of talking to Greg from the Cryptozoology YouTube channel today, and that's with a K at the beginning. We'll have that linked in the show notes for sure. Greg is a documentary filmmaker from Pennsylvania. He's got a degree in electronic media and film. He's also a member of the Screen Actors Guild, which is pretty cool. And he's been documenting his Bigfoot-related experiences all around the Mid-Atlantic region. I've been wanting to have Greg on the show for a while. we're finally able to get him on the show today. So how are you doing today, Greg? Oh, great, Jeremiah.

Thank you so much for having me on. Absolutely. Yeah, I guess I'll just start in West Virginia. That's kind of where actually I had my first experience a number of years ago. And this is actually before I was really even into cryptozoology or anything of the like. And I was actually visiting a friend out in, like I said, like the eastern panhandle of West Virginia. And so I was coming back and this deer cut in front of me. And it was really bizarre just because like I've driven, you know,

thousands of miles of back roads and never really had too many, you know, deer or, you know, wild turkey kind of cut out in front of me. And, you know, the, so the deer crosses the road. And then there's a predator following it. And it had, it looked like it was like a dog. like, just like, almost looked like a wild dog. And so I really kind of, you know, looked into this subject. And it's, I know it's kind of crazy, but the, there's actually been hyena sightings,

like in North America. And I, I kind of, I looked into this. And there's actually like hyena sightings in like West Virginia a lot. And because it didn't really fit into that category of, being a dog or like a coyote or a wolf. And it just had these like large like large haunches. And it looked at me and then just continued to pursue the deer. And I had always had like, you know, some interest in, you know, the macabre, you know,

with like Arthur C. Clark's and serious world and so on, you know, watching that back in the 90s when I was a kid. And to really to have something like so weird like dash out in front of me. it really kind of changed my whole like paradigm for you know what what's possible and what can exist and so I did like a little bit of research and I'm not sure if you're familiar with it's called the shunka warackan yes yes yeah yeah that's in like I believe Montana like out towards you know more like the Pacific Northwest and um you know it was known as like a predator that uh carried carried carried off dogs. Like that was kind of the nickname for it. And having, having seen this thing really

kind of, you know, blew my mind like that, like, what, you know, what is, what is happening out here? This was like maybe, like, 2008. And so I really didn't have like that developed of an interest in cryptozoology. And it wasn't really to like almost like the 2010s with like, you know, finding bigfoot and like things like that and kind of Sasquatch you know chronicles like you know kind of blowing up I was like oh okay this this subject's like kind of kind of interesting and so I had my I actually had some experiences in in Maryland actually I used to live in Maryland for a move back PA and so there's the in Maryland there's the the goat man that's the that's kind of like you know I live like near like you know kind of southern near Annapolis Maryland and that's like a really really famous you know area for you know sightings of the goat man and you know really I looked into the whole area and actually the whole that governor's bridge road right now is actually shut down and it's been like repeatedly shut down and you know first time I believe it was like the bridge actually just got washed out but the second time like a

like a tractor trailer, like was trying to get through there. Like they rebuilt the bridge and everything. And so, and it's still been shut down. So, like, all along there for like the past 10 or 15 years, you know, where, where a goat man is like, report these, like, the sightings, it's all been shut down for like almost like two decades, which is like super crazy. And so I have a friend. And so she actually kind of like lives over in that area.

and she so we were like camp kind of camping outside that type of thing and like it was it just it's it started to rain right like it so it was like a normal normal night and then like out out of nowhere this like large like sigh like came came from the woods like you know it just it was like someone like a giant like almost like a like a like a like a bear or something But there's absolutely, there's no bears that are in, like, in this area in, like, Southern Maryland. Like, they've been, like, extirpated for, like, decades. And so, so, like, you know, I talked around to our neighbors. And, you know, the neighbors said that, you know, they saw, like, red eyes at eight, eight feet in the area. And, like, also that a neighbor said that, you know, they,

there was a goose that actually got caught in her fence. And she heard these large footsteps like, like bound across the area. And it grabbed that, that goose that was like stuck in the fence. And another person, she reported that there was, you know,

she felt like she was being like, there was, there's like fishing spots down there. And she felt like there was, she was being followed. And she had this really creepy feeling. Like it was a real, real, real bizarre experience for her. And so that, in terms of that area, you know, I feel like a lot of people are kind of like mislabeling, you know, goat man.

And I feel like, you know, like that's, that's like a common occurrence, you know, in terms of like the same, you know, the Jersey devil and things like that. Like people just put like a different name, like a local colloquialism for, you know, for, for, you know, for. Bigfoot. And I think in Maryland, like, you know, Bigfoot can really just be called like Goat Man. So I guess to keep on moving on, you know, with my experiences in Maryland, there's a really amazing park. It's called Calvert Cliffs. And that's, that's more, that's more in Southern Maryland also. And my daughter and I were actually, we would visit there. This, you know, This is still kind of like before, you know, I was really doing anything with like, you know, crypto zoology or anything like.

And, you know, we were walking, like, through the park. And it was, like, a weird time because, like, most people had already gone back to school. So it was like, it was like early, like late fall and, or I'm sorry, early fall, like late summer. And there was like a porta potty there. And I, it was a long walk. Like, Calvert Cliffs is known for. It's like shark teeth, it's fossils. So it's like a real, like really unique area.

And so we're walking back. And, you know, I had to stop and use there was like a porta potty there. And, you know, they have that usually like porta potty's had those like spring wooded like doors. And as soon as like that happened, we had a response like across this bog of like two knocks, like two wood knocks and it was like this it was just like the strangest strangest thing that's like ever happened to us and like even even my daughter looked at me and was like you know what is that right it was just like really you know kind of like bizarre bizarre experience and um i guess also with maryland also like

there's also i guess in terms of cryptozoology in general um there's plenty of chessey sightings like in the area so chessie is basically kind of like you know the lockness monster of the Chesapeake Bay. And what I've discovered, like, yeah, there's been local sightings at, like, Patapsco, I'm sorry, Fort Smallwood State Park, and that's on the Patapsco, that's on the Patapsco River. And then also near, like, more near the Magothy River, which is, like, kind of more southernly, Maryland. And, you know, there's been reported, like, report sightings, not necessarily, like, on the

eastern or I'm sorry the western shore of Maryland but um like further south like more towards like the Potomac and of like baby like kind of like estuary baby Chessie sightings which is really like really wild just thinking that like you know these things are you know developing like in you know like an estuary somewhere of you know of America you know of the United States so that's that's just basically my time in Maryland and what I saw. And there's also been report sightings like near Antietam and I've been thinking about going out there just to kind of explore, you know, what's kind of the situation out there. I guess moving on to like Pennsylvania, I mean, I feel like PA, PA is just this large,

you know, crazy tract of land with, it basically has like four, four million acres of like public land that are really, you know, it gets really wild out there. And it's sometimes when you're in like, you know, Sprow State Forest and Susquehannock State Forest, like you're, it's not like you're standing on a mountain by yourself.

