Hello everyone, back in mid to late 80's my family had an experience on a langley farm, which has yet be explained. I lived in cloverdale on a farm and my uncles had leased some land out in langley near 0 ave we were both growing vegetables on both farms at the time, one day my uncle and two of his partners who worked and leased the land with him came over to visit and were sitting around and talking with my mom and dad, the oldest partner who everyone called uncle started telling us of how something was trying to scare them on the farm, he said one day he was plowing the fields with his tractor when he heard strange loud noises coming from the forested area which bordered the property line, he said they were loud enough to be heard over the noise of the tractor and the odd thing was he could not relate the sounds to any known animal, he said it definately was high pitch sound,then he went on to say on a seperate occasion while again driving the tractor in the fields he noticed a single tree branch fiercly shaking back and forth while the rest of the trees in the forest were still, he looked around and could not see any animal that was visible, something very strong was shaking that tree he said, the last and final incident occured one summer night my uncle and his partners had a camperized ford van which they travelled and slept in on the farm,as there was no other buildings on or near the property it was pretty isolated, one hot summer day they were asleep in their ford van after long day of work when they were suddenly awokened by something or someone pounding on the side of there van causing it to rock back and forth they awoke terrified thinking maybe it was some kids playing a prank but who would be out here in the middle of no wherre in the middle of the night the time was around 2-230 am, they shouted stop it and what ever it was stopped, then they went back to sleep all three of them came to the same conclusion that the farm was haunted and something was scaring them I was about 12 years old at the time this story occured these guys had never heard of big foot they were new immigrants to the country who lived and worked on the farms they could not explain the happening so they thought the place was haunted I had read about bigfoot at my school library and seen some information regarding a sighting on the news so i explained to them what it was and they were absolutely astonished to hear such a thing even existed,there was a long silence they did not speak but i could tell they were worried, I had visited this farm several times and can tell you that we had hunted dear at night that use to come and eat the vegetables we would sit in the back of the pick up and shoot them, maybe this was the creatures food source, I do remember my uncle telling me that alot of animals feed on their crops at night time they were losing alot of crop, well this is the story that occured my uncle is a truck driver now visits me a few times a month I will be taking him back out to that property to get some pics that i will post later, I have read of another sasquatch encounter in campbell valley regional park that occured it is listed in the bfro website and is not too far from there.
If the people and creatures are still in that area. It is very thickly wooded in parts there.
