Bigfoot Society - It’s Followed Me Since Childhood!

Episode Date: April 16, 2025

Kevin’s story isn’t your typical Bigfoot encounter.In this episode, we sit down with Kevin — a listener who first reached out in the YouTube comments — to share a lifetime of eerie, deeply personal encounters that span West Virginia, Ohio, and Delaware. From shadowy Sasquatch-like figures peering through a back door in Warwood, WV, to glowing, static-filled humanoids near Wilmington, Kevin’s experiences are unsettling, unique, and surprisingly consistent over the years.He opens up about his childhood experiences with sleep paralysis, the mysterious presence of “three watchers,” a terrifying yet calm face-to-face moment in the woods, and a larger question that looms over all of it: Do trauma and personal suffering make us more open to these encounters?This is a raw, honest conversation that blends the paranormal with personal healing — and it might just change how you think about Bigfoot, reality, and the unseen things that follow us through life.Locations mentioned:Wheeling, WV • Warwood • Athens, OH • Wilmington, DE • Delaware–PA Border🎉 Sasquatch Summerfest 2025Mark your calendars!

in the forgotten corners of Appalachia. This isn't a hunter's tale. It's from a man named Kevin who's been seeing strange things his whole life, a shadowy figure glowing like static and three watchers at the foot of his bed, and a Sasquatch not deep in the forest, but hiding behind a tree just miles from I-95. From West Virginia to Delaware, the encounters followed him, and through trauma, healing in time, they never really stopped. This isn't just a Bigfoot sighting.

It's a lifetime of being watched. So this is the story of Kevin and the Sasquatch in the suburbs. So stay with us. All right, Bigfoot Society. You've got the privilege of talking to Kevin today. Kevin is an individual who got introduced to each other in the YouTube comments where a lot of really great accounts come from if people wanted to know. But he's got a few really interesting things that have happened over the years, including a state that we don't hear a lot from. So I'm excited to hear from Kevin today.

Welcome to the show. How's it going, man? All right. Pretty good. Thank you. Absolutely. You know, Kevin, I want to make sure that you have all the time that you need to share what you've had happened because we are going to be talking about multiple things occurring today. So I'm going to go ahead and pass things over to you and feel free to take us back to when you first started having these interactions in your past. Fair enough. Start by saying, you know, none of them are the intense, exciting kind of encounters where

something chased me or, you know, anything like that. They're all just pretty much weird seeing something really weird. So I guess I'll jump right in. The first one would be, I think I was relatively like eight, nine, something like that. I live back in Wheeling, West Virginia, Warwood, actually. My grandparents, I was staying over at their house, and their house, like, when you come in the front door,

you look straight ahead, if you keep walking straight, you'll go right out the back door. But, like, just to kind of paint the picture, the living room is off to the side, and if you cross the hall, it goes up the steps to, you. the bedroom. And I said, good night to my grandparents in the living room, turn around, and was walking across, like, it's like two steps through the hall before you get to the actual stairs.

And as I did it, I mean, it was just, you know, that feeling you get where you're like, something's looking at me. So you kind of, I looked over to my left, down through the kitchen, and right up at the back door, like it's the kind of door. Like, it's the kind of door. it's like a big wooden door with a window pane. It's the top part and the rest of it's all wood around the bottom. So about three feet maybe off the ground, something like that. There were these three little heads peeking in, like just staring at me. And it looked like they were smiling or laughing.

And it really creeped me out. And I just kind of looked over, saw them, and just kind of put my head down, scurried up the steps and completely forgot about that until I was like until about eight seven years ago something like that my mom reminded me of it um but yeah I it's it's really weird um the best way I could explain it is they were like I said about maybe three four feet tall um and they had haircuts well or whatever um reminiscent of like the bull cut that you kind of see on like the Aztec Mayan uh I guess groups um so like dark hair and just like kind of bull cuts or whatever you want like kind of like no from the three

stooges um all three of them they were all about the same height and just staring in at me and like I said I couldn't tell if they were smiling or laughing and you know as a little kid. I was just kind of freaked out and went right up the steps and went to bed. Didn't feel afraid or anything. That's kind of a reoccurring theme through a couple of these encounters or whatever you want to call them. But yeah, for the life of me, I could not tell you what they were. They weren't other kids. The area we lived in, well, yeah, we lived in Warwood was it's like kind of like a city, the way like inner city blocks are. with like an alley behind it, but our alley backed up to the tennis course, not other houses.

