I'm the kind of person who finds peace in nighttime drives the darkness the empty streets and the Silence of the sleeping world have a calming effect on me it's like the world pauses just for me giving me space to think reflect and enjoy the Solitude that night started like any other I was driving home from my friend's place about a 30-minute trip through some back roads and wooded areas the kind of drive that's peaceful where you can roll down the windows and let the cool night air in accompanied only by the hum of the engine
and the chirp of crickets but that night something was different something felt off the road was unusually quiet even for that time of night no headlights in my rearview mirror no cars coming from the opposite direction just me the road and the trees lining the sides their branches reaching out like skeletal fingers the sky was clear a thin sliver of moon casting a pale light over everything but it did little to chase away the shadows as I drove deeper into the woods the trees seemed to close in their dark shapes pressing against the sides of
the road I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing up that instinctual warning that something wasn't right I shook it off chalking it up to nerves or maybe just the Eerie Stillness of the night but then I heard it at first I thought it was my imagination just the wind rustling through the leaves or maybe the creek of an Old Branch but then it came again clearer this time a scream high-pitched and desperate cutting through the silence Like a Knife my heart skipped a beat and I instinctively slowed down straining to
hear the scream came again a woman's voice full of Terror and pain it was coming from the woods just beyond the trees I pulled over my mind racing should I investigate call the police every Instinct in me said to get out of there but another part of me a stronger more foolish part felt compelled to help what if someone was in trouble what if she needed help I grabbed my phone and flashlight stepping out of the car into the cool night air the forest was dark the trees casting Long Shadows across the ground I could
still hear the scream faint but unmistakable coming from somewhere deep within the woods I hesitated at the edge of the road my pulse pounding in my ears everything in me screamed to get back in the car to drive away and forget I ever heard anything but I couldn't just leave not knowing what was happening out there so against my better judgment I stepped into the trees as I walked deeper into the woods the scream grew louder I tried to follow the sound my flashlight Illuminating the darkness ahead but the beam seemed weak against the inky
Blackness that surrounded me the trees were thick their branches brushing against me like cold fingers and the ground was uneven littered with fallen leaves and twigs that crunched underfoot the farther I went the more I questioned my decision I wasn't a hero just an ordinary guy who liked night drives and Quiet Moments what was I doing wandering into the woods in the middle of the night but the scream kept pulling me forward driving me deeper into the forest and then suddenly it stopped the silence was deafening the abrupt absence of sound sound more terrifying than
the scream itself I stood there Frozen my heart racing as I scanned the trees with my flashlight but there was nothing just the darkness and the oppressive Stillness of the woods a wave of fear washed over me cold and paralyzing what if this was a trap what if someone was luring me into the woods for some Sinister purpose my mind raced with possibilities each one more horrifying than the last I could feel my breath Quicken my hands shaking as I gripped the flashlight then then out of the silence I heard it again a soft almost
imperceptible sound like a whisper carried on the wind I strained to listen turning slowly on the spot and then I heard it clearly it was behind me I spun around the flashlight beam slicing through the darkness but there was nothing there just trees and shadows but the whisper continued closer now brushing against my ear like a cold breath help me the voice was soft pleading and I felt a chill run down down my spine it was the same voice that had screamed but now it was different less desperate more insistent as if it was trying
to Draw Me Closer the normaly of the night drive had completely evaporated replaced by an overwhelming sense of dread I was no longer in control no longer enjoying the Solitude now I was trapped in a nightmare a dark and twisted version of the piece I had sought I started to back away my instinct screaming at me to run to get out of the woods before it was too late but the voice followed me growing louder more urgent help me I couldn't see her but I could feel her presence close and menacing the flashlight beam flickered
and for a brief moment I thought I saw a shadowy figure just at the edge of the light but when I focused it was gone the whisper grew more insistent The Voice taking on a sharper more demanding tone help me my blood turned to ice the voice was no longer pleading it was threatening I could feel the cold breath on my neck sending shivers down my spine I turned and ran stumbling over roots and Fallen branches desperate to get back to my car but the voice didn't let up it followed me hissing in my ear
each word dripping with malice help me I need you I broke through the trees the road just ahead my car parked where I'd left it but the voice was right behind me now right so close I could feel the breath on my skin icy and sharp help me or you'll never leave I reached the car fumbling with the keys my hands shaking so badly I could barely get the door open the whisper was in my ear now cold and venomous wrapping around my mind like a noose help me or you'll regret it I finally managed
