Hey /x/, can we get another trucker story thread going? they

bumpin for truckers

>>15858335
Bumping.
Didn't know this was a thing.
Sounds very interesting.
Always figured truckers would have some pretty interesting / spooky stories, driving across the country at all hours of the night.

Bump. I think janitors and other night-time workers should also be invited to post - they probably have some great stories too.

Anyone have the pilliga scrub link? Pretty sure that guy was a truck driver

>>15858730

What does that .gif mean by "there is nothing here today"?

Humpdebump

Does anyone have that story about the guy seeing something on the road and it was a wind up toy ans then there was something behind him at his car?

Id really like to read that one again

I used to live just down the road from a truckstop and many a Sunday I spent at their breakfast buffet. Given that seating was sparse, I sometimes shared a table with a trucker or two. The odd stories I heard from them seemed to revolve around the phenomenon that something was pacing their trucks while the they were on the highway.

The first story came out of Nevada. The trucker was outside of Las Vegas when some flying gizmo, not much larger than a car, began paralleling him on the highway. Every few seconds, it would emit a bright, strobe-like flash that would illuminate the desert for a considerable distance. It was with him for about a minute and then lifted up and vanished. The trucker wasn't a UFO guy. He seemed pretty sure that he'd run into some kind of Air Force recon drone. This event supposedly happened in the 80s. (see next)

(next)

A couple of truckers also mentioned an effect where it seemed as if something was moving on the ground, paralleling their trucks, but just out of clear sight. Given that they were moving at the highway speed limit (or higher) and whatever was pacing them wasn't on the road, that seems unlikely. One guy mentioned a dog-like shape but admitted that he couldn't be sure -- it was late and he'd been on the road for some time. The other one said he was pretty sure that a vehicle behind him on the road had a mis-aligned headlight that was lighting up the area of to one side and giving an illusion of something keeping to one side of his truck.

I'm not a trucker, but I've seen the "something off to one side of my vehicle" effect. It was on a highway between my smallish hometown and the local city. It seemed to be moving through a series of corn fields at about the same speed as my car (50-60 mph), was roughly man-sized in size (I make no claim as to shape), and was about thirty feet to my right. The next day, I checked to see if there had been any damage to the corn fields in question, which you'd expect if something was moving at that speed through foiliage. However, I couldn't find anything. The misaligned headlight idea is out since there was nobody behind me on the road. However, there was a full moon and perhaps a reflection off my windshield might have been responsible.

On mobile and awful at greentexting, but I saw something weird out in the country in central Illinois last night. I was feeling down so I drove and took random turns until I was lost. Feeling suicidal, I got out of my car and contemplated wandering off into the snow storm to die of exposure. As I Sat on the hood, some creature like what you described ran by. My headlights were still on (auto lights stay on for a minute or two), and I got a decent look. It was almost a very, very dark purple color-somehow seemed blacker than black.

>>15862326
Tldr I think I saw a different colored version of what you did. It scurried away quickly.

>>15862276
>>15862326
>>15862331

>>15862347
Snowstorm anon here. How do we go about proving/identifying it? I have no clue where I was when I saw it,and I don't think I was in a good enough emotional state to be a solid witness. I mean, I was south of I-80 and within 30 miles of Starved Rock State Park. Where was the first dude at? Nearby? That would help.

>>15862361
First dude here.
Yeah I was at about the same place as you. About 15 minutes between both Princeton and Tiskilwa. Near Rt. 26

>she says "I'm his daughter" and motions to the trucker's house
>I welcome her to our town, my friend and I decide not to go into the forest for whatever reason
>about a week later
>my mom bakes some muffins for the new family in town
>she's trying to be nice and welcoming since so many people were mad at the trucker due to his noise/destruction of the forest
>asks me to deliver them

>"I don't have a daughter"
>"Oh, sorry... Must have been someone else"

I know every person in that town and the girl clearly said she lived in the Trucker's house

>>15862373
congratulations, you just exposed the fact that the trucker had his side chick over while his wife wasn't in town.
way to be a bro and fuck the man's game up.

