Merkel Media I guess it's time To go back in time Are you telling me You built a time machine Out of a Dolion Time is but a stubborn illusion

I have a lot of memories Of the past People are time traveling Within themselves Time travel Is possible This was all circulating around the base that a giant had been killed but no one was supposed to talk about it.

Each up underneath the door, curl up to grab it, and then disappear. When he came over to me, dude, he slithered over to me. And this giant comes out of the cave and they're all frozen. And he starts running and firing at this giant. With a giant move, he's got a spear in one hand and he's running really fast. And spears, Dan, holds him up like this. somebody else shoot him in the face shoot him in the face they basically decapitating feel something and i look over and there are two small gray entities cooling it and they're literally i'm getting pulled off the bed

i reached my hand into this bush and i touch air couldn't breathe and i couldn't move because i know i'm seeing a monster okay i reloaded yep welcome to the show everybody you're listening to the Confessionals, I am your host, Tony Merkel, and thank you for being here.

Now, moving on here, we have Charles coming on this week, and Charles has a big foot encounter where this thing actually seemed to stock him. and the people he was riding horses with one day. And he tells the story of this thing crossing their path. It's very interesting. So let's get right into it. All right, tonight we have Charles coming on.

And Charles contacted me on Facebook. And Charles, how you doing, man? Good, man. How are you doing? I'm doing great. I'm doing great. So right now you're driving for work and stuff. And actually, to be honest with you, this is the first time I've actually done an interview

that wasn't in a controlled environment per se. So we're hoping everything goes good. and I'm sure it will because your audio sounds real good right now. And so, well, you have a Bigfoot encounter you wanted to share with me. And then you were also telling me that you had some demonic things happening more recently to you. And so why don't we just start off with the Bigfoot encounter that you had and stuff? I know you're down in Texas. And the experience happened just outside of Houston, if I remember correctly.

So just kind of walk us into what happened. Share with us, you know, the details of what were you doing that day? and had this whole thing transpire. All right. It started out, man. I lived in a certain place, and then my sister lived, actually my step-sister.

She lived about 30 miles away from me and a host to a little town called Cut and Shoot, Texas. Actually, for the first time in life, I was in a place where I could to purchase and own a horse and take care of a horse. So I did that, and my horse stayed at my sister's house because where I was at, you know, it was just too small, plus I had two kids I was raising on my own. So my weekends consisted of going over to our place and, you know, riding my horse,

doing stuff like that whenever, you know, I could. And we had planned this weekend. It was like a, it was going to be a beautiful spring day. We had planned to go riding this particular day. So we were up at the break at the, oh, I was up at the break at dawn, drink coffee, watching the two settle or the mist settle from the night before because it was like, it was going to be a beautiful day. Like the mid-80s during the day, which is perfect, Texas weather.

especially down there. And so we've gotten our horses ready and everything. We hopped on their back after we got finished with the coffee and everything. And we rode to a friend's house because he was going to ride to and get his horse. And so it was my sister, her husband, and then our friend Tommy. I don't know if I was supposed to say is not. And we had to get to, we rolled to his house, picked him up. Actually, he joined the crew there.

and the where we was riding is going to be a big a big hunt lease. It was like 5,000 acres, and, you know, it wasn't being used because of springtime. And they were pretty cool with us riding back there. And Tommy's land happened to connect to the property, to the hunt and lease. So we went down his property and took a little shortcut through the woods,

and we were out there on the hunt lease, actually. And we had come to this big sandy patch. That was nothing but sand, and there was no, there was no prints in it except there was a bare footprint in single file about six, seven feet apart. And the sand was moist and stuff and it held shape real well whenever it put its foot down. It was a long, narrow footprint that kind of like had more of a point going towards the big toe from the little toe. You could see them all there, but it was really pointing. And I was like, I'm looking at this stuff. And, you know, everybody else is just riding along casually, like, they don't even care about the footprints.

And I'm like, who in the world is out here barefoot doing this stuff? And I just couldn't get over the fact that somebody was out there barefoot. Man, this place is bad for snakes and, you know, briar patches and everything else. So the last place you want to be is out in the middle of the sticks, you know, going barefoot. But finally I let it go, and we rode for a little while. About three or four hours later, we come to a key, and we took a left, and we didn't know it at the time, but about four blocks down, it actually ended in a metal fence there, and we couldn't get across, and it was just kind of a dead end for us, basically. And along both sides of the fence, in both directions, there was about three or four feet on each side of the fence. that that was cut, you could tell they clear-cut it

just to get the fence down. So they maintain that little trail along each side of the fence. And the road we're on, we were actually on a little road, but they had clear-cut over to the wood line about five or six feet on each side. So, you know, the total distance is probably the size the width of a two-lane road, basically. And this will come into play here in a second.

But we got to. the fence and realized, hey, we couldn't go anywhere. So we turned the horses around and started walking back. And we got, I don't know, probably 75, 100 feet away from the fence. And I had stopped. And I was looking down and there was a snake in the road and the blood was still pulling from his head, running, actually, from his head. And I'm sitting there looking at the snake and I turned my horse around because I didn't

look down to like I was right beside it. I turned my horse around, which would have me pointing towards the fence, facing the fence again. And I'm looking down to snake, and what it is is a little coral snake. And I had the whole thing going, you know, red, red touches yellow, kill a fellow. I was trying to go through all that in my head as I'm watching the snake. And after, I don't know, about a minute or two of studying the snake and I was still moving, the blood was coming from his head. I had looked up.

And I'm looking dead at the dead end fence or the fence. that we had just, you know, turned away from. And for about a split second, I'd looked up, and I don't know what caused me to look up to hold my gaze. Actually, it was probably more like five or six seconds. But I was just staring at the fence, and I was just like, what's going on here? And I couldn't figure it out.

And then all of a sudden, this red, red, and the thing that caught me most was how the hair that come off his arms. But anyway, it had taken a run and jump, and before it even left the fence along, or the wood line on each side of the road, on that side of the road, it was already in the air. And I got this perfect view of this thing, this creature, just like right over the middle of the road there, kind of in a real fast running stand. And he had his right leg forward so I couldn't see no genitals, but I'm sure it was a male because the way he was built.

And for a split second, I saw the thing, jump across the road. And he, like I said, he was in the air before he left one tree line. and then when you got across the road, he didn't touch the ground until after the second three line. I didn't even see him actually touched the ground at all. And I was just, I was like, done for a second. Then I spun in my saddle real quick, and I started to yell out, hey, did you guys?

And I looked back and they had kept walking. They weren't even looking the way I was. And I said, I finished on with that. I said, you know, did y'all see that thing, jump across the road down there? And they were like, what thing? I go, just down there. I go, y'all didn't see it.

But anyway, Tocelyn just jumped across the road there. And they were like, oh, it was a deer. I'm like, no, no, no. It was not deer, no cows, anything else. And, I mean, it was a real brief encounter, but. And I, even then, it wasn't thinking to me, you know, big foot or anything. I'm just thinking this creature. And it was, it was probably, it was probably about six and a half feet tall.

It was built kind of like a, it was, it was, it was, look like a marathon runner, but a lot bulkier. I mean, it wasn't, it wasn't this eight thing, like no Arnold Schwarzenegger thing. It was, it was, it was tall and thin, but it was real ripped, and it had, you know, a quite good, I don't know what you'd call it, but it was just a real tall marathon running looking thing that was really cut, cut, that's it. And the muscles, you could see, I mean, you could see every muscle in from the short. chest all the way down and his hair covered completely except for a little bit around the face. His eyes, he had looked, he had even had that, that, he'd seen that I'd seen him do that. Okay.

And then I knew what in the, well, I'll get to that a second. Anyway, he was looking at, his head was still straight, but he was looking at me. I could see him looking out the corner of his eyes as hard as good. And he had that look in his face like, oh, God, I've just been busted, you know. And his mouth was a little agape, and he had, and he likes that, the hair on his arm, that drew my attention and got the most stuck in my head out of the whole picture. I don't know, but I could, you know, the hair was on his arms were just hanging down. Actually, they were kind of being blown back from the forward motion.

And they were probably five or six inches. The hair was all over and was about five or six weeks long. Even on the head, I mean, the hair didn't grow excessively longer than any other hair on him. You know, all the hair was pretty uniform over his body. I mean, I could, and I could, the thing was, he was a reddish color, and I could see right through his skin from the position of the sun and the way the whole scene played out in front of me. And the skin was almost kind of my color, maybe a little bit more gray than my skin, than my skin. And I got white skin, by the way.

But it had maybe a little bit more gray to it. But, I mean, it was still pretty pink. and you could tell that he was he was a young kind of a younger one i'm not going to say how young i mean at the time i was 29 and i was thinking man he's only about 20 years old 23 years old something like that and i just caught so many details but like i said the thing that stood out the most was the hair just hanging off his arm and like and he had like he said he had his leg kind of his right leg forward i was looking at him from his right side and it was like a two-de pitcher it was just perfect man. And his

light leg was forward, but you couldn't see no genitals or anything. But, you know, he didn't, he had a really cut chest. There was no, there was no bulges where his breasts should have been, you know, or anything like that. It was just square, you know, kind of squaring, you could tell it was a chest from a male.