And they had like their own yard, Finston, garage and patio on the other, or driveway on the other side of it. So there was nobody, especially at that time of night, coming into the yard. And I had asked my grandparents, were my cousins over last night with a friend or something? And they're like, no, no, they're at their moms. and ironically they were in Dover, Delaware at the time, which is where I live now, but not Dover, but Delaware. But yeah, so there was really nobody else in our family or as my friends or anybody like other little kids

who would fit that height that would have been coming up to the back door staring in like that. Like I said, it's not like an exciting encounter, but it's weird and I still don't know what it is and when you couple it with the other things that go on throughout my life it kind of fits the bill for that so I don't know what they who they were what they were there's no reason to think that they were any other person we would know there's no other reason for anybody to be there but yeah that's about it for the first one uh kind of um you know anti-clinactic there But yeah, definitely weird, definitely creepy, freaked me out. And yeah, that was kind of it for that one. And the one, now, I guess in between that one and the one here in Delaware,

throughout my entire life, I've had, you know, like night terrors and stuff where you wake up screaming, really weird ones that don't make much sense. But regardless, you wake up terrified. but something else I've dealt with a lot is the whole sleep paralysis thing. And it's not just the sleep paralysis where like you can't move, but it's like you wake up and you're kind of awake. And it's like you're squinting your eyes. Like you can barely see out of your eyes at all.

But you can see enough to recognize your room or wherever you're sleeping. And I mean, it's happened dozens of times. I never counted. And it's happened all over the place. It happened in West Virginia, Delaware. It happened to Florida once. I mean, you name it. Any place I've been,

it's pretty much happened multiple times. The weirdest part of that is it's not just the sleep paralysis. There are always three, like kind of grayish, dark kind of beings, entities, I guess. I don't know what you want to call them. I'm sure, like, at the best I can explain it, a lot of people might say, oh, they're gray aliens, but I don't know what they are. But they were always there either at the side of my bed or the foot of my bed, and it's terrifying.

I mean, it's something that I wouldn't wish on any kid especially. But over time, I learned to kind of breathe my weight. out of the sleep paralysis. Like, it's hard to do, especially when you're in that moment, especially when you're younger, but eventually I figured out that, you know, okay, I'm freaking out, but I got to calm down and just start kind of controlling my breathing, and it'll go away.

And when it goes away, I wake up and nothing's there. Now, I'm still kind of freaked out, but there's nothing around my room. Everything's how it was, nobody came in. You know, it wasn't like my friends or family or anybody messing with me. It was just these three things that would always be there like they're watching me while I'm sleeping. And again, here we are. And so that's another one.

Like there's three of those. There was three of the things at the back door, my grandparents. So that's what I wonder about a lot is like little connections like that. I'm sure I'll think of something else to add in as we're going. But that, yeah, that's something that's happened throughout my entire life. I will say, and this connects to what we mentioned a little bit ago, trauma, abuse, everything that falls under that category pretty much. I've always been wondering if whatever any of these things are, not just what I've seen, but you want to talk about, Sasquatch, dogman, any of it. you know i listened to a lot of this stuff um you know like uh your show especially uh several others

i don't know if i should name them or not but um you can name them i don't care i'm not one of those shows go ahead okay cool well that's awesome because it's all big family in my turn um The Sasquatch Chronicles, How to Hunt. I just forgot to. Monstrous with Robert Prevo. There's a couple of other ones, but those ones and yours are the bulk of what I listen to. I kind of bounce back and forth and obsessed with this one

and then obsessed with that one. But throughout all of them, you always end up at some, not all of them, but there's always some kind of, you always run into somewhere along the way, whether it's some kind of like alcoholism, addiction, sexual abuse, physical, domestic, there's always some kind of trauma.

