While in the woods, a young Western Massachusetts man hears rhythmic thuds. He later hears an unknown, heavy biped run off at non-human speed. Was it Bigfoot?
I received the following account:
"I lived in rural Western Massachusetts. Anyone familiar with that means miles of woodland with spaced-out suburban areas in between. I was walking down my grandfather's logging trail getting ready for his funeral. I'm also an avid mushroom collector, always strolling and staring at the ground.
So I get to this cool little white-capped mushroom and stop to take a close-up picture of it. That's when I heard it; the best way I can describe it was as if someone with a lot of flesh on his knuckles was punching a tree. Now, I know what deer sound like when they stomp to protect their young by smashing antlers on trees. I've heard bear, Fisher cat, moose, pretty much any animal in Western Massachusetts that exists. So, naturally, I looked up, and freaked out! It was so rhythmic. THUD. THUD. THUD. It went on for minutes at the same pace.
So, being the curious person that I am, I let out a whistle that couldn't be mistaken for a bird. (NOTE: I'm looking in the direction of the thudding, and can see out 75-100 yards through my grandfather's well-trimmed trees, and see NOTHING). Right after my whistle, I hear a low quick whistle back. My first thought is, "Oh, it must be some logger scoping the land past the no-trespassing gate." Ignorant, I know.
So I yell out "HELLO?!" Pretty much as loudly as I could. Then, whatever it was, ran away faster than I'd ever heard a human being run. Using my experience with deer/dogs/moose/bears, I assessed that I couldn't possibly rationalize it being a 4 legged creature. I know what they sound like running, and this was much closer to a 2-legged creature, I'm 100% positive on that. What doesn't make sense, however, is that that 2-legged creature that ran away from me, faster than any two-legged creature I have ever heard before, also sounded like it was at a minimum, 300 lbs. The steps were loud and frantic.
A lot of people believe Bigfoot has a spiritual connection to the forests it remains in, and thus, the creatures in it as well. I do not find it a coincidence that this happened on the day of my grandfather's funeral. I ran all the way home." F
