We packed up portable voice recorders,

so it's not just some crazy story.

We've got proof.

Your heart is pounding. Your skin is crawling.

I not only heard this, I felt it.

These things are really screaming,

and it really petrified me.

It's a show of force.

They want us to leave.

What you looking at there, bud?

Look. Huh.

It's a great picture. Yeah.

My name is Michael Feltner.

My son, Jordan, had the Bigfoot casebook.

In the casebook, it had reports from Ohio,

Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania,

and I was just like, "Wow, that's cool."

Hopefully tonight's the night.

Tonight's the night.

My name is Mike Miller.

I've always been outdoors,

always enjoyed hiking and fishing.

I developed an interest in Bigfoot

when I lived up north in Dayton.

On the local news, there was a report

about a sighting in Ohio,

which I laughed and thought, "You've got to be kidding me."

Well, you know, you get curious.

Well, I got online, and I stumbled into the bfro website

and when I clicked on Ohio,

I expected to see one or two stories and that's it,

and so many reports dropped down,

I about fell out of the chair.

Uncle Mike!

Hey, hey. How you doing?

Good.

Ready?

I'm ready. Hey, Mike.

How you doing, buddy?

Oh, it's going to be a great night.

Whoa. Insurance.

Yeah, me too.

So where we going?

Oh! Ah...

I heard of six official sighting reports

of Bigfoot-sasquatch type creatures in Adams county,

so we started doing our own investigations.

Adams county is very remote.

You can park on the road and get out a table and chairs

and set it up and have a party in the road,

and you wouldn't have to move for anybody.

Yeah. Let's get going.

Let's do it.

Adams county is a massive area.

Real old farms, old barns,

real tall grass and tons and tons forest.

The road going in Adams county is one way in, one way out.

If you sprained an ankle, break a leg,

you're not going to crawl your way out.

If you do this out here, nobody is going to know it.

First stop was, like, a little, small metal bridge.

This looked very promising.

We decided to stop at that spot on the bridge

because there was good echo.

There was a little bit of a creek right there,

and there was a nice ridgeline

and just very dark, spooky place even in the daytime.

Teenagers.

All right. Let's go.

Whew.

We brought lots of bug spray.

Yeah.

I had a flare gun.

I had night vision, and I had a machete.

Mike Miller has his flashlights, and he has a handgun with him.

Hopefully we won't need that tonight.

I decided to bring a gun that night,

and most night we go out is because you never know

who you're going to run into.

There are other wild animals in the area.

There's bears. There's mountain lions.

Just to be safe.

The kind of gear we packed up is portable voice recorders.

We also have an amplified listening device

to maybe hear if anything is moving around.

Ready?

I did a vocalization.

I did a scream to see if anything would reply.

Nothing.

Nothing? Try again.

We do howls because they howl,

and we're mimicking what they do.

It's almost like if you go into the woods into hunt a deer,

and you're using a deer call,

you're talking to the deer, bringing the deer in.

Bigfoot probably doesn't care about that.

We do the howl the creature supposedly does.

A howl is kind of like a lure.

We do howls to bring them in, bring them closer.

Let's see if that livens things up.

Let me listen.

It hears that, and it's territorial.

It comes toward you to see what's going on.

Who's in my yard?

It mimics him.

It sounds just like him, just a hell of a lot bigger.

The first sound we heard was "Woo,"

and it sort of tails off.

We've heard owls.

We've heard deer.

We've heard about everything in the woods that makes a noise,

and this is different.

Do you think we just heard a real call?

I was feeling, at that moment, excited.

At the same time, a little nervous,

because, hey, we got company.

I believe the creature that howled,

it was sort of a warning out to other members of its kind that

"Hey, we got some visitors."

We just waited to see if it would happen again.

Seems like things are quieting down some.

Let's go closer to where the call came from.

Yeah. Sure.

It's almost like going fishing.

If they're not biting here, you're going to move down

to another part of the lake and try your luck.

Things died down, and we packed up and moved.

Can you believe that?

No freaking way.

