Earlier this evening (6-5-21) 4 of us were boating at Salt Fork in Ohio. I live less than 10 miles so I’ve fished and boated out here for years. This evening (8pm, lake is very busy with several boats in ski zone), we decided to take a break from the ski zone and headed back into a cove for a few minutes. After going about half way back into the cove, we all heard an unusual sound come from our back left (heavily wooded area). It was loud enough to hear over the motor. I shut off the engine so we could figure out what it was. The only way I can describe the sound is like an old mechanical tornado/air raid siren starting to wind up. The sound had a very unusual pronounced low end frequency, or “bassy” in layman’s terms. You could literally almost feel the sound. There are no sirens located out here. I have never heard a sound like that out here, or anywhere before. We’ve all heard stories of Sasquatch being out here, but I’m very skeptical of this stuff and joke about it usually on every outing. I thought it was unusual, but “Bigfoot” was definitely not my first answer as to what we heard. After we got back home and kids in bed I googled “Bigfoot air raid siren” and eventually came across an audio clip called the Ohio Howl from the BFRO website, and it’s very close to sounding like what we heard, except ours was closer to us. http://bfro.net/avevid/SOUNDS/Cuyahoga_OH_howl_March_2015-clip.mp3

Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
Nothing is tracked back to you and nothing is sent on your behalf. The link is just the page you are reading.