to get the door open and threw myself inside slamming it shut behind me my heart was pounding my breath coming in ragged gasps I locked the doors like turning the key in the ignition praying the engine would start for a moment nothing happened the car was dead the engine refusing to turn over and then out of the corner of my eye I saw it a figure standing at the edge of the woods just beyond the reach of the headlights it was a woman or at least something that looked like a woman her face was obscured
hidden in the shadows but I could feel her eyes on me burning with anger and hatred and then she started to move gliding toward the car with unnatural speed the engine roared to life and I slammed my foot on the gas the tires screeched as I peeled out onto the road the figure disappeared from view swallowed by the darkness but the voice stayed with me echoing in my mind help me or you'll never leave I drove faster than I ever had before the road a blur of trees and Shadows The Voice slowly faded replaced by
the Roar of the engine and the pounding of my heart but the fear remained a cold knot in the pit of my stomach I didn't stop until I reached my driveway the safety of home finally Within Reach but even as I stepped inside locking the door behind me I couldn't shake the feeling that something had followed me something dark and malevolent I collapsed on the couch my hands still shaking my mind racing with what I had experienced what was she why had she called out to me and what would have happened if I hadn't run
I turned on the TV hoping to drown out the lingering fear with the comforting noise of the world but the news only deepened my dread a woman's body had been found in the woods that night just a few miles from where I had been the details were scarce but the reporter mentioned something that made my blood run cold she had been found alone her body cold and stiff her face Twisted in Terror the story ended with a request for anyone with information to come forward as but I knew I wouldn't be one of them what
could I say that I heard her screams followed them into the woods and then ran like a coward when I felt her presence no I kept my mouth shut but the fear didn't go away it lingered a dark shadow at the edge of my thoughts whispering in the back of my mind help me or you'll regret it I haven't driven that road since and I never will but every now and then when I'm alone in the dark I think I hear her voice again soft and distant calling me back help me and I know deep
down that if I ever listen if I ever go back I'll never leave people often say I'm good at judging character and reading others it's a skill I've developed over the years as a traveling salesman driving from town to town meeting strangers from all walks of life I've had my fair share of strange encounters but nothing could have prepared me for what happened that night on the highway um it was late around midnight and I was on my way back from a business trip in a small town about 3 hours from home the road was
long and empty stretching out into the dark night the monotony of the road and the hum of the tires lulling me into a kind of Trance my only company was the occasional flicker of headlights from an oncoming car and the soft murmur of the radio playing some old rock song I barely paid attention to the night was calm the sky clear with a full moon casting a pale glow over the landscape I was about halfway home when I saw him a figure standing on the side of the road that his thumb outstretched in that Universal
gesture of desperation he was a young man probably in his early 20s with a backpack slung over one shoulder and a look of weariness etched into his features his clothes were dirty his hair disheveled and there was a shadow of stubble on his face but what struck me most was his eyes dark sunken with a haunted look that made me hesitate but only for a moment I wasn't in a hurry and the road was deserted something in me maybe a sense of pity maybe just the desire to break the monotony of the drive compelled me
to pull over where are you headed I asked as he approached the passenger side window Anywhere But Here he replied his voice flat emotionless I should have taken that as a warning but I didn't I unlocked the door and he climbed in tossing his backpack onto the floor between his feet thanks he muttered barely looking at me no problem I said of thy forcing a smile rough night you could say that we drove in silence for a while the only sound the steady hum of the engine and the faint crackle of the radio the guy
didn't say much just stared out the window his fingers drumming a nervous Rhythm on his knee I tried to make small talk asking him where he was from where he was headed but his answers were short vague just passing through he'd say or nowhere in particular something about him made me uneasy but couldn't put my finger on it maybe it was the way he avoided eye contact or the way he seemed to Flinch at every sound every bump in the road or maybe it was the way he kept glancing in the side head mirror as
if expecting to see someone or something following us I've picked up hitchhikers before mostly college kids or Drifters looking for a ride to the next town they're usually talkative grateful for the lift eager to share their stories but this guy he was different there was there was a tension about him a kind of quiet intensity that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up I tried to Shake it Off telling myself I was just being paranoid it was late I was tired and the guy was probably just having a rough night but