Recently saw seven or some shit channel like that had a new series about some famous outback killer. Any Aussie cunts got info or stories about outback killers?

>>15862371
Huh. Never figured there would be an /x/phile living near here. I was somewhere west of Ottawa. Ended up finding my way home by headed north looking for 80 (or at least a frontage road to hop on) and driving straight into Utica. Looks like the creature is south of the interstate but north of the river.

>>15862393
I feel the need to hunt for it now.

>>15862385

She was like 14... (I was a teenager at the time too btw).

I always wondered if she was a prostitute or runaway he picked up, but that would be pretty weird because his wife is the type to never leave home (so why would he risk bringing the girl there and getting caught) and that town is in the middle of nowhere (so why would the girl want to go there in the first place)

On top of that, she was smoking alone in the forest beside his truck at night

Maybe I'm a pussy but I would be on the porch with a light on

>>15862397
I wanted to say hunt earlier, but was worried you might be the type that wants to preserve unknown species. Nice to know we're both red neck enough to hunt. I played around on Google maps and found out I was actually along the edge of the new sand mine there. I wonder if we saw the same creature or if there are multiple.

>>15862397
why do we have to kill everything that we find rare?
>"oh fuck bro look! it's the last wooly mammoth! they've been extinct for over 10,000 years! It probably "survived by living in isolation all alone for this whole time, I'm sure it's the last of its kind! man this is amazing"
>"yea bro, fuck.. and all along we thought we'd never see another one alive... Let's kill it and stuff it! I can put that shit in my back yard!"
>BLAM blam BLAM blam " take that Isis"blam blam kapow

stupid Americans.

>>15862418
Rare is dangerous. It might attack someone's pets. I know plenty of people who keep chickens. 1 creature could slaughter a whole coop.

>>15862418
Why would you hunt and kill the last known Wooly Mammoth? It's already a proven species that needs no extra documentation.

An unknown species however, kill it, study it, prove it.

Like bigfoot. Shoot that motherfucker and take it back for the world to see.

Did you know that when European explorers came back from Africa, they told stories of giant, hairy man like creatures? Nobody believed them until someone shot one and dragged its ass back to Europe.
BAM! Gorillas.

>>15862415
It's one thing to preserve unknown species, and another thing entirely to prove it's existence. AFTER it's proven, sure, preserve it. Prove it first though.

>>15862440
if you knew you were the last human alive, and one day a higher being came across you, would want to them to help you find/create a mate out of your blood to reproduce in order for your species to survive, or would you rather get shot and killed with no questions asked, just to prove that "look, humans did exist, here's a fresh one!" ?

>>15862456
Well that's entirely fucking different don't you think?

If I pointed a gun at ANY animal, like a squirrel, and there are HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF SQUIRRELS, and it looked and me and said, "Wait, don't shoot!" You bet your ass I would't shoot it.

So back to you're qustion:
>if you knew you were the last human alive, and one day a higher being came across you, would want to them to help you find/create a mate out of your blood to reproduce in order for your species to survive, or would you rather get shot and killed with no questions asked, just to prove that "look, humans did exist, here's a fresh one!" ?

The first one. Because you'd be a jack-ass not to try, and secondly, if this higher form of being thought I was the last human alive, AND had technology to be able to clone a mate for me to start "repopulating" (AKA fucking), I doubt I would even have to ask.

if a kid is kicking and screaming, saying that she wants her dad, yelling "dont let them take me", she is definitely there against her own will and is probably getting raped. good shit on returning to the rapist you idiot, kids are honest af, they wouldnt lie about shit like that specially at her age.

It was her mother I couldn't do shit. Detain a kid from its own parents? Can you do that? Maybe I'm just retarded, I dunno. I just thought the kid was being an annoying kid. Then again she was really dirty, I don't know.