I wanted to see more.

I bet you this is going to be the night

where we actually see one for the first time.

We feel good.

My son is sleeping, but me and Mike feels real good.

We get our gear going, and we wanted to try to,

you know, let's see if we can stir some stuff up.

I believe the creature that howled,

it was sort of a warning out that,

"Hey, we got some visitors."

The drive from the bridge gets very rugged through the woods.

As we made out way through the night and the darkness,

the only thing you could really see

is what's illuminated in the headlights,

and it's just trees and more trees

and pine trees and foliage,

and it's just dark.

The lights don't Pierce the canopy too well,

so you're only seeing maybe a couple feet in.

Beyond that, it's just pitch black.

It puts you on edge.

You're apprehensive.

It's hard to tell which, you know, where you're at.

Then you come out at a graveyard.

I'm almost positive that I read this was one of the places

that they saw an actual encounter.

You want to set up here?

Yeah, let's do it.

You see the tombstones,

and then there is one tree

that's in the middle that's got a big cutout.

It's very creepy, the creepiest tree I ever seen.

It's sort of crazy.

It's like a graveyard in the middle of nowhere.

I'm going to put it on that tombstone right there.

I don't want to go too far from Jordan,

so I'll set up here.

You go down and do that.

I didn't want to leave too far because my son was in there,

and he gets kind of spooked kind of easy,

but we're probably 5, 10 yards from the vehicle.

The graveyard is 50 yards or less probably,

and it feels somewhat uneasy,

but at the same time it was reassuring

because it wasn't totally enclosed by woods.

There was a little bit of an opening there,

and it felt you could breathe.

It felt like you weren't totally boxed in.

We get our digital recorders.

We got them set.

We place on the vehicle facing behind us,

and the other recorder, we place it on top

of one of the tombstones.

We decided to go at night because we believe

these creatures are active and moving at night.

I have a wooden baseball bat I use

where you'll hit on a tree and see if they'll knock back.

Primates do that, where they wood knock back at you.

So we did that, see if anything replied.

Nothing replied.

Nothing.

Try it again.

We heard three knocks.

It seemed like it was about 60, 70 yards,

and then the sounds just stop.

We've heard birds rustling.

We've heard owls, crickets.

It's a very odd feeling when all noises

when you're hearing all this racket,

and then everything just stops.

It's stopping for a reason.

What it means to me when the sounds of the forest

stop at night is that you've got company.

Then nothing happens for about 25, 30 minutes.

We're in a complete silence...

...then there is a sound.

At this point things died down.

Was walking in the woods.

Whatever it is, it's getting closer.

We freaked out.

We definitely got company.

Nobody knows where we're at.

The only one that knows where we're at that night is my wife,

and we hear this whistling.

What the hell was that?

And that sound is like a whistling.

At this point, Mike and I just get really still,

and we listen because we don't know what means for them.

You know, is that a warning? Is that aggressive?

Is it just, you know?

But we're on like a high alert.

We know they're coming closer.

There is definitely something here.

After hearing the whistle, I felt nervous.

We were being approached.

The vocalization that we heard went off again.

A very distinct, somewhat aggressive howl.

Our adrenaline is off the roof.

I do not believe it's the same creature.

Oh! Ah!

What is it, dad?

My son, Jordan, out like a light,

woke straight up.

Woke up literally out of a dead sleep,

and it scared us to death.

What is it? What's going on?

It's nothing. It's nothing.

It's probably just animals or something.

The howl to me was aggressive.

If you step in someone's yard and the dog growls,

that's what it sounded liked to me.

You know, recorders can't do that justice.

We heard that with our own ears.

Here, here. Hold this. Hold this.

God, there's more than one.

I feel very uneasy because at first it seems

like there's three of us, and there's one of them,

and when the sounds are coming to you

form two different directions,

that means that you're being surrounded

and there is more than one.

After the howl, the coyotes sort of joined in.

This thing mimics the coyote.

This thing literally starts going to,

"Wha, wha, wha."

Give me that. Give me that.

