Maine Resident Shares Ongoing Sasquatch Encounters on Podcast

So I just stumbled across this absolutely fascinating interview over on The Cryptid Crew Podcast, and I had to share it with you all because the guest, a Maine resident named Scott, drops some seriously compelling stories about his ongoing encounters with Sasquatch on his property and in the woods near Cumberland County. What makes this one stand out is that Scott isn't just describing a single sighting from years ago. He's talking about regular, repeated interactions that have been happening to him for about a decade now. And the details are wild. Scott describes at least one, maybe two Sasquatch that come around his property, and he says they actually play games with him. Not mind games, literal games. He has these little Bigfoot figurines in his truck that he arranges in a certain pattern, and the next morning he'll find them rearranged. Nobody else has any reason to be in his truck, so he knows it's them. That kind of intentional, playful behavior is something a lot of researchers have theorized about but rarely hear described so plainly. His very first night out investigating, he had an immediate encounter. He was walking across a bridge in the dark when he saw a trackway going down a hill and back up the other side, leading into a greenbelt of woods. From inside those woods came a growl that he says he didn't just hear, he felt it hit him in his chest. The next night, he let out some whoops to see if he'd get a response, and something let out the loudest whoop he's ever heard from about five feet away. His knees started shaking, he started hyperventilating, and his ears were ringing so badly he couldn't hear anything else. That brings me to one of the most interesting parts of the interview. The host brings up infrasound, which is something researchers have been paying close attention to for years. Infrasound is sound below 20 Hz, too low for humans to consciously hear, but you absolutely feel it. It's been linked to feelings of dread, anxiety, and even visual disturbances in people who are exposed to it. Some researchers believe Sasquatch may use infrasound intentionally as a form of communication or even as a way to keep people at a distance. Scott says he experiences it regularly, describing it as a heat in the back of his head, dizziness, and shortness of breath that disappears the moment he leaves the area. That's a textbook description of what people report when they're exposed to infrasound in controlled settings. Scott also touches on something that's come up in a lot of witness testimony over the years, the idea that Sasquatch may use more of their brain capacity than humans do. He points out that we only use about 6% of our brain's capacity, and given the size of a Sasquatch's brain, there's a lot of untapped potential there. It's a theory that a lot of researchers take seriously, especially when you consider the intelligence displayed in things like the tree structures, the deliberate placement of sticks and rocks, and the way some witnesses describe being led to specific locations. He also talks about the terrain in his area, which is mostly pine and birch trees with heavy cover so dense you can't see five feet into the forest even when it's sunny out. There's a lot of granite up there too, and Scott mentions that granite might have something to do with vibrations, which is an interesting thought because a lot of researchers have noted that Sasquatch activity seems to cluster around areas with certain geological features. He also mentions the birch trees being sacred to Sasquatch, pointing out that he sees a lot of structures and symbols made with birch. That tracks with what Native American traditions say about birch being a sacred tree, and many witnesses across the country have reported finding broken or arranged birch trees in areas where Sasquatch activity has been reported. One thing Scott brings up that I think is really important is his belief that Maine is way more active than the BFRO database shows. He thinks people just aren't reporting their encounters because of the stigma, and honestly, that's a sentiment shared by a lot of researchers. Maine being the most forested state in the country, with vast tracts of wilderness and heavy cover, seems like it would be prime Sasquatch habitat, but it doesn't get the attention that places like Washington or Ohio do. If you're into witness testimony, especially from someone who has had ongoing, repeated encounters over many years, this is definitely worth checking out. Scott comes across as genuinely sincere, and the details he shares about the infrasound experiences, the games with the figurines, and the vocalizations are the kind of firsthand accounts that researchers live for.
