The Henfield Humanoid Thing (did he throw a squirrel at us) 1990

Image
The witness shared this account with me July 2016. It was September 1990 and I was around 16 years old. It was the 40th birthday party of the mother of my best friend. They were caravan owners who camped often and had obtained use of a field behind a pub to put up tents, caravans, BBQ etc for the weekend. The pub has quite a large beer garden so the field would have been quite a way behind the pub, very near to the River Adur. My parents were also attending the party but I was actually staying the night with my friend in an awning attached to her parents' caravan. I will admit we did consume some alcohol (underage obviously!) earlier on in the evening but it was lemonade mostly and by the time the incident happened I was completely sober. I have an exceptional memory for silly small details and can remember the evening very well, even down to the white cut off jeans I was wearing that were from Gap in Brighton and also a flowery shirt that I got caught on some brambles in a ditc...

The Ryvoan Tarf Boffy Terror 2005

Image
This Account came in throught the Outdoors Magic camping blog and happened around August 2005: I had a really spooky experience on Sunday night. I had been out on the Cairngorms alone and decided to spend the night in Ryvoan bothy which I had never visited before. I reached the bothy after dark andit was empty. I sorted out my therm-a-rest, sleeping bag and bivvy bag and read for a while by my headtorch light before turning in for the night. I was awoken at 2am by the noise of loud conversation which seemed to be coming from outside and went out and investigated with my headtorch but there was no-one to be seen. I got back into bedand was just getting back to sleep when all off a sudden I heard a series of loud scraping noises as if somone were dragging heavy furniture around the bothy floor!! I flicked on my headtorch and the room was empty and the noise stopped. My heart was in my mouth at this stage as I felt really creeped out and I just couldnt sleep after that. To my horr...

Growls and Mystery in the Simonside Hills June 17

Image
Today's account came in through the British Bigfoot research group on facebook and was an experience that happened to one of the members Derrik Carvell he agreed i could share it here and on the map. Witness Account Taken on 12th June 2017: Hi everyone, I have been meaning to post this story for some time, I hope you find it interesting. It may or may not have some connection to the UK Bigfoot or Woodwose. Several years ago my wife and I along with our German wired haired pointer Oskar took a trip to the Simon side Hills in Northumberland. The area is very beautiful with stunning views of Crags, forest and moorland. There are ancient legends of strange creatures there called the Deurgar, not sure if the spelling is right, but type into Google along side the Simon side hills and you will come across the stories and legends, I even think that there is a video on youtube about them. http://www.spookyisles.com/2013/07/the-duergar-the-dwarves-of-simonside-hills/ A...

Structures and Finds in June 2017 and what the signs may mean

Image
I am asked over and over many times how to find a good area or how to find signs of our forest friends here in the UK well to be honest i don't think anybody can answer that question, it depends on the area's you have access to and your corner of the British Isles, but it does seem from endless research carried out over time that the signs we find come very close and even within urban areas.  The best advice i can give is to choose one or two areas close to home that have easy access in and out with a green corridor that could be used as a highway for animals and not utilised by us humans often. Railway lines that are very overgrown and lead to small woods and golf courses, tracks between country parks and the river, small copse of woods with a stream or embankment that can be used for cover, using the map pan out a little from your home and see how close some of the areas may be to you.  Some people find areas busy with dog walkers in good weather, are devoid of peopl...
