A Missouri Bigfoot researcher & investigator contacted me about a sighting that was reported to him from the area around Rockaway Beach, Missouri known as 'Booger Knob.'
I received the following information:
"Hello, Lon. During my ongoing research into the many Bigfoot encounters that have occurred in the Taney County, Missouri area over the years, I posted a request for information on the timeline of a local Facebook group. I was seeking information on “Booger” place names and received a message from Darla concerning “Booger Knob” near Rockaway Beach.
Then to my surprise, she added:
“I saw something a few years ago but I couldn’t really explain what it was and my ex-husband couldn’t either. It definitely wasn’t any kind of animal either of us had ever seen but when we stopped and turned around it was gone. Just took it as something we couldn’t explain and never really thought too much about it.”
I immediately responded with a request for additional information. She soon replied:
“It was probably about 8 feet tall, kind of dark grey with a little brown. Had a mane kind of like a male lion but shorter hair around the body and legs. Was walking upright on its back legs but once we got close to our car it got on all fours and took off extremely fast. We slowed down, stopped to turn around immediately, and drove back and forth a few times, trying to see what it was, but it was completely gone or hiding. Never saw it again.”
I inquired concerning when it occurred and was told:
“Probably close to 11 years ago now (2012) and was right before dark; it looked like it was coming out of the woods towards the lake. No odd smells or sounds but we were in a car going about 25 mph around a corner.”
I asked about the time of year and got:
“It was during the summer, I’d say probably July or August because we had our windows up and the air on.”
Her final comment on the sighting was:
“I’m not saying what I saw was Bigfoot but I know I’m not crazy. My ex and I both saw something neither of us had ever seen before in our lives. I can’t explain it. I spend a lot of time in the woods and that was definitely a first.”
She now lives approximately a half-mile from where the sighting took place. I proceeded to provide her with a rundown on some of the things to listen for, especially during the evening or at night:
“Listen for sounds such as a tree being struck loudly with a wooden club, sounds like two rocks being clacked against each other, or any animal calls you do not recognize. All of these are common signs of Bigfoot activity.” D
