I was born and raised in Radford, Southwest Virginia, but my grandmother was from the Shenandoah Valley. She told me that what we refer to as Bigfoot today was called the "Wood Booger" when she was a kid. It was not some legend or myth to them but a real, live, flesh, and blood creature. They just accepted its presence and treated it with respect. No big deal according to her.
Born and raised in the Shenandoah Valley. There are places I go through often--the Fort Valley area, specifically--where you can absolutely imagine a squatch hiding away for years and never being discovered. Super cool seeing my neck of the woods getting some attention.
That’s where my entire family had encounters and still has encounters. There have been several times we’ve sat listened to them screaming and going on. We’ve actually sat on our back porch and listened to them. First time I heard of them, my grandpa warned me and my brothers about them when we were just very small children. Of course, he didn’t call them Sasquatch or Bigfoot. There were no TV’s when he was a child and in fact, I never heard it called that until I was about 13 and like so many others that was the Patterson film and I still didn’t make the connection. It wouldn’t be until I was an adult that my brothers and I began putting it together. Then, about 15 years ago my brother, who was hunting in one of the mountains behind our home was chased by one. Sure scared him and he doesn’t scare easily. After that, I began researching Bigfoot and for the first time recognized the sounds we had heard through the years and began recalling that we had actually seen signs of their activities when we played in the woods as kids. We often saw strange structures, trees out of place etc., but we didn’t give a lot of thought about it. Now, I get shivers just thinking about how close we may have been to them. My brother says he occasionally sees signs of their presence, but he tries to avoid intruding upon their neck of the woods. The experience he had taught him that he didn’t want another. I had my own experience as a young woman. It terrified me and I’ve never been able to go back into the forest. Actually, my home is surrounded by forest and I’m very careful when I’m in my yard and I watch my children very carefully. I also had an encounter with a werewolf. As afraid as I am of Bigfoot, the werewolf absolutely terrifies me. I was with my husband when we saw that monstrosity and I know had we not been in our car, it would surely have killed us and taken great pleasure in it. I know Bigfoot is intelligent and I believe the werewolf the werewolf is also, but I believe the werewolf is a killing machine.
Yes, and the dialogue in the left ear only, and music in stereo, so distracting, ruins the video for me, going to skip this one. Keeps happening on this channel.
My family and I were Michigan transplants to the area for some years. Our last child was born there... In the same hospital Patsy Cline was born. We lived in Winchester, Virginia then moved to Hardy county West Virginia. Back in Michigan now but oooohhh GOD do I miss the Shenandoah Valley ...... Terribly!!! We've lived in some great places including Jacksonville Beach Florida... But Virginia & WV.... My God.. TRULY the closest thing to HEAVEN I've ever experienced!!!! God truly put in his very best work when he created Shenandoah Valley/ Blue Ridge Mountains ❤❤❤
I live in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley, and it’s no surprise to me that people see things around here…I grew up in the mountains as you drive up to Todd Lake…some days in the broad daylight you can sit in your car at one of the pull-offs, and you won’t see or hear any wildlife….very spooky! You get those reports when a Sasquatch or Dogman is close by. It’s too quiet for a National Forest! 😮
Can't listen any longer , my hearing is not good enough to hear the narrnarrative through the music. Putting music on descriptive documentaries seems to be a growing trend. I now know why my late father gave up on TV...
This one is particularly bad and all the audio at least the voice comes through on the left channel. Terrible edit, and post work. I'm not even old, can't and won't do it, actually gave me a headache.
Everything's great with your vids you's just need to tone down the music track it should be background music but sometimes it's load enough to drown out the people talking
Another great looking documentary love you guys ! In my Top 3 favorite Sasquatch channels and number 1 in visuals /photography videos are truly amazing #SmallTownMonsters
This is very cool. I live in the Shenandoah valley and have had some wild stuff happen to me around and found tracks well. So this was a surprise to see because nobody really knows about all the sightings around here
@delilahrainelle7158 People are worried they will be perceived as crazy or 'on drugs' family and friends can be quite cruel, laugh it off, be dismissive. This is why people are not so forthcoming with sharing their experiences.
