Deborah Hatswell - BBR Investigations

Possible vocalizations in Parsonage Wood, near Castle Combe, Wiltshire. ' People have reported hearing the sounds of a small 'crowd' , it has been heard in the forest after dark - those who continue to listen have reported a piercing scream that finally lays quiet the voices .' In Harwood Forest, Northumberland, researchers including British Bigfoot Research founders Adam and Paul Bird, have reported hearing sounds like people talking. This was also heard by the B.F.R.O while investigating Harwood. This particular phenomena in Parsonage Wood could be something similar?? This, coupled with the piercing scream, adds to the validity of this being Wildman related.

I CAME ACROSS THIS ACCOUNT IN Ihttps://sjhstrangetales.wordpress.com/2013/04/08/the-ghosts-and-hairy-humanoid-of-raf-alconbury/.  i first came across the legends surrounding RAF Alconbury, Huntingdon, when browsing through John Hanson and Dawn Holloway’s ‘Haunted Skies’ series of books. The authors relate some curious incidences told to them by men who had been posted at there in the 1970s. This area seems to be rife with ghosts, unexplained happenings … and even a werewolf! Wesley Uptergrove said that he once heard children’s voices whilst on night-watch duty. The voices were all around him, and eventually began to slowly fade away. He went to a local library and found out that seveal children had been killed in a train accident in the area in January 1876. Dennis Prisbrey, stationed here between 1973/5, told of colleagues seeing a “creature” near the north side of the airfield. One sighting of it scared a colleague so much that he jumped into the cockpit of an aircraft a...

On Saturday 12th May 2012, a small group of Twilight Shadows Paranormal decided that we would go on a three-location paranormal road trip. Our first location were some allegedly haunted woods in Wiltshire.The woodlands lie on an ancient site and as soon as you enter them, an ethereal, atmospheric sensation, envelops you. It does not feel entirely comfortable and you definitely feel that you are being watched. I have been to these woodlands many times and I have had many experiences, witnessed by other people.  PAST EXPERIENCES I have seen many shadow people here and one Halloween night, Loretta saw a group of these entities, who passed by her in single file, each turning their head to look towards her as they passed, not seeming to recognise her, looking straight ahead and then walking on.  Several people, including team member Vikki have heard growls right beside them in these woodlands which...

On 18 November 1990 a young couple had been visiting relatives, and were driving home at about 8:30 that night. They decided to stop off and have a look at Stonehenge. The couple noticed an eerie orange light coming from a clump of trees nearby. The light emerged and began to track their car as they approached the stones. As they neared the stones the car headlights illuminated a band of fog and when they got out of the car, all was still. They then noticed a dark figure standing next to one of the stones, about 7ft tall, almost as broad and completely black and featureless.  This figure then began to plod purposefully towards them stomping it's feet heavily. Understandably, the couple ran back to their car. The figure kept on coming though and reached the car just as the couple drove off.

We found this sighting from 2002, which occured in Frank's Wood, in Cranham, Essex, and the team thought it sounded more like a Woodwose sighting and not a ghost as published...... A black shadowy figure, standing two and a half metres tall with no discernible features, gave chase to a group of friends as they left the wood. No more information is forth-coming and with no way to find the witnesses, it is hard to get the small details but it was tall, dark and no features were seen.....this matches many of our wildman sightings. Makes me wonder how many more sightings are missed as people report them as ghost activity or not report them at all.  Strange howls and cries, dark figures in the trees, running footsteps, stones and branches thrown. The feeling of being watched or followed and sometimes even shadowed.

'A fisherman was walking home happily to Cromarty on the Inverness road, after visiting a friend in the upper parish. "The night was still and calm, and a thick mantle of dull yellowish clouds, which descended on every side from the centre to the horizon, so obscured the light of the moon, though at full, that beyond the hedges which bounded the road all objects seemed blended together without colour or outline." Out of nowhere he heard a terrible noise, like a huge pack of maddened, snarling hounds somewhere very near him, just beyond that hedge; he put his hands in his pockets but there was nothing but the last of the crumbs from the food he'd had on the boat. He held the crumbs out anyway, thinking they might appease the dogs. But there were no dogs; there was only a man, walking beside him beyond the hedge, keeping up with him, and the baying noise had stopped. Good, he thought; the dogs must belong to him, so I'm fine. But when he reached the gap in the hed...

