Cryptozoology:
has anyone in New York State seen a bigfoot? i was wondering, because I was in the state, visiting a friend, and i think i may have seen one. if you have, thank you!
also...if you have heard of any ghost stories about new york i would like it you would tell me.
one story about New York is about a diner. my grandmother told me, and this is what I know:
the diner's name is Clifford house. They have had a number of unexplained fires, and a young woman, about 25, has been scene. she has long brown hair, brown eyes, and dresses as if she were in the 1920s.

i think i saw one because i was visiting with my friend as i said, and it was late at night. her house is out in the country, so no one was around. i could hear her mom and dad in the next room(they both snore really bad.) she (val) was asleep and i was standing at the window. her dogs started to bark, he was next to me. i fallowed his line of sight and there was something large, black, and moving in the backyard. there were chirstmas lights on the house, they never took them down. i could just make out the figure of a human, only about 8ft tall. (thats what i looked like. it moved, and i could see fur on it. it looked twards the house, it could probly here the dog, and ran in to the woods.

There is reports of Bigfoot being spotted in New York. I think I saw it in the paper last year.

I also remember a report of a large hairy crider spotted in the Falls area. When I was a kid that area wasn't as poplalated as it is today.

I have read that almost all the states in the USA (except 2) has had some sightings of a bigfoot type crider.

So you never can tell if you saw one or not.

we didnt get much on the evps last night.
we tried though, four times, and got nothing.
also, tell me what you think about this:
last night i was awake. (i rarely really sleep @ my friends house) and coco was, like, almost playing with something. it was like someone was trying to pet her and she kept attacking what ever it was. i couldn't see and thing, and the computer screen was on all night. i think that we might have had a visitor, but this kind of thing has happened before with coco. is the cat just nutz or is it possible that something was messin' with her?
thanks for your ideas on what this could be!

are there any good books on the subject of new york state ghosts? other than weird new york and the big book of new york ghost stories? if you know any let me know, it is personal hobby of mine to find out anything and everything on new york ghosts. especially in my area (the finger lakes) thanks for every thing you can give me, and i can wait to see what comes up. also, if you would check out my other tread, vampires, and give me your take on that, it would be a great help. thank you.

For moe stories on NY Ghosts try Amazon.com for a list, then check out to see if the books are at your library.
I googled it and there is quite a list.

For web sites try Strange USA
www.strangeusa.com/viewstate.aspx?state=NY

and Shadowlands

Both list by city and have short stories about the haunted locations.

I hope this helps

i've had a couple of things happen to me lately, in my own house, and we have never had anything paranormal happen in the house.
a few nights ago i woke up around 3 a.m., and saw what looked like a shadow of a man looking down at me, like he was standing over my bed. i sat up real quick, and had he really been there, i would have knocked heads with him.
and yesterday, i was in the shower and i felt like i had been pushed, i stumbled a bit, a cut my leg real bad with a razor. there is know way anyone could have been in the house but me, i had just talked to my mom on the phone she was at work, dad was at work too, and dawn, the only other person that has a key to the house was at camp.
my family and i are renovating the bathroom, which has not gone under so many changes (me moved it from one side of the house to the other) sense it was put in to the house, about 100 yrs. ago. could the changes to the house be triggering something?

last night we had some major storms, and i was watching the lighting in my window, and out of nowhere, it looked like there was a large (well-muscled) man in the window, between me and the lighting. i couldn't see a face, just the shape. it was freaky, becuase when i looked at my bed, it i could see his shadow when every lighting striked, across my bed. i could not have been my father, i could here him snoring in the living room, which is almost directly under my bed room. and it was to be to be my mom, and we are the only people that live in this house, (single-family house). i found this even more strange, because he looked to be the same size of the man i saw standing over me when i woke up the other day (see above post -- 7/28/09).
