Across the United States, a disturbing pattern is emerging: upright canid predators shadowing
hunters, pacing hikers from the timber, circling campsites, and appearing along ridgelines and
backroads with chilling intelligence. Witnesses from the Midwest, Appalachia, the Southern
Corridor, and the Northern Forest Belt are describing the same creature — and the same
predatory behavior — across thousands of miles.
The Dogman Surge breaks down the most terrifying encounters from each region, revealing a
nationwide pattern of movement, adaptation, and escalating contact. From silent tracking in
Missouri to territorial pressure in Kentucky, from rockthrowing in Texas to impossible
disappearances in the Adirondacks, this episode uncovers the behaviors that unite these
encounters into one disturbing truth: something is moving across America’s forests… and it’s
getting closer.
If you’ve experienced something in the deep timber — footsteps, pacing, eyeshine, or a presence
that felt wrong — you’re not alone.
