What if it's True Podcast
The What if its True Podcast features odd stories from ordinary people like you and me. Each episode will have one or more stories the writers claim are true. You can dismiss them as told by folks with great imaginations. You might even call them liars. Most people do. If you're like me though, there is always that nagging question you ask, but can't get an answer to. That question: What if it's True?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support.

Bigfoot Stalks American Indian

Bigfoot Stalks American Indian
Growing up in a Native American community, the narrator was taught about Bigfoot as a fundamental part of life, akin to basic safety lessons. This cultural knowledge emphasized coexisting with Bigfoot by avoiding interaction, a practice rooted in an unspoken agreement to mutual non-interference. As a high school senior living in a rural, wooded area, the narrator experienced a chilling encounter one night while walking home. They detected bipedal steps pacing them in the dark, a presence that became more assertive as it deliberately made louder noises. Using a passing vehicle’s headlights as a di...

Grandmother Called in a Bigfoot

Grandmother Called in a Bigfoot
Many moons ago, on the Glover River in McCurtain County, Oklahoma, my grandparents were at a fishing spot they called the Big Hole. They were busy catfishing when they heard a yell from up the river. For the fun of it, my grandma decided to mimic the sound and yelled right back.Â
Not long after, they heard a huge splashing from up the river coming toward them, as if a large animal was quickly approaching. As the splashing sound got closer, they started feeling uneasy and decided to pack up and leave.Â

Police Confirm Bigfoot

Police Confirm Bigfoot
In July 2010, a city police officer in Spencer County, Indiana, experienced an unsettling encounter while staying alone at a friend's house on a large, forested property. Late at night, while unpacking on his day off, he felt an eerie sense of being watched. Dismissing it initially, he continued his tasks with his sidearm on. However, the situation escalated when a rock struck the front window, prompting him to grab his shotgun and step onto the porch, suspecting trespassers. There, he spotted a large silhouette at the tree line, roughly 40 yards away, standing nearly eye-level with...
Mt St Helens Bigfoot

Mt St Helens Bigfoot
In the mid-1960s, Butch's fascination with Bigfoot began after overhearing his father's conversation and reading an Argosy magazine article about 1930s gold prospectors in Ape Canyon near Mount St. Helens, who encountered curious but non-threatening Bigfoot creatures, culminating in a violent boulder-throwing incident after one was shot. This sparked a lifelong passion for Bigfoot hunting with his father, including camping trips south of Mount St. Helens where they heard tree knocking and whoops, and visits to local prospectors in Cougar, who confirmed peaceful interactions with Bigfoot and shared stories of the Ape Canyon...

Bullet Proof Bigfoot

Bullet Proof Bigfoot
In Southern Virginia, a 14-year-old and his friend encountered terrifying creatures during outdoor activities. While archery hunting, they spotted what seemed like a bear cub, but it stood upright, snarled, and fled, leaving the friend traumatized. Years later, while fishing and checking trail cameras, the narrator, now 6'7" and 240 pounds, encountered a ten-foot-tall, brownish-blonde, hairy creature. When it charged, he fired #4 buckshot, but the pellets seemed to bounce off. The creature roared as if speaking and retreated into the forest. Both incidents left the narrator and his friend unwilling to return to those...

Bigfoot Looks Like a Human

Bigfoot Looks Human
A Native American woman, accustomed to solitary wilderness adventures, recounts a vivid encounter from nearly 20 years ago at a crowded beach in northeastern Washington. While kayaking with family, she lingered alone offshore to eat lunch and felt uneasy. Spotting a tall, handsome man with silver-tipped body hair watching her intently from the shore, she initially mistook him for an elderly human. As she paddled closer, she realized he was not elderly but a striking, eight-foot-tall being, naked and covered in glossy hair, exuding intelligence and a human-like presence. Despite his non-threatening demeanor, he vanished into...

