Bigfoot News - NIGHT CLAWS And The Face Of Sasquatch On Video?

Oh my God ..... wew. I almost made it a month without another new Bigfoot horror movie to talk about.

Really people, can we start making movies about some other monster besides Bigfoot? Really?

Over the past couple of years it seems like everyone with idea of making their own indie monster movie has chosen Bigfoot as their subject matter. There have been so many I can't even keep up with them all anymore.

PLEASE! Give Sasquatch a break and make some other kind of monster movie. I don't know ...... try dinosaurs or a movie about Ogopogo or anything else?

Anyway, yes there is yet another Bigfoot movie on the horizon, this time entitled "Night Claws", which was the brain-child of Polish producer Fabio Saldoni. Saldoni convinced Alabama based film maker David Prior to write and direct his movie and some incentives from government sources actually aided in financing it

Synopsis:

A small town is being terrorized by a killer Bigfoot. One that is blood thirsty, vicious and kills without warning and without discrimination. A scientist by the name of Sarah Evans (Leilani Sarelle) shows up to help the town’s sheriff (Reb Brown) and his deputy girlfriend Roberta (Sherrie Rose) hunt this thing down and put an end to the killings. At the same time, Hunter Crawford (David Campbell) is a thug-like character who along with his two henchmen, is hunting the creature himself, for his own personal gain and he does not care who he has to go through to accomplish this. Enter Charlie Parker (Ted Prior) a tough east coast type who is on a survivalist camping trip, led by the seasoned survivalist Sharon Farmer (Tara Sanford Kleinpeter) at the behest of his young trophy wife (Alissa Koenig) and whom, by no fault of his own, winds up being used as bait for the creature, by Hunter. But there is more at work here than meets the eye. A sinister plot is afoot and at its centre is the vengeful Mister Testi (Frank Stallone). And in the end this plot takes a twist that no one will expect.

Now, that doesn't sound like a bad plot for a movie, except for the fact that it kinda sounds like just about every other Bigfoot movie. Okay, to be fair there have been so many of then lately that they are all starting to sound alike, even though they are all unique projects.

Steeping away from it all for a second ..... this one sounds pretty good.

Just like the upcoming Sy Fy Channel film "Snow Beast", which I talked about last month, the makers of "Night Claws" are going old school and not using CGI. Which you know is a bonus in my opinion.

Saldoni explains, "'Night Claws' is a homage for a monster movies from the 80s. I'm very excited about this project. Developing the storyline for it was a blast. I tried to put as much 80s in it as I could and hire some favorite actors of mine. All known from 80s."

Indeed the cast is rather retro. Facing off against Sasquatch will be Reb Brown (Howling II, Ssssnake), Leilani Sarelle (Neon Maniacs, Basic Instinct), Ted Prior (Deadly Prey, Bio Force), Sherrie Rose (Killer Crocodile), David Campbell (Scarecrows), Frank Stallone Jr. (Rocky Balboa, Rambo: First Blood II, Masque of the Red Death), Alissa Koenig (Zombie Wars) and Tara Kleinpeter (The Dead Will Tell).

Now, on to the real deal ...... possibly.

An amateur Bigfoot hunter in eastern Tennessee named Scott may have accidentally caught the face of the monster on video while shooting some location footage last year. After reviewing the video the researcher noticed a face with it's mouth open and teeth showing. Slow motion analysis shows that the mouth actually closes before the camera pans away. Is it Bigfoot sitting rather motionless in the bushes or is it a hoax? I'll leave that up to you to decide.

It's rather interesting footage none the less.

"Credible" Bigfoot Sighting On Road In Pennsylvania

Written By: Ken Hulsey
Source: Examiner.com

With the media hype surrounding the obviously fake Bigfoot video that has emerged from North Carolina it isn't too surprising that a "credible" eyewitness report of the creature crossing the highway in Pennsylvania would slip under the radar.

Paranormal investigator and author Stan Gordon has come forward with the account of an unsuspecting motorist who witnessed a large creature covered in hair cross a rural road in Butler County, Pennsylvania, on March 18, 2011.

