Tonight, Brian shares the never-before-told story of Thomas, a fur trapper whose life was forever changed after a terrifying encounter with sasquatch in the remote Canadian wilderness during February 1987. This first-hand account challenges everything we think we know about these mysterious creatures. What Mercer experienced reveals them to be intelligent, communicative, and potentially dangerous beings with complex social structures and territorial behaviors. His haunting experience raises profound questions about what these creatures truly are and our responsibility toward them.The story begins as Thomas, a third-generation fur trapper, flies his bush plane to his remote family cabin in the Northwest Territories to begin his winter trapping season. Almost immediately upon arrival, Mercer discovers massive, human-like footprints circling his cabin—nearly 20 inches long with a stride length twice that of a human.Over the following days, Mercer encounters increasingly bizarre evidence: traps carefully disarmed with ritualistic arrangements of objects nearby, complex vocal communications between multiple creatures echoing through the forest, and deliberate attempts to test his cabin's defenses through systematic tapping and probing of the structure.Most chilling of all, the creatures attempt direct communication.First through arrangements of natural objects in geometric patterns, then through mimicked human speech—even speaking Mercer's name and referring to his deceased father. In broken English, they suggest they need an "alliance" against other humans hunting them, hinting at a government or private organization aware of their existence.When Mercer attempts to escape in his plane, he's forced to shoot one of the creatures that charges him from behind. In a moment that has haunted him for decades, the wounded sasquatch looks him in the eye and asks simply, "Why?"In the thirty years since this encounter, Mercer has dedicated his life to sasquatch research, building one of the most comprehensive private databases of encounters in North America.Through his research, he discovered another harrowing account from the Olympic Peninsula, where a logging crew's encounter ended in a gruesome death—evidence that these beings aren't always the gentle forest giants of popular imagination.We should note that this episode contains descriptions of violence and disturbing content that may not be suitable for all listeners. Discretion is advised.Thomas Mercer, whose name has been changed at his request, was 25 years old during his encounter in 1987. Now in his sixties, he's spent decades researching similar encounters while maintaining his anonymity. This marks the first time he's shared his complete story publicly.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

In this episode, Fred shares two intense encounters from the Bristol Bay area in Alaska. Kelly's story from the early 1960s recounts a frightening run-in with what her cousin called a 'Harry man' while berry-picking near Lake NCA and Lake Beverly. This vivid narrative details their initial playful adventure turning into a nightmare as they come across the creature hunting a caribou. The second story, from Marty in 1995, describes his and his friend Lewis's eerie experience while on a fishing trip near Mount Tick Chick. After hearing unsettling whoops and strange noises, they are confronted by a large, humanoid figure. Marty's account delves into their attempts to stay safe and their ultimate retreat to their plane. Both stories highlight the mysterious and potentially dangerous presence of unknown beings in the Alaskan wilderness.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AM00:00 Greetings from Alaska 00:04 Kelly's Story Begins 00:45 The Picnic and Berry Picking 02:59 A Strange Encounter 05:55 The Harry Man Revealed 11:06 Panic and Escape 13:51 Reuniting at the Beach 18:07 Wrapping Up the Beach Encounter 19:39 Marty's Aviation Adventure Begins 21:15 Fishing Trip Takes a Turn 23:35 First Signs of Trouble 25:05 A Night of Unsettling Encounters 30:11 Deciding to Retreat 36:20 Morning After and Departure 38:03 Final Thoughts and FarewellBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

In this episode, we take you deep into the woods of Murphy, North Carolina—just before a night hike during a recent expedition. As the sun dipped behind the mountains and the forest began to settle into its nighttime rhythm, we gathered near an old concrete pillar to hear a story that stopped us in our tracks.Kenny, a quiet and grounded voice in the group, shared an experience he and his son had just yards from where we stood. Late one night, they came face-to-face with something massive, strange, and completely out of place. It was nearly invisible until they were almost on top of it—its shape and presence only registering when it was far too close for comfort.In this raw, on-location recording, Kenny walks us through that night: the moment of the sighting, the unsettling details of the creature’s appearance, and what he discovered afterward. Other witnesses. Unexplained lights in the sky. Patterns that point to something lurking in these mountains—something that doesn’t want to be seen.This episode captures the start of our night hike and the kind of story you only hear when the campfire’s burning low and the forest feels like it’s listening in.Whether you’re a skeptic, believer, or somewhere in between, one thing’s for sure—this one stays with you.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

In today's special storytelling episode, I'm thrilled to share an original tale I've created called "The Unlikely Guardians:  Bigfoot Saves Easter. This heartwarming adventure follows Bartholomew, the last Sasquatch of the Pacific Northwest, whose carefully isolated life is upended when he discovers a set of unusual footprints in the late winter snow. Following them leads to an encounter with none other than Edmund Cottontail, the Easter Bunny himself, who is in desperate need of help. The magical Egg of Renewal has been stolen by Jack Frost, threatening to trap the world in endless winter and prevent Easter from happening at all.What follows is a journey across magical landscapes as these natural opposites—a reclusive wilderness dweller and the embodiment of spring celebration—form an unlikely alliance. Their adventure takes them through ancient forests, across frozen plains, and eventually to the edge of reality itself as they confront not just Jack Frost but the shadowy powers manipulating him. Throughout their quest, Bart and Edmund discover that their differences actually create a perfect harmony when combined with Jack's winter magic, forming a balanced force capable of restoring nature's cycles.The story explores how friendship can emerge in the most unexpected places, and how the balance between wilderness, winter, and renewal is essential for the natural world to flourish. We witness Bart's transformation from a solitary observer who has hidden from the world for centuries into someone who finds purpose in connection and community. It's a modern fairy tale about how isolation ends when we open ourselves to new possibilities and how seemingly opposite forces can unite for a greater purpose.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
