Bigfoot Society - Northeast Ohio Bigfoot Sighting Flap: SPECIAL REPORT
Episode Date: March 10, 2026Join Jeremiah Byron of the Bigfoot Society Podcast for a special urgent report regarding a rapid series of Sasquatch sightings in Northeast Ohio. Since March 6, 2026, a "flap" of activity has emerged,... moving from Mantua Center eastward through Garrettsville, Windham, and Newton Township.In this episode, we break down six primary sighting reports, including:The Researcher's Encounter: A nine-foot brown male Sasquatch spotted in broad daylight by an MTCR researcher.The Headwaters Trail Incident: A harrowing account from Garrettsville where witnesses observed an 8-to-10-foot figure with a "stilts-like" gait and a powerful musky odor.The Skeptic's Story: A first-hand report from a homeowner in Windham who witnessed a six-foot figure with a massive stride running across her neighbor’s property.The Newton Township Shadow: A very recent 4:00 AM encounter involving a terrified German Shepherd and a large, black shadowy figure estimated at 10 feet tall.Jeremiah discusses the specific patterns of these sightings, which appear to be moving east-southeast at a rate of approximately three miles per day. We also touch on the "Bigfoot Society" partnership with local researchers to verify these claims on the ground within hours of their occurrence.Important Note for Researchers: We urge everyone to remain cautious and avoid "overlapping evidence reports" by refraining from excessive call-blasting or tree-knocking in the active areas.Have you seen something? If you have had a sighting in Portage County, Trumbull County, or the surrounding areas, please contact bigfootsociety@gmail.com.

Special report as it happens about the current Northeast Ohio Bigfoot siting flap.
My name is Jeremiah Byron from the Bigfoot Society podcast.
So this all happened starting March 6th, 2026th.
I found a citing report on the Bigfoot mapping project and started making videos about it on the
Bigfoot Society, social media.
There's been six Bigfoot citing reports, and it's getting to the point where there's
a lot coming in, and a lot of it could be troll accounts, but I'm starting to talk to people
on the phone to be able to verify what's going on.
It started in an area called Manaw, Ohio, and it started to move west to east.
we'll talk about this more as we go through it.
So starts on Manawas Center Friday, March 6th, around 1223 p.m.
A researcher from an organization called MTCR spotted a nine-foot brown male,
Sasquatch and Broad Daylight.
Subject was stationary, then retreated at high speed.
the report on the Bigfoot mapping project was
I run MTCR, a cryptic research organization.
I saw Bigfoot and was looking for somewhere to report it
besides my own organization.
I was hiking when I saw a large bipedal cryptidid.
Bigfoot standing about 120 yards for me
and it started moving away.
It knew I was there and it left fast and I left just as fast.
So that is the specific report
that was on the Bigfoot mapping project there.
We then go to the same town area,
Nawa Center Saturday, March 7th, 10.52 p.m.
Citing was by an individual who wants to be credited as Dylan Obney.
It was an eight-foot brown figure.
Heard heavy footsteps, deep vibrating grunt, and the forest got quiet.
Dylan contacted me through TikTok on the Bigfoot Society account.
Here's his report.
I was walking along a trail near.
the edge of the woods when I started hearing heavy footsteps deeper in the trees.
At first I thought it was a deer or maybe someone else hiking,
but the steps were slow, spaced out and much heavier than anything I've ever heard out there before.
A few minutes later, I noticed movement about 40 to 50 yards away.
Something tall stepped between two trees.
It looked easily seven to eight feet tall,
covered in dark brown hair with long arms that hung low by its sides.
It moved upright and slowly turned its head toward the trail.
Like it knew, I was there.
The craziest part was the sound at me.
made a deep grunt that echoed through the woods before it stepped back behind the trees and disappeared
after that everything became completely quiet.
When I walked over to where I'd been standing, I found several large footprints pressed into
the muddy ground that looked way bigger than any normal boot.