The witness, at first, believed that the animal in question was a deer until he got closer to it and the animal stood up from being hunched over and walked across the road on two legs. According to said witness the creature was at least eight-feet-tall, covered in dark fur, and walked with a human stride.

Over the decades some pretty crazy Bigfoot stories have come out of Pennsylvania, most of which involve the creatures emerging from UFOs or exhibiting magical powers. This case, however, is not so fanciful, and deserves proper investigation, which Stan Gorden has provided via an interview with the eyewitness.

From - www.stangordon.info

On March 21, 2011, I was contacted by a witness who reported having an encounter with a very strange creature during the early morning hours of March 18, 2011. The incident occurred on a rural road in Butler County between Chicora and East Brady. The witness, a businessman passing through the area, stated that “this was the freakiest thing I ever saw, and it made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.”

The man told me that he was driving down the road when from about a qurter-mile away, he observed something on the right side in a grassy area. His first thought was that it was a deer. The driver stepped on the gas to move closer to get a better view. From about 50 yards away, he observed something that appeared to be hunched down, and then stood up. The driver then observed a very tall muscular creature.

At this point, the driver had his high beams on and watched as the creature walked in front of a yellow reflective road sign, then crossed the two lane road in three long steps and continued into a wooded area. What he saw was a humanoid figure that stood at least 8 feet tall that appeared to have smooth leather-like skin that was of either a darker tan or light brown color.

The creature never looked at the witness, and was only observed from its side. The head appeared to be flat in the front section, and then rounded out. “At the top back of skull, it was like one of those aerodynamic helmets. The top was not quite a point, but looked like a ridge on top of the head.” The face was flat, and the eyes were not clearly defined, but the man thought that they might have been pointed in the corner. The ear that was observed on the left side was long and flat, and came up and back and was pointed backwards like a flap.

The arms were muscular and a little longer than that of a human. The hands looked more like a claw, but the number of fingers was unclear. One physical trait that stood out was the extremely muscular legs. The witness stated that it was hard to explain, but the legs did not move like that of a human, and “looked like they bent backwards.” The witness also saw what appeared to be wings on its back which were tucked into its body, with the wing tips extending toward the side of its head.

No unusual sounds or smells were noticed during the observation which was estimated to have been about 7-8 seconds. As the motorist approached the location where the creature entered the woods, it could no longer be seen. The next day the witness decided to drive back to the location of the encounter to look for any evidence. The ground conditions were not suitable for tracks, and nothing was found. The witness did, however, measure the road sign that the creature had walked in front of. The sign was just over 8 feet high, and the head of the creature was estimated to have reached about 4 inches above the sign.

Now back to that "Knobby" video from North Carolina. If there has ever been an ultimate 'fake' Bigfoot video then this one would surely rank as numero uno. The contents of the video are as follows .... guy in ape suit from Target shuffles ..... not strides .... or even walks ... across road. Twenty-four seconds of your life wasted.

The fact that this video has even made the news wires is even more amazing. With all the decent Bigfoot video evidence out there today the main-stream media has, as usual, fixated itself on yet another fraud.

No wonder no one ever takes these reports seriously!

Here is the vid if you want to see how not to fake a Bigfoot video:

The Yucca Man & The Cement Monster - California The Monster State - Part 4

Written By: Ken Hulsey

"Huge", "Scary", "Strong", "Aggressive", "Fast", "Threatening", "Threatening" these are all terms that have been used to describe several Bigfoot-like creatures that are said to inhabit the desert regions of southern California. These mysterious giant apes go by many different names, The Borrego Sandman, The Speedway Monster, Zoobies, Devils, and the Yucca Man.

The first sightings of the Yucca Man began in the early 1970s as more and more people began to populate the remote desert regions east of Los Angeles. As families migrated out of the congested city to the cheaper outlying areas in the desert stories of a large harry monster began to circulate amongst the relocated suburbanites. At first no one really paid much attention to these reported encounters that many believed were just the product of bored imaginations.