And from the longest time, that that image of him just hanging just hanging there over the road that just been stuck in my head until, and I was like, is this thing, you know, is this image you ever going to get out of my head? I'd wake up and I'd see it all through the day.

I'd see it, you know, this went on. This was about, let's see, the spring of 2003, because in 2004, early winter of 2004, I had met my wife and I'd moved up here to Fort Wayne, Indiana. And I'm from Texas. I was born and raised in Texas, specifically Pasadena. But, you know, I really didn't get introduced to the woods until I was about 14 years old. and I've had several things happen, but that's another story. And finally, I don't know what else, but I mean, it's hard to, I can look and still see it plain as day,

even though there's something else that it's been occupying my mind here lately. And that was, that was it, man. It was just a real, a real split second thing that I just happened to be looking in the right spot. And something pulled my gaze for there and held my gaze on that spot for a few seconds. I just didn't look up and turn away. I looked up and it was like I was locked on in that spot and then, you know, all of a sudden, this creature just jumps out, man. And there it is. Just plain as day.

Right. Literally. And I was, like I said, 75 feet away. So I got a pretty good look at him, you know, and details and everything. And his hair was on his eyes. or anything like that. It was like he just stepped out a grooming salon or something.

Like a dog looks whenever you take him out of a grooming salon. It was, oh, no man in hair, no mud, no any other thing. There wasn't, wow.

I mean, I saw, like that, I saw a lot of details of him, but just the thing that stuck out the most was the hair on the arms. I mean,

I don't know really what to say beyond that about that. I mean, it had big, blocky teeth. Like I said, His mouth was open a little bit, and his teeth are kind of square and blocky.

They're white. And they had a little gap between them, you know, between each two. But yeah, man, that was that situation there. So you see this thing. Roughly how far was it again from where you were at, like distance between you and it? the distance between me and it was probably 7500 feet and I like I said I'm on the horse you know and I'm kind of you know

I'm a little bit taller than it was but on my horse and it it was up in the air probably about two feet off the ground the whole trip across the opening so I mean there's no there's no person

barefooted that could have made that jump because I mean the rock the road was a gravelly road and then there was grass on both sides and pus the trees and everything else. To be in bare feet for a person to do that, there's no way. There's no way. He would have either slipped on the grass or stepped on a rock or something, you know, and would have messed up his jump, the whole, you know, would have messed the jump up or the landing.

One of the two. There's just no way it was a person doing that. But like I said, it was a red hair. It was a reddish brown. I guess more of a brick red color, but, you know, I could see all the way down to its skin. The hair wasn't good at all. Not at all.

And like I said, it was about 6'5 to, I'm not going to say it was closer to 7 foot, but, you know, then again, I didn't see it standing, you know, straight up. It was kind of in this running position. Its hands was slayed open and, like you said, his right leg was forward and his left.

his left leg was towards the best, you know, which first was covered in its genitals and all that. I just, you know, so.

Yeah. So, I mean, when this thing jumps across the road and stuff, I mean, roughly, uh,

the distance it covered, I'm thinking it's what, uh, 10, 15 feet? No, it was more than that. It was,

it was like, uh, it was a two lane. It was about the size. I mean, the road itself was like a single five foot length, okay? And it was bravo,

Kaliki Road. I don't know if I've never heard of Kaleiki, but it was that sort of paved or that type of road. And there was probably at least five or six feet on each side that they had that they had mowed down before it got to the woodline on each side. So, I mean, five, fifteen, yeah, I guess 15 to 20 feet. Okay. On both sides, or total, I mean, that's a hell of a distance in barefoot. And there's just no way. It was the person that made that jump.

I mean, you saw this thing. I mean, most people that have these types of experiences, not like yours, I should say it like this, most people that have a big foot experience, not encounter, but experience, don't actually see the thing. And you saw this thing. I'm assuming you're riding the horse, so it's in good daylight. And so you see this thing, you know, jump across the road at you. Now, you saw footprints before you saw it. And what's the time distance between the time you saw those footprints that made you question it to the time you actually saw this creature?

Okay, I saw the foot prints, and then we were riding for probably, oh, wow, this was back in 2004, so you have to forgive me here. No, it's fine. We were probably riding for about 30, 45 minutes, when we come across the watering hole or a mud hole, actually it was on a mud hole, but it was still a water, about four feet deep, and we were riding our horses to do it, I can like to pull. And probably about another 30, 45 minutes later, we'd come to that starting a row where it was, where the road that put the gate on. on it teed into the road we were on, and we decided to take that because, you know, we'd never been down there. And then that's what we ran into that gate,

and it was a green gate, and we didn't know where it was going to run into the gate, about three or four blocks down. Like I said, so we turned around and started to head back the other way, and I was looking at the snake on the road for some reason, and then, I don't know, something inside me said, look up, and,

and I don't know, I wasn't, I was there, maybe two seconds, and there it is. It just dumps right out in front of me. And I'm just like, you know, there was other things that happened that spring, too. And just even though I was in kind of a denial that, you know, and this whole time, I'm not thinking Bigfoot, seriously. I'm not, man.

I was not thinking Bigfoot at all. About the coast that ever came with Bigfoot was when I was a child, I went to Louisiana, and that's where my mom's side of the family's from. and that that legend of Bongy Creek come on it was like 1974 or 75 or something

you know and I never as I was growing up I entertained the idea but never you know never when my life would have been like

you know never what I thought I'd seen one and honestly when I did see one I didn't really think it was a big foot I just

some hairy red creature just jumped out across the road or the little road there in front me, man. And it was life-changing, man. That image has been burning in my head forever. And like I was telling you, man, I was like, is there anything that's ever going to get this image out of my head? And, of course, that was a horrible thing to say out loud. And I was by myself, and I'm, like,

taking this stuff and say it out loud because it seems like every time I turn around, there was in my head, you know, just right there reminding me, you know. Well, I mean, you experienced something that most people don't experience. And I'm curious, though, with what you just said, that you know, it's something that you wish you could have out of your head and you kind of felt bad for saying that. I'm not exactly sure why, because a lot of people, once they see these things, they wish they never had. And obviously, your encounter wasn't a violent encounter. It doesn't sound like you were terrified. But, you know, why do you feel that way? Why do you feel that way? Why do you? you feel like that you felt bad for saying that? For saying, be like, is this ever going to get out of my head? Yeah.

Type thing, thinking that. Because it was just always there. It was a constant nag, and it's a constant reminder. And, you know, I grew up hunting and I loved the woods. I was more,

I was more comfortable being in the woods by myself than being with my friends at a skate in the back in the early, you know, 80s or stuff, you know? Yeah. It just, just the way it was.

I was kind of a long, I want to kind of by myself person, you know, kept to myself. I had friends and we do crazy stuff, but, you know, I was just always, if it come down to hang it at the statering and looking at pretty girls or being out in the woods by yourself, I'd always take the ladder. But, yeah, man, and I've seen it, and it's really affected me hunting. Like, when I really came to turns with it, it was probably, I don't know, probably 2008 or 2009 after I've been in Indiana for a few years. And I had been hunting a couple times.

And, you know, I just cannot. It was always there reminding me that it was there in my head, that is. And it kind of made me skittish being out in the woods. I even went out and bought a Smith & Westin'Five. and I carried that on my chest whenever I went in the woods. As a matter of fact, I don't leave the house without a gun, and some of my route takes me through country, and I don't ever plan I'm getting stuck on the spotlight on the road,

you know, just in case because up here they start talking about dog man and everything. And, you know, it just kind of made me shy about going in the woods, especially in the morning walking into the woods, you know, and then in the evening, as the sun's already down and you're walking out of the wood, oh my god that's it's a horrifying time for me and i don't know why it's just yeah that's just the way it is and i've been doing stuff to try to i've been trying to face it head on by going hunting and everything but the thought is always there and then i was just brought myself to thinking and space speaking and i'm just like please something get this out of my head i don't want to see it no more you know

yeah um i'm not going to go out there and go hunt for him anything anything like that uh But I don't go in the woods without a gun anymore, regardless of what I'm doing. Yeah, and that's understandable. You know, the fact that this thing is red and stuff kind of, and the fact that you didn't feel like you were in danger is almost a contradictory sometimes because so many people say when they see these things out there, that when they see a red one, that those are the ones that tend to be more violent and aggressive. I had actually a guy on my show. Oh, man, it was a while ago. I think it was like episode 31. And he talks about experiencing the violent nature of these red ones.

He hates them passionately. Absolutely 100% hates him. And I've heard this before. And so yours was totally different. Now, did you ever get a sense that maybe this thing, or not even a sense, but did you ever sit back and wonder, you know, you saw those prints? And then it was a long time after you saw the print. Like, I mean, we're talking a good amount of time that you actually saw this thing.

