November 15th, 1966 – Four young adults traveling through the West Virginia backwoods of an abandoned TNT plant come across something unnatural. The headlights from their ’57 Chevy strike what appears to be a black, lurking, lumbering, 7 foot tall man with red eyes and wings!

Before the winged man of Point Pleasant would make his departure from its menacing raid on the God fearing souls of this minute church-going community, 46 people would die tragically and hundreds more would be left traumatized and emotionally scarred for life.

With rumors adrift of a haunting Indian curse, wild stories of men in black, bridge collapses, and a history of uncanny coincidences, UFO sightings, and even alien abduction; The Eyes of the Mothman is the first feature length documentary to delve deeper than any other program to uncover the truth behind this unsolved mystery from 43 years ago… {video source: EyesoftheMothman}

Scientists believe legendary chupacabras monsters are actually coyotes with severe cases of mange, like the animal pictured here.

Scientists could not have found a better time than Halloween to explain the tales of the mysterious blood sucking monster chupacabra, or chupacabras that has been doing the rounds in US, Mexico and even China since the mid-1990s. The first case was reported in Puerto Rico.

The chupacabras have allegedly been found as recently as June—making the flesh and blood monsters eminently more accessible for study. In most cases, the monsters have turned out to be coyotes suffering from the worst case of mange, a painful, potentially fatal skin disease that ultimately cause baldness and skin shriveling.

Barry OConnor, a University of Michigan entomologist who has studied Sarcoptes scabiei, said the parasite that causes mange said there is no need to look for any further observation, according to National Geographic.

The Bigfoot creature may have been captured on a remote trail camera placed in the Sierra National Forest, based on photography evidence released by Sanger Paranormal Society.

Investigator Jeffrey Gonzalez said Tuesday night that multiple cameras were put in place in this remote area on Memorial Day weekend, and retreived on June 7, 2009.

Ogopogo?

Was it Ogopogo, a large snake-like creature or a sturgeon?

Wendy Sanderson and Gordon Krug agree on one thing: they saw the most amazing creature in Okanagan Lake – whether or not it was Ogopogo.

Sanderson, 41, who has lived in Kelowna since she was four, and Krug, an Edmonton welding teacher, were both at the Okanagan Centre boat dock at 10:30 a.m. Thursday because family members were taking a scuba diving course.

“There wasn‘t a single boat on the lake. It was completely calm, absolutely perfect, just the most pristine conditions for this viewing we had,” said Sanderson.

Alright folks, this is supposedly real genuine footage of the Michigan Dogman. Known as the Gable Film, this grainy old 8mm flick was allegedly bought at an estate sale. It has since been purchased by Michigan disc jockey Steve Cook. But other then that, there is very little information on the film. Some commentors on YouTube claim that you can see a man’s leg kick out which explains it away as a hoax. Others have said it looks more like a gorilla the way it moves. Check out the full and enhanced versions of the video as well. I suspect we can chalk this one up as another dead end.

The event will be held at the Bigfoot Discovery Museum located on Highway 9 in Felton.

Museum curator Michael Rugg said not only is Bigfoot real, but he himself once saw the primate with his own eyes.

“As a boy, when I was 5 years old I saw Bigfoot,” he said. “My family had a saw mill in Laytonville Humboldt-Mendocino county line. We vacationed and fished on the Eel River. We were camping on a beach and my parents were fixing breakfast, and I wandered off one morning. I came to a sand bar in the river and saw a very large hairy man, completely covered in bushy dark hair, with nothing on but the remnants of a torn shirt hanging off one shoulder. I looked at the hairy man, and he looked at me, and then I heard my parents screaming, Mikey! Mikey where are you?’”

I just came across the comment that Sir “Mister Wildlife” David Attenborough made on some British talk show the other night stating that, “I’m baffled by the Abominable Snowman – very convincing footprints have been found at 19,000ft.” This immediately brought back memories of the old In Search Of Episodes where I saw the famed Patterson Bigfoot film for the first time. Which got me thinking that we really haven’t gone down the crypto path here at Paranormal SPY. So I went in search of something new today and boy did I come up big. And no, it’s not some semi-frozen refrigerator Bigfoot, it’s the Fouke Monster.

The Fouke monster is a semi-like-Bigfoot-monster-thing with just a hair of wookie thrown in, that’s been seen around Fouke, Arkansas. The estimated height was seven feet, weighing in at a possible 300 pounds. It supposedly attacked a family back in the ’70s as well as ran off with some livestock. The most recent sighting was back in 1998.

But what I found really interesting were all the close encounters the locals had with the Fouke. This thing didn’t run off like most Bigfoot stories you hear about.

There were so many accounts that a local ad salesman, Charles B. Pierce, borrowed some cash and made a movie about them. The film The Legend of Boggy Creek, is shot documentary style and used actual locals to tell their stories. And the best part is that you can go and watch it over on YouTube. Now this is the ’70s, so if you can get by the hokey music, and damn it’s bad, I think you’ll dig it. Makes me kind of want to get my OshKosh’s on and get a dutch boy haircut.