All of that, however, was about to change.

On a cold February night in 1971 a lone guard manned a post outside an armory on the outskirts of the Marine Base near Twenty-Nine Palms. Without warning the otherwise unearthly quiet was suddenly shattered when a large mass appeared out of the dark desert landscape. The guard raised his riffle and commanded the being to "halt". Much to the young mans surprise the large figure did not stop but instead charged right at him at an inhuman rate. As the figure grew closer the Marine realized what was approaching, rapidly, was not a man at all, but a huge, upright running, hair covered creature. Paralyzed by shock, the young guard stood his ground, too frightened to move.

The mysterious creature threw the young man to the ground rendering him unconscious.
When the guard’s relief arrived several ours later they found him almost incoherent with his riffle almost bent in two.

After the incident both the CIA and FBI were called in to conduct an investigation. Much to their surprise, the locals were more than eager to tell their own stories about giant man-beasts in the area.

As a matter of fact, on the very same night as the attack on the guard, two of the creatures were seen roaming through a neighborhood, relatively close to the base. When a local couple took a look outside of their front window to see what was upsetting their dog, they saw the two Yucca Men crossing the front lawn. Then some time later the same creatures were seen near a horse corral some distance away by others in the same neighborhood.

The investigation also revealed that several employees at the Joshua Tree National Monument had seen Bigfoot-like creatures on numerous occasions.

Eight years later, in May of 1979, a young couple were leaving their condominium complex in Desert Hot Springs, north of Palm Springs, when a large harry creature emerged from behind a yucca in front of their car. According to the driver the animal, which had "a chest the size of a refrigerator and arms that hung down below its knees", was so large that he could only see it from the mid-section down. The beast that reportedly was covered in long tan colored hair disappeared quickly back into the night leaving no footprint evidence.

Also in 1979 a 12-foot-tall Bigfoot made a visit to Hemet California some distance to the south of Palm Springs twice in a period of a week. This time, however, the creature left a grand total of 17 tracks in the mud along a rural road during its initial visit. These tracks measured 18 inches in length and were spaced some 6 feet apart.

Noted Bigfoot researchers Douglas Trapp and Danny Perez both conducted a investigation of this sighting, even going as far as to perform a "stakeout" of the location where the tracks were found. But alas, the monster did not return.

In 1988 a couple of service men from Twenty-Nine Palms were returning home from a day of fun in the sun at Big Bear Lake at about 9:00 p.m. when they encountered a creature that the locals call the "Cement Monster", due to the fact that it is said to live near an old cement factory in Lucerne Valley.

As the two men approached the old factory, a large upright running creature moved across the road in front of their car. As was the case 9 years earlier in Desert Hot Springs the animal in question was so large that the men could only see it’s lower half.

In disbelief the two men just looked at each other for a moment before one of them exclaimed "What the Hell was that?" The other replied, "That was the Cement Monster, after him!" The driver hit the brakes while the other reached for a gun that was in the glove box. The two adrenaline filed men searched up and down the road and around the cement factory, but never found any sign of the creature.

The pair came to the conclusion that they had seen some form of prehistoric man and returned to their journey home.

Is there a race giant of Bigfoot-like creatures that live in the inhospitable desert near Palm Springs California? To the locals the legend of the Yucca Man is all too real. Though from its behavior, it may be one monster that researchers may want to stay way clear of.

Israeli Air Force Shoots Down UFO Over Dimona Nuclear Plant

Written By: Ken Hulsey
Source: Shalom Life

Did the Israeli Air Force really shoot down an alien space craft Negev Desert on Friday?

Well, that is what is being reported out of the Middle East.

Details are, of course sketchy at best, but from what we know for sure is that the Israeli Air Force scrambled several fighter jets after a "unidentified" object was reported in the sky in the area of the Dimona Nuclear Power Plant. After the fighters came into range of the craft they opened fire on it, and shot it down.

Only question now is, what was it?

