A bit about myself before I get to my story. I have been interested in the paranormal since 9 year old. shoot forward about 25 years I was in an admin position in a paranormal investigation group. (I was the interviewer) The paranormal has always been my niche, I listened to several stories about ” Bigfoot” but it was neither here or there for me. It’s not that I disbelieved it just never really interested me like ghosts did.
However, this changed one night while hanging out outside at my girlfriend’s house on Pisgah Mountain in NC.
I was hanging out in her basement around 11-1130 pm yapping on the phone when I decided to go outside to smoke. Her house is way up on the mountain pretty much completely surrounded by forest and a short walk up the mountain is the boundary to the Pisgah National Forest. As I was smoking and talking a LOUD sound of breaking and snapping timber came out of the forest down the mountain from the small backyard. Simultaneously a high-pitched whooping sound was occurring. I was like ” whoop whoop whoop whoop” and the wood that was being broken was not small fallen limbs it sounded like something breaking off huge limbs right off the tree. Naturally, I said quietly “What the $%^& is that???!!” The sound lasted for about 20 seconds then silence. I listened for footsteps of something leaving the area but just silence. I stayed outside for quite a while to hear anything at all. This happened a couple months ago. SO! I have a 9-year-old daughter who also stays at my gf’s when I am there. I did not tell her about the sound, I did not want her to be afraid to stay there. About a week ago she slept in an upstairs bedroom with the window open. The next morning she told me that she had woken up and heard a whooping noise and something was scratching on a tree very loudly. I asked her if it was a scratching or a breaking sound, after she thought about it she said it sounded like wood being broken. This immediately intrigued me and now I sit out very late to hear that sound again. I’m not sure what we heard but if I have ever heard anything like a bigfoot that was it. I’ve heard bears and a panther in the past but this was completely different. After talking to a few folks I know the area apparently its not uncommon to hear these sounds. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my experience. I thoroughly enjoy your channel and look forward to joining a live in the future!