Good to see the Valley covered. I'm well convinced that the big boys are out here. Never seen one oersonally, but I have seen lots of related phenomena.
Just north of you guys, firm believer in Bigfoot. I’ve had 2 experiences one in early summer of 16, the other July this yr. The first was a personal encounter in a natl park. The other a vocalization just like the Ohio howl, heard twice a minute or so apart. And from different distances and directions, my girlfriend heard it as well. Glad to see that there are others here close by that know the truth!
Thank You Small Town Monsters. I live in NC, 5 hours from Shenandoah. My husband and I love it and plan to visit again in October. We would love to live out our retirement years in Shenandoah ❤
I grew up in the Shenandoah Valley right down the road from Orkney Springs in the small community of Basye. Some of the old timers used to speak of encountering them when they’d be out hunting. Had a friend of mine tell me also that their mom had seen one cross the road one night as she was driving through the New Market Gap area. Wouldn’t surprise me if they did live in the Shenandoah Valley, as a kid I used to look up at the mountains and wonder what could be hiding up there.
I used to live near Star tannery and yes they are in that area. One lived in a hollow off of Cedar Creek valley very close to my house. I heard about them in fort valley and saw two in Shenandoah national park.
My grandpa warned me about them when I was a tiny little girl. Our farm (still to this day) sits surrounded by the mountains. His grandpa fought in the Civil War and he said his grandpa and a friend had a sighting as young boys.
Great job on this production Seth, very well done. And kudos to these guys working together. This is something so needed today. I live in the Shenandoah Valley and there are many stories once you get people comfortable to talk about it. Looking forward to the next episode!
This is SOOOO good! Thank you! Well done, informative, interesting and just plain cool fun! Can’t wait for the next episode! Keep up the great work! Thanks again 😊❤️
Him being paralleled by foot steps reminds me of a story my cousin tells. Similar story. He got down out of his tree stand after dark and started walking back to his truck. He eventually started hearing what he thought were foot steps walking behind him. He stopped to get a better listen and the steps would stop. He'd take another step or two and there'd be two more steps. This carried on and he's starting to get really spooked causing him to pick up the pace. Predictably, the faster he walked the faster the steps. He'd stop and they'd stop. He almost sprinted the last 100 yards to his truck. He jumps in and tries to close the door and it's like something wouldn't let him close the door all the way. He's almost near panicked as he keeps trying to open the door just enough to get a little momentum to overcome the resistance. Sometime in the middle of his struggle he looks down at the bottom of the door and there's his climbing rope stuck in the door. It had fell out of his pocket, strung out a ways, then started dragging behind him. Dude thought he was a goner and it was his safety climbing rope😂🤣😅
They won’t leave bananas because they’re not native to the area, but they’ll leave toys and peanut butter ?! Since when are toys and peanuts native to the woods? If Bigfoot can reason as to why you leave a toy, don’t you think they can figure out how to eat a banana? 🙄
Sure. The toys are gifts. The point of the peanut butter is someone or something with opposable thumbs would most likely open it. Make better sense now?
@@cherylp6090That didn’t sound like what he meant. I don’t think he was referring to leaving a jar of peanut butter, which I believe they would open. He actually said bananas weren’t native to Virginia, but apples were. I’m sure a Bigfoot would eat a banana.❤
I truly enjoyed watching this one! I live in the Blue Ridge Area in Va so I found it quite interesting as you don’t hear a lot about activity in Va, but doesn’t mean there isn’t any ha ha. Thank you STM❤❤
The place to find sasquatch is likely the Nahanni Valley. If you read up on the geographical features of the valley as well as the likelihood of it being a thruway for land bridge arrivers-- plus the brutal decapitations, it is likely the best bet.
I am happy to have found this video! I live in Richmond and have had 2 BF experiences in VA (not visual). One was near Sherando Lake in Augusta Co. and one was near Kerr Dam at the NC state line. Two guys have told me their experiences in Dinwiddie and Prince George counties. BF is everywhere in VA and the USA! Your group could start a library for members. There are many great books out there on BF, including David Paulite's 2 books about investigating the Hoopa Indian Reservation in northern CA. But, a very important book on BF DNA is "Truth Denied" by the late Scott Carpenter. He details the QA/QC on the sampling techniques and lab procedures that determined BF DNA with over 100 completed analyses. I am also a scientist (managed groundwater sampling down to the parts per billion) and the highest standards were used for the determination. I do not know why the study is not common knowledge, but it was accurate.
