Summary
On this episode of the Paranormal Portal, we journey deep into the dark wilderness traditions surrounding some of the strangest Bigfoot and wildman encounters ever reported. From Albert Ostman's terrifying claim of being carried away in his sleeping bag by a family of Sasquatch deep in the mountains of British Columbia, to the haunting story of Zana, the mysterious wild woman captured in the Caucasus Mountains and believed by many to be one of the legendary Alma, to disturbing Yeren traditions emerging from the remote forests of China, tonight's episode explores the uneasy boundary between humanity and the unknown. These are not simply stories of creatures glimpsed from a distance. These are stories about contact, captivity, isolation, and the unsettling possibility that something intelligent may still move through the wild places of the world beyond the reach of modern certainty. Join us for this incredible conversation and so much more! Enter the Paranormal Portal...if you dare!

| 2:53.6 | difference once evening settles in. Shadows deepen on the trees. Small sounds carry much farther. |
