Ancient indigenous Native American rock art (petroglyphs) warn of Sasquatch creatures in area.
There really are killer "monsters" in the woods
Sasquatches, Yakkhas, Rakshasas, Yeren, Yetis, also commonly referred to as "Bigfoot," is a large, hairy cryptid creature said to inhabit forests around the world and in every state in North America, particularly concentrated in the Pacific Northwest [2][3][4].
Sasquatch is a feature in both Native American and Canadian (First Nations) folklore and since the mid-20th century has become a cultural icon, permeating popular culture and becoming the subject of its own distinct subculture [5][6].
The creatures are given many names worldwide.
Enthusiasts of Sasquatch (Istiyehe) hunting, such as those within the budding science of cryptozoology, have offered various forms of forensic evidence to support the existence of these Nature protectors and monsters (since they differ at least as much as human populations in terms of the behavior of individuals), including eyewitness claims of sightings as well as DNA, hair specimens, bodies, photographs, video, and particularly shocking audio recordings, in addition to a long history of tens of thousands of plaster casts of extremely large footprints [7][8][9][10] with individual fingerprints, as noted by Lloyd Pye.
Original film reexamined and found to be real
The evidence is a combination of eyewitness accounts, interactions, killings, folklore, identification, misidentification (confusing the humanin creature with bears of all kinds), and hoaxes.
The creatures are living animals but to say so causes a great deal of trouble to anyone trying to be taken seriously. Even a body is not enough because the gatekeepers and mainstream media insist and repeat that it cannot be a living creature [3][7][10][11][12][13].
Folklorists trace the phenomenon of these ogres and cave-dwelling monsters to a combination of factors and sources, including the European "wild man" figure, Asian Yeren, folk tales from every continent other than Antarctica, and indigenous cultures [14][15].
When disclosed, what will science say?
Examples of similar folk tales of wild, hair-covered humanoids exist throughout the world [16][17], such as the skunk ape of the Southeastern United States, the Almas (Almasty of Georgia and the Caucuses), Yeren of China, and Yeti of Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan, India, and the Himalayas extending from Bangladesh to Afghanistan, including the Australian Yowie [14][18], and frightful (sometimes peaceful) creatures in the mythologies of indigenous people [19][20], who consider them another human tribe.
German Krampus, mean demonic shapeshifter
Speculation, a growing cultural interest in the preservation of the environment, and overall societal awareness of the subject have been cited as additional factors [21]. More: Bigfoot

The Buddha reasons with abusive Alavaka.
What does Buddhism know about cryptids? Buddhism, like the other older Dharmic religions Vedic Brahmanism (now morphed into Hinduism) and Jainism, have long history of acknowledging non-human creatures in, on, and above the earth. There are monsters, ogres, reptilians, shapeshifters, gnomes, fairies, avians, and giants (maras. yakkhas, nagas, petas, kumbhandas, bhumi-devas, garudas, and asuras respectively). Among these, the cannibal ghouls known as ogres (yakkhas, yakshas, rakshasas, yakshis, yetis) are very smart humanoid creatures.
They are able to communicate with humans, take human "wives," and be reasoned with except in their ferocity and rapacity. They are sometimes in possession of advanced ET technology and dwellings, with psychic powers and preternatural strength, fierce emotions and lust. They are very dangerous and liable to attack humans. The most famous one found in Buddhist sutras is the Yakkha Alavaka. Others dwell in the Himalayas and in woodland, forests, and wilderness areas.
Some Natives not only saw them, they interacted and sometimes intermarried. They're human.
Is the cryptid Yeti ("Asian Bigfoot") a man or a bear? It is a meh teh (a "man bear")
Joshua Cutchin/Timothy Renner
Dogmen (lycanthropes, humanoid wolves) are real, and the wendigo goes by many W names, according to different Algonquin tribes. Others may have the Sasquatch tribe (hominin cryptids) to contend with, some of which are cannibal rapists and skin-walkers. Not all Bigfoot are bad, just it seems the unattached juveniles wilding and running rampant in the forest, stealing food and violating boundaries.
