Two Field Workers Saw Something Pull Itself Through a Florida Swamp

A fur-covered hand rose from the swamp water. Long fingers gripped a cypress knee. Two field workers near Chipley, Florida, watched something pull itself forward—and fled through four-foot-tall grass.

The recording artist known as Shadowyze joins Jeremiah Byron to share the unexplained encounters that inspired his cryptid music. His account of a 2022 Florida survey includes a tall, blurry figure beside a tree, a sudden movement into the water, and another scare as the workers tried to finish their job.

On a West Virginia ranch, Shadowyze recalls nightly knocking against a mobile home, oversized tracks, and a flashlight glimpse of a wolf-like animal he estimated was the size of a lion. In Ocala National Forest, he describes waking to something pushing the wall of his tent inward.

From repeated wood knocks and unusual tree structures to encounters he associates with Bigfoot and Dogman, Shadowyze walks us through what he remembers—and the questions he still carries.
