You're listening to Bigfoot Society and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first-hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways, the stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. So settle in because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us. Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers as he continues his fight against cancer. For more updates about his medical journey, please go to the Caring Bridge link in the show notes.

Thank you. All right, Bigfoot Society. Welcome back to another episode. I've got the privilege of talking to Elliot Kuharski. He is a communications director from Vintage Church in central Texas. And I have tried to get Elliot on the show multiple times. And for some reason, it kept getting pushed back and a lot of it had to do with my medical, recent medical appointments that have had to be scheduled. And of course, it's very evident why it's happening right now, I think.

So, Elliot, welcome to the show. We were talking a little bit before we started up. And I was like, oh, man, this has to be recorded because this is going to be. really an interesting conversation. So before we get talking about stuff, Elliot, is there anything else that the listeners would want to know about you for context besides you're the communications director for the vintage church in Texas? Yeah.

I mean, so, hi, everyone. This is, this is Elliot. I, you know, I've been in ministry since I graduated high school. So, you know, I think ministry in general, ministry kind of mindset is that especially if it's the dark side of the supernatural, we kind of just put it off to this corner over here and actually not touch it. But for the 5% of people that might need help, the 95% of people are having experiences with things that are tangible, with things that are haunting them. And there's no, there's no background in the church to kind of help

combat that. And so that's a lot of my testimony. I actually came to Christ from supernatural encounters that I was happening from from ghosts to shadow people, aliens. I know that's getting into the woo. And so I won't hover too long on that unless you'd like to go back to it. So never Bigfoot. But obviously that changed because we're having a conversation about it. But yeah, it was me giving my life to the Lord. I was just being oppressed by so many different things.

and it really was. It was only Jesus that those things had stopped. And I felt not long after that, my parents didn't really go to church. So I'm not from a church going background at all. This is the other kind of interesting thing. My grandparents would go on like Easter and Christmas. And every other year I would go with them. But once I gave my life to Jesus, my parents had asked me like,

oh, what do you want to do when you grew up? I took a long pause and I was like, I think I want to go into ministry and their eyes popped out of their head. They're like, what? Because they, my dad had a background in ministry that I had known nothing about until like well into me being in ministry. And so he had gotten burned by it. And he had actually had a lot of similar interactions with the supernatural, which, you know, we get to generational type stuff. And if this is all like spiritual kind of Christian, you might. might have to go back a few episodes and talk or listen to to Doc Brown's episode.

I know he did a really good kind of laying the foundation for a lot of the conversation that we're going to have. But so I got into ministry and I really felt like what the Lord was calling me to do was to have these types of conversations and be honest about like the dark side of the supernatural because once we expose the dark, then the light just shines that much brighter. So that's amazing. It is is wild how in I don't mean we can we can hypothesize why but it seems like right now there are a lot of individuals that have they either have podcasts or YouTube channels and they are being called in to to start sharing more vocally about God and Jesus Christ. And it's just, it's very weird.

If you get your ears open, you'll start to hear it on a few shows and like, in particular like Tony Merkel's show. Yes. He's really going through some stuff right now. And we had had, we had started to have a conversation and I'd never try to lead a conversation, but I think it was really interesting. what you're starting to share about how you have to travel seven hours to get to Oklahoma. And you've kind of been watching the show during that time and what you had started to notice because it'll lead to an interesting conversation.

Yeah. I mean, so my fiance, she lives seven hours away. So I'm living in central Texas. She lives seven hours away. There's a whole blind date story of how we met. But so I've just been, I've been listening to your show for the past year or so. After I had had my own experiences, my dad was like, hey, you really got to listen to this guy, Jeremiah. He's great.

Oh, really? Okay. Your dad was like, get it. Thanks, dad. If there's like, if there's a crazy scale, I'm like probably over here. He's like all the way over here, but I was before. So, but yeah, I mean, over the past year especially, just binging a lot of your show and listening to all these stories and seeing the similarities and the things that line up.

But the thing that I've noticed a lot, and I think it really is a sign of the times as these kind of things are getting more apparent. I mean, again, getting into not really the show's topic, but the UFO stuff, the alien stuff. It just seems like there's more stuff, more encounters, more information coming out about that. I think we're kind of seeing the same stuff with the Bigfoot. I mean, the whole Ohio like serves that happened out of nowhere. It's just crazy. But I've noticed that it's leading a lot of people to the ultimate conclusion of like, well, what's the answer to this? It's Jesus. It's Christ. It's Christ himself. And I've noticed that theme in your show a lot. And it's not from,

a place of like, well, you know, it's Bigfoot, but with a Jesus rapper on it. Because there are a lot of shows that do that, where it's like, you know, we're going to go really deep into the depths, but there's no like really coming back out. And you always end on a really hopeful note. And for those that are open to it, like talking about, talking about Christ and talking about your faith. And I've just been really encouraged, really encouraged by that. And it's honestly what made me want to reach out. I was like, okay, like, for sure we need to have this conversation. Okay. That's awesome. Because we're hitting a lot of the same threads. And I think it's just the Lord. I think it's just the Lord for those that have ears to listen and

