Have you heard about the chilling park ranger horror stories shared by Jack Simmons, a search and rescue officer with the US Forest Service? In a video posted on the YouTube channel Old Hillbilly Horror, Simmons recounts his harrowing experiences in the wilderness, including encounters with mysterious creatures that can't be easily explained. Simmons describes a particularly harrowing search and rescue mission in which he and his team were looking for a missing couple, Ryan and Jessica Matthews, near Devil's Peak. As they searched the treacherous terrain, they stumbled upon a hiking boot with the name "Jay Matthews" written inside. That's when Simmons saw something strange moving between the trees. "It was too tall, too thin, and its limbs were unnaturally long," Simmons recalls. "I could just make out the glint of its eyes reflecting the light. I froze, my heart pounding in my chest. Whatever it was, it wasn't human." Simmons and his team managed to make it through the night, but they never found Ryan and Jessica Matthews. And they weren't the only ones who had seen strange creatures in the area. "Some of the older rangers said it wasn't the first time something like this had happened," Simmons says. I found this video to be both fascinating and terrifying. It's always exciting to hear firsthand accounts of possible Bigfoot sightings, but it's also a reminder of how dangerous and unpredictable the wilderness can be. If you're interested in learning more about Simmons' experiences, I encourage you to watch the full video on Old Hillbilly Horror's YouTube channel. And as always, if you have any Bigfoot sightings or encounters of your own to share, be sure to submit them to Squatchable. We're always eager to hear from fellow Bigfoot believers.