As of this moment, no one knows ........ and no debris has been found of whatever it was that the Israeli Air Force shot down.

As to be expected, the Israeli government is reporting that the object may have been a "weather or party balloon". They always say UFOs are balloons, don't they.

I think that anyone with half a mind would have a hard time believing that one of the best trained Air Forces in the world would identify and shoot down your average party balloon.

Seems like a good waste of ammo to me.

So if the story is some sort of cover-up, did they shoot down a UFO? ...... an alien space craft I mean.

Well, with no debris to analyze and a government who isn't likely to come forward and admit that they downed a ship from another realm it isn't likely that we will ever find out for sure. That is, unless the Israeli's have their own version of Mulder and Scully on the case.

UFO's Military Exercises in China
Coffetoday

Do you believe with the existence of UFO? Indeed, the emerging of UFO becomes hot news today. Moreover, it also becomes a big homework for the researchers whether it is truly UFO or not. UFO or we usually called as “Unidentified Flying Object” believed as alien’s plane that can disappear fast. However, it becomes a hot news and big question to the researchers, further people around the world; some of people believe that there is UFO in this earth. In contrast, there some people do not believe with that Unidentified Flying Object. Now, you have heard about the hot news in China. Actually, in October 6, 2010, UFO reported emerges in Chinese airport. UFO over China is not new news anymore. The reason is that it has emerged in China for eight times since June 2010.

The early emerging on September 11, 2010, UFO also emerged in the airport at Baotou in Inner Mongolia. This emerging reported that has duration of appearance for about an hour. If you use your logic, you are able to see the real UFO because an hour is long enough to someone or somebody to see and analyze whether the UFO is real or not. In addition, the Chinese government add by claimed that the emerging of UFO over Chinese airport on September 11, 2010 as UFO’s military exercises, but those exercises have no incident.

STRANGE LIGHTS OVER THE SKIES OF TEXAS

Sky Valley Chronicle

Visitors from outer space? A prank perhaps? A news photographer for a local El Paso, Texas TV station took this footage of some mysterious lights in the skies over east Texas in mid October.

The event caused a big buzz in the UFO community because the lights are eerily similar to the pattern of strange lights seen in broad daylight in Manhattan in New York City not long before this incident.

World leaders briefed on UFO battle near Earth
Allnewsweb.com

World leaders have been briefed on a devastating UFO battle between Zetan 'Grey' And Sirian aliens on the fringes of the Zeta Reticuli around 39 light years away that has claimed the lives of over for hundred thousand alien beings. Most of the casualties were Zetan Aliens known colloquially on Earth as 'Greys'. A few hundred casualties were of the highly advanced Sirians whose consciousnesses are able to be placed in new bodies.

Frantic communications between the US President and alien groups such as Andromedans who are friendly to Earth, have assured our leaders that the incident poses no threat to Earth.

The conflict began when bandit Greys threatened Sirian power in the region which includes our solar system. Greys are seen by many as a potential threat to Earth and hostile to humanity. The 'Grey' bandit leader, Ru-Illiar was killed in the event which saw seven hundred mostly Zetan UFO craft destroyed in a dramatic space battle and a Zetan lunar colony in Zeta Reticuli obliterated.

UFO Over New Jersey: Boomerang UFO Sighting Reported By Witnesses
NYNewsPost

UFO Over New Jersey: Boomerang UFO Sighting Reported By Witnesses. The reports of UFO were aplenty in the month of October and they came rushing in from all quarters of the United States of America. And it was not just the US of A that had been in the vigilant eyes of some alien planets either; apparently, they had a close eye on China as well as far as the rest of the world were concerned.

But as the last month bid adieu to us, we were expecting that the reports of the sightings of the unidentified flying objects would dwindle away into the depths of oblivion with the passing of the month. However, now we see that it was not to be as new UFO stories climb the mountain of fame and attract our attention.

