Children come 'eye-to-eye with Bigfoot' after following awful smell in forest
A group of children came 'eye-to-eye with Bigfoot' after they followed a disturbing smell while on a camping trip.
The children were spending the night at Cooks Valley Campground in Mendocino County, California, when they claimed to have had an interaction with 'Bigfoot'.
The area is surrounded by huge Redwood trees and a dense, empty forest.
The Daily Star reports that the children were playing in a playground at the site when they caught a whiff of a 'God-awful smell', which led to the eight-foot-tall beast.
The 1963 sighting of the mythical beast has been categorised as a Class A sighting by the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, a group of 'amateur investigators' - who keep tabs on sightings in the US.

MendoFever, a website that features articles about Mendocino Country, ran a story looking back at the sighting in 2022 - 59 years after it took place.
Describing the moment the children came to close to Bigfoot, the site stated: "The children suddenly caught a whiff of a God-awful smell—a rank mixture of rotting deer carcass and skunk.
"The crew followed the stench with their eyes and found themselves eye-to-eye with the legendary Bigfoot.
"Standing near the treeline, the creature was eight feet tall and covered in brown hair from head to toe. The children had caught the wild man watching them play standing near the base of a redwood."
Over the years, there have been multiple reports of Bigfoot in the area, one of which ended in the beast allegedly killing three people on a marijuana farm in Mendocino.
But when it came to the camping children, Bigfoot decided to leave them in one piece.
The creature did not attack the children (Getty Images)"The children studied the Sasquatch, both strangers to each other. The creature hung tight to the tree line. Most kids in those parts had been told tales of Bigfoot. This was no bedtime story," MendoFever wrote.
"And then, it was over, Sasquatch simply turned around and walk into the dark, redwood forest."
Multiple children confirmed the account, detailing the awful smell and the ape-like figure staring back at them.