Do you ever feel like maybe this thing was stalking you at all? I saw the print, and the only thing going through my mind at the time was who in the world was out here leaving print, walking around the wood barefooting. Because this is a place where it's full of water moccans, the odd rattlesnake, and obviously coral snake. And plus, you're out there walking on this land, you know, whoever it is, walking on. this land and there's briar patches everywhere. I mean, you can't, you can't get, it's like you can't even get to a sandy place without walking through a briar patch first. I don't know what the conditions are that caused that, but that's the way it seemed to be there

in East Texas. And so my thoughts were, two in the world's leaving these footprint. Why are they out here in bare feet? That's my thought. There was no other thoughts before then. And then I saw, oh, something I forgot to add. before I saw the creature on that way, when we took a left to go down that little road

that feed into the main road we were on, my horse, and, you know, I swear if I ever, if I can ever go hunt with a horse, that's what I'm going to do from now on, because they will clue you on.

If you have the sense enough to pay attention to what your horse is telling me, okay, in his own little way, my horse was the whole, the whole trip down the road, he didn't want to be there. He kept looking to his left. His ears were caught to the,

left. And he was practically jerking the reins out of my hand because he was wanting to look to the left. The whole time, I mean, he was real skittish. I could just tell when his front legs started getting that herky, jerky feel to him, the ride became

just uncomfortable as being like for the horse. And he was looking to the left the whole time, and this creature jumped from the left to the right, okay? And of course, you know, it took me even a while just to clue in on that well after the incident. And it was well after I, actually,

it was well after me coming and pacing it head on and telling myself, like, hey, this is what you go on the woods after I revisited the whole scene, you know, in my life, about 2007 or 2008. And then I started picking up on all the little things that had been going on prior to that. And then, and the biggest thing was the whole, my horse knew that it was there. And if I would just be paying attention to my horse and even glance, you know, what he was trying to do and where he was looking and the way his ears are caught. Who knows? But, you know, I often wondered, was he stalking me or did we just run across it by chance? You know, maybe it was going up to our friend's house and I don't know, getting four-speed or cow feet because they had a little cow that they were

raising for 4-H on their property, too. So there was, there was speed. out, and I don't know if he was out of curiosity, getting the food from the horses and the cows, or what, and then I think what happened was that we had started going on that little trail ride that day, and

he got busted, he spun around, and he took off, just as fast as he could, across that sandy little area there, and then, you know, all you could see was the footprints in the sandy area. You couldn't see nothing before or nothing after. and the way he took off,

we wasn't even really going that way in the first place. So, you know, I don't know if he was stalking, if he had other buddies around. I mean, thinking about the horse was acting, you know, they really didn't see clued in on anything else. My horse's concern was mainly what was still left and him not wanting to be there. He got a little barn saw real quick

and he wanted to go back home. Yeah, you know, it's funny that you said that because when we had our little mix up there with our, you know, I said, go ahead, finish the thoughts. That was actually just going to be another question that I had. And I figured I'd wait until later, but you covered it anyways. Because I was going to ask you, you know, your horse. A lot of times people say the animals know that they're there.

They sense something's off. And I was wondering if he had to experience anything like that with the horse. Now, you said that, you know, the ladies, I think you said it was all ladies with you, that were with you, right? No, no. It was my wife or my, my, my, uh, my step-fister. her husband and then a friend of ours. Okay.

His name happened to be Tommy. I'm not going to tell you his last name. I probably shouldn't even say that. It's fine. So those two people, the two men and the one lady, they didn't see it. And did they ever mention that their horses

were acting up that day at all? No, actually, I don't know. I never really asked about their horses. All I know what was the plague that was plaguing my horse. And like I said, even then, even in the moment, And I'm just like, just go straight down the road, put trying to turn around and yank the reins out of my hand, you know. I'm not thinking, hey, there's something off the left I should be aware of, you know.

Yeah, man. Actually, here's a little side story. A few years ago, I was hunting on some property, and the guy had horses down there. And the horses were minding their own business, nothing going on. and then both them picked their heads up, and they cocked their ears and looked that away, and I looked over that away because I noticed them take that real sudden stance like that, and here comes an eight-point bus right down the ridge line. So I'm like, man, if I ever get a chance to go hunt with a horse or something again,

you know, I'm there. I'm going because, man, they are some, they will paddle-tale on anything in the woods that, you know, catches their attention or spook them. You just got to be able to, you know, see the sign for what it is. and not think it's, you know, at these barns hour. He wants to go home. He doesn't want to be ridden and all this other stuff. After we turn around, I mean, he had to, after we turn around and started walking away

from the gate before I seen the snake, he had a little bit of a bounce in him, like he wanted to put some distance between us and the gate there. And then, of course, I stopped him when I saw the snake because you rarely, rarely, unless you go digging for coral snakes and king snakes in Texas, and you better know the difference between the two, you know, you never see them. And that's why I was just like, wow, how did this snake get here in the middle of the road? And like I said, the blood was fresh. It was still pulling, pulling out of his head, you know, still bleeding and huddling around his head and stuff.

And his tail was kind of wigging a little bit. And I don't know if maybe one of the other horses stepped on it or maybe the creeker might have threw it out there to, you know, I don't know, whatever. To spook us or spook the horses or whatever. I don't know how the snake got there. And what killed the snake? all I know it was there, and I had to spend my horse around to take a better look at it. And, you know, my sister and all of them, they had kept riding, like I said. And, you know, when I said, hey, good you see.

I got that out of my mouth. And then I spun around, and I realized that they had kept going the same. They were off in their own little world. Like, you know, everything's just fine as dandy. Nothing, nothing major is going on here. And I'm just like, you know, still hoping one of them might have said something. As soon as I said, did you see that jump the road down there? And they were all, what?

What's my sister? Because she's kind of a loud mouth. And she's like, no, that was just a deer. And I'm like, no. No, you're not going to try to push all that stuff on me. You know, I sooner believe it was a man that jumped across the road down there, you know, than a deer. But yeah, man, it just cleared that. And it was about two feet near the whole way across.

And I was just really blown away, you know, that it. because I mean, wow, it was a pretty, they'd have to be some kind of Olympic gold medalist or something, you know, to do something like that. And then to do it with bare feet in the grass and gravel everywhere, you know. I'm just not buying the whole person in a big person in a costume thing either. But they would have had to know, we did plan and all this, you know, and when to see us, get us in the right spot, you know. Yeah, no. I mean, I don't know all honesty. I mean, somebody in the costume.

I mean, how many times can we use that excuse? You know, like, oh, somebody in a costume. Right. Really? I mean, just somebody's in a costume, waiting for somebody to come through on a horse, just to jump out and try tricking them. It's just ridiculous. And plus, you're in Texas.

I mean, I can't imagine it's very, you know, comfortably cool down there. And to be in a costume out in the heat and stuff, just give me a break. I'm not buying it. You know what I mean? This costume would have been, had to been made by, I don't know. actually you know I know it wasn't a costume I'm just going to throw this in there

it would have been more of somebody meticulously super gluing strands of hair all over a person's body because there is no way you would ever see that kind of definition through a costume you know something would be wrinkling up somewhere or something but you could see every

muscle I mean just just stuff you only see in like CGI films and stuff or you know doctored up movies that you know, you can see every muscle in an animal or a person. I mean, everything, man. There was no getting around it. But yeah, he struck me, I'm going to say, well, I'm pretty sure it's key.

But, yeah, he seemed to be, but, you know, about in his 20s, but I've heard, I've listened to a couple of shows that usually there's a lot younger ones kind of look like that, even though they're much younger than what, you know, they would appear to be, you know. So I don't know. Like I said, I was 29. the time. I'm 47 now. I was a little bit older in 20. I'm sorry, that's probably more like 33 or something like that. Okay. And you estimated the age of this thing in its 20s, right? Correct. Yeah. So, like, you know, I've never seen a Bigfoot. And what makes you feel like it was

in its 20s? Like, because, I mean, I think, you know, when you see a Bigfoot, I'm like, judging, judging the age of it for me would be like trying to judge the age of a tree, you know what I mean? Right, right, I understand all that. The thing that got me really thinking about it was several different things. A, the footprints were too nice and neat. There was no big scars or deformity in the footprint. I mean, you could see every ridge line in the toes and the heel, the whole foot in that track in the sand there.

I mean, the sand was still kind of wet from, I don't know when, but whatever it did, it just, it's like it picked his foot up and set it back down. and picked it. There was no pulling in or pulling out of the footprint or anything. And you could see all kind of details in the footprint because that kind of stuck with me there for a few minutes before we started the ride there. And you could see every little detail of the foot in that footprint. There was no scars. And like I said, I didn't think about this to well after the whole event, but there was no scars or anything in the footprint. And then when I saw it, this thing didn't have Maddie's there. There was no, there was no,

obvious stars or old, old looking skin or hair. You know, there was no gray whatsoever in this thing. It was all uniform in color, uniform in length, no matting, no scars on its body from what I've seen, or none of that stuff that you would expect from an older person, you know, over time and just, especially being out of the woods, over time and the years that, you know, you would accumulate stars, the stars and thinning hair and, you know, all that. sort of stuff. And so I thought about it for a while and, you know, it just had to be, it had to be a younger adult male. There's no way it was 40, 50 years old, you know, 30 years old.

