Bigfoot Encounters
Screams heard - no Sighting: Oroville, California near ConcowAfter reading all of the interesting articles on your website, I feel compelled to share a strange experience I had near Lake Oroville September 1, 2000. My father purchased some land north of Oroville, near "Concow, " California.
Set back from the paved road almost a mile, the property is remote enough where you can't see your neighbors. Anyway, sometime in the mid 1980s, on a warm summer night after watching a movie, I needed some fresh air and needed to urinate so I walked outside in the dark to relieve myself. In the distance I can hear a shrill scream every few seconds. I can only describe the screams as a cross between "a woman screaming in agonizing pain and a mountain lion" I have never heard anything like it in my life before then, or after.
The more I listened to the screams, the more terrifying they sounded. I knew then what it meant to have the hair stand on the back of my neck. Those noises effected the way I carried myself in the woods until this day.
No recording was made, I seemed to just try to figure out what the sound was but when I realized it was unique I went inside to get others to listen, but I couldn't get any body's interest.
It was written off as being unimportant at the time.
