Clava Cairns hairy man Aug 2015

Image
This is a report by our researcher Mary Cameron who has spoken to the witness: The witness wishes to remain anonymous but swears that she saw a tall hair covered humanish (her word) at the Cairns about 2 weeks ago.  The creature was about 7-8 feet tall by her estimation.  It was just at dusk, and the sighting only lasted for a few seconds while the 'thing' crossed the site and made off into the trees in the direction of the battlefield. The Cairns lie in the valley of the River Nairn, and there are standing stones/cairns along its length - right down to the sea (and along to Cloddymoss!)  The river is known for its salmon and sea trout and there are a lot of Roe deer in the area.  It is also close to moorland where there are grouse and Red deer + rabbits, hare etc.  I know the battlefield is haunted,  bagpipes can be heard and the Highland forces seen on the eve of the anniversary of the battle in April. Clava Cairns -is an area of natural beauty and is ...

Castle Rig night investigation 2015

Image
Report by researcher Caron Charlton:  Castle Ring is a big circle in the middle of some woods. There was quite a few investigators and we all had our designated areas - the ring is quite big. The middle area of the ring is grasses and bracken - on the outside of the ring is a moat - filled with grass etc . Around the outside of the moat is wooded with big trees. As it became dark, I clearly noticed no animal noises at all - with one exception - all of a sudden after a long time of silence an owl!! This owl!!! was clearly coming from a certain area. At the time I just registered this noise and did not think much about it. After a while we moved from our designated area - my friend definitely heard a couple of low growls, she felt they came from a dense bit of trees near us. Another fellow investigator joined us and he stated he had heard low growls as well. We went closer to the area we thought the growls came from - this was dense undergrowth and trees and my friend hea...

The Leafman of Sussex 1984

Image
I’ve always been intrigued by creepy stories and their power to embed themselves into a local community. Growing up in the ‘80s I was obsessed with tales concerning local bogeymen and one such yarn which often spooked me was known as the Leaf Man. Such a monster was said to haunt an undisclosed section of woodland not far from Hailsham although reports of the creature seem mostly vague. However, one eye-witness told me a few years ago the following story: “I had been with three friends at the time; it must’ve been around 1984 during a time when it was normal for us kids to be out playing in the woods as long as we were home by a certain time. I think at the time we were playing not far from what people know as Folkington Wood, it was around dusk and we were all lighting a campfire when suddenly, from the shadows and like in all good horror films, we heard the snap of a twig. We all sensed that we were being watched but as teenagers we were brazen and goaded what was lurking the bush...

Porters Brea Wildman circa 1970

Image
Reported by witness Jan 2015, incident occurred around 1970: "About 45 years ago I was with my then girlfriend parked on a forestry road at the junction of Langdykes Brae,Porters Brae and the road to Cults. this junction is about 1-5 miles from Kenoway in Fife. I was parked about 300 yards up the Torloisk forestry road and the trees to the left of me had been cut down for about 50 yards into the forest and stacked up at the side of the forestry road. There was a full moon and  you could see right across the clearing to the standing trees, my then girlfriend said she saw something moving in the clearance to which I said it would be a fox or deer. After a while I fell asleep until my girlfriend shook me awake and said there was something moving behind the stacked trees next to the car, I wound the window down and banged on the door but the creature never moved. I then jumped into the drivers seat and reversed the car so the head lights shone in the direction of this creature, to my ...

The Black Mountain Werewolf?

Image
Witness report:I saw something when I was younger here is my story. I was about 19 and me my GF and my 3 best pals went camping in the Black Mountains in Wales, we went to the local pub had a few and drove back to our campsite in the middle of nowhere in a glade surrounded by woods. My self and my GF had one tent my pals had another and upon settling down for the night I found out I had no smokes so I made up a tale that someone was outside our tents, one of my brave pals got out of his tent and had a look around and while he was up I asked for a pack of smokes, my pals realised my ruse and entered my tent and duffed me up. About an hour or so later my GF woke me up saying "someone IS outside" so thinking It was my pals getting me back I shouted out "I know it is one of you" but each one answered from their tent "nope not us" so I grabbed my torch and left the tent. It was pitch black and I heard something make a run for it as I left the tent and scanned t...

The Gildencroft bogey historical

Image
About twenty minutes’ walk from the train station, Gildencroft is an area just off St Augustine’s Street. Today it is home to a park and recreation ground, but for centuries it was a mixture of houses, farmland and wilderness. And lurking in the wilderness was the Gildencroft Bogey. Here is the testimony of a witness: “I was walking to The Lathes when I saw it. It jumped out of the darkness and chased me down the road. I’ve never seen anything like it in all my puff. Oh, ’orrible it was! All big and hairy! Eyes glowing in the dark, big as tea-saucers. Big sharp teeth… and its’ breath. Oh, verily it was most noxious. Forsooth, I swooned with a fit of the vapours. And when I came to, it had gone,” the witness said.  Sightings of the Gildencroft Bogey continued until the late nineteenth-century  Read more:  http://yourlisten.com/norfolkstorytelling/the-horrible-hairy-creatures-of-norwich#ixzz3jAIZwfhD

A3 road Figure sighting aug 2015

Image
Spoke to someone today who had a possible bigfoot sighting last week. Witness statement given to Bigfoot of Boxhill team and they allowed me to share. The witness gave these details.  Whilst driving towards Guildford along the A3 I noticed a dark figure in a field.  At first i thought it was a scarecrow of somekind. i estimate it to be bigger than a grown man, standing by the haybails. On returning there was no scarecrow in the field. this is the 3rd sighting of a tall hairy figure close to the hay bales, one even used the hayballs to hide,, i wonder if its a quick source of cover or even a handy place to find mice. who knows but the area is certainly ideal.

Haslingden hairy man

Image
This was a report sent into 'British Bigfoot Research' recently. We are holding back the witnesses real name for now. It took place in Haslingden, Lancashire, though we are unsure of the time it happened. Here is the account in the witnesses own words........ When she describes the creature as an in the kitchen/dining area, and nearly as tall as the door frame, we are naturally assuming that she was saying the creature was stood in a back door that led outside into the back garden.   "This a thing I don't tell people. I sound mad but...when I was about 17 I lived in Haslingden in Lancashire. Mum and dad were out and I was on the phone. I was sitting on the phone cabinet and idly looking around the room. I looked towards the kitchen / dining room and there was a person. He (it felt like a he?) looked like Chewbacca I suppose. His head reached only an inch or two from the top of the door frame and he'd sort of poked his head and upper body round the doorway li...

I saw something about 80 feet away go across a trail it used it's long arms to knock aside the trees all I can say is it was just like a chimp in colour but more like a gorilla in build. but the general shape of man, it was around 5'7" 5'8" in height arms at least a third longer than mine it moved like we walk no...

Hill of Keir footprints

Image
According to David Ewen in the Aberdeenshire Evening Express fresh evidence has been found for an ape-like creature roaming Aberdeenshire. Student Peter Dignan found the large footprints on the Hill of Keir next to a drinking trough. Peter explains: "I was walking the dog and came across them at a drinking trough. The ground was muddy underneath it. At first I just laughed about the footprints but then I went home to get my camera The day I actually see something is the day I'll find a new route to walk my dog."