the unease wouldn't go away it gwed at me growing stronger with every mile and then he started to talk it's funny you know he said his voice low almost a whisper how things can change so quickly one minute you're fine everything's normal and the next everything's different everything's wrong there was something in his tone that sent a chill down my spine I glanced at him trying to read his expression but he was facing the passenger window yeah I said not knowing what else to say life can be unpredictable he let out a soft humorless laugh
unpredictable that's one way to put it we lapsed into silence again the tension in the car was thicker now I could feel my pulse quickening my hands tightening on the steering wheel something was wrong very wrong but I couldn't figure out what and then he turned to me his eyes locking onto mine you ever wonder what it's like to die the question hit me like a punch to the gut my mind raced trying to process what he just said I forced a laugh trying to keep the mood light but my voice came out shaky uncertain
I guess I haven't really thought about it I said my mouth dry he didn't respond right away just kept staring at me with those Dark Hollow eyes and then in a voice so quiet I almost didn't hear it he said I have my heart skipped a beat I glanced at him trying to gauge his mood trying to figure out if he was messing with me or if he was serious but his expression was unreadable his face a mask of calm I've thought about it a lot he continued his voice barely above a whisper about how
it would feel what it would be like to just let go the air in the car grew colder the silence pressing in around us I could feel my heart pounding in my chest my Palms slick with sweat I didn't know what to say didn't know how to respond all I knew was that I wanted him out of my car now but before I could say anything he spoke again I used to be like you he said his tone wistful normal happy had a good job a family everything I could ever want but then something happened
something that changed everything I swallowed hard my throat tight what happened he smiled but it was aold old empty smile devoid of any warmth I died the words hung in the air heavy with meaning my mind raced trying to make sense of what he was saying but nothing made sense was he speaking metaphorically or was he was he serious I didn't have time to think before he continued it wasn't quick he said his voice growing softer more distant it was slow painful I could feel everything every moment every sensation the fear the pain the darkness
it was like being trapped in a a nightmare you can't wake up from I glanced at him and for a split second I thought I saw something in his eyes a flicker of pain of fear but it was gone as quickly as it appeared replaced by that same cold empty stare and then it was over he said his voice flat emotionless and I was different I wasn't the same person anymore something inside me had changed something dark something wrong my breath caught in my throat my mind racing this guy whoever he was was clearly Disturbed
but there was something else something in the way he spoke in the way he looked at me that made me believe he was telling the truth and that terrified me I wanted to stop the car to pull over and tell him to get out but I couldn't my hands were frozen on the steering wheel my body Paralyzed by fear all I could do was keep driving the road stretching out before us you know what the worst part is he asked his voice barely audible I shook my head not trusting myself to speak the worst part
is you never really leave you're stuck in that moment that place forever and no matter how far you run no matter how hard you try you can't escape it I swallowed hard my heart pounding in my chest what what do you mean he turned to me his eyes locking onto mine and for the first time I saw a flicker of something in his expression desperation fear anger you can't escape he said his voice Rising no matter how fast you drive no matter how far you go it's always there waiting for you watching you ready to
take you back the tension in the car was unbearable the air thick with fear and uncertainty I didn't know what to do didn't know how to get out of this situation all I knew was that I needed to get away from him now but before I could say anything he leaned in closer his breath hot on my neck do you want to know what it feels like he whispered his voice dripping with malice do you want to know what it's like to die my breath caught in my throat my body trembling with fear I couldn't
speak couldn't move all I could do was sit there Frozen in Terror as he reached out his hand hovering just inches from my arm and then without warning he started to laugh it was a cold empty laugh devoid of any Joy or humor it sent shivers down my spine made my blood run cold I wanted to scream to shove him out of the car but I couldn't I was trapped trapped in this nightmare with no way out out and then just as suddenly as it had started the laughter stopped he leaned back in his seat
his expression calm almost Serene don't worry he said his voice soft almost gentle it's not your time yet I didn't know what to say didn't know how to respond all I knew was that I needed to get out of this situation fast so I did the only thing I could think of I slammed on the brakes the car screeched to a halt the tires skidding on the pavement before he could react I threw open the door and bolted running as fast as I could into the night I didn't look back didn't stop my heart pounding
my breath ragged when I finally stopped I collapsed on the side of the road my body trembling with fear and when I looked back he was gone the car was empty his words his laughter they stayed with me haunting me even now I can still hear him whispering in my ear telling me that it's not over not yet the night was cold too cold for the Early Autumn that had been unusually mild up up until then my breath fogged up the windshield as I drove down that desolate Highway the truck's heater working overtime to keep