You're standing basically like on a mountain ridge by yourself. And so, so basically, you know, having originally been from PA growing up here, that area kind of like, north of like state college PA was always just kind of like a mystery to me. And in addition to, you know, basically there's 2.2 million acres of state forests in PA. There's about one and a half

million acres of game lands and there's 300,000 acres of state parks and then, you know, half a million acres for the Allegheny National Forest. So you're talking about almost like four million, four million acres that, you know, people can really get lost in. And it's almost basically, you know, my research area is almost basically the size of Connecticut with the population of like, you know, maybe 50,000 people or something. I mean, really nobody lives like in these areas. It's probably even less than that. And so basically with the state game lands in Pennsylvania, I mean,

the hunting season is like so small that. So for three quarters of the year, basically these state game lands are just completely unoccupied. And I've learned that a lot of, I mean, even more recently, there's been sightings out of that area near state college. I believe it's the state game lands like 333. And they, you know, there's been report sightings of a big foot near a fish. estuary. So basically, I guess the past maybe two years or so, really since 2023, that's when, you know, I really kind of got my channel together because I was kind of getting a, I was getting headaches from watching people, you know, on YouTube, use their, use their camera phone to,

to make, you know, like, crypto-su-Zoology videos. And I thought I could kind of just give it a little bit more of a kind of finished product. So I guess really, really, really, where I started was in this little town called Cross Forks PA. So Cross Forks, PA, that's near the Hammersland Wild area, which is like basically the largest area in PA that has no roads. So it's about like 50, 50 square miles of no roads that you can, you know, just really enjoy yourself and kind of, you know, these real backcountry trails that, you know, you're not really interrupted in. And, you know, there's timber rattlesnakes. And also in this area, back in the, I think it was the 1920s, after the last woodland elk was actually shot in PA, they were imported from Colorado. So there was actually a herd of like 1,400 elk in north central PA.

And, you know, so a lot of them go to like these different wild areas that, you know, are not particularly populated. or don't have many visitors to. And so because I'm with the Hoursley Wild area, it was just a good experience in kind of like, you know, learning how to make like a proper narrative. Like, you know, the first couple videos I made, I like, I literally got like lost in the woods and like was still trying to get my bearings. And I feel like now I have a little bit more of a better,

better understanding of, you know, how to, you know, kind of shoot a video, but not get lost. So since I was in Spiral and State Forest, there's, you know, these areas, like I said, they're really, you know, super rural, you know, PA is the only state, you know, PA's number three in terms of public land size. So only behind like Alaska and California.

So, you know, really, when you go out to these areas, It's not even necessarily that you're just kind of worrying about, like, being within, you know, the public state game lands or things like that because there's a lot of, you know, private clubs up there, too, which account for, like, large, large swaths of area. And really, I guess, you know, my most, it's called Ricketts Glen, that's one of my most famous videos. And it's where I kind of started, you know, with my channel. This is Daniel Fischel.

And basically, I went to the visitor center because I was going to camp in the park that night. And, you know, I see this, like, you know, magnet hanging up that says, you know, that there's going to, you know, Bigfoot might actually find you or something at, at Ricketts Glen State State Park. You know, so it's like there's like a PA state government, you know, just, you know, magnet that's that approves that like, you know, big, foot exists, you know? So I asked, I asked the visitor center, you know, lady there. And she said that, like, yeah, there had been a reported Sasquatch nest in Ricketts Glen. And, you know, I basically, it was almost like a four-mile trek through there. And, I mean, I saw, like, kind of like a low, low-lying, like, tree that had, like, kind of, like, a,

I don't know, like, a reinforced, like, lower limb. but nothing I saw that, you know, kind of really said that there was like a nest in the area, but it just really, I just found it really curious that, like, you know, there was like a state-sponsored, like, a magnet that said, you know, you might, you might be, you know, looking for Bigfoot at Ricketts Glen State Park, and that just really blew my mind. And so I've also been to, there's, it's called like World's End State Park, which is

that's also a north central PA and there were there have been sightings in the area but I think the the crazy part about that area is that there's like a it's almost like a plateau to it unfortunately like I haven't gotten a drone yet

which I need to do and I wish at the time I had a drone because like this plateau that's like above you know where you know most most of the people are that really like anything could be hiding up there and it kind of has almost like these like cliff edge edges to it it's basically where like kind of the Susquehanna River

you know kind of bled in through the Allegheny Plateau and yes which is yeah so it's really difficult to climb up these cliffs and I'm definitely next time to go there I'm going to definitely have a drone to like try and get up into these areas and I guess my other video that I thought kind of peaked, you know, the public centrist was I came across these like ice footprints at the like the PA, the PA grand area. And it was it was just so, so odd because it was like late, it was like late December. And, you know, I don't know if a bear would still be like, you know, even up because like these,

these prints just like you could see the toes and like it just even if it was like a black bear double step like I don't know if it if it could be um possible for it to be like as big as it was so it's you know like I said it's in my catalog is a catalog of video if people want to check it out can I can I ask for clarification for something for a minute that happened in Pine Creek Gorge right Yeah, exactly. It's called the Barber Rocks Trail. So it's on the north, like the north end of the, the park there. And so I shot a video there, but I also shot, there's another, there's another park on the, like, more of the south end.

