Pic related. When I was a kid I was walking with my mom along the road just down the street by a treeline and tied to one of the trees by it's neck was a baby doll.

Very unnerving.

We never found who did it or why.

Years later I was out with my mom again in another part of the woods and she swore she saw something that looked humanoid and albino, like all white. It scared her enough that she wanted to leave right then.

Still think about both of these from time to time.

    The trail out behind my parents house wasn't really /x/ material but the mixture of fields, woods, and raised levees meant that you could see just about everything from some spots. It's really eerie looking out into a clear winter night and seeing the bobbing of flashlights a mile away, only for them to turn off all at once. I liked to take late night walks out there when I was a kid, preferring to do away with a flashlight to enjoy the glow of the moon. One night a group of men in a pair of trucks drove up the old dirt road by the trail where they got out and talked or argued with each other. I couldn't make out what they were saying but I remember them leaving very quickly. I think they might have seen me and bolted. I ran home after they left. Didn't like that one bit.

    Animal Death

    Not that long ago on a crisp November evening I found a neat little pile of guts (with a heart stacked on top) next to another neat little pile of guts (without a heart stacked on top). It took a minute to register what I was even looking at, then I freaked out a little, then I remembered it was deer season and someone must have done a field dressing. You're not supposed to hunt in that place so it was kinda neat to see evidence of poaching.