If previously it was the places like Richmond, Illinois or Louisiana that were reporting such stories only to be nullified at a later stage, they now have got back up and support in the form of New Jersey. Previously, most of the sightings that were made were linked to some flickering lights that formed together to take any or every geometric shape.

Archeology Team Digs for UFO Evidence in New Mexico
Knowelty

Every UFO true believer has their own theory about the 1947 Roswell UFO incident. This month an archeology team from the University of New Mexico is using modern technology to find solid evidence to prove what really happened.

“We engaged in a highly credible standard archeological investigation of a piece of landscape that has been warranted to be the location of a flying-saucer event,” said Dick Chapman, director of UNM’s Office of Contract Archeology.

Sponsored by the Sci-Fi Channel, his team has so far spent $26,000 digging up a nine acre area of ground northwest of Roswell. Their bid to investigate the alleged Roswell UFO crash is being filmed by Sci-Fi for an upcoming documentary.

“The summed evidence from the hearsay-level knowledge really points to this [nine-acre sector] as being a recognized potential crash site (of) a UFO,” he added.

Strange Light Seen in Virginia Night Sky
MyFox Detroit

A light that was lurking in the Virginia night sky has grabbed some attention. Some people who saw it think it was a UFO.

"The lights – it was so bring at nighttime," said Brian Fains. "I thought it was a UFO."

It was in the night sky just above Lee Highway when shoppers looked up and saw something weird in Centreville, Virginia on Wednesday night.

Fains quickly grabbed his phone, turned on the camera and recorded the erratic blue light in the night sky. He said it flew around for about ten minutes.

"It was just a distinct blue light, it never like flashed or blinked or (anything)," Fains said.

"It's weird," he added. "You normally see this type of stuff in movies, but just as long as we're here, I'm pretty sure there (are) other people or other things somewhere."

Classic UFO Case - A Close Encounter Of The Erotic Kind

Written By: Ken Hulsey

By now every one has heard the terrifying tales of Alien abductees who have either been taken from their home, or possibly from their car, by beings from another world who perform sometimes painful experiments on them against their will, only to be returned without any knowledge of the event.

In the case of young Brazilian student Antonio Villas Boas, however, his abduction event would turn out to be like non other, and probably one any warm-blooded male would probably volunteer for if he had the chance.

Let me explain.

On a night in 1957 young Antonio was plowing his father's field, as he often did, when a egg-shaped UFO landed some fifteen feet in front of him. At that moment the tractor stalled, and four strange looking 'people' emerged from the craft. Terrified, he tried to flee to no avail, as the four beings quickly overtook him and dragged him back to the craft.

Once inside, the beings removed his clothes and took a blood sample.

After that Antonio's captors began to argue with one another, in a language he later described as sounding like 'barking', then mysteriously left the room. Moments later, to his astonishment, Boas was joined by what he says was a small, sexy, naked blond woman.

The woman made no sound, but Villa Boas felt an overwhelming urge to have intercourse with her, which he did.

After they had finished, the woman pointed at her stomach, then at the sky, which Villa Boas believed was her way of telling him that she was going to have their baby.

The woman left, and the other beings returned and allowed the young man to dress. After being satisfied that Villa Boas and the female had "done the deed" they gave him a tour of their craft, then returned him to the field with all of his memories in tact.

In the weeks after the 'union' Villa Boas began to exhibit the signs of radiation poisoning and developed strange wounds all over his body, which left the local medical community baffled.

Due to the young man's reputation for honesty, local officials had no choice but to believe his story, no matter how incredible it was.

Classic UFO Case - The Government's Answer To UFOs, Sees A UFO

Written By: Ken Hulsey

When it came to explaining away UFO reports there were two things that government sponsored programs like Project Sign, Project Grudge, and Project Blue Book could use to convince the public that the whole mess (UFO sightings) was nothing more than simple misidentification of known celestial objects, namely the planet Venus and weather balloons from the Navy's Project Skyhook.

The later was used rather frequently to explain such famous UFO events as the alleged Roswell crash and the death of Air Force pilot Thomas Mantell, who the government insisted was chasing a balloon, not a craft of unearthly origin, when his P-51 plummeted to the ground.

