Cryptid Sightings UK with Colin Keelty | EP: 377

Join us for an in-depth exploration of the United Kingdom’s most compelling cryptozoological mysteries and unexplained phenomena with Colin Keelty — an experienced cryptozoologist, field researcher, and lifelong eyewitness to the unknown.From an early age, Colin’s path has been shaped by the extraordinary. At just 14, he encountered a hyena-like creature in the British countryside — an animal not recognized by science as native to the UK, yet one that he was far from alone in reporting. Years later, in October 1990 under a full moon, he had a harrowing encounter with a bipedal, emaciated, canine-like entity. These and other unsettling sightings — including possible Dogman and Bigfoot encounters — sparked a 30-year quest to understand the strange beings that inhabit Britain’s remote landscapes.In this episode, Colin delves deep into the UK’s cryptid lore, examining reports of elusive “alien big cats” linked to livestock mutilations, the British Bigfoot (known in folklore as the Woodwose or wildman), and the rising number of Dogman sightings. He also explores anomalous creatures said to roam ancient woodlands, moors, and forgotten trails. Drawing on eyewitness testimony, historical context, and his own extensive field research, Colin explains why the United Kingdom’s rich folklore and long history of strange encounters make it a unique hotspot for cryptozoological investigation.The conversation ventures beyond flesh-and-blood cryptids into the realm of the supernatural. Colin shares profound paranormal experiences from some of Britain’s most haunted forests — including sightings of floating heads, the unnerving feeling of being surrounded by invisible presences, and unsettling entities that followed him home. He also discusses encounters tied to fairy lore and other phenomena that blur the boundaries between cryptozoology, the paranormal, and potentially interdimensional realities.Whether you’re a dedicated cryptid researcher, a folklore enthusiast, or simply intrigued by the unknown, this episode delivers gripping firsthand accounts, thoughtful analysis, and a rare personal perspective on one man’s decades-long pursuit of Britain’s hidden mysteries.Are Dogman sightings connected to ancient werewolf legends? Could the UK be home to its own elusive Sasquatch-like relatives? And how thin is the veil between the natural and the supernatural?
