It came down 2/3 feet to the point where I had to lie down so it didnt touch me.
Its far too dangerous out in the wild.
Ive hiked there a few times to witness the weird.

Basically, you stand on a hill across from the house and the porch light appears.
When you walk to the house, theres no light on.
No lights work at all actually as the house is completely abandoned.

Whats creepy is Ive seen this many times with many people and its always the same.
These houses always have a story, dont they?

Really scared the shit out of me and the two guys with me.
I sent them back down the hill and called up the duty desk for the nearby post.

Someone crushed the roof of our tent with their hands
Went camping with my boyfriend when I was 19.
We werent in a designated camping site, just out in the wilderness of Northern Scotland.
Apart from the midges we hadnt seen another organism for nearly a day.
We had a fun evening drinking and watching the stars, fucking under natures canopy etc.
He fell asleep before me cause hes a lightweight.
It came down 2/3 feet to the point where I had to lie down so it didnt touch me.
I was scared shitless for the rest of the night.

We were in Texas, pretty far out in the middle of nowhere, away from city lights.
I dont recall the name of the area.
I dont recall what actual direction we were facing, we were just lined up the same way.
We broke up the sky into sections (e.g.
top left, top middle etc) and started watching for satellites.
We were stunned… even more so when they stopped.

But as we walked by, they appeared to be holding hands around the dog in a prayer circle.
I heard the (assuming) father say, Lord like, do not let this dog kill again.
I have no idea what was up with this dog.

I assume he was just trying to scare the shit out of people, and he succeeded brilliantly.

Not an official campground.
On the way down to it, there was an old school bus and some creepy guy living in.
Creeped the hell out of me as a kid.

We were surrounded by a bank robber and a SWAT team
Its always the people that are creepy.
I nodded and said hello, as one should do when they pass someone in the woods.
He mumbled something and scurried on by.
I didnt think much of it.
Commented to my girlfriend at the time that he was an asshole.
We had a nice hike, summitted the mountain, and began to head down.
On the way down, two big vans pulled up.
Men in full swat uniforms and AR-15s popped out.
They ran uphill past me, rifles at the ready.
Turns out, the guy I passed had just robbed one of the towns banks.
They guys who passed me where the SWAT team going to pick him up.

It was winter and we were trying to hike a favorite summertime trail.
I decided we would take our time and finish the trail, but take an easier route back.
A minute later we hear the guy hollar.
My daughter and I just laughed and kept walking.
We finished our walk and went back to the car.
I noticed the lab in the parking lot and cursed him as I drove away.

We were stuck in complete silence
Complete silence.
No animal noises, no birds chirping and no leaves rustling.
Nothing for hours until we pitched camp.
Scat and tracks everywhere, but not any other trace of critters.

He lives in a very rural area.
Meteor shower was cool, and then we all went to the tent to go to sleep.
I remember going in and out of sleep.
Guys did look around outside of the tent and no one saw anything.
At about 3 AM, we all woke up with a completely creeped out feeling.
My friend turned on a light.
It flashed and went out.
We all instantly grabbed our sleeping bags and walked to his house and wound up sleeping in the basement.

No boys allowed just little girls, their moms (or in this case, older sisters.)
So imagine our surprise when this guy just shows up at about 11 PM with an axe.
He wasnt drunk, but he just seemed… off.
And he had an axe.
Not even a backpack.
Just some dude at nearly midnight in a Girl Scout camp with an axe.
We yelled at him to leave.
We told the owner of the campsite and he never found anything.

This freaked us out and the villagers thought we had satanist worshipers.

We would drive around on ATVs all night with spotlights looking for prairie chickens.
No lights, no vehicles, nobody nearby.
Mind you, we were working in incredibly remote areas in Wyoming.
This was prairie, we could see everything around us for miles.
We saw that light, but now it was nowhere to be seen.
Anyways, that was weird.

A mysterious gray film hovered in the air
Went camping with a friend in a isolated southeastern forest.
We started a fire, cooked chicken, talked and he went to sleep fairly early.
I lean up to get it out of my pocket and I see it.
A grey film hanging in the air.
My first instinct is its the moon reflecting light off the aluminum foil onto the rock ceiling.
I look for the aluminum foil cant see it.
I look for the moon its raining, no moon.
Thats the moment I realized I had no idea what I was looking at.
Thats the only time Ive ever felt actual terror in my life.
I immediately scrambled back and yell for my friend to wake up.
And the smudge hesitated then accelerated away and dissipated as if it was never there.
It was just slightly brighter than the dark wall behind it.
No idea what it was, damn interesting though.

We saw plenty of strange things.
Ranging from the Marfa lights while on our way by car to our canoeing section.
But nothing beats this one strange thing only I saw.
The first day was alright with nothing too challenging.
The second day things got weird for our group.
We heard footsteps near us but no one was around.
We were going to start heading east once we reached it.
But we decided to take a break near it.
So we placed our bags on the ground and started to talk and snack.
About 10 minutes into the break I needed to pee.
So I wondered away about 30 feet closer to the cabin and started my business.
I could look inside the cabin while I was standing there so I peaked inside.
And I swear to god I saw a whispy looking man inside the cabin standing there looking at me.
He was wearing an old tattered, dirty cotton shirt and brown pants.
With a long white beard.
As I saw the man a chill was sent all through my body.
None of them believed me so they joked a bit but I was quite distraught by this.
The rest of the day was fine until night came around and we all heard the foot steps again.
So we all become on edge and pulled out our camp knifes and kept them close.

Pitch black, you cant see anything without a flashlight.
Out of the blue, my little cousin who was about three at the time starts crying.
When my uncle asked him what was wrong, he just kept repeating help, guy come.
He couldnt yet talk in complete sentences yet, which made the whole situation even more terrifying.
Nobody slept well that night.

Me and Omar told them about what we found later.
They didnt even leave the cabin for smores that night.

Curious, I decide to go check it out.
As I start to get closer, I quickly realize what the object is, a little girls stroller.
Thankfully, it was empty.
Still creepy to see something like that randomly placed out in the middle of nowhere.

Those footsteps followed me for at least half an hour but it felt like a lifetime.
I never saw what it was.

Its by a small pond with only 4-5 families, all small vacation houses that are only sporadically occupied.
Theres 0 cell phone service in this region.
He yelled out something, and the person replied again, but my friend didnt understand.
He said maybe it was Dutch.
So I tried shouting in English, but this time the person didnt respond at all.
None of us were able to really go back to sleep, it was just creepy.
This is areallyremote area, that nobody would ever be there by mistake.
To this day its probably my biggest wtf moment.
I still worry that it was a lost tourist or something who stayed lost in the Brasilian bush.

I offered him a greeting, dont remember exactly what I said.
He had cold eyes and was just generally spooky.
We were pretty far out from the nearest town, and he had zero hiking gear.
Normal clothes that looked clean enough.
We passed him, and kept trudging on up the trail.
I glanced back over my pack and the guy just turned and walked into the brush.
We stopped hiking that area.
