    My grandmother had a cabin in southern Michigan near the town of Dowagiac. She lived by a body of water called dewey lake and it was pretty much paradise. It’s quiet peaceful and serene. But one night my grandmother called me in a frightened state. I had been spending the weekend at a resort down the road with my girlfriend, so I was very close by. She explained in a panicked voice that a bear had been trying to break down her door and she was scared. Me and my buddies immediately drove over with some shotguns and we expected to see a black bear or something digging in our trash, and we knew we could probably just yell at it or honk the car horn to get it to run away. We showed up but there wasn’t anything there. The door frame was damaged and it certainly looked like claw marks. But what I found interesting was that the trash cans where completely untouched. Whatever it was had lost interest and left. My grandmother was fine, just a bit shook. She said it was a black bear and she had seen it through the windows. She also noted it was walking on two legs and was “quick as the devil” It’s not too crazy of a story, but something didn’t sit well with me, a black bear being fast on two legs. My grandmother would develop memory problems later in her life, but at this point her mind was still pretty sharp. We believed her. Just one problem. There are no bears in Dowagiac Michigan. There haven’t been bears in that town in over 150 years. Another point, I don’t think my grandmother had ever seen a bear outside of a couple visits to the zoo. I wouldn’t rely on her for identifying animals at night. I don’t know what my grandmother saw, but I don’t think it was a bear. Oh, and guess what, Dewey lake also has a dog man legend. I don’t know if I believe it. But I don’t laugh away those stories the same way I used too.

    So, I live in Hungary, in a small village, surrounded by forest.
    When I was in my late 10s esrly 20s, I went nearl every night to one if my friends, to smoke cigarettes, talk about stuffs, etc.
    There are two kinds of roads to him from our house, the longer one where there are street lights, a nice road,
    And there is another, which is shorter but not with even a single light source, through some fields, soccer field and shrubs and trees.
    So once when I walked on this dark road to home, I heard some strange noises when I passed by an old building.
    It was like kinda mixed dog and human wheezing , closer and closer to me.
    I was so freaked outh that I nearly took off from the ground, ran home like flash.
    Never went there at night again.
    Theres another story.
    Same place, and with one of my friends we sat at a campfire when we just felt that someone or something is running towarda us, halted near at the fires outline and stares at us, the interesting oart was that we did not said a word about it to each other, just suddenly we felt the same and started to run away exactly at the same time
    We paid attention to the fire from one of the narest street light from another street, then after a while we went back to the fire, put out the fire and went home

    About a decade ago, we had a family get together in this exact place. Camped there and everything. I recall this one area on the campground gave me a bad feeling the first day we were there, so I avoided it on my walk. The next day, we went out on a pontoon boat and brought some jet skis. The place felt real weird at first, but once we got going and to a different area it seemed to relax. Still kind of lingered though and I felt that we were being watched, either by campers beyond the trees or something, at several points. Never knew about the dog men until just this year... Needless to say I’d be much more freaked out back then if I’d known the stories at the time.

    Wonderful story, as always. My family's from Kentucky and I spent 8 summers, during my teens, with grandparents who had retired to Lake Cumberland near the town of Monticello. That whole region of southern KY is full of strangeness. I had an experience with a blinding light thru a bedroom window one night. Out in the middle of nowhere. There was no sound associated with it. There were approximately 5-7 houses on that road then and only two families that lived there full time. The town of Hellier is east of Monticello and Monticello is east of the Land between the Lakes. That entire region sits a top the Mammoth Cave system which has vast amounts of quartz crystal.

