Hello and welcome to the program
UFO Warning. 

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,119
In this episode we're talking 
about a Tennessee Bigfoot 

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,240
Roundup. 
That's correct, a Tennessee 

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,800
Bigfoot roundup. 
This first encounter happened on

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,520
December 14th, 2004. 
County Tennessee location 

6
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,360
details South of Maryville, TN 
about 20 miles from the North 

7
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,200
Carolina line. 
Nearest town Tallahassee, 

8
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,720
nearest Rd. 
Highway 129. 

9
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,560
The observer tells us it was 
unusually warm for mid-december 

10
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,600
on this day and my buddy and I 
were hunting in an area known as

11
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,080
Chilliwee. 
About an hour before sunset we 

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,680
climbed out of our deer stands 
and met in a small hauler about 

13
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,280
100 yards from both of our tree 
stands. 

14
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:49,080
We were walking back to the four
Wheeler when we heard a very low

15
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,880
rumble in the hauler where we 
had just met. 

16
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,360
We were now about 35 yards from 
the hauler, almost in a field, 

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,480
so we decided to be still and 
sit on the edge of the field for

18
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,840
a minute to see if we could hear
anything else. 

19
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,800
At this time we thought it was 
just a grunt or a blow from a 

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,880
deer we had scared. 
We waited approximately 10 

21
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,640
minutes hearing a loud splash in
a small drinking hole. 

22
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,960
My buddy and I looked at each 
other and wondered what it was. 

23
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,400
We waited another 10 minutes 
hoping a deer would come out, 

24
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,520
but then we heard a second 
splash. 

25
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,240
At this point we realized it 
wasn't a deer. 

26
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,360
We walked probably 20 yards and 
saw what we believe is a 

27
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,080
Bigfoot. 
It was approximately 7 to 8 feet

28
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:36,840
tall and I would guess it 
weighed 300 to £350. 

29
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,840
My friend and I were almost in 
shock at what we had seen. 

30
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,120
The Bigfoot saw us and didn't 
seem to care that we were 

31
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,640
watching it. 
It lingered around the area for 

32
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,760
another minute before walking 
over small Ridge where we lost 

33
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,320
sight of it. 
To be honest, we were too scared

34
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,560
to go look for it, so we went 
back to the house and told 

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,600
everybody there. 
They said we were crazy and that

36
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,880
it was just a bear. 
I've been hunting bears for 

37
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,840
years and am familiar with their
movements. 

38
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,480
This was no bear. 
I know this because it never 

39
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,360
dropped down on all fours the 
entire time we watched it. 

40
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,880
We probably saw it walk a total 
of only 30 to 40 yards, but I am

41
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,720
100% sure it was no bear. 
It was some sort of human ape 

42
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,720
creature. 
I am positive it was a Sasquatch

43
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:24,080
and so is my buddy. 
We heard a very low rumble slash

44
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,520
moan that came from the holler 
below us. 

45
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,560
A small Creek runoff trickles 
down the holler from the other 

46
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,560
mountains and forms a little 
drinking hole which is where we 

47
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,240
heard a loud splash. 
This is unusual because there is

48
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,880
no clear explanation for the 
noise and then it says 

49
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,640
otherwise. 
It says yes, my hunting buddy, 

50
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,840
we were both deer hunting. 
Other stories, no time and 

51
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,520
conditions. 
It was about 4:30. 

52
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,400
The lighting was dim but still 
enough to see lots of mountains.

53
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,080
Chilliwee Lake is very close. 
Man, isn't that something you 

54
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,200
just imagine being out there in 
the middle of the timber like 

55
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,160
that? 
See this thing? 

56
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,080
If we go down here, we see the 
follow up investigation says. 

57
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,280
I spoke with both witnesses. 
This is Stan Courtney, an 

58
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,720
investigator. 
They both stated that the animal

59
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,280
was grayish brown in collar and 
always upright, walking on two 

60
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,600
feet. 
The arms were noted to be very 

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,760
long and the animal was built 
heavily. 

62
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,760
It seemed to walk as if it were 
a massive bulk. 

63
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,240
Both men are avid outdoorsmen 
and are acquainted with bears 

64
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,160
and other wildlife in the area. 
Yeah, they saw something and it 

65
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,840
does not sound like a bear to me
at all. 

