Finds in the Files: Bigfoot's Strange Blood and Other Things

 I've been having fun going through the hundreds of books in our "book room." Over the years I've called it the Room of Doom, The Hell Room . . . Karyn Dolan  once suggested I call it the Room of Opportunity to change my response to the room. I used to go in there and just freak at the mess, the boxes, the sheer number of books. Overwhelmed. Once I literally fainted when I walked in there; I just couldn't. Deal. At. All. 

But some shift happened lately, thankfully. I've made a lot of progress and every day I go in there and work in the room. Actually, I think of it as play. I can't wait until I get to the point I can unleash my inner librarian and start organizing the books  -- all UFO, cryptid, paranormal and folklore related -- that I'm keeping. Not to mention the books of various genres (vintage sci-fi, westerns, detective, and being an X-Files nerd, X-Files ephemera.)

Found these gems today:


An article from a 1989 issue of FATE by Jon Erik Beckjord on "weird" Bigfoot blood.




Classic from Ivan T. Sanderson. Pyramid 1968

Giant Sasquatch Creature in the Pick-up

 Don't know what my subconscious was trying to tell me, but I dreamt the other night I was driving a white pick-up truck. The bed was longer than usual. Everywhere I went, I bought along with me my "Sasquatch" except it wasn't really, more of a cousin to Bigfoot. This creature was huge; a good ten feet tall, thin, with long shaggy glossy dark brown fur. It was extremely gentle. Happy to be folded up into the back of the truck and driven around.

As I go from town to town, I am irritated that no one is interested in this amazing, fantastic being. I mean, it's a damn Bigfoot! Sasquatch! Just about. Close enough. You'd think people would be curious, and want to know all about my odd creature but no. They just glance at it then move on. A few are a little scared but what do they know -- they haven't even checked it out to know to be scared or not.

Synchronicity: Husband's Bigfoot Dream

 My husband has an active dream life, as do I. But he's never had a dream that he recalls about Sasquatch. (Nor has he seen one.) But this happened: the same night I was listening to a Coast to Coast program with Darcy Weir (http://www.occultjourneys.com), which my spouse did not know I was listening to -- he had an intense dream about a Bigfoot. 

He told me the Bigfoot was a good eight to nine feet tall. Scary, incredible, and the BF came across the water. Wading, up to his waist, across the water. Plus, Jim dreamt he was a woman. He/she and others were watching the Sasquatch come across the water, towards them. The BF was scary, they were hiding as they watched the Sasquatch being ripped apart people. Jim did not know why the BF was doing this. 

No, I don't think this is any magic demonic omen. Simply an interesting bit of synchronicity regarding images and timing.