Not simply an animal species
The elder yakkhas and rakshasas ("forest guardians," "nature protectors") -- with fierce females of the species, the yakshis and yetis -- can't always rein in the youths entering puberty or their rutting season and must cut them loose. They then violate a cardinal rule to avoid human tribes.
Because these creatures are not strictly flesh and bone but in possession of technology or the paranormal ability to transform into orbs, alight in the middle of a field after a long set of footprints or enter the earth through crevices, caves, caverns, tunnels, or straight into rock (as with the rock-dwelling Tahquitz), tracking them is dangerous and confounding. Search parties become cases of high strangeness.

Killer origins of the werewolf | Monstrum
(Storied) Long before a full moon could transform a human into a beast, the werewolf (lycanthrope) was present across the literature, lore, and mythologies of ancient Europe. Whether a punishment for the wicked, a cure for the unlucky, or a blessing for the strong, the human to wolf shapeshifter is almost always violent. Real wolves posed a real threat to humans and their livestock, but how did these predators come to be associated with cannibalism, sorcery, and mental illness (lunacy)? The first in a two-part series, featuring werewolf expert and Gothic scholar Dr. Kaja Franck, this episode tackles the rise of the werewolf in its myriad forms, looking at what happened when Catholicism/Christianity interceded and turned the werewolf into the embodiment of evil — a change that reached its devastating climax with the persecution and execution of accused werewolves and the murder of countless wolves. #werewolf #mythology #werewolftrials #MonstrumPBS

Some are good, harmless, or disinterested. But others are potentially malevolent and inimical. It's dangerous to paint with too broad a brush as to what "spirits," "angels," or "devas" are.
In the three Abrahamic faiths (Judaism, Islam, Christianity), can one safely say that all "angels" (messengers) are good? Can they be harmful?
Similarly, in the Brahmanic (viewing the cosmos with brahmas in mind and Maha Brahma in particular). Then there are the two general kinds of serpents (nagas), reptilians who can be harmful or helpful. There are two kinds of ogres (yakkhas), some nature protectors others cannibal-humanoids with psychic powers (like Alavaka) and an appetite for human flesh.
Finally, there are the dwarfs (kumbhandas) and faeries (bhummi-devas). Their reality seems to be in another dimension physically connected to ours. Be careful when wandering in the forest or wilderness.

This
video is for skeptics who decry the demon theory and are constantly
making ignorant comments such as, "It does not mean it's demons just
because you don't know how it's done."
I [Xendrius] and MANY others believe in the
demon hypothesis for completely different reasons. Those who believe that an electric chair is used by Mike Super, watch 8:36 at youtube.com.
I agree that no explanation does not mean demons are the explanation. But when
there is clear evidence that many of these "sorcerers" are
connected to the occult or are in one way or another admitting that spirits
talk to them and help them perform these supernatural feats,
that's evidence for the demon hypothesis.
Demons are not here to entertain, but to deceive and confuse. They will perform marvels in the service of this. They
are behind the Illuminati and they had Weishaupt set up the following
goals and principles for their human puppets to follow in order to
establish a Satanic world government. These are called the "25
Illuminati goals." Search the term. Still don't think demons help the world's top magicians? Watch "Demon Magicians," Episodes 1-8.

Yaksha Alavaka orders the Buddha out (sleuteltotinzicht.nl); Yakshi Huckaby Yakshinis are often depicted as beautiful and voluptuous, with wide hips, narrow waists, broad shoulders, and exaggerated, spherical breasts.
Washington State is the realms of Bigfoot, the rakshasas or yakkhas. It is said that the female of the species, yakshis or yakshinis, is particularly fierce. Stories in Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism emphasize that nastiness of this fearsome creature -- which often appears in human form. Whether an ogress or "demoness" shape shifts into a human or mentally/spiritually inhabits one is not always clear. But many strange things happen, as recorded in the lore of Native Americans, particularly in New Mexico and the Southwest in general. Seattle is in the wooded Northwest where the incomprehensibly inhuman behavior of a teenage girl is otherwise hard to explain. Possession or influence by the "animal spirit" of the legendary forest spirit, as odd as it is to modern ears, seems to be evident. These creatures look after treasure hidden in the earth and resemble that of fairies (devas).