I'm not saying 100% what it was, but whatever I saw definitely wasn't a person, definitely
wasn't a deer.
If anyone else in the Manawah area saw or heard anything strange yesterday evening, I'd be
curious to know, please credit.
Dylan Obney if this story is shared or reposted anywhere, this happened March 7th, 1052 p.m.
Okay, so there's Dylan.
So we've gone through March 6th, March 7th.
Now we move east to Garretsville.
We start to get reports from March 9th.
And this is where things get really intense.
And I start.
So the first one is 1020.
AM. And this is from a, it was a report on the Bigfoot mapping project. I don't believe that report is there currently.
But I was able to get the information here. So, it did pretty quick when I saw an eight foot
Sasquatch looking creature and I got scared and ran away. He had a lot of fur.
reported as having thick black fur.
I did get another report.
This happened at 1147 March 9th.
And this is a individual I was actually able to talk to on the phone.
He's going to remain.
It was two individuals that had the citing.
Anonymous individual, an individual named Jacob Taylor.
I talked to the anonymous individual.
so I'm going to go ahead and read what Anonymous had provided me.
My name is, we're going to keep it anonymous.
I want to report something unusual that my friend and I experienced while hiking near Garrettsville, Ohio, earlier today.
At approximately 1147 a.m., my friend Jacob Tyler, who said he would like to go on record and I were hiking along a wooded trail.
when we noticed movement coming from the tree line ahead of us about 25 to 30 feet away we observed what appeared to be a very large upright figure
stepping partially out from the trees the figure was completely covered in black hair and looked to be roughly 8 to 10 feet tall it stood there for several seconds while we watched
the shoulders appeared extremely broad and the arms were unusually long hanging well below where a normal persons would
when it took a step forward we could clearly see that was walking upright on two legs the ground shook slightly as it moved and we all
also notice a strong musky smell in the air.
After a few seconds, the creature seemed to notice it.
It turned its head toward us, let out a deep front-like noise, and then quickly stepped
back into the trees.
We could hear heavy footsteps moving away through the brush for several moments afterwards.
We were both pretty shaken up and didn't approach the area any closer.
We didn't manage to get a photo because it happened so quick.
Jacob Taylor said he was willing to be listed as a witness.
I would like to be anonymous if you're documenting sightings, if you needed any additional
details about the location or what we saw feel free to reach out. I called, so I then called
the anonymous witness as I had his contact info. We talked over the phone. This witness,
to me, seemed to be legitimate and was extremely shook up, but what had just happened
an hour or so earlier. Some additional details that the anonymous witness was able to provide
to me was he said that it was only able to turn its neck by turning his shoulders and not just
its neck, which I found extremely interesting. And the anonymous witness said it had a weird way of
moving like it was on stilts. Like you see an individual that's on stilts and it's moving around
a certain way. He said that the encounter lasted for about 10 to 15 seconds duration and it
happened specifically while hiking Headwaters Trail north of Hanky Road in Garrettsville.
okay so that takes us to midday march 9th um i then got a contact from another individual
same day about an hour after it happened and this happened in windham ohio 6 p.m. Ohio time
and a few things to go over here so there was
a older individual
female that was
in her house
looking out the living room window
saw something run out of the woods
on the neighbor's property
six feet tall
tall figure all brown
stride was very long
it happened about six seconds worth
and it was about 100 feet away
this individual got a side view of the big foot
running the whole time
I was able to actually talk
to this individual
and her daughter
and a very,
very interesting
conversation over the phone.
In fact,
the witness themselves
was a skeptic
and told me that
her quote was,
I know what I saw,
but I don't know
what I saw,
which I thought was fascinating.
There are going to be
listeners that are like,
you're in Iowa.
This is all happening
in Northeast Ohio.
Are you?
you having people check up on this for you. And yes, I am partnering with a local researcher.
I'm providing phone numbers if the witness is okay with it. This researcher is being able to go
to places to check it out hours after it happened. We are not going to say the name of the
researcher because, to be quite honest, I don't want the researcher being bugged. We need this
researcher to be able to just do what the researcher needs to do. This researcher has help.
