A Veteran’s Late-Night Bigfoot Encounter on a Texas Highway | Thought It Was A Man Until It Stood Up

from SASQUATCH THEORY · host SASQUATCH THEORY

In this episode, I’m joined by Kevin, a military veteran from East Texas who shares a chilling late-night encounter that occurred in October 2022. While driving a transportation route near Port Arthur, Texas, during light rain and overcast conditions, Kevin came around a bend on State Highway 96 and saw what he initially believed was a man standing near the road. As he got closer, he realized what he was seeing was anything but human. The figure stood over eight feet tall, extremely thin, with unusually wide shoulders. It was crouched low before standing up and quickly moving into the woods as Kevin passed. After pulling over to collect himself, Kevin stepped out of his vehicle and noticed a strong, musky odor similar to a wet dog. While scanning the tree line with a flashlight, he heard large branches snapping nearby, convincing him to leave the area immediately. Kevin believes this was a real, flesh-and-blood creature and not a myth or legend. He also shares that others in the region have reported similar encounters with unknown beings. This is a grounded, firsthand account from someone who never expected to experience something like this — and one that raises serious questions about what may be roaming the forests of East Texas.

The issues being decided in the halls of government every day have real and lasting impact on all our lives, but discussing politics is extremely unpleasant. It is very difficult today to have a calm, adult conversation about politics. Are the people screaming on TV, the radio, and online really who “we” are? Are they really representative of mainstream America or are they just really aggressive and loud? I believe the adults just got tired of it and walked away, but their silence is not consent. This podcast is the test of that theory.