A yakshi/yakshini is the female counterpart of the male yaksha. They both attend on Kubera, who rules in the mythical Himalayan kingdom of Alaka, possibly Alavaka in the exclusively Buddhist language Pali. This is the site of the most famous case of a yaksha and the Buddha.
The story goes that Yaksha Alavaka possessed extraordinary supernatural powers: He created a terrifying storm, shaking and lighting up the forest with thunder, lightning, wind, and driving rain. The Buddha was unmoved. Alavaka then attacked the Buddha directly, throwing his spear and club. But before his weapons fell at the feet of the Buddha. Alavaka then asked: "Is it right that you, a 'holy man,' should enter a house and sit among someone's wives when he is away?" At this the Buddha got up to leave the cave. "What a fool I am to have wasted my energy trying to frighten this ascetic!" thought Alavaka. He told the Buddha to come back. The Buddha did. He then ordered the Buddha out again, as if hoping to try the Buddha's patience. But the third time, the Buddha refused: "No, Alavaka, I will not obey you. Do as you like, yet I will remain right where I am." There being no use in force, crafty Alavaka changed tactics, saying: "I will question you. If you are unable to answer me, I will take possession of your mind, tear your heart apart and, taking you by the feet, toss you across to the far side of the Ganges." The Buddha calmly replied: "Alavaka, I am unaware of anyone -- human, deva, brahma, or mara (fairy, divinity, or killer), ascetic, or brahmin -- who could do those things to me. But if you wish to ask something, you may." He did, and the Buddha delivered a famous sutra.*
Yakshinis are often depicted as beautiful and voluptuous, with wide hips, narrow waists, broad shoulders, and exaggerated, spherical breasts. In the Uddamareshvara Tantra, 36 yakshinis are described, including their mantras and ritual prescriptions. A similar list of yakshas and yakshinis is given in the Tantraraja Tantra, where it says that these beings are givers of whatever is desired. Although yakshinis are usually benevolent, there are also those with malevolent characteristics in Indian folklore.
Mysterious Yakshi on killing spree
SEATTLE (Q13 Fox) - Snohomish County Prosecutor Cindy Larsen is seeking to have the 15-year-old girl accused of stabbing two other students at Snohomish High School tried as an adult, saying the girl is still making threats, including [bathing in blood, sexual molestation, and] a desire to attack one of the girls again.
The girl, who was a sophomore at the school at the time of the attack last Oct. 24, is accused of stabbing freshmen girls April Lutz and Bekah Staudacher. Lutz suffered severe, life-threatening injuries, and Staudacher suffered a large cut to her arm and was stabbed in the back.
A surveillance video from inside the school on the day of the stabbings shows the two victims walking into the restroom. Moments later, the [yakshi] girl accused of stabbing them can be seen, wearing a hood, entering the restroom. Students hear the attack and gather outside. Then paramedics are shown removing a victim on a stretcher. More
*The Alavaka Sutra Alavaka asked questions he learned from his parents, which had been handed down generation to generation. He had forgotten the answers but had preserved the questions by scrawling them down on gold leaves:
"What is the greatest wealth?"
"What when well mastered brings the highest bliss?"
October is "Monster Month" on Wisdom Quarterly This unbelievable story is corroborated by Alex Collier and Philip Schneider at the military base in Dulce. "Mythological" creatures really exist. Governments around the world have long known. They are fed humans just as told in Buddhist accounts of the king and the Yakkha Alavaka.
Malta's Temples and Tombs Graham Stuart
Just beneath the southern tip of Italy, in the extreme western part of the Mediterranean sea, lies the island of Malta. In the past Malta has been the possession of many nationalities, and has been considered to be one of the most strategic areas on Earth, being a port and an intersecting point between Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, and so on. This 9-mile-long island was an ancient center of civilization when the Phoenicians from Carthage invaded and began their rule.