And that was, I had a little bit of like a smell in that area. And this, like I said, this was, like, this was like 2020. you know around christmas time there's there's absolutely nobody like nobody in the park there's called colton point state park that's the that's that's the more southerly uh state park okay and um in in in the pine creek in the pa grand uh canyon area and but the footprint was was really of course i just gotten a new a new camera and has like a building gimbal with it and um to like kind of stabilize the image. And so I was still like learning how to like properly like, you know, film downwards with it because it tries to like stay to like the horizon

with with with with with with with gimbals just to try and like level out to the, but I got most I got most of the image of the footprint. And and there was about like a four it was almost like a four foot span between you know the footprints and they were. 16 inches long and then about like, I think it was about like five or six inches wide. So, and I know like black bears in North Central PA have actually, they've actually shot black bears that are 800 pounds. So like you have to, which is basically the size of grizzly bears. Right. So you have to be, you have to be real careful with like understanding, you know, kind of what you're, what you're seeing.

and I was actually, I was blessed enough to actually communicate with Dr. Jeff Meldrum before he passed about the ice footprint. And, you know, I sent him the images and, you know, he always told me that, you know, air on the side of caution. And unfortunately, like, I didn't really have a, I didn't make a cast of it. Like, I didn't have any, like, I didn't have any, you know, plaster of Paris or, or, I would, was actually trying to get into like possibly having like like a 3d like image scanner for things but I'm still I'm still working on that right now but at least Lisa had my my tape measure with me to like kind of properly um like you know properly you know properly you know measure things out just because you know like on camera like you have to like you have to present some type of like standard you know with like a tape measure to you know to really like you know kind of be like a litmus test. for like what the size of something is you know you can't because the human eye is like so so good at like

you know auto capturing things that like you know people one thing people don't realize with film is that you know and that's why I shoot most of my stuff during the daytime just because I mean if you look at like the Paul Freeman you look at the Patterson Gimlin films like they were all both during the daytime so it's like

I feel like if there's ever going to be like another, like, any footage of this thing, it's going to be during the daytime because, like, I know there's thermals out there, but, like, I feel like having a daytime sighting with, with that, you know, proper resolution to actually, like, see the creature, I think that'll hopefully lend more credence to, like, you know, to it being like a, like a real, real, you know, animal that hopefully gets recognized. So having gone from Lake Licketts Glen, I'm sorry, the PA Grand Canyon,

I've also been to, like I said, North Central PA, which has the Susquehannock State Forest and the Sparral State Forest, which kind of merge into their own national forest up there. And so, basically I would go to like old like hunting lodges just to like speak to um you know the like the locals just see if like if there's any like just just anything you know and just I'd be like oh you know like because you know I was I would kind of stick out like a sore thumb you know

I'm not really like a like a big kind of hunting guy you know and like you know I'm not really wearing camo or anything and you know and I respect hunters I love hunters they're they're They're the only people I see when I'm looking for Bigfoot. And so, you know, I just kind of like, you know, shoot to shoot with them. And they would always tell me, you know, I had a bartender who was telling me these experiences her husband was having. And it's down near like snowshoe PA. So we're approaching like these areas that, you know, on the BFR has been listing. there was the, you know, recently there was the, you know,

Sasquatch that crossed Route 80 there. I think it was a mile marker around like 170. And I actually, I shot a video there at, it's called Bald Eagle State Park. And that area, like, is like super rural. Like there's actually in town near there. There's a local barbecue place that's called like, big foot blazing barbecue.

So like the whole like the whole area has like this like local local culture of like something kind of being in the area. And you know, so her husband was just telling me about how, you know, he had seen something while he was hunting, got freaked out and left. And this and then another time like it was like later at night. And because there's there's so many like Thunderbird sightings like in this north central part of PA, that they had also come across, you know, like a large, it was a large bird, and it was at dusk, and, like, it completely freaked this hunter out. So I really, and I've also read,

like, plenty of books. There's, it's called, like, the Pennsylvania stories and more Pennsylvania stories by, I believe his name is Henry Shoemaker. I mean, this was written in, like, the 1920s or so, but it has a lot of like listed events with you know different events happening you know in in like the sprawl state forest and this and the suscalhack state forest in terms of thunderbirds so i mean there's just like i said it's it's such like a like a wild and untamed area that like uh you know you could you could hide a dinosaur up there and nobody would know and so basically when i was shooting my video for for bigfoot near your snowshoe um i came across like a there was like a this old like abandoned like it was like a railway trail and like this like our like four by four quad club

had like kind of commandeered it but not fully and like the bridge was out like the brick like you know if you go to google maps the google maps like says like it's okay and it's not okay like the bridge is completely like half demolished. And so I'm traveling down, you know, the path on this old abandoned like quad club trail. And, you know, I see these like large like footprints. It's under my video called Sasquatch Col. And I basically came across these like weird like runic like somebody created these like

weird runic tablet things on the side of the road. I was really like, thank God I've like, bear spray when I go out because like it's you know I was in this like it was almost like a like a valley like a little like valley so if like anybody was going to like ambush me like this was like the place to do it and so I'm like you know kind of like walking down this like trail like all by myself and I come across these like weird you know like runic symbol things I saw that just kept on going but like like across the trail you know because it had like lightly snowed were these like, you know, like six, like 16 inch like footprints dashing across the trail.

So like, and like I said, it was like, I think it was early January. So with it with it being like a bear, I don't know like, I don't know if a bear is going to be out in, in early January. And there were deer, there were deer in the area. So it was, you know, it was a very like, you know, humbling. just because, like I said, I was in an area that I was actually using snow shoes because, like, the area, like, had gotten so kind of rough. And it was, like, the only way that I could really hopefully get back to, like, you'd get back back to my car, you know, from, from where this area was. Yeah. And, like I said, that area is called, like, Renovo PA, which is, it's in the dead middle of, like, nowhere. And if you go to, like, it's called, like, Lockhaven. to like Emporium off like root I believe it's 120 there like Renovos like in the center of it and it you know like like when you go to this town it's it's it's just like it's it's like a

it's almost like a like a ghost town it's like really abandoned over the years and um so in addition to like the the big foot sightings and like Thunbergtundberg sightings I also wanted to like I also trying to like classical like extinct species and And so they're, I'm not sure if you're familiar with like, you know, the Penn State, like, football team, the Nittany Lions. Absolutely. Well, they, yeah, they, so they actually get their name from, you know, these like, you know, theoretical, like, mountain lions that existed in that area of PA that potentially, you know, because all these species were all, like, extirpated, you know, the, like I said, the woodland elk, the, the bison there was wooden bison there were passenger pigeon flocks of like three billion three or four billion that used to blot out the the sun like during the daytime and we actually we hunted them all to extinction and because you know people found the meat like the of the passenger pigeon they're to be you know tasty so that's that's one of the reasons that that was basically killed to extinction.

