Before the famous footprints, before the Patterson film, there were centuries of Sasquatch encounters across America. Wild men in the woods, miners under siege, and paranormal beings that defy explanation — these are the Bigfoot stories most people have never heard. IN THIS EPISODE: It all started with a bunch of footprints at a construction site. Or at least the modern-day fascination with “Bigfoot” did. Stories of hairy giants in the woods and wandering “wild men” had been a part of American lore for nearly two centuries by the time the nickname “Bigfoot” was coined in the late 1950s. But it was then, with the advent of television and the modern media, that chasing down giants in the woods became a national craze.  SOURCES:Taken from the book, "Cabinet of Curiosities" by Troy Taylor: https://amzn.to/3EMhYRz Weird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. =====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.
