This has been several years ago some time around 1996 or 1997, I can’t remember the year not. It was in September and very warm. A friend of mine and I decided we would take our mountain bikes for a ride down through what is called the basin in Poplar, North Carolina which is in Mitchell Co. This is about a 7 mile trip from the top of the mountain down and back out. We left my truck at the bottom and hauled the bikes up in my friends truck. After we made it down off the steep part of the mountain trail, the old road had some steep parts and we were pushing our bikes. We came around a bend in the road where there was a small hollow with some type of bushes that has little red berry’s. We heard a noise and looked, probably 35 yards away, I saw the back of something tall jump through the bushes. It looked maybe 8 or 10 feet tall.. All I saw was it’s back. It has long shaggy brown hair. I couldn’t see it’s head as it appeared in a leaping position going away from us. All I saw was the back of something large and hairy. I asked my friend what was that, he said I don’t know.. we knew it wasn’t a bear or a deer. The bear around here are back bear and they don’t have long hair, and neither do the white tail deer we have around here. What was so strange was we went over to the thicket to investigate. We stood silent for a minute or so and it got so quite. This is a very wooded place with leaves on the ground. We thought we could hear something run off. There was nothing. Just quite. We couldn’t find any track. None of the leaves on the other side of the thicket were disturbed as would have been natural if something had run up through the woods. The total quiet in the woods was kinda eerie, not even a bird sound. We are both experienced hunters and neither of us had ever seen anything like that.

This took place in 1997 not far off 157 about 6 or 7 miles south of Roxboro.It started about june.I started hearing this whistling that started around 10 or 10:30 at nite. I remember thinking . What kind of bird or animal whistles like this.This went on for about the whole summer.I allways keep the area mowed with my tractor down to the edge of the woods during the summer which is mabey a little over 100 yardsfrom my house.thats when i noticed some strange feces by the edge of the woods. It looked human but whatever it was had been eating a lot of leaves. Every time I go to the same spot during the summer there was somemore there. After the summer was over I dont remember quite when. but the whistling had stoped. so I thought whatever it was had left. In oct of that year I dont remember what day 2 of my brothers came over and we went squirrel hunting. On the way back to the house about 4:30 or 5:00 still plenty of daylight one of my brothers went one way and myself and my other brother made a circle came back around and met my other brouther. When we did he came running up to us very excited saying did you see that did you see that! It must have ran right past you. I told him we didn’t see anythang. I ask what he saw. Still excited he said he didn’t know what it was. He said he saw the back of this thing and it was gray. It didn’t run like a deer or dog or any kind of animal he could think of . I didn’t think to much more about it untill about a month later when the next thing hapened.It was in Nov it was 3:30 in the afternoon. I looked of my upstairs window and standing in the same location where i saw that strange feces Isaw these 2 cretures they were gray they were standing on 2 legs swaying back and forth. all i could thint of was what in the hell is that. I watched for about 10 sec. then i did something i shouldn’t have done. I ran outside to get a better look. When i did they were gone. I did go out there to take a look around but I didn’t see any tracks the ground was dry. that was the last time I had seen or heard anything. Sometime after it was all over I remembered something that hapened before any of this whistiling started. About 150 ft or so where i saw those 2 cretures standing there was an old barbed wire fence. In the top strand of this fence 4 ft off the ground was this long gray hair. It was 4 or 5 inches of hair on each side of the barb. I remember thinking at the time what kind of animal around here has gray hair this long. This area is in the southern part of Person co mostley wooded and some open fields. I didn’t a very long look at them so its hard to say how tall they were but they were taller than any four legged animal around here. A neighbor told me he also herd the whistleing. I have been looking at diffrent web sites about Big Foot and found a recording of a Big Foot whistle and its the same I heard.

I live in Old Fort, North Carolina. It is an extremely small town with a population of about 800. About a year ago I bought a new house. It’s in the woods well away from town ( not that 800 people is much of a town )!!!!!!!! Right after I moved in I started hearing strange sounds at night. There is “gibberish” that I can’t really understand. It kind of sounds like talking but I can never make out any words. I have heard some screams that are so blood crudling that I’ve actually went into the woods with a flashlight to see if a woman was hurt. My children often play outside until 9 or 9:30 pm ( if it’s not a school night!! ) and they have repeatedly seen something that they call ” The Brown Man “. They say he is bigger than a man and he is brown in color and all he does is stand at the edge of my front yard in the treeline and watches them play. They are not afraid because he has never ventured into the yard and if they try to approach him he runs away. Even though I have heard the strange sounds I’d never seen anything until last September. It was about 11 pm and I had to go to the pumphouse to get my toolbox. The pumphouse is not actually in my yard it is behind the treeline at the back of my house. The kids were playing a cd really loud and they were dancing around the house ( three kids can make alot of noise !!!!). I stepped out the front door and walked around the corner of the house and there he was. BF was standing not 5 feet from my sliding glass door. He was standing in the shadows looking in the door like he was totally fascinated with what my children were doing. I was so shocked that I just stopped and stared. He saw me at the same time I saw him. He was about 15 feet from me. There was such a shocked expression on his face that I now think it’s funny but then I was kinda shook up. He turned and ran into the woods. I’ve got no real idea how tall he was. My brother is 6 foot 4 inches tall and BF was alot taller than that. I would guess at least 7 feet. He is brown in color ( ’bout like a Hershey bar.) I have searched the woods repeatedly and I’ve never found a footprint but that’s not surprising considering the ground cover, leaves, rocks, etc. I’ve never been “into” BF until that night but I now own a night vision device and I sometimes sit in the backyard after the kids are asleep and just try to see him again. I have seen him at a distance. I just hope to get a photo one day.
