A series of social media posts from a cryptid-focused podcast has ignited speculation about widespread Bigfoot sightings in northeast Ohio, with enthusiasts pointing to what they describe as a concentrated burst of activity.
The Bigfoot Society, a podcast and online community dedicated to collecting eyewitness accounts of Sasquatch encounters, says it had received six separate reports between March 6 and March 10 in wooded areas near Mantua and Garrettsville, southeast of Cleveland.
The group has described the cluster as a possible "flap," a term used in cryptozoology for multiple sightings within a short time span.
"It’s normal for there to be Bigfoot sightings all over the United States, but it’s not normal to have multiple sightings in a small area within a short number of days," Jeremiah Byron, host of the Bigfoot Society Podcast, told Fox 8.
...
"So, if you're in this area, keep your eyes open and maybe your doors locked because there could be a Bigfoot in the same general vicinity." said one poster in the group, which has 282,000 members.
According to a flurry of recent posts in the group, several Bigfoot hunters claimed to have "locked eyes with a nine-foot-tall, brown-haired Sasquatch."

"Of all cryptids, the idea of a leftover species, smarter than an ape - smart enough to avoid humans as much as possible - but dumber than a Somalian - no Learing Centers - seems the most conceivable."
Or maybe bears coming out of hibernation.

So, has anyone heard what their diet consist of?They're primarily vegans but like bears, they're also opportunistic omnivores, meaning they consume both plants and small mammals.

The 6 Bigfoot sightings are the following: 1) A family of 5 Bigfoots moved to Ohio from California due to taxes...
The other was Al Green...🤣

Portals and Bigfoot sightings with ufos - might be all connected.
We’re never going to find the body of an entity that can dematerialize to another dimension in seconds.
The fact that these sightings are happening more often suggests something is ratcheting up in the spiritual realm.
These are not of “God”….