And we're not always, but when there is a trauma, it always seems that these things show up. And again, no matter which one of them it is, any of these entities or cryptids or whatever we want to refer to them as, I always wonder if do they, this might sound silly, but do they just feel safer revealing themselves to us, maybe because they think nobody will believe this, because we're this or that,

or if because of the trauma, if we are in some way, shape, or form more open mentally, in a way or emotionally or spiritually maybe, I don't know. But I've always wondered, like, is there something about people who kind of suffer these things or deal with these things that makes them more susceptible to these beings showing up in their lives? And that's honestly the one connection I can make with myself is I'm not boohooing or whining, but I'm just stating a fact. I've been through a lot of crap no matter what you want to say

like call it. It's been a part of my life since I was a little kid. And that makes me wonder if like do they show up because of that or does that lure them in or does it happen because of them? You know, it could be any of that stuff. I have no idea.

But so, yeah, I'm just kind of throwing that out there. That's something I've always wanted to ask And I've always said, if I ever make it on one of these shows, I'm going to mention that because I want to hear back, I want feedback in the comments. I want to hear like, what do you people think? Does anybody else, well, especially does anybody else have anybody seen these things or dealt with stuff like this? I want to know what these things are. But I also want to know, like, how many people that have ended up seeing these things.

I mean, yeah, you got your hunters who are out there in the woods or any, like, tough stuff like that. But for me, my stuff has never been in the woods. the one of my grandparents were nestled right between the Ohio River and like foothills of the Appalachians but it's on the outskirts of wheeling a city so it's not like we're up in the hills it's a relatively populated area

um and we'll be other one Kevin I will jump in in response to your your question there from this side uh please do I mean I I can tell you dude, the amount of interviews I'm thinking of right now where the witness says something to the

effect of, I just went through a divorce or I just lost a close family member or fill in the blank with just wild, you know, wild traumatic experiences. That seems to be a huge factor that is a commonality and I'm not really sure how to explain it but I'm right there with you that a lot of times there's a huge traumatic experience that happens with some of these witnesses yeah yeah that's that's kind of what I was thinking like it just seems like and maybe that's something I mean not to get too into the way we live these days but the way we live these days is kind of off the path from what we were probably intended to do. Like, I'm not going to, I'm not trying to go down that rabbit hole, but it just seems that we as a society don't really live properly.

And when these kind of traumatic things happen, they kind of like tear you down to your core in some way. And maybe that kind of, it brings you more in touch with yourself, which might bring us more. in touch with who we really are as a species. And maybe that's why some of these things are more interested in us at that time. This is Matt Rogers from Los Cultureistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen-Yang.

Because we're closer to, I don't know, I've got to be careful with my words, I guess, but we're raw. We're not bogged down in electronics or whatever. like things that take away from our actual natural being and it really brings us in touch with real life and trauma can do that trauma is real life so it's raw and it digs up raw emotion creates raw emotion and maybe that's something they're interested in or then then you start talking about that there's the whole spiritual warfare thing i'm not going to act like i know much about it makes sense but that it's just like at face value i don't know too much But it makes sense because if there's something that's attracted to negativity in the spiritual warfare sense, then that would kind of fit the bill for that.

But yeah, I mean, I'm kind of glad to hear that because I was wondering if I was kind of seeing something that wasn't there. No, I think you're closer than you realize when it comes to that. Yeah, yeah, there's definitely something there. It would be interesting to see what other people think in response to that, too. Yeah. I will say in the past six or seven years, I guess to simplify it, it's been more of a healing time for me to where I'm kind of getting away from that negativity, that pain, that trauma, et cetera. and the sleep paralysis stuff has faded. Like, I think it's happened twice in the past seven years,

whereas prior to that, it was at least two or three times a year. So that would kind of, you know, stay in connection or however you want to say it, with that theory. So makes sense to me. You want to move on to the next one? Yeah, sure. All right. So it's hard to put a certain date on it.

Probably mid to late odds, like 2000, between 2006, 2010. Can't really remember exactly. I was living in the same area for about 14 years, so they all kind of run together. I was at an apartment complex where, like I said, I've been living for a while. And here's the crazy part is the location of it. If you go on to, I guess, Google Maps or Google Earth or whatever you want to do, and you look at this place, it is not wooded at all. It's not rural, not remote.

It's on the outskirts. It's like right off of I-95 pretty much, like maybe a mile from 95. It's Delaware butted right up against the PA border. literally in that neighborhood, there's a, like, five-foot stone pillar. And on one side, there's a D for Delaware, the other side piece of Pennsylvania. I think it was dated 1888. That's pretty cool. But so it's, like, literally on the border of Delaware and Pennsylvania.