Multiple individuals are helping as well. And you'll be hearing from this researcher on the show
in the future. But to be quite honest, there hasn't been a group of citing in an area like this
since I would say the 1970s. Let's continue.
That being said, since I'm getting a lot of the information, I'm trying to take this as serious as I can to make sure that stuff is documented and the information gets out there.
Let's continue.
Today is, time of recording is March 10th, 2026.
I woke up to a few emails, as you can imagine.
And again, I'm talking to people over the phone to confirm things, as a lot of them have turned out to be not legitimate.
Now, the one gentleman I was able to talk to today, interesting gentleman, as in he is extremely shook up.
He's very, very emotional about what he happened to him in the town of Newton Township.
So this individual reached out to me through email.
He had taken his dog out at 4 a.m. this morning, German Shepherd.
When the door was open, the German Shepherd freaked out and it just lunged towards the woodline.
the witness reports that there was something a large black shadow we figure out in the woodline
something was crashing around he does have bear on his property so he knows the size of bear
and he says what he saw he would estimate the size of it to be much much taller probably he
would estimate about eight to ten feet tall let me
read through my notes for this one.
He finally was able to get his dog inside and the dog was shaking, which is not unlike the dog does not do that.
It's a German shepherd.
And so, you know, if you know German shepherds, they're normally are not like that.
So the individual was so shook up.
He wasn't even able to go to the back of his yard to the wood line to see if there are tracks.
or anything to check it out.
He's like, I'm not going out there.
So I was like, hey, maybe when it's later today, after, you know, work or your errands, you can go out there.
If you go out there, please contact and let us know if there were any footprint.
I'm getting the researcher I'm working with connected to this individual.
But, you guys, this is really wild.
I've been making maps of how this seems to be playing out.
And if you look at the maps that I'm making,
you can find these on the Bigfoot Society social media.
So it starts in Manawas Center, goes east to Garrettsville,
starts to go southeast a little bit to Wyndham,
and then southeast again to Newton Township area.
I have the sightings on the map.
The siting map I have at Bigfoot Society Podcast.com.
Some of these are on the Bigfoot mapping project, but not all of them.
Some of them are ones I've gotten specifically.
So the sightings are starting to move roughly east, southeast at approximately three miles a day.
So if you're in that area, please be aware.
If you do have a sighting, if you see something where you experience something, you experience,
something or you know someone that has had a sighting, please have them reach out or reach
out to me at bigfoot society at gmail.com.
If you are a bigfoot researcher and I've started to see things where people are like,
we're headed out, please don't start stepping on each other's toes.
The last thing we need is we need a ton of people.
we don't need a ton of people out in the woods making noises, call blasting, hitting trees,
because potentially what that could do is you're going to have all these groups where they're going to be out in the woods
and they're going to hear each other doing these things and then there's going to be all these false reports.
So what I might recommend is observing certain areas, looking at maps, seeing the wooded areas around,
and getting out there and observing
and see if there can be any evidence
or you hear any vocalizations.
You guys know what to do,
but just be aware
there's going to be potentially people
coming into this area
and we don't want
overlapping evidence reports.
That's not a good thing.
I will try to keep you guys up to date
with what comes next for this.
The best way to keep up to date
is to
follow the Bigfoot Society
social media accounts
really the best way is
if you go over to Facebook
the Facebook page for Bigfoot Society
I'm doing maps and
I'm doing updates
and I'm doing videos about
all the reports
that I'm able to actually follow up with
and
get information
and again trying to take this very seriously
So if you do again at the end here, if you have had a Bigfoot siting in the Portage County, Trumbull County, or surrounding counties of Ohio in the last few days or today, please reach out to me as soon as you can, Bigfoot Society at Gmail.com and trying to get back in touch with people as quickly as I can.
Thank you again, guys, for listening.