So, long story short, the mother is charged with child endangerment (bringing the daughter around with this scumbag, not bathing her, etc.) and daddy wins the custody battle and she now lives with him. Guy they arrested had a warrant out for possession and distribution of narcotics. Kid was luckily not sexually abused. Just dirty and malnourished. That was a couple years ago, so I assume she's ok now.

Nothing else creepy ever really happened here. A few nudity/sex stories but that's it. Sorry if it sucked.

Okay, after doing a little more image searching, I came across the closest thing that resembles what I saw. The Dik-Dik (hehe).
The only issue is that it lives in the bushlands of eastern and southern Africa.

So now I'm just curious.

Yes, I know it looks like a deer, but the only deer that are around here are whitetailed. And as fawns, are covered in white spots that what I saw didn't have. Also, when Whitetail deer run, they run with their tails up, exposing the white fur underneath. And as I already said, what I saw didn't have a tail. Mush like the dik-dik (hehe)

What the fuck was it? I searched endlessly. I live in MA so it wasn't a wolverine. Wolverines don't have arched backs anyway. I thought it might be a fisher cat at first, but when I looked those up they're like big weasels, and not nearly 3 feet tall. And why the flying fuck was it scratching at the street?

>>15862593
kek these stories suck, by comparison to the really good ones anyway

I have 1 or 2 "paranormal" stories that aren't really thread-related and one other semi-worth-telling hotel story that would be completely inappropriate to post.

>>15862599

One time I saw a skunk that I swear was bigger than my dog (a fairly big lab)

idk what kind of roid berries it was eating but this thing was massive

>>15862602

tell them all

after the inappropriate hotel story, tell me if any ghost truckers have ever stayed in the hotel so it's on topic

>>15862609
I'm at the hotel now but my shift is almost over, I'll have enough time for one more. Hotel story or a "spoop" story.

I'm more than willing to bet you're right. Here is how it probably went down.

>Dude was on the road
>she has the thumb up
>He figures he'd pick her up because she might give him road head.
>"Ass Gas or Grass sweetie"
>She reluctantly agrees to ass on account of no weed or money

Now the reason why she was there? Maybe she talked him into letting her sleep in the cab since they're actually pretty comfy for sleeping. His wife probably had no reason to be in the truck, why not get a few more blowjobs on his next routes? and she needs to get where he's going. Sounded like a perfect plan until you showed up haha

>>15862553

Glad it turned out okay, but next time you might want to call the cops/your boss first, especially since they didn't even mention having a kid with them and that whole situation sounded sketchy as fuck.

You do know that Adam and Eve stuff won't work for real, right? Unless you want the entire species to be inbred as fuck, you need several mating pairs, not just one.

But I agree that capturing a cryptid alive would be infinitely more valuable and educational than killing it outright.

>>15862599
My friend once hit a raccoon that she swears was bigger than a small dog. It fucked up her car pretty bad, too. I think animals that live closer to cities have been getting bigger than normal over the years. Maybe it's from eating our garbage, maybe it's genetic mutation, who knows, but nature is weird like that.

This is like the umpteenth story I've read on /x/ where someone is walking out late at night and listening to music. Aren't people aware what a stupid idea this is? Even if there are no monsters or murderers trying to sneak up on you, there are other things you might need to listen for, like a car horn.

I'm not going to give you a really bad time about it, it just astounds me sometimes how many people seem to have no common sense or survival instinct. Maybe I'm different because I'm an overly-cautious person. Anyway, I hope your story will serve as a warning to you and others who read it.

As a regular driver, I agree. There are lots of stupid jogging fuckheads and cyclists during the night that wish to be hit and most of them don't respond to the horn, what the fuck is wrong with these people.

Oh fer Chr*issakes, you saw a muntjac deer. They're increasingly popular in the USA as exotic pets, a bit like Vietnamese pot bellied pigs or arctic foxes are becoming more popular. Once muntjac escape from captive stock into the wild, they breed like rabbits. WHOOP DE DOOP you saw a spoopy tiny deer, it must have been really terrifying.

