Old Fort Bigfoot
My friend and I checked out this report (below).. We met the lady and her kids.. We set up a bait deep in the woods outside of her property to see if we could get some footpriints.. We didn't get anything but hopefully we'll get another chance to follow up on this.. Btw- I'll post some pics of our investigation soon..
I live in Old Fort, North Carolina. It is an extremely small town with a population of about 800. About a year ago I bought a new house. It's in the woods well away from town ( not that 800 people is much of a town )!!!!!!!! Right after I moved in I started hearing strange sounds at night. There is "gibberish" that I can't really understand. It kind of sounds like talking but I can never make out any words. I have heard some screams that are so blood crudling that I've actually went into the woods with a flashlight to see if a woman was hurt. My children often play outside until 9 or 9:30 pm ( if it's not a school night!! ) and they have repeatedly seen something that they call " The Brown Man ". They say he is bigger than a man and he is brown in color and all he does is stand at the edge of my front yard in the treeline and watches them play. They are not afraid because he has never ventured into the yard and if they try to approach him he runs away. Even though I have heard the strange sounds I'd never seen anything until last September. It was about 11 pm and I had to go to the pumphouse to get my toolbox. The pumphouse is not actually in my yard it is behind the treeline at the back of my house. The kids were playing a cd really loud and they were dancing around the house ( three kids can make alot of noise !!!!). I stepped out the front door and walked around the corner of the house and there he was. BF was standing not 5 feet from my sliding glass door. He was standing in the shadows looking in the door like he was totally fascinated with what my children were doing. I was so shocked that I just stopped and stared. He saw me at the same time I saw him. He was about 15 feet from me. There was such a shocked expression on his face that I now think it's funny but then I was kinda shook up. He turned and ran into the woods. I've got no real idea how tall he was. My brother is 6 foot 4 inches tall and BF was alot taller than that. I would guess at least 7 feet. He is brown in color ( 'bout like a Hershey bar.) I have searched the woods repeatedly and I've never found a footprint but that's not surprising considering the ground cover, leaves, rocks, etc. I've never been "into" BF until that night but I now own a night vision device and I sometimes sit in the backyard after the kids are asleep and just try to see him again. I have seen him at a distance. I just hope to get a photo one day.

What is Bigfoot?
Here is a well explained article by Melanie Marten
Elusive Primate-Most people think they are a rare and elusive species of large primate. This hypothesis is backed up by the appearance and behaviors of most bigfoot sighting reports. The only thing that does not fit with this idea is the seemingly high intelligence that the creature appears to exhibit. Bigfoot trackers speak of lean-tos, broken branches marking pathways, and leafy nests that may be akin to what other great apes such as gorillas build.
Alien Being- People who do not subscribe to the normal animal explanation of bigfoot may believe that he is an alien creature either put on earth for a reason, or abandoned or forgotten by a passing spaceship. This is one of the least popular notions, as there is no evidence that bigfoot has knowledge of advanced technology or any specific interest in the cosmos.
Shape Shifter-Perhaps influenced by Native American skinwalker tales, some consider bigfoot to be a shapeshifter. Some report that a bigfoot they observed moving about turned into a rock or stump. Others think that the creature has the ability to become invisible. This is often due to the fact that he can seemingly disappear in the forest quickly and without trouble after being spotted.
Prehistoric Leftover-Other than the unusual primate opinion, the idea that bigfoot is a prehistoric leftover is popular among believers with a more scientific bent. Just as the coelecanth was rediscovered in modern times, some view bigfoot as a prehistoric human, such as Neanderthal, that was somehow stuck in time. They are viewed as communal dwellers living in small, isolated pockets.
Interdimensional Being-Those who subscribe to the theory of multiple dimensions and parallel realities think that bigfoot is a being that can slip between with relative ease. Perhaps they believe that there are other worlds where bigfoot type creatures are the norm. Why they come to this reality and journey through remote forests is not usually explained.

Finally Moved..(New House)
We are finally in our new house! Thursday was our first day.. While i was at work, kristie and her sister moved the rest of the stuff and our pets..When i got off of work on thursday, i joined kristie at the old house for some last minute cleaning but we decided to come back on sunday for the final cleaning..When we got to the new house and I imediately went in to see how our pets were doing..The poodle was fine but Mayfield and Sammy wondered what the hell just happened..Patches seemed to adjust pretty quickly as we knew she would but they are all fine now..After we got our bedroom together, Kristie made us a couple of sandwiches and we chilled out.. We didn't have cable right then but we had recorded stuff on our moxi.. We decided to look at Paranormal State which was about demons in a house that possessed a young girl..I know this wasn't the best choice since this was an unfamiliar house..((((((((shivers))))))))) Everything has went well..The cable guy came friday late evening..We got on the internet today.. So i'm getting back in the swing of things..
Holloween Night (Sorry-No pics)
Kristie and I went to a holloween party last night at a place called chasers..We entered a costume contest which kristie talked me into and she came in second place..She dressed up as a witch and i was something that came from the swamps of NC..LOL I never knew that she had the skills for doing face paint.. She really looked scary and crazy and she played the part really well too..We got there about 10:30 and we got home about 2:30.. The night was pretty fun but it felt good getting back home.. I'm kicking myself for not remembering the camera.. The truth is, we were tooooo scaryyy for pics!!! lol- I would have took tons of pics and video of us and friends but my brain was somewhere else and not on my cam.. One of our friends took our pic on a camera phone so maybe i can get her to email it to me so i can post it..Hope everyone had a safe and good holloween..