66
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:28,320
That's down there from 
Tennessee. 

67
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:29,920
We'll go ahead and look at this 
next one. 

68
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:36,120
This reports from October 23rd 
at 2003 Tennessee Campbell 

69
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,240
County. 
Looks like this one must have 

70
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,680
hit the news because it says 
location details not available 

71
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,120

La Follette, UT vet primate not 

73
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:53,520
killing cats As WVLT Volunteer 
TV news first reported last 

74
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,640
week, there is some monkey 
business going on in Campbell 

75
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,640
County. 
Some people said they have seen 

76
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,480
a primate terrorizing residents 
and pets. 

77
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,640
Campbell County's 911 Center has
been receiving calls about the 

78
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,880
creature for weeks. 
They're saying it's a 

79
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,840
chimpanzee, a large chimpanzee, 
said 911 dispatcher Camille 

80
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,160
Barnes. 
It's killing their cats. 

81
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,839
Barnes lives in the College Hill
community, which is where the 

82
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,840
creature has been sighted. 
She believes it came into her 

83
00:04:22,840 --> 00:04:25,440
house. 
My basement door was left open 

84
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,160
and something came in and 
scattered all the clothes and 

85
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,840
stuff stored in the basement, 
she said. 

86
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,560
Utah Veterinary School primate 
expert Doctor Edward Ramsey said

87
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,120
the creature that is making its 
presence known at Kimball County

88
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,520
is likely not a chimpanzee like 
those found in the Knoxville 

89
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,960
Zoo. 
Chimps are rarely are really 

90
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,000
rare as private pets, so chances
that this is a chimp are pretty 

91
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,320
remote, he said. 
He did say it may very well be 

92
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,160
some type of monkey. 
There are unfortunately still a 

93
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:55,760
fair number of monkeys in 
private hands, he said. 

94
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,680
We've had one or two instances 
where an animal escaped from a 

95
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,840
private zoo and Pigeon Forge. 
Ramsay said that whatever kind 

96
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:06,080
of primate it might be, he does 
not believe it's responsible for

97
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,880
the recent pet deaths in the 
area. 

98
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,040
Odds are, if it killed anything,
it wouldn't kill many and it 

99
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,880
wouldn't kill repeatedly. 
Virtually every primate is 

100
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,720
herbivorous. 
Now, I'm not sure about that. 

101
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,680
I have seen documentaries where 
chimpanzees were eating meat, so

102
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,600
I don't know if that's actually 
true. 

103
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,320
But anyway, he said that if a 
monkey is on the loose, it's a 

104
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,280
perfect example of why most 
exotic animals don't make good 

105
00:05:31,280 --> 00:05:32,880
pets. 
We don't think it's appropriate 

106
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,080
for people to keep specifically 
macaws as pets because their 

107
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,920
ability to carry fatal diseases,
He said. 

108
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,880
They're not trainable. 
They're not trainable in the 

109
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,640
traditional animal sense of the 
term. 

110
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,120
La Fiat Animal Control is 
investigating situation. 

111
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,240
Knoxville Zoo officials said if 
the animals caught, the zoo 

112
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,840
likely would not be able to take
it and it may have to be 

113
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,120
euthanized. 
Well, it seems strange that 

114
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,280
somebody would be missing a 
monkey and not reported to me. 

115
00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:59,200
This is just kind of another 
case of normalcy bias. 

116
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,400
This next report is from October
20th, 2003. 

117
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:07,120
It says animal control offices, 
officers in Campbell County are 

118
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,640
searching for a primate perhaps 
weighing 400 lbs. 

119
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,760
That's on the loose and nearly 
100 pets are missing. 

120
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,760
That doesn't sound like a 
chimpanzee to me, sounds more 

121
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,800
like a gorilla. 
I didn't really get a good look 

122
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,440
at his face because he didn't 
hang around all that long, Donna

123
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,600
Keeley said about when she saw 
an ape like creature last week 

124
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,000
in La Follette. 
But he's big and he's got a 

125
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,720
really bad stinkful order to 
him, a fat animal control 

126
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,360
officer, George Moses said. 
I believe that the people 

127
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:38,520
believe that. 
They see it. 

