A recent report by The Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO) reveals an eerie encounter with Bigfoot in Fairfield County, Connecticut.
According to a recent report by The Bigfoot Field Research Organization, Bigfoot was spotted causing a commotion in Connecticut’s Sasquatch hotspot last year.
On October 17, 2023, a local resident heard what they described as the “screaming/long-duration whooping” of the elusive creature. The event occurred just after midnight, sparking a frenzy among local dogs and causing nearby owls to fall silent.
A frightening encounter in Fairfield County
According to the anonymous witness, the vocalizations were powerful and carried a long distance. The resident estimated the source of the sound to be at least 1.25 miles away. The noises, described as “Yowie howls,” came from a forested area near Monroe and lasted up to 10 minutes. The sounds consisted of loud yelps, which paused for 10 seconds before repeating. The witness reported that these noises matched recordings of Sasquatch vocalizations found on YouTube.
They revealed: “This voice had quite a bit of ‘power’ behind it and I could tell that it was carried over distance. I would ‘rough’ guesstimate at least two clicks [1.25 miles] from my coords”
Unsettling silence after the Howls
As soon as the howls stopped, all the dogs in the area began barking simultaneously. The owls, usually heard in the area, were silent for about 10 minutes after the vocalizations ceased. The witness confirmed that the sounds were not from a coyote, bobcat, cougar, or fox. This further heightened the mystery of the encounter.
“All the dogs in the area started barking at once when the vocalizations ended. Normally there are many owls in the area and when I had gone outside previously I could hear them,” the witness stated.
Matthew Moneymaker, founder of BFRO, investigated the case after the report was filed. The witness’ account was initially delayed because it was based on sound alone. However, Moneymaker deemed the claims credible enough to categorize the sighting as Class B. The location of the incident, near a railroad bed and power lines, is known for past Sasquatch sightings.

In February 2022, another report from nearby Bethel described a “very tall, large, all-black upright figure” chasing deer. The witness, a woman, ruled out a person due to the figure’s size, estimating it to be between 8 and 10 feet tall. This adds to the growing body of Sasquatch sightings in the region.
