Daniel J. Benoit
Founder & Researcher
(Cryptozoologist)
As a child growing up exploring the outdoors and hunting with his father, Daniel became quite familiar with wildlife at an early age. He heard stories of bigfoot but it wasn’t until he saw the Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin film in 2010 that a fire of curiosity sparked within him. It was then he decided he would take what he knew about the outdoors and start his own research into the elusive creature.

Around that time, the subject of Bigfoot was becoming slightly less taboo and more open for discussion. And thanks to social media, bigfoot communities started developing. It was there that Daniel soon began researching reported sightings and commonalities between them; tree structures and their possible meanings; different theories as to what bigfoot is; and footprints versus known wildlife tracks. He also began studying great apes and the similarities they share with bigfoot such as long howls, whoops, tree knocks and tree-structure formations, as well as the comparisons to the various characteristics and Behaviors.

He went into the woods with heightened awareness and an open mind and it wasn’t long before he discovered large, bipedal humanoid tracks. At that very moment, what started as a fire of curiosity turned into a passion and the East Coast Bigfoot Researchers Organization (E.C.B.R.O.) was born.

Since then, Daniel has conducted fieldwork in several deep remote locations all along the east coast. And on one of those investigations in his home state of Virginia, he would have his first sighting: a family of Bigfoots. But Daniel states that he was a “knower” of bigfoots existence prior to even seeing them based on all the other data that has been collected both from his own research and fellow colleagues in association with the ECBRO.

Daniel has spoken at several events along the east coast and has been featured in the following Bigfoot documentaries “Elusive Legend – An E.C.B.R.O. Story”. Also Starring in The Beast Of Elkhorn Lake on Hometown Haunts Series found on Paraflixx, and Featured on Hunt for the Shawnee Sasquatch Which was filmed in Illinois And coming soon - I BELIEVE IN BIGFOOT. He has also been the featured guest on numerous podcasts & radio shows and hosts a podcast called “ECBRO Bigfoot Radio”. He is also an author of bigfoot research field guides and has his own YouTube Channel called “Bigfoot Zone (ECBRO)”.

He decided to start the ECBRO to not only develop a strong community of researchers but to also educate and bring awareness to everyone. Because everyone deserves to know the truth and learn what is out there. Daniel started hosting public lectures at libraries, sharing his research and his Scientific based beliefs. Daniel has also spoke at Universities in Virginia and has gotten the attention of Skeptics with his views on the Subject.

Bigfoot Explorers (2025)

Bigfoot Explorers follows cryptid researcher Daniel Benoit and his team as they venture into dense forests, secluded lakesides, and remote backwoods in pursuit of one of the world's most enduring legends. Each episode documents their journey as they set up base camps, review witness accounts, and prepare for the unknown.

The series begins with Daniel introducing viewers to the investigators: David and Melissa Lester, Drew Barker, and John and Mary Nicely. Together they map out hotspots where reports of sightings, strange noises and unexplained tracks have been documented for decades. With cameras rolling, they pack their gear and trek into wilderness where human presence is scarce.

Early episodes highlight their methodology. By day they scour riverbanks and ridgelines for broken branches, footprints, and hair samples. At night they set up thermal cameras and listening devices, recording eerie vocalizations that echo through the trees. The team reacts in real time, debating whether the evidence points to wildlife or something far stranger.

As the season progresses, the expeditions intensify. Viewers witness late-night stakeouts in total darkness, tense walks through fog-covered trails, and the sudden discovery of massive tracks that dwarf human footprints. In one chilling sequence, the group is startled by movement in the brush just beyond the reach of their flashlights, a reminder that they may not be alone.

The investigators balance their scientific approach with the emotional weight of chasing a legend. They interview locals whose lives were changed by encounters in the woods, from hunters who abandoned lifelong grounds to families who refuse to camp outdoors. These testimonies are woven together with the team's on-the-ground research, creating a layered narrative that is equal parts documentary and survival thriller.

By the end of the season, the Bigfoot Explorers have gathered a library of audio, video, and physical evidence. Yet the deeper question remains: have they uncovered proof of a hidden species, or have they stepped into a mystery that cannot be solved? The series closes by inviting viewers to draw their own conclusions, while reminding them that the search for Bigfoot is far from over.

Bigfoot Explorers is a series about discovery, belief, and the razor's edge between myth and reality. It is an episodic chronicle of investigators who risk safety and sanity to reveal what lurks in the forests, a journey that blurs the line between documentary, horror, and the unshakable power of folklore.