the chill at Bay I had been driving for hours my destination a remote cabin nestled in the mountains a weekend getaway with some friends the road was winding stretching out like a dark ribbon through the dense forest and I hadn't seen another car for Miles there was a certain comfort in the isolation the sense that I was truly alone out here away from the noise and bustle of the city but as the road twisted and turned that Comfort began to wear thin replaced by a growing sense of unease it was the kind of road where
the darkness seemed to press in from all sides the headlights barely penetrating the thick veil of night and that's when the truck started to overheat at first it was just a flicker on the dashboard the temperature gauge creeping up into the red I frowned my grip tightening on the steering wheel as I glanced down the needle was climbing steadily a small warning that something was wrong great I muttered glancing at the dashboard the truck was old but it had never given me much trouble before I figured it was probably just the long drive the strain
of climbing the mountain roads in the cold but as the temperature gauge continued to rise I knew I couldn't ignore it any longer I slowed the truck to a crawl looking for a place to pull over the road was narrow flanked by thick trees on either side eventually I found a small turnout barely wide enough for the truck and pulled over the engine was hissing steam billowing out from under the hood as I stepped out into the cold night air the wind cut through my jacket biting into my skin as I popped the hood and
was greeted by a wave of heat the engine was practically glowing the metal shimmering with the intensity of the heat trapped beneath it I grabbed a rag from the back of the truck and carefully Twisted the radiator cap releasing a plume of steam that Rose into the night like a ghostly Apparition the smell of antifreeze was sharp in the air a pungent reminder of the trouble I was in I waited for the engine to cool the minut stretching out in the silence the woods around me were unner nerving quiet the only sound the faint rustle
of leaves in the wind I tried to shake off the feeling of unease that had settled in my chest but it clung to me gnawing at the edges of my thoughts after what felt like an eternity I finally felt it was safe to top off the radiator I reached for the jug of coolant I kept in the truck bed but as I did something caught my eye a flash of movement in the trees I froze the coolant jug halfway to the radiator my eyes scanned the trees line but there was nothing there just shadows and
darkness the trees swaying gently in the wind I shook my head telling myself it was just my imagination the isolation playing tricks on me but as I poured the coolant into the radiator I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched the kind of trouble I was in wasn't uncommon anyone who spent enough time on the road knows that breakdowns happen usually at the most inconvenient times I had been in situations like this before stranded on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere but something about this felt different more unsettling maybe
it was the cold or the darkness that seemed to press in on me from all sides but I couldn't shake the feeling that I wasn't alone out here I finished topping off the radiator my hands shaking slightly as I screwed the cap back on I needed to get out of here the truck was old but it should hold together long enough to make it to the cabin I slammed the hood shut glancing nervously at the trees half expecting to see something lurking in the shadows nothing I climbed back into the truck my breath coming in
quick shallow bursts the engine rumbled awake but the sound did little to calm my nerves I glanced at the temperature gauge still in the red but holding steady I needed to keep moving to get out of this stretch of road and back onto the main highway but as I pulled back onto the road I couldn't shake the feeling that something was following me every so often I would catch a glimpse of movement in the rearview mirror a shadow darting Between the Trees Too Fast to be human my heart pounded in my chest the adrenaline surging
through my veins as I pressed down on the accelerator the truck picked up speed but that the temperature gauge began to climb again the engine straining against the cold and then I saw it a figure standing in the middle of the road I slammed on the brakes the trucks getting to a stop just inches from the figure my heart leaped into my throat as I stared at the man standing in the road illuminated by the headlights he was tall dressed in a dark coat his face obscured by a hood pulled low over his eyes for
a moment we just stared at each other the truck idling in the middle of the road my mind raced trying to make sense of what I was seeing who was he what was he doing out here in the middle of nowhere on a freezing Night Like This and then he took a step forward his hand reaching out toward the truck my instinct screamed at me to hit the gas to get out of there as fast as I could I rolled down the window just a crack the cold air rushing in do you need help I
called out my voice shaking he didn't respond he just stood there his hands still outstretched as if waiting for something my mind raced with possibilities was he lost hurt or was this some kind of trap the figure took another step forward and I could see his face now pale and drawn his eyes Hollow and lifeless something wasn't right I'm sorry I muttered rolling the window back up and putting the truck in gear but before I could hit the gas the man's hand slapped against the window his face inches from the glass his eyes locked onto
