Anomalous Observational Phenomena per cognitionem veritatis: Time To Study British Wild Men Reports? : For near to five decades now I have investigated and researched.  I spent 1977-2007 as a wildlife consultant on exotic fauna to UK police f...

Pluckley is known for its screams and wails. Witness Statement :It was summer 2012 and i had been interested in Bigfoot for some time now, so i thought id look for an area close to me, i set off to the woods at Dering most people call it Pluckley but its between Pluckley and Smarden.   The weather was foggy so a little spooky and had only recently made the connection between the Screaming Woods of pluckley and possible Bigfoot activity.  I remember that some of our Bigfoot reports get lost to paranormal groups as ghost activity or demons, and there had never been a Bigfoot investigation there with that focus in mind, so i figured i had nothing to lose and set off. I went there to try wood knocking and call sounding (i.e. me screaming and whooping out loud a lot lol). I knocked a number of times and to my surprise i was answered, From the wood knocking I definitely got replies, at least 2-3.  From the call sounding I may have got a reply, but it could also have been...

Witness Statement:  Before I moved to Doncaster, I was living in a area in Manchester called Blackley. Me and my family would often go for walks embracing the beautiful woodlands and surroundings. Back in 2003 we decided to go for a evening walk in the nearby area of Boggart Hole Clough, an area with an amazing size to it, wildlife,a pond and even streams, but that was only a part of it. We arrived at the location at around 9PM, myself, my mum and an ex partner of hers. As we started to walk along the path, we could hear birds and the common sounds you would expect. But as we made another step, we had stopped dead in our tracks. The sudden feeling of being watched but due to the darkness in Boggart Hole Clough we couldn't see much, apart from the trees that were pretty much in front of us. Next thing we knew a small stone landed centimeters in front of us. As my mum's ex began to proceed to walk towards the pathway, another stone was thrown, and then a third. During this time w...

Witness report:2014 i was Camped on top of kinder scout one night in the peak district near to a ww2 bomber crash site and awoke to here someone or something walking right next to my tent at about 4am, but i was too cold and tired to have a look what it was... Also same bomber crash site but another night and experienced by a friend not myself, he awoke in the middle of the night needing a pee lol and when he got out of his tent it was very smoky and all the heather around appeared to be and smelled burnt but he thought nothing of it, in the morning he got out of his tent and the was no smoke or smell or any evidence of any of the heather being burnt... Up on Edale Moor, close to the south-eastern flanks of Kinder Scout can be found the remains of a World War 2 bomber. It's quite tricky to find if you don't have a grid reference and GPS device. And that's before you even consider negotiating the deep, damp groughs in the area. But it's this particular part of the mo...

Hello Everyone. Adam Bird asked me to relate this. First let me say that I have been a researcher of the American Sasquatch since 1963 and I am an Admin for several BF FB groups. However that should have no bering on my credibility in writing this account. Back in the late 1960's I was stationed for a short time in the UK at an RAF/USAF base. I became friends with one of the RAF personnel who had parents living in the north of England in Yorkshire. One night in a pub ove r more than a few pints I related to him my first Class A sighting in Michigan in '63. He immediately told me his parents had seen very large footprints (18"+) on their property and invited me to come home with him during a long weekend. His parents lived on a very large, heavily wooded piece of property west of the city of York. The driveway to the house was more than 500 meters long and the house itself could not be seen from the road. Very thick woods on both sides of the drive made the area dark ...

Whilst researching Wildman and woodwoose sightings, i come across many Large Black Dogs accounts their descriptions similar in each account with red or sometimes yellow eyes, They seem to be witnessed by ordinary people on what seems a regular basis. Some are described as on all fours or up on two legs, hairy and appear and disappear quickly. They come from all areas of the country and go by many names, across the uk from Wolfman to Shuck, padfoot and bogey and many more regional names. I have listed a few of the accounts here for your enjoyment and who knows, you may be the next witness..... Cannock Chase.

I was walking with my dad and dog over Norbury Park, in Great Bookham, Surrey (the track that ajoins dorking road and Crabtree Lane). We were watching foxes playing in the field, when I noticed a large dog shaped figure in the middle of the track. It was large, at least 3-4 foot high, very shaggy looking and had brown fur. it was quite blurry.I tried to scare it off, as I was scared it would be nervous and attack it. But my dad could not see it and our own dog was not fussed. I thought it was a trick of the light, so tried my dad's glases but it remained. We walked towards it and it remained till I was about 2 meters from it. It never became clear it remained a blurry aparation. Were it was for about 5 meters was icy cold. even my dad who really doesnt believe in these things said so. It was like walking into a freezer. We walked on, and looking back I could see it again about 3 meters away. it remained the entire time. I stayed and patted a horse with my dad up the track before tu...

Caroline Toms, 34, managed to take a grainy image of the huge ape-like beast that she claims ran across her path as she was with border collie Ash. Ash was the first to spot something was amiss last Tuesday as they walked through Angmering Park Estate in Arundel, West Sussex. Caroline, from nearby Littlehampton, said: "It all happened so fast. Ash started acting a little bit bemused and barking. "Then she quick as a flash shot off into the undergrowth - then I saw this big black thing flash out in front of me. "I only had my camera out because I was taking pictures of Ash playing. "She came running back quick as a flash though. "I don't know what it was, but when I had a closer look at the pictures, it certainly does look like Bigfoot to me." The building society worker said the incident was over in seconds, and she has no idea what it is that she photographed - but won't rule out the mythical North American ape-like creature. She ...

