an angel. Rules of some of us seek answers
to the existence of crypts and the unexpressed, join us as we venture and accepted
boundaries. Welcome to our night, I think you're hey
folks, good evening and welcome to another episode of Fans and Monsters
Personal reports where I narrate and discuss some decrypted and unexplained sightings and encounters submitted to fans and monsters and to the

I do have the buy me a coffee link down below. So
uh, thanks for your consideration. So, uh, if you are in the chat
do me a favor and hold your question. I mean, hold post in your question until after I'm done with the
uh, the last, um, presentation I'll give you a little bit of a heads up when I start that one up
So, um, and, and also post in all caps so I can see it
It's much appreciated. So tonight, the first, your first account was, was
an something I received back in May of 2012. Uh it was forwarded by a guy by the name
of John. Uh he is a retired federal employee who lives in northern Nevada and who wish to remain anonymous
Now, the story centers around an experience he had while living with his grandfather and
this property where they lived on was in Aleppo Township in Greene County
Pennsylvania. So it's right in the uh southwest corner of the state
but it's an area that's had a lot of, a lot of activity. Now
he didn't want to pinpoint the location but did say he wanted to um wanted me to dedicate this
this to his grandfather, Samuel Hill, who he still considers the most remarkable man he's ever known
Now uh he he John seemed very sincere in my opinion. He uh he decided to come forth with the account after
we he had a rather strange encounter a few months previous to that which he really didn't want to discuss
So uh he did mention and his in the one email that he was 81 years old and I don't know
I I I I don't know if John's still around or not, but um and he's a veteran of the Korean War
He also stated that he fully truly felt that his grandfather's actions were taken in defense of the family
So, uh, he stayed when he was a boy. My mother and I lived with my grandfather
We had a farmhouse in a rural location in Southwest Pennsylvania. My grandfather was a handyman who also worked a small black
smi blacksmith shop in his old barn. Now, my grandmother had died before I was born and my grand
my father had also passed away while serving overseas in the US army
Now, beginning in the summer of 1946 we noticed strange howling sounds coming from the woods that surrounded the property
Now, the activity came at night and was very frightening when the howling came close
The, uh, the sounds didn't seem to bother my grand grandfather though
My mother and I were shaking when, when it would begin. Now
the sounds continued off and on for about a year. But we never noticed any animals and my grandfather and I would hunt for deer
and squirrel in the woods during the colder months, but we never saw signs of an unusual animal activity
So one late afternoon in spring of 1947 I was helping my grandfather in his shop
When I noticed something moving around the edge of the woods, near an area where my grandfather had a few junk cars and other items
It was about 200 ft from our location. But I clearly noticed something or someone moving about
I told my grandfather to look, he walked to the door and lit his pipe and said nothing
Now, after a minute or two, he turned around and got back to work about that time
This thing moved into the woods and disappeared and I couldn't judge how big it was
but it was sort of reminded me of a magazine picture I had seen of a large ape that was said to inhabit the Asian
jungles. Later that evening, I told my mother what I had seen
she was shocked because she knew I, I wouldn't lie to her and that the howling sounds had been closer lately
Also to told her my grandfather is responsible and I pointed the creature out to him
Now, she immediately stood up and walked into the sitting room in order to ask my grandfather what it was
He started to shake his head and slowly said, he started to shake his head slowly and said that he was hoping that we wouldn't
see it because he was worried we would be scared to leave him after assuring him that we'd never leave
him. My mother again insisted that he tell us what the creature was
He looked away, took a deep breath and said, it's a dark walker and said it lived in the woods for many years
He said the native Indians called it stone spirit. And they thought that it was a an evil spirit who would appear
when someone was about to die. Now, the last time he had seen the dark walker was the night before my grandmother had passed
My mother was skeptical of the harbinger death angle, but she says that there was something unnatural nearby
Now, the howling continued each night though, we hadn't seen any signs of this dark walker
Now, one warm evening, we were sitting on the back porch, there were a few howls
but uh, it seemed like the sounds were further away. We were listening to the radio and all at once
my grandfather stood up and looked out towards the barn. He turned to me and said
John, go get my pistol and ammo hurry. Now, I ran into the sitting room and grabbed the 4 55 weely revolver and a handful
of bullets from the old steamer trunk. I handed it to him and watched him load the gun
He then picked up a hatchet and slid in his pants belt
Now both of you get in the house. Now, we were in the kitchen looking through the screen door and watched my grandfather walk slowly
towards the barn. We saw him turn and walk out of sight into the dark