      @@joyfullydreaded1371 Check out piezoelectricity. I know, it sounds like a nightmare, but type that into wiki. Piezo electricity.
      What it means is, that certain substances like crystalline rock (e.g. quartz), but also non-crystalline mineral substances and even DNA can deform under electrical influence - and vice versa.
      Meaning, if a lightning hits quartz rock, it can cause deformations in the rock (but not just in the way lightning would break other types of rock)... and vice versa quartz itself can also generate electricity by mechanical pressure.
      This effect is already used in mechanics, so it's absolutely a real thing confirmed by science... but...
      There is a fringe theory about lightning, earthquakes and quartz caves, that states, that putting large quartz systems under electrical or mechanical pressure could bend spacetime and serve as somewhat of a natural time machine.
      I'm not saying that this is real; I'm no physicist and won't pretend that I have superior knowledge about this. For all I know it's science fiction.
      Yet, what if it's NOT aliens or transdimensional beings opening up portals into alternate universes, but simple, pure physical effects?
      I find it interesting to speculate, that maybe the Kentucky goblins or that dogman creature or the beings at Skinwalker Ranch could be time/dimension travellers, who are drwan to certain places on Earth because of active piezoelectric cave/rock systems.

This is my first time hearing about any of these stories, but I will say there is an atmosphere in the unsettled woods. I have never felt it to be malevolent or oppressive in any way, but I guess that's good because whatever it is had hundreds of unsupervised hours with me and left me untouched.

      Being a boy and scared is part of it of course but another big part would be that the man killed by it had a 20 gauge and it wasn't effective at all...whereas his own 410 shotgun is a much smaller sort even if loaded with more lethal types of ammunition like slugs. A 410 is in fact about the smallest sort of shotgun one can get outside of some specialty "garden guns" which are rare in the US...So not really a better gun than the other guy had and he said he thought there were 2 creatures. I suppose it may also have been a single shot shotgun as those do exist and are quite common as youth guns.

    Still another terrific creepy story. I've heard about the family killings a couple months ago and have heard the interview with Roger. He sounds convincing but it is also suspect when a convenient witness arrives out if the blue. It's not evidence but the campsite has supposedly been eradicated with even the utility poles cut down. The area is also relatively near Fort Campbell, location of some strange encounters from Wartime Stories.

      Yeah. You would think the police would have tried to pin the deaths on him rather than deal with the whole Dogman phenomenon. I’ve heard the details from a police report with no reference to a witness so I’m skeptical. I’ve also seen a Dogman channel recently get enthralled with someone claiming to have been a Dogman hunter for the government. He tells stories that make no sense but some of the channel members still believe him. The point being, I wouldn’t put it past someone to pretend they were a witness. I’m also fairly certain it was the police report that said some of the girls remains were found in a tree, but I can’t be certain of that.

      I dunno guys, that last story sounded like a work of pure fiction. He wants us to believe that Dogmen brutally and efficiently wiped out everyone besides him for apparently no other reason than to do it. They didn't eat them, didn't steal anything, didn't search for anything, then they departed as soon as they were done. Also, somehow despite being at least part canine they couldn't smell him hiding under the camper¿? Fear supposedly puts off a smell that certain animals (including canines) can smell. He was that close to them, putting off this smell of fear and by some miracle they didn't pick up on it¿? I'm not a skeptic, I believe that this world still has many mysteries to be solved and creatures to find. However, I'm just having a hard time believing this cat. I'm going to go watch the interview with him and see how I feel after that. If anything actually did happen I think it was 2 degenerate Furries all messed up on an illicit substance.

    I find the stories of Dog Men (cynocephalus) most interesting. We have tales of them going back much further than most people realize. One thing I find fascinating is that we have a lot of stories of interaction with these beings where the witness(es) come in contact with them and, though clearly terrified, are not harmed when the creatures clearly could have done so. Though I believe in the possibility of skinwalkers, I somehow do not think that is what most people are encountering with these beings. Great production, thank you!