mine and I felt a cold dread settle in my gut there was something wrong with him something inhuman please he rasped his voice barely audible over the Roar of the engine help me The Plea sent a shiver down my spine his voice was weak desperate but there was something else in it something that set off every alarm in my head I needed to get out of there now I floored the gas pedal the truck lurching forward but the man didn't move his hands scraped across the window leaving a streak of dirt as the truck sped
away I glanced in the rearview mirror expecting to see him standing in the road he but he was gone my heart heart pounded in my chest as I tore down the road my eyes flicking between the mirror and the road ahead the trees blurred past the headlights cutting through the darkness but I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched the road twisted and turned the truck straining to keep up with the Steep inclines the temperature gauge was back in the red the engine making a terrible rattling little rattling sound but I didn't care
I had to get as far away from that man as I could but then I saw him again he was standing at the edge of the road just beyond the reach of the headlights I swerved nearly losing control of the truck as I sped past him when I glanced in the mirror he wasn't there I slammed on the brakes the truck skidding to a stop in the middle of the road my heart was racing my breath coming in ragged gasps I was losing it there was no way he could have gotten there so fast um
it didn't make any sense but when I looked back he was standing in the road right behind the truck panic surged through me and I hit the gas the truck roaring to life I didn't look back this time I couldn't the trees flew pass the road a blur as I raced to put as much distance between me and that man as possible I drove for what felt like hours the truck groaning Under The Strain the temperature gauge was maxed out the engine on the verge of overheating but I couldn't stop not until I was sure
I was far away from that man finally I saw the lights of a small town up ahead a welcome sight in the darkness I pulled into the first gas station I saw the truck sputtering to a halt as I cut the engine I sat there for a moment my hands gripping the steering wheel my heart still pounding in my chest I didn't know what had just happened but I knew one thing I was never driving that road again at least not at night as I stepped out of the truck I glanced back at the road
the trees loomed over the asphalt their branches swaying in the wind for a moment I thought I saw something a figure standing at the edge of the trees watching me but when I blinked it was gone I never found out who or what that man was but I knew one thing for sure I wasn't going back to find out summer nights were perfect for late night dri something I'd always loved the cool air filtering through the open Windows the steady hum of the tires and the way everything seemed to slow down made it all feel
so peaceful my girlfriend Natalie was less enthusiastic but she indulged me on this particular night we were winding down a dirt road that cut through the dense Woods near her family's Farmhouse it was late nearly midnight and the road was empty we hadn't seen another car for Miles the moon was a pale sliver in the sky barely visible through the thick canopy of trees that loomed over us the only light came from from the headlights carving a path ahead why do you always insist on these creepy back roads Natalie asked her voice breaking the silence
she was leaning back in her seat arms crossed over her chest her expression half amused half annoyed because they peaceful I replied glancing at her with a grin and it's not creepy it's it's just quiet it's creepy she said but there was a playful tone in her voice like something out of a horror movie I laughed but I couldn't deny there was a certain eeriness to the place the trees were so thick the darkness so complete it felt like we were driving through a tunnel the road was narrow barely wide enough for one car and
the underbrush on either side seemed to close in on us as if the forest were trying to swallow us whole as we drove the road twisted and turned the gravel crunching under the tires the headlights swept across the trees casting Long Shadows that danced and flickered in the corner corners of my vision every now and then I'd catch a glimpse of something just a shadow I told myself but it was enough to make me grip the steering wheel a little tighter Natalie shifted in her seat reaching over to turn down the radio the music had
been playing softly in the background and but now it felt out of place too cheerful for the oppressive Darkness surrounding us let's just get to the cabin she said her voice quieter now as if she didn't want to disturb the Stillness I nodded Ed focusing on the road ahead we were about 20 minutes away from The Farmhouse a cozy little place Natalie's family had owned for years we'd spent many weekends there hiking fishing just getting away from it all but the road to The Farmhouse was always the worst part long winding and completely isolated we
continued driving in Silence the only sound the rumble of the truck's engine and the crunch of gravel under the tires the road seemed to stretch on forever the trees growing denser the darkness deeper I could feel the tension building in the air a quiet unease that settled over us like a heavy blanket and then out of nowhere the truck's headlights caught something on the side of the road it was a man at first uh I thought it was just a tree or a large Bush but as we got closer I realized it was a man
