It's Followed Me from Board Camp to Oakridge!

It's Followed Me from Board Camp to Oakridge!

Author: Jeremiah Byron September 14, 2026 Duration: 1:25:02
Note: This is the original version of the interview with 8 minutes that were cut for the public. If you like me chit chatting at the beginning then you'll like this. 

A former MUFON investigator went to Oakridge, Oregon searching for answers. One night outside her cabin, something came out of the darkness and headed straight toward her.


In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Patti Valvo shares what happened during an investigation that took her deep into some of the most active and mysterious locations in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Oregon.


Near Oakridge, Patti heard unexplained knocks along the edge of the Willamette National Forest and experienced small objects landing near her as she walked back toward the cabin. Then came the encounter that sent her running—a brilliant ball of light descending near the forest and rapidly closing the distance behind her.


Patti also takes us to Sparks Lake, where she documented enormous barefoot impressions near the water, and Waldo Lake, where strange tree formations added another layer to an area already connected to disturbing eyewitness reports.


Her journey also includes Area X in Southeast Oklahoma, Board Camp Crystal Mine in Arkansas, a remote property near Lake Thunderbird experiencing unexplained vocalizations and animal activity, and an unsettling discovery beside a creek in an undisclosed location.


This is a journey through Bigfoot country with a former UFO investigator who started asking questions about what might be happening in the forests—and found herself experiencing things she still cannot explain.

In Bigfoot Society, host Jeremiah Byron creates a space where firsthand accounts of the unexplained are treated with seriousness and respect. This isn't about sensationalism; it's a grounded conversation at the intersection of personal narrative and natural mystery. Each episode features intimate interviews where people recount their encounters with something they believe to be Bigfoot. Jeremiah’s approach is to empower these witnesses, allowing them to articulate experiences that are often met with skepticism. The result is a sense of relief and regained control for the storyteller, offering listeners a rare, unfiltered window into these events. By focusing on the human element within these extraordinary stories, the podcast explores deeper questions about what might still be undiscovered in the wilderness. You'll hear detailed descriptions of sounds, sightings, and the lasting emotional impact, all framed within a thoughtful dialogue. Jeremiah guides these conversations with a calm curiosity, making this podcast a unique entry in the genre. It’s for anyone fascinated by the persistent mystery of Sasquatch, but also for those interested in how people process and make sense of the profoundly unexpected. Tune in for a series that is as much about the psychology of belief and experience as it is about the creature itself.