Yet all that seemed to unravel on April 24, 1949 when several members of Skyhook's crew saw a UFO of their own.

The unit that witnessed the strange craft was under the command of Robert B. McLaughlin, a veteran Navel officer and expert on guided-missiles, at White Sands Proving Grounds in the New Mexico desert. Just after launching a test balloon to establish wind patterns for weather experiments, that were to take place later that day, a strange flying object appeared on their tracking equipment.

As McLaughlin reported in an article he wrote for True (magazine) entitled "Flying Saucers Are Real", the object was elliptical, flat white in color and roughly 105 feet in diameter. Engineers on hand for the sighting calculated that the UFO was at an altitude of 56 miles and was traveling at 18,000 miles per hour. The event only lasted about a minute, but in the minds of all of the eyewitnesses, what they saw was indeed a flying saucer, and not one of their balloons.

After the sighting the unit continued on with their high-altitude experiments noting that at no time did their balloon either look, or act like, the object that they had seen earlier.

McLaughlin's article caused a major uproar amongst agencies in the government who wanted nothing more than to debunk every single UFO report that came their way, and the growing number of UFO enthusiasts who wanted some sort of answer to just what was going on in the skies over America.

Here was a case that Project Grudge could not just merely sweep under the rug, this time the witnesses were US military personnel and trained engineers with high-tech research and tracking equipment. Adding fuel to the fire was the fact that the Navy itself had cleared McLaughlin's article for publication without clearing it through Grudge first, a sign to many that the Navy was in some way trying to provide proof of UFOs to the general populace.

It should also be noted that McLaughlin's article just didn't mention his own personal sighting of a UFO, but also reports by other servicemen from the other branches of the military that seemed to suggest that 'beings' unknown to us were monitoring atomic testing and bases throughout the American southwest.

That is, unless, it was simply just the planet Venus?

Borrego Sandman / Speedway Monster - Updates - California The Monster State - Part 4

Written By: Ken Hulsey

In the time since I last wrote about both the "Borrego Sandman" and the "Fontana Speedway Monster" I have managed to stumble upon more reported sightings of both creatures while doing research on another. Not wanting to proceed with an article about another of California's legendary creatures, and not wanting to add to the other two articles, I have opted to write a follow-up article instead.

It seems that the Bigfoot that reportedly inhabit California's southern regions have been a lot more active over the decades than I first realised.

Here are a bunch of stories that I happened to come across while doing my research:

Borrego Sandman

As I had mentioned in my previous article, the Borrego Sandman, is said to inhabit the rather desolate desert areas of Southern California that reach from the Mexican border to the San Bernardino Mountains to the north.

It may come to the surprise of those who follow stories about Bigfoot and other mysterious creatures that the first report of these creatures by European settlers did not come from either the East Coast, Midwest, or Pacific Northwest. It actually came from southern California in 1769, when Spanish priests founded the first mission in San Diego. Local Gabrieleno Indians told the padres about "harry devils" that lived nearby. In fact, according to written accounts, the Indians actually lived in fear of these large, foul-smelling, "wild-men" and refused to anywhere near their reported home called "towis puki" (camp of the devil) on the southern bank of the Santa Ana River.

The area of "Deadman Hole" near Holcomb Village, just west of the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, was a water stop on the old Stagecoach lines during the mid to late 1800s and the reported site of several alleged murders that were blamed on Bigfoot. In 1876 one the passengers who ventured out of the safety of the coach while it's horses stopped to take a drink reported seeing a large, naked, harry "thing" watching him from behind some scruff.

After that, several people met their demise at the site, either strangled or beaten to death by an unknown person or thing. Of course, the monster got the blame, whether it actually did the killings or not.

In March 1888 two local hunters, Charles Cox and Edward Dean, set out to hunt down the monster and put an end to all the murders. According to a report in the San Diego Daily Transcript (newspaper) the pair found, and killed, what they were looking for, a creature that was described as a gorilla, with the face of an Indian, and fangs like a bear. The body of the creature was transported to San Diego where it was to go on public display, though before it did, it mysteriously disappeared.

