti Valvo shares what happened during an investigation that took her deep into some of the most active and mysterious locations in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Oregon.

Near Oakridge, Patti heard unexplained knocks along the edge of the Willamette National Forest and experienced small objects landing near her as she walked back toward the cabin. Then came the encounter that sent her running—a brilliant ball of light descending near the forest and rapidly closing the distance behind her.

Patti also takes us to Sparks Lake, where she documented enormous barefoot impressions near the water, and Waldo Lake, where strange tree formations added another layer to an area already connected to disturbing eyewitness reports.

Her journey also includes Area X in Southeast Oklahoma, Board Camp Crystal Mine in Arkansas, a remote property near Lake Thunderbird experiencing unexplained vocalizations and animal activity, and an unsettling discovery beside a creek in an undisclosed location.

This is a journey through Bigfoot country with a former UFO investigator who started asking questions about what might be happening in the forests—and found herself experiencing things she still cannot explain.

Mike Wanders has spent years traveling alone into some of North America’s most remote wilderness, searching the places where Sasquatch reports refuse to disappear.

In this episode, Mike joins Bigfoot Society to share what happened during his expeditions into Vancouver Island, Bluff Creek, Mt. Hood, Prince of Wales Island, the Hockomock Swamp, and other legendary locations.

Deep in Clayoquot Sound, a water taxi left Mike alone beside an abandoned cabin surrounded by old-growth rainforest. As darkness settled over the cove, the atmosphere changed. Hours later, something enormous moved over the treetops.
Mike also reveals the one experience he considers his strongest possible Bigfoot activity, including sounds captured on audio in an extraordinarily remote section of Vancouver Island.

Then there's Prince of Wales Island, Alaska—where nearly everyone Mike spoke with seemed to have a story.
This conversation goes deep into what happens when an experienced wilderness traveler enters some of the most active Sasquatch locations in North America and starts asking one question:

What is actually happening out there?
