It’s time to turn off the t.v., turn the lights down low and settle in for a creeeeepy episode of Native ChocTalk. But be sure to keep a blanket close by in case you need to hide underneath.
He’s said to have claws like the eagle – sharp talons in the shape of a teardrop. Natives in the U.S. say the babies alone can get up to 8 feet tall and some Canadian tribes say 15-20 feet is the norm. Some enjoy the thought of a creature whose face we stamp on a t-shirt. Others caution us to avoid the ferocious giant.
We know him as Bigfoot – the hairy, elusive beast who keeps trackers, hunters and fans busy all year long.
Hear about the origin of Bigfoot, enjoy a cameo appearance from my friends and former guests, Solomon and LaVon Tonihka, who talk about Bigfoot’s appearances in Wright City, Oklahoma. And I'll share some eerie Choctaw folklore such as the Shadow People (Nalusa Falaya) and a version of The Leflore County Bigfoot War that I wrote just for you.
Please enjoy a safe and fun Halloween but whatever you do, keep an eye out for Bigfoot and Nalusa Falaya!