eyes to see that the knowledge in those days will increase is what the word says. And the word increase is not in terms of quantity, but it's quality. The quality in which our knowledge will grow. like we're starting to put the pieces of the puzzle together and it's like okay we're kind of there was a knowledge that was lost but now it's it's coming back together if that makes sense absolutely and so I'm a few people I've picked up on that and it's so to share kind of what happened I would say about six seven months ago at least I got to a point where I was praying together and I was like, you know, at this point, if stuff, because before then, if stuff would come up, I'd be like, well, this isn't kind of that show. But I was at the point, I was like, you know,

there needs to be conversations that happen. So please help these conversations to just occur organically so we can talk about them on the show. So we can have conversations to do with different spiritual themes. And I mean, it started to happen and it started to, you know i would not put the breaks on um for for those conversations and um it and and there's some listeners who'll be like well you're reading too much and anything and that's fine you know but the way that i'm viewing it is that once i started to do that elliot there were some wild stuff that started to happen man and it's just like oh man um you know god is in control of everything but like the last few months have been absolutely wild with different testing things like

how do you how are you when you are in the entire world's view how are you when you tested that way and now you know it's like the the medical testing where it's like okay now you have a second round of cancer and and are you going to you know turn away and say how could you do this again are you going to rely fully on me as an adult, which is what me and my family are doing? You know, and so it is, you know, the future is unknown, but we are going, we're going to go through 100% and the goals to keep doing this so that we can, you know, continue to have these conversations if God would will it. whatever he wills is the important thing. So I'm glad that you picked up on that. I think it would also be,

if you would be comfortable with sharing it, I mean, it sounds like you have a really interesting story of how you got to this point. And I think it's important when individuals have things happen in their lives that it all builds together. And if you would, if you would be able to share, that would be amazing.

Of course. Yeah. So I guess going all the way back, my great-grandparents were into the occult. So that's like, that's kind of the full stop. Like, oh, that's where this kind of starts. So my great-grandmother was in the Eastern Star, and my great-grandfather was a 32nd degree Freemason. You can look him up, Colonel Jack Hoover,

but he was super, super into it. My dad had got him a little drunk one night and set up a tape recorder and recorded him and was getting him to talk about all these things back in the early 90s about Project High Jump, Project Blue Beam, Project Paperclip, like all of these different things that weren't public information. He was getting him to expound upon. but he was like okay now tell me about freemasonry he was like even under the influence he's like i'm never given away the secrets of the brother wow oh yeah it was deep so there there was definitely

more than just a natural light there was a spiritual oath that was taken to wear um you know those those things he wouldn't even expound on but my dad's earliest memory was actually um being placed on an altar and men in robes with candy. So that was my dad's earliest memory. So he's had a lot of experiences with the supernatural. And he can, his memory is so sharp like attack. And so he can just, he'll remember things and even things that we've experienced together. He's like, hey, do you remember that?

Like, even as I was making the notes for all the experiences we've had, he was like, do you remember this part of it? I was like, no, I didn't. Like making the correlation between the two. So he's as sharp as attack. He remembers all of these things that he's at. experience. And so as I was kind of growing up, growing up in a Christian household, it was like, I was still having these encounters. I mean, there was one night. And this was probably like, because I'd seen stuff out of the corner of my eye, I had seen shadows being cast on the wall,

and then they would just like melt down, like just melt into a puddle on the ground. And I had also seen like figures running and, and orbs in the sky and that kind of thing. So that stuff wasn't new to me, but the first time that I was like physically attacked was I had woke up one night with scratches all over my body after having a nightmare. It kind of, it only got more. It progressed from there because I want to say about a year later, because that would happen every few months or so. But about a year later, I'd had an experience to where I had sleep paralysis and, the way that this room was situated was that the bed was on one corner and then the closet was on the other. So it was like directly adjacent to the closet. And so my brother and I were

probably like 10 and 11 at this time. So we're we're on a king size mattress sharing this bed. This is this is Oklahoma. Come on. Like there's not enough there's not enough finances to go around for for multiple beds for four kiddos. And so he's still sound asleep. but I'm waking up and I'm like paralyzed. I'm not able to move and I'm just able to look down towards that closet and the door opens. Nothing's moving. I'm like trying to scream out from my brother or something like, hey, something's going on. And I feel something pressed down on me and like a dementor, like suck the breath out of me.

Come to find out like over the next, the course of the next week, I'm like coughing, like, like super bad. I'm having a hard time breathing. And I get diagnosed with pneumonia. And so it's, the spiritual is so much more real than like the natural in like a lot of ways and it has impacts on it. And I think that's a lot of kind of what we see with the Bigfoot phenomenon as well. But I, as I got, as I got older after that I gave my life to the Lord. So about a year after that I gave my life to the Lord. And all of those occurrences kind of stopped happening. And so I was about 17 at the time. And so I remember just being like, okay, Lord, like I'm getting ready to become a man. Like, I still don't really know what I'm doing. I'm just trying to figure stuff out. Like, Lord, I just need you

to show me the truth. Like, show me what's going on. Like, if there's anything that's being hidden from me, show it to me. And so I had had a dream that night, but I don't think it was a dream to where I was on a surgical table. And there were two beings that looked like the cover of communion, the two or the alien on the cover of communion, there were two of those. And they were looking down at me. I had never seen that book cover by the time.