I decided to go grab my shotgun and keep it nearby. And after a minute or so
we heard three gunshots and a blood curling screen emanate from the woods near the barn
We were frozen and wondering if we should go look for my grandfather
A few seconds later, we heard him yell. Stay in the house
Until I come back, I heard the pickup truck stored up. I looked out the
the storage room window and saw my grandfather drive to the back of the barn and park
Several minutes later, he backed up and drove by the side of the house out onto the road
I can see that there was something in the back covered up with a tarp and I was getting late
So my mother told me to go to bed. Now, the next morning I came downstairs and sat beside my grandfather who was reading the
newspaper and drinking a cup of coffee. And my grandmother was sitting
my mother was sitting at the other end of the table staring at my grandfather
Not long later, she said, well, dad, tell me, tell him, excuse me
She said, he said, she said, well, dad, tell him my grandfather put the paper down and looked at me
I killed the dark walker. That was all. He said. My mother told me not to tell anyone and the matter was closed
Now, we never talked about it again. My grandfather lived another 15 years and my mother stayed with him until his dying day
And when I grow older, I I moved away and raised a family. I would return home to visit each summer and never heard another
How now I asked John if he thought the dark walker was a Bigfoot or some Harry Hominid
He responded by saying that he wasn't sure he thought it seen more animal than like
than human and that it moved lower to the ground, at least during a brief time
he observed it. And John mentioned that there were Shawny legends of similar creatures
but he never found a reference to a stone spirit. So, quite frankly
I actually looked into the stone spirit Shawnee legend and it is a true it
it, it, it is a true account. Um It's something that they did consider in what they call p possibly called Bigfoot stone spirits
Um Rosemary and go put this chapter in, put this in one of her books
her book in particular about Greene County. And um she did look into the Stone Spirit story and apparently it
it, it was something that they, it was part of their religion, part of their religion
So, you know, I, I there's not a whole lot out there about it but it
it does, it does show up occasionally. Ok. Uh This next account was one I found
on the internet by someone who I'm, I, well, the person who
who had it on the head or someone I trust someone I, I look up to
So, um when he posted, I, I went ahead and, and reposted on the blog and looked into it a little further
A man named Anthony Cross Root about the time Bigfoot saved him from certain death
Now, the incident occurred in the Florida Everglades after the witness has sustained a severe injury
Now, he states in 1982 I just ended my time in the army
And after getting home, I found nothing had changed that in my experiences in the service left me in a poor mental state
I love the outdoors camping and, you know, especially camping from an early age
So I foolishly decided that camping in the Florida ever glades would give me the peace of mind
I desperately need it. But after three days, I had had enough
I packed up my gear and head it out. Only to realize that had somewhat gotten myself lost
Um, there were about seven hours of daylight left. So I climbed the tallest tree and I saw
you know, to try to get my bearings, the tree was pretty thin and
and just as I saw the way I needed to go, I slipped down and fell about 16 ft
my ankle and my knee were sprained very badly and the pain was nearly unbearable
I limped as far as I po as possible in the direction I needed to go
But soon I couldn't stand the pain anymore. Now finding the path leading out
I sat and started scooting backward as best I could. It was going to
it was hard going on the path which was made of crushed shells and gravel
An hour later, I, I saw a large cat come out of the bush
I slowly started towards me. Much like a house cat does when it sees a pt feeling very vulnerable and unarmed
I knew I was in deep trouble. Each time I scooted backward
it would lunge and sort of flop its front paws. Craziest thing I've ever saw was about 10 yards from me
When from the right came a rock about the size of a softball flying horizontal like a missile
It struck aside the cat's head so hard that aside from literally exploding
it folded around backward and slapped its body. I heard a crunch a soul of blood and missed on impact
I swear every single word is absolutely true. I looked to the right and saw it standing there just inside the tree line
massive dark hair covered except his face. It was dark but easily human like we made kind to eye contact and I felt very calm
to this day. I can't be sure if I heard or just felt safe
but I heard that word inside my head. I looked back at the cat
I thought it made a gurgling sound. I still don't know. But when I turned my back
my savior was gone. I was replaying everything in my mind when I heard a crack at five o'clock as
I turned towards the sound. A long, long thick, excuse me, a long thin stick came flying out of the trees landing a few feet
behind me. I never saw it or heard it at the first moment
But I was positive it through me a crutch to help me get to my feet and make it out
Now, over the years, I had experience to, I had the experience to myself alone knowing I'd be locked up
