Untitled episode

foreign my name is Eric the host of paranormal Highway today's interview is with text from text front porch a lot of you know him as Bigfoot Channel which his channel talks more than just Bigfoot they're not a channel they're afraid to talk about any subject out there but the question was why does text do it what what made him want to do the research and what's

intriguing about what I've heard is yes it has something to do with Bigfoot but if you haven't heard of the dog man you know Dogman is another you know I don't even know exactly what a dog man is is I know it's a type of a Bigfoot some people say dog man's more towards a werewolf versus a Bigfoot and you know I really truly don't know

and what's intriguing to me is what is the dog man now Tex has stories that has encountered him when he was 16 years old with the dog man and I don't know exactly if his story is going to give me the answers that I'm looking for you know there's two questions here right is is Bigfoot real now for myself that I had experience when I was

a kid with the Bigfoot I believe he's real and I know text believes Bigfoot is real but is Doc man the same as Bigfoot are they the same are they not and are they different and what kind of story does he have that changed his life to where he wants to learn more on what happened to him kick back grab some popcorn grab some coffee grab

some soda whatever it takes and what I do here on this channel is I bring text up uninterrupted tell us a story uninterrupted and then from his story from his story I will ask him three to four questions and I'll give you my final thoughts on on his story so going forward some of you may have heard the story some of you may not but this

is this is what opened my eyes to what else is out there it uh it happened when I was 16. that and and I'm and I'm old enough to part Dash folks so that was an 82 I believe um as many years as it's been and it's been a day or two it still never fails when I really get down to the knitty ingredient get it

in depth on on when I'm talking about the encounter it never fails to kind of rattle me a little bit um but anyway let's get into it because this this when you talk about life-changing ordeals this this was mine um as far as you know the co-crypted and paranormal thing goes because I I'll just you know like everybody else I just thought it was Hollywood you

know um Lon Chaney running around the woods with the old gypsy woman this stuff is real and it's out there I was raised up just an old country boy Barefoot country kid over here in North Texas [Music] it wasn't nothing for me from the age of 12. if I remember Alex when Daddy got my first shotgun for me [Music] um it was nothing for me to

take off and go camping just me and the dog for a couple of days you know as I told Mom and Daddy where I was going and you know where I'd be and when I'd get back there they were fine with it Daddy had taught me well I ran trap lines I went fishing I went hunting the whole nine yards [Music] I had been on one

of these little hunting trips just a day trip out to my favorite area and I'll tell you a little bit about that area a little later I was walking home we had 20 acres at the time and we had a gravel road that bordered the side of our place on the left side if you're walking towards the main road and then the main road crossed in

front of the top of our place and then our driveway was along on the opposite side and it went all the way down from the top to the bottom because our house set back about midways down so I was walking up the gravel road from the place where I was hunting had a couple of rabbits on my belt and a 410 with uh no shells and

[Music] I was just about to drop jump though we had a five-story and Bob wire fence around our place and I was just about to jump over the fence and make a beeline to the house you know want to go a long way and uh this thing it was we lived down in the valley so a little small Valley so the sun had went down below

the hill on my West which was my left and but it hadn't went down to her past the Horizon so I it was plenty daylight Pony daylight and there was a white Gravel Road there was you know there was gonna be no mistaking what what I'm fixing to tell you about this critter busted out of the brush on my left hand side and ran across the

road in front of me and then Dove over a barbed wire fence now that in itself don't sound like much [Music] but the thing about it is when he busted out of the brush on my left hand side he was on two legs he was about seven and a half feet tall and he was he was built and he was definitely male he was covered in

not thick hair it was [Music] almost straggly it was thin you can see the charcoal like skin under under it you can see the muscles the hair would hang down about [Music] four inches off his arm you know and the same thing on his Jaws [Music] and it sticks almost like my beard [Music] but not a stick [Music] he had a uh I called it a

Mane at the time I'm still not too sure what it is but the started this hairline did real thick hair real long hair starting at hairline down as banished down in the back of his head on your shoulders and down in his back down his back in a fee um this Cruise legs his thighs are like tree trunks I mean they were huge but he was

real it was Barrel tested narrow hip his arms wasn't like really huge that he was cut [Music] all can say that if I had my choice I'd have rather run into a Bigfoot because back then the coin the term dog man hadn't even been coined yet the only thing I knew to call it was a werewolf you didn't have the outer proportion huge head that'll you

hear a lot but it was definitely canine it wouldn't it didn't have the the long nerve will snout it was a shorter blunter snout um almost like a Saint Bernard [Music] he was salt and pepper cutter mostly mostly pepper but he did have some salt in his in his coat I don't remember him having a tail I could sit down and draw it and every time