I wouldn't even put his age over 30, honestly. And I just got that feeling, you know, that it was a younger guy and, and he just wanted to, you know, I don't know for, I don't know if like he thought he had us, he was that well out of spite of us, you know, or what, but he just looked. I could see it in his, I could see his eye, or his bright eye anyway. He had his eye, his head was straight, but he was looking dead at me. And his eyes were kind of the colored area, I don't know what you call that. It was, it was a lot bigger, it seems, than a person's eye.

And the eyes were kind of a, they were kind of a brownish red, look to them. And they were just wide open as can be like, oh, crap, I was busted. you know, like he was, he was either in trouble or going to get in trouble because he was fine. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Just something like that, like, hand in the 50-dard moment that, you know. Yeah, and it's funny because you said that, you know, he's looking right at you. This whole time, I'm listening to your story, and I'm thinking of a side profile,

maybe because you said the way he ran, you saw the right leg. But I'm thinking that it's jumping across and it's just, you know, 8.A to point B. But it actually turns its head and looks at you. So it knows that you're there. It didn't look. It didn't look at me. It didn't turn his head. He had, his head was straight, but his eyes, that's why I could have said.

I seen the right side. His eyes were cocked, hardest can be looking out of the corner of his eye at me. Yeah, yeah. I can only see the one eye. I couldn't see the other one. And it was, it was wide open, man. And big as can be like, oh, crap, here in the headlight, hand in the cookie jar. You know, he was busted right then and there.

and he just had that look in his eyes and, you know, the way his mouth was open. It was just like that sudden surprise that he just busted somebody doing something and you know that that look they get of they're just like frozen place and, you know, their mouths all agape and their eyes are wide.

You know what I mean? That's just the way it was, man. Yeah, I wish I would have seen it a full body. But like I said, man, it was like a 2D image, man. There was a tree line on each side. The road was going down the center, and this thing was just hanging right over the road there for a split second, right in front of me. And it was a, if I would have had a camera,

it would have been a perfect picture, man. It couldn't have gotten no better. But yeah, man, it was all I seen was pretty much the right side. His hands were splayed open. And why, why I cued in on the hair hanging off the arms the way I did, I don't know, man. That was just the thing that's, that's just been stuck with me at the same. whole time. You know, I've seen the whole thing, but the thing that got me the most was just the way his hair was hanging off his arm there on his right arm, you know? How long roughly was the hair?

Ah, man, it was, I don't know, probably four, five, six, no, it was nothing longer than six inches. Nothing shorter than four inches. Yeah, it was four to six inches. And it was all uniform, even on its head. The hair didn't grow longer than the rest of the five of the feet. or anything. It was all uniformly, and there was no, no, no, no bear spots, no war down spots, you know, no, uh, no thinning spots, none of that stuff on it. That's another thing that made me think after I got to thinking about it that, you know, he was a younger,

he was a younger, he was a younger cat, man. He wasn't no, you know, plus the way he was, he was, he was all ripped and cut and stuff. It wasn't like, you know, like a, I don't know, like maybe an adult one where USB, you know, they'd have a, maybe having a little bit of excess around their waist or, you know, something like that. This was all, this was all muscle. There was no mistake in it whatsoever. I got you. Yeah, it's interesting because, you know, in the northeast, or not the northeast, the northwest, you know, Pacific Northwest, you know, they're known to be these really big creatures. Down in your neck of the woods, from what I've heard, they're described a lot of the times,

like what you just described, like a marathon run. It was like he was cut, he was ripped, but he wasn't like gigantic. And I always wonder if that has something to do with the environment that they're in down there and things like that. But it's definitely an interesting encounter of a story that you have there, man. Before we get into the more demonic things that are happening in your life right now, or at least as of recently, just give us an instance here because I know you mentioned it earlier.

You said that looking back after this encounter, looking back, you started thinking about some things that you've experienced that, you know, makes you think more along the lines of Bigfoot activity. What do you mean by that? Well, I don't know how, there's been several instances over my life. Okay, I'm going to give you a time span here. And I'm just telling you this because it lets you know the time span that all this stuff had taken place over, taking place in my life to give you an idea of how much time I've been out of the woods. When I was about 14, my parents had bought some property on Lake Livingston.

We didn't have a house there or anything. All we had was a little camper and a tent, and we'd make a weekend thing of it. And that's about the time I really became in love with just being in the woods, man. It was like my serenity down in the moment whenever I could just step foot in the woods and just everything else just felt it away. And I was happy. So from about 14 up until, oh, wow.

Well, up until now, I still love, I don't say, I can't say I love being in the woods. I haven't really loved, I haven't really loved being in the woods up until, you know, I saw that creature jump across the road. But up until then, so from 14, that was about 33, 34 years old, and I've had several things that happened. Let's see. This was when I was about, I don't know, 17 or 18. I was younger than that. I was about 15 or 16, I think. I could give you a whole long story of how it came to be, but short story is they used to go hunting with some friends of mine, and he'd take me to his place because our dad's worked together, and he had his son, and me and his son would hang out, and he lived out on a stick.

And we would go out, and whenever I came over, man, it was grabbing guns and hitting the woods looking for anything, hog, squirrel, duck, you know, whatever was legal at the time. and we were out one day and we had gotten to a point so where we were out on our hands and knees falling through this big stuff and then we came upon this area it was a perfectly round shape

there was one tree in the middle and everything had been stripped off of it it was basically a pull of sticking up in this round it looked like a pit if you look at it from the top you think a pit and there was about three inches of nothing but leaves and at

pine needles covering it. And there was this one pole, and you know, the feeling I, even at that age, the feeling I had gotten was, this is like, it feels like this was a nursery or something. You know what I mean? And it was just a weird thing. I mean, I've seen what pigs do and everything else in the woods. They tear up everything and they'll, you know, their rest of the places are going to be wall in spots and, you know, rooted around and stuff.

You're not going to get this kind of activity with wild pig in the wood. And it was just, it had a very weird feel to it. It felt like it was like some kind of nursery. And I could actually see, you know, thinking about it after having my experience that, you know, that place was kind of like where maybe adult females with children would hang out during the day or something. And, you know, when we crawled upon, when we got to it on our hands of knees, there was nothing there. I mean, you didn't see anything. And, you know, there was in a snowball, well, I was going to say something else. There was no way we were thinking big foot, you know.

And we're just like, wow, this is really weird. And there was a couple other times when I go there that some really weird things that happened. You could claim it was one thing, but Tom and Smith just says, you know, no, that ain't, that ain't it. One time we heard, I don't know how much of these experiences you want to hear about. I mean, about me whatever. Yeah. No, I was just going to say that. That's kind of like what I was just looking for, like, the environment and stuff of, you know, because I mean, here's the thing, you see a big foot

and all of a sudden you start running through everything that you've ever experienced out in the woods and you start questioning things. And that's what I was trying to see what you meant, because, you know, I've never seen a big foot. But, you know, doing what I do and hearing so many encounter stories, there are times that I look back through my childhood where I spent a lot of time out in the woods. And a lot of time, actually, to be honest with you, by myself. And I remember walking into the woods and getting this creeped out feeling when I would enter into the woods. And I never felt like that. I should say, I didn't feel like that all the time. But there were definitely times that I would walk into the woods that I was in all the time. It's not like this is a

new area. This is like consistently similar areas. And I would get creeped out. I would always feel like something was watching me. And so as an adult doing the things that I do, now, I look back at those situations and you hear people say they got this creepy feeling like somebody was watching them, things like that. And you just wonder, was that something or not? Probably not. But, you know, it just makes you review everything that you experience throughout your entire life. And that's kind of what I was looking for. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like this one experience plugged in a lot of cords without any power all in once in my life. Like prior to prior to my experience probably

I think it was a weekend before I know I shouldn't have been out there doing it but man I love to hunt and you know I had a 30 30 in my hand I went back there and sat on the edge of this guy's property where a friend of ours Tommy and I was I wasn't there

for deer I was waiting I was hoping to catch a hog because I tell you out of all the things I've ever hunted hog or without a dog you can almost forget seeing hogs in the wild And the only one time I did, Sam, it was by sheer circumstance. But anyway, I was sitting out there.

I got 30-30 in my hand. I'm sitting up against the tree, watching a little cut-down area. That went off for about, I don't know, 100 yards or so. And I was waiting to see if maybe a pig or something would cross that area and he would afford me a shot.

So I'm sitting there, and it's in the evening. And that's when everything should start coming on light. Well, not everything. frogs, crickets, other little things, start coming alive. And I'm sitting there and it's dead silent, man. And after about five minutes sitting there, I just, all of a sudden I got this feeling like, man, something, I mean, I got a gun in my hand and something had to freak me out to the point where I had to get up and see that area. I just couldn't, I couldn't sit there. And I don't know where it came from, man.

