If you're a Bigfoot enthusiast, you'll want to check out this video from the YouTube channel Frontiersman Adventures. The video takes us on a tour of the North Carolina Cryptozoology & Paranormal Museum in Littleton, led by Steve Barcelo, the museum's founder and former journalist.
Barcelo moved to Littleton from New York to escape the high taxes and dying newspaper business. He stumbled upon the town's paranormal activity and Bigfoot sightings, and decided to take advantage of it by starting the museum. The museum features a Bigfoot statue named "Stinky" and displays artifacts related to Bigfoot sightings and other cryptozoology and paranormal phenomena.
One of the most interesting artifacts on display is a log that was thrown at a woman's car, damaging it. The woman claimed that a Bigfoot threw the log at her vehicle and went to the park rangers to file a report. She even donated the log to the museum.
Barcelo has had his own Bigfoot sightings and has been able to photographically document some of them using thermal imaging equipment. He has interviewed dozens of people who have had sightings, including a retired school teacher and a woman who saw a Bigfoot while trying to get to the post office.
The video also touches on the topic of the Gilgo Killings, a series of murders of sex workers whose bodies were dumped along Ocean Parkway in New York. Barcelo worked on the case as a journalist for the New York Daily News.
Overall, the video is an interesting glimpse into the world of Bigfoot sightings and cryptozoology. If you're a Bigfoot believer or just curious about the topic, it's definitely worth a watch.