After I described it to my dad, he was like, did they look? like the cover of communion. And I actually have a friend here who's from Oklahoma. We were born at the same hospital, a different time frame. He's about 55 or so. And he was like, hey, did they look like the aliens on the cover of communion? I was like, yes, they did. But I woke up in just a cold sweat of like, oh my gosh. Like there's definitely been some things that have happened to me with the supernatural that I wasn't even like considering before I had. given my life to Christ because I don't know I mean recalling that memory I don't know at what period in time that was but I know it was like me younger and so yeah kind of kind of from there I'd had

off and on experiences with sleep paralysis at the location to where all these encounters started happening and this is kind of like the crescendo this is like the kickoff event if you will and it does add a lot of background, like going into kind of my faith-based background does add a lot of context to kind of, I think, where the first encounter happened. But the, I was at one point staying at a friend's house and he's got a big property. He has a huge property and there's a guest house on the property. And so I was in between houses at this time. I still wasn't really making enough, you're not in ministry for the money. I wasn't making enough to be able to afford my own rent for a place yet, and especially as a creative, like, there just wasn't enough for that.

And so I was staying here and I woke up one night again with sleep paralysis. I hadn't had had sleep paralysis since I was that little boy. And I wake up and I see at the foot of my bed, the room is dark. Like it's darker than dark. Because I've woken up at like, like two or three in the morning and been able to see like what normal dark looks like at that time. This was like darker than dark, but I can see on the edge of my bed there's what looks like a gargoyle, like full on wings, like hunched over, staring at me at the foot of my bed. And I'm doing everything I can to get out the name of Jesus. And so I'm going, jeet, jesus, and I finally get it out.

And it's like you could almost hear like the air being let back into the room. It was the craziest thing. But it was like the darkness lifted, the gargoyle thing, whatever it was gone. And I was able to get up. And I reached over. I like lean forward. I remember because I was like, oh, I'm trying to move. Just trying to get up and out.

And I heard on the roof of this guest house what sounded like two, two feet running. jumping off and going into the woods. And I was like, what the heck was that about? And so I talked to my dad about all of this. And so I tell him about this. He's like, man, like, you know, we're coming down there. Because this was in 2023. He said, we're coming down there for a Manchester United game.

We're going to be also staying in another room in the guest house. Like, I'm going to fast. and I'm going to do spiritual warfare with whatever this is. And I was like, okay, man, you do you. Like, that's great. I'll just say the name of Jesus and make it go away. But he's great that way because he's like, he's so focused on his intimacy with the Lord that he's like,

no, I want to get these guys. And so he's fasting over the course of that whole week. And so he only told me, about like fully this experience what he saw after I told him like, hey, I think I'm having experiences with the Bigfoot. And he's like, funny, you should say that. And he tells me this story. So he fasted for a week. And he wakes up at two in the morning. And he's like, okay, Lord, like, this is it. Like, let's do this. And so he gets a coffee. He pops in a nicotine pouch and he walks outside. And he's just, he's just praising. He's singing worship because we enter his

courts with Thanksgiving and praise. And so he's just posturing himself to like be a vessel for what the Lord and the Holy Spirit want to do. So he's walking around. He's praying in front of this guest house. And he's looking off to, so the guest house faces the north. And he's looking off to, so the guesthouse faces the north. And he's looking off to the, the east, he's looking over, he's looking around, and you can still hear like the crickets, the frogs, the chickens, there's chickens on the property. And so he can hear all of that. It's like a real nice kind of like nature sound. He looks over to the west and there's this tree line.

And this tree line is like where we've seen everything happen. Like it's been all, most of these experiences that we're talking about today have been right on this tree line that's like right backed up to the property line. But he sees this big orb gets super bright, light up the whole sky. Everything goes quiet. So he's sitting there and he's had experiences with the kind of alien phenomenon. So he's thinking that that's what this is. Like, oh, these are the demons that disguise themselves as aliens kind of thing. And so he's like, okay. And he's still just continuing on. And so he's looking at. And so he's looking at. And so he's looking over to the west, he pans back over to the east and he's looking.

He slowly pans back and then something catches his eye. And he looks and what's standing there and he showed me this tree. This tree is probably 15, 16 feet tall. A lot of it, we had some storms, some really bad thunderstorms and tornado like weather that actually came through central Texas, which is really rare. but it knocked down some of the top of the tree. So it was probably taller at one point in time. But the bottom branch of this thing comes up to about 10 feet.

He sees standing right underneath this bottom branch to where there's like maybe an inch, maybe two inches, between the top of this thing's head to the bottom of this tree branch. Huge. Like gargantuan just, big foot. Like, he described it as just having a stump for a head. Like, there was no neck, huge shoulders, the size of like watermelons. Like, they were ginormous. The legs were so thick that you couldn't see any light going through them, anything like that.

But he said that the thing that struck him the most was its eyes, that they were so white. And I don't know if I've heard, like, I've heard of red eyes. I've heard of yellow eyes when it comes to a lot of the the Sasquatch encounters. But they were so white that there was like a bluish hue coming off of them. They were like emanating their own light. And he's like, he's standing there.

