The most talked-about news story involved a Pennsylvania driver who reported seeing a hulking, fur-covered creature cross the highway. Multiple outlets including Coast to Coast AM and News Radio WILM ran features on the alleged sighting, which has quickly fueled renewed debate and thousands of online comments. Social media hashtag campaigns like #BigfootSighting spiked on Thursday as fans and skeptics weighed in, making Bigfoot a top trending topic in cryptid circles. While local authorities have yet to confirm any physical evidence, the story was prominent enough that it dominated the week’s “Weird News” roundups and memes are circulating everywhere.

For pop culture fans, Small Town Monsters rolled out the documentary “The Siege of Ape Canyon,” streaming November 11.