It was just this gut, I don't know, this gut feeling said, you're in, you know, it was just a, you know, it was just, do you better move you know get out of there and i did i got out of there man and you know that i was i wondered about that for the longest time and then you know i saw my had my spiting there and i'm like okay okay i i can see where that feeling probably came from now yeah i think it had been around because there was the horses would go crazy in their pen at night you know uh the cow would go crazy in their and it's in at night and there's other things like coyote helen that i've listened to that I've heard at my sister's place and I now call in the question. But there was several instances where, you know, everything started making a little bit more sense after I had my sighting.

And then again, like I said, man, I questioned it initially by asking that y'all see that. And I think I even told my mom and dad that I'd seen what I've seen and but nobody had believed me. And my dad and my mom may know whenever, if I see something in the world, was, you know, they know how the kind of person I am that I'd love being in the woods. So they know I would, I wouldn't be mistaken anything or anything pretty much. And, yeah, I don't know where I was going with that. But anyway. It's fine.

Yeah, I kind of lost it there. Yeah, well, why don't you, why don't you kind of walk us into what's been happening recently in your life? Because part of your message to me was that you're having some experience. experiences with demonic activity more recent within the last couple months and stuff. So, you know, tell us what you've been experiencing. And also, hopefully you covered in your story, but I'm really interested in hearing what makes you think that did something happen where it stirred up this kind of activity? Or don't you know?

That's what I've been wondering, man. Okay. here's what clued me in up to it after after i listened to your story about the the the satanic worshipper uh luring in your house and then after that things kind of started taking a real downturn on you um you know how you know just everything started to get it like well the way you explained and the way i gathered it was everything was feeling like instead of looking you up it was dragging you down you know yeah and um so i kind of clued in on the there because man i tell you i couldn't pick something up or set something down

without it falling over um i would get these every once in a while i get this feeling like i'm not alone in my own bedroom and uh for a while then i was sleeping by myself my wife didn't like the snoring and you know so she would she would hide off to another little bedroom or sleep on the couch and living there for a long time there was me and my bed by myself and i got a king-sized bed and I'm going to do the layout just because this will be important in a second. I got a king's side bed. On my wife's side, there's a tannin bed and a big dresser, okay? That runs the length of the bed there.

And there's probably about three feet between the dresser and the tannin bed and the edge of our bed, okay? There's just enough to get over there and, you know, get dressed comfortably and then leave. And then on my side, I've got a little bit more room because I've got a gun safe on my side. and I have an office chair that takes back. It's not a recliner. It's an office chair that leans back and everything. I got that on my side because sometimes I just like sitting in there kicking back and watch TV. And I don't want to be sitting on the bed for whatever reason.

Okay. So getting into this now. I've been feeling that way for a while. Like, you know, if one more thing goes wrong, I don't know what I'm going to do. because like I said, man, I would set something up and it would fall over. I'd put something down, it would fall over. I get these feelings of like something is

not really stalking me, but kind of keyed in on me really in sleep. Every once and a while, I'd wake up. I'd be having bad dreams. Every night, it'd seem like. I'd wake up in between dreams and finally get the feeling

and then I'd fall back to sleep and, I don't know, a couple hours later, I'd be having another bad dream. well this happened one night I was found asleep I don't know two or three in the morning I was laying on my left side

and that would have me facing my wife's tanning bed her side of the bed and stuff and I was having a horrible dream and then I woke up from the dream and I woke up from the dream and I had my eyes open a little bit and I never knew what it's darker than the dark mint until that night.

What I seen, it was a little short-looking thing. I could see what's from waist up, and it was really weird. It had like a, its head was kind of like triangular with the longer side being towards the, from what I now know was the snout or the nose

or whatever you want to call it. And I had two little things coming off the top of its head, and its arms weren't all the way down, but they were, They were like straight out in front of it and there was no hand. It looked, you know, after I finally realized, and it took me a while. Actually, I spent all day wondering, what the hell was that? But I saw this shadow thingy and it was darker than the dark and it had like an aura around it.

I'm not going to see it the or was light, but you could definitely tell there was something around it, outlining it. And then the center was just really dark and it didn't have a walking motion. It kind of glided from the head of the head. of the bed on my wife's side, down when it got to about the end of the tanning bed, it dissipated. It went away. And then for the whole day, man, I was like, what in the world?

Shape was that? Because I knew I'd seen what I've seen because I was having a nightmare about werewolves like previously to, right before, and I woke up, my open eyes, and just there it was, man. And there was no hand. It looked like a

clothing hook, you know, bang, stick it out. front length and then, you know, with clothing hooked, what a goat's have, like, like, uh, hobs or they got clothes and feet or,

anyway, that's what it was. And I didn't realize this still later on the day, and then I finally saw it. Oh, yeah, I know. Sorry,

let me back up a second here. Okay. There was, you, you were asking me about what brought this thing in or what might have brought it in. Okay. About, two years ago

maybe I don't know yeah it had to be about two years ago I go in the front living room and of course my three I got four children and the two youngest one

I don't know if you ever heard of this game but if you do you ever hear of it avoid it like the flag man goat simulator no I never heard of it you never heard of it

trust me Google it or something I was watching a play and I wasn't thinking anything about any I didn't have no I didn't have no foresight of, oh, this is demonic game or anything. They were playing, and I'm watching the goat kill people and stuff,

and it was like the game, well, I'll tell you what I saw first. I'm watching a play, and then they got this little rocky lake that was kind of dark. And right there in the weeds, on the other side of the weeds and stuff, there was a big satanic red circle there, you know, the satanic star, I don't know what you call that thing, but it's the star in the circle around it. The Pentegram. The Pentegram. The Pentegram.

Yeah. It was big and red, man, just right there. And in that moment, I was like, okay, that's it. This game is done. You aren't playing it no more. I told my wife, that was it. No more was this game. And what she didn't tell me was we didn't have the game.

We'd actually bought it, purchased it on Xbox 360. And so the game's kind of just stuck there. And the other day, actually, I turned on my Xbox one. My son was playing in my bedroom. room and I saw the game come up again and I'm like okay you know I try Googling how the hell I get rid of this game permanently all I can do was the only I could find was to hide the game so that's what I did but anyway this game's all about sacrificing people to paint even if it's just game for them yeah so like you said man avoid it like the

plague because it's it's kind of like putting your hands on a Ouija board and asking anything that's come talk to you know what I mean And so I called on to that, and I don't know, man. If there was one defining thing that I think might have brought it invited or brought or something to the house, I would have to say that's it, man. Because shortly after that, man, looking back that for almost a year, man, at least a year, just everything was going south, man. Everything.

And then it led me up to where I was with my son. story there about being this shadow, which I know now was a goat that was not, I don't think he was walking because I couldn't see the bottom half of it. He was just kind of gliding across there. And I don't know what you, I don't know if that's called a baffement or what. Well, a baffamette is more of like a half human, half goat entity. It has like a goat head with horns. A lot of times it's depicted as a human body with breasts. So that's, what a Baphomet is. Okay, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, there's two other parts of this story.

I didn't, I didn't get to yet. So this happened over three nights, or I think it was three nights. Anyway, I thought about what that image was all day and it finally hit me that that's what it was, gliding across there. And I don't know if it was the following night or the next night, but everything kind of started ramping up after I've seen the little, the darker than dark shadow figure there. What was it? Oh, I was coming out of my bathroom and I had just taken a shower. I was coming on my bathroom. I went to shut off the light to exit the bathroom. And my bathroom's right there about,

I don't know, the door to my bathroom is probably about six feet away from the foot of the bed there. Okay? And I'm stepping out of my bathroom and I shut my eyes for a split second. And then this, it was right there in my face, man. In my mind's eye, it was right there. There was goat. It His horns were kind of curled around this time, and both eyes were looking at me, and it looked like it come up and just like it put his face right in mind, kind of flooded me with his horns, and his mouth was wide open, and I can see his eyes glaring at me and stuff, and it was a whitish silver figure, and all I seen was the head of this thing, and it was like right there in my face yelling at me,

or trying to scream at me for some really. I don't know. I don't know with at that point, I started to wake up and realize, but, you know, I haven't had got on my knees yet to, you know, say, hey, God, help me out here.

So that happened, and it was a really, it was a shocker, man. I was like, where in this image, where did this image coming from? You know, I'm just like,

what in the world is going on? But I, I worked my way past that. And it was the, either the night after that, or the next one. And you got to say, man, I'm having, you know, I'm just having horrible luck in life. I can't put something down or pick it up without me falling, without falling out, slipping out of my hand or being knocked over

or, or anything, man. It's just, everything was just, seemed like really oppressive and just, you know, like it, honestly, after it all got done with, it had me to the point, and I'm going to tell you the third instance before I was like, hey, God, you know, but I was in my car, after the third time. And I'm just like, I broke down the tears, man. I couldn't deal with it anymore.