If this thread is still alive later tonite and I get the chance I'll post some stories. I posted one about a week or so ago. it's kind of difficult to pinpoint stories in my memory, I find it best to have something "toggle" a memory by listening (reading in this case) to stories that may remind me of instances .... not sure if that makes any sense.

I'm not saying this is what it was, just, the closest thing I can think of for what it looked liked. And you're right. The legs if the Dik Dik (hehe) are longer than what I saw. Either that or the way it's legs were bent while running made them look shorter

>>15862950
I'm like, 85% positive it was a bear. I lived out on the Outer Banks and driving back to the mainland we've seen quite a few black bears.
They're also known to be able stand and walk/run on two legs.
Can you describe the way it ran? Was it Human like where it's knees bent and arms swayed or was it stiff and rigged, like a waddle?

Gonna have to agree with this guy, the only animal this could have been is a bear, I can't think of anything else that big able to stand on two legs.
Unless it was some guy on stilts in a furry costume that somehow managed to sit down and stand up without removing the stilts.

This isn't exactly about trucking/late night stuff but something creepy that happened to me.

That shit looked really sick like a werewolf or a really malnourished and hairy hobo.

While i was sewing the driver he told me about this thing´s circle shaped "mouth" and disgustingly human eyes.

The claw marks were 4 and they were really spread apart , different from a cat slash like if they had been fingernails instead of claws.

To the day i still dont believe in this entire "chupacabra" bullshit

The infinite mirror effect was unusually unsettling. I could almost feel like something was trapped, forever reflecting itself. It filled me with dread.

This is one I heard from a trucker a long time ago, from his perspective

>Have to make a delivery of a bunch of random things to a grocery store, delivery scheduled for 10PM
>Get there, back truck up to docking bay and leave the kids to do their thing while I go grab a coffee
>Some of these kids are a little sketchy but whatever, they tell me they're done so I check to make sure the trailer's door is securely closed and get back in to the truck to leave
>As I'm driving down the road something about the truck doesn't feel right
>Eventually hit a stop and hear something hit the front of the trailer
>Begin thinking one of these kids decided to hide in the truck to try to jump me before i ended up just leaving
>Pull truck over at a rest stop, grab flashlight and knife and go to back of trailer
>Slowly open it up and stand back before looking inside just in case
>Dark can't see too well but definitely saw something move in the back of the trailer, shine flashlight inside
>The kids left the pump cart in the trailer so it had been banging around and an entire crate of Mr. Christie cookies
>Take the truck around to my house and drop the cookies and pump cart off before taking the truck back to the offices
>Life time supply of cookies for free that I'll never get in shit for taking because the delivery was signed for

Definitely wasn't a bear. I've seen bears stand and run and stuff before, both IRL and videos. For lack of a better description, it ran like Forest Gump did at first - kind of like a stiff legged waddle off the road, and then a full sprint with knees bent up the hill.

How small is small town?

I always hear people say it and don't know if I live in a small town, like 8k people

And its definatly not the place where you would say everybody knows everybody

And also when you live in a really small town how hard is it to get skirt?

Anything under 5k is a small town in my book. Up to 20k is more like small city.

>>15867121
Mine is a bit shy of 20k. People in Chicago and St. Louis think it is tiny, but I think small town is less than 1k. Knowing everybody is probably 200 or less.

We haven't had too many amazing ones that have been caught/discovered

I'd really love to hear more Aboriginal stories of spirits pretending to loved ones/ski walker type things, they have such an amazing attitude towards the land which I guess comes with being the oldest living civilisation on the planet - they know some shit.

After high school I moved to live in my parent's summer home on an island near Michigan's upper peninsula. Many of the people who live there believe some pretty crazy shit, but I've had a few experiences that creeped me out.