128
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,960
I don't have any reason to doubt
them, that they're mistaken. 

129
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,760
Moses said he hasn't seen the 
animal, but he's certainly heard

130
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,520
of it. 
He started getting calls about 

131
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,280
it three weeks ago. 
All the alleged sightings 

132
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:52,840
centered on the College Hill 
community just outside of the 

133
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,480
Lafleet city limits. 
Coinciding with the sightings 

134
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,440
are numerous reports of missing 
cats and kittens. 

135
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:03,120
All told, over 100 are missing, 
Moses said, according to Keely, 

136
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,800
when she startled the animal. 
This kitten, he threw it at me. 

137
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,680
No one knows where it came from.
One college young man, who 

138
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,440
declined to be identified, 
claims the primate is an 

139
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,040
orangutan. 
He said he saw it Tuesday 

140
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,960
morning, leaving stool samples 
on his property. 

141
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,520
Why? 
I wish you would have got those.

142
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,000
Many College Hill residents 
believe the animal escaped a 

143
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,760
circus that performed at the 
nearby National Guard Armory a 

144
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,000
few months back. 
But the law Police Department 

145
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,520
and the Campbell County 
Sheriff's Department didn't take

146
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,520
any reports of a missing animal.
Donna Keatley said her neighbors

147
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,880
are ready to shoot the animal. 
If I had a gun, I would have 

148
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,400
shot it. 
Several people told 6 News 

149
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,560
Monday that they want the animal
caught or killed before 

150
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,640
Halloween so it can't attack a 
child or pet. 

151
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,840
Campbell County officers warn 
anyone who sees as an animal not

152
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,800
to attempt capturing it. 
It's considered dangerous. 

153
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,680
Instead, any sighting should be 
reported immediately to 

154
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,720
Lafayette Animal Control. 
Boy, a lot of good that's done. 

155
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,040
Then they have another article 
here dated October 22nd, 2023. 

156
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:11,080
It says a new theory emerged 
Wednesday as a cryptozoologist 

157
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,080
weighed in on sightings of a 
possible primate in Campbell 

158
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,000
County. 
A cryptozoologist, Someone who 

159
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,040
studies uncatalogued animals 
such as skunk apes, compared A6 

160
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,280
News accompanied A6 News crew in
Campbell County Wednesday. 

161
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,880
Mayac skunk apes have been 
spotted in southeastern United 

162
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,120
States since the 1940s. 
Sounds like a Bigfoot to me. 

163
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,440
Local cryptozoologist Chris 
Dodson contacted 6 News after 

164
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,320
seeing the stories on Campbell 
County primate sightings. 

165
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,280
The animal people reported 
saying is not a pet. 

166
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,720
Dodson took these skunk ape 
photographs Wednesday to people 

167
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,520
who've claimed to have seen the 
primate in the Lafayette area. 

168
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,080
Dodson's convinced that what 
people are seeing is a skunk 

169
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,040
ape. 
We need to capture this thing 

170
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,480
the best we can. 
Dodson said. 

171
00:08:55,680 --> 00:08:57,760
People need to stay away from 
it. 

172
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,280
Allow experts to come in who 
have some knowledge of large 

173
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,720
primates like this and trap this
animal. 

174
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,920
Good luck with that. 
Monkey owner Jerome Love 

175
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,040
answered a summons at the 
Campbell County Sheriff's 

176
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,800
Department with his makai 
monkey, Mugway. 

177
00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:14,480
Love wanted to prove it's not 
his animal that's loose. 

178
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,840
If it's a monkey that's killing 
these cats, it's not this one 

179
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,880
and I'm tired of it. 6 News is 
hearing more accounts from 

180
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,920
Campbell County residents who 
say they've seen the creature. 

181
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,720
Some date back 35 years. 
However, many people are 

182
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,320
hesitant to talk for fear of 
being labeled as crazy. 

183
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,880
And then all six cats and one 
dog have been killed in the last

184
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,920
three days and there have been a
number of sightings within the 

185
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,720
last 48 hours. 
The warning still stands, 

186
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,560
though, for people not to try to
approach the animal, but to 

187
00:09:43,560 --> 00:09:47,360
report it to local authorities. 
Cryptozoologists believe there 

188
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,040
could be hundreds of skunk apes 
across the Southeast. 

