A thrilling account of an encounter with the unknown has been shared on the YouTube channel Creek Devil. The video, titled "What's Hiding in Skamania County's Dark Forest?" features Gerald, a former police officer from Southern Washington, recounting his harrowing experience in the woods. Gerald, an experienced hunter, had been hunting in the Lone Butte area of Skamania County for many years. However, during a hunting trip a few years ago, he had an encounter that changed him forever. While setting up a bait site, Gerald and his friends noticed that the elk in the area had disappeared. This was unusual, as the area was known to be teeming with elk. One day, while Gerald was out hunting, he heard strange noises coming from the woods. At first, he dismissed them as the sounds of animals, but as the noises grew louder and more menacing, he realized that something was not right. Suddenly, a large, dark figure emerged from the woods, causing Gerald to fear for his life. The figure was pitch black, hulking, and over 13 feet tall, with a width of 5 1/2 feet. Gerald described the creature as having a "demon type of sound." Despite his fear, Gerald stood his ground and watched as the creature disappeared back into the woods. After the encounter, Gerald was left shaken and confused. He had always been a skeptic when it came to the existence of Bigfoot, but this encounter made him question everything he thought he knew. Gerald's story is a chilling reminder that there are still many mysteries in the world that have yet to be explained.
