The witness was spending a quiet day in the Allegheny National Forest near the reservoir. He then noticed something moving, but it vanished. It then reappeared, and it was huge. What was this creature?
I received the following account:
"I like to spend some 'alone time' occasionally. Last Fall, in October 2023, I spent a day in the Allegheny National Forest in northwest Pennsylvania. I like the forest because of the tall trees and nature, I'm able to relax and think to myself without interference. I got there early in the morning just as dawn was breaking.
I got out of my truck and hiked to the Rimrock Overlook. There was a foggy blanket draping the Allegheny Reservoir. I had my binoculars and my camera and wanted to go deeper into the woods. The daylight was just peeking through the forest and the wildlife was beginning to wake and become active.
As I was watching the birds with my binoculars, out of nowhere this weird sound came. It was like a mix of a deep growl and a long moaning that just echoed through the forest. It was so surprising and different from the usual forest noises that it actually gave me a creepy feeling. My heart was racing while I stood there not moving, still holding the binoculars to my eyes looking around anxiously trying to figure out where that sound was coming from.
Then I saw it. It looked like someone or something moving past the dense underbrush. It was huge and somewhat hidden in the fog. As soon as I noticed it though it vanished. I was freaked out. I thought that maybe it was a bear or an elk. But that unfamiliar noise had me thinking that it was something out of the ordinary. After a few minutes of whatever it was vanishing, the forest went back to normal. I was left standing there equal parts scared and curious.
Then it showed itself again, but further to my right, I guess it was about 50 yards away from me. Whatever it was it appeared as tall as a young tree, around 8 feet tall with shoulders over 4 feet wide. It moved in a way that was smooth but also very strange. I didn't want to blink and miss it. The creature quickly moved around bushes and jumped over logs surprisingly quiet for its size. The fur looked rough and its colors shifted between light brown and red when the sunlight hit it. I could see it had a wide back, big muscular arms, and a flat face. The odor that I was then smelling is what really scared me. It was faint, like a rotten smell that seemed to stick in my nose. It made me nervous and my heart started pounding. I wanted to run back to my truck but I was just too curious.
Then suddenly the thing turned its head towards me and I just froze. I briefly saw its huge forehead and distinct brow. But then it was gone! It simply vanished into the thick forest just as quietly as it had first appeared.
I saw something weird that I can't explain. Was it a Sasquatch? I finally decided to walk back to my truck. My mind was going crazy. Every little sound sent an alert and I didn't feel safe anymore.
That night at home I experienced a series of bizarre dreams. It was as if the creature was communicating with me. I know that sounds crazy, but that is what happened. In fact, It took several weeks until the dreams stopped. I had this overwhelming feeling that I was supposed to return to find answers. I have resisted returning to the area because of my fear of encountering the creature or, maybe, something more terrifying." S
NOTE: I talked to the witness, who lives in Jamestown, New York. I have no doubt that he encountered a Bigfoot from his description and the lingering dreams that he experienced for several weeks afterward. Lon
