Bigfoot Central/Bigfoot Quest Tomorrow...

Not sure what is scheduled for Bigfoot Central but hopefully there will be a minimum of talk on the P/G Movie, and it starts at 8:00 EST/7:00 Central.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then, on Bigfoot Quest Bob and Mike welcome Maryland researcher Bob Chance, who recently spoke at the 2008 East Coast Bigfoot Conference, beginning at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central. And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Review: Sasquatch Watch Radio 10-20-08

This was a great show, with Kentucky researcher Bart Nunnelly, who discussed his research and sighting of a Sasquatch in the Bluegrass State, as well as his research of the Dogman in the Land Between The Lakes area and the murder which occurred there which may or may not be connected to the Dogman (a family of four was found ripped apart, as if by an animal). The show actually began with a major announcement-Steve Kulls says that SquatchDetective.com will re-premiere on January 1st, 2009, and Squatch Detective Radio returns January 5th. I called in and asked about the Dogman and the murder, as well as the Beast of Seven Chutes photo. Bill asked about sightings and footprint finds of Sasquatch, and also about the Dogman in Kentucky. Bruce the Creature Seeker called in and asked about the murders as well, and what the difference was between the Dogman in Kentucky and in other areas of the U.S. There were a few other callers who asked mainly about the Dogman. Billy and DB welcome next week Richard Noll to their program, starting at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central. And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Got some new books today...




I will be writing full reviews for all three of these as soon as I finish them.

Book Review: North America's Great Ape: The Sasquatch by John Bindernagel



This is a really excellent book, a scientific tome which does not bog down in scientific jargon. Bindernagel writes about the parallels between Sasquatch and Great Apes, including similarities in behaviors and food habits, as well as theories on behaviors and their reasonings. Bindernagel also includes detailed Appendixes on the different aspects of the parallels of the behaviors and food habits and comparisons with the Great Apes. There are several illustrations of sighting encounters, mostly drawn by the witnesses themselves, as well as photographs of footprints and areas of activity. This book may be over a decade old, but I highly recommend it, and Bindernagel is writing a sequel which will be coming out sometime late this year or sometime in 2009. Bindernagel writes in a comfortable style, without getting bogged down in scientific jargon. Get this one if you can. It is available at http://www.bigfootbiologist.org
Melissa Alvarez reviews Dr. Melvyn Willin's new book of spectral photographs, noting the images have been investigated by the Society for Psychical Research. How believable are the images Willin has assembled? Meanwhile, Susan Sheppard invites you to listen for the Cry of the Banshee.

Reviews: HBM's Crypto-Corner/The Sasquatch Experience 10-19-08

On HBM's my guest was Thom Powell (The Locals: A Contemporary Investigation of The Bigfoot/Sasquatch Phenomenon), and we discussed several things, such as the Battle Mountain Case, the Skookum Cast, the case of Rocky Bounds, who was given advice by Thom on not being distracted by Sasquatches in back of you when there is one or two in front of you, and also how he saw one belly-crawling towards a fruit pile. He also discussed the Dora Bradley habituation case, as well as the camera operation he is part of. He also took questions from callers Steve Summar and Thomas Hughes. Next Sunday, is an open-mic First-Annual Halloween Special, beginning at 4:30 EST/3:30 Central.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On The Sasquatch Experience, Sean and James were live from the field, doing call-blasting at an area where ordinance was stored during WWII, where there are also some bunkers. They were doing some call-blasting while we were on the air, and were also answering various questions about some of their techniques and methods. Bruce (Creature Seeker) called in and gave a full report on the 3rd-Annual Mass Monster Mash, which was held yesterday in Watertown, Massachusetts. There was a bit about the Texas Bigfoot Conference as well, but not as much about that. Next week, the SE airs at its normal time of 9:00 EST/8:00 Central. And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.
2008 Texas Bigfoot Conference
Missionaries in the Philippines relate the tale of Pharell, a hermit who lived in the forest and gradually changed in appearance and demeanor until the villagers who had once traded with him wondered if a Hantu-Rimba had taken possession of him. Was Pharell the being that ripped apart a Filipino guerrilla and absorbed a fusillade of bullets unscathed? Elsewhere, a soldier relates a strange incident at Ghostsamongus in True Ghost Stories - Part Two. Meanwhile, there are more things going bump in the night around Britain, as explained in A Gaggle of Ghosts: Part Five.

Glenn Gould spells out some concerns about the possibility of a full disclosure of the UFO phenomenon by the world's governments or the extraterrestrials themselves. Would "these prospective revelations...be traumatic for all humans"? Elsewhere, the October 14, 2008, UFO arrival that failed to take place is the subject in Video: Blossom Goodchild Gives an Explanation - What Happened to ET?

An e-mail I got from a listener of HBM's Crypto-Corner

Hi Henry:

I've gotta hand it to you, your show with Dr. Meldrum was outstanding, great job in getting him on. And you did what every good host should do - you let your guest do most of the talking! :) I think Dr. Meldrum really respected your knowledge on the topic and in turn offered detailed, thoughtful answers to your questions. Maybe I've missed it before, but I've not heard him on a blogtalk show before so it was a real treat for me. Once again congratulations truly for a job well done and a most enjoyable show.