In April of 1876, the San Diego Union reported on an encounter with a "missing link" near Warner's Ranch, also west of Anza-Borrego, by a young man named Turner Helm. According to Helm the creature had dark fur like a bear and a face like an American or Spaniard.

Moving forward in time now to 1964, when a father and son were pelted with rocks by a"shaggy" creature while hiking near Escondido, then later that very same summer, a juvenile Sandman was blamed for the death of three cows on the MGM Ranch near Jamul, again to the west of Anza-Borrego. This time the creature left behind plenty of large human-like tracks in the soft dirt.

In 1985 a set of large, human-like, tracks were found in the mountains near Anza. A local hiker, who reported the story to the BFRO, noted "I have hunted that area and hiked around there over the years. Many times I have been out there and knew or had some feeling of another presence. I don't mean like small animals or anything of that sort; just some unexplained feeling that someone or something has been watching me or following me."

It seems that the Borrego Sandman has had a long and very interesting history for sure.

The Fontana Speedway Monster

As I mentioned in my prior article, the "Speedway Monster" was seen in the area of the Mickey Thompson's Fontana International Dragway during the 1960s. What I didn't know was that this creature who reportedly wandered the fields near the track and rummaged through it's garbage also had a violent side.

In July of 1965 a young boy was attacked by the monster as he walked home. According to the account the creature surprised the lad by jumping out from behind some bushes. As he tried to wrangle away from the monster his clothes were torn to shreds. The child manged to get loose and run away, the monster reportedly didn't give chase.

On August 27th of that same year a young woman named Jerri Mendenhall was attacked while in her parked car on a residential street in Fontana by a mud-covered monster that smelled "like a dead animal". The creature reportedly crabbed her through the open drivers-side window. Frightened, the young woman put the car in gear and stepped on the gas to escape. Again, leaving the monster in the dust.

Oh, and here is a little history. Back in the 1800s an area between what is now the towns LaVerne and Pomona, near Fontana, was known to local Indians as "Toybipet" ("devil woman who was there) the reported hunting ground of a female Bigfoot.

The Fontana Speedway Monster (1951 - 1992) - California The Monster State - Part 3

Written By: Ken Hulsey

The southern California city of Fontana has had a long and glorious history in auto racing. As most of you probably know, the city is the present home of the Autoclub Speedway which holds a yearly major NASCAR race along with other racing events of different types.

What many of you might not know is way back in the 1950s there was a drag-strip in the area that was considered one of the best in the country. The Mickey Thompson's Fontana International Dragway, as it was called, lasted for almost two decades before a series fatal accidents forced it to close in 1972.

The area is now a housing tract known as the The Village of Heritage and lies about a mile east of Etiwanda Blvd on the north side of Foothill Blvd.

It seems that these race events that took place for two decades in the area attracted more than legions of die-hard race fans, they also attracted a very curious monster.


The height of these sightings took place in the early 1960s when race patrons would regularly spot a giant, harry, Bigfoot-like creature crossing a field adjacent to the track in full view of the grandstands.

The Bigfoot was seen so regularly that it earned the name "Speedway Monster".

Though the animal was witnessed by hundreds of people, no one ever worked up the courage to investigate it.

It is hard to speculate why a creature that is known for being reclusive and shy of humans would trek so close to a race track filled with people and to mention the load noise produced by the cars?

One can only assume that it was curious about what all the fuss was about or more likely that the creature was making plans on rummaging through the tracks trashcans for left-over burgers and hot dogs after everyone cleared out.

Though the speedway closed it's doors in the early 70s reports of the "Speedway Monster" continued in the city of Fontana and the nearby San Bernardino Mountains continued.

In 1975 a group of Boy Scouts were woken up by a Bigfoot rummaging through their campsite near Barton Flats, likewise in 1976 a young man came face-to-face with the creature outside his cabin near Big Bear.