So, yeah, there's, like, a small patch of woods in there. I wouldn't say it's probably, you know. maybe close to three quarters the size of the football field. And it sits in between townhomes and apartments. I don't want to give you the name of the apartment complex. Only what makes you comfortable. So it is up to you. It doesn't bother me.

But if anybody did want to look it up to see exactly where it was, That's the only reason I'd say it. So you can get an idea of how not, like, wooded this place is. Places right off Carpenter Station Road. I guess I'll just kind of leave it at that. But it's a very, very small patch of woods with a little creek that sits inside of an apartment complex. With a lot of people that live in it. It's a very populated area.

It's not as populated as the city of Wilmington, but we are on the outskirts of it. And lots of people here in Delaware because all the business is junk. But yeah, so I was walking from one court that was kind of up higher, like on a hill. So I was walking down the hill from that court, cut into the other one. And when you cut through this other court to get down to the court that I lived in, you end up walking on the side of one of the buildings. So on my left is a brick wall that's the end of the apartment. building and on my right is that patch of woods and it's uh it was nighttime i'm not sure how late

um the spotlight was on so probably after eight or nine i guess um and i heard like a kind of like a click or a tick maybe i like just kind of a like not not something stepping on a branch not that kind of noise, but kind of like, uh, like that. And I looked over to my right and probably about, I'm not good at distances here, but I'll take a while a shot, about 50 yards into the woods, um, leaning out from behind a tree. And I can see one hand on the tree and like it's, it's waist up, leaning out from behind, staring at. me is this the best that can describe it is a definitely bipedal like standing up um you know

human looking but it's it's made up of like snow or static like when the cable's out i don't know if that happens anymore so i'm kind of showing my age there i guess um but yeah it was all made up with like the snow static and it kind of gave off not a real intense glow that lit up around it but you could tell that it was like light so to speak like kind of bright i guess um and i couldn't tell because of how it was made up i couldn't tell if it had horns or pointy ears or what but it was just staring at me um and again i didn't feel fear or like to run or terror or anything like that but I was definitely once again freaked out and I just kind of you know a lot of people say like oh I do this or I did this but

all I did was put my head down and keep walking like just get away from it I don't know what it is keep walking and and that's something again that kind of got blocked out and it's not that wasn't a traumatic thing. It was just watching me. But what was it? And what was it doing there? That's what I want to know. To kind of add to

kind of try to describe it. I'm Lord of the Rings fan. I don't know if you are, but have you ever watched any of those movies? Oh yeah. No, I love Lord of the Rings stuff, so I'm going to get whatever you're saying. Okay. Do you

know when I can't remember if there's in Lord of the Rings of the Hobbit. I think it was in the Hobbit when Gandalf goes to that fortress somewhere, and they call him the sorcerer or the necromancer. I can't remember. It's Sauron, but he, like, comes out as, like, a black cloud almost. But it's in the shape of a human. Do you know what I'm talking about?

Yes. Okay. So it looked kind of like that, like from the waist up, but into now to the Lord of the Rings, you know how the Nine, the Nasgul, when, I sound like a real dork here, I guess, when Frodo puts the ring on and he sees them and they're kind of like white and cloudy. Oh, yeah, I was like, I was guessing that's where we were going was the Nasgol. Yeah, no, I totally get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

But the shape was that of the way that they kind of made Sauron's body look, I guess, or the necromancer or whatever he's called in The Hobbit. So it kind of looked like that from the waist up, but it was made up of like that white kind of cloudiness that the Nazca were but static. I know I'm like all over the place here, but yeah, that's kind of the best that I can describe that. And again, like, that's creepy in itself. But if you were like out in the woods or something, this is going to sound weird. But it might be, it might make more sense because we're out away from people out in the middle of nowhere.

