Mockup of Kecksburg UFO on Festival Grounds
Kecksburg located in Mount Pleasant Township in Westmoreland County, is located about 40 miles SE of Pittsburgh. This rural community has become a location of international interest after a mysterious object reportedly fell from the sky into a nearby wooded area on December 9, 1965. What that metallic acorn shaped object with strange hieroglyphic-like symbols may have been is still being debated. The military that arrived on the scene that night apparently recovered the device and hauled it away.
The Kecksburg festival will be held on the volunteer fire department festival grounds. The location is Claypike and Rt. 982. The address is 5128 Water Street, Kecksburg, PA. For more information and event details visit the Kecksburg V.F.D. website at: www.kecksburgvfd.com or this website, or call 724-423-9540.

Three Mysterious Creature Encounters Reported From Pennsylvania
Three very interesting encounters with some very unusual creatures have come to my attention recently from Pennsylvania. The Keystone State has a long history of not only observations of Bigfoot, but also of many other mysterious beasts as well. Year after year members of the public reluctantly come forward to report their encounters with strange creatures that aren’t supposed to exist. The following is a summary of some of the recent cases that I have been investigating. For more information, see the Special Report right here…

New bigfoot movie to include area researchers
A new movie concerning the topic of Bigfoot encounters in Pennsylvania will be filmed in various locations of the state, including Westmoreland County this year. Among the Pennsylvania Bigfoot investigators who will have a part in the film will be Eric Altman, Director of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society, Dave Rupert, and Denny Calisti. Stan will also be appearing in the production. Local filming is expected to take place in April. The film company is hoping for a late 2012 release date.
The film is called, Mountain Devil: The Search for Frank Peterson.
Promo trailer
The following details about the upcoming flick was provided by Producer Ryan Cavalline, of Raw Footage.
Mountain Devil: The Search for Frank Peterson is a fictional piece with documentary information in it. What you will be seeing is field investigations, true eyewitness statements, evidence that was found by field investigations, and the experiences we had while on the investigations in several parts of the PA area along with a fictional story…. I say fictional but, the story was created from several Bigfoot eye witness accounts, journal writings, sightings, and other stories on the Bigfoot in the PA area.
What I’m hoping to create is a fun film for b-movie lovers and yet give factional information about Bigfoot in the PA area. Other movies that this can be compared to are The Last Broadcast – which was a fictional/documentary on the Jersey Devil and The Legend of Boggy Creek – Which I’m sure we’ve all seen and love.
Filming will take place in the Rockton (Clearfield) area and in the Chestnut Ridge area. Principle shooting will also take place in the Bedford, PA area”.