I saw Boggy Creek and it scared the 💩💩💩 out of me. Little did I know 5 years later we had our encounter, and I didn't even think Boggy Creek. Had several other strange things happen while working on Line Boats on the Tennessee River and Ohio and Upper and Lower Mississippi River. Had underground boring equipment knocked off trailers along with Mini's pushed in the ditch. That happened in Conway SC. The whole equipment situation couldn't be explained, we chalked it up to kids and mischief. Personally, no it wasn't.
Great video. Thanks STM. To deal with the left channel problem on headphones, I changed my sound in Windows to mono, which evened it out. Now I've just got to remember to switch it back again after!
What a great upload, I really enjoyed it! Excited for the rest of this series. I LOVE the drone footage so much! I appreciate the dedication & seriousness of these types of groups, but also that they’re genuine friends who care about each other & are having fun. The folks working at the university in North Carolina is the best chance the subject has at producing the kinds of acceptable evidence that will appeal to a larger portion of the scientific community. It’s woo-less, and I appreciate that. They’re doing a large study, not merely examining a few pieces of evidence. It’s not a single person or small group-it’s dozens of unrelated educated individuals working for the love of their chosen subject -science. No unknown agendas nor profit-driven entities. And the best researchers out there have sent in some samples. It’s so exciting & I can’t barely wait for publication!
I live in the gorgeous Shenandoah valley as well. I experienced something during the winter of 1991 or 92 at around 1 or 2 am in the skyline drive area just off rte 33.
Sorry guys had to stop watching. The background music on one ear was too annoying. Video looked good otherwise. I hope you can re-edit to remove or will have to wait for the next one.
My experience was all main audio exclusively in the left and the background/music in both. Checked my sound on an unrelated recording-it’s definitely this video’s audio mix that’s off.
Well golly gosh, it ain’t supposed to be a rap station. The music was no worse than any other documentary, in fact better than most. I guess you just couldn’t process what mattered; the content, and not charisma. Seth hits another home run here. Can’t wait until Episode 2. Charles has put together a great team too.
You recorded that in mono I believe .While you narrat your voice is only in my left ear. I know nothing about filming so this is speculation on my part about the settings.
Ditto on the heavy handedness with the new age music. The info in the doc is compelling enough, you don't need a competing soundtrack. Especially when half the music sounds like it's to accompany Tinkerbell flying around. Really, please make the background music barely noticeable.
Yeah sorry I just couldn't watch this one. The background music completely ruined it. Why do you need music playing over everyone while they are talking? Couldn't concentrate on what was being said over the horrible music.
I lived in Shenandoah valley for almost 30yrs and I was Roared at 3 times and paced out once and I experienced a few other things that can't or atlease wasn't explainable. I moved
I enjoy the subject and have watched basically every piece of Bigfoot content on STM.. but the mix on the music is way too loud to the point of distraction and taking away from the presentation. Had to stop like 20 minutes in.
@seanwhitman799 the Small Town Monster crew are whats known as "APERS". They believe Sasquatch is nothing more than an undiscovered Ape. Jeff Meldrum is an "APER".
Unfortunately the music is too loud. and the voices only come from the right ear cup (headset). Unfortunately, this is the case with some videos. Since English is not my native language and I am convinced that the small town monster is happy that foreign fans also visit their channel, I hope that the videos may be revised again. it would be acoustically more pleasant. Otherwise, of course, you did a great job. keep it up! Greetings
Many indigenous groups have oral traditions passed down through many many centuries of "Sasquatch" living and coexisting amongst their tribes. Gigantopithecus, an ape/human looking hominid, are certainly still coexisting with every other living creature on planet earth. Elusively intelligent, they continue to survive without being captured by humans. They're phenomenal at delegating who they allow to see them, and who they do not.