So we might see some weird stuff out here. But this was right in the middle of a neighborhood, a busy neighborhood and a busy area. What's it doing there? so uh but yeah like so i've always wondered like you know you got the connection of the three things by my bed with the sleep

paralysis the three things at the back door then you kind of got a little bit of the connection of like kind of the blurry static thing with the thing in the woods and then like the blurriness and the gray sort of of the three things by my bed so i always like obsess over things and try to figure out the connections what's what are these all the same same things. Are they all different? What's going on? What are they? So that would pretty much be the bulk of any happenings with me over time. I can't say there was anything else that really stood out. I'll throw this out there just because, to me, it doesn't seem like much,

but I think I was 15, roughly. I was living in Athens, Ohio at the time. and I was with, my buddy's dad was dropping me off, taking me home, and we were going from Albany to Athens, and we're driving down this back road, evening, not dark, but getting there. We drive by, and on the side of the road, walking down the road, is this really big, like, not bulky, it was pretty skinny, but it was huge, like, to me, it was. To me, it was, At that age, it was huge. It was a wolf. It looked like a wolf, like a black wolf with kind of greenish yellow eyes.

They weren't glowing or anything. And how I was able to see that in passing is like a testament to how noticeable they were. And to me, I was just like, wow, I saw this big wolf walking down the side of the road. But then you get older and you start hearing these other things. And it's like, wait a minute, what was that? and you look into it and there really are no wolves in southeastern Ohio. So that happened. So, man, Kevin, when you take your whole story and look at the whole thing,

you've been able to see some really unique stuff from a very early age, and it's just kind of followed you the whole way, which is really interesting to think about. that's what it's always felt like but I think again in today's day and age or maybe just in general we kind of get chided um kind of teased or kind of scoffed at if we start thinking that there's some fantastical thing going on well why couldn't there be but again that goes to how you know how cultures are these days or lack thereof um but yeah that's what it's always kind of felt like like that there's something to it

because it's been happening for a long time and I'm probably leaving stuff out I'm probably forgetting a lot but just how weird and like I guess the timing of things so to speak like these things

happen when no one else is looking and you do at times wonder like, is there something wrong with me? Like, am I seeing stuff or am I just, you know, or things like, and then, you know, I grew up in a family that was predominantly Christian, church going, not like a hard line or anything,

but loyal or however you want to, faithful, I guess you would say. So even to even mention some of this stuff, probably get some kind of discipline for it or whatever. Oh, you're not a lot of listen to Metallica anymore. Stuff like that. I get it. I get it. What denomination were you guys?

Well, I wasn't. They were when I was forced to go. But it was just a church of God. I'm not really sure if that falls under any specific. like Baptist or Methodist or anything like that. Honestly, I couldn't tell you the difference between any of them. But I'm not a disbeliever. I absolutely believe that there is a higher power.

However you want to put, I absolutely believe that there is a lot more to not just our existence, but creation and existence altogether, beyond just our physical flesh and blood, work to survive thing. And it's sad that we've gotten so far away from that and that we don't pay attention to it and that people are made fun of or outcast because they talk about

these kinds of things that they experience. Like, it's upsetting. But again, that's something that I've gotten used to over the years with just people in general, which might be part of the reason to stay away from most of them. Did you have like a grandma? or grandpa that was really into things that like maybe your parents wouldn't really be like, yeah,

don't talk to her or anything like that from a relative or you just seem to be an outlier? To the best of my knowledge, I'm an outlier. But, and unfortunately, anyone that I could have talked to about. it is gone. So there really isn't any way to find out. And anytime I've, and my dad, he worked for the state of West Virginia as an environmental inspector. So he's out all over the place in West Virginia in the woods. And I asked him, but he said he's never seen anything. But he also followed up with, I wasn't looking. Okay. Okay. So that, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So how did he learn not to look?

Like, I wonder if something happened where he's like, okay, I'm just not going to look from here on out, you know, I don't know. Right. And he's, I don't want to like speculate or push any, like, ideas here. But he's pretty dismissive about the conversation. And he's actually, he said he's been through the Bermude of Triangle a few times and he said he didn't notice anything there. But it's hard to say.

We don't have the closest relationship. My parents separated around us too. This is Matt Rogers from Los Cultureistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang.

By the time I hit my 50s, I'd learned a few things, like how family is precious. Work can always wait. And 99% of people over 50 already have the virus that causes shingles. Not everyone at risk will develop it, but I did. The painful, blistering rash disrupted my life for weeks. Don't learn about your shingles risk the hard way. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist today, sponsored by GSK. So didn't really get a lot of time to do that.