And so, because, you know, the nitty lions kind of are in that area in like Sprow State Forest, I followed this like old, it was called like the Panther Tower, the Panther Trail through there. And basically they used to, there used to be like a lot of fire towers in PA and a lot of them have been actually just like taken down.

And, you know, they had these names from like, you know, maybe, you know, 50, 60, 70 years ago because potentially like, you know, even 100, 100 years ago, there was still mountain lions in PA.

I've learned some things, like the value of the family, the importance of the job, and that the 99% of the people of more of 50 you have the virus that causes the Culebrilla. Although not all the people in risk, it will developeran, I see the

I feel the eruption dolorosa with ampollies duros making that

the tasks more simple are all a real not learn about

the little about the doctor or pharmaceutical patroc

for GSK and I mean even up until recently there was the mountain line

that I think it was like North Dakota to Connecticut so my theory was like

you know did this did this mountain line even did it kind of come through north central PA to get to Connecticut and I didn't see any signs of

mountain lines but I swear whenever I'm looking for like thunderbirds or mountain lines like I always come across like weird weird like big foot stuff like the trail that I had to kind to go through it was it was like all like

all crashed in like there looked like something had you know thrown down, like, and put X's on the trail. So I didn't, like, that was more like kind of the western part of this, this trail. I, I, I just headed east because that's kind of, I was, I was looking for the, the Panther Tower in this. And so, you know, continually, even, even while I'm, like, still looking for, you know, other species, like, like, Bigfoot still kind of, like, kind of sticks his foot in there and like, you know,

there's still weird signs that kind of, you know, can kind of exist here and there. I've also been to, so there used to, I believe it was like an old like nuclear or missile testing range in north central PA and it's called the Kehanna Wild

area. And so if you look at a map of PA, you can even see it on Google Maps, it's there's a perfect circle like in, in central PA of like, I guess the state brought back the land like from this like nuclear facility and it's just so bizarre and so there was like in 1985 there was like a terrible tornado that actually like blew through this area

and it's just it's just so bizarre like just looking on a map and just seeing like a like you know maps are usually just more natural but but seeing like an actual like circle like on you know in the in the PA like you know forest system you're like you're just like what what is going on. And so that area that can't can't a lot area, I've been through there. And, you know, there's some, some trails that are pretty, pretty cool in terms of, you know, being wild. And a lot in that area, that's where there's a lot of, like, elk, like elk viewing

areas. And so while I was shooting one of my videos, you know, I, it was like a terrible windy day. It was snowy out. I was the only person at these elk viewing areas. And they're basically like reclaim land state bought just because they were like they were strip mined. And so they reclaimed the land. And now elk are able to like actually like live, you know, and kind of thrive on this. But during the wintertime, of course, you know, most animals kind of go into the trees and start even eating like, you know, some type of sticks and brushes and that type of thing.

but when I was there there was like like so I shut my door and then like a couple seconds later I heard like a wood knock in the valley in the distance it was just like it just blew my mind like that like you know like I don't even think I don't think I had the camera running at that time and I feel like I've had other experiences like that where like like and I'm conscious of it now but like when I first go to the area like I'm always like I always turn my camera before like I shut my door because I've I've definitely had like some some responses like when whenever I close my door I guess I slam my door kind of hard and they I've I've heard wood knocks definitely in the distance I guess another another

example is that the so also North Central PA it's called the Kettle Creek State Park and that is like you know it's it's a phenomenal it's one of the tributaries to the Hohanna River and you know in addition to like the elk the buffalo and the passenger pigeons before the dams were erected throughout you know throughout the state harbor seals actually used to like to swim like all the way really into like deep north central PA and so they were they were given the nickname the kettle creek monster so I was just I was just kind of filming that video and I just I was going to get some B-roll because I have like a I have like another camera too it's more of like a long distance camera and like you know once again I just like I shut my door I think I was like

filming I was just filming birds there some you know really beautiful ducks that were on the creek there and like I shut my door and then off in the distance I heard like a I heard like a wood knock and like for me the question is like if it's a hunter like it's not an echo because it just it happens usually too too long afterwards and like, you know, why would like a hunter be like firing off a gun like in response to my like door, you know, slamming?

So like that's kind of my, my only explanation for it in that area. So I guess moving on to even more place. There's also the like cinema honing like state park.

I know like, you know a lot of like those of the big foot society guys like they kind of go up into that. into that area and I've been in that area too like actually I actually shot a video that was actually on top of the dam you know and a lot of these like parks it's like they're really like you know like they're really forgotten near like Boston PA there's like an old dam that like blew out so it looks like you know you go there it almost looks like it's like lord of the rings and you're like you're like there's nobody else around you're you have these like giant like earthworks projects

and you're just kind of like you know you can literally literally walk on this dam and just, you know, just really beautiful, you know, clear water and, you know, no pollution in this area. But I guess also, so I guess going back to like the state game lands, like, so state, there was that siting at that fish estuary, which I believe was like state game lands like 33. And that that was like in March of like this past year. And And, you know, I had actually shot like a video like earlier, you know, almost two years ago where there had been, you know, like previous also other Bigfoot crossings off the I-80 corridor. So basically I feel like, like north of like, in PA, like north of like the I-80 corridor, like it can really get like, like it's really wild, right? and like super like super unpopulated and and for me it's like my question is are these creatures

are they do they want like do they want the attention do they want um you know do they want like do they want to be near us so for i i still haven't really figured that out and you know in this area like if you you know near the bald eagle like state park and state gamelans 333 you know you kind go between like, you know, like mountains that are that are forested and then and then like farms in the valleys and then mountains in the forest and then, you know, like farms in the valleys. And so it's like it would be like perfect terrain for an animal to like, you know, kind of hide at night in the woods or hide during the day during the woods and then come down at night to like to steal food, you know, from like a local, you know, farmer. And so there's, there's definitely

like this like it's definitely this like goldilocks zone of like hey there's like potentially like a food source for these creatures and you know they have like a they have like a place to hide um i guess going further south like i've also been to like it's called micheho state park and like that's that's weird because i think it's actually like the northern terminus of like almost the blue ridge mountains so and like it's weird because like outside of it like it's not there's really no, like, there's no mountains. So it's, it's like this little island in the sky. And there's been, like, lots of, I shot one of my first videos there.

