Description of Encounter Area: A man I’ve spoken to from the area, where my vacation property is,
says he was driving home one night and came across Bigfoot crossing the street. It was somewhat
foggy, as he recalls it. But positive it was Bigfoot.
Are There Food and/or Water Sources in the Area? (if so, describe): Yes, barn animals which
were butchered, ponds, streams, river, and farms.
Occupation/Background: I am a private investigator and also author of, The Farm. I have vacation
property in Warrensburg, NY, and ever since I was young, the man who would take care of our property,
Mr. Blake, would tell me of his Bigfoot encounter. I wrote a fictional novel based on his experience, and
added my own imagination to it to make it a murder mystery, but ever since the publication of my book,
more sightings in that area have been reported. My book was self-published, but sells in many of the
stores in the Lake George/Bolton Landing region as well as on the internet. I would like to think these
sightings are real and not a hoax, and not just coincidental or ideal because my book came out. The last
sighting was over a month ago in that area, and the witnesses were a 10 and 12 year old boy. I, myself,
have not seen Bigfoot, but keeping my eyes open. www.shannonwallacenovels.com
