In a recent video posted on the YouTube channel TCC Research, a fascinating account of a "wild man" in Kentucky was shared. The incident took place in Deep Creek, Kentucky, all the way back in May of 1894. This rural area became the site of strange happenings, as people reported that something was stealing their chickens, eggs, young pigs, lambs, and other food items. One morning, F Boston and his sons witnessed the creature heading towards their barn. It was described as being about six and a half feet tall, with clawed feet and cat-like hands. After entering the barn, the creature emerged carrying three chickens. Tom Boston took a shot at it with his gun, but the creature managed to escape. The Bostons and some neighbors followed it to a cave, where they found evidence that something had been living there, including bones and feathers near the entrance. When something close to them gave an unearthly yell, the group decided to leave the cave. Further attempts to capture or kill the creature were unsuccessful, including trying to smoke it out of the cave. Joseph Ewalt provided a more detailed description of the creature, mentioning its great long white hair, hairy legs, and a piece of sheepskin covering its lower body. He also noted that a light came from its eyes and mouth, similar to fire. While this story doesn't directly involve Bigfoot or Sasquatch, it's a fascinating account of a mysterious creature from the past.
