Again, picture a completely pitch black road with thick forest on either side, and only my headlights to show what's in front of me.

This was a family of three, four, a tall, slim woman, an average height and weight man, a child, short hair but couldn't tell the gender based on the clothes and couldn't see their face, maybe around eight years old, and the mother was pushing a fucking stroller.

Their clothes looked normal, not tattered but not nice.

They also were not carrying any kind of light source, meaning before I arrived behind them in my car, they had been walking in the pitch black.

They were all facing away from me, walking completely silent in the middle of the street, the same direction I was heading.

I had turned my music down to hear if they were speaking, had music playing, etc.

They didn't.

The hairs on my arms immediately stood up.

I came to a stop on the road behind them, obviously, and just sat there for a moment to let them move.

They seemed to be completely unaffected by me and didn't even turn their heads slightly.

nor did they attempt to move out of the way.

I literally thought I was going insane or that I was dreaming.

It was so surreal.

Before I really had any time to fully process and register what I was seeing and how truly strange it was, they all, at the same time, stopped walking and very slowly turned to face my car.

This scared the absolute shit out of me.

I honestly didn't even give myself time to look at their faces as they turned.

I immediately threw my car into reverse and sent it backwards probably for about a full 20 seconds before flipping a U-turn, nearly running myself off the road and booking it in the other direction.

The only thing I remember noticing is the stroller looked to be completely empty.

This was the part that sticks in my mind the most.

I never felt terror like that in my life.