His eyes are the size of saucers at this point. And he's like, oh my gosh, that's really there. Like that's not some wispy like thing or whatever. And he hears. So he told me this afterwards as well. He hears whispering. He hears what sounds like whispering coming from the tree line. And so he, he's like, oh, my gosh. And he feels the spirit of the Lord told him, like, you're going to break. Like, turn around. Like, you're going to, this is going to break you. And so he turns around. And he's telling me, like, he's going. getting emotional just telling me the story. Like he's reliving it every time he's telling me the story. But he was like, you know, I wanted to fall to my knees so bad, but the Lord just kept on telling me to stand. And it brought back to my mind, Ephesion 6, stand therefore, having girded yourself and going through all the pieces of the armor of God. But it's that standing. It's not

giving way to fear. And so he lifts his hands. he feels something changes the atmosphere shifts and it feels like the impact point of a nuclear bomb like just boom this huge wave goes off and so he still has his back turned and uh he hears the crickets and the frogs and all that starts coming back and uh he feels the lord tell him okay you can turn around so he turns around and he just sits on these adderall and back chairs that are out in front of the, um, that are in front of the guest house.

And so he checks the time. So he walks out there at two o'clock. This feels like the span of like 10 minutes. It was 4.30 in the morning when he checks his, checks his phone. So I know lost time is a big, is a big theme for, uh, for a lot of these encounters.

Um, whether it's big foot, ghosts, aliens, all of that, missing 411. But yeah, I'll let you speak because I feel like I've been hogging hogging some air here. That's incredible. Are you able to share what region of Oklahoma this is for Conta? So this was in Belton, Texas. Oh, this is in Belton, Texas? Yes. So when you had made the report originally about the Belton Bigfoot, I was like, oh. Oh, yeah. I kind of got some validation on it. I ended up watching one of, I can't remember the investigator's name, but that went to go check it out.

And he was like, Jimmy Tungate probably. Yes. Yes. He was like, it's kind of inconclusive. I was like, dang, that's kind of disheartening. But no, because he had had this experience. I was like, oh, my gosh. And so he wasn't able to see any of the detail.

I mean, other than just general silhouette, the way that he described it, and he's a kid of the 80s. So he described it as looking as like juggernaut from X-Men to where just a dome top, like huge shoulders and just thick legs to where the arms were super long and the legs were kind of short. That's a really good way to put it. I don't think I've ever had anyone say the juggernaut thing, but that makes sense. It's really good. my goodness is it a thing where have you heard anything else around belton or or this is the one the one connection that that you've had where you saw the bigfoot report and then you had your dad's experience i mean i i've talked to a couple people um that i mean belton is pretty much

part of it is connected to Fort Hood. And so I've talked to people when I've shared some of these other Bigfoot stories that have happened here in Belton on that same property. But I've shared some of these with people at my church. And like, yeah, well, you know, I was on Fort Hood because our church is a lot of military people. And so I think if you present yourself as sincere as like, hey, like, this is something that has happened to me. they're a lot more open to sharing a lot of that stuff, especially military guys. Military guys, it's like you get called crazy for much less.

But legitimately had a gentleman that told me. He was like, yeah, I mean, I was on Fort Hood. I was on patrol with a group of guys and we saw a Chupacabra. Like, we were on the field. And we were just in our transport. and somebody had a had a spotlight and they shined it out because we heard like wrestling out in the out in the field and so we shined it out and there was this dog that had like ears like yoda ears out to the side super skinny long and no hair on it and it just looked at him

and one of the guys not the guy that's telling me this story because he was terrified he was like that's a that's a effing chuba cover he's like i'm not doing anything with that and um one of the guys that was with him uh started walking towards it and this thing bolted like legitimately blink and it was gone um so you know i think there is i mean you're you're getting at the dog man stuff on bases and that type of thing and so i i don't doubt that here at fort hood and in the area in general if there isn't some dogman out here. I mean, that's the central Texas kind of folklore for Texas history. For Oklahoma history, you're talking about Bigfoot because you're talking about the Native American kind of stories.

For Texas history, it's the dogman when talking about Native American folklore. And so I do think there is a precedent for some of that. I haven't heard a ton of stories from around here other than the ones that I've experienced. and family and friends have also experienced at this at this same spot. Gotcha. So that's awesome context to have. Thank you. So you're saying that you have also experienced cryptic-themed encounters yourself.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So it's funny because it's like I have. this kind of experience and then this was so in September 2024 so this was about a year later I tell my dad about this experience and so that's what makes him tell me hey like I've had this experience at that same guest house like just so you know here's the context for it so it was September 2024 and same thing similar to the first encounter that I had that kind of made my dad fast and pray and end up seeing a bakefoot, I woke up at 2 in the morning. And it wasn't sleep paralysis or anything like that, but it was just random that I woke up

at 2. I was like, why am I waking up at 2? And the way that this guest house is situated is that one side of the guest house is a converted gym space. And so it has like a glass garage door. and of course it's the side that I'm staying on, the glass garage door side. The other side is more of like a normal kind of house, but the side that I'm on has this giant glass garage door. And so I can hear everything.

I can hear the crickets. I can hear the frogs. I can hear the chickens. And it's like nice kind of ambient sound to fall asleep too. And so I wake up at two. Like, why am I waking up? Like, this is weird. Everything's quiet.

And so I'm like a way you can. noticing that everything's quiet. I'm like, that's weird. And then I smell the skunk smell. And so I'm like, I'm like sitting here. I'm laying in my bed. I'm like, okay. So I don't have the context of my dad's story going into this. So this is like my first encounter, my first kind of interaction with any of this. I'm laying in my bed. Like, that's weird. And I start hearing what sounds like, and I tried to rationalize it. As I'm laying in bed, my brain's like trying to find like the shortcuts of like, oh, it's this, oh, it's this. But what it sounded like at the time was somebody or something, like a raccoon or something, taking a rubber band, pulling it and letting it go.