If I told anyone there are bad apples in every species. But people need to understand they have compassion for us unless attacked
So I thought that was quite an interesting story. Every once in a while, we will come across something where a story where the Bigfoot
will reach out and help someone who's in distress. Um I had another one not long ago that I posted
I might post it next week. So this account I've had for a bit
I decided to dust it off and, and bring it up. A Muskegon Michigan woman relates her encounters with possible men in Black after
several U F S UFO sightings along Lake Michigan. Now these M I B also used an unknown piece of equipment during the investigation
Now I received this back in 2014 and I know it didn't happen much before that
Um So she states high fans and monsters have found your blog while hunting for information on UFO investigations
A coworker told me that some UFO investigators may be alien beings hired by government military
Is this true? I asked because something happened to me in early May 2014 that I cannot explain
Now, I live near Muskegon Michigan, close to Lake Michigan shoreline. Over the past two years
several neighbors and ourselves have witnessed many weird lights above the lake
During the last week of April, there were several strings of red and white lights moving north above the lake
I noticed the lights twice on different nights. Now, the man across the street contacted the UFO group
I don't know the name of the group. He told my son that he had also seen unusual people in his backyard from his bedroom
window late one night and he went out to confront them. They were gone
This happened just two days after he filed a U FA report online
Now, on two consecutive nights, my son and I saw spotlights shining from the shore of uh the lake
there was a field, a narrow route and a burn between our house and the lake
It looked like the spotlights may have been mounted on vehicles. Now
on both nights, this occurred around 11 pm and lasted only for a few minutes
So a few days later, May 4th, about two PM, I was out in the backyard working in my garden
A man dressed in black military garb had entered through my back gate and walked towards me
I stopped what I was doing and waited for him to say something. He wore glasses that were tinted yellow which stood out because everything
else on him was black. He also wore a plain black cap with no insignia
When, um, we got close, he looked directly at me without any expression and asked if I had noticed lights over the lake
and I explained what we have seen and, and other information I thought would help
He wrote everything down in a small notebook, rarely saying a word other than anything else
And when I finished, he asked if I had reported the sightings, I told him the man across the street said he contacted the UFO
group, then asked, but did you contact anyone? I said no. Then I asked him what group he was with
He just looked at me and said, thank you for cooperating. That was very weird because I felt that there was something not right about
this man. I guess it was intuition, but I was creeped out
So on Saturday, May 9th arrive at 10 30 PM, there were more lights coming from the lake shoreline
Now this time, I decided to walk over and see what was going on
My son who was 17, came with me. He was just as curious as me
We walked through the yard across the field. Then over the berm to the shoreline
There were five black land rover like vehicles about 100 yards south along the shoreline
They were also, there were, there were also a dozen or more men in black garb moving about
Now, soon as one of these men noticed us, he shouted there and came running towards us
He had a three ft long light colored baton with a yellow light on the end
two other men came running towards us as well. The man with the baton yelled
you must leave it once. This is a national security operation. My son asked who they were but never received an answer to the question
One of the other men who I believe was a superior said you must leave the area immediately go back to your home
A representative will contact you in a day or two. We agreed and promptly left them
went home. I have not been contacted by anyone since that night
My son and I went back to the shoreline and looked around hoping that we could find something to help us understand what had happened
But there was nothing I believe that they may have discovered something of importance just by the way they reacted to us
Is there any way of finding out who these guys were and what they were doing
Now, I contacted the witness by email explaining that this type of activity isn't uncommon uh after specific sightings
especially those sightings that occurred several times. Now, I guess you'd call it M I B scenario
I guess that's what they were at the time with the light. That was interesting
Um That was the first time I had heard any piece of equipment being present during an encounter in an investigation
So uh after many years, I still haven't received any further information pertaining to this incident
Now, this, um, this other account came from a woman who wrote to me and said
I believe my husband and I saw a hellhound. She states we live in rural northern Idaho and we both hunt
So we know everything about animals. Even in pitch darkness. We don't have normal plumbing
We have to turn on an electric, well, every morning to fill it up
our tank can last us 3 to 4 days. But we like to keep it filled just in case there are other tanks like that
scattered throughout the woods just waiting for someone to buy the land and build a home