standing perfectly still at the edge of the road just beyond the reach of the headlights he was wearing a dark jacket the hood pulled up over his head and he was standing so still I almost didn't believe he was real did you see that Natalie whispered her voice barely audible yeah I said my heart starting to race I saw him I slowed the truck to a crawl and my eyes locked on the figure in the darkness as we drew nearer the man didn't move he just stood there watching us his face hidden in the shadows
a shiver ran down my spine something about the way he stood there so still So Silent made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end there was something wrong about him something that made me want to slam on the gas and get the hell out of there but instead I did something stupid I rolled down the window hey I called out my voice shaky are you okay for a moment there was no response the man just stood there his back to us and then slowly he turned his head towards us I couldn't
see his eyes but I could feel them on me cold and empty let's go Natalie said her voice trembling please let's just go I hesitated for a moment longer something compelling me to stay to see what this man wanted but the look on Natalie's face the fear in her eyes snapped me out of it I nodded rolling up the window and pressing down on the gas the truck lurched forward the headlights sweeping past the man as we sped down the road I glanced in the rearview mirror half expecting to see him standing in the middle
of the road watching us leave but he was gone we drove in silence for a few minutes the tension between us thick enough to cut with a knife my hands were shaking my mind racing with a thousand questions who was that man what was he doing out here in the middle of nowhere so late at night and more importantly where did he go I don't like this Natalie said breaking the silence something's not right that guy he didn't feel normal I know I said trying to keep my voice steady but he's gone now we're almost
at The Farmhouse we'll be fine but even as I said it I didn't believe it the road seemed to stretch on forever the trees pressing in on us from all sides the darkness was so complete it felt like we were the only two people left in the world the only light came from the truck's headlights carving a path through the night and then just as I was starting to relax something caught my eye a flash of movement in the trees did you see that I asked my voice tight see what Natalie replied her eyes wide
with fear I I don't know I said my heart pounding in my chest something in the trees I think it was that guy natal's hand tightened on the armrest are you sure no I admitted but we're not stopping to find out we drove faster the truck bouncing over the rough road the trees blurred past the darkness growing thicker more oppressive I kept my eyes on the road but I couldn't shake the feeling that we were being followed that the man was out there somewhere watching us every now and then I'd catch a glimpse of something
a shadow a flash of movement but when I looked there was nothing there it was like the woods were playing tricks on me distorting reality making me see things that weren't there but deep down I knew it wasn't just my imagination there was something out there something that shouldn't be did you hear that Natalie asked suddenly her voice barely a whisper I strained my ears listening at first there was nothing but the sound of of the engine and the wind rushing past the Windows but then I heard it a faint rustling like something moving through
the underbrush my grip tightened on the steering wheel my heart racing I glanced at Natalie and the look on her face told me she heard it too don't stop she whispered just keep driving I nodded pressing down on the gas but no matter how fast we went the sound seemed to follow us growing louder closer and then out of nowhere something darted across the road I swerved narrowly missing whatever it was my heart leaping into my throat I glanced in the rearview mirror expecting to see the man standing in the road but there was nothing
just darkness let's just get to The Farmhouse Natalie said her voice trembling we'll be safe there I didn't argue I just kept driving the truck roaring down the narrow road The Farmhouse wasn't far now just a few more minutes and we'd be safe but the fear gnawed at me a cold heavy weight in the pit of my stomach we pulled into the driveway The farmh house's porch light a welcome sight in the darkness I parked the truck but neither of us moved we just sat there the engine idling the silence pressing in around us do
you think he's still out there Natalie asked her voice barely above a whisper I don't know I admitted but we're not going to find out we hurried inside locking the door behind us the house was warm cozy but I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong that we weren't alone we spent the rest of the night huddled together on the couch listening to the wind howling outside every Creek every rustle made my heart race convinced that the man from the woods was out there watching waiting but morning came and the sun rose and the
fear slowly ebbed away we never saw the man again but the memory of that night stayed with us and even now whenever I drive that road I can't help but glance into the woods half expecting to see him standing there watching me but he's never there if these stories sent shivers down your spine don't forget to hit that like button and share with someone who loves a good scare make sure you're subscribed with notifications on so you never miss out on our next chilling tale got your own creepy story drop it in the comments we