    Me and some friends took a long weekend fishing and hunting trip at this area in 2011. Eerily, we arrived and began to set up camp. I grew up in the north woods of Minnesota so I never go in to nature without my rifle and a side arm. One of my friends, Erin screamed with terror i never heard in her voice. We all left to a sprint running her way (I figured she crossed paths with a big black snake or maybe even a lynx) i took several strides and thought "oh hell..the damn rifle" i reversed course and retrieve my M1a from the cab of my truck and sprinted off to the treeline. As I was about to enter, my party was exiting in a panic. Erin's boyfriend Mark was yelling "shoot shoot!!!" As he ran directly passed me. I took a aim in to the woods at a low elevation (still convinced this was all over a damn cat) but I heard the most terrifying snarl and growl like nothing I've heard before. A large "wolf" on its hind quarters approaching at a sprint toward me. I raised aim and unloaded a 20 round mag of .308 (to be honest the last 5 rounds or so was fired as I was retreating as fast as I could in a reverse jog) and you know what? Nothing exited the treeline, no yelps if pain as a wolf would let out from a hit. Just that blood curdling howl. My friends were shouting " forget it man lets go!!" Since they all were already in the truck and had engine running, I ran and left into the bed and Mark speed off in reverse before spinning around to exit the area completely. We drove several minutes before reaching a gas station and calling 911. When a couple officers showed we described the events and such best we could remember. I was like oh crap, now they're gonna investigate, we are gonna have to stay here and I was sure they were gonna have me hand over my rifle. And none of that. The older officer asked if anyone was injured, when we replied no were just shook up he said. Whoever is driving needs to take a few minutes and gather yourself and you all head straight back home. We left. Left the camping equipment and the boat/trailer which was the only thing we recovered a couple months later. And I didn't even wanna go back for that

    Thanks for doing this episode. In the past decade I have heard several encounters of strange creatures in LBL. According to many tales it's the eastern portion of the park that hosts the tales of the strange & frightening cryptids. I remember one from Sasquatch Chronicles about a guy who casually went for a Bigfoot searching drive in the eastern side of the park and encountered a group of Bigfoot stalking a deer herd. The encounter scared him witless, and his voice shook as he told Wes about it. The strange and gruesome deaths of the family in the RV are well known in the Bigfoot and Dogman enthusiast communities. Roger's version of the tale was interesting and made me wonder anew why the family was attacked.

    I'm from rural Ozark County Missouri, about a 4 hour drive west of Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley. Land Between the Lakes has always been a favorite spot to catfish and set trotlines. It's a very interesting place- they are man made reservoirs with hydro-electric dams operated by the Army Corps of Engineers, and trains of coal tugs moving coal on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. I've never experienced anything like what's described in this story but I've definitely seen a few instances of unexplainable aerial phenomena in this place. There's also definitely some micro-ecosystems of local flora and fauna that are only found in this area. Unfortunately there have also been Asian White Carp introduced in recent years which can out-compete most of the fish species that prefer to rely on a similar diet. This unfortunately includes Blue Cat and Channel Cat as well as catch and release sport bass.
    LBTL is a magical place. There's various museums onsite, including the hydro-electric dams and associated history such as the towns that needed to be flooded for the projects, homesteading showcases, an elk and bison range, an observatory, forestry exhibits, etc. It's huge, it'll take you years to see everything this seemingly small place has to offer. Go see if you have the opportunity.

    There's always one small point about some of these stories that I've always found strange (ironic, I know). These entities (whatever particular humanoid shape they prefer to assume) are always described as being distinctly post-human (i.e., faster and stronger). So why do these things never *enter* the structures containing their prey? There are accounts these things circling structures being generally menacing (as one would expect of a predator), but they don't force their way inside. Now why do you suppose that is? Why did the RV not offer similar protection as the house did in the previous account? Surely the average residential external door and locks are no more of hinderance than that found on an RV to something so powerful?

Injury could severely impact the success rate of future hunts, so many animals will not get into a scrap that would get them too injured or even killed.

      I’m starting to get a feeling that this dogman and the more commonly known variant is two of the same species, just that one is a subspecies of the original. As a Michigan man I’m biased when I think the Great Lakes Dogman is the parent/original Dogmen species, but with this southern creature, I could be wrong due to how the climate is different in that region, so that means GL Dogmen have adapted better to their northern climate and have developed better brains when handling human interactions, meanwhile the southern Dogman has more in line with more animalistic behavior similar to that of a cat playing with a mouse. So such things as killing simply to kill without care of the consequences is a more likely outcome with this species.