Now, uh, we were taking a walk and it got dark. So we went back home
However, on our way home, we saw something not human or animal near one of the wells
it was hunched over like it was eating. We walked clo carefully closer about 20 ft from this thing trying to figure out
what it was too large for a stray dog or a wolf and too small for a bear
But whatever it was, it looked at us with red eyes. I've never been more scared in my life now
My husband is scared of nothing. He but he was scared as well
We took off running. Uh I don't think we ever run that fast before it did chase us for a bit
Then it just disappeared. We got to our house and it was just gone
Now we knew it was behind us when we left the woods, but we couldn't see it
We locked all the windows and doors. That night, we talked to one of the town locals about this thing we saw
he showed us a picture of a hellhound. He told us stories about people meeting the hell hound in the same area
Always near a well road, crossroads of places of death, seeing him once will bring us happiness
seeing it twice will bring us sorrow and seeing it three times will bring us death
I don't know what it was, but Hell Town is the only explanation
Uh You know, these hellhound store is pretty interesting. We do get
I do get one once in a while, uh mostly very few here in the United States
but we do get them. So let's see here. Now this is the like
oh this, this next accounts the last one. So, um if you wanna start posting questions
I'll keep an eye out there. The witness writes after 30 after 30 long years
a Tennessee man and it, this came from secondhand source. After 38 long years
a Tennessee man had finally revealed the reason behind his abrupt decision to stop going into the woods
The man who had chosen to remain anonymous had kept the seeker hidden for decades
But recent events have prompted him to speak out about the harrowing experience that led to his avoidance of the Tennessee wilderness
The tale he tells is one of fierce survival and the brush with unknown that changed his life forever
Now, on this particular day, he packed light and only hiked a couple miles into the smokies
He set up camp and spent a perfect day exploring the area with his fateful can canine companions
As late afternoon arrived, the man was ready to settle down to start a fire to warm up
you know, at the campsite. However, he noticed that his two dogs seem u unusually agitated
Barking and growling is something in distance. Even though he had always managed to keep bears away before they had always managed to keep bears
away before the man couldn't help by feeling a bit concerned. Now as night began to fall
the warm summer developed campsite, prompting the man to leave the tent door open
We settled in for he settled in for the night with his two dogs nestled close to him
He woke too soon. See bright moon lit moonlight emanate, illuminating his camp before he realized the dogs
were making deep low growls and had hackles raised at something. He then noticed another noise like a thrumming gro
coming from outside the tent. Now, the source of the groaning noise became apparent as the man's eyes adjusted to the darkness
He can now see a dark outline that seem to roughly shape
you know, form the shape of a bear lurking uh just beyond the now cold embers of the campfire
The man shouted at the dark looming figure outside the tent. To his surprise
the creature went quiet but then began to grow in size until it was towering over the screen window in the tent
Uh Well, the tent roof, there was a, a screen on top of the tent
So it was looking down onto the tent. The man could hardly believe what he was seeing
He had never encountered anything so massive outside of a zoo. Meanwhile
his two dogs continued to growl, their instincts telling them that this creature was not to be trusted
He could hear the creature inhale a long slow breath before letting out a trumpeting call
It sounded like the mixture of a lion's roar and a human shout
The dogs were terrified into silence and the creature bolder win. He was helpless to stop his canine
his canine companions from giving chase to the creature as ignored his commands in favor of the hunt
So without a second thought, he grabbed his rifle and headlight and ran after them
He could hear them barking in the distance, but they were moving too fast for him to keep up
Then he heard something that sent chills down his spine. A mechanical laughing sound like that of a hyena coming from the same direction as
the dogs. Despite his growing sense of dread, the man continued to follow the sounds of barking and laughter
hoping against hope that he would find his dog safe and sound
But as the night, the night wore on and the barks faded into silence
he realized he had to return to camp or risk become lost himself himself
He stayed up all night waiting for the dogs to return to camp. Calling for them occasionally
But to no avail. As soon as the sun came up, he searched for his beloved pets again
After hours of searching, he finally stumbled upon them. One was badly injured and whimpering from within the thicket of bushes and the other was
just literally torn to pieces. The loss of his dog's life hit him hard and the surviving canine was never the same again
becoming fearful of both Knight and the woods. The man knows he had encountered something terrifying in the woods that night
far worse than any bear or any other known predator to this day
He has never been able to fully explain what he saw or heard that fateful night
