Terrorized by 'Big Foot', say three Racine youths
"When the story comes out, everyone in Racine is going to think we're crazy," maintains Patty
Brehm.
Patty, Kim and Dave Brehm say they saw a creature - tall, white and hairy - that looked like
the legendary Big Foot monster, and it trapped them in a cabin south of Stevens Point for two
days.
That's what happened, the three Racine youths claim, and they are sticking by their story
whether people think they are crazy or not.
Patty, 19, and Kim, 15, are the daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Rolly Brehm, 3028 Valley Forge Drive.
Their father is a local real estate agent. Dave, 15, is their cousin, the son of Marion Brehm,
Racine.
The three had gone on Aug. 6 to a cabin owned by Dave's mother for what they thought was going
to be a relaxing weekend vacation. It turned into what they said was a terrifying experience
and a nightmare caused by a mysterious creature that would not let them alone.
An incredible sequence of events started that Thursday.
When Patty, Kim and Dave arrived at the A-frame cabin near Plainfield, they unpacked their
belongings and that evening walked through the woods to a nearby pond.
"We heard these deep growls in the woods and we couldn't figure out what they were made by,"
said Dave. "Whatever it was, it yelled about 10 times in a row."
The trio passed it off as some kind of animal and returned to their cabin for the night.
Friday morning, Kim arose before the other two. She went outside the cabin and was sitting on
a bench when she thought she saw something watching her from the woods that surround the
cabin.
"I watched it for about ten minutes. At first I thought it was my imagination," she remembers.
"Then I thought it might be an Indian because it stood there so still."
But when the creature started moving towards her, she ran crying into the cabin. "I told David
what I saw and he said was crazy and to go back to sleep," Kim said.
She
told herself it was her imagination and tried to dismiss it. But later
that morning she saw the creature again - and this time close up.
"I had gone down the outside stairs and when I got to the bottom I saw it standing next to the
car," Kim said. She estimates "it" was only 20-30 feet away.
Kim desribes the thing as "at least seven feet tall, with huge shoulders." She said it was
covered from head to toe with thick, white hair which was "slick, not shaggy."
"The eyes were like deep black hollows in its head and you couldn't see any nose or mouth. I
was the only one who saw its eyes," she recalls.
Kim, crying, ran up the stairs and into the cabin once again. "They thought I was nuts, crazy."
Patty next went out onto the deck that surrounds the cabin. "I looked down and it was standing
next to the car, looking up at me," Patty said.
She went back into the cabin and Dave came out, but the creature was gone.
Now that two of them had seen the thing, the three decided to call the police. A police officer
came to the cabin questioned them, looked around, and saw nothing.
"The police thought we were a bunch of crazy kids, but I think the officer who came out
believed us. We were scared," Kim said.
Friday night, after dark, the creature appeared again. "I seen it at the edge of the woods and
I could see the upper half of its body," said Dave. "When I saw it, it kind of bent sideways,
then it ducked down and shot out towards the house. I went in and locked the door."
That night Patty, Kim and Dave claim they heard noises outside and downstairs in the garage
area.
"We heard crashes and doors slamming and we didn't sleep all night," Kim remembers. "We tried
to convince ourselves we weren't crazy."
Finally, when daylight came, the three were calm enough to sleep. In the early afternoon, they
woke up. Kim says she saw the creature again early Saturday afternoon while she was putting
make-up on outside the cabin. Later that afternoon, Dave had gone for a walk when the girls
claim they heard the creature outside the cabin.
"We heard clawing on the outside of the house and pounding, so we ran out while it was on the
other side, jumped in the car and got Dave. When we got back, nothing was there," Kim said.
When the sun went down Saturday night, the three youths decided to lock the doors. "As soon as it
turned dusk, we were locked in until Monday morning. It just terrorized us, like," Kim said.
Dave said the three could see the shadow of an animal walking back and forth in the light from the
cabin.
It was at that time that he thought he saw a second creature approach.
"The second one came up the stairs. I yelled at it. You couldn't put what I said in the paper,
but you can say I cussed at it. We were sick of it."
Dave says that when he yelled, he heard the creature break one of the garage door windows. "It
could've gotten in. There was nothing stopping him," Dave said.
