A Coal Miner Saw Something 8 Feet Tall Near McLennan, Alberta

Bigfoot Society

Show Notes

Bigfoot sightings stretch across North America in this episode of Bigfoot Society, with firsthand witnesses sharing encounters from Alberta, British Columbia, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and beyond.

A coal miner describes driving near McLennan, Alberta, when an enormous dark figure appeared beside the railroad tracks. He watched it take four full steps, estimated it at 7½ to 8 feet tall, and backed his car up for another look. What happened in the woods afterward—and the reaction of a nearby dog—has stayed with him ever since.

In British Columbia, we hear about generations of Indigenous Bukwus stories from the Kitimat and Kemano region, along with a chilling scream heard from the shoreline during a boating trip.

A Kentucky investigator shares a nighttime thermal encounter with a massive upright figure near Fords Ferry Road. Another Kentucky witness remembers following enormous humanlike footprints through fresh snow outside Elizabethtown until blood appeared beside the tracks and something began violently shaking the vegetation ahead of him.

We also hear remarkable historical accounts from Connecticut firefighters, a nighttime encounter from western Pennsylvania, and stories passed down from the remote Yukon community of Beaver Creek.

These are firsthand experiences, family accounts, and local traditions from people willing to put their stories on record.

Listen through to the end. Episode 1186 covers a remarkable amount of territory, and several of these locations deserve a much closer look.