You got to be a primate to sound out a vowel sound.

That's what blew my freaking mind

because there is nothing else on this planet

that can do that other than a human being or that.

Is that thing going?

Yeah.

And then the coyote goes nuts.

It sounds like a pack of coyotes,

and then one actually sounds like

it's being mangled or strangled or something.

It's like something has it by the throat.

It almost sounds like it's pleading

for it's life the way it's howling.

I want to go, dad. Dad, I want to go now. I want to go now.

The adrenaline just runs right through you.

Your heart is pounding. Your skin is crawling.

You're almost in a trip-out mode, flipping out.

You're like, you know, "This is happening.

This is actually happening."

Make it stop, dad. Make it stop. Make it stop.

It's a show of force.

They want us to leave.

Make it stop.

They want us to leave.

Jordan! Go back to the car.

Go back to the car. Go. Go.

I've never heard coyote do that before,

and it was terrifying, absolutely terrifying.

We're just sort of standing there in disbelief.

Normally that much stuff doesn't happen.

I mean, we're shocked.

For some reason, these things have come in,

probably because because no one in that area

has ever done that to them.

We've stirred them up.

Dad!

Jordan, are you okay?

Get out of here now! Let's go!

Jordan is white as a ghost and is really shooken up,

and he's ready to leave.

He's had enough.

Dad, come back!

We was all just full of emotion.

Come back now, please!

Sounds like it's quietening down.

Yeah. I can't hear anything.

I'll have a look.

See anything?

No.

Nothing.

When I got back to Mike and then everything seemed to calm down,

we're like, "Well, let's call it a night, you know."

Hopefully we do have this recorded.

Let's see if we can here it and all that.

"Let's just roll out of there."

We got what we need. Let's call it a night.

Yeah. Let's get out of here.

Dad, what's happening?

Come on, dad.

Hey. Did you hear that?

At that point I'm getting alarmed

because they are moving towards us.

Come on, now! We have to go! They're coming!

Sounds like it's coming closer. Come on.

Let's go. Let's go.

Move. Move. Move.

And I'm driving as fast as I could,

and then I put my foot off the gas,

try to slow us down because I'm like,

"Oh god, I don't want kill us," you know?

What was that, dad?

I don't know what it was, but we got a recording of it.

When we're driving down the road,

our adrenaline is off the roof

because all this happened in one night,

and we go farther down the road.

Hot damn! I can't believe that.

Look out!

And we stop because there is a deer.

You okay?

Where the heck did that deer go?

What was unusual about this deer is it didn't look at us

one time, even with the lights blasting on it and everything.

It never looked at us.

Instead, it's gaze was fixed.

Stay here.

It was looking straight into the woods

like it seen something or knew these creatures was in there.

The howls from the cemetery came from behind us,

probably half a mile back,

and now where we're at now, the howls are in front of us.

Dad, how could it be in front of us?

Just stay close to the car.

It means things have moved down the ridgeline

and are following us.

As we move, they are moving.

Dad, how could it be in front of us?

Just stay close to the car.

Ridgeline and are following us.

As we move, they are moving.

It quit screaming.

It was quiet.

Mike, come on. We got to get out of here.

Mike, Mike, just stay with Jordan, please.

I was so excited.

I was excited and scared at the same time.

You want to see something like this

and want to do this in this field,

but when you have this experience,

it scares you, and it scared me.

I look up, and I see something standing by a tree.

Mike. Mike, there is something over here.

What is it?

I-I don't know.

He saw a shadow, a dark shape.

I just see something standing by a tree,

but it was not moving.

I could not make out no features,

but it looked pretty massive.

I'm in a freeze position, and just,

I am absolutely freaking out.

Dad, I want to go home now. Please, come on. Let's go.

Mike, stay close to Jordan.

It looks about 6, 7 feet tall,

but it blends in with the tree, and it's not even moving.

This thing howls.

It startles him, and he back pedals and almost falls.

I move towards him...

...and he's stunned.

That petrified me.

