Return to Where the Legend Began at the Boggy Creek Monster Mingle

Fans of the Fouke Monster and the cult classic The Legend of Boggy Creek are invited to a full day of Bigfoot fun at the Boggy Creek Monster Mingle on Saturday, August 30, 2025, from 10 AM to 6 PM at the Boggy Creek Boutique in Fouke, Arkansas.

Admission is free.

Texarkana folks and the surrounding area all grew up with tales of the Legend of Boggy Creek. There are a lot of people around here who can share chilling stories of encounters that will make the hair on your neck stand up. The Boggy Creek Monster Mingle event features Bigfoot celebrity guests, live music, unique vendors, great food, and a Bigfoot short film festival. Special guest Mitch Laing, director of The Bogman, will be on hand for a Q&A session, followed by a special screening of the film that evening.
