  • He Shot at Bigfoot! | A Terrifying Sasquatch Paintball Encounter

    What started as a friendly nighttime game of paintball in Pennsylvania turned into a terrifying encounter with something neither teenager expected!

    On this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, host Dano welcomes Brian Goddard from Cleveland, Ohio, founder and lead investigator of Cryptid Paranormal LLC, to share an unforgettable Sasquatch encounter from when he was just 16 years old.

    Around 10 PM, Brian and his friend were playing paintball in the Pennsylvania woods when Brian circled around and spotted what he believed was his buddy. He began firing paintballs, but when the mysterious figure stood up, he realized IT WASN'T HIS FRIEND… IT WAS A SASQUATCH!

    Even more unsettling, the creature didn't appear angry. Instead, it began walking toward them!

    Join Dano as Brian recounts this extraordinary Bigfoot encounter and the terrifying moment an innocent game of paintball became something neither teenager would ever forget.

  • BIGFOOT ON ALL FOURS? | 3 Witnesses See Creature VANISH in Algonquin Park

    How does a large, dark creature simply vanish behind a single bush—with three witnesses watching?

    On this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, host Dano welcomes Noel from Canada to share an unforgettable camping and canoeing experience deep in Ontario's Algonquin Provincial Park.

    What started as a relaxing wilderness getaway quickly turned into a nightmare. After a frightening encounter with a mother black bear and her cub, Noel and his friends became lost while navigating the park's remote waterways and trails.

    While paddling across a secluded lake, the three spotted a large, dark figure moving down a hillside toward the shoreline. Believing it might be another bear, they approached for a closer look.

    But then something extraordinary happened.

    The mysterious figure disappeared behind a single large bush—and never came out.

    Despite approaching within 15–20 feet, they found no trace of it.

    Years later, Noel returned to Algonquin Park and discovered a mysterious barefoot-looking footprint near the water's edge, raising even more questions about what he had witnessed.

    And perhaps most compelling of all? Both of Noel's companions still remember the mysterious figure and its unexplained disappearance.

    Was it a bear, a Sasquatch, or something else entirely?

    Join Dano and Noel as they revisit this chilling Canadian wilderness mystery and search for answers.
