I'm one of those folks who tries to keep an open mind when it comes to unexplained mysteries like Bigfoot, Ghosts, Cryptozoology, and other forms of Paranormal phenomena, but I pretty much stay clear of "weirdo behavior".

It's not hard to imagine why some people take a purely skeptics view of those things that can't be seen or touched by the average person either by intent or design, and I suspect that because those things are so outside the norm is why books, movies, and fireside stories are so fascinating to most of us, thank you Stephen King and others.
I also suspect that most of the tales, myths, legends, and other mysteries that have formed our opinions, fed our fears, and affected our lives since man started walking upright are no more than just stories, most of them coming from a time in man's history when superstition and the fear of the unknown was much greater than it is in our more modern times.
Many, if not most people who live, work, and are educated in the more modern environs of this world go through their whole lives without experiencing any real unexplained mysteries in their lives, but there are some who have, and to those people the world is a much different place, the borders where the reality of everyday life and the unexplained are broadened and sometimes blurry.
In my opinion, as unreal as some things can sound, they can't be dismissed all that easily, who hasn't at one time or another sensed a bad feeling just before something bad actually happened, who hasn't thought of some friend or family for no reason and then the phone rings and it's them on the other end of the line.
Why is it that you can be camped in the woods, or out hunting or sitting by a fishing stream on a beautiful day without a care in the world and for no reason you get goose bumps, feel a chill, or have the hair on the back of your neck stand on end, weird, yes, unusual yes, but does it happen, yes, something had to cause it, was it just something in us at the time that's quite normal, or was it some sixth sense that our body or mind picked up on that something wasn't right or that we were being watched ?
UFO's, some people think they don't exist, yet governments and researchers around the world have spent billions of dollars trying to track them or communicate with the intelligent life that supposedly controls them.
Sea creatures thought long extinct or only mentioned in fictional writings and novels, or not even known at all are being found, where did they come from?
Bigfoot, they don't exist, try telling that to the guy or gal that really believes they saw one, or to the scientist that studies a plaster cast of a foot print that looks human, yet has all the indicators and dermal ridges pointing to something else other than human, you'll have a hard time convincing the campers who were driven from their camp by huge stones being hurled into their campsite amid the sound of growls they can't identify.
We find it hard to believe someone we don't know trying to convince us they had a Bigfoot experience, that's normal, but what do you think when someone you all respect say he had not only one, but two Bigfoot encounters (the guy obviously spends a lot of time in the woods) ?
Are there things in this world that exist outside of our normal perceptions and understanding

?
I don't know for sure, and that's the point of all of this.
