Is Bigfoot simply a creature hiding in the forests of North America—or could there be something much stranger behind one of the world’s most enduring mysteries? Join author, researcher, and television personality Ronny LeBlanc, from Discovery Channel’s Expedition Bigfoot and Travel Channel’s Paranormal Caught on Camera, for a fascinating exploration of the history, legends, and modern-day encounters surrounding Sasquatch.
Drawing from Native American traditions, eyewitness reports, his own investigations throughout New England, and four seasons filming Expedition Bigfoot across the country, Ronny will share evidence, personal experiences, and some of the unexplained phenomena that seem to occur alongside Bigfoot sightings—including mysterious lights, orbs, and possible connections to UFOs. With a recent Bigfoot encounter in Connecticut making national headlines, the question “What Is Bigfoot?” may be more timely—and closer to home—than ever.
