PS......just wanted to say thats looks can be deceiving....may be beautiful here but I revealed to people on the forum sometime ago>>>>>>>my neighbor in the back has a LION!!!!! When we use to hike thru that forest daily, I asked my friend....what do we do if the lion jumps over its fence.......she said don't worry all the neighbors pitch in to help & we keep the trees cut, plus some engineer my neighbor works with was involved in putting up this womans fence.....cost>>$25,000.00
Still I seem to be the only person around here that thinks the lion can still get out so she added to our conversation......."If he gets out & we run into him on our hike......its simple, just bend over & kiss your A** good bye!"
Hiya Muffy, I am just not sure how to say this........ Everyone here on your contest thread has enjoyed your story and your teaser pic's. But for me I have found the story and pictures thus far to be fantastic! I am looking forward to seeing and reading "The rest of the story" Good Luck Muffy!
I had to really gather my courage to go back to that place after the big front gates of the cemetery were closed. It was scary enough this morning with employees running around.
There is a certain eeriness that always comes along with places like that & it seems like every little rustle of the trees makes you jump.
I had a hard time finding the deserted road in the woods & finally figured out why....something was missing but still it had not dawned on me what it was. Just visiting this place for the 1st time this morning I surely was not yet familiar with its many old landmarks, so my exact recollections of what was where were fuzzy at best.
As I finally started to recognize a somewhat familiar area, it all came together when I started down that narrow dirt road. You drove for at least 2 miles before coming into a clearing on a hill where the old oak tree stood. This morning I could not get in there because of all the cemetery employees running around in their small golf carts working. I surely would have been seen.
I stopped my truck & followed the instructions of my friends slowly entering the dark foot trail that made its way into a deep dark forest. By now I had a knot in my stomach which was about to turn into full blown terror as I continued down the trail.
Overgrowth of heavy vines seemed to encase the trail & I almost felt like I was being swallowed up by something. Finally I saw some light & a clearing was in view. As I exited what seemed like a cave made of vines I took a deep breath only to stop dead in my tracks!
As I starred, thinking I was seeing things, you guys know how I am always complaining about these new glasses I got, I could see ...."IT". "IT" was definately not there this morning & that I am sure of. Yes....yes, no doubt in my mind......"IT" was not like this....this morning!
There under the huge oak tree was the tombstone that I saw on the other side of the pond near the highway. There is no way it could be the same one but if I went back to check, I'd have to venture thru that dark path & drive way back over to the highway. By that time I'd get back over here & it would be dark. SO slowly I made my way across the clearing toward the tree.
I was in pure horror, shaking like crazy for there under the tree was the gravemarker. I knew it was the same one as soon as I got close to it. This morning I stood right on top of it when I took the picture. And what scared me more was sticking out of the ground in front of it was a large rusty old meat cleaver.
(See 1st- 2 pictures below)
The next minute I heard a clatter like someone banging large sticks together in successions of three. The sound seemed to be coming from all around me but at an indeterminable distance. I felt like they were very nearby but I saw no one. Being the ghost hunter that I am I started to walk from the oak tree across the clearing in the opposite direction.......and thats when I saw HIM!!!!! Just as clear as day.
I snapped a quick photo & I never ran so fast in my life. We have talked about me being afraid of Zombies that can run cause I can't run so fast anymore.
It was HIM....I know it was. (See 3rd Photo below) People had said it was close to that tombstone moving again & it had done just that on the very day I decided to go check this out. The head & body seem to have reunited. It was getting dark now & I was terrified half out of my mind.
When I got home I was disappointed in myself that I did not try to follow him....but I literally froze in my footsteps when I saw him. I called a couple of friends of mine to just tell them the tombstone moved. Instead of calling the police we have decided to go out there tonight to check things out. I did not tell them I saw "HIM" & have a photo of him. I am curious to go back out there but no way am I going alone!
So we decided we are going over there today to look around & have plans to return at dusk when the cemetery closes this evening........I'll let you know what we find!
Beautiful.....
where?