The area of Lytle Creek, in Cajon Pass, near Fontana has been a 'hot-spot' for Bigfoot sightings for decades.

In 1991 Fontana resident John Davis reported that a harry creature on two legs raided his chicken pen.

The most interesting, post Fontana Speedway, story came in 1992 when several motorists on Foothill Blvd spotted a family of Bigfoot walking along the railroad tracks the crossed over the the busy street. The location was reportedly close to the local Ace Hardware store.

This report is so interesting to me personally because my wife's family had move to nearby Rancho Cucamonga at about that same time. I can tell you from first hand experience, that the area of Fontana was no longer a rural area filled with farms and vineyards in 1992. It was an up and coming community with new housing areas and shopping centers.

To believe that a family of Bigfoot would have wandered into this busy area is nothing short of fantastic ........ if it is to be believed?

Then again the "Speedway Monster" has never been known to shy, so who knows?

Classic UFO Case - UFO Shoots Down Air Force Fighter Over Kentucky?

Written By: Ken Hulsey

Was Air Force pilot Thomas Mantell the first casualty of a US war against beings from another world?

In the late 1940s reports of UFO sightings across the United States were at an all-time high after the reported sighting of nine flying saucers over the Cascade Mountains of Washington and the reported crash of a UFO in Roswell, New Mexico.

Though UFO reports from that era were rather benign, simply sightings of strange objects in the sky, on the afternoon of January 7th, 1948, things would take a possibly sinister, and fatal turn.

Shortly after noon on that fateful afternoon many witnesses in western Kentucky sighted a large unidentified craft, between 250 and 300 feet in diameter souring above them at a fantastic speed.

Moments later the object's flight path took it into the view of the tower crew at Godman Air Force Base, near Fort Knox.

As fate would have it, at precisely that moment a group of four Air National Guard P-51 Mustangs were circling the field preparing to land. The tower radioed the planes to abort their landing and pursue the object that had just flown past the tower.

One of the planes was dangerously low on fuel, and had no choice but to land, but the other three prop-driven-fighters peeled off in a high-speed pursuit of the strange object.

Initially the group, which was under the command of Captain Thomas Mantell, got a good, close look at the UFO. One of the pilots confirmed that the craft was "of tremendous size", while yet another described it as "round like a teardrop, and at times almost fluid."

Whether spooked or running low on fuel themselves, two of the fighters broke off the chase leaving Mantell as the lone pursuer of the object.

At 3:15 pm the Air Force Captain radioed back to Godman that he was going to try and move in closer to the UFO to get a better look at it.

Mantell's last words were, "I'm going to 20,000 feet and if I'm no closer then, I'll abandon chase."

Several hours later the wreckage of the P-51, along with Mantell's remains, were discovered in the woods close to Fort Knox.

Though no one knows for sure just what exactly happened to the Air Force Captain and his plane after his last message, many have speculated that it was either forced to crash or even shot down by the UFO. The Air Force, officially, reported that Mantell had 'blacked-out' at 20,000 feet due to lack of oxygen and crashed.

As for the gigantic UFO, the Air Force initially reported that the object Mantell and his squadron had been chasing was the planet Venus. Later reports indicated that it was a weather balloon from the US Navy's infamous 'Project Skyhook', which was also reported to be what was recovered in Roswell almost a year to the day prior.

For civilian investigators, the Venus explanation made little to no sense, due to the fact that the incident occurred during daytime hours and also because the planet, if it were visible, would not have been directly in Mantell's flight path.

Speculation has persisted that Mantell may have been the first casualty in a secret war, or number of violent confrontations between the US military and UFOs. The government's obvious cover up of the incident has done nothing but fuel these rumors.

Despite whether Mantell was shot down, or merely crashed due to a 'black-out', the incident prompted the US military to begin to look at UFO cases more seriously. Soon after reported sighting Ohio State scholar J. Allen Hyneck was put in charge of Project Sign a military office assigned to investigate UFOs.