I draw it I don't draw it with a tail [Music] he had human-esque hands but they weren't human they were human asked he had for a lack of a better term I guess you'd call him claws but they weren't overly long they were black just really long fingernails but they they were black a lot of people say when they they talk about these Critters that they've

got backward facing legs they got you know the hawk they call Hawk and I think a lot of people are misidentifying that because I thought about this for a long time and what it looked like to me was what people are calling the hawk it's just his heel because this one had a narrow feet he was up on his coals in that Hill came back and

made it look like a hawk but it was revealed he was just up on his toes he uh his ears were sitting down kind of low on his head knocking way up high like the German Shepherds and you know the Anubis things you see you know that kind of stuff but they were pinned back or you know an old dog or a horse they'll get upset

and they'll pin them over ears back the immature I've got frozen in my mind [Music] is when he's about Midway cross the road in front of me and he was only about 25 feet away he turned his head and he kind of growled at me but I didn't get that uh a lot of people describe it dog man sickness I didn't get that now don't get

me wrong folks it was an underwear changing moment [Music] but uh I didn't I didn't get that scented to red or anything like that it scared the hell out of me but [Music] the thing I say I say that I was going to say this weird thing but this whole thing is weird you don't believe me I understand I wouldn't believe me either this is a

it is these things are not supposed to exist but they do and so there's a lot of other stuff [Music] but what stood out to me one thing stood up to me was when he growled at me you know he kind of had his mouth about halfway open [Music] well let's roll back a little bit he didn't have a mouthful of naughty looking teeth he just

had canine looking teeth his guns and his in his tongue was pink and black mottled and the reason that stood out to me is if nothing else that told me right there that he was canine because there's an old wives tale that if you're looking for a smart dog get one with black in his mouth now a lot of people will say when they see when

they see these things they've got red glowing eyes they got gold or yellow eyes or Amber eyes or anything like that I think that's eye shadow machine gotta hope it is [Music] you know most dogs have brown eyes that's what it looked like just no dog's eyes [Music] anyway he [Music] he run he he run across in front of the run across the road in front

of me and didn't jump he Dove over the fence and that's under we have what we call love grass and it gets up about three sometimes four feet high in that part of the pasture was covered in that he Dove over and when he hit the ground he went down to all fours it was a very smooth transition there wasn't no popping attendings of tendons or

anything like that real smooth it went down on all fours I saw the grass move for about 10-15 yards I need to call and at this point I had a decision to make and I know this is a long drawn-out story folks but it happened in a matter of seconds so did the decisions [Music] I could even follow him into the tall grass or take the

long way home I wasn't gonna follow him in the long grass that wasn't gonna happen so I took a long way now that took me up the road across the front of our place and back down our driveway the whole walk is a pretty much a blur except for I remember turning the first corner and I remember walking in the door at the house when an

original remember I think that when I hit the when I hit the corner I thought to myself you know I'm sitting here with a gun with no damn ammo in it I got basically a three foot club with me maybe I'll get a swing any before he chews me up the next real memory I have is walking in the back door of the house I walked

in the back door my mama had to grow a roll that no guns were allowed in the kitchen but I walked in walked down the hallway pretty much collapsed in the kitchen chair put my gun on the kitchen tight my mom was standing in the kitchen I don't remember what she was doing she was you know washing dishes cooking whatsoever I don't know it's like she

turned around I think she's fixing to scold me you know for the gun she looked at me she says oh my God what's wrong with it you're white as a ghost and I tried to tell her I couldn't speak my sister lived about 40 yards away drain property she called my sister she'd come over and it took them better part of an hour to calm me

down enough where I could help and tell them what had happened and when I did they didn't tell me I was lying they didn't tell me I was crazy they knew I was scared but they tried to reason it out well maybe you know you saw a wolf maybe you saw a big dog maybe you saw what we you know would call them hobo hobo at

the time you know you're scared you in your imagination to go when I stuck to my guns throughout the years and after time they came to accept what I was telling them you know and uh [Music] it took me probably about six to eight months I was I know you know I was at that point I was I was scared I didn't want to go anywhere

