Intriguing footage from Buckeye Bigfoot's YouTube channel has caught our attention, and we're excited to share it with our fellow Bigfoot enthusiasts. This video, titled "The Only Thing Standing Between Him And A Massive Bigfoot Was His Father," features two compelling encounters from Ohio. First up, we have Adam McElroy, a resident of Ashtabula County, who recounts a dozen Bigfoot encounters over a three-year span while hunting at night and during the day squirrel hunting. The most memorable encounter happened on October 2nd, before the hunting season opened. Adam was hunting solo with his dog Penny when they started hearing strange noises. Suddenly, they heard a roar so loud it felt like it washed over them. Adam, understandably, froze in fear, but he managed to draw his .357 Magnum and slowly made his way to Penny, who was cowering under a big tree. Next, we have Wayne Campbell, who grew up in southeast Ohio and used to go out looking for fossils with his father. One day, while fossil hunting, Wayne saw a face looking back at him from across the creek. He describes the face as having fur, leather-like skin, and dark eyes. Wayne saw the face twice, but chose not to tell his father about the encounter. Both stories are chilling reminders of the mysterious and elusive nature of Bigfoot.
