Couple Reports Extremely Tall BIGFOOT Encountered on Appalachian Trail - August 14, 2023 - Dauphin County, PA

A couple hiking on the Appalachian Trial near Halifax, Pennsylvania reported encountering a tall Bigfoot on Monday, August 14, 2023. We are following up on the report.

I received the following report today (Tuesday, August 15, 2023):

"My girlfriend and I woke up yesterday (Monday, August 14, 2023) around 9 AM at Peters Mountain Shelter on the Appalachian Trail. We had begun to continue our backpacking trek north. We had an encounter with a Bigfoot for sure. It was easily 10' tall, with no smell that I recalled. I yelled "Hey" in order to scare it away. We were scared and didn't know what else to do.

The creature turned around looked at us and made a soft grunt noise and ran away making huge running strides with very little noise. We quickly hiked north on the trail. I grabbed my phone and "dropped a pin" on the location (see included images).

I always thought these were folklore. Definitely not! I'm still in shock. 

I'm happy to answer any questions you have, however, I want to remain anonymous - regards" TW





NOTE: The Peters Mountain shelter is located in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. I am staying in contact with these hikers and have asked them to offer any further details that they wish to disclose.

According to sources, there was a Bigfoot sighting reported on Friday, May 18, 2018, at the nearby Yellow Springs, PA which is also along the Appalachian Trail. The Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research team will follow up with this recent sighting. Lon

Featured in this edition:

The Appalachian Trail meanders amid mountains and valleys for 2,190 miles through 14 states from Georgia to Maine. Hundreds of thousands of people step foot on it each year. The biggest danger is not being prepared for the challenging hike. But there are also bears, coyotes, snakes, and ticks that frequent it. Then there are those 'things' that are not usually talked about. Sit back and listen to a few of the strange and terrifying tales that have become Appalachian Trail lore.

In this episode, I will describe the reports and incidents in detail and answer all questions from the chat room.