189
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,720
Oh my goodness. 
Follow up investigation. 

190
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,480
A recent cluster of possible 
Bigfoot related incidents in 

191
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,800
Tennessee's Campbell County has 
been mentioned by several TV 

192
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,000
news stations and newspapers 
across the region. 

193
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,040
The BFRO has been asked to help 
investigate. 

194
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,000
We're requesting the additional 
assistance of anyone in the area

195
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,680
who has trail cameras. 
Please send an e-mail to 

196
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:15,920
assistbfo.net if you can provide
this type of equipment and if 

197
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,240
you live in that general area. 
Wow, that seems like quite a 

198
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:21,800
quite a lot of sighting. 
That's been 20 years ago. 

199
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,560
It's just a cluster of these 
sightings. 

200
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,280
It's amazing. 
We'll take a look at one more 

201
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,160
here. 
This last sighting is from June 

202
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,600
12th, 2021, State of Tennessee. 
Lawrence County says 

203
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,840
intersection of Glen Springs 
Road and Ridge Lane goes on and 

204
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:40,280
says the nearest town is 
Lawrenceburg, TN Nearest Rd. 

205
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,320
Glen Springs Rd. 
My husband and I believe we saw 

206
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,280
a Sasquatch on the night of June
12th, 2021. 

207
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,000
We were driving home with our 
daughter at approximately 9:30 

208
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,560
PM when we turned onto our 
street. 

209
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,640
We live in the deep countryside 
of Lawrenceburg, TN. 

210
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,960
As my husband turned the wheel 
slightly to turn onto our 

211
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,160
street, there was an animal with
fingers touching something on 

212
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,200
the ground picking at it. 
When the animal saw our 

213
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,320
headlights, it intentionally 
inverted them and ducked 

214
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,600
underneath. 
At one point, it was only about 

215
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,880
5 feet from the front of our 
vehicle and fully in the 

216
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,520
headlights. 
The animal bounded across to our

217
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,080
neighbor's yard. 
It did not run on two feet like 

218
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,920
a human. 
We initially thought it was a 

219
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,920
gorilla because of its 
movements, but it looked 

220
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,480
extremely human like. 
It bounded with its front legs 

221
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,360
in the same way a gorilla does, 
except its arms were very long 

222
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,080
and it moved unbelievably fast. 
Of course, we consider that it 

223
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,240
could have been a person dressed
in a hairy costume, but it moved

224
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,440
way too fast to be a person. 
It was definitely not a bear. 

225
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,680
It was more like a gorilla or a 
person covered in hair. 

226
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,120
It was covered in dark brown or 
black hair. 

227
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:51,720
The animal cleared our neighbors
250 to 300 foot long in about 6 

228
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,840
seconds and then disappeared 
from view. 

229
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,280
Our four year old daughter did 
not see the animal as she was 

230
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,000
playing on her iPad when we 
pulled up to her house a minute 

231
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,320
later. 
I was absolutely terrified to 

232
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,240
get out of the vehicle because 
we had no idea what we had seen 

233
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,520
and it was so fast that it could
have turned around and reached 

234
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,560
her house in about 10 seconds. 
I gathered the courage to run 

235
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:16,320
into our house door, unlock it, 
and we all ran inside. 

236
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:20,200
We were terrified. 
We both saw the animal, however,

237
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,920
my husband saw that it had 
fingers and was observing 

238
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,760
something on the ground. 
I did not see that part. 

239
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,440
I only saw it start to run and 
clear our neighbor's lawn. 

240
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,760
We consider that it might have 
been a bear, but it was too ape 

241
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,280
like, too fast and too slim. 
It did not run on all fours 

242
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,680
exactly like a bear would. 
This happened at 9:30 PM. 

243
00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:42,240
It says street and the 
countryside. 

244
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,080
Now if we go and look at the 
investigators notes, it says 

245
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,920
follow up investigation report 
by BFR investigator Matthew 

246
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,040
Moneymaker. 
I spoke with the wife by phone. 

247
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,720
She is credible. 
This is a solid report and both 

248
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,320
witnesses are able to speak with
local journalists. 

249
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,360
And then it goes on and says it 
talks a little bit about money 

250
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,360
makers background. 
So definitely as far as he's 

251
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,080
concerned, this thing is, is 
absolutely real. 