But it was like rhythmic. And so I like was going through my mind. I was like, maybe it's a raccoon, like messing with the weather stripping. I was like, a raccoon wouldn't do that rhythmically, and it doesn't sound like it's coming from the door. And so I'm listening to it still, and it's like, I realize I'm like, that's wood. That's like something hitting up against wood. And, like, okay, that's weird. And I see, so again, facing at the north, the guest house is facing the north, I'm seeing,

and I look, and the chicken coop. is right next to this main house. And so there's a motion light that's on the chicken coop, and it goes off. And so, like, I'm hearing this sound over here, and then I'm also seeing, as I'm looking out, the motion light of the chicken coop. And I'm able to see it through this glass garage door. And I'm looking to see if there's, like, a raccoon crawling down there, like, oh, maybe that's somehow what I was hearing.

And then this is, again, getting. more into the woo, I see what looks like a four-foot-tall shadow walking around the chicken coop. But what's weird about it is that there's multiple walls and dividers between these chicken coops is that it's like phasing through all the chicken coops. And so at this time, I'm like very familiar with like the shadow people and aliens. And so I'm like, oh, I know what this is. Okay.

And so I turn over in my covers. And I'm just like, Lord, I close my eyes and I just pray. I'm like, Lord, whatever this is, we just bind it in the name of Jesus. I have my eyes closed and I see, you know, it's like when you have your eyes closed and you can see there's a bright flash of light, I see that. It bounces off the wall. But there's this bright flash of light and I have my eyes closed and I open him again. Everything comes back. And so that was like my encounter that I was like, hey, dad, these are kind of the experiences I was having.

Wes on Sasquatch Chronicles actually had an episode with a young lady that described wood knocking as the same thing. It's like she thought it was this like rubber band snapping sound because that was what it sounded like. And so I went to weather stripping like, of course that's what it was. But it wasn't. Like even in that moment, I realized that it was something hitting up against wood. So I didn't see anything. I was like, I was petrified. I was like, whatever that is, I don't want to see it.

I still have to wake up for work in the morning kind of thing. Right. Oh, man, that is wild. So that happened. How long after your dad's encounter on the same property again? So about a year. About a year. Okay.

Yeah. So this happened in July, 2023. mine was September 2024 and there may have been there may have been some other stuff that had happened that I just like wasn't paying attention to it's

that's very likely because now that I know to look for it I've definitely noticed a lot more things than a lot more frequently stuff has happened so did you have you guys ever had a conversation with the owner of the property and been like hey do you know what's going on here or have

Have you had stuff going on here or? So I have. Not in, you know, kind of like, hey, this stuff is happening on the property, but have you guys had anything weird happen? Right. And they've just been kind of like, no, no, not really. But the son of the owners of the property did. So this was this last year, May 23rd, 2025. five. So little boy, he was probably five or six at this time. And so it was a birthday party or something.

And so I had moved out at this time already. So after that encounter that I had in September, I was like, I'm getting out of here. Like, I don't like this. If there's Bigfoot on this property, I don't want to live here. It's like, I'm not messing with it. But so I was over there for a birthday party and I had just left. And so I get a call five minutes later from one of my friends that was also at the party. She's like, hey, are you still here? I was like, no. And she's like frantic. And she says, well, the little boy, he had seen something off in the woods. And I, and he described it as a tall person. And he's like, so I do have an audio recording of it that I put in that folder. Because I talked to him about it the day up.

And I tried not to, you know, lead with any details or anything. But when she was telling me about it, I could hear him on the other side just like, something got him. Like something like spooked him to the point where he like ran to the nearest adult and was like, hey, there's a person back there. There's a really tall person back there, like walking through the wood. And so he, yeah, in the audio recording, he, he adds in details about some dog, something or rather. And I didn't leave with any of that. And so that was like another part that I was like, as I'm like recording it listening to him,

I'm like, what? Because he says something along the lines of, well, it looked like a man, but then it dropped onto the ground and it looked like a dog. I was like, what the heck? Kids do say the darndest things. So again, I tried to just, I asked him. I was like, hey, what did you see last night? And that was it.

Like, I just left it at that. I just left it rolling. And he told me, and I was like, very interesting, very cool. Wow. My goodness. So there's definitely some stuff going on in that property. Yeah. You've got people of all ages having experience.

experiences. Yeah, that's that is some some wild, wild stuff. Do you think what are your thoughts about what Bigfoot is? Because it's that's such a conversation in itself, you know? And I'm I'm not sure myself yet, but I'm curious if you if you've had any thoughts about that over the last few years. Oh yeah. I mean, I don't think you can. Like, not if you're a Christian in this space and not like speculate try and see what the Greek and Hebrew mean over here to try and figure it out. So I mean, I had always just chalked it up to a Nephilim. I mean, really like because of my encounters with the alien stuff, I was really following a lot of L.A. Marzuli and Gary Wayne at the time. And so like on the trail, the Nephilim, I was like, oh, that's what Bigfoot is. It's a Nephilim. And then when I started hearing more about the subject from my dad's story to multiple witnesses that you've interviewed and others have interviewed, like the supernatural aspect that goes into it, like the woo aspect

of it. I was like, I don't know. But I mean, I think Doc did a great job. We had a student conference here at the church not too long ago last week. And there's 150 students there, 80 students said, hey, we want to learn more about Bigfoot. And so we had a breakout session where we talked about Bigfoot, aliens, ghosts. And it was a lot of fun. And it just like went to show that like there is a lot of interest in this subject, especially with young people. It's like we have a lot of these things going on with the supernatural.

