These shares involve impacts on houses and cabins—roof strikes, wall hits, and structure-shaking blows that turn a building into a target.
Common threads are night after night of knocks and hits, families inside, and property damage. Browse these shares if you want the house or cabin under physical attack.
While house-sitting a rural property north of Glennallen along the Richardson Highway to protect against localized equipment theft, a married couple named John and Betty jackknifed their 16-foot fifth-wheel trailer across the driveway entrance, placing their camper a mere 100 feet off the primary asphalt road. While returning to the rig at dusk after utilizing an outdoor fire pit behind the main house, they were unsettled by a low, non-animal gurgling throat-clear emerging from the foliage.
In August 2018, Robert Johnson, a government investigator with experience in high-profile disaster scenarios like Katrina and 9/11, embarked on a solo motorcycle trip from Idaho to Fairbanks. Seeking a rest stop near Denali National Park, he stayed at the White Moose Lodge—a single-story, 20-room complex. During the night, Robert was awakened by rhythmic, forceful thumping emanating from the back wall of his room.
Ten years prior to 2022, two brothers, Jim and James, began constructing a remote 5-acre cabin cabin in the interior of Alaska, south of Fairbanks and north of Wasilla. During the building phase, they experienced recurring bear-like encroachments, forcing them to adopt a hyper-vigilant 'two-person always' security protocol. While James was left alone at the cabin to overnight, he began hearing a persistent 'click-click' sound originating from the walls of the windowless log shell.
Greg, who lives in Europe, used to spend a lot of money to fly his dogs and equipment to Alaska to participate in the Iditarod. About five years ago, while training a few months prior to the race, he and fellow team members stopped a few miles outside of Rainy Pass to camp out in an area with multiple available cabins before continuing the next day. That night, his dogs were huddled together in fear and kept moving around the cabin away from something outside.
Two friends flew into Platinum to spend the day and encountered a sasquatch in the open tundra and chased them back to their plane.
Also a brief share from Walt who encountered a sasquatch on his property about ten years ago.
A veteran 92-year-old trapper recounts a terrifying ordeal from the twilight of his trapping career in 1984, northeast of Bethel in the remote Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Relying on an isolated backup cabin he typically avoided due to eerie sounds in the distance, his trapping season began smoothly—until he discovered his newly set wolverine traps repeatedly sprung and empty, reeking of a potent, musty ammonia odor.
This encounter shared by former Alaskan Don is one of the saddest I've recounted so far on this channel, especially for dog lovers. This story also supports the case that The Hairy Man is no friend of ours, and as recounted in stories all over, they have a real disdain for man's best friend.
This encounter involved a trio on the Yentna River at the end of caribou hunting season in 2019 while trout fishing.
I share an encounter from my cousin Nicholai and a few other relatives that happened on the Nuyakuk River.
I share an encounter from mid-winter of 1982 by Johnathan, who was trapping with his brother James near Lake Illiamna, Alaska's largest lake. Johnathan nor his brother ever returned to the area.