I didn't hardly Adventure away from the house at all if I had to go down if I went down to feed the animals I went bloated for back there if I was over my sister's house or I had to go over my sister's house or whatever and it was dark it was at a dead run and we have we had a lot of people call Booger

latch I think there's nothing more than a Street Lamp but that's all the light we had you know outside [Music] so that went on for about like I said six to eight months and then I guess about after six months it started the whole the scared thing because I was I was thinking about this all the time all the time what was this thing [Music] Why

didn't it kill me had every opportunity and it came to realization to me [Music] but he didn't want to because it had the chance so I started going back out baby steps a little at a time you know after about eight months I was back doing what I what I what I used to do because frankly it made me mad after a point because I felt

like I was being bullied you know one thing about me I can't stand the bully [Music] so I decided I wasn't going to let this thing keep me from doing what I love to do so I started going back out yeah I guess it was [Music] [Applause] [Laughter] about eight ten months later I was gallivanting around I was going back after my favorite hunting spot now

my my spot that I hunted was one half of an old boy's property that I had permission to go on and that's how that's how it worked out gender in the country a lot of y'all you know y'all people been married out of the country you know you get permission you know go on somebody's land [Music] hear their eyes and ears of their place because you're

going to see places that they're big places you're gonna you're gonna cease to you know see places that they normally don't go look at they don't want to and if there's a problem you bring it to the attention or you just you tell them hey I found this I fixed it you know down fence whatever or you go up and you tell them hey I found

this but I can't fix it by myself they come down you get you help them fix it that's just how it was and this will go ahead about 1200 Acres one half of it he had in Hay and the other half he hadn't done nothing with them it was thick [Music] so thick that you had to travel the game trails sometimes you down your hands and

knees doing it but the way I got to this place there was a Deadfall that we hadn't took care of yet and fell over the fence you know I just Scamper up that Deadfall and jump over and go into the the green pearls you'd be walking down through the game trails and then in you know it would open up into a clearing these clearings would be

anywhere just you know worming up to slow down a can or sleeping bag up to a footprint of a small house and they had just a little 12 about 12 feet 12 about 12 inch progress in it maybe a scrub you know scrub oak or a you know Mesquite tree in it perfect but anyway I was just about to go up and jump on this Deadfall

and I heard something walking in the trees [Music] whatever it was it was on two legs now there was a set of twins that lived on the other side of this place and they hunted it too and I knew them I went to school with them [Music] and uh I hollered out I said hey who's out there and stop I said David Doug that one of

y'all ain't [__] in its weight [Music] I said hey that's one of y'all holler at me it shifted its weight again I said look whoever that is out there if you don't say something I'm going to shoot and just shifted his weight again well I popped the round off up in the air which in hindsight probably wasn't the smartest thing to do that's when all hell

broke loose whatever this was and I inclined to think that it was this Critter again he come busted through the brush I didn't wait to see you I ain't proud I'll tell you no text took till and he ran never looked back if this thing was fixing to snatch me up I didn't want to know about it it's about a mile and a half or so

back to the house I never slowed down [Music] it didn't take me quite as long to get back to doing what I was doing this time so I wasn't going to let this thing stop me this is twice that he'd had me in his size you know he didn't hurt me to me there was something to that [Music] now back forward years and years and years

later something I think it was in 2016 maybe maybe 2015. I was at work you know poking around YouTube I started seeing this thing called dog man everybody was talking about I found this one old gals Channel Danielle stood in our channel to Funk Bell but great Gail then when I was listening to some of her stuff I decided to call in or get a hold

of her and tell her my story and I did now in the course of meat was talking she said she started asking the questions did I have anything happen before the end before my siding or anything that that was strange I said well you know I mean we didn't consider it strange but we would nothing get a report of you know a marriage that had dropped

a foal and either her the foal got tore up or whatever or you know same thing with a count of calf or somebody have chicken missing or whatever and I get a dog killed [Music] but it always got written off on either a big cat roaming through the area or a pack of wild dogs seems like there's always story about a pack of wild dogs coming

to near you be on the lookout I never saw a pack of wild dogs never [Laughter] we had a dog we went missing no one the only way we found him was when we started stinking when we started smelling and he was underneath the house well [Music] so I got volunteered to crawl under there and I drug him out and when I drug him out getting

an awful shape [Music] it looked like somebody had just held him up by the front front legs and just gutted him [Music] now knowing what I know now [Music] these critters have a tendency to when they kill a dog or something like that on somebody's property they'll catch them underneath a structure I don't know why but that seems to be the [Music] a common denominator a

