In this powerful episode of Bigfoot Society, Shawnee elder Donna Copas shares her lifelong encounters with the mysterious beings her people call “the Watchers.” From deep in Southeast Ohio, Donna describes sightings dating back to the 1930s, generational knowledge passed down through her family, and chilling modern interactions that challenge everything we think we know about the forests.
Donna reveals her first encounter at age six, her father’s and grandmother’s experiences, ancient Shawnee traditions, gifting practices, emotional connections with the Watchers, and the shocking night something violently tore through her farm. She also describes a terrifying run-in with a creature resembling a Dogman, the growing tension caused by logging on sacred land, and why sightings in Ohio are increasing.
If you’re interested in Bigfoot encounters, Native American perspectives, cryptids, Dogman sightings, Ohio Bigfoot hotspots, indigenous lore, or unexplained forest phenomena, this episode delivers one of the most detailed eyewitness accounts ever recorded.
