In a recent video posted on the YouTube channel Bigfoot Society, horror filmmaker Ryan Cavalline, director of the Mountain Devil Trilogy, shares his experiences in the world of cryptids and the strange. As a paranormal reporter for a website dedicated to Bigfoot enthusiasts, witnesses, and researchers, I was intrigued by Cavalline's journey into the Bigfoot community and the making of his documentary films.
Cavalline, a filmmaker for over 20 years, dabbling in horror and comedy, found himself drawn to documentaries around 2010. This led him to the Bigfoot world and community, where he became a "big footer" himself. His interest was piqued when he discovered that Pennsylvania, where he lived, had its own Bigfoot community. After reaching out to local groups, he began filming their night investigations and learning about the Bigfoot community and its practices.
The Mountain Devil films, named after what the Indians in the area used to call Bigfoot, are a mix of documentary and field exploration. The first film, "The Search for Frank Peterson," combines an underlying story with archival footage and interviews, making for a fascinating watch. Cavalline's decision to name the films Mountain Devil was based on the local Native American history and lore, adding an intriguing edge to the title.
As a curator of this video, I found Cavalline's journey into the Bigfoot community and his filmmaking process to be both educational and entertaining. In addition to learning about his experiences, I also discovered that the term "Cryptids" refers to creatures whose existence has not been scientifically proven or accepted. This includes Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and other legendary creatures.
To sum up, Ryan Cavalline's interview on Bigfoot Society offers a unique perspective on the world of cryptids and the Bigfoot community. By exploring his films and experiences, we not only gain insight into the Bigfoot world but also learn about the importance of local history and lore. I encourage all Bigfoot enthusiasts to watch the video and delve into the fascinating world of cryptids.