And that was like one of, you know, you know, like a really, really special, special spot, you know. I guess in terms of like, you know, more areas in PA, I've also been to like the Delaware, Delaware State Forest. And that's kind of where, like, there's promised land state park out there. There's also, it's called like Egypt Meadows. And like Egypt Meadows is like kind of crazy because it's like you really like I have a Garmin. I have like like GPS like search and rescue insurance just because like when you, when you're going down on these trails like by yourself, like you have to just kind of be prepared for the worst.

And it's not like a like a more like you know, kind of urban park where there's there's going to be more people. some of these some of these like you know really kind of out there like you know state parks like they you know

they they're really like in the middle of like almost nowhere right and like they they're very scarcely populated with other hikers and actually like I actually like it's one of the few times

I've gotten lost on a trail and actually turned back because it was like it was getting near dusk and like I was just like there's no point in like getting lost in the woods at nighttime and you know something like something happening to you um so i think that's that's like a pretty good you know kind of examination of like you know where i've been in pa and um i guess moving on to uh like so i've been to a lot of spots in new jersey as

well uh so basically you know one of my first videos i ever shot was the it's like the the The Jersey Devil, of course, right? And so, like, ocean spray, that's like the cranberry company, they have, like, a lot of abandoned, like, cranberry bogs that are in these areas. And so I was, you know, shooting my video, and I saw this, like, you know, large, extremely large bird, like, kind of fleeing in the distance. It was, like, a, it was definitely, like, a crane. It wasn't even, it was even, like, bigger than, like, a heron.

and so I did like a little bit of research deep dive into the area and so like south jersey like the pine barons they have they have the sandhill crane which actually migrates through there but but even like weirder and like more more recent times like in the 90s there was a farmer like an upstate in New York who actually imported these they're called Eurasian gray cranes and they actually they got loose and they somehow like I guess found the Sandhill Crane population and started like intermingling

with them so actually like I it's extremely with my mind's eye like I saw quite well but you know with the camera I was using at the time it didn't like you can kind of see it but it's like extremely extremely in the distance so you know my theory on the Jersey devil

is that you know basically back in colonial times when you know people were first coming to this country, you know, they were coming across like Sand Hill cranes and they mistook it for the Jersey devil. And I know it's controversial and people will like, you know, kind of, you know, really, really put the paranormal side to things. But like, like, I mean, the sandal cranes, like they, they avoid, like, they avoid humanity like the plague. And like, I was like, I mean, I was maybe a quarter mile away from this thing and it took off.

And with these drained bogs, it's like you go in there. And I also shot another, so I shot, there was a rose in the same kind of area. It was like Brendan T. Byrne State Forest, which is part of the Pine Barrens. There was a report citing of, you know, Bigfoot, you know, by the side of the road. You know, some, just like some person saw like a juvenile Bigfoot. And so I, it was, you know, one of the early videos. and, you know, I definitely, like, I captured some type of footprint, and it looked like it treaded into the, like, the bogs, like in the swamps there. So, like, you know, because I really, I feel like if these things are just, you know, Bigfoot's like avoiding us, they're going to go to, like, you know, the most nasty places they can to avoid us.

And funny enough, like, I was looking at the Google comments for like this, this area where, where I saw these like footprints and like just some like local yokel was like, he was like, oh, this is, oh, this is where, you know, this is where Bigfoot hangs out. So my mind was like completely blown. And that's not my, so basically moving more like towards the coast. You know, there have actually been like Bigfoot settings like at the Jersey shore. And I really, I feel like this potentially be. maybe could be real because during like the winter time like there's nobody in some of these towns.

Like everybody kind of moves back to like, you know, Philly or New York for the for the winter. And so like, you know, I just had this like funny thought of like a of a big foot like treading through some like Jersey beach town, you know, like with like nobody around. And so I went to it's called Double Trouble State Park. And so this basically like underneath the underneath the New Jersey Pine Barrens is like one of the largest like reservoirs in the world for like water. So it's not even like, so it's basically like these aquifers that are underground that are creating these like, you know, rivers through these like state parks like are in in the pine barons. And, you know, it's like this really weird looking like tea colored, tea colored like, you know, kind of water to it.

And I think that's actually where I, I think years prior, like I, I think I wrote into you about a swamp dog in South Jersey. Oh, yeah. And like the area, yeah, and the area that he was at. And so I kind of like, I invested this, you know, this area just to kind of, you know, see if there's any, like, you know, validity to it. And, like, you go back, like in some of these, like, you know, like river areas. And it's, it's really, really, like, really Jurassic back.

You know, there's like, sometimes there's like Spanish moss, like hanging on the trees and things like that. Like it's real, like real, like real, real, real, real, real, real, super wild area.

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. And so I definitely, you know, could see how, like, they're, especially in South Jersey, there could be, you know, some type of, like, anything. But I guess it's starting to go a little bit further north, like, through the, that's called the Gateway National Recreation Area at Sandy Hook. And like, like, people just don't realize, like, even, you know, like, Harbor SEALs, like, really, they winter, like, in, like, at the Jersey Shore. and I just thought it was a funny idea of like, you know, I know it's not like it's not particularly

encrypted, but like, you know, just, I feel like it kind of, it could kind of blow people's minds just to like, you know, because I guess we have this like idea of like seals, at least on the East coast being like, you know, and you're like, you know, Nova Scotia or, or, you know, Greenland or something, you know, so it's just like fun knowing that like, you know, these kind of hit down here in the Mid-Atlantic we can like, we can go see seals. It's like the dead of winter too. It's usually like January or February. And so I was going to like, you know, kind of investigating the area a little bit more.

