The Thing That Screamed Back: A Maryland Sasquatch Story

What happens when a lifelong outdoorsman from Eastern Maryland starts noticing signs he can’t ignore — screams in the dark, gliding figures in the powerline fields, and a fox that seems more like a sentry than an animal? In this gripping and emotional episode, we sit down with Derek, a listener from Easton, Maryland, who shares his incredible decade-long journey into unexplained encounters near his home. From his first terrifying experience at age 11 to sightings of 13 distinct beings — including one with Down Syndrome features and a childlike face — Derek’s story unfolds like a living mystery. You’ll hear firsthand accounts of silent movement across powerlines, glowing eyes in the marsh, and the eerie moment his dog refused to go any farther. Along the way, Derek reflects on the spiritual side of these experiences and how they’ve transformed his understanding of the world. Locations include the Choptank River, Talbot County, Royal Oak, and the Shenandoah Valley. This isn’t just another Bigfoot story — it’s a haunting testimony of belief, ridicule, and the search for truth in the woods.