He's still alive, so I try. And that's kind of what he said. He's like, I've never seen anything, but I really wasn't trying to look for it. So, okay. Which is crazy because I hear about things in West Virginia in parts that I know for a fact that he's either lived or been in and it just makes you wonder like well maybe you weren't even thinking about looking or maybe you were told not to pay attention or whatever yeah but and on that like and these are things like I don't even mention but uh

there are numerous times when I was a kid like out playing in the woods because I did that a lot in West Virginia, I mean, there's not much else to do, so you kind of go do whatever. And I'd go walk around in the hills and the woods and walk by myself or with friends in different areas. One area was by the warwood dump, it's called, I guess, where the trash goes. And I can think of several occasions there and up in the hills that we got shouted at or chased. and or we heard like something running through and you just assume oh well that's we're getting yelled at for being on somebody near somebody's property or they're chasing this out of here it's one of the older kids messing with us

or it's a deer or this or that and you don't think about it that that but you don't even connect it but then as the years go by and I start like getting into this stuff and realizing it for what it is I really start to wonder, like, what was that? Was that something? Or was that just what I thought it was? Like just a deer or somebody messing with us? We never saw anybody, but I can think of several times

that we got chased out of places in the hall of that. But, again, I'd have to experience it and see, like, oh, that was a Sasquatch that just yelled at me. Or we just got chased out of here, paced out whatever by a dog man or saskwash. so I could be like, hey, that happened before, but without that experience and that knowledge and seeing it, I can't really connect the two. But I absolutely wondered, were these things, like, was this related to something,

some little thing that happened when I was a kid that I just thought was kind of funny at the time? Oh, we almost got in trouble. We got out of there. You know what I mean? Like, it could be anything. It could go either way. So I don't really want to lean hard into it and be like,

hey, I got chased out by a Sasquatch because that's the kind of stuff that gives the community a bad name. I'm not really trying to do that. I try to be as honest and realistic about things as possible. Absolutely, yeah.

Because why not? Like, what would, what do I have or anybody? What do any of us? That's the big question is, what do any of us have to gain from coming out and saying, this stuff. Attention? Why? Like, that seems kind of ridiculous to me, but I'm kind of a goof,

so maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, I mean, I mean, most people do not have anything to gain. And, I mean, you don't have a book coming out from what I know, right? So, no, not there on the world. Right, exactly, exactly. So, yeah, I'm right there along, along, with you. Now, I do have a few questions about your Delaware siting. It's just some interesting things I noticed. So you had like two very interesting, just kind of ways to describe it. One is the, it looks snowy or staticy. And I was like, man, I've heard, I've heard that somewhere before. And I was thinking, like, have I heard this? I have heard this description? I have heard this description. I think it was a gentleman down in South Carolina who was on the show. But it's a thing where it is so, so rare to hear something like that. And the other interesting thing you said, I kind of wanted to verify it too, is so you could almost see that it had horns or pointed ears.

Yeah. Like, because, like, you could make out its head. It was skinny, so to speak, I mean, for what I could tell. But because of its makeup, being the static, whatever, all I could see is there were like two raised things on its head that could either be horns or pointy ears. And that's all, and this isn't something that I forget at all what it looks like. It's kind of stuck in my head. So if I could draw, if I could draw, I could easily draw it for you.

I can't draw at all. But yeah, I can't, like again, I can't decide one or the other because I couldn't really see the makeup of it. But all I could tell is that on the left and the right side of its heads, like up top, it had, you know, raised something. So the weird thing about that is the one time that I've had a witness say anything close to this. It was a gentleman. It was a Pennsylvania episode. And he was talking about the bigfoot creatures that were around the house where he was staying in. And he said that they had horns as well.

the weird thing is that this happened over by not quite to Philadelphia kind of on the outskirts and I believe it was area called Drexel Hill which is less than 20 miles away from Wilmington and yeah I know that kind of thing makes you wonder dude you know it really does uh I'm not sure of what I'm kind of more flabbergasted word there about um the fact that somebody else has seen something like this because again I've watched a lot of this stuff you can ask the wife she gets a little irritated with it because it's all I watch um um and I think I think I've heard I probably thousands or hundreds to maybe a thousand episodes or content that I've listened to and watched I think I've heard one or two that came close to it and so that that's kind of

It's kind of gratifying in a way, I guess, or I guess something like that. But it's also kind of like, wow, okay, I'm not alone. That's good. That's a start. That's why I'm here. But then not just to know that somebody else saw something like that, but it was within, let's see, Drexel Hill, to where I'm at. Like, I'm not in Wilmington.

