From Bigfoot Evidence: Sasquatch Conversations
Bigfoot Evidence has a story about the stranger side of Sasquatch encounters; this one includes a white bigfoot and conversations with the being:Bigfoot Evidence: Woman's "Amityville Horror" Moment With a Bigfoot (Get's Out!):
In Arkansas, she claims that she and her sister saw a white figure dash behind something one day, but it was not very tall. According to the woman's sister, it was a baby bigfoot who also became a playmate for the sister's young son, who claimed that he held conversations with the young bigfoot.

CRYPTOZOOLOGY ONLINE: Still on the Track: NEIL ARNOLD: The Satanic Ape
Excellently spooky account of a haunted place on Wallasea Island, Essex, from Cryptozooogy. This isn't Bigfoot related at all and I don't mean to suggest there is, but there is an interesting report of an ape like creature in this story that discusses zooform phenomena.
Still on the Track: NEIL ARNOLD: The Satanic Ape: n the case of some zooform phenomena, it seems that we are dealing with negative energy as a conjurer of monsters. For instance, the county of Essex has several cases of weird manifestations presenting themselves, but they are forms which clearly are not of some biological or zoological order. At Wallasea Island there was once a place called the Devil’s House which sat on the bleak marshlands flanking the River Crouch. The house, was more for a farm-like abode and took its sinister name from its owner, a chap named Daville, although author Eric Maple notes that’, according to the old records it was known as Demon’s Tenement as far back as the time of Charles II.’

Divinorum Psychonauticus: the Bigfoot-Ancient Alien connection- solved!
Excellent points there Erich! I particularly appreciate his connecting us with Bigfoot as regards our so-called "junk dna" and the Sasquatch. Divinorum Psychonauticus: the Bigfoot-Ancient Alien connection- solved!

Guest Blogger: Imogen "I Know What I Saw..."
I'm pleased to have guest blogger Imogen share her piece on encountering Bigfoot:
I Know What I Saw…
My interest in the Bigfoot phenomenon started when I read the following
passage written by a friend who recounted a close encounter she had with
the creature itself. Her account is brief, but compelling, and read as
follows:
“At
the risk of sounding crazy … I once saw something like a Bigfoot
myself, high in the Cascade Mountains in the dead of winter, on a
moonlit night, while descending a mountain snowfield. After watching
"it" approach for about one minute, and when it had come to within about
200 feet, I turned to my climbing companion to say that I was having a
REMARKABLE hallucination. But before I could say a word I saw that my
companion had gripped his ice axe with both hands and had raised his ice
axe above his head in self-defence. So NOT a hallucination. "It" was
about ten feet tall and leaving BIG footprints in the snow. The
scientists will tell you that there cannot be such creatures, and their
reasoning is persuasive - unless, of course, you happen to have seen
one.”
She
makes a good point in the last sentence, and it is one that cannot be
gainsaid by any scientist. In the words of the famous UFO documentary,
“I Know What I Saw”. Yes, people can be mistaken. But not so mistaken
that they are hallucinating a ten foot creature stood in front of them
at the same time as another person to their right. Sure, some sightings
could be as a result of substance abuse But how many? Seriously.
Watching the Paul Freeman footage from
1994 in the same mountain range, I just wonder if it is the same animal
she saw. To my mind the Freeman footage is compelling. If I ever had
any doubts, my friend’s story and the Freeman footage combined dispelled
them forever. She would never lie about such a thing, and the fact that
there were two witnesses just strengthens my belief in her story. There
is nothing that is ten feet tall she could have mistaken it for.
Likewise, the Freeman footage is too poor in quality and too early,
technically, to have been faked or tampered with. Along with Jeffrey Meldrum’s analysis of the
casts Freeman made, I find it to be credible testimony. Sometimes what you see is what is there. It is as simple as that.
Paranormal Theories
One much-debated aspect of the Bigfoot phenomenon centres around the
possibility of Sasquatch being paranormal in nature. Perhaps, like Mexico’s mysterious dwarfs,
and the fairies of long ago, there is transcendent quality to the
creature. It seems to play with us, in the way that orbs tantalise us
with their appearance and instantaneous disappearance. Could Bigfoot,
some wonder, be a manifestation of the same inexplicable entities, in
crypto-human form? What both UFO and Mexican dwarfs have in common is
Close Encounters of the Third Kind. People not only see them, but are
materially affected by them in the real world. The Mexican dwarfs knock
people off their bikes and frighten children playing ball after dark.
They are violent and malevolent in nature, and there have been dozens of
reports, from quite traumatised, and in some cases injured, victims.
There is no explanation for the encounters, but they have happened. The
same is true of UFO encounters, of course, with real physical craft
being witnessed and filmed all over the world, in the thousands. Some
YouTube UFO posters have actually given up uploading their footage as
they have so much of it. Orbs are a daily occurrence, and yet there is
no explanation for them either.
Is Bigfoot A Paranormal Entity?
For me, no. I did consider the possibility that the creatures could be
another type of ‘alien’ for a while. The fleeting sightings, the
vanishing, the lack of hard evidence, the total inability of anyone to
have secured irrefutable proof – to me these put Bigfoot into the
‘Nessie’ camp. I have read widely on the UFO phenomenon and the
different ‘species’ of alien that are reported by witnesses varies
enormously. From the ubiquitous ‘greys’, to the mysterious ‘Nordics’,
all the way to the Reptilians and towering Annunaki, there is no
shortage of close alien encounters, with no end of strange beings. Each
witness knows what they saw. But does it make it real? It’s a subject I
have still to tussle with, but since reading on this and other sites I
have read enough evidence – which I did not know existed, I may add – to
convince me that Bigfoot is a real world creature. A gentle, shy
creature in fact. The gentleness of movements
and the relaxed body language of the being captured by both Paul
Freeman’s video are rather touching. I am glad to read that there are
people speaking out against the Kill and Capture mentality of those who
want another trophy on the wall and the attendant fame that would no
doubt follow. What I saw on the Freeman footage is a vulnerable looking,
gentle creature who needs to be protected, and defended, and certainly
not hunted and killed.

