A recent video posted on the YouTube channel Obscured Reality has caught the attention of Bigfoot enthusiasts. The video, titled "Johnstown, PA Bigfoot EP 123," delves into an old Bigfoot story from 1980 in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Hosts Mark and Stephanie take viewers on a journey through the extraordinary and often frightening world of the unknown, discussing topics such as the paranormal, UFOs, alien abduction, lost civilizations, mythical monsters, and other unexplained mysteries. In early October 1980, the Charles Fulton Family of Slip Up, near May Lick, reported seeing a white-haired creature with pink eyes, standing more than 7 feet tall and weighing over 400 lbs, at their doorstep. The creature attempted to get into the house and assaulted a chicken. Charles Bolton chased after the creature, but it evaded him and disappeared into the night. A week later, on October 10th, 1980, the Taytmey family of Ying reported a similar incident. James, whose nickname is in quotes, described the creature as manlike and big, making a thumping noise as it ran. Two loaves of bread, a frozen chicken, and a pack of hot dogs were missing from their freezer. The family's food products, which had been on an enclosed porch, were found in the yard by police and neighbors who came running when they heard the gunshots. The video raises several questions about the creature's behavior and intelligence. If Bigfoot is real, would a Bigfoot know what a freezer is and that there's food inside it? Bears are known to be intelligent and understand what coolers and trash cans are. If there was some type of creature like this, it's possible that it could be smart enough to understand modern conveniences. Heinstein, one of the men who searched the woods for the perpetrator, found bear prints that were about 14 inches long and 6 inches wide in the creek bed. He stated, "There is no denying it." However, without proof, the rest of us are left to wonder. This video is a fascinating look into an old Bigfoot sighting and a reminder that there are still many mysteries in the world that are yet to be explained. Watch the video and let us know what you think. Is Bigfoot real, or are there other explanations for these sightings?