And there's definitely been a lot of like, you know, sea creatures. I'll explain sea creatures in that sandy hook bay area. And so there's a situation where there was these fishermen, but even just locals who they keep on reporting seeing a, like a sea monster with, it has like a bulldog. face to it and so it's like really weird that like specifically you know people just keep on bringing up this like you know kind of the sea creature that has this like same face every single time I just I just found that interesting you know just

with having like the harbour seals in that area but if you go further north like in New Jersey like you know getting towards almost the New York line basically the during the ice ages the ice sheets basically the the size Southern Terminus was near, like, you know, North Jersey and southern New York. So what happened was, like, all that, like, earth and rocks and soils that were, you know, when they were ground and pushed, they, most of them were actually pushed to, like, this area. So you have, like, a lot of areas with all these, like, I think they're called, like, radical boulders, you know, that are just kind of deposited because it was where, like, you know, like I said,

the ice sheep had stopped. So, you know, I know David Polite used to as the, you know, a lot of times when he has occurrences of people, like, missing, it's around like, like, boulder, like, like, granite boulders and things like that. And it's just, just funny that this, you know, these areas in like North Jersey and, like, you know, southern New York have all these, like, you know, free radical boulders that, you know, people potentially, you know, or boulder fields that people potentially, like, have big foot, big foot sightings. and yeah I mean if you go to north jersey like you can actually just look it up on on google it's called just type in a big foot sculpture and so I don't even I think I just came across it randomly so in near like I think it's called the Wannockue Reservoir there's a trail out there it's called the sculpture trail and so you know I'm walking around and you know this it's where I shot one of my videos and basically like this bigfoot sculpture is atop this cave and so there was another situation where like

I definitely have to get a drone because you know when I was walking like near this cave like I definitely like I was like above the cave like where the bigfoot sculpture was and this terrible smell was like emanating from it and like something was in there and like I just did not want to like you know just check it out and like see see what was going on um I guess with, you know, with North Jersey, like the, if you're, I feel like if you're really, if you're really serious about like trying to find like Bigfoot that area, you know, the, basically from like the Delaware Gap National Recreation, far as to like High Point State Park. That's, it's all part of like the, it's called the Kidotinney, like, Mountain Range.

And like, like, I feel like in terms of like, you know, potentially where these creatures have been pushed to, in New Jersey because I shot a video it was like um where these diners were at this like restaurant that was like a really like rural kind of like mountain kind of restaurant thing and they're sitting there and they see these like two two bigfoot like you know kind of like cross the field and like and these couples are just sitting there and they're like looking at each other like are you seeing that like these people you know they're strangers they're like are you seeing that and then like they're both looking at each other like, oh my God, like, what is this, right? So I shot a video out that way, and it's the only time I ever filled,

I filmed the, like, little baby bear cubs, which was like, you know, you know, just finally, finally see, finally see a bear in the wild. And, yeah, so that area through, you know, the Delaware Gap National Recreation area to High Point State Park, that's kind of like where, like, the big red eye, is known and that's that's like really famous for sightings. I tried to like mimic there was a sighting there where I believe it is it so I guess like in PA in New Jersey there's there's natural gas lines that run like from fracking and like so they don't they almost they almost serve as like power lines and there's been like a lot of like the poured sightings you know near

gas lines gas line clearings and so there was a gentleman who was like riding a bicycle and I just wanted to mimic that so I I just like strapped a camera of like onto my bike and you know I was riding along and I didn't have I didn't I didn't have any experiences there but I did have um so I was in it's called Stoke State Forest which is just south of Highpoint State Park and you know more recently I finally I finally started wood doing wood knocks because it like saves me a lot of walking saves me a lot of like I feel like if there's any way of like maybe tricking the species into responding like I feel like you know like a wood knock is is kind of anonymous anonymous whereas like if you're doing like a big foot how

it like you know they can like they can I feel like they can like understand the difference in your vocal chords and so I so I did like a I did like a just like just one or two knocks and I just I had this like it was there's nobody there's no one else in this far Like I try and I always try and go to like state parks on like a Tuesday or like a Wednesday when there's like nobody there. I saw like one one or two cars further down, which you know, these fishermen. And I had just this like I don't know how to describe it, but it was like a it was like a hellish like a hellish scream that like that came that came through like the forest. And just it just sounded so like just so unnatural, you know. like, like, just no, it just didn't seem like something like a human, like a human could produce.

And then also when I was in Delaware Gat National Recreation area a little bit further south, that's when I've come, like, I went there. It was like, God, it was like maybe March or April, and it just snowed. And so not too many people were there. And I think I had like, I had my, I have like kind of like snow shoes just to, you kind of hike through kind of snowy areas. and I came across like there was someone had discarded their pants there like you know at like 1,500 feet like it was just real like real real real scary stuff coming across I'm or I was done when I saw that I just I just came back down because you know especially like during you know more like winter months when there's nobody out there I mean you know it can it's it's

it's one of the things where you know when you go in the woods like you have to um you just have to be, have your wits about you and, you know, it was really disturbing to find, to find that. I found even also in National Gat Gap Recreation Area, this is actually like on the PA side. So it's the Delaware Gat National Recreation Area. It's in PA and New Jersey and kind of straddles the northern, northern part of the Delaware River there. And like I came across like, it was like, you know, it was like April or something. like something had killed and gutted a deer like off the trail. I mean, there was a report citing like along that area like years ago.

Like truckers like used to like see, you know, Bigfoot like, you know, by the side of the road at nighttime, like a family of Bigfoot. So I definitely, I definitely had to go to that area and try and check that out. You know, New Jersey is weird because it has like a lot of these like county and like state parks. that are really like ginormous. There's the Mayland Dickerson Park, and I had a response back to a wood knock there. And, you know, it's not even like a state park, but I believe it's actually a county park. And so it's like really, it's really like unvisited.