    In the final story: The distances depicted by artist representation wouldn't matter that the father was using a 20g shotgun shell filled with bird shot. At that range, it's almost a slug, a big chunk of lead. Even at the distance between one end of the camper to the front would still be enough space to make sure that the shot is still packed tightly. Tight enough to make a grown man stumble if struck because of how mass and velocity work.
    A .410g shotgun shell is even smaller, thinner and even packed with buck (what are small ball bearings) they would have equated to the same amount of energy transferred into the target. Turning off the laws of physics to make a story work is a good way to make a story sound like just that - a fairytale.

      This is an animal roughly around the mass of a grizzly bear based on accounts and estimates; tanking birdshot can be plausible. These are bigger than humans are. The fact that he even dropped the creature at all was a miracle.

    I have a very distinct memory of not being able to find a portapotty and wondering away to go pee in the treeline away from the festivities. This was right at dusk.
    As I was peeing I remember having the overwhelming feeling of being watched. It set of huge alarm bells and I recall frantically looking around until through the trees about 20 feet in, my gaze finally fixed on a pair of glowing red eyes staring right at me. I immediately turned and ran back to the nearest crowd of people.

Also, somehow despite being at least part canine they couldn't smell him hiding under the camper¿? Fear supposedly puts off a smell that certain animals (including canines) can smell. He was that close to them, putting off this smell of fear and by some miracle they didn't pick up on it¿?

      Bluff charges in dogman sightings are common enough to consider it as factual behavior, but by Roger’s description there was no warning. The thing just came out of the shrubs and attacked for whatever reason. This is not common dogman behavior. Most of the time, they would rather not confront a human unless feeling threatened or cornered; most accounts describe them giving a glare or a snarl, and simply moving away from the eyewitness. I should note though, that particularly intelligent animals can kill without much reason; chimpanzees for example are known to be violent and can kill without eating. If dogman is as intelligent as people believe, then there’s a possibility of purely malevolent intentions.
      I do still think this is more plausible than the spectacular, Hollywood-like story of the trailer turning into a slaughterhouse and the girl found up in the tree. Predators tend to be efficient in their killings, calculated and quick, which reflects this story.

      @@Pastamist I agree, since from what information I’ve found on Dogmen, such an attack is completely out of the norm for their known behavior which leads me to believe that this is not a Great Lakes Dogmen, but a sub or potentially the original species as it evolved. The GL Dogmen have evolved to a general understanding that I believe is back by the evidence you state, that they would only attack as a last resort or if the threat to them was high enough to warrant violence. Which leads to the understanding that attacking humans is not a good idea and thus must only be done as a last resort. Here, we see a wolf like humanoid attack for the simple purpose or pleasure of attacking and killing. That the creature(s) knew that they could do it with little consequence, with only the 410 shotgun and hiding under the motor home, most likely smearing himself in grease, saving Roger’s life. So this could also be a reason to say that the Great Lakes Dogman is a more human creature; because it knows it can kill people easily but is either instinctually or raised not too. That makes it much smarter than it’s southern cousin, because that creature hasn’t learned not to attack humans without justification. It instead chooses to attack much like an animal hunting or attacking human simply for the pleasure of it.

      @@sarhan5568 honestly I’ve heard theories on them being supernatural, but I feel as though there is too much evidence to support an actual creature. With multiple accounts stating it eating roadkill, chasing game, or one famous encounter with three drinking from a stream. It just doesn’t make sense for Dogmen to be supernatural. But then people say “if that’s so why don’t we see or have real conversation with them” the answer is simple; they’ve been hunted before by man, so the Dogmen don’t try as ancient talks may have fallen or those who knew died with their secrets of communication or past deals.