I'm just like, there was like a presence in the car that just wanted me to, you know, wanted me to end it all. You know, make me end it all. And I was just like in tears. And there was just darkness in the car. And it was like something was just, you know, right there. But anyway, the third thing that happened was,

I'm asleep again on my bed. And this time I'm facing, I'm laying on my right side. Yeah, so I'm facing towards where my chair is normally at. Well, it was always that. And again, I had woken up from a bad dream. And I opened my eyes and this is the hardest one right here. I open my eyes and sitting in my chair.

And for some reason, my room was much darker this time than any other time. And sitting in my chair and I don't know. Have you ever had a, I don't know if you've ever been around goats, but have you ever been around one that's kind of looking at you, that one eye and he's just kind of locked in on you with that one eye? No, I have, no, I can't say I have, man. It's creepy whenever they just kind of, instead of cocking his head up, it was cocking his head down, but it's just like that.

You're going to get around a goat, and you're on one side, and just watch. Oh, you said goat. One eye. Yeah, go. Oh, I think they say ghost. No, no, a goat. I got you. Yeah, I know what you mean. My mother-in-law used to own goats.

Yes, I know what you mean. Yeah. So you know that how they look at you with that one eye. And then it seems like they got a grimace on the, well, this is what was staring at me, sitting in my chair looking about two feet away from me. And it had a white face and then it had some kind of blue, I don't know. I hate to call it tribal because it looked more like it was a rectangular type shape than any tribal thing. But anyway, it had this blue splash on the one side there.

and it was looking down at me and his head was kind of cocked. His head was kind of cocked at, looks like to see me with the one eye, and he was just, he was just beamed in on me, man, and he had that little smirk on his face, like, that's it. You know, this is it. And I don't know what exactly, I don't know why that happened. I mean, there's other things, too,

and the whole thing about drugs being a doorway, believe me, it is. I was a, and I, the thing is, I didn't like do illegal drugs or anything, but I take stuff to help me sleep, and, you know, I've been through the whole sleep paralysis thing. That's why I didn't even mention it. I know what sleep paralysis is, and I've experienced it before a long time ago. But I take stuff to help me sleep, and sometimes I don't even do the job because, like said, mine, I get bad dreams, and then I'm instantly aware. I know when I'm awake and when I'm asleep, and I promise you, sure as I'm standing here, man, that that thing was just sitting in my chair looking at me like, you know, it's your ass now.

And after I saw that, man, I mean, I didn't really show no fear. I kind of opened my eyes, saw it, and I didn't want to believe it because the whole situation, me by myself in my room, pitch black, and I got this thing. And so I just closed my eyes and, you know, went back to sleep and hope for the best. But the next day or the day after that, I was on my way home from work in my car. And it's just like this overpowering darkness that entered the car. And it was like, you know, you got the gun right there. Just do it. What are you? You know, just do it.

Get it old with already. And I'm like, and that's when I broke down, man. And I just broke down and it was like, God, hey, you know, help me out here. And the thing was, this happened like three times. And from that night on, up until here recently, which I need to start doing again, from that night on, man, I'm on my knees there. Instead of my Bible being way at the other end of my dresser beside. I've always had it on my bed beside me, not really beside me, but at the other side of my nightstand.

And I got a cross hanging over the bed. And, you know, I believe all that stuff. I move my Bible closer back to my hand, back to me. And I put a wooden cross on top of my Bible there. It was all in hands reach. And, you know, from that night on for the longest, well, I don't know, I said a long time, it's been on a few months. But, man, whenever just things don't feel right in the room, well, first of all, I always

got on my knees and prayed before I went to bed. And then I always had the cross in my hand there. And, you know, I started praying to God and was like, hey, you know, this was bigger than me. Can you help me out here? And, you know, things have seen the, you know, gotten. back to normal. And I don't know if talking about it, a good thing or not. So I was kind of hesitant. I'm, you know, I was thinking today, man, should I, you know, should I do this or not? You know, tell you about this stuff because, you know, I don't want this stuff coming back, you know?

You know what I mean? Yeah, I understand. And, you know, I'm not like, you know, I know it all with any of this stuff. But I do find that these types of things have really as much power as you, you want to give it as you allow it. Like, I mean, obviously, you don't want that there. It came in. It infiltrated your life. But, I mean, I don't think personally, I don't think talking about it is so dangerous. Now, I've had several people tell me that when they talk about, things seem to act up

and stuff. But, you know, for the most part, I haven't really had that experience. And the fact that you are, you know, pursuing. God through as a solution here. I think that's a big plus for you. I mean, that's my own personal theological convictions coming through and stuff, but I think that that's a big help there for you. But with this experience that you had, man, one of the things you said early on and it caught my ear was that you said when you were describing the first experience, at some point you said snout. And then right after that, you mentioned about how you were having were

nightmares. Do you think the two are correlated? No, I think before I seen the... Okay, I didn't catch the... I don't know what you said before werewolves, but if I heard you're right, I think you might have it backwards. I was having this werewolf dream and then I woke up and saw this thing.

You know, kind of exiting towards the door between the bed and the tanning bed there. And you described it though as having a snout, didn't you? Well, it was kind of weird, okay? You can make... out the front arm just kind of kind of out in front of it kind of half-heartedly like it couldn't put it it all the way down to its side for some reason and you could see that it didn't have hands it had the it had the goat foot or hoof or cloven's foot or whatever you want to call it okay um and the head was more like an okay you pick a

triangle and you make one side longer than the other and don't make it like so pointy at the at the top side where it's longer and then you turn it on its side and then you put you put you put two things coming out from the back of its head there. And that's basically what I saw. And that's why I was like so hard. I'm like, what the world did I see? It didn't make sense, man. A triangular type head, you know, with two things sticking out of top.

And, you know, the body, of course, I could see it. It was, like I said, man, I never knew what black, darker than the dark meant until that night. And this was all just recently, Matt. I think it was probably, what, three, four, no, it wasn't four months. Three months ago, something like that. when I first contacted you about this stuff. And it was that had just,

all this stuff had recently happened like not probably two or three weeks afterwards when I had like started getting in touch with God again and saying, hey, I can't do this. I need your help here. You know, um, please let your presence fill this room.

Whatever it has to happen. Get this stuff out of my life. That's what I want. And, uh, so yeah, man, that's what took me so long to realize,

all that day and then finally it clicked to me what it was. You know, it was an upright. I don't know what the bottom half looked like. And it wasn't really that big. I mean, it was probably four feet tall, maybe. And I could see it was from like it's mid-ways down. I didn't know what the legs looked like. Or even if it had legs because it looked like it was gliding.

It didn't look like it was walking. It looked like it was gliding. And his front legs were like straight out in front. Like, I don't know, man, then had this triangular looking head that really didn't match a goat head in the end of sense, you know, but that's what it was, man. And then I had, I'll tell you about the dream. And why this is relevant, I don't know, but I was having a dream. And I remember the dream vividly because of what I saw before I woke up or after I woke up. I was sitting there staring at a werewolf.

No, it was actually just a plain wolf, okay? And it looked like a wolf that was standing up on its leg, looking at me. Okay? And then a split second after it started, well, a split second, I don't know how long he was, but that's what it's felt like. It started to transform it to a more demonic version of his belt. You know, the muscle started getting bigger. You know, the hair started getting a little bit different.

It started having a more sinister look on his face. you know, the teeth started coming out and everything. And then I woke up a split second later. And then when I woke up, that's what I was looking at, not the go, not the werewolves, but now I consider a goat, man. That's all it could have been, you know. And then it was verified the two following encounters. And the third one is the one that really drew at home.

When I was walking out in my bathroom and this thing, and I closed my eyes there for a second, kind of like I was blinking regularly, and it was just, and it was like in my face. It looked like it had ran up and got my face and screaming at me. You know,

there was no sound, obviously, because this was all in my mind's eye, because my eyes are closed, and I'm just like, whoa, it kind of caught me out of guard there. I didn't really step back, but I know I stopped and it was like, move my head back a little bit

because it looked like it just came running up from out of black and just right there in both eyes where it was like, was head back to me and it was head to head with my forehead with his forehead and both eyes are glaring at me. The nostrils were flared and his mouth was wide open and you could tell he was screaming. I don't know what he was screaming, but you could tell he was screaming at me like, I don't always get to scare me.

I'm assuming that's what it was because I guess the more scared you get, the more from what I hear, the more power they get. The more scared you are, the more it feeds them. So I'm assuming that's what it was and I just was like, wow, where in the world did that come from. I had never had that happened in my life. You know? And so, I mean, I, and then, you know, I started hearing, I don't know if it's because I started

listening to more and more shows after I heard yours, but, you know, it seems like bathroomettes being popped up everywhere, you know. I haven't looked up a picture of a bathroom that after all this, and the shadow thing I saw, the darker than dark shadow thing, that looked like, except for it didn't have hands. But the way the head

the horns just come straight up out of the head. That's what, you know, it reminded me of. But whenever the thing that confronted me as I was walking out my bathroom, when my eyes were shut, that one, its horns had curled over, actually. And so there was a little difference there. And then the one that was in the chair looking at, I mean, man, if I would have got up,

I'm sure, it's like I could have punched it in the face if I wanted to. But I was just like, oh, my God, I'm awake. my sleep medicine's kind of working on me here. I'm just going to go back to sleep and hope I didn't see what I just saw. But it was there, man. I promise it was there. If I wanted to, I could have probably kicked on the light or jumped out of bed and put the swing at it and something would have connected. That's how real it was.

