Summary

Tonight’s guest, Brian Minnick, is a Sasquatch researcher who has been visiting Camp Hero, in Montauk, New York, since 1988, when he was 11. Camp Hero is a military base that’s best known for being the inspiration for the hit show, Stranger Things. A lot of strange things have happened on the grounds, Camp Hero and around them, including Sasquatch activity. In 1981, Camp Hero was decommissioned, and it remained abandoned for 20 years, until it was turned into a state park. It’s been said that the base was abandoned due to it being destroyed by a beast that was unleashed when a portal to another dimension was opened, due to a clandestine experiment. Not being one to pass up on an opportunity for adventure, Brian made countless trips to Camp Hero, to explore the grounds and see if he could find any evidence supporting that claim. On tonight’s show, not only is he going to talk about the Sasquatch-related experiences he had there, he’s also going to talk about the evidence he found that just might support the whispers about a beast being unleashed on the base. We hope you’ll tune in and listen to him do that.

Brian has a YouTube Channel that he uses to chronicle the investigations he’s done. It’s called “Montauk Is Strange.” If you’d like to check it out, which we hope you will, please go to…

Alright then, let's do this.

Seen a punch of run down, no horse towns where the church is the backbone loves and the pow,

0:18.0

and the five-string melodies grooving.

0:21.6

With the palm and rows where the roots run deep,

0:25.6

beyond the noise of the busy streets,

0:29.6

where the songs of the south are soothing.

0:33.6

When I hear the prompt porch picking down home rhythm ringing out, I don't run from banjo music.

Yeah.

Stranger Things. I've been exploring there since 1988 when I was a kid, when I was about 11.

1:20.4

But back then, we had only found some old War of War II military bunkers, underground bunkers,

1:27.3

and crawled through them with no flashlights,

1:29.4

finding a huge hole in the floor where we dropped some concrete down and heard it go a few

1:34.3

seconds before it hit water. So it was about three or four stories deep. And then we realized

1:39.4

we couldn't cross back over this hole. So we kept going through the dark down another level.

1:43.7

And we came out

1:44.4

through a hole in the sand in the ground, right near the bluffs of Campiro State Park, which at

that time wasn't a state park. This was abandoned by the Air Force. This was an army base, but it was