Wilmington's about five to ten miles, I guess, southwest of me. Drexel Hill is probably 10 to 15. I'm not exactly sure of you. It gets kind of confusing to all the back roads and such because I don't like 95. But it's not far. So to know that somebody saw something very similar or the same thing that I did within a, let's just to be safe we'll give it a 50 mile radius which is a lot more as being very generous

that's that's something man that actually in a weird way makes me feel good like excited like oh cool we're getting closer and that's that's exactly why I wanted to do this is in hopes that well in this case you have that information but maybe somebody else will hear it and add to it. That's, for lack of better term, that's awesome. Like, that kind of makes my day. Like,

I feel like, I'm sorry, man, but there's like, I'm feeling like a little bit of a sense of relief here. Like, cool, I'm not the only one. That's interesting. I did not know that. You know, it really makes you think, and I, man, I got so much flack for putting that up. episode out. But again, what I do is I provide a platform for people to share what they've experienced. And when you do that and you don't, you know, I'm going to take this, but, but not this type deal. Like you just let the people talk. You find patterns. And this is a potential example of finding a pattern in area. And who knows where it might lead. But, So you're not having sleep paralysis anymore, right, Kevin?

No, I don't think. I think it's been like two or three years since the last time I've had it. And before that, maybe about a year prior to that one. And then like I said, within like the past, I don't know, five to six, I think six years. Well, since my daughter's seven. So since she's been born, I think I've only had it like two or three times. That's not true. I've had it about five times, but the first three were within the first year of her being born.

So within the past six years, I've had it about twice. Yeah, so, and that's, yeah, it just hasn't been happening as much anymore. And again, I don't know. I had no clue. But with the information that I have, what I can kind of derive from that is that, the common, thing there is that I've been doing better mentally and emotionally kind of separating myself from the negativity and therapy, you know? It's a wonderful thing.

It is. And honestly, that's what this has turned into because I'll be honest with you, man, I can't thank you enough. I know it sounds silly, maybe because it wasn't like an intense, life-threatening encounter. but just hearing you say again not only that somebody else saw this but it was very close to here i almost teared up a little bit the relief that came from that like the who like okay cool that's good but yeah i'm pretty thankful for that man like the therapeutic aspect of what you're doing and again how you mentioned how you're doing it you're not you're not singling

out you're not pushing anyone to the side because it doesn't need a certain narrative or certain you know aspect of the things you want to talk about you're just letting people talk about what they've seen or what's happened to them and you're right man like it's it's the long game like you know a lot of people want to go for the short term and just get like the the big shows and the big episodes with the big encounters and the big audience well that does off. That's not lasting. There's no staying power in that. But when you have something as powerful as the truth and it's developed in the patterns, especially over time, that is where, that's the real deal, as they would say. Like, that's where you really sink your teeth into something and start

putting stuff together and patience. I mean, you can't put a price on patience. So, thank you for what you're doing, man. I really appreciate this. I always have. Everybody I mentioned who I watch and listen to, I always have appreciated it. But for you specifically solely based off of what you said about somebody else seeing it close by here, I got to thank you for that because that makes me feel a sense of relief. That's great to hear, Kevin. And thank you so much. I mean, that's probably the best way anyone has ever. or conveyed what you just conveyed. And just, it helps me a lot as well.

But man, it has been just such a, such a great conversation with you. And it sounds like you have, you know, things under control now. But if you ever, you know, if things do ever happen in the future, feel free to reach out at a later time. but yeah what what a what a story that you have going through the years and uh i'm glad you're in the place that you are now sounds like you have a good handle on things i appreciate that man thank you very much um and yeah actually uh you know we don't do much but we try to take our

daughter camping when we can so who knows anything else comes in my way i will absolutely let you know brother. I just wanted to say thank you.
