For hundreds of years and even in ancient legends there are stories of large man/ape type beings living in the wilds of the world. They can be found just outside of civilized society and have been feared, admired and even revered. Every corner of the world has its creature...the Yeti of the Himalayas , the Yowie of Austrailia , Russias Almas , China has its Yeren , and of course Bigfoot and Sasquatch here in North America. The Pacific Northwest is inundated with reports of these huge , hairy beasts. But some might not realize the number of encounters being experienced right here in East Tennessee . Indeed , these creatures are pretty much everywhere fresh water and high timber are found . The southern Appalachian chain of mountains which runs through the heart of the eastern United States is just such an environment.





This organization was formed in 2005 after a sighting encounter by a family member prompted the founder , Matt Seeber , to dig deeper into the subject . He found that there were several stories just from his community where folks had seen and heard things they simply could not explain. Since its inception , www.easttennesseebigfoot.org has sought to shed light upon this subject and to speak one on one with people without judgement or ridicule. We want to hear your story no matter how strange it may seem...no matter how unbelievable one might believe it to be . All information gathered is kept private and is not shared without permission of the witness. No addresses or even street names are used in publicly released reports without permission granted by the witness. Your privacy is sacred to us . We research East Tennessee only. However , we have contacts and research partners all over the United States. We may be able to put you in direct contact with someone close to your location. You may contact us via email at easttennesseebigfoot@yahoo.com or through our facebook page.





So...just what is "bigfoot"?



That must be the Million Dollar Question. In all honesty , no one really knows for sure. There are assumptions abounding. There are beliefs that are from the mundane to the incredible. Bigfoot as a species has been labeled a missing link. Bigfoot has been considered an ape/human hybrid. There is a belief that these creatures may be what is left of the Neanderthal race of early humans.Some hold to the idea of Nephilim...the giants spoken of in Biblical times. There are some that believe the creature is an alien race brought here to either spy on humans or an alien race of slave laborers left behind by more advanced extraterrestrials.That is the perplexing riddle most folks can't seem to get past. No Bigfoot corpse has ever been "officially" found. There is no publicly accessible physical evidence that can 100% prove beyond doubt that the creatures even exist. Hair samples whose DNA is tested and determined unknown does not prove Bigfoot exists....although that should raise a huge flag in the scientific community.The great number of tracks and other physical evidence has yet to sway most from skeptic to believer. Photo and video evidence can no longer be considered relevant since modern technology in CGI can produce anything we want to see on any screen. And what about all the eyewitness accounts? Are these people crazy? They were obviously drinking or using illicit drugs or somehow not in their proper state of mind . This of course is not true. Most of the people who have come forward were and are pillars of their communities , law officers , military personnel and otherwise normal everyday folks. But here at easttennesseebigfoot.org we do know this...they are real. The eyewitness accounts , the evidence our group and others like us have found , the stories and legends that go back hundreds if not thousands of years , all the First Nation legends passed down throughout the many tribes of North America....it all adds up to something , something that cannot be dismissed as a misidentified bear or some odd hallucination.