This is the second sighting that the team have found that has occured in Skipwith Common, in Yorkshire. The witness reported seeing a dark brown animal that he called a 'bear'. Despite searching, no trace of the 'bear' could be found later.  This sighting is the second sighting of something hairy in Skipwith Common, the first being a legend of an devil that took on the appearence of a 'dark ape with glowing eyes'. I have trawled every place i can find, all to know avail. If anybody has any more information on these encounters i would love to hear from you.   Skipwith Common is a nature reserve set in beautiful yorkshire, many sources of food and shelter, for a large "animal" to live.

Witness report: Last Monday 6th july 2015 I was walking round ashridge woods in Hertfordshire like I always do when some odd things happened which I have ruled out all possibilities off what you would normally find in the woods...I had something small thrown at me like a fir cone and then I heard a low growling and just felt like something was watching me....ive felt being watched before and have seen shadows which with the way my eyes are im not worried about but the last 2 kinda scared me.   There was a tree in the pathway which seemed too off been placed (no tyre tracks though) as there was no where it had come from i looked the whole area but didnt think it could be this reason then today it has completely gone again no tyre tracks or dragging marks seen.

Several witnesses came forward over the first few months of 2009 claiming to have spotted a strange creature in bushes and trees in the area. Descriptions varied slightly between sightings, with one witness describing it as slightly larger than a dog, with a cat's face, walking on its hind legs. Another witness said it hopped away.... Here is what witness Sam Bradbury said..... "I assumed it was a bird or maybe a dog being walked that was rustling the bushes. I stopped as I got nearer, when I realised it was neither. “It was a little bigger than a dog and had the face of a cat with eyes that were glazed over and luminescent like a lion’s at night. It left when it saw me but appeared to only walk on two hind legs much like a kangaroo would and had behind it a bushy tail like a fox.” Walking straight home after his “encounter,” Sam immediately drew a picture of the creature so he could remember every detail, in the hope that somebody else may have seen something sim...

The sighting was reported by four girls, between the ages of 14 and 9, staying at a caravan park next to the Tyrwhitt Arms pub at Short Ferry, a small hamlet near to Fiskerton, Lincolnshire, who described a four-foot-tall jet-black, bear-like creature feeding on a pheasant. The girls, who fled immediately to seek help in the pub, also reported finding large paw prints at the location when they returned later. Dave Brumhead, the Landlord of the Tyrwhitt Arms, reported that a motorist had made another sighting that evening, near where the girls had been. He said: “There was no way this was a school girls prank, they were really shocked,” he said. “We had another sighting that evening near to where the girls had been. A motorist stopped his car in the middle of the road after he thought he had seen something. It’s all very strange”  There were several further reports of a bear-like animal in the area in 1997.

Location: Grasmere - Seat Sandal Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: 1 August 1949 Details: Two women out walking on the hill could hear a couple of men talking and occasionally whistling as if calling a dog. However, even though it was a clear afternoon and the women could see for miles around, they could not see the source of the sounds. These sounds are similar to those heard by a couple of our investigators up in Harwood Forest, Northumberland.

This encounter recently came from one of our members Daniel Cook, who gave the BBR permission to use it in our files. Thanks Daniel for this. Here is the encounter in his own words. "I was walking though Friston forest with my friend (who wishs to remain unnamed) and his dog, looking into a rumoured big cat sighting, and the dog sniffed something and runs into the bushes so we start whistling for it to come back and we hear this scream come back at us that sounded like the scream Cliff (Barackman) does on Finding Bigfoot. So I do more whistles and the dog comes back with her tail between her legs like something scared the hell out of her. It was mid afternoon." As you can see, this is another report of vocalizations to add to our database. Thanks for sharing with us Daniel. 

  MORE people have come forward claiming to have seen a Bigfoot-like creature in the Wanstead and Woodford area. Last week we revealed how fitness instructor Michael Kent saw a peculiar-looking Bigfoot-like animal emerge from trees near the Hollow Ponds area of Epping Forest, on the border between Wanstead and Leytonstone. And now pensioner Irene Dainty, of Love Lane in Woodford Bridge, claims she was left shaking after she came face to face with a hairy creature which surprised her in her street. Mrs Dainty told the Guardian she was “absolutely convinced” that what she saw was not human, or a normal species of animal life. She said: “I had just come out of my flat and just as I had turned the corner I saw this hairy thing come out of nowhere. I really don’t want to see it again. “It was about 4ft tall and with really big feet and looked straight at me with animal eyes. Then it leaped straight over the wall with no trouble at all and went off into the garden of the ...