And I was just like, in the next day, I'm like, man, we're in this comfort. And, you know, the funny thing is, it's like it singled me out. I don't know if it's because I cut my kids off from. from the game or my daughter she's in the Harry Potter crapp. She's a little older. And there's a couple other things. And my wife would bring home people's furniture. And she brought home a mirror.

And it's been sitting in our garage forever. And I noticed the back of the mirror. It looks like one of the screws that's been taken out. Actually, it was just taken out a little bit. And I never did open the mirror. But after that night, are you there? Yeah, I'm here. After that night, after that final night,

I'm like, look, get that mirror out of this house. I don't want it anymore here because it was just a real creepy mirror to be around. Even though I stayed in the garage between two refrigerators, I was like, get it out of the house and don't be bringing home. Nobody's used crap anymore. So I don't know where this thing. I don't know where this thing come from. But, you know, if it wasn't my daughter doing, my daughter, my oldest daughter,

at the time she was 17. So, I mean, she pretty much, you know, does, did her own thing, and she was in that Harry Potter and all this other stuff. And, of course, they don't have game. And then my wife brings home people's crap in the one, and the mirrors. For some reason, man, me and me, I just, I don't like mirrors at all. I do not like them whatsoever. I will not stand in a room with a mirror and the lights off.

I want to even leave my bathroom door open with the mirror. Because there's a mirror in there. I shut the bathroom door. But I don't know. I don't know what got it into the house, man, or what allowed it to bank it had some kind of authority to be that brave, to be that bold to sit there in my chair and watch me while I'm sleeping, you know? And then knowing it's fixing it's fixing to wake me up for whatever reason

or however it does it, and I open my eyes and there it is, man, just sitting there looking at me. And I'm just like, what in the world is going on? And then, like, a few nights later, I was on my way home. That's when I got in the whole car thing. And, like, I felt like I was being oppressed and crushed, and the darkness was around me, and I couldn't shake it no matter what. And, you know, I'm not the most religious guy in the world,

but I do believe in Christ and what he did and all that. And without a doubt, I believe that. And so I just turn it out again. and I'm just like, you know, help me out because there's been several things in my life that, I don't want to say this, that I know God turned it into his glory. My pain became his glory, if you know what I mean. Sure. And there's been several things. I mean, I had been clinically dead once when I was a child.

I've been dropped in swimming pool almost ground, and I could get into a story. That's the story in itself, even though it was a brief story. story is still a story in itself. Just all kind of things in my life, man, that, you know, that's happened to me. And I'm just, you know, I'm trying to figure out what's going on. And I needed God again and, you know, I haven't had no problem since then. I don't get these, I don't get these weird thoughts in my head anymore. I don't get these weird images in my head anymore.

It's just everything cleared up, you know, whenever I called upon the Lord that night when I, in the car and then you know, I got home and I put the Bible right now. I started reading the Bible game, you know. I just didn't put it there. I did because of the power. It made me feel I had. And I put the cross there. And there were several nights, man, where I held that cross on my hand.

My wife wasn't sleeping back in the bedroom for whatever reason. And it was just me. And I would, you know, I'd start to feel, you know, like, man, there's a presence here again. So I grabbed the cross. And, of course, I always got my gun under my pillow now. you know, I thought that's going to do any good. But I guarantee if my gun would have been in a cell at night, and I guarantee I could have pulled a bullet in the thing.

I don't know if it would have done any good, but it was that real, man. I could have shot the thing. Well, you know, it's funny that you say that because, you know, I referenced this before on the show over on Sasquatch Chronicles. West did a show where this guy described killing this thing, and what he described was a Baphomet. Like, he straight up described to Baphomet, and then when he went back, it was gone.

And so it makes you wonder like, like, because I mean, up to this, up to that point, I'm thinking Baph Met, demonic entity, things like that, can't be shot, all that. And then that happens. And it makes you wonder, okay, that's a curveball. What is going on here, you know? So it's definitely something where you, when you just say that it seems so real, it seemed physical like you could hit it upside the head with the bat or something like that, it makes sense. I've been hearing more and more different stories like that. And like you said earlier,

it does seem like Baphimet is starting to pop up more and more throughout people's stories online. You see it popping up in articles. I see it in pop culture all the time. Now, in fact, just today, just today, I was driving home from work and I was behind an SUV. They had a round sticker on the back of their windshield or the back window of their SUV. And it was a, it was a Baphomet. It was a Baffamette sticker on the back of their SUV. And I've seen these stickers all over this area. The sticker is for a Taekwondo place where I guess they train and stuff like that and they teach people how to do Taekwondo. But their logo is a Bafamette. And I've seen this several times. And I finally was in a position where I see it and I was at a

red light where I could actually take a picture of it. And I took a picture of it. I'll post it online maybe, you know, in the show notes here and stuff, but it's definitely something that's popping up more and more. It got me thinking how I just see it popping up more and more, and then I see it on my Xbox one again after I said, get rid of that game. And since we paid for it and we downloaded it, you know, I tried looking for a way to delete it on my Xbox one.

I couldn't find it. All I could do was all I found was a window that said hide game. So that's what I did. But it just seemed like, I don't know, know, man, is, and I really don't want to get into the end-time thing. It just feels like, God's like, hey, this is what's going down, make up your mind. You know what I mean? That's what it feels like to me. It just feels like, you know, God's like, hey, I ain't going to call too many more times. If this is what it takes for you to open your eyes, hey, this is what's

going to happen to you. And I don't know if that's the case. It's just a feeling. I'm not saying there's any concrete proof in any of that stuff. But, you know, over my life, God has many things, many things. That my, he turned my pain into his glory. And, you know, even now I still like, hey, God, thanks a lot, you know. I know that time was really bad, but hey, you know what? This is what I got out of it. And eventually, you know, he turned my pain and the praise to him and how he does it.

I don't know, but he does. sure there's there's there's many testimonies like that uh where you know god takes a bad situation turns it for good uh you know i'm not like i said earlier i'm not an expert on any of this stuff and i i hear people's stories i try to draw similarities from story to story uh but you know i don't know what i'm about to say is not a hundred percent certain certain uh but it does make sense in my mind that that game, if that game was as bad as you're saying, it seems like that would be something that would invite issues into your home. And if you're the one to say to the family, cut it, we're done, you're not doing that no more.

Maybe whatever was invited at a home would target you. You know, it just does make sense to me. It does. I don't know if it makes sense to anybody else. But for me, it makes sense. Yeah, it kind of makes sense to me too. I just wish I knew that was the cause. You know, I want to find the root cause so I can pluck it out and get rid of as soon as possible.

And I've taken steps and maybe some of them might seem silly, but between the mirror that my wife had brought home not too long ago. Or actually, it's been a while I've been sitting there between two refrigerators for a year. Or the game, which I'm kind of getting that's the thing, that thing going on because that game, I'd never, I mean, I'd seen them play this game, but I'd never seen the cover of this game. and then the other day when my son turned it on and he logged on to his stuff so he could play so he could play his game on the Xbox one instead of the 360 out there I said there it was again and this face the goat's face was right there in my face it had the upturned little smirk on its face and one of his eyes was kind of more visible than the other and it was a white color and I'm just like oh my god there it is what in the world you know I'm just like no this

ain't happening again there's no way it's happening again. And I tell you, man, you should Google that game. I looked it up, as a matter of fact, all I got is my iPhone right now. My computer took a dump on me. I had looked it up and the game is actually, I'm not sure. I know I read who marketed it, but I couldn't remember it. But the game is actually about your character, which you're the goat and sacrificing human

people to Satan. And then if you search around on the game, if you actually ever play the game and you look long enough, I guarantee you that you'll find that big red pinagram right there. It's off in the woods kind of next to a cliff where, you know, how games put a cliff or something right there, and you can't go no further. And you've got to get to that point. And then it's right there. It was playing the day, man.

And I saw it. I'm like, no, that's it. No more. I told my wife, right? They were all sitting there. I'm like, that's it. Turn the game off. You're not playing it anymore.

I don't care what it's about. And my kids just thought it was funny. like a goat, instead of killing people with it, they take the goat and make it do some crazy stuff. And then you get this real theatrical death that the goat takes place. I mean, he's flying 100 feet through the air and tossing and turning and all kind of crazy stuff. Okay. But, and I'm thinking, okay, funny games, whatever. Actually, you know, when I first saw him playing, I saw the goat run through the street,

I'm like, you know what, for some reason, that's really creepy. But I never gave it a second thought after that until it was a couple days later I saw him. All-planet in the front living room. I'm the 360. I'm like, okay. And I saw the Pentegram. I'm like, okay, I knew this game was creepy about something. I didn't know what, but now I know that's it, no more.

