One North Carolina resident maintains that she has been visited by the elusive creature on numerous occasions.
Vicky Cook, who lives in Shelby, claims that her backyard has become something of a magnet for the legendary cryptid and that she has been visited several times by multiple individuals.
She even has evidence of her unorthodox visitors in the form of plaster casts of footprints of various sizes as well as some low-resolution images taken using a trail camera on the property.
"Sometimes I think this can't be real," she said while describing one such encounter.
"It went in front of my camera. I screamed I didn't know what it was, but that thing was tall!"
Curiously, Cook also maintains that Bigfoot has something of a sweet tooth.
"Mostly like candy, cookies, they love peanut brittle, chocolate, peanut butter sandwiches," she said. "They don't like apples and bananas."