The Gralien Report � Bigfoot is an Archetype: Sasquatch Reigns Supreme among “Folk Devils”
Micah Hanks writes a intriguing article about the more mysterious happenings in some Bigfoot encounters:The Gralien Report: Bigfoot is an Archetype: Sasquatch Reigns Supreme among “Folk Devils”:
From time to time there are reports that fall under the “Bigfoot” category that are, to put it simply, present a lot of disturbing problems for eyewitnesses. While these “high strangeness” reports (an expression that had become innate to the study of odd occurrences tucked within the realms of Forteana) are in the seldom minority, they are often overlooked by the greater cryptozoology community for a number of reasons.
Primarily, this has to do with the fact that the study of creatures like “Bigfoot,” by virtue of the designated title cryptozoology (the study of hidden animals), approaches this mystery from the perspective that these entities, whatever they may really be, are in fact some form of biological entity that closely resembles humankind. To wit, if indeed the Sasquatch myth is anything more than a myth, the best avenue, and thus the most widely accepted approach to their study, seems to be afforded us in their treatment as flesh-and-blood entities. However, when peering a bit deeper into the mystery, these “beings” may boast a number of curious elements that beg further consideration… and may similarly warrant different modes of thought applied to understanding their overall meaning.

Bigfoot Evidence: More Photos From London, Oregon Of The "most significant footprint find in the last 40 years" [Bigfoot Tracks]
More on the tracks found just south of Eugene, Oregon:Bigfoot Evidence: More Photos From London, Oregon Of The "most significant footprint find in the last 40 years" [Bigfoot Tracks]
I have a lot of respect for Thom Powell and I believe Cliff Barackman is sincere, but I just don't quite believe the tracks are the real thing. Good god, have I become jaded? Cynical? It's not that, I surely hope not. Just, well, seems too good to be true. So many damn tracks! Just so ... convenient. On the other hand, it's interesting the tracks are at the water's edge. Bigfoot and water, interesting connection there.
Well, time will tell, obviously.

Should Bigfoot be shot? Hypothetical... - JREF Forum
A JREF thread posing the question: "Should Bigfoot Be Shot?" Many are against shooting a BF, but some are all for it. But the following is disturbing for not only the pro-kill belief, but the "it's okay to "wound" a possible human" stance:
Should Bigfoot be shot? Hypothetical... - JREF Forum:
Should Bigfoot be shot? Hypothetical... - JREF Forum:
I'd shoot to cripple, not to kill. Chances are it's a human; no felony charges involved if you don't kill them. And on the (very) off chance that it is the Boss of the Woods, a crippled one still proves the existence of the species.Then there's this comment from notorious skeptoid (ain't no such thing as a Bigfoot!) "Parnassus":
Anyone who takes a shot at a "bigfoot" should be sent to jail, and have his hunting privileges permanently removed. I'd never hunt with anyone who had some idea that bigfoot was real.Slightly confusing: he thinks shooting Bigfoot merits jail time (agreed!) yet he wouldn't go hunting with "anyone who had some idea that bigfoot was real."

Right in my own backyard! "Bigfoot Evidence: Holy Matt-Moneymaker-on-a-pogo-stick! Over 120 Sequential Bigfoot Prints Found Near Eugene, Oregon!"
Bigfoot Evidence: Holy Matt-Moneymaker-on-a-pogo-stick! Over 120 Sequential Bigfoot Prints Found Near Eugene, Oregon!
However, and I am loathe to say this, positively loathed, dahlings, but the image of the print shown at Bigfoot Evidence looks too good to be true. (That doesn't mean it isn't true, or that I don't think Bigfoot doesn't exist.) It just looks too damn perfect. But if the prints are of Sasquatch, --- how wonderful.
Two weeks ago, on February 12th, a man named Toby and his friend, who is a hunter, discovered Bigfoot tracks near a tree line south of Eugene, Oregon. According to estimates by Thom Powell, Guy Edwards (BigfootLunchClub.com), and Finding Bigfoot co-host Cliff Barackman, the tracks consists of over 120 prints.Oh my god so many questions. South of Eugene, how far, where? Is the Toby mentioned Toby Johnson of OSS fame? So many areas within a crow's shout from my house in the small-mediumish city of Eugene that are wooded and perfect habitat for all kinds of beings, including, of course, Sasquatch.
South of Eugene, over 120 footprint tracks were found in a clay-mixed substrate that was a perfect material to capture and record footprints. We believe the tracks were made as recently as Saturday February 11th, although the first few prints were not discovered until Sunday the 12th.
