What is the horrifying experience that unfolded in the woods?
Imagine your worst nightmare coming true. Scary, right? Well, for some people, it's a lot more terrifying. I live in a small town in the north. It's your cliche, everyone knows everyone. John's barbecue and grill is being held after church service on Sunday. Kids playing hopscotch with the other three kids their age. And of course... Almost everyone is living the American dream, white picket fences surrounding a two-story home with their kids and dog. I say almost everyone, because some of us aren't so lucky. Yeah, sure, you could say I had a rough childhood. It wasn't the worst, though. I still had a roof over my head and food to eat and some friends. Well, behind my house, there are about 10 acres of land.
Great for hunting, bad for getting lost. My parents, the kind souls they are, would let people hunt behind their house for free if they'd like to. Many people did. Of course, since it was free, the word went around town pretty quickly, and more and more people asked us to hunt. As more people asked, we obtained a reputation. Teens would say it's haunted, but the parents would make them hush up and be friendly. Of course, they were friendly. A town that is so worried about their own reputation, they get obsessed over every conversation. After working so hard, they wouldn't let their children soil it. The first Saturday night I returned home for winter break was easily the most horrifying experience I had ever witnessed. During my freshman year of college, I finally caught a break. A winter night, colder than an icebox. Well, that's expected. It's winter in the north. I was pretty bored and decided to call my friends to hang out. I called Sammy, Charles, and Alex. That was a mistake.
Sammy, Charles, and Alex were all bored and thought, why not? They came over to my house and after watching a few movies in the living room, we all were bored. We tried playing Monopoly, but Charles cheated and ruined the fun. Sammy jumped up like a kangaroo and asked, ''Do you want to go back into the forest back there? Explore a little?'' ''No way. First of all, it's way too cold out there. Secondly, we could get lost super easily. It's snowing, so we would probably lose our tracks and never find our way out.'' "'And what if there's ghosts? "'You know the reputation it has,' Alex exclaimed. "'Relax, Alex. "'We don't know if there's any ghosts there or not. "'Besides, we can just take some string or something "'so we don't get lost,' Charles replied. "'Well, it'll be fun, right?
"'Just a few minutes in there, we'll be fine. "'We won't get lost. "'I tried to convince myself it would be fun.' although I had always hated my backyard. I'm not a kid anymore. I can face my fears. Plus, the rumors were just immature teenagers trying to scare each other, right? "'Danny, are you serious right now? "'You hate that forest,' Alex replied. "'I know, I'm not a kid anymore. "'I can handle it. "'Plus, those rumors must have been just rumors "'to scare each other.'" The last time I went into that forest was two years ago. I didn't see anything noteworthy, I said. Okay, fine, I'll go. But if we see anything, I'm the first one out of there. Got it? Alex said. Great, yep, got it, Charles replied. Okay, I said. I may be scared, but I'm not going alone. It'll be fine.
Yeah, it'll be fun. I grabbed four spools of thick string, green, red, blue, and yellow, and four flashlights. We were walking outside when we realized how cold it was. I checked my phone. The weather app says it's only 20 degrees Fahrenheit, but it felt like maybe 12 degrees, if not less. The snow was up to our ankles. Luckily, we had boots. It felt as if we were standing in a thick slushy. Can we please hurry this up? I'm really cold, Alex said. Yeah, aren't we all? Sammy, Charles, and I replied. We continued walking until we got to the tree line. There were trees of all different sizes. Large, compact, lanky, narrow, overgrown. Any type of tree you could think of, it was there. The numerous branches had thick, fluffy snow on it. It was dark outside.