Where does that fit into Christianity? And so I used Doc Brown's approach with it of the Sons of Esau because it's letting the text speak. You know, Esau means Harry, asking these kids like, how many of you know what Jacob means? Deceiver, deceiver. How do you know what Esau means? Crickets? It means Harry. And they're like, oh my gosh. I don't know if I necessarily like fall into that. Like, I think there's definitely some more nuance to it. I think it could be. That could be a part of it of the Edomites and the Amalekites kind of

turning into whether that's, you know, getting to first Enoch, Nephalim spirits type of stuff with Bigfoot, but there is like a corporeal physicality to it. And so I actually tend to

lean more towards Revelation 6'8 with the wild beasts of the earth with the theory on. in the Greek, which is like a demonic beast. It's the same word that's used to describe the great beast in the book of Revelation. But that same word is used to describe both of like wild beasts and also the beast of Revelation. And I think even a lot of the, I mean, at least some of the Catholic Church had this opinion as well because there's the painting of the judgment.

And you can see in the Sistine Chapel on this painting of the judgment. you can see some of these creatures, these theory on poking their head out of caves, and one of them just looks like a big foot. I think there's a code to it right now to where, I think in a lot of the same ways that as Christians, we accept Christ into our lives. Like there's an invitation to things. I think the same thing is true of the demonic. I think the wild beast, the Sasquatch, maybe even some of the dog, man, I don't know, some of those might be government made.

Verdicts still out on that one. We're still leading more answers on that one. But I think right now the way that the game is being played with these Bigfoot is that if you're not attacking them, they can't attack you because it's not that time yet. And so I think that's that's a big part of it of like you can't aggress them. Because once they, once they break that code, like if they were to attack you, like physically hurt you, I think they can scare you. I think they can spook you. I think that's still within their parameters. They're going right up to the line of what they can do.

That's why bluff charging is such a thing. Right. Of like them getting right up to the line, but not doing it. Because they're just waiting. They're waiting for that moment to where revelation, judgment comes upon the earth, and they're able to do that. Because I think that is, in terms of like where we're looking at an end times, kind of us seeing more and more of this stuff, I think that plays right into it. Yeah. I mean, it's like you can't help but think about stuff like that.

It's like as in the days of Noah, right? It's just, it's, it's wild stuff. And my buddy Josh from Mysteries Unknown, he has this story. A gentleman told him, I believe, where there was a dog man story. And it's wild where pretty much it tells them like when I can, it tells the individual the dog man does. It's like, when I can, you are the first one. I'm taking out. Wow.

And that's like, whoa, dude. Yeah. That lines right up with it, man. Yeah. You know? So, you know, I talk to all types of witnesses on the show and there are, you know, everyone from people that think that we're dealing with some undiscovered great ape or maybe interdimensional type deal or Nephilim or what have you.

And the one thing that keeps coming out. up that really makes me wonder is when you have these accounts where the individual, the only thing that worked was the individual saying the name of Jesus. And it's like, well, man, like, if it's just, if it's just undiscovered great ape, then why is the name of Jesus really working pretty good here? You know, like, it's, there's a guy I talked to from the Mount Hood area. And he, he was having so many things happen and so much oppression that he just started going and like using all these these old testament names and new testament names and like nothing was working for some reason he was like just trying to reach out to something and he like stumbled upon the name of jesus and it was like bam and he was like oh there's something there and i was like yeah there's something there's like that's right crazy man so it's good stuff but Man, what a cool thing that you were able to have that conversation with such a group of young people because it's like it seems that there are conversations that need to be had and most churches today are not willing to have them either because they don't see that they are. It's something big is going to have to happen for all the churches out there to be like,

oh, we need to have these conversations because this is legitimate. Like, yeah, it's legitimate. It's happening in the Bible too. Like all the supernatural stuff, why it didn't just stop in the Bible, right? But wild, wild, wild stuff. So man, like, how does, how does having, usually when a person will have experiences like this or have, you know, be related to someone that has had experiences like this, is how does this affect your day to day? Because what I've seen is that it will,

sometimes the person will just be freaked out and run away or it'll just set them down a path. And so how has this affected you? Are you someone that's like, I got to figure this out or how is it affecting you in your life? Yeah. I mean, so like even at work, I'm the Bigfoot guy. And I totally accept that.

I think what's happening a lot with the church in general is for too long we've been addressing the symptoms of a spiritual problem. And so we're focusing on all these things that are kind of going on in the culture. I think those are good things to address. But we've denied the power thereof. We've denied the spiritual. And I think that's a lot of kind of what's going on. is people, they just see the world that they live in as the world that there is. I mean, I've had conversations with missionaries that have, you know, had a lion charging at them.

And they say the name of Jesus. And that lion changes back into a man. I can't explain that over here in the West. But we have such a, to steal a word from L.A. Marzuli, we have a trumcated view. of what the spiritual world is, of what Christianity is supposed to be. You see all of the early church, what is the early church doing? They're going to war at the gates of hell. Like they're fighting the things that would keep them up at night.