lot of conversations out here she said well you have anything else weird I said well I said a place that was next to the place I hunted there's these folks that neither own the place or anything I don't know what they did but they didn't live there we've had about I don't know six eight horses over there that's where they kept them they'd show up on

the weekend to ride their horses and stuff like that they just up and moved out they just came got their horses and left [Music] of course being a nosy ass kid I wandered over on the property got to poking around a little bit and I found a um almost a fully intact horse skeleton still had some hide left on it and uh at that time I

just thought it was cool bring a horse goal back to have it in the rock garden well the thing about it was kind of weird about this this horse it wasn't scattered to the Four Winds like normally a you know the dead animal would be just pretty much right there where he died everything was pretty much intact she said well it may have very well been

a kill site that Critter might have killed that horse and that's why they took they just took the rest of horses on the left you didn't say nothing to nobody [Music] never had anything else happen never heard anything nothing like that but I knew he was out there I mean he'd been around a lot longer than just me running into him evidently a lot of people

that have stories usually their encounter is just one time your encounter it's twice not not is it twice that in your opinion that this is the exact same dog man you saw the first time or maybe there's a chance of the second time somebody gets another kind of a dog man you know what I mean sorry I'm gonna shake the chili bumps off every time I

get into that story um I feel and that's the only thing I can so I can I can no one can describe it I feel it it's just saying further [Music] um and could it it may have it could have been a Bigfoot it could have been another Critter but in my bones I really feel like it was the same Critter and in your personal opinion

do you feel that there is a major difference between a dog man versus a Bigfoot that they're different totally different species no doubt in my mind what I saw was canine [Music] he said seven seven foot half tall man I asked like how tall are you by any chance six feet six feet so you could tell I'm six feet myself and I I would be able

to tell something seven foot and you said that you uh you're almost sure that it's a male a dog man versus a female you don't know oh you know oh yeah I mean he didn't have the Johnson hanging out but he you could definitely tell it was it was a male you know I mean you see a dog walking off from you know his middle let

me put it that way like I said I've been taking notes here and you said like you live like about 20 acres so it sounds like you had two major sightings not like close to each other I mean like I said you had six eight months that you were scared and then you know when you saw this twice so this thing is territorial is telling me

that that it that's his home because if if I I know you can't it's hard to prove anything but you if you know for a fact that you feel that it is the same one then it's definitely territorial yeah I think he was living in that place that I hunted I don't know what he was doing up there by the house I don't know why it

came running through the brush I don't know if I if I woke him up he was taking a nap or he was eating he was eating on something I don't know what happened or he was just chasing so I don't know but he he wasn't no more worried about me than the man in the moon when he run across the road and I feel for you

because it's one thing to go to the pop public no you know it is a little bravery to be on social media to tell your story it's one thing to say no Bigfoot's real do you know everybody have heard the word Bigfoot right but here you are telling the story no I don't think it was Bigfoot I think it was dog man you know the the

look you must have get I say the word Bigfoot you're saying the word dog man people must it must be hard because people must be looking and you're like you're crazy because Bigfoot was one thing you're saying dog man how do you I mean have you had people look at you like you're nuts what does dog Master are you you're crazy have you experienced a lot

of people like that I have not only been had them look at me like that I've had them flat out tell me hours you know um but you know I've had them flat out tell me I was lying you know um I came out with a proverbial closet at work uh several years ago about this and uh I figured I'm 50 some odd years old I'm

you know I'm setting my career the hell do I care right you know you're so right about that it had an effect it had an effect I deal with I I'm I'm chastised about it almost on a daily basis um and uh my credibility took a hit and and that that is [Music] that is probably the main driving reason I started doing when i'm doing just

shatters your reality [Music] you know I know no I feel you uh you know eventually I'll be doing my story of the Bigfoot but mine's not my uh kind of a happier kind of a one now you've been researching in a lot of different ways doing shows by any chance have you ever tried to find that family who left to try to find out from now

why they left you and I have a good idea why they left but by any chance have you were able to contact any of that family late years later no I I've never even tried um I didn't even know their name then trying to find it out now would probably be impossible um yeah they probably gotta have like kids or young people like yourself that's still

