Bryce Johnson is an acclaimed actor/producer as well as creator and host of the popular podcast “Bigfoot Collectors Club”. Bryce has been obsessed with Bigfoot ever since he was a young boy. Although acting is his profession, researching the strange and unexplained along with crypto-zoological creatures is his passion. Those two pursuits converged in 2013 when Bryce starred in the critically lauded movie “Willow Creek,” a found-footage horror film about a quest to find evidence of Bigfoot. While researching his role, Bryce met Robert “Bob” Gimlin, the man who, along with Roger Patterson, captured the legendary footage of Bigfoot in 1967. That meeting and their subsequent friendship, cemented Bryce’s commitment to pursuing the truth about the existence of Bigfoot. You might also recognize Bryce from his many appearances on hit TV shows like "Pretty Little Liars" and films such as "Oppenheimer".
