The Cryptid Podcast

IT WAS TRYING TO FLANK ME 

What happens when a cryptid researcher becomes the eyewitness?

On this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, host Dano sits down with Marcus Ellis from Mississippi, an experienced cryptid investigator and Region 5 Director for the North American Dogman Project (NADP) who also serves as a member of its Special Investigations Unit.

Marcus brings years of experience in the field, including a background in Bigfoot research, but some of his most compelling evidence comes from encounters of his own. He shares his Bigfoot encounters, including the unforgettable moment he turned around in a research area and caught a Bigfoot moving across the trail behind him—as if it were attempting to flank him.

But Bigfoot is only part of Marcus's story.

Marcus also discusses his Dogman encounter, evidence gathered during investigations, what he's learned from years of cryptid research, and his theories about what these unexplained creatures could be. Are researchers dealing with undiscovered flesh-and-blood animals, something more complex—or phenomena we still don't fully understand?

This episode goes beyond stories and into the perspective of an investigator who has spent time in the field searching for answers—and has had encounters of his own.

A Face Through My Car 

What is lurking in the Australian bush?

On this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, host Dano welcomes Samantha from Sydney, Australia, who shares a series of incredible and unexplained encounters that have left her searching for answers.

At around 5:00 AM, Samantha heard bizarre vocalizations that she can only compare to the legendary Sierra Sounds. Then there were strange incidents involving her horses—including discovering what appeared to be braids in a horse's mane.

But one of her most unsettling experiences happened while she was riding her horse near Marramarra National Park. Samantha looked toward her car and noticed something she wasn't expecting: a face staring back at her through the vehicle's windows from the other side of the car.

What was watching her? Could these experiences be connected? And could Samantha's encounters have anything to do with reports of the mysterious Australian Yowie?

Samantha takes Dano through these experiences, what she witnessed and heard, and several other strange encounters that have occurred around her.

This is one Australian cryptid encounter you won't want to miss.

GO, GET OUT NOW!!

What was hiding behind the tree in The Meadow?

On this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, host Dano welcomes Chris from Texas, a State Representative for the North American Dogman Project (NADP), for a conversation filled with strange and unsettling encounters.

Chris takes us back to an afternoon when she decided to spend some time alone in an area known as “The Meadow.” While walking a familiar trail she had traveled many times before, something suddenly changed.

A group of coyotes erupted nearby—then abruptly went silent.

Not long afterward, Chris began hearing movement in the woods. Feeling that something wasn't right, she decided to get out of there and started heading back toward her truck.

Then she turned around.

Reaching from behind a tree was a large, hairy arm ending in a massive clawed hand. Whatever it belonged to remained concealed on the other side of the tree.

But The Meadow encounter is only part of Chris's story. She also shares other strange encounters and unexplained experiences she's had, giving us a deeper look into why she became involved with investigating reports of these mysterious creatures.

What was following Chris through the woods? Why did the coyotes suddenly go silent? What was attached to that clawed hand—and how do her other encounters fit into the larger mystery?

Join Dano and Chris on The Cryptid Podcast for a journey into Dogman encounters, cryptid sightings, unexplained experiences, and the mysteries still hiding in the woods.

Tonight My Special Guest Patrick Bryan from the NADP returns to go over and tell us about some of the most profound media evidence regarding Dogman.

RD CAME RUNNING BACK

Adam had heard RD make plenty of sounds before—but never one like this.

On this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, host Dano welcomes Adam, who shares a series of strange and unexplained encounters from his own property.

During one unsettling incident, Adam was gathering firewood when his dog RD ran off into the woods. Then Adam heard RD make a strange noise he had never heard him make before. Moments later, RD came racing out of the woods and jumped into the back of Adam's truck, immediately turning around and staring toward the same woods he had just fled.

What happened to RD out there—and what was he watching in the tree line?

This was only one of the unusual encounters Adam describes from his property. Join Dano as he digs into Adam's experiences and the possibility that something unexplained may be moving through those woods.

That's Not My Uncle

At just 16 years old, Anthony from Louisiana, went hunting with his uncle and a friend on a secluded 200-acre property they had permission to hunt. Vehicles weren’t allowed, so everything had to be done on foot. A gas company was also leasing the property, but the landowner had one strict rule—all workers had to be off the property by 5 PM.

Anthony, his uncle, and his friend went in afterward to get an evening hunt in.

As darkness approached, it was time to meet back up—but Anthony’s uncle wasn't there.

After waiting and calling out for him, Anthony and his friend finally saw someone emerge from the woods and begin walking toward them down the dirt access road.

At first, Anthony thought it was his uncle.

Then the figure got closer.

It wasn't his uncle.

What Anthony and his friend were watching was something much larger—and something neither of them expected to encounter on that isolated property.

Join Dano, host of The Cryptid Podcast, as Anthony takes us back to the night a routine hunting trip turned into a terrifying encounter and describes the moment he realized the figure walking toward them may have been Bigfoot.