This Was NOT a Shadow - BIGFOOT
In December 2018, while hunting in Michigan during late bow season, a man, grieving the recent loss of their mother’s horse, ventured onto a forbidden property with a crossbow. While stalking a deer trail toward a meadow, they experienced dizziness and, upon reaching the meadow’s edge, spotted two Sasquatches—a massive 12-foot-tall male with black and brown hair and a 10-foot-tall blonde female—walking away. The sight of their immense size, compared to a nearby maple tree and the narrator’s own height, was initially terrifying, nearly ending their passion for hunting. H...

Werewolves and Demons
Story 1
In Stone River, a seemingly typical American town with familiar seasonal events like carnivals and Christmas parades, a dark secret sets it apart: strict rules govern residents' lives to protect them from monstrous, bipedal wolf-like creatures that inhabit the surrounding woods and prey on humans. These rules, such as never traveling alone or leaving windows open at night, stem from centuries-old local lore about these creatures, which have claimed numerous lives, including newcomers like E.G. Parker and his crew in the 1940s, and local teens Alan and Lisa in the 1970s, whose gruesome...

Bigfoot Destroys Heavy Equipment

Bigfoot Destroys Heavy Equipment
Bill, a forest ranger student and Timber Cruiser in Eureka, California, worked alone on weekends marking redwood trees for logging. One Monday, he and the logging crew arrived at their forest landing—a cleared area for storing equipment and fuel—to find an astonishing scene: three 55-gallon fuel drums had been thrown down a hill, a locked tool shed was overturned, and, most unbelievably, three 54-ton D-9 Caterpillar tractors had been flipped onto their sides. The crew was baffled by the immense strength required for such feats, and no explanation for the mysterious incident was...

As a kid infatuated with Bigfoot, I worked summers for my dad's painting business, where I met a crew member from Louisiana who shared a chilling tale. His uncle, a seasoned big game hunter, ventured into a notorious Louisiana swamp to hunt a Sasquatch, only to be found days later, nearly dead, aged, and paralyzed, claiming he’d become the hunted. Undeterred, the nephew and his friends entered the same swamp for revenge and deer hunting, but their first night turned chaotic when an eerie silence, a foul odor, and a towering creature with glowing ey...

Though initially skeptical, the sighting left the child questioning whether Ole Red was a released pet or a wil...

Bigfoot Not as Mean as the Drug Cartels

Living on a poor turnip farm, a young boy was sent to fetch water one night. On the way back from the stream, he encountered a terrifying, giant hairy creature with eerie green eyes, causing him to scream and abandon the bucket in a panicked dash back to the house. His father, skeptical of the story, dismissed it as foolishness and insisted they retrieve the water, accompanying him to the porch but making him return alone. The boy spotted the creature again near the barn while retrieving the bucket, but his father nonchalantly suggested it was just bathing, leaving the...
Even Pit Bulls are Afraid of Bigfoot

A woman and her husband once enjoyed the lighthearted hobby of exploring Bigfoot lore, often visiting Bankhead National Forest and joking about spotting the creature, until a chilling encounter changed her perspective. After adopting a pit bull named Bond, who began refusing to go outside at night, she experienced a terrifying moment when a loud, unidentifiable growl and howl erupted nearby while walking him, causing the dog to drag her back into the house in fear. This incident, coupled with strange deer behavior on their rural property and childhood memories of unexplained noises dismissed by adults, left her questioning what...
Bigfoot Stood in the Road

A social worker driving a 15-year-old foster child from Feather County through Lassen National Park encountered an unexpected and surreal event. As they navigated the treacherous mountain pass, the teen requested to play her music, a brief moment of normalcy overshadowed by the fading light and dangerous curves. Suddenly, a massive, jet-black creature—later identified as a Bigfoot—emerged onto the road, forcing the social worker to slam on the brakes and swerve, narrowly avoiding both the beast and a deadly drop. The car skidded to a stop, tires screeching and the air thick with the smell of burning rubb...