around you know but that story alone right there kind of tells you something that [Music] for somebody just to pick up and leave I pick a belief out of nowhere and tell nobody unless they didn't like neighbors they kept to themselves but most people in country towns they know they know your neighbors you you know you know people in your town you're more personal with people

in your in a smaller town versus a city I'm from a small town called Kerman outside of Fresno and Kerman we all know we knew each other for you just to pick up and leave and never hear something from a neighbor or anybody else on why they left something scare them to leave yeah yeah I believe it I believe that wholeheartedly and so my last question

for for this for the story is what do you do now where are you at now in your life because of that what are you doing exactly like right now coming up like tomorrow because of what happened to you [Music] the dog is the dog is like like telling you something's outside yeah right on cue um I'm into doing the field research of course I've got

my channel going [Music] um you know and and I've been actively do I've been actively researching since I think about 2016. and I've had two daylight Bigfoot sightings out there in my research area I've had multiple uh one one night time that I can now this is totally got well I can't say it's off topic because I've had three four four encounters three sightings and one

encounter that I can in my in my mind I can write off as physical as a physical creature out there okay that two daylight savings one nighttime sighting and then whatever it was throwing rocks at me one night so [Music] but the other encounters I cannot sit here and tell you that they weren't paranormal in nature so we almost got a whole other story and I

mean our our most recent outing that we had we brought back in for Christmas you know and I don't know if you've had a chance to see that or not on our Channel but it's there and uh I mean it's they're they're pretty damn convincing they were all over our truck all over both two trucks I want to say I want to thank you very much

for uh coming on um to do this interview with me and tell us your story um you know something like that I really wish upon people that they don't have to go through something like that and for you to do that I appreciate it I want to thank you for uh something on here people I'm going to give you guys uh my final thoughts and if

you're not subscribed to text fronts Parts Channel you should you just heard them he's got a lot of great content a lot of great interviews and he's more than just talking about dog man and Bitcoin they talk paranormal they'll talk UFOs anything that people that Society might think differently about something they're not afraid to talk about it so please uh check out their Channel and let

me give you guys my final thoughts their stories and their stories well there's always questions about is Bigfoot real or not for me personally he's real I have an encounter that one day I'll be doing a story where I'm gonna have someone to interview me like this I'll tell you my Bigfoot story but this story was so unique because we're not talking big foot you know

my story about Bigfoot is nothing like what he's been through just imagine you're at your home your home your home is where your home is where the heart is the home is where you put your hat up that's your own home you know 20 acres you go out there you experience this from your own home what does that do to somebody not a Bigfoot a dog

man the six eight months later you're living with this and you know you're scared you finally get The Bravery to get back out there and you haven't experience again he knows that it's the same one can he prove that it's the exact same one it's impossible but he knows he feels it here at the same one twice and then erase up some good questions like why

did it eat cardinal Dogma has a chance maybe he's territorial maybe he you know maybe he knew their family he sees them he kind of wants to remind him that I know you're there I know you're there tax anytime I want I'll take you away you better respect this land you better respect your surroundings you better respect us I'm watching you and I can't remember twice

[Music] I can't imagine what that like I said my story is nothing like that [Music] words what go through life like that it's just it's just I admire tax because that's hard I didn't find Social you know find people to to believe your story to listen to your story like I said you're not talking about a Bigfoot you're talking about a dog man it's totally different

than a big boy and more of a werewolf that's got to be hard and heart goes out to him and anybody that has to have that kind of experience in that way it's just it's horrifying and so guys and remember just remember this if you yourself gone through a story like that there are channels like text front porch you know my channel um big Bigfoot Michigan

Bigfoot Michigan rob you know is his partner on a lot of his channels and stuff and and there are people that are willing to listen to you and they're not going to criticize you they're not going to say get out of here you know they're willing to listen and let me tell you something when you have something like that that's bottled down on your heart you

know inside just talking about it helps there are channels like his mine other channels that are willing to listen to you and give you a platform to tell us your story because we know that'll help you so disguise like I said just keep your ears open is open listen to your surroundings because they're there they exist and I hope in a weird strange way you enjoy

this kind of interview I hate to say the word enjoy because you're you're enjoying something that somebody had to go through fear it's always weird to hear to say hope you enjoyed this it's like enjoying something evil that happened to somebody but I hope you enjoy it it's but you guys know what I'm talking about hopefully this will tell you that you know is this the

answer for you to know they exist that's only up to you it's only up to you and I appreciate you guys being here and hopefully I'll see you guys next time the Paranormal Highway
