The Bigfoot Theory

Welcome to my Bigfoot project showcase! Here, I’ve put together all the pieces of my work on the Bigfoot mystery, including my intro, rhetorical analysis, conspiracy-focused argument, conclusion, and works cited. This site basically organizes everything I’ve learned and written about the topic, all in one place.

About My Efforts

Throughout this project, I’ve explored Bigfoot from several different angles to understand why the legend has stuck around for so long. Each section of this site breaks down a different part of my work, from analyzing how Bigfoot is talked about in media, to explaining why some people view it as a conspiracy, to reflecting on what all this says about belief, evidence, and mystery in general. By putting all my pieces together here, I’m showing not just my final arguments, but also how my thinking developed along the way. Whether you’re someone who’s curious about cryptids or just want to see how these assignments connect, this collection gives a full picture of the Bigfoot discussion I built throughout the project.
