4-10-10 Allen County - "The Kentucky Vocalizations"

-------------------------------------------
Website submission on 1/27/11

City: Scottsville

Date:
4-10-10

Time: Midnight

Witnesses:
The late Billy Arndell (RIP) and The Scottsville Ghost Hunters

Phone Interview:

I had a two hour phone conversation with the witness Billy Arndell of The Scottsville Ghost Hunters. In my opinion, on April 10, 2010 he obtained the best sasquatch vocalizations to come out of Kentucky. It was midnight and his team was standing in the yard of an abandon house. A digital recorder had been left inside on a box by a window as the investigators were discussing their night's investigation. There were no windows in the house. They began hearing strange howls/moans off in the distance. The vocalizations started coming closer, sparking a few barking dogs. Billy said it seemed like it was approaching fairly rapidly. One of the members can be heard saying "that sounds like a bigfoot". They grabbed the rest of their gear and left promptly. Billy stated there's dense woods behind the house for at least for two miles, then some open fields, then more woods. Not knowing if he caught the vocalizations on his recorder, he was pleasantly surprised when he later reviewed the audio. He stated the vocalizations were much louder in person.

Although I knew right away these were sasquatch vocalizations, I wanted a sound expert, more specifically a "bigfoot sound expert" to review the audio file. Therefore I promptly sent the file over to my friend and fellow researcher, Mononga Hela. Mononga is a former U.S. Military Cryptologic Linguist who's specialty now is analyzing and documenting all bigfoot vocalizations. Over the past few years he has compiled a vast database of sasquatch sounds via the internet, friends and investigations. Here is what he had to say:

"I gave the file a good listen, then filtered it, and the listened to it again. Despite the overall quality of the recording, it is an astounding piece of evidence and ties together three different vocalization types that I've heard in numerous other possible sasquatch recordings. Among those three vocals are the low moan/howl, similar to the Ohio howl. Then a transition to more of a yell, which is frequently captured in Washington state, and finally an "aaahh" vocal which has been captured in many states (including your clip from Kentucky last October).

Here's a transcript of what I heard in the recording. First column is time in seconds into the recording. Second column you can ignore. Third column is my note:

3.552000000 0.256932 initial short howl

15.360000000 0.377079 faint aaahh continues
21.557333333 0.155268 foreground voices

55.968000000 0.332717 moaning howl
61.248000000 0.360444 moaning howl, obscured by voices
68.853333333 0.32902 howl climbs, breaks pitch

74.037333333 0.547135 aaahh start
74.506666666 0.375231 breaks to howl/yell
76.074666666 0.558226 breaks back to aaahh
78.741333333 0.36414 and breaks back to yell
80.405333333 0.473198 verbalization
81.642666666 0.597043 long descending aaahh, obscured
91.082666666 0.510166 aaahh trails off

Thanks a bunch for sharing this. It's a remarkable recording and based on the extensive audio base I have to compare it against, I wholly agree that its a sasquatch vocalization."

1-10-10 Crittenden County

Received a call from 2 witnesses on 1-15-09. While hunting in a similar area, only about a mile away from the report above, a large 6-7 ft black, upright creature was viewed in a tall grassy field. The witness's had been call blasting a distressed rabbit call from their truck up on a hill. When finished, around 8:00pm, they drove down the hill and around a corner. It was at this time the truck lights caught this creature standing in a meadow approximately 200 yards away. It turned it's head, took 5 or 6 steps, then slowly began crouching down as it made it's way to the tree line. We were fortunate to interview the witnesses 2 days later on camera. We did not tell them we were going to interview them on camera until we arrived at the location. We interviewed both witnesses simultaneously and separately, using two camcorders. Both of their accounts were strikingly similar and without embellishment. We found these witnesses to be truly credible and are very thankful for sharing their story. Neither witness received any method of compensation for their time.

After searching the area we were able to find to two footprints and attempted to cast them. Unfortunately a heavy rain hit the area the night before and the area we found these prints was directly across the street in a small clearing which was made up mostly of wood chips. Weighing 250 lbs myself, I tried to make an impression next to one of the prints and my print was only half as deep as the print we found. Photos of the prints / casts will be posted here soon. The reason we could not find prints where the creature was spotted was do to the tall grass which was "full" of game trails crisscrossing in every direction! The grass was matted down in every direction due to the heavy amount of game trails. We could not even see our own tracks, or paths due to these conditions. Also noted: deer and coyote feces throughout these trails.

Received an email of an amazing encounter. Read full report here.


8-28-11 Private Research Area

After about 3 hours we obtained some excellent tree knocks. The knocks were less than 50 yards away. A 30 ft tall tree shaking from the same cedar thicket was noticed as well. The knocks only began after we made a single knock. Over a twenty minute period we communicated with what we strongly believe was a Sasquatch: sending and receiving almost a dozen knocks at various times. These knocks were received after we made a few whistles.

Raw audio clip from our squatching expedition with Larry The Cable Guy. Amplification of the return vocalizations is under way.

Audio

Howl (taken from the above audio)

Analysis - Frequency is low enough that it could be a dog, however dogs like to howl repeatedly, and throw a few barks in there too, but no other howls or barks where heard all night.

1-6-12 Howl

This is a response howl to a tree knock in Bullitt County.


Howl (amplified)

The audio has been enhanced. We were setting up game cameras in our research area and decided to do a tree knock. Thanks to Mononga Hela, perhaps the best bigfoot sound expert on the planet, for amplifying/cleaning it up. He also mentioned the second call is a "flat response howl". He has seen them from time to time in response to an initial howler. We were not aware of the second howl, until he brought it to our attention.

Here is the video:




Summer of 2011

Playing music and laughter has attracted a curious squatch on occasion, therefore we will often try this technique.
