It was 1:20 am on Friday June 12, 2026. It was stepping out of the woods on the eastbound side like it was going to cross the road.<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;I had my bright lights on and I saw it clear as day. When it saw my headlight a it turned facing me as it turned back into the woods. Its face [was] still looking in my direction as it took one stride back into the woods.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nHe added of the beast: &#8220;Its hair was matted with a brownish red look and its face was not like you see in pictures. It did have the ape like nose but its mouth was more human-like instead of an ape or chimpanzee. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;Its eyes didn\u2019t glow but did reflect the light enough to look hazy reflective. I got such a good look at its face that I can still see it. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;Its face was elongated not round. I figured it would have more facial hair but its was more skin than hair. It did have hair around the face that looked more like a mane. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;It was 7-8 foot tall and about 3-4 foot wide at the chest. By the time I passed it, it had already disappeared into the dark woods.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nDean was travelling with his wife at the time of the sighting but he told investigators she did not see the creature because she was looking down at her phone and she told him not to turn the car around in an attempt to get a second look.<BR><br \/>\nBFRO Investigator Matthew Moneymaker wrote: &#8220;I spoke with with Dustin at length by phone. He is a credible witness. He lives in Marshall Texas and has worked in the gas and oil industry in East Texas for over 20 years, after serving with the US Marines.<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;His wife was with him in the car. She did not see the sasquatch because she was looking down at her phone when they passed it. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;When her husband Dustin slowed down dramatically after passing it, he told his wife what he saw. He wondered whether he should turn around and go back to the spot. She said no to that and insisted they continue home.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nMatthew went on to note the area where Dean spotted the beast is well-known for sasquatch sightings, adding: &#8220;Dustin honestly had no idea that this location of his sighting has four (4) higher-probability factors intersecting at the same place: 1) Dense woods in East Texas, 2) Railroad bed, 3) Powerline route, 4) Feeder creek for the Sabine River (Little White Oak Creek).&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nHe went on to insist that anyone living in the counties near the Sabine River should but themselves a &#8220;good dash-cam&#8221; to record any potential sightings, adding: &#8220;If Dustin had a dash-cam running that night he would now have some compelling video footage.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2026-07-21 12:31:09 A motorist in Texas claims to have seen an eight-foot tall creature with a &#8220;human-like&#8221; face and a hairy mane lurking at the side of a highway.