I enjoy watching the videos and the subject, but the constant play of music throughout is a little annoying. It seems to be a thing on american videos.
I’m from the Ohio valley/Wheeling area & Haven’t really seen anything here myself. My finance and I heard a big ass knock and tree branches breaking down back behind our house one night & That was sketchy. We have the same rolling hills though & Every year we go to st Pete’s FL where we have a family beach house. When we’re ready to get home after driving 17 hours ,the rolling hills are always the first sign I’m home 💙💛
I had a up close run in with one a couple of years ago in the blue ridge mountains while hunting. I was born and raised in the Shenandoah Valley and still live here.
I had multiple encounters in Shenandoah national park and in Shenandoah county around North mountain. I talked about some of them on Sasquatch Theory channel. Where I grew up in Rappahannock county in the Blue ridge they were called wild people and mountain devils.
Depends on where they are & what they're doing. There are many accounts of people accidentally surprising Sasquatch near running water or when they're doing something with their hands that requires maintaining visual focus.
Feed bigfoot some preshelled walnuts.pecans and sunflower seeds.autumn is closing in so take them whole pumpkins so they can eat those seeds too.u can ask around for vegetables and fruit that is too ripe or too much rot for us but fine for their stomachs. As for items.i would like to know what they would do with a toy truck,.a book with pictures and a mirror but not one made of glass but that other reflective stuff.i hope u like my ideas and u will try them.HAPPY SASQUATCHING!
Narrows/ New River was my first experience but it took 35 years for us to realize what had happened. At the time an old man told us we had encountered a wood bugger. Didn’t have a clue what he was talking about!
As a indigenous man I can tell you him saying their aren’t very many means that he doesn’t know much I mean that respectfully i have seen hundreds walking on a mountain top at once
lmao no you didn't. Life long Virginian in the Shenandoah area, there is no such thing as bigfoot or dogman things, all human foolishness. What you saw, if anything, were hikers.
5 minutes into the video so far, and I have to say: the music is getting a little over-bearing. I sure hope it doesn't continue like this for the duration.
I was screamed at twice in the Shenandoah National Park on an east slope of the Blue Ridge trout stream, Fishing up a section that had several falls and was noisy O guess I walked up on it, the first scream was an attempt to get my attention and when I kept coming it let out a roaring scream that shut up the cicadas and everything else for 20 minutes I sat behind a fallen log and watched but didn’t see anything A Raven like call came from up on the mountain above me and a few seconds later an answer that was similar from just out of sight downstream below me, there were two I will never forget that
The mix is definitely off on this one. Left ear dialogue only with music and right ear music only and loud. It's hard to watch with headphones. Cant hear what they're saying very well.
Fascinating film. I especially enjoy the variety of equipment outlined. It all makes sense. Just one observation for you: it would be better, I think, to feature one person’s story in its entirety then move on to the next one. If you do it in rotating bits, like you did, it’s sometimes hard to put a person’s story all together. I look forward to hearing about Darby Olcutt’s conclusions.
Love you guys! Appreciate each one of you and your awesome personalities! I am genuinely praying for you and asking God to reveal truth to each one on your journey to discover what you are seeking.
I was born and raised in Radford, Southwest Virginia, but my grandmother was from the Shenandoah Valley.

told. SmallTown Monsters is in a league of its own. Great videos. Thank you.
This is one of the best channels out there period really like small town monsters keep up the good work.
Poor audio had to stop watching sorry guys normally love your films , couldn’t hear anything 😩
You recorded that in mono I believe .While you narrat your voice is only in my left ear. I know nothing about filming so this is speculation on my part about the settings.
Enjoyed the video and the camaraderie was great.
SmallTown Monsters is in a league of its own. Great videos. Thank you.
Ditto on the heavy handedness with the new age music. The info in the doc is compelling enough, you don't need a competing soundtrack. Especially when half the music sounds like it's to accompany Tinkerbell flying around.
Really, please make the background music barely noticeable.
Yeah sorry I just couldn't watch this one. The background music completely ruined it. Why do you need music playing over everyone while they are talking? Couldn't concentrate on what was being said over the horrible music.
