Frontier Bigfoot Wars: The Smith Family's Dixie Encounter

A fascinating account of frontier Bigfoot encounters has recently emerged on the YouTube channel HiveSci. In this episode of CrypticCorner, host Miss Bumble Brie delves into two stories of purported Bigfoot wars from the late 18th century. The first tale, set in 1785, unfolds in Dixie Crypted's Storyteller channel and recounts the experiences of the Smith family as they settle in the Appalachian region of North Carolina. The Smith family, led by Jacob, a war veteran, moves to the edge of Cherokee territory in search of solitude. They build a homestead, clear fields, and establish good relations with their Cherokee neighbors. However, during the winter of 1785, strange occurrences begin to take place. A bear, seemingly in a frenzy, attempts to break into their barn, leaving behind its claws and teeth embedded in the door. Jacob, intrigued by the incident, sets out with his sons to the nearby Cherokee settlement of Kioi to consult with an old war acquaintance. The purpose of their journey is not explicitly stated in the video, but it is evident that they seek answers regarding the peculiar behavior of the bear. I find this account captivating due to its historical context and the potential implications of such encounters. The video offers a unique perspective on the relationship between early settlers and the local wildlife, leaving room for speculation about the true nature of the events described. To delve deeper into this story and form your own conclusions, I encourage you to watch the video on HiveSci's YouTube channel. I am always eager to explore new accounts and perspectives on these elusive creatures. Stay curious, and remember to keep an open mind as we continue to unravel the mysteries surrounding Bigfoot and its place in our world.
