As I Lazily rolled over in bed one Saturday morning, I
noticed that my friend, Luke, who had spent the night with
me, was nowhere to be found. As I leaned back over to
stroll out of bed, a face appeared in the corner of my
bedroom door frame. “What do you want to do today?” Luke
gasped. “I’m really bored”. As I squinted over towards
him trying to adjust my eyes to the light, “Let’s go 4-
wheeling”. With a Heavy grin, giving is that Luke doesn't
have a 4-wheeler of his own; he replied “Sounds good to
me!”
As we dressed in our usual heavy clothing for the
woods, my Mom entered the room. “Where are you guys
going?” “We're just gonna go riding around for a little
while. “Well, you guys need some Breakfast first” Mom
insisted. We quickly Scarfed down our Breakfast and
headed out the door.
As we filled up the ATV’s with Gas, we then took
off into the woods. As we drove along the musky dirt
trail, we noticed that the woods did not seem as lively as
they usually were. It almost seemed awkward in the way
that something had scared them off. As I lead us farther
into the woods, it seemed to get darker with every second,
even though it was noon. And then, suddenly a body in
motion leaped in front of my 4-wheeler, I slammed my
brakes as hard as they would go missing the object by at
most 2 inches. “Are you okay?!” Luke gasped “that was a
close one”. “Yeah, I'm fine, but did you see the size of
that Buck?” I replied. Luke then laughed in descent of
knowing that I was alright.
As we had reached even farther into the woods, the
terrain began to grow very faint. I had never been this
far back before and I didn't have a clue of where I was
going. We then reached this old house that looked like it
had existed for ages. The porch was caved in and the
front doorway had been boarded up. “Come one Jay, let’s
go through it”. “I don't know man, that doesn't even seem
like a house, it just looks like termites holdin’
hands!” “Come on man, it looks fine, let’s go” Luke
replied. I nervously agreed and began walking toward the
old cabin. As we crawled through the window and took a
step on the floor, I was surprised by the sturdiness of
the house. Other than a few creaks, it had a Strong frame
for its age.
As we wandered around the 2 room shack, we glanced
on the walls which was covered with old newspapers, the
old fireplace had falling through what looked like years
ago because of the mildew covering the stone that it was
built out of. As we entered the other room, it contained
a spiral staircase that had been cut off at the bottom,
and all that was left was the top of the stairs.
“I wonder what’s up there” Luke curiously
asked. “I don’t know”. My curiosity had suddenly risen
and I replied “Let’s go see”. I hoisted Luke up to the
stairs that still remained and he climbed up to the talk.
Quickly, after he had reached the top he lent a hand for
me to explore the upstairs also. The muskiness of the one
room upstairs made it hard to breath, it consisted of an
old dusty mattress that looked like had been left behind.
We also noticed a dark hole in the wall that was deep
enough for a person the size of Luke and me to crawl
into. Suddenly, we heard a rumbling of someone walking in
the room beneath us. “What in the hell was that?” Luke
Gasped. “I think someone is here!” We didn’t make a move
wandering what could be lurking downstairs. We then both
looked toward the wall staring at the dark hole. Without
a word, we signaled each other over to the hole. Luke,
first crept into the hole gasping to get breath in the
humid air, and with the terror we faced, it wasn’t helping
at all. I then crawled into the hole discovering a larger
open crawl space. As we sat in there terrified, we began
to hear noises that were unexplainable.
At first we heard
whispers of many people below us, as time grew the voice
became louder and higher pitched. Luke and I began to
panic on whether we would make it out of the cabin alive.
The foot steps came back, as we heard heavy
stomping in what seemed the upstairs in the room beside
us. The whole house began to rumble as if an earthquake
was occurring. We then started screaming in terror of
something capturing us from our crawl space hide out. But,
then the rumbling began fainter and fainter. It became
total silence besides the cracks of the old house. “I
think it left” I gnarled. “Let’s get the hell out of
here!” I crawled out of the dark space first. As I stood
up, I dusted all of the Thick dust off of my clothes. “Oh
my god! Let’s get out of here!” Luke gasped. He shot out
of the hole in the wall and stood up. “What’s wrong?” I
asked. “There is something in that hole. I saw it!” Luke
replied. I was then in complete horror and we both jetted
down the steps, but were distracted by a sudden bang
upstairs. “Who’s there?” I screamed. There was complete
silence. As we glared at the top of the steps we saw a
shadowy figure come into view. It was a humongous framed
body with which looked like it had deformities on its
body. After about 2 seconds, Luke and I raced out the
window and onto our 4-wheelers and took off. I then
looked back at the old cabin to see a dark figure creeping
through the top floor window. For the split-second that I
glanced at the thing, it seemed as his facial expression
was odd of what I expected. It seemed sad and lonely. I
took no time to think about it until I reached home.
“What happened to you guys?” my mom asked in shock
of the dustiness of our clothes. We then told her about
the old house and how we explored it. But, we decided not
to tell her of the happenings of what we thought
was “paranormal activity”, we figured she wouldn’t
understand.
Luke and I have shared with each other to
this day of what he have felt about the stuff that
occurred that Saturday morning. Luke informed me that
when he was alone in that crawl space he felt something
that resembled a human hand touch him.
The conclusion I have come to is that there is
still things on this earth still left for us to discover
and understand. And most importantly, I now believe that
paranormal exists, for good and for evil. I am still
mystified by what Luke and I encountered that day.