252
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:12,520
We got a little time here. 
I'll do one last one. 

253
00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:16,640
This is 2008. 
It says spring May 31st. 

254
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,400
Tennessee. 
Lawrence County location

details. 
From Hwy. 43 turn onto Rabbit 

256
00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:25,320
Trail Rd. 
Continue about 30 miles to 

257
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:30,600
Blooming Grove Rd. 
Turn and continue to the Ravilo 

258
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,760
Rd. 
Stay left until you reach Mount 

259
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,000
Zion Rd. 
Turn right and continue until 

260
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,520
you cross the low water bridge 
and you arrive at the Mount Zion

261
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:43,440
Church nearest town. 
Appleton, Tennessee Nearest Rd. 

262
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:48,440
Mount Zion Rd. observed while on
a day trip to a very remote 

263
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,960
local cemetery in the Pine 
Barrens near Appleton, 

264
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,320
Tennessee. 
My family and friends observed a

265
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,440
freshly fallen tree across Sugar
Creek about 150 yards South of 

266
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,640
the Mount Zion entryway. 
Visitors have to cross a low 

267
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,880
water bridge on Sugar Creek at 
this point. 

268
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:09,520
It was a very pleasant day in 
May the 31st with blue skies and

269
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,600
a light breeze. 
After about half an hour we 

270
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,040
heard what we could, only to be 
described as the most unholy 

271
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:20,040
sound any of us have ever heard 
coming from the area past the 

272
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:27,120
fallen tree on Sugar Creek Creek
on Sugar Creek about 1000 yards 

273
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,640
away from us. 
It was no cow, donkey, horse, 

274
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,960
etcetera. 
My wife and best friend heard 

275
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,320
this sound and in fact captured 
it on our camcorder. 

276
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,400
It is nowhere as loud as it was 
in person, but I do have it 

277
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,320
recorded. 
Then it says. 

278
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,520
Didn't think much of it at the 
time, but there was an unusual 

279
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,800
odor on the breeze. 
Hard to describe but dark musty,

280
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,640
wet doggy smell. 
But this wasn't close to us. 

281
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,840
It seemed like it was coming 
downwind and now that I began to

282
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,680
piece things together, it seemed
to be coming from the vicinity 

283
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,880
of the yell or sound, but a good
distance away at least. 

284
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,080
Other witnesses says three 
adults that heard the sound and 

285
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,640
three children 15-9 and eight 
years old ask about other 

286
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,440
stories. 
No other instance that I've 

287
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,320
heard of in Lawrence County. 
But some locals have said there 

288
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,440
are strange things that happen 
at this old cemetery. 

289
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,320
But I think they were referring 
more to inspectors and spirits 

290
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,400
than Bigfoot. 
However, after looking through 

291
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,560
your site, I do see that there 
have been reports of these 

292
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,640
creatures in several counties 
surrounding us. 

293
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,280
And we were very near the county
line with Gallus County where 

294
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,880
there have been reports. 
And then it says time and 

295
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:34,400
condition, Clear skies, breezy, 
beautiful Mayday at about noon. 

296
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,880
Wow. 
Follow up investigators says I 

297
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,840
spoke with the husband on 
November 2nd, 2008 and found him

298
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,800
to be credible. 
He and his wife and daughters, 

299
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,600
as well as another female friend
of the family were on a research

300
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,720
adding to Old Mount Zion 
Cemetery in Lawrence County, 

301
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,520
Tennessee when this event 
occurred. 

302
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,400
The wife and her friends are 
actually in the process of 

303
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,760
writing a book about paranormal 
activities of the ghostly type 

304
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,600
throughout the South. 
The husband is a photographer, 

305
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,320
researcher, and published 
writer. 

306
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,080
I don't have much to add since 
he did an excellent job of 

307
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,880
recording the events of the day 
in his report. 

308
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,560
He had posted his recording on 
YouTube and I'm including a link

309
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,720
and then it's got a link here to
this YouTube link. 

310
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,920
I'll go ahead and put that at 
the Kofi site. 

311
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,720
Very cool sightings. 
Hope you enjoy the stuff. 

312
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,920
Until next time, this is UFO 
warning over now.