Chambers and catacombs beneath the Island of Malta (bibliotecapleyades.net)
A group of ancient priests who worshipped the god Moloch (another name for Baal, Osiris, and Nimrod, whom the ancients considered the "sun god") visited the island in Old Testament times. The islanders readily accepted their teachings, including that of offering up human sacrifices to appease Moloch, for the ancient Maltese themselves practiced human blood sacrifice to the "gods" of the underworld -- literally, underground -- beneath the island and elsewhere.
These so-called deities were often identified with serpents [nagas or reptilians and hairy yakkhas]. When the Apostle Paul, a Christian Biblical figure, visited the island, as recorded in the Book of Acts Chapter 28, he learned of their superstitious beliefs. He had been bitten by one on the island (at the time called Melita) and survived by the power of another "god," Jesus, a popular New Testament figure, whom the Maltese knew nothing about until Paul got through with them.
Since the time of the Carthagians, Malta had had many rulers -- Romans, Arabs, Normans, Argonese, Castillians, the Hospitalers of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, later known as the Knights of Rhodes, and still later as the Knights of Malta, who remain there to this day, having dual headquarters in Rome.
A few miles south of the Maltese town of Valletta is the small village of Casal Paula. In 1902, workmen digging a well fell into the earth. What they discovered was a series of ancient caves, mostly excavated out of solid rock. The caves descended into three lower tiers. These multi-leveled catacombs became known as the "Hypogeum of Hal Saflienti" after the street overhead. A hypogeum is Latin for an underground structure.
Near the floor of the last chamber, within the third and last (officially recognized) sub-level of the ancient catacombs, there are a few so-called "burial chambers." They are only a few feet square, situated next to the floor, and one must get on hands and knees to look into them.
These chambers are just large enough to crawl through. There have for years been rumors that one does not end but continues into deeper, unexplored caverns beyond.
This was the subterranean passage and chamber referred to years ago in an article that appeared in the August, 1940 issue of the National Geographic magazine. The article states the following concerning several people who disappeared without a trace:
"Many subterranean passageways, including ancient catacombs, now are a part of the island’s fortifications and defense system. Supplies are kept in many tunnels; others are bomb shelters. Beneath Valletta some of the underground areas served as homes for the poor. Prehistoric men built temples and chambers in these vaults. In a pit beside one sacrificial altar lie thousands of human skeletons. Years ago one could walk underground from one end of Malta to the other. The Government closed the entrances to these tunnels after school children and their teachers became lost in the labyrinth while on a study tour and never returned."
The story, however, goes much deeper than the National Geographic article indicates. Other sources say that about 30 children vanished in these catacombs on the study tour. Moreover when the hypogeum was first discovered, nearly 30,000 human skeletons of men, women, and children (victims of ancient sacrifice to the underworld gods, performed by an old neolithic race) were discovered as well.
One article written by a Miss Lois Jessup, at the time an employee of the British embassy, [who entered and saw the monsters that were fed humans] states: Out of this lower tunnel on the far side of the chasm, she claims, emerged in single file several very large creatures of humanoid form but completely covered with hair from head to foot. Noticing her, they raised their arms in her direction, palms out, at which point a violent "wind" began to blow through the cavern, snuffing out her candle. Then, some "thing" wet and slippery (apparently a creature of a different sort) brushed past her.Read full account
Actually, Jessup found the giants of the cave hard to describe because of their covering, which seemed to be like long white hair, combed downward and shaggy looking. Their heads were unusually elongated at chin and top with large features, and the hair on their heads fell about the shoulders like a draped monk's cowl. Lois found the Heindel drawings exciting because "the currents in the desire body" sketches were the first to resemble in any way the cave dwellers she saw on Malta. Nor does her description of them correspond to Shaver's Deros, hideous dwarfs or trolls who might very well have carved that portion of Hal Salfini now open to the public. This conflict in sizes and types very well illustrates the point I made earlier, that the underworld is peopled with beings of many sizes, shapes, and varying degrees of density, from the completely physical to the completely invisible.