And it's near the Picatinny Arsenal where all the, I believe it was all like the drone sightings were, like, you know, like last year. And like, so it's a real like, really, really weird area. and so I actually had a response like to to a wood knock in the area and I remember like there was there was definitely like an area that was like it's more like a brush kind of area that's like further further out and like you know I was trying to like be apprehensive in those areas because you know if there's a bear if it's like April or whatever late March I think bears I saw like at you know near near you know where that's saying was at that restaurant that was I saw there was like it was like a mama bear with like two cubs and this was like early March so bears bears were even getting out like in early

March like in this area I guess it just has to do with a lot with like the temperature and if it's you know kind of like safe to get out and I guess another you know real at least in New Jersey another area that's gotten like really like crazy

in terms of you know wildness area it's called like the Ramapo Ramako Valley and it's like a large once again it's like it's like basically two large county parks that combine to like almost like five or 10,000 acres and there's been sightings up that way you know where you know um you know someone's driving in a car and yeah they've had you know sightings in that area I believe it going like skyline drive but yeah even even going out there it's like you're you realize you're like oh man like I'm in these areas and like You know, you can, you know, see like the New York skyline sometimes, you know, from some of these mountains.

And, you know, it just makes you realize, like, how quickly things get rural, like, in some of these areas. And I guess just trying to get to New York. So New York, basically, it's called, so basically just across the line, it's called Haremont State Park. and there's there's been like it's called like it's like seven lakes drive you're like it's like sabago lake all those types of areas through there and there's been like multiple multiple like sightings through that area and there's so many boulder fields and like I totally understood how like you know somebody could somebody could come across you know some type of some type of creature in this area just because it gets like so wild and really like I said no nobody's

out in these areas. Go a little bit further north. I went to, it's called Lake Minowaska State Park. And so basically it's not really part of the cat skills. It's kind of its own thing. And there's these ice caverns there. And like, there was a sighting at these ice caverns. Like during, I feel like a lot of this stuff is just like happening during like the middle,

like the middle of like winter in these areas. So it's like, you know, like, you know, our, My theory is, like, are they, like, or Bigfoot, like, migrating from, like, the Adirondacks down to the cat schools, like, during the winter just to, like, avoid, like, the extreme, like, cold temperatures. Like, that's kind of my theory for New York. But, yeah, I mean, like, even just, like, when you look out into these valleys, it's just, it's just, it's like, P.A., it's, like, endless.

The Catskills and, you know, Adirondacks have that same feeling of, like, North Central PA where, you know, there's this level of wildness. I guess, you know, just a quick note about, like, you know, PA, North Central PA, like, a lot of these, like, state forests that became, you know, that became state forest was basically because all the railroad industry, they destroyed, like, a lot of these forests back in the early part of the 20th century. and so the state bought back these lands at penny on a dollar. And now, you know, 125 years later, you know, a lot of these forests have grown back. And, yeah, I think it's kind of the same situation up there near the Catskills. And so, yeah, I started to shoot in some videos like near the Catskills. And, yeah, basically, like, the Catskills is really the watershed for New York City.

So you go to these like different reservoirs up there and you'll see like New York City police officers like guarding, you know, guarding these like reservoirs and you're like 200 miles away from New York. And so I went to the Pacton Reservoir. There's like a thing it's called like a Shaver, Shavortown grill or trail. And like a lot of like the cat skills were known for like tanning products because like tanning leather products. because the hemlock tree is produced the tannin. So there's a lot, there's like a lot of abandoned towns that like used to be just like tanneries. And so when I was going up this trail, like, you know,

like once again, I'm a long on a trail by myself and like this like stick just comes like flying, flying through the forest, not a rock. It was like a branch, like something through a branch. And I just, I just headed out because it was like, it was crazy. I guess going a little bit, like going a little bit further north, there's actually a legend in the cat skills of the Gramsville gorilla,

and that was like basically just known as like an escape primate. They think, like I said, they think it was more of like a, you know, of like a mountain gorilla, but from like a zoo or from a, was a circus train. But basically with like the slide mountain wilderness up, there, like, you could really, like, it's, it's, I think the Catskills are also, they're also like half a million acres, you know, just kind of like an Allegheny National Forest. And it's, it's real, like, my, kind of my, my target area for the area is actually, like, near, it's called Gilboa. And there's a little park there called Mind Kill State Park. And one thing I've, I've been discovering is that, like, you know, I've been watching, a lot of times I'll just like, I'll watch, like, a YouTube video. It's more of just, like, a hiking video just to, like, you know, kind of like, just like get a semblance of the train kind of. And like, so there was this one gentleman who was hiking and he was like, he was like,

oh my God, like, you know, like I've seen like hiking videos that show like all the signs of like a classic like Bigfoot like encounter like if it's stalking people. And they have these people have nothing to do with like Bigfoot. They're just like these like just these hiking like hiking trail videos. and it really always blows my mind. And so I went to, it's called Mind Kill State Park, and there's plenty of like plenty of trails, plenty of, you know, things on that level for, you know,

really, really getting lost. And like I said, also with the slide mountain wilderness, it's like, you know, the cat skills actually get up to like 4,000 feet. So, you know, it's a really rugged, like in a wild area for it being on the east coast. And I actually went to, I also went to the New York Bigfoot conference, which was in October.

And, you know, when I was up there, like I shot a, I shot a video for just, you know, like the southern terminus of the Adirondacks. And I feel like there's other people that kind of cover the Adirondacks because, like, they're, I think you can get, you can fit the Grand Canyon,

Yellowstone, like, glacier and like glacier and like, uh, uh, Yosemite, all in it. It's, it's, it's just such a vast area, you know, so it's like, I feel like I'm okay with like where I'm at, like more like southerly in the mid-Atlantic. This is Daniel Fischel.

