Cliff Barackman and Melissa Barackman have brought to Oregonians, and to the World, an Oregon Bigfoot Museum. Thank you Cliff and Melissa.
At the 2021 Squatch Fest, Kelso, Washington, Cliff shared that it is so much more than a Museum, and that, “It is a Center.”

Right away you notice the commitment to sharing about the mystery of Bigfoot, and then allowing you to make your own conclusions. That is their mission at the North American Bigfoot Center; named after Cliff’s North American Bigfoot Blog at CliffBarackman.com.
As they shared quite clearly, what you experience in 2019 is the entrance and gift shop. Newer stages will include walk through areas that let you experience the Bigfoot world, including lessons on tree knocking, an outfitter department with everything you need if you want to go Bigfooting, theater for Bigfoot entertainment classics, and so much more, which all is depicted perfectly at the website:
NorthAmericanBigfootCenter.com
Some of Cliff’s friends, experts of the phenomenon, Thom Powell and James Bobo Fay will also have education input. We will keep you posted.*
How do we know all of this? Scott Minton, museum director for the North American Bigfoot Center, gave Bigfoot Eruption a tour. Scott, showed how the educational artifacts and replicas were meant to help the interpretation, then answered questions in the merchandise section. It was great!.
* Both Thom and Bobo appear in the Animal Plant show, FInding Bigfoot, with Cliff.
Check out the merchandise, where they believe in quality resources!
A wide variety of shirts, hats, and socks.
Bumper Stickers, Decals, lunch pales, and so much more. Also seen at their website shop.
The walls are lined with instructional foot and body castings from various regions, framed photos, classic posters, art, and artifacts of the Bigfoot phenomenon. Wall to wall, actually. See for yourself.
Melissa is a professional make-up artist, and surely influenced some of the exhibits.
Enjoy this free experience now, and then experience again with Cliff, Melissa, and Scott as the new stages are opened over time.