The youths did not have a camera in the cabin so they could take no pictures. In fact, "We
didn't want to see it. We were scared," said Kim.
But the creature or creatures continued to stay around the cabin, looking in the windows,
pacing back and forth in view of the cabin and making noises outside.
"We stayed up at night and fell asleep during the day," Kim said. "Sunday night was worst. It
got very bold. It was patrolling us, like."
The Brehm cabin has living quarters upstairs with sliding glass doors that look out onto the
deck. "It came right up onto the deck," Kim said, "and we could see it walking back and forth
in front of the sliding windows. We sat there on the couch with axes and hatchets and kitchen
utensils for weapons."
The Brehm youths stayed awake all Sunday night. When morning arrived, the creatures left.
When Patty, Kim and Dave arrived home with their story, their family was unbelieving. Rolly Brehm
recalls: "I questioned each of them over and their story was the same. I was skeptical at
first but I saw fear in their eyes. Kim had to sleep with her mom the night they got back and
from what I understand from Dave's mom, Dave has had nightmares about it."
Rolly, who had recently recovered from a heart attack, decided he would go up to the cabin to
look around. He enlisted the help of a friend, Gordy Laren, owner of Gordy's Wheel Alignment,
1107 10th St.
The two men went up to the cabin Saturday, Aug. 15. They saw no creature but found evidence
they say supports the story of the creature.
The men found two sets of human-like tracks in mud next to the pond near the cabin. They made a
plaster cast of one of the prints. "The rest of the tracks were in the water," Laren said.
The casting shows a foot about 11 inches long with what appears to be six toes. The heel is
relatively narrow.
"From the way the front of the foot dug in, I would say the animal walks with its weight
forward and I would say it weighs about 165 pounds," Laren said.
Laren and Brehm also found two hairs they think might be from the creature. They plan to have
the hairs analyzed.
Brehm and Laren said they do not want the exact location of the cabin known.
"If people find out where it is you'll have guys from Milwaukee and Madison and Racine up
there with their guns and their six packs shooting at anything that looks like it will turn
white," Laren said.

(Published 1998 by Wild Flower Press, Mill Spring NC)
In his book "The Psychic Sasquatch," Jack Lapseritis provides his opinion about why this
Bigfoot may have been so aggressive:
There is another case involving aggression in the upper midwest. Patty and Kim Brehm and their
cousin Dave of Racine, Wisconsin, visited the family cabin for a weekend. It was located in a
remote region of north-central Wisconsin. While on a walk by a pond, they encountered a white
Sasquatch which growled and grunted from the forest and ran with incredible speed from tree to
tree. It was estimated to be approximately seven feet tall, weighing at least 300 to 400
pounds. The two young women became emotionally upset and frightened by this encounter and ran
to the cabin. The creature pounded on the door and walls of the cabin intermittently for two
days and even shattered a window but never followed through by breaking in. Yet the three were
terrified, convinced it wanted to kill them.
When interviewing Dave, I asked him if he initially threatened the creature in any way by
throwing rocks at it or attempting to shoot at it with a gun. He said: "No, that's just it,
we never did anything to the creature to hurt it." I asked him what his first thoughts were
upon seeing the Bigfoot. He replied "Oh, if I'd had a gun I would have shot it."
That probably was the reason for the Sasquatch aggression. I explained to Dave that the
creatures are profoundly psychic and can read a person's mind easily. Dave's thinking he wanted
to kill it was in reality telling the Sasquatch he wanted to. His negative thoughts were
unknowingly projected, and it angered the creature. It is no different from walking up to a
huge man hiking in the woods and saying to him: "Your size and looks frighten me; if I had a
gun I'd shoot you!" Try it some time. Threaten a large man, and you might well get a punch
in the nose. Nobody likes to be threatened, not even a giant Sasquatch. The creature apparently
overreacted, but this report should give additional insight into why some Sasquatch react with
aggression. Like attracts like. Think kind thoughts when in Bigfoot territory, because they can
monitor your mind. To these highly sensitive nature beings, you are what you think.
Indeed, you represent what your thought vibrations project to all living things in your
environment.