"Last year around June time, me and two other friends were supposed to go to a 24-hour basketball event for charity. Us being lads we decided to skive and go and sit down the lane in my car, and do what typical teenage lads do. "Anyway, so me and two others were parked up in a little pull-in, down a lane in Gentleshaw not too far from Burntwood, Cannock. We were parked in this pull-in facing the road, with trees either side of us, and a gated-field behind. It was around two o’clock in the morning and we had the interior light on in the car, when my friend in the front passenger seat said he could see something moving outside, on the right side of the car. "We turned off the interior light to get a better look and  could definitely see something moving in the trees in the distance . Our first thoughts were a person or an animal, all we could see was something large moving around. This thing must have been about 10-15m away. (I didn’t exactly have time to measure!) I turne...

  In 1975 a young couple Barry and Elaine are returning from a Christmas party in the early morning with their two children asleep in the back seat and driving towards their home in Slitting Mill (Staffs). The car stalled and Barry, then in his twenties jumped out to check the engine, while he was returning to his wife she saw ‘something’ that the then young couple later described as ‘trolls’. At that point, however, their plans were thrown into complete and utter disarray. According to Barry, Elaine let out a loud scream, terrified by the sight of a small figure that ran across the road in front of them at a high rate of speed. She explains: “I just about saw it at the last second, and then another one followed it, and then a third one. The best way I can describe them to you is like a hairy troll or something like that. We had some moonlight and they were like little men, but with hunchbacks and big, hooked noses and not a stitch on them at all. Not a stitch, at all; just ha...

It was my friends 16th, and we were all in Cator Park (a park in South East London, near Surrey). Anyways I go over to some bushes that lead off to houses to take a piss (I had been drinking a lot lol). Anyways Im standing there and I hear a russle, and then a garden light turned on in one of the houses infront of me. Naturally I look up in the direction of the light and I see something moving towards me, it was HUGE, a considerable amount taller than me (And Im about 6 foot 3/4). It was considerably hairy, I could see its outline in the light. It also had a very hard heavy breathing, and it had a nasty smell. Im of course bricking it so I run back over to my friends and franticly ask them if we can leave, Im on the verge of tears because Im so scared, one of my mates sits me down and kept asking me "Matthew are you alright whats wrong??" because I rarely get so scared I cry. Then my other friend was looking over at the bushes and she suddenly said really loudly "Oh my g...

Peter Densham, a local forester and climbing enthusiast, decided one day in 1945 to climb Ben Macdui and arrived at the summit cairn around noon. It was a clear day and the panorama from Britain’s second highest mountain that day was breathtaking. However, the mist soon descended and he decided to finish off his lunch and make his way back. Knowing the hill well, he was in no way disturbed by the mist and poor visibility.  Setting off he soon heard the familiar ‘crunch, crunch’ on the plateau behind him. Intrigued rather than afraid he went to investigate, thinking of the Grey Man and the paranoia of others. As he got closer he too was suddenly accosted by a sense of foreboding and his desire to flee the mountain became intense. Without even thinking, instinct took over and he was soon running hell for leather to the valley below, barely missing the steep cliffs of Lurchers’ Crag. Peter Densham was left shaken, and utterly convinced that something unnatural stalked the mountains. ...

Wendy Wood, one of the pioneers of the Scottish National Party and about as rounded and rational person you could ever meet, was gripped by a blind panic when walking through the Lairg Ghru Pass. After hearing a strange noise, and thinking it might have been a fallen climber she went to see if she if she could help. Suddenly, she was overwhelmed by the feeling that she was being followed by someone, or something, with an enormous stride. Spooked, she took off down the hill, not stopping until she reached the Whitewell Farm, some five miles off. Wendy Wood knew nothing of the legend. Others did know of it, and dismissed it out of hand.

Locals tell stories of: Running man a hairy creature that runs alongside cars.An extremely sasquatch-like creature, seperate from the greyman, which has been a part  of Scottish folklore and traditions for centuries. One sighting describes a creature whose face was "human... but not human". It  is known for it's preference for running, as opposed to walking, and has a tendency to run alongside cars to look inside the  windows. With a height of 1309 metres (4296 feet), Ben MacDhui is the highest peak in the Cairngorms and the second highest peak in Scotland. Many mountaineers are certain that this region of the Cairngorms harbour a malign humanoid entity known locally as 'Fear Liath Mor' (meaning big grey man) that is grey in colour, big, and fearsome in appearance. The legends tell of these beings stalking anyone who trespassed into their territory. Actual sightings of the Big Grey Man have been rare, but "eye-witness" descriptions of his appearance d...

Thanks to the Crypto Crew For This Article C annock Chase. The Creepiest Place On Earth? An Interview With Author, Lee Brickley By TCC Team Member  Dorraine Fisher               When we follow enough stories of the paranormal and all manner of strangeness in the world, we sometimes find certain places where unusual events and sightings of strange things seem to be more concentrated.  Cannock Chase in England is just such a place; a beautiful scenic landscape, immersed in folklore and history. And it’s a place where reports of nearly every manner of being known to the paranormal world have been collected.  But is it a paranormal hub or just good fuel for active imaginations?  Much of it is designated by authorities there as a “Site of Special Scientific Interest,” which leads us to wonder even more what’s beyond the shadows of its boundaries.   Paranormal author, ...
