A Michigan hunter was in the Upper Peninsula when he heard a series of wood knocks and had a large tree branch thrown at him. Later‚ he and his girlfriend saw a large hair-covered biped.“Back in 2013‚ I was bear hunting in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. We were in Ontonagon County‚ northwest of Bruce's Crossing. My hunting stand was just north of FR 730 about 3 miles from US 45. The trail I was on was evenly spaced between FR 735 and FR 736. It was a small creek called Scranton Creek. It was almost dry at the time.I took the trail north about 2 miles and found a good place to set up a ground blind. I was hunting with a handgun‚ a 500 Smith and Wesson with a factory Red Dot scope on it. I've hunted all my life with handguns and have bagged deer and tons of small game. I'm also an NRA-certified instructor and at the time was shooting competitively in teaching classes for concealed pistol licenses. I felt that I needed to give you some background on myself. I was totally confident in my ability to keep myself safe in the woods.I took up my stand just before daylight on the opening day of the first bear hunt. About an hour after the first light‚ I heard what I can only describe as a wood knock. It was north of me towards the Victoria Dam Area. There was a series of knocks. First I heard three knocks evenly spaced and then two knocks that sounded closer to me. About 15 minutes later‚ again‚ I heard three knocks that sounded like they came from the spot that I heard the two response knocks from and‚ again‚ I heard another two knocks. They were again closer to me. I thought to myself what the hell is making those knocking sounds.Again‚ about 15 minutes later‚ I heard three knocks from where the two responses had come from‚ and then right behind me was a fast four to five knocks and everything in the woods went quiet. It was so quiet I could hear the bugs flying around. I sat there wondering what the hell was going on and who or what knew that I was there. I was in a camo popup blind and I knew that whatever knew I was there had not seen me.About 15 minutes later I heard a whirling sound approaching me and a crash next to the blind. I got up went out and found a tree branch about 3 feet long and three or 4 inches in diameter had landed about a foot away from my blind. Now when I set up the blind I was cautious to make sure there were no trees with branches that could fall on me. There was a clear path through the trees to the trail about 6 feet wide but it was a good 100 feet from my blind of the trail. No man that I know of could have thrown that piece of wood that far and with the speed it had flown.I radioed my hunting partner and told him to come to my blind as soon as possible. When he got there I told him what had happened and we both agreed that I should let whatever wanted the area have it‚ so we packed everything out and I went to another stand. I had set up on FR 733 where the North Country Trail crossed it. I ended up taking a 400-plus-pound male bear the next day. It weighed 389 pounds dressed at the weigh station at Bruce's Crossing.I always wonder what threw that tree branch and did all the wood knocking. The week I got back home‚ I was watching the BFRO guys on TV and found out that they were about 40 miles south of where I was hunting looking for a Bigfoot‚ that the natives up there had reported to them‚ so I contacted them and told them my story and was blown off by Cliff (Barackman). I felt that I had something to share and they just weren't interested.The next year (2014)‚ I took my girlfriend up there with me to show her around and as we were coming back home‚ we were somewhere between Watersmeet and Iron River on US 2. As we drove past a blueberry bog that was on the north side of the road‚ at least a good 200 acres‚ we both saw a hair-covered animal stand up in the middle of the bog. It was at least 4 feet taller than the brush and the brush was 4 feet tall or more itself. I looked at her and all she said was‚ 'Keep going!' I've hunted up there many times since and have not had any more things happen but sometimes you feel like you're being watched.”NOTE: The area is well-known for other unexplained activity‚ namely the Paulding Lights and possible cryptid canines. Cryptid Canines / Wolves Reported in Proximity to the Paulding Light Phenomenon. - The Paulding Lights and Reciprocal Phenomena -  'Upright Cryptid Canine' Observed by Teen in Watersmeet‚ Michigan.

