Summary

Bigfoot Appeared Out of Nowhere. Bigfoot PTSD
At 29, the narrator and his wife were on a night walk near Olympic National Park when they heard strange noises in the woods. Initially dismissing it as small animals, the sounds grew closer, causing his wife to panic. The narrator, armed with a pistol, soon realized they were being chased. When they reached their vehicle, a large, terrifying creature appeared, and the narrator shot at it as it fled. Later, the creature reappeared, and after another encounter with gunfire, it limped off. The experience haunted the narrator’s wife, leading to a stroke, and left the narrator with lasting fears and nightmares. He eventually shared the story with a podcast creator, seeking closure.

0:00.0	All right, here's a bigfoot story.
0:12.0	When I was 29, my wife and I lived near Olympic National Park in Port Angeles, Washington.
0:18.4	My wife loved to go for night walks just before sunset. One night we had been walking
0:23.7	down the trail for about an hour. We came upon a lake. She wanted to take a break, so we stopped
0:29.7	and rested for a bit. After a few minutes, we heard a twig snap. First, we thought it was a deer or
0:37.1	another tiny creature, so we didn't worry

1:24.9	four times and it took off back in the woods.
1:28.2	We hopped in the truck and sped off, and my wife asked me what the hell that was.
1:33.1	I told her I didn't know, all the while laughing to myself, thinking of Steve Lilly.
1:38.7	We were driving, and I kept glancing out the window expecting it to jump out on us.
1:44.0	A few hundred feet down the dirt
1:45.5	path, we started hearing something crashing through the woods again. We rounded the bend
1:50.5	in the dirt path and I slammed on the brake so hard that I thought I was going to fly through