Since I live in the Boston area I'll be meeting Nick Redfern tonight at the Mass Monster Mash. I'm really looking forward to that!

John

aka JT67

Thank you very much, John!!!

Although Blossom Goodchild struck out in her prediction of UFO disclosure in the skies over Alabama, the Prophet Yahweh says he's correct when foretelling the appearance of UFOs, worldwide, on October 31, 2008. And the Prophet Yahweh says the occupants of the soon-to-appear UFOs will be supporting Senator Obama. Meanwhile, in Haisham, UK, Ben Coxe witnessed an aerial phenomenon that left him saying, UFOs 'Seemed to Leave Earth'. Also, Two UFO Sightings: Mysterious And Silent, and a UFO Mystery over Norton, UK.
Creepy Gnome' Back on the Prowl The Sun
It's back. The creepy gnome of cell-phone camera fame has made another appearance, this time in Clodomira, Argentina. What are these diminutive creatures? Are they creatures at all, or midgets playing pranks? Also, something else creepy has reappeared in Phantom Clowns Are Back!

Beneath the streets of Portland, Oregon, lies a network of tunnels which once hid some of the seediest and darkest activities of the city's beginnings, but now lies dormant. Or does it? Do the spirits of prostitutes, drug addicts and Shanghai victims still roam the tunnels?

Thom Powell asked me to pass this along...

Editorial: Could Sasquatch Be Misidentified as Bear, and Vice-Versa?


Picture this: an average hunter or hiker, walking in the forest or on a mountain trail, just minding his/her own business. Suddenly, the hiker/hunter comes across something hunched over on all fours. It is black or dark-brown in color, and the witness immediately assumes it to be a bear, so the witness breaks out the bear mace. But, the witness gets the shock of his/her life when it stands up on two legs, looks at the witness with a more humanlike face and humanlike posture and walks off into the deeper forest. The witness is flabbergasted and is unsre of what to do next. The witness was prepared for a bear, but not for what could only be a Sasquatch or Bigfoot! This scenario is more common than most may realize. A witness assumes he/she saw a bear, but then the true nature of the creature in question becomes clear. Of course, bears are primarily quadraped walkers, only standing briefly on their hind legs to observe a landscape further, and almost certainly not being habitually bipedal, only being able to take a few short steps before reverting back to quadraped status. Many eyewitness reports of sightings from a good distance have been observed of a Sasquatch which was on all fours and was assumed to be a black or Grizzly bear, but then the individual witnessed stood up and walked on its two legs, bipedally, like humans. There is always the possibility that a witness thought he saw a Sasquatch, possibly under poor lighting or at a distance, but it turned out to be a bear. The reverse has also happened, where something assumed to be a bear turned out to be a Sasquatch. John Bindernagel, a retired wildlife biologist, has examined this possibility in his excellent book North America's Great Ape: The Sasquatch, but also included two sketches which showed a bear standing at front and side profile, and also another sketch of a Sasquatch in the same position, which is used almost as a field guide-type drawing to give people a clue as to the differences between an upright bear and a bipedal primate. It is also believed by some that low-flying helicopters and planes passing over a wilderness area may see a hunched-over creature which is assumed to be a bear, but may in fact be a Sasquatch, utilizing natural "camouflage" to fool witnesses. So, next time one is in the woods and sees what appears to be a hunched-over bear on all fours, may in fact be witnessing a Sasquatch.

2nd Event Occurring This Weekend...

The Mass Monster Mash starts at 6:00 P.M. Eastern at Hibernian Hall in Watertown, Massachusetts, with guests Nick Redfern, Dan Gordon, Jeff Belanger and Loren Coleman, who is presenting a tribute to late Cryptozoologist Scott Norman.

2 Events Tomorrow...

First up is the Texas Bigfoot Conference which has as speakers Kathy Strain, Robert Swain, Jeff Meldrum, David Paulides and Harvey Pratt, Daryl Colyer, Dana Holyfield, Henner Fahrenbach and Alton Higgins. The event begins in the morning at 10:00 Central at the Jefferson High School in Jefferson, Texas, with doors opening at 9:00 A.M. Eastern.
This post takes us through the process of dissecting a forged UFO video that shouldn't have needed any debunking. Other UFO video analyses in Kumburgaz, Turkey UFO video reproduction and UFOs over Brazil on October 14? Also, the UFO sightings over Dunfermline, UK may have been explained away by Rose Goldie's 40th birthday party in Dunfermline's UFO Mystery Solved.

A team of paranormal researchers, intrigued by an apparent ghost picture taken the Blairadam Woods, went to the scene of the photo to investigate further. Now, they have more questions than answers. What did they see? More importantly, what did their dog see?
Could the the nasal passages in the strangely-shaped skulls of the duck-billed, crested dinosaurs known as lambeosaurus, have been used for fairly complicated communication between dinosaurs? "Their sophisticated brains, coupled with a highly-specialized organ for communication, does suggest a potential for speech." And on TV we have MonsterQuest: The Future and Lost Tapes: New Series. And don't miss Mass Monster Mash this weekend.