And yeah, if you Google it, man, you'll see it. And the last thing, I don't know how much more you want to get in here. But the last really, the thing that is kind of comical, I guess, in a way, or maybe it was just dead set on me. I don't know. I have three mastiff. Two of them are males that still got there. They still got their sacks hanging

And both of them are pushing 200 pounds each And one of them sleeps on the bed with me Oh, he did before my wife started sleeping back in the bed I don't know which I like better honestly But I'm kidding And you know, the dogs never clued into it I don't, I'm just like And that's one of the comforts I've had is sleeping in my bed

Knowing there's a 200 pound dog at my feet right there You know, I'm thinking hey, you know When all this is going on And I'm like having these experiences before they finally came to asking God to step up for me or help me out here. I'm like, you know, what's up with you dogs? Come on. I feel stuff in this room.

You know, what? We're just, why aren't y'all clueling me out? And none of them would put me in any of it, you know? You know, they would lay there and I'd see this stuff and the dog would be down on my feet soaring, you know? I'm just like, got to be kidding me. What do I got you dogs for? You know, and that's, I find that comical, but it was, I'm still kind of upset. said of my dolls with that, but, you know, I thought it was a little weird that, you know,

and you always hear the stories about dolls or even like my horse clued in on the creature there. You know, my dogs didn't clue on anything, clue in on anything. And it was physically in my room, you know, with a physical shape. And it was, it was funny. It was, it was really dark in my room. The last time I thought was sitting in my chair and just locked in on me. Um, and I'm just like, Like, and it was really weird.

I mean, you could, I could see the face. I could see the upturned lip. I could see the one eye locked in on me. And then I could see kind of the rest of his head. But the further back and the further down, I wanted to look. I thought I even saw a hand or an arm. Not really a hand, I guess. Maybe an arm.

Maybe it had a hand. It showed a hand this time. I don't know. But one of one was kind of on the arm of my chair there. And it was kind of kicked back looking at me. But everything else is just so black. and dark. And I don't know if it's because my eyes haven't adjusted or something, because like I said, I had just woken up and trust me, I know I have experienced sleep paralysis and it was not that.

I know I've been taking my medicine long enough that I know what's dream and what's not, what's when I'm awake and when I'm not, because trust me, even my medicine right now doesn't feel like it helps me get any sleep. So I'm, you know, I got rid of some really bad medicine I was taken. I'll tell you that much. Then I had neck surgery. and I was on pain medication for, wow, several years. And I had never experienced anything, you know, anything taking it. And then about two years ago, I think it was, maybe a year ago, they switched me to something else.

And even then, nothing, nothing, nothing. And then it just seemed like every since that day, I called my kids out on that game. and, you know, I just, I don't know, everything started going downhill, man. I couldn't. The biggest, the most frustrating thing was I'd set something down and I'd turn around and it would fall. Anything I did. And there's, I'd be carrying something in my hand and it would just slip out of my hand and it was glass.

It would shatter. Or make a big mess, whatever it was, man. I'm just like, what in the world is going on? And I'm thinking dry hands. So I even start lotion and, man, it just, it didn't stop, man. And it drove me up a wall, man. I know it sounds real minuscule about, hey, you know, you're dropping things or set something down and it falls.

Or I know it probably sounds minuscule and nothing. But to me, it was a frustrating thing. And it just got worse and worse and worse. Every time I set something down, it turned my back. and it was fall. And I have other stories about being haunted, too, that I don't know if you want to hear tonight, but definitely, and it evolved across a long time ago. But anyway, so, yeah, man, that's some of my life story.

I hope we got it all where you, it was somewhat manageable, readable, or whatever. Yeah, absolutely. Listen, Charles, I think what you have experienced in your home is something that you know, a lot of people experienced throughout their life. I mean, I'm not saying everybody does, but it's definitely something that the more I'm doing this stuff, the more I realize that these things aren't as uncommon as people would like to think. And so, just to, I don't know if this is going to make you feel better or not, but one of the listeners commented, you know, because there's a chat room going, and he said that he knew about that

game and it's a messed up game. So you're not alone in that feeling of that game you know, giving you the creeps or anything like that. So I definitely think that it's something that maybe you did the right thing, you know, by

getting rid of it, getting it out of the house, telling people to stop playing with it. And hopefully things, you know, start turning up for you here in the future. Yeah, yeah. I mean, like I said, that was I don't know, it was probably close to a year ago that I saw maybe a little bit more that I saw I'm playing that game so that's it no more.

I saw what I saw on the game and I told my wife, she was sitting right there and I looked, look, she looked up and I said, that's it. They don't play this game anymore. And on the 360, I'm pretty sure it's probably a little bit easier to erase, but on my Xbox one, man, I couldn't get rid of it. All I could do was hide it. I don't know what to do, man. And it just seems like come to think of it now, man, that everything started going bad. time that I was like, hey, no more of this game. I don't care what, because I might not be, I might not walk around the Bible in my hand. I might not go to church like I should. I might not pray like I should. But, man, I just knew that, hey, just no more in the story.

You're not doing it. I better not catch you playing it. And I don't know, maybe that was some, I'm hoping maybe that was a gateway. And I can shut the door on this chapter and be done with it because, you know, just the physical or the physical, the mental stress between, and, you know, why is it that I keep coming back to the same thing of things falling whenever I set them down? Why? I don't understand.

Why that I make a big deal about that. Maybe it seems kind of ludicrous. I don't know. That's a thing. But, you know, there's other thing. that, you know, I've had bad luck with. I've never been a lucky person, but these past couple years, especially this last, 2017,

just seemed like it was horrible, man. And it felt like some of, actually some of it did carry over in 2018, you know, and I just, it finally got me to a point where I got to, like I said, man, call on God, I couldn't do it. The whole idea of, you know, dropping things a lot, things falling over, that's not an uncommon thing. I mean, I'm not saying that specifically, but it's just,

it's a very common thing for people to notice that things are falling over. And you just started noticing it happening more and more. You know, maybe you have like, you know, boxes that were sitting against a wall for two weeks straight and all of a sudden, they just all topple over or the little things, right?

But once you start connecting the dots and you start seeing it happen more and more consistently, that's when you kind of raise an eyebrow to it. And then on top of that, right around that same time, having the experiences that you had, I can totally understand why you feel that way. Now, is it related? I don't know. But I can understand why you feel like that personally.

So it's definitely something going on there, man. And I just think that you trying to get rid of the game the best you could was a good move. So, you know, on that note, Charles, I appreciate you coming on and sharing this story. And, you know, if you have more to share stuff, maybe we can have you come back for a patron's only show where people can call into the show and ask you questions themselves and things like that, you know? Yeah, man, well, I hope it was that good for you. I mean, to me, it sounds kind of like, hmm, why would you want to talk to you in first? Because I go on, man, and sometimes I don't even make sense to myself. I'm sure it was hard for anybody who might be.

be listening or you to say, hey, man, this guy isn't making sense half the time. But, you know, that's the way I am. That's the way I talk. No, Charles, I'll tell you, man, like, you've been a delight to talk to. And there's been several times you would say something during the interview. And I had my mic muted it. And I would just start laughing because, like, when you talked about your dog's sack, I'm like, come on.

I was just rolling. So, no, it's been a pleasure, Charles. And I appreciate talking you, man. All right, man. All right. Take care. Yeah. Well, that's the show, buddy.

And I want to let you know that today's outro music is brought to you by a rap, group called Destiny Lab and the song is called Paranormal Species. I hope you enjoy it. Take care, stay safe, and remember the truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off. Bye. This is in the Chupacabra. Remind me. I just want to remind you. No, this is something huge. This is something that reminds me of the Mothman stories of Point Pleasant and how the Mop Man has scared the living daylights on it because when I'm in the dark, I wouldn't want two big red

eyes staring at me from the window, tapping on the window, and then I look out and I see something hansched over with big wings or a flying demon or something. I don't want that anywhere near me. What are these creatures that are so confounders from the moth man to the chupacabras, the big foot, there's some call a Sasquatch legendary icons like monster mascots, the Loch Ness monster, the Jersey devil creepy shadow people that'll make you tremble paranormal species on every level when they're unleashed it's like transcendental we haven't even started with the alien question not to mention the fact they meet expectations observer effect it's that spooky action an electron photon quantum reaction so often they appear as what people ums it's how the from which

That you're from which to choose from Hovering like vultures with black eyed vision Scavenging on car and every superstition Tapped in the tune division Flipped into a virtual reality Dimensions rip it! What are these creatures that so confound us from Mothman And to the trooper come

Creepy Shadow people Sutter with their schemes these are spiritual beings Inner dimensional with three dimensional teams Like a genie in a bottle that's fulfilling your dreams Raise your wishes distor with your soul are part of the berries in the hell. Ignize the species by the shape of their lies. Imprisoned in chains. Briefie shadow, peepy, she's on them.

When I'm looking into subjects that really scare me, you have to go back far. To dig up some of the scariest creatures, the scariest incidences of sightings and appearances. I mean, you know, we all know, you know, man has had his encounters with fallen angels.