I'm literally walking backwards trying to get to my vehicle,

and I can't even run.

I can't feel my feet.

It's just like, "Man, I'm trying to get out of here",

but I can't."

Come on, Mike. Get back to the SUV now.

I felt like I was going to pass out.

Come on!

Are you okay?

Are you okay?! Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

You know, Mike is freaking out.

We get back in the vehicle.

Come on. Let's go.

I've never had that much adrenaline in my life.

We're not even tired.

We're just so wound up.

When I seen that mass figure and when it did that,

then I knew all knew all along from the whole time

from the cemetery

that this was Bigfoot-type creatures.

This had to be them.

Come on. Let's go.

Well, we get in and we shut the door,

and it's pitch dark, and we're like,

"Is this thing coming down the hill or not?"

It was like we were being played with.

You know, it's one thing when something yells at you

or whatever to tell you to leave.

This is in a different vein.

It's like you're being toyed with.

Come on. Let's go.

You know, it's one thing when something yells at you

or whatever to tell you to leave.

This is in a different vein.

It's like you're being toyed with.

We have to go. We have to go.

Come on. Come on. Let's get out of here.

I felt emotional,

just a roller coaster of adrenaline,

and I got white as a ghost.

To me, it feels like that's the same creature...

...probably from the cemetery earlier that night.

My heart is coming out of my chest,

and I got felt like I was was sick to my stomach,

and I'm about ready to pass out.

I got to pull over.

I got to stop.

I can't do it.

Mike. I got to take a breath, like...

Hang on.

I don't know what that was.

Come here. Have a seat.

We're farther down. We feel like we're pretty safe.

Here. Hold on.

Here.

We heard two scream whoops that's probably 40 to 50 yards.

- Dad, are they following us? - Shh, shh, shh.

This is more aggressive.

This is more of a direct aggression.

There is, like, one then another,

and I'm standing there in, like, disbelief.

I'm going to try to scare it, you guys.

You guys stay right here.

For some reason these things have come in.

I didn't want them to sort of have the last word.

Jordan. Come here. Come here.

It's going to be okay.

You guys stay right here.

Mike pulls his sidearm just for piece of mind

because he thinks this thing is coming

right out of the woods at us.

I hear what sounds like air escaping a tire,

And I move closer to the woodline

because I'm wondering what the hell this is.

What's going on?

And at that point, I can tell what I'm hearing

is something drawing air in, like.

Filling its lungs.

I've got goosebumps talking about this,

but way more massive.

I cannot do justice how powerful this sounded.

This roar was so deep and so intense,

I not only heard this, I felt it.

Like if you've been to a concert and, you know,

the drums and the base hit you in the chest, you can feel it.

This did that to me.

At that point I'm getting alarmed

because they are moving towards us.

To me, it meant only one thing.

It meant get the hell out of here or else.

I mean, it was the final warning.

You know, we went in trying to stalk them,

but, you know, the tables were turned.

They were literally stalking us out of there.

That was the scariest moment for me.

At the spot we're at, if this thing steps out

of the woodline onto the road,

it's going to be within handshake distance of us.

Well, when we get in the vehicle,

I put it in drive and just floor it.

I took the wheel to the left like this,

and both my wheels came up on the right.

Mike almost drives off the cliff

just because of the pure adrenaline and panic.

We're in panic mode at this time.

We're safe. We're out of there.

It's been a hell of a night. Let's go home.

I get home.

It's in the middle of the night, and I wake my wife up.

I told her what happened, and I start to literally cry

because I cry because I know that that night

we just got ran out by Bigfoot-type creatures.

Wow. I mean, we not only experienced that,

we got part of that recorded,

so it's not just some crazy story, you know.

We got some proof.

It changed my life because I realize

there is more in this world than you know.

I just kept playing it over in my mind,

realizing how close they were, how we were followed out,

especially when that thing, the last one that roared,

like King Kong, when it sucked all that air in.

I mean, I'm never going to forget hearing that.

And if we wouldn't have left

or we would have done something else,

I think that night would have got tragic.
