West Virginia Bigfoot Museum

Throughout American history, even before the first settlers arrived, there have been stories of the unexplained across the American wilderness. Among the most enduring and alluring are the tales of Bigfoot. While this creature has been known by many names, first as "Hairy Man" by Native American tribesman in California, later as the Dark Watchers by Spanish settlers, today these creatures have appeared across the continent.

In modern times, known as Bigfoot, Sasquatch, or Skunk Ape appearances of this mysterious creature still pique the curiosity of millions around the globe. At the West Virginia Bigfoot Museum our mission is to aid those on their quest of discovering the undiscovered. With the Mid-Atlantic's largest collection of Bigfoot casts, hair, research, and stories of sightings the West Virginia Bigfoot Museum is sure to thrill everyone from the most avid Bigfoot hunters to enthusiasts and even those who are simply curious.

Drop by and explore our museum which features free admission as is connected to our Bigfoot Store with dozens of gifts and items to choose from. Connected to the museum is the Mountain Laurel Country store which features handmade crafts, art, and antiques from artisans across Appalachia.
