Bigfoot sightings and encounters continue to roll in from all over the country, and the Pacific Northwest is no exception. The YouTube channel Most Amazing Elite has compiled a list of recent Bigfoot sightings and incidents in the region that are sure to pique the interest of any Bigfoot enthusiast.
First up, a very recent report from Ohio. A family driving down State Route 350 towards State Route 123 South of Oregonia spotted a large black figure standing near a bike path while they were slowing down for a crossing. The father described the figure as having no obvious clothing pattern and appearing to come from the woods. The family wasn't the only one to spot the creature, as there have been at least nine credible sightings of a Bigfoot-like creature in the same area.
Next, we have a video of Bigfoot howls in Lur City, Ohio. The video, uploaded by We Do It Outdoors, shows the cameraman roaming through a forest as strange, eerie howls and tree knocks can be heard in the distance. The channel may have started as a lawn maintenance channel, but they've recently delved into the world of Bigfoot, and some of their videos are definitely worth a watch.
In July of 2021, a man in Jefferson County, Ohio, reported finding a large footprint in his chicken coop, as well as all of his chickens having gone missing. A Bigfoot investigator named Jim Thompson came to investigate and discovered more footprints that were about 4 ft apart from one another. The man also reported hearing strange yelps coming from either end of his property and getting an eerie feeling that something was watching him.
Susan Fenchak, a former skeptic turned Bigfoot enthusiast, reported spotting a strange hairy creature near her home in Loudenville, Ohio. She has also recorded audio of what she believes to be a Sasquatch while out in the wilderness near her home. The two-minute clip is definitely eerie, with distant howling that doesn't sound like a wolf and classic "whooping" sounds that Bigfoot researchers often describe.
A man in Mahoning County, Ohio, reported seeing a strange creature one evening after returning home with his wife. The creature was large, fast, gray, and silver-brown, and covered in fur. It moved on all fours and was built like a barrel. The man and his wife both saw the creature, which they described as not being a bear or a dog.
In 1992, a man named Don Keading captured footage of what he believed to be a large hairy creature walking into the forest in eastern Ohio. The footage is grainy and taken from a fair distance, but it's still worth a watch. Keading described himself as a skeptic before this encounter, which makes his account all the more interesting.
In 1978, the Manura Monster case made headlines in Ohio. A family living in Manura reported rocks being thrown at their home by a large Bigfoot-like creature. The family also reported seeing large footprints in their backyard and hearing strange noises. The case gained significant media attention at the time and has since been the subject of a 2015 documentary.
Ohio Bigfoot investigator Mark Dorth has been investigating Sasquatch sightings for over 30 years. He has collected a fair amount of evidence, including footprints, audio recordings, and his own firsthand encounter. Dorth's story of encountering a large bipedal hairy creature while exploring an old strip mine is definitely worth a listen.
Finally, filmmaker Seth Breedlove had his own Bigfoot encounter in 2011. While riding down the countryside of Manura, Ohio, he spotted a large bipedal creature with brown hair running through a clearing on a hill about 50 yards away. Breedlove has since gone on to create a series called The Bigfoot Project, which can be found on the Small Town Monsters YouTube channel.
These recent sightings and encounters in the Pacific Northwest are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Bigfoot sightings and activity. Be sure to check out the full video from Most Amazing Elite for even more exciting Bigfoot content.