Phantoms &; Monsters Fortean Research Investigation - Northwest York County‚ PennsylvaniaDate: Saturday‚ January 14‚ 2024 - Late AfternoonTemperature: Mid-30s F - Winds 5-20 MPHLocation: Lattimore / Clear Spring region of York County‚ PAInvestigators: Lon Strickler &; Chad ReddingI was contacted 2 weeks before the on-site investigation by a resident concerning unexplained activity on and around his property. The location is east of the northern section of the Michaux State Forest‚ south-southeast of Stone Head Peak and White Rock Mountain‚ which is the northern spur of the South Mountains in the Blue Ridge Moutain Range. The Mason-Dixon Trail Western Terminus and the Appalachian Trail are also located in the region.Arriving at the location‚ we met with the property owner who took us to a small valley and drainage run located behind the residence. According to the witness‚ his dog was let loose from its lead on several occasions‚ which would have required a collar bolt to be unscrewed. One evening in June 2023‚ after the dog was let loose‚ the witness observed 'up to a dozen' shadow-like figures with bluish-silver eyes (that projected light) manifesting along the then-dry drainage run in the small valley. The beings would vanish and then reappear at different locations along the dry run. After observing the beings for 10-15 minutes‚ they eventually faded away. The witness had also mentioned that the beings had gained access to his bedroom on one occasion.The witness also described various anomalies seen and experienced in the area since moving to the property in 2021. There was at least one 'hyena-like' cryptid canine sighting by his son‚ as well as another incident with a possible Bigfoot 'slapping' the outside of the residence near his daughter's bedroom. Also‚ the witness observed 2 big cats‚ possibly Eastern Pumas or mountain lions‚ sitting atop a shed on his neighbor's property. A neighbor also reported a 75-100 foot diameter UFO hovering above a roadway north of the witness' property.The region is historically well-known for cryptid and unexplained activity‚ including Bigfoot‚ cryptid canines‚ UFOs‚ and other paranormal phenomenon. There is also a history of witchcraft and root conjuring in the area (and for most of South-Central Pennsylvania).The witness mentioned an incident that was told to him by a clergyman of 'an attack on 2 Boy Scouts' by a red-eyed winged humanoid approximately 5 years ago at a 'camp near York‚ PA.' The only possible locations of Boy Scout camps in the York‚ PA area are Wizard Ranch BSA Camp in Hellam‚ PA‚ Camp Tuckahoe in Dillsburg‚ PA‚ and Camp Conewago near New Oxford‚ PA. (Camp Conewago is where I had my encounter with a red-eyed winged humanoid in October 1988). The attack was reported as a 'bear attack' according to the clergyman. More research is needed for this account.Chad Redding later related to me his rather interesting Class-B Bigfoot encounter in the same general area on White Rock Mountain.We will continue to stay in contact with the witness and follow up on the area.Valley of the Skookum: Four Years of Encounters With BigfootTrue Bigfoot Encounters: Eyewitness Accounts of Sasquatch Saving HumansVisits from the Forest People: An Eyewitness Report of Extended Encounters with BigfootThe Black Diary: M.I.B‚ Women in Black‚ Black-Eyed Children‚ and Dangerous BooksChasing the Elusive Pennsylvania Bigfoot: A Cryptid from Another RealityHaunted Hills and Hollows: What Lurks in Greene County PennsylvaniaRegister a SNAP EBT CardTry Audible PlusPHANTOMS &; MONSTERS READING LISTHave you had a sighting or encounter?Contact me by email or call the hotline at 410-241-5974Thanks.

If you're tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties‚ subscribe to Reclaim The Net. America First Legal (AFL) in collaboration with Boyden Gray PLLC‚ has submitted a legal brief to the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit‚ staunchly defending the free speech rights of Douglass Mackey. Douglass Mackey‚ a once well-known creator of memes on Twitter‚ was sentenced to seven months in prison. The conviction marked a dramatic escalation in how free speech is being handled in the United States. Rendered in the New York criminal court‚ Mackey was declared guilty of perpetrating a “conspiracy against rights.” Mackey‚ who operated under the alias Ricky Vaughn‚ had made and shared memes critical of Hillary Clinton during the 2016 Presidential race. His memes humorously suggested that Clinton supporters cast their ballots through text messages – a patently invalid method of voting. The filing challenges the actions of the Biden Administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ)‚ which has been accused of selectively prosecuting Mackey under the Ku Klux Klan Act for his internet postings of satirical memes. We obtained a copy of the filing for you here. This case has ignited concerns over free speech‚ especially in the context of political discourse and satire. AFL’s brief emphasizes that misleading or inaccurate speech about elections and political rivals‚ particularly satirical in nature‚ has been a staple in democratic societies. They argue that the government’s interpretation of Section 241 of the Ku Klux Klan Act in this case overreaches its historical and legal boundaries. AFL’s brief points out several issues with the government’s stance: The government’s broad interpretation of Section 241 surpasses its accepted limits. A narrow application of the government’s rewritten Section 241 is unfeasible. The government’s interpretation lacks definitive boundaries‚ raising concerns about its potential misuse. The interpretation invites the risk of selective prosecution. The government’s choice of venue further amplifies these concerns. AFL asserts that such a broad application of Section 241 by the government could lead to limitless future applications. Gene Hamilton‚ Vice President and General Counsel of America First Legal‚ voiced strong concerns about the Biden Administration’s approach to free speech and its handling of the DOJ. “If you have any doubts about the current state of affairs in the United States‚ the Biden Administration’s lack of respect for free speech‚ or the extent of the weaponization of the Department of Justice‚ the Biden Administration used the ‘KKK Act’ to prosecute Douglass Mackey for posting memes on social media. This unprecedented prosecution could set the stage for even more prosecutions by the Biden Administration for speech with which it disagrees. This cannot stand‚ and we are proud to file a brief in support of Mr. Mackey‚” said Hamilton. The post Legal Filing Defends Douglass Mackey’s Free Speech Rights appeared first on Reclaim The Net.
