Melissa Hovey Addresses Georgia Bigfoot Group's Facebook Posting of ABS Bigfoot Photograph

By -

On Tuesday a Facebook group based in Polk County, GA published a Bigfoot photograph they claim was from a trail cam located on the Paris Mountain area. What's interesting about their claim is that it's the same photograph Melissa Hovey of the American Bigfoot society released in early 2012. Melissa (who now owns the rights to the photograph) had been in possession of the photograph for 4 years before she decided to release it publicly. When word got out that the Georgia Facebook group had published her photograph, friends of Hovey demanded the Facebook group to remove the image and the story from their page. The group complied and the post is gone. In a new blog post, Hovey explains the situation:

I sent a message to the Facebook account last night - asking for their side of the story. I wondered, with all the hoaxing going on lately - if they had been hoaxed. The person behind the account emailed me back and told me the photo was sent to him and as soon as he found out it was owned by someone else - they removed it.

This person also stated they would be removing their Facebook page. This saddens me. If they received this in an email - they were the victims of a hoax - they did not intend to try and commit a hoax on the community. They should have done some checking around to see if the photo was already out there, yes, but I have the feeling they are new to the "online world of bigfooting"..

As far as I know the only change to the photo was the removal of the copyright at the bottom of the photo - so the hoaxer did not even perform the easy task of Photoshop to change something about the photo to make it different.

      Is Melissa Hovey ever going to earn to use the word "seen" correctly? "My friends seen it..." Or the proper use of a comma? Face meet palm.

      Very true, she couldn't stand not having her name in the Bigfoot news. I know for a fact that she knows where the photo came from. She also knows that its a costume used in a movie.

      Shes's as big of a hoaxer that can exist.

    Melissa tried to hoax footers.. Got caught, and blamed it on an anonymous email. She also said she has 3 more if the set, one of which shows most of a face.

Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works. We'll keep you updated on any further announcements for sure.

Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.

Bigfoot injured by a forest fire was taken away and hidden by the authorities, not even Robert Lindsay can top this story

This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from