I will fix this in the future! Thank you for your comment
Thank you!! Great info, good documentary otherwise.
I lived in Shenandoah valley for almost 30yrs and I was Roared at 3 times and paced out once and I experienced a few other things that can't or atlease wasn't explainable. I moved
This was one of the best because it's not far from where I live!
Same!!!
Love the subject matter. I live at the top of the Valley in Jefferson County, WV. Lose the background music. It’s terribly distracting.
Great job, looking forward to more.... and to the guys complaining about the sound, then don't watch.. how self important are you people going to get.
I enjoy the subject and have watched basically every piece of Bigfoot content on STM.. but the mix on the music is way too loud to the point of distraction and taking away from the presentation. Had to stop like 20 minutes in.
Wonderful
I cant wait until the next episode!!!
I enjoyed this first episode and looking forward to much more in this series. Thank you STM, I’ll be watching
Ketchum's study showed they were a hybrid of half human and unknown. Not ape. No ape DNA was found. just to clarify
just getting up to speed ay?
@@seanwhitman799
Humans are hominids.
Hominids are great APES.
Do a Google image search for "primate taxonomy chart".
@seanwhitman799 the Small Town Monster crew are whats known as "APERS". They believe Sasquatch is nothing more than an undiscovered Ape. Jeff Meldrum is an "APER".
100% true and correct. So you have to ask yourself does STM have an agenda? It's obvious to me
ATTENTION -- Your sound is messed up on this video
Yea we know.
Thank you for your COMMENT
Unfortunately the music is too loud. and the voices only come from the right ear cup (headset). Unfortunately, this is the case with some videos. Since English is not my native language and I am convinced that the small town monster is happy that foreign fans also visit their channel, I hope that the videos may be revised again. it would be acoustically more pleasant. Otherwise, of course, you did a great job. keep it up! Greetings
Many indigenous groups have oral traditions passed down through many many centuries of "Sasquatch" living and coexisting amongst their tribes. Gigantopithecus, an ape/human looking hominid, are certainly still coexisting with every other living creature on planet earth. Elusively intelligent, they continue to survive without being captured by humans. They're phenomenal at delegating who they allow to see them, and who they do not.
BF is not a giganto, DNA says that they are a crossbreed with us. Check out "Truth Denied" by Scott Carpenter (RIP).
Use to live in Baltimore MD. Back in the day. Skyline drive harpers ferry . Been there no sasquatch but it was lovely beautiful land.
It's funny to hear people talking about Bigfoot being rare. They are not rare, but they are everywhere.
Really? If they’re everywhere why haven’t most people seen them?
How Small Town Monsters DOESNT have a sweatshop making documentaries, I will never know.
Again I applaud you, you had an awesome show thank you for sharing some of your knowledge with me God bless you all
I enjoy watching the videos and the subject, but the constant play of music throughout is a little annoying. It seems to be a thing on american videos.
Orkney springs!! Thats where i saw the black mountain lion!!!!!No way!! Grew up there!! This video is so local its freaking me out.
LoL 😂😆 , all unexplained as usual , sorry bro , turn on the lights that might help some.
@@LesPoole what? I don't understand? What is unexplained?
Turned my volume up full but still struggling to hear the voice’s over the music. Gave up after 20 minutes.
Gee I'm getting perfect sound ??
Bringing a bible for bigfoot as a gift,damn thats crazyXD
I’m from the Ohio valley/Wheeling area & Haven’t really seen anything here myself. My finance and I heard a big ass knock and tree branches breaking down back behind our house one night & That was sketchy.
We have the same rolling hills though & Every year we go to st Pete’s FL where we have a family beach house. When we’re ready to get home after driving 17 hours ,the rolling hills are always the first sign I’m home 💙💛
I had a up close run in with one a couple of years ago in the blue ridge mountains while hunting. I was born and raised in the Shenandoah Valley and still live here.
No you didn't lol.
The audio mixing is very bad--voices in one ear and background music in the other. Not good!
Fixing that issue for future episodes! Thank you for your feedback. Not sure what the issue was
Watching from Woodstock VA
Great show. Thanks.
