fouke monster

The month of October always seems to bring out odd stories and bizarre occurrences that have happened in every state including Arkansas. Some you can explain some still remain a mystery today.

If you're going to be famous for something how cool is it to be famous for the movie "The Legend of Boggy Creek"? Can you say... Fouke Monster, Sasquatch, Bigfoot? Can you say the 50th anniversary of the movie premiere?

I stumbled across a video yesterday that caught my attention, one, because it involves Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti, Fouke Monster, whatever you want to call it. Two, because the screams were recorded right here where we live in Miller County Arkansas.

The annual Fouke Monster Festival is set for Saturday, August 1, at the Arkansas Convention Center - Holiday Inn. The event which typically is held in June was recently rescheduled for August due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Texarkana and the surrounding area may be buzzing with movie crews again soon, with the possibility of a "Fouke Monster" type movie being shot in Texarkana and the surrounding area.

This Saturday evening in downtown Texarkana, the Silvermoon will be hosting a "Charles B. Pierce Mini-Retrospective" to honor and commemorate the life and works of one of the founding fathers of the independent film movement.