And at the Bigfoot conference, I saw, you know, like, it was incredible, like just, you know, meeting. Like, you know, usually there's like, I know,

like the Ohio Bigfoot conference has like 30,000 people or something. But this one, there was only like a hundred people there and like you know i met like ken gearhart you know cliff barrickman renne halland you know dr sarmiento um adam davies like and but guys from like squatchez houis so it was just it was like a real surreal experience like at this conference where there was only like a hundred people and you know i i had to pinch myself you know just just kind of being in that crowd um and you know but i i think i realized from that experience, maybe the Adirondacks or they're kind of like the southern Adirondacks. It's like my, you know, like Saratoga Springs. That's like my, that's like my

northern, northern terminus for where, you know, I kind of do, you know, Sasquatch hunting. And I also did a, I also did a video in Long Island too because there had been, like, sightings of a bigfoot in like, you know, I think it's like Walt Whitman State Park. But I was a little bit further north near like it's called sagamore hill which is like i think it was like teddy roosevelt uh like summer home correct and just just yeah and just just just being in that area like you know you like you see like you know the natural resources that are there like the abundance of food and you know it's really really mind-blowing and um yeah so that's that's that's kind of that's it's been my experiences and i believe i'm going to be heading to uh i'll finally got to shoot a video

Allegheny National Forest soon enough because it's actually legal to it's legal to film in national parks now. So yeah, you don't need like a you don't need like a film permit anymore. And I'm actually looking to go to so near Allegheny it's called Cook's Fars and that's Northwest PA. It's near like the Forest County Bigfoot Festival and Cooks Fitt County, Cooks Forest has a like it actually was an area where two. railroad companies couldn't decide like who owned the area so it's it's like one of the original growth farce like still left in PA so that's that's been my that's been my past couple years and it's been quite a quite a journey to just really you know come close to something that potentially like though people you know may not have any like evidence or

belief in and I just I just like the idea of like you know potentially finding some type of evidence for you know not only just like Bigfoot but like any type of you know cryptozoological species that like might you know still still exist it really is a fascinating channel in the fact that the reason I I love it is that you do hit a lot of the places you go to I've actually had interviews in those areas. So, you know, we talked about, you know, you went and checked out swamp dogs area. Listeners that have been around for a while will remember Swamp Dog from New Jersey,

but also I've had plenty of interviews that have, you know, talked about Misha State Forest, Gilboa a few times. So that area has a lot of stuff. That's really crazy up there. Yeah. So in the last few minutes we have, I actually wanted to talk you. So when you went up to Gilboa, from your perspective, you know, I'm sure you've heard a few of the encounters and sightings in that area. Is that a pretty squatchy area up there in Gilboa?

Yeah. And I say that because literally when I was at the Mind Kill State Park, which is, you know, right in Gilboa there, there was no one in the park. There wasn't even, the park ranger wasn't even in the park. And, like, I was literally the only person there and a, like, a flock or whatever it is, a gaggle of turkeys cut me off in the parking lot, which just showed you, like, how, like, crazy and rural, like, I mean, you know, turkeys are like, like, I, one time I was going back from, like, I think it was the Pythokton Reservoir, and I took, you know, another experience is just, like, taking a lot of these old logging roads and just, like, waiting just to go over a cliff, you know, because they're just so, like, you know, rickety and like, you know, just,

just seeing, like, having a, you know, like a, you know, a little flock of, you know, turkeys cut me off in the state park. And, you know, when I was there, I also saw a bobcat by the side of the road. So it just shows you, like, I mean, these are species that, like, avoid, like, people at all costs. So you're, you know, you're really, like, you're really out in the middle of nowhere, you know. And there's just like, there's no, there's just not even like even outside of just like the state parks like if you're just like in the area um just as like a you know like living in there like it's all wooded it's all thick woods it's it's it's it's like a jungle like when you when you go to these areas some wild stuff do you have

any ideas for places you want to hit in the future yeah so i i you know like i said i'm going to I'm definitely going to go to the Lake Allianian National. I'm going to go to the, it's called like the Cook Forest, you know, Bigfoot Festival in Marionville, PA. And I'm sorry, I don't know, it's just Forest County Bigfoot Festival. It's been there a couple years. And, you know, now that, like, you're able to, I'm able to film, like, an Allegheny reservoir, I'm going to go to that area.

And there's a lot of sightings around, like, the reservoir. there. So that's kind of like, you know, I always try and, I always try and go near like bodies of water just because, I mean, I feel like that's like the most, you know, kind of prominent area where these creatures might be. And then, you know, while I'm there, I'm also going to go to the the old growth forest that's there. I have another place. There's a basically like where I, you know, I shot my like, my Thunderbird and like the, was it like the snowshoe videos. It's like a little park called Black, Blackmore Shannon State Park. So I'm going to be filming a video there pretty soon.

And it's, you know, it's, these areas are just wild. There's nobody out there. And especially with the state game lands, like, it gets really, gets really hairy just because, you know, three quarters of the year. Like there's, you know, PA, PA has like, you know, the one and a half million, you know, acres of state game land. and like basically for three quarters of the year really nobody cares you know or they're just primarily for recreation use they're not for hunting use so it's it's not like they're just strictly for you know hunting it's it can also be for you know plenty of trails like you know one of the one of the state

game lands has you know it's like has like tens of thousands of acres you know so it's it's real like if like you could hide a dinosaur like in these areas and like nobody like nobody would ever know yeah absolutely and uh yeah so that's that's that's been my experiences the past couple years and you know and like i said with like the film background i'm really i'm really doing my best to just properly hopefully just get some type of some type of footage or something just because like it's you know it i feel like there's been such like momentum for something

that happen that like it's it's like it needs to like be solidified to like really cemented to hopefully try and you know kind of possibly

you know have this have this species you know recognized even you know if if if I get like a like some footage or something you know then getting having like a proper like a proper scientist like

come out to the field and you know, examine these areas, you know, hopefully, you know, being able to, like, just, just get some type of, like, real, like, proper scientific, you know, recognition of, of what's going on because, like, because something's going on, you know, and I think, I think it'll, it'll really just give, give credence to, like, all the people, you know, like, I mean, I guess, you know, my strategies for really, you know, kind of, you know, searching for these creatures comes from, like, John Green, where he,

He was like, you know, just kind of like stick to like a certain area, right? Like don't like don't go. I feel like if I were to go to Alaska or something, I feel like I would have, I would land into like an alien world of like trying to understand. Like I don't know the terrain, you know. But I feel like when I go out like into like the Mid-Atlantic region, like in PA and New York, like I know, like I know the forest and I know I know what's supposed to be there and what's not, you know. So just by, in terms of like, you know, process of elimination, I can really potentially, you know, kind of discover, you know, what may or may not be there.

Yeah, absolutely. I mean, that reminds me. Lyle Blackburn told me once, become the person who's the expert for the weird stuff in your area because no one else is going to do it.

or trucker with government contracts and you've had something happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report, if you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a spiritual retreat, and you saw something that shook your faith, or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA, or anything with clearance, and you've seen what the public hasn't. than I want to talk to you.
