A hunting trip turned terrifying in Hell's Canyon, Oregon during the mid 1990s. A man, who chose to remain anonymous, recounts his experience while deer hunting with his two cousins. They set up camp near the river, with the storyteller opting to sleep in the back of his old Ford pickup. The night was calm and still, with a full moon casting an eerie glow over the landscape. However, around 10 PM, the silence was shattered by a deafening scream that echoed through the canyon. The scream was powerful, raw, and unlike anything the man had ever heard before. It was unnervingly high pitched yet deep, vibrating through the night air with an almost unnatural intensity. For nearly 15 minutes, the screams continued in bursts, the echoes bouncing off the canyon walls. The man had his rifle and flashlight within reach, but he hesitated to turn them on, as whatever it was stood just beyond the glow of their dying fire. Despite the terrifying encounter, the man remained wide awake, gripping his rifle, his heart pounding as he kept watch for the rest of the night. In the morning, he asked his cousins if they had heard anything, but they had slept through it. Now, nearly 70 years old, the man has had many experiences in his life that people dismiss as exaggerated or impossible, but he insists that this was real. The man also shared a woman's encounter in the Oregon Wilderness, where she had a close encounter with a massive, fluid-moving figure that was too tall and moved too gracefully to be human. The figure stood watching her for what felt like an eternity before disappearing into the dense forest. The man left that spot with absolute certainty that Bigfoot exists and felt honored to have been acknowledged by one. This story is a chilling reminder of the mysterious and terrifying creatures that lurk in the shadows of the wilderness. It's a reminder to always be cautious and aware of your surroundings when venturing into the great outdoors. The full video can be found on the YouTube channel, Bigfoot Ebooks 1980s.
