Announcement: Bigfoot Ballyhoo has been under attack, in the past, by a couple of people who wished Ballyhoo and its editors to look as if they were hoaxing information.

One of the biggest examples would be the claim that we made up the ESP Team, Bill Emery, Cole Saxton and the late Hank Parchell. A well-known bigfoot researcher found photos that looked like Emery, Saxton and Parchell. He claimed the three to be the real men and not any part of the ESP Team. (In fact, he claimed there was no ESP Team).

And then while the Emery Team was processing trail cam photos a couple were sent to Ballyhoo. These photos turned out to be well-known bigfoot photos, one from a movie and one of Patty. The technician’s son that was processing the trail cam photos replaced the real photos with fakes. In good faith Emery sent the dallied-with photos to Ballyhoo. When it was found out what happened it was explained.

Another photo of a footprint with a believable history was given Ballyhoo to post. Turned out to be Tim Fasano’s photo from Florida. Again, we’ve given explanations for each occurrence. We were hoaxed.

We in time recognized each hoax and explained what happened

A Bigfoot Newspaper Column



When some of my friends find out that I’m a bigfoot believer, they often can’t believe it. It’s difficult for them to picture me poking around the forest with a gun strapped to my waist; after all, when they are in my company I’m usually in heels and a skirt.

I once in a while wonder how I arrived at the point of mentioning my interest in bigfoot with little or no reason. Well, I take it back. I do know. I live in Oregon and one doesn’t have to go far to enjoy the wonderful world of wild mountains and forests. One can be traveling the freeway and pass through some of the most beautiful forests on a simple shopping trip to a near city.

And for that reason conversation can easily turn to the deer one has seen along the roadway, or just missed hitting as it shot across the road in front of the vehicle they were in. It’s an easy step to mention bigfoot from there.


“But, Linda, from fashion writing to bigfoot! It’s just so hard to believe,” a friend said last week. And yes, I too am surprised to find myself a bigfoot newspaper columnist (Feb. 2012 it will be four years).

If time allows in such conversations, I often explain that when my husband, Christopher Perry, and I gave up our interest in the local newspaper, I searched for a topic to write about that would keep me involved with the paper. I was mildly interested in bigfoot and so started the column, “A Matter of Time.” At one time the column was published in three local papers. (The ownership of two of the papers changed. Neither new one cared for the subject of bigfoot and so dropped the column.)


My husband and I also write an online bigfoot magazine, Bigfoot Ballyhoo. The original idea of the magazine was to gather information for the newspaper column. Bigfoot Ballyhoo (www.bigfootballyhoo.blogspot.com) has worked beautifully for that. We enjoy publishing forest photos on the site along with news of bigfoot.


This time of year has always been slow for news of bigfoot. Many believe bigfoot comes down from the high mountains this time of year. If you journey to the forest, please do watch for it. Snap a photo if you can, and then tell us about it.

 Our address is Perry’s, P.O. Box 334, Sutherlin, Oregon. And, surprise your friends, tell them about your interest in bigfoot! Until next week, Linda Newton-Perry