The disciples had a very real knowledge of the supernatural to where when they see Jesus walking on water, they're like, oh, that's a ghost. That's an unclean spirit walking on the water. And we kind of just glance over that. like, oh, yeah, they have tall tails like we did. Like, no, that was real. Like, they were casting these same things out of people and putting them into swine. And so I think what's, what has happened with, and I'm trying to, I'm trying to capture that thought,

trying to reel it in. But what has happened is that we have gotten so far removed. And I think it's, I think it's intentional from the spiritual, from the supernatural, from the supernatural, from the kind of spooky and weird to the point where, you know, talking about having a moment that would just wake up the church. I thought disclosure, I thought alien disclosure would be that for the longest time. I know, me too. And like here we are, like all this information is coming out.

Everything short of them just saying, yeah, aliens exist. Like we're getting biweekly releases of information from the, the White House here in the U.S. And it's like we can't, at what point do we actually say like, okay, like there is, there is more going on than meets the eye. And I think the other problem with it too is that you have a lot of these guys in these spaces that aren't familiar with the subject of the supernatural, whether that's Bigfoot, aliens, all of that.

I keep on coming back to aliens because this is where I've seen it the most, especially with the disclosure stuff is that they'll kind of just write it off of well they're just demons and kind of leave it at that and it's like okay have you ever gone to battle with a demon do you do you know what spiritual warfare looks like when you're when you're actually up against this thing to where there is some physicality to it like there are nuts and bolts to it there are nuts and bolts to it there are nuts and bolts to big foot there are nuts and bolts to dog man what are you going to do in those situations to where as it was in the days of noah like you said earlier like there is going to be a time where these things start like coming after people like it wasn't that long ago that we had stories

about dragons attacking people about like the past negating the past 500 years like this has been human history of us fighting mythological creatures and so there was a good portion of the crusades and the crusades you know mostly focuses on Jerusalem and all of that but there was also some like mythological beast fighting that was going on during the Crusades as well that you don't hear a lot about but it was it because of the time that has gone between now and then and those things possibly going into hiding I don't know I don't know why there's a gap between like this point in time and then this point in time like these creatures do exist and then all of a sudden they're just not around anymore and we don't it's a myth um I don't know

I think there is, there's something possibly nefarious going on with that. To catch people by surprise whenever these things do happen. Because that's, that's, that's what's going to be really interesting with, you know, with my, with my theory of like if we do have bigfoot's charging out of the woods and start attacking people, it's like, Oh my goodness, can you imagine? Yeah. Oh my goodness. Like could happen, dude, but it's like, I think it's time for like it is, because you're

because you're kind of talking about like, you know, you do hear all these missionary stories about coming from Africa and like Papua New Guinea and like just really weird, really weird stuff. Yeah. Oh my goodness. Can you imagine if that would ever happen in America or Canada? And it's like, man, it's like, I think it's. It's it's either we're there or we're very close.

Like it's time, like it's our time at bat like for the weirdness, the weird spiritual stuff. Yeah. And we have to be ready to handle that. And, you know, it's like there's a lot of, you know, one individual that comes to mind. Like my buddy Harley Owens from Tennessee, strong Christian guy. And he's always, he hangs out with people like Doc Brown from Prometheus Lens and those guys. And whenever we talk, we talk a lot. And he's like, he's like, you got to stay prayed up every time, every time.

And like after, man, after I spent time in Tennessee, I don't know if you've heard any of this stuff yet or if it's come out yet. But like, man, I was having weird stuff happen in Tennessee big time. We stayed on, you know the Cumberland Plateau and we were staying in this camp having like, having like, like a weak camp out expedition type deal, a Tennessee cryptic camp out. They put me in the cabin where all the weird stuff happens where like people get chased out. I was kind of like, oh yeah, that'll be cool. Like, let's have something happen. But dude, like the last day, I was taking a nap in my cabin and it was right before I had gotten to sleep and I hear a voice in my head and it said, gotcha.

And I immediately got up and I was like, I'm out of here. Like I went up to the lodge where people were. And I was like, it was weird. And then the week after that was when the whole, you know, lymph node got really swollen. And then I had to have surgery. So take that as a lot of gosh. Yeah. Yeah.

So there's some weird stuff out there, man. And you just have to be ready for anything. And I mean, it could all be coincidence, but like you never know, right? And like, so it's like you have to be. There's not a Hebrew word for coincidence. No, that's a great point, Elliot. Yeah, thank you. That is a really, really good point.

So, you know, you got to be in your, in your Bible. You got to be praying because the weird stuff has happened. But, Ellie, this has been such a fantastic conversation. I want to make sure that you were able to share everything that you had. wanted to share on on the show today. Oh, yeah. I mean, so there was there was one more story. And this one has multiple witnesses.

This one, we got some, some eye shine out of it. So this was Thanksgiving this last year. So this was like fairly recent. We were all back out by the guest house. On these Audurondack chairs, there's a fire pit out there. and we're all sitting at this just having conversation it was like 11 p.m. It was getting, you know, it was actually super cold here in Texas, which is rare, rare at any point in time for it to get cold, but it was pretty cold.