I had multiple encounters in Shenandoah national park and in Shenandoah county around North mountain. I talked about some of them on Sasquatch Theory channel. Where I grew up in Rappahannock county in the Blue ridge they were called wild people and mountain devils.
All the videos audio are fine except when I watch this one. The voices are really low and I can only hear the music well. Really strange
Had to turn off to hard to listen to the interviews with the background music, whose idea was that ??? , not very well thought out sorry
Why is the aspect ratio wrong? This video has been stretched horizontally.
Nice! Right in my backyard.
sound was very poor........
You don’t find Bigfoot, Bigfoot finds you
Depends on where they are & what they're doing.
There are many accounts of people accidentally surprising Sasquatch near running water or when they're doing something with their hands that requires maintaining visual focus.
Loved it, thank you so much
Feed bigfoot some preshelled walnuts.pecans and sunflower seeds.autumn is closing in so take them whole pumpkins so they can eat those seeds too.u can ask around for vegetables and fruit that is too ripe or too much rot for us but fine for their stomachs. As for items.i would like to know what they would do with a toy truck,.a book with pictures and a mirror but not one made of glass but that other reflective stuff.i hope u like my ideas and u will try them.HAPPY SASQUATCHING!
Virginian born and raised too. Love it here
Narrows/ New River was my first experience but it took 35 years for us to realize what had happened. At the time an old man told us we had encountered a wood bugger. Didn’t have a clue what he was talking about!
Just drove through Sperryville yesterday. 😊
Raised in the Shenandoah Valley Rockingham and Page County, it's a very beautiful place, but I can't say I ever heard stories about Bigfoot.
Shenendoha👀👀💚Wow Beautifull place!!! 💕✨💕✨💕✨✌️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
As a indigenous man I can tell you him saying their aren’t very many means that he doesn’t know much I mean that respectfully i have seen hundreds walking on a mountain top at once
lmao no you didn't.
Life long Virginian in the Shenandoah area, there is no such thing as bigfoot or dogman things, all human foolishness.
What you saw, if anything, were hikers.
Been to Switzer dam camping dozens of times. Nothing cool ever happened though dang it
5 minutes into the video so far, and I have to say: the music is getting a little over-bearing. I sure hope it doesn't continue like this for the duration.
Fantastic music in this episode!
I was screamed at twice in the Shenandoah National Park on an east slope of the Blue Ridge trout stream,
Fishing up a section that had several falls and was noisy O guess I walked up on it, the first scream was an attempt to get my attention and when I kept coming it let out a roaring scream that shut up the cicadas and everything else for 20 minutes
I sat behind a fallen log and watched but didn’t see anything
A Raven like call came from up on the mountain above me and a few seconds later an answer that was similar from just out of sight downstream below me, there were two
I will never forget that
Good Stuff Guys 👌from Ohio 🍻
Cheers brother! 🍻
The mix is definitely off on this one. Left ear dialogue only with music and right ear music only and loud. It's hard to watch with headphones. Cant hear what they're saying very well.
Watch without headphones.
Wow, great show, thx
Fascinating film. I especially enjoy the variety of equipment outlined. It all makes sense. Just one observation for you: it would be better, I think, to feature one person’s story in its entirety then move on to the next one. If you do it in rotating bits, like you did, it’s sometimes hard to put a person’s story all together. I look forward to hearing about Darby Olcutt’s conclusions.
Good job guys , you guys keep amazing me 🚗👽💀🙈🙉🙊👽🌚💩🙈🙈😾😿🙀😽💥
Love you guys! Appreciate each one of you and your awesome personalities! I am genuinely praying for you and asking God to reveal truth to each one on your journey to discover what you are seeking.
Shenandoah PA also used to have them but I think even they moved away from here.😂
Shen’doh
Is there going to be another part to this? I watched the whole thing and there wasn't anything about a terrifying sasquatch encounter investigation?
Nice area full of green rolling hills but where was the terrifying sasquatch encounter????
In the director's cut of this movie he uses the entire of roll of tape.
Oh for sure haha. Want me to post it?
Great Video ... but Music is a bit loud I would say. :D
