Fayetteville’s Bigfoot

Posted by: Loren Coleman on June 21st, 2012

Fayette County, Tennessee

The Fayette Factor often overlaps with Bigfoot activity. For example, the hairy forest giants reportedly “became rather more aggressive on April 23, 1976 when [one] attempted to carry off a four-year-old boy from his backyard on a farm in Tennessee. A sheriff’s posse pursued the entity and seems to have shot enough high-powered rifle fire into it to have felled King Kong himself. However, as if tiring of the game, the creature finally leaped out of its cul-de-sac and simply vanished. These events occurred within a few miles of the hamlet called Fayetteville, Tennessee,” writes Jim Brandon in his classic Weird America.