It was cold and windy. And we had a neighbor that came down the driveway. And so the way that this property is situated and I'll kind of send over you the addressed to kind of see how everything's situated afterwards. But there's this wrap-around driveway or private drive that goes through passing by the guest house. And so there's this lady in this car and she pulls up. And another lady pulls up in a white Tahoe. And she asks this lady, did you see anything? No one? And so my dad, like he's so funny he's like oh yo here we go again and so he has he's like you guys heard that

exchange right and so i'm out there my brother's out there my both my sisters are out there their husbands are out there and so we have this huge group that's out there and we all hear this exchange and so um my dad even had them like repeat it back to him like hey like what did they say. And he was like, okay, just making sure I'm not going crazy. Making sure I'm not the crazy one here. And so, like, five minutes goes by and we hear screaming gibberish coming from a mile north, like loud, like, like, the normal like big foot chatter, but like screaming. And so we hear one over here. We hear another one in another direction. And we hear this one. in the north start moving.

And so we're all out here experiencing this. Like, what is going on? And so we go over to this bush line, the tree line that's right on the property line. And we're just scanning it. My dad has one of those TikTok super bright flashlights. And he's just scanning the line. And we can see the deer eye shine, the yellow deer eye shine, all kind of looking up at us. but then there's another set of eyes that's slightly above them and unlike the deer you know deer

and headlights are kind of like they stay this other set of eyes was like moving around and like trying to get behind the brush as my dad was like shining the light at it um these were uh it'd be like dude it wasn't it wasn't far away it was maybe like six to ten feet in front of us like it was close um but it was also green eyeshine and i believe there was somebody on your show that actually said uh yeah the only thing that has green eyeshine is apes and so my dad later heard that episode and he was like oh my gosh like it would make sense why it was dodging us and all of that um but they were it was just moving moving and getting away from it and so We end up, everybody gets spooked out other than me and my dad and my brother.

They're like, okay, it's getting too cold. They said, we're going inside. And so we're out there for maybe another 30 minutes and we hear the screaming again. But this time it's like a woman scream coming from the southwest. And it's like even inside of the guest house, they could hear it. Like this, again, jargon woman scream. It's 11 o'clock at night later than that at this point. it's cold, it's windy.

Nobody's out making those kinds of sounds. Because it's mostly an older kind of area as well. A lot of people there are kind of older on bigger property. And so my dad and I, we stick around. My brother heads back home. And my dad and I, we're sitting out and we're facing the, we're facing towards the guest house. So we're looking towards the south.

we see from behind us a bright blue flash light up the whole yard and we look at each other so he's standing to my left we look at each other both of our faces are in blue we turn around and whatever it is this gone so there is there is a ton of stuff that that happens on this property like we've seen UFOs flying over it um i mean it's just been it's been crazy uh even in broad daylight seeing in that in that bush area as well this was I think a couple days later because everybody was here for my sister's wedding and so I had seen what looked like just a rounded square like a rounded cube moving through the tree line and I see these deer start walking out and I'm realizing that where this cube was that I saw moving through the trees it just looked shadowy like it almost

looked opaque or far away, but I saw it moving through the trees and it disappeared to where, like, getting to the other side of the tree where you'd see it poke through. It didn't. I saw these deer walking by. I realized that like where the top of this cube was to where these deer were, this cube was like 10 feet off the ground, like the top of this cube. And so it's been very, very interesting to, to say the least on that property. My fiancé, she'll come down to visit me, but she won't stay there because her and other guests have heard tapping on the window. They've heard footsteps outside. I think I even sent you a picture of grease marks on the window from some of the tapping as well.

But if you look at the size of it, it is huge. is that something I could I could put in the oh absolutely yes YouTube version yeah yes awesome awesome very good thank you wow dude that man whoever's got that property they've they've got some stuff

going on hope that they are prepared to deal with that he's he's prayed up and I think the interesting part is that all the stuff has been after my dad had prayed over the property line. It hasn't come on to the property line.

So I guess other than the knocking on the glass, but as far as us seeing stuff, might be a game of like red light green light to where they're not entrenching on the property. So it'll just come up to the property line and stop there. Dude, so your dad was praying the property line? Oh, yeah. Okay.

That's awesome. I've heard that before. I think, I personally think there's something to that. Yeah. Is, yeah, I mean, that's really interesting. I need to look more into that. But it makes total sense. It really, really does that you would do that.

Yeah, very, very cool, very cool stuff. This has been a super uplifting conversation for me. Oh, yeah. just incredible incredible encounters that you've shared too and I Elliot thank you so much

for coming on this show I think if you I mean we both know we listen to stuff like this and you're probably going to have other experiences

along the way you know if you put yourself on the front lines of of spiritual warfare and things related to that you're going to have

some interesting experiences so you know, definitely, definitely keep in touch if anything else happens. I'm glad that you are talking to people in the church about things that need to be addressed. And thank you for doing that, man. Of course. Thank you for everything that you're doing. I mean, just the way that you present, you let people share what they've gone through, their testimonies, if you will. And then just subtly, like, hey, there's Jesus over here. I give him a try.

But I really do appreciate everything that you do. And I appreciate you for having me on. Again, sorry about scheduling conflicts here and there. But I do appreciate very much being able to talk to you, Jeremiah. You are in as I said earlier, it happened at the right, right time. So thank you so much. We'll definitely keep in touch. Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something directly to a very specific group of listeners.