but he is certain that it was an encounter with an unknown creature that made him give up exploring the wilds of Tennessee forever
So folks, if you got any questions post them and I will try to answer them for you
Um, Biden wants to know where are the ha hellhounds most often seen
Uh, most, most of the sightings that I have gotten over the years are over in
uh, the British Isles in um in Ireland and in Great Britain
Well, in, in England and Scotland occasion will get one in Wales
But uh no, that's the area where most of the settings are. Uh And you know
that area is kind of addictive that there, there have been, there are certain areas in
in, in uh in England especially Can Chase, which is very well known for uh crypto canines in
these hall hounds. So, um but that's where I get most of sayings in uh CS S
When did the M I B first start appearing in the US? You know
it's hard to tell, you know, John Ki had written about them in relation to the Mothman sightings after the Mothman sighting after the bridge
collapsed in point Pleasant that these men in Black were showing up asking questions of people living in and around point Pleasant
Uh I, I don't know if there are any references to them before that uh they've had
there have been references to them a little after that but is it has steadily increased as years have gone by
But I'd say most deciding, you know, most the time period where they mostly started showing up uh to the degree they are now
I guess maybe the mid nineties. Uh I, I really don't remember
you know, or have an idea when he exactly started. Uh Marla asked uh Marla Snyder
do you have many reports of crypto helping a human occasionally we get one
uh, it's mostly Bigfoot, it's always Bigfoot. I mean, I, I, I don't know of any other crypt that has helped or a human or
had a story but Bigfoot seemed to be the one. Um, there have been a lot of accounts of hikers
getting lost or people getting injured and they show up and end up someplace in the company of a
a group of Bigfoot or trying to nurse them or trying to feed them or trying to hide them for whatever reason
Um, there's some pretty well known accounts as well. So in older accounts
but, um, more recently, there have been, uh, accounts of Children who
would get lost in the woods and I don't know if they're, if they're connected to any of the missing 411 cases
But I, you know, there have been several search and rescue folks who mentioned that they
they go looking for a child and they'd find it in an area where there's just no way in hell
The kid could have got there like up in a mountain, up in a cliff or something. Um
and, and, and when the kid, when the child would, they would ask the child about it
uh The answer seemed to be that of a, a Bigfoot. So
um, but it does happen. Ok
the apocalypse d the apocalypse 22 or hell, how generally more aggressive than rogue dog
man, you know, from all indications that I have gotten with the hell hounds is
that they're distinctly supernatural. Um, many times the apparition, it will, it will show up as an apparition
not fully formed. Many times people talk about it, having fire associated with it
Um, having a real awful smell associated with and, and always, always quadruped
Um, are they associated with death? I, I don't know, they may very well be
Um, but I have had, like I said, the account, that one account
that last account I talked about and there was a particular one down in North Carolina that was very interesting that I knew as well
of a possible hellhound that had come out of a cemetery and crossed the road in front of somebody who was driving by the cemetery
and they, they described it as being like an, a, a huge apparition of a hell
I call it, you know, a large dog, large black dog, but it could see flames on its feet and across its back
to some degree. Logan. L, have you looked into B E K being possibly hybrid shift
shape, shape, shape or rep? Yeah. I mean, um, you know, my theory
my theory on, on this phenomenon is that they are an alien
Uh, I don't think they're human. I don't think they're associated with any organization or anybody or any humans
Um, I've called them the cleanup crew because they, they seem to show up after sightings very quickly
Many times before it's even reported and, uh, give off that vibe that they just aren't human
And many times they have like a colored skin, if you can see it
strange mannerism, very mechanical, uh, very monotone as far as voice goes
uh, usually pretty polite but they can get quite aggressive, uh, trying to convince the witness not to say anything
or to do anything. Um, but no, we hear that we hear that a lot but are they
are they shape shifters direct? I don't know. I mean, you know, I think they are an alien species of some type of World
Bigfoot radio. How, how back Suji? Have you ever heard any reports of hows that sound
Kind of mechanical? Yeah, I have, um, mostly to do with, um
distant House, nothing in particular, very close by. Um, but it, it
it, it, it, there have been occasions now what that is, I don't know
Um, could it be some type of, uh, alien being, I guess
I mean, you know, you know, after all these years I've heard all kinds of weird stuff
you know, but I had, there, there are, there have been occasions where the mechanical
the mechanical sounding or metallic sounding, uh, should the sound show up
Um, not necessarily anything that was seen that was like a, a drone or a
uh, or some type of, um, robotic creature or something. But, yeah
we have heard, we have had cases of sounds that sound metallic