1:
>work at local bar on the island
> closing up after slow night, around 2am
> look down the road and see a light coming from the road to the ferry dock
> ferry is closed at this time so there shouldn't be anyone going across
> Think nothing of it and drive away
>look in my mirrors and the light is now level with my car (bar is on a huge hill overlooking the road to the ferry dock)
> suddenly there's a bright flash and my car is being lit up from above
> light goes out after a minute, and whatever it was flies past me
> It's flat black, No larger than a car, and it was flying directly above the road below the treeline.
> pulls up and turns and I never saw it again

2:
>walking in the woods
> I've been feeling uneasy ever sense I lost sight of my house, everything seems too still
> brought my shotgun with me because there's wolves on the island
> see a awkwardly stumbling through the woods, it looks hurt and there's blood everywhere.
>I feel bad for the deer and decide to put it out of it's misery
> as I walk closer, it turns and looks at me
> I froze as it made eye contact with me, but it's eyes were wrong. They always look black but these seemed like light just stopped where it's eyes were
> It's head cocked sideways a bit as it stood up on its hind legs and let out a shriek like a little girl
> turn and bolt, shooting wildly in fear
> make it back to my house and turn around and >I can't see the thing's body anymore, just it's eyes

I don't leave the house without a gun anymore, my family thinks I'm crazy

>>15869263
What the fuck were you talking about in your second story? I could not understand it at all. Was the creature a deer that turned man,bear,pig? or you felt bad for the deer and you stumbled upon some other creature? Also, did you see an awkwardly stumbling deer?
Shit, did you even proof read your damn post. Rhetorical , because i know you didn't

>>15869307
Clearly he saw a deer that stood up on its hind legs and squealed like a little girl Now looking back on it he can only remember the deer's eyes.

There is a reason why very few railroaders believe in ghosts. I'll tell you a couple of stories;

We called it in, but there was no evidence of intrusion or anything.

Both of us swear up and down that we saw SD-40-2's in light orange (Chessie System colors) from a distance on the downgrade.

It's funny though, I haven't heard much actual stories from guys at CSX. Norfolk Southern on the other hand...

> One guy was attacked in his dream on a nightly basis by the red-eyed, disfigured sprite of a guy who committed suicide just outside of a tunnel

> Another guy stated that he saw a black mist, and smelled sulfur when he passed an abandoned farm with a odd barn on it. We later found out that the barn housed partially-eaten human remains...

> Another guy passed the site of an indian burial ground while on the extra board working a 3am job. Shortly after, he found a charred bird feather in the toilet. He requested to never work at night ever again.

Having said that, Western Roads tend to have even more fun...

>>15869629
>There is a reason why very few railroaders believe in ghosts.

Typo? You mean don't believe in ghosts? Or that very many believe in ghosts? Doesn't make sense to say that then follow up with spoopy stories, but maybe it's just late for me.

>>15869629
Sorry, I meant don't. I have other stories to share if I show back up again tomorrow. Not just paranormal, but like one time...

> Be 50 year old white coworker (obviously not me... I'm in my 20's) working a night-switching job near Philly
> notice a couple of shadows around you
> just try to get work done as quickly as possible
> be approached by neatly dressed Hispanic guy who is obviously hiding tattoos with his clothing
> be told "I came up on a train, so I like them. I think you could do a much better job moving cars around here if you came back another time."
> guy has the handle of a gun sticking out of the top of his dress slacks
> smells like tequlia

Keep in mind this particular guy is known for never making anything up (as are most railroaders.) Apparently they finished the switch job in record speed, and saw about 20 guys watching them from various buildings (and a couple following them down the tracks) as they pulled away from their switching and onto the main.

When they went to pick up the cars, they were covered in MS-13 grafitti.

I am a medic with the airmobile brigade of the Netherlands. I make good money and decided to try and make my dreams of flying come true, because i initially tried out for helicopter pilot. I joined an aeroclub stationed at an old naval airfield. One day:

>be the last one to leave the hangar
>unplug all devices so they don't cause an electrical fire (planes inside hangar are expensive as shit, 100k +)
>later at night i remember not unplugging the waterboiler (as everything the aeroclub owns besides the planes, it's old and does not switch off automatically)
>I was staying with my parents for the weekend and decide to do the drive back to the airfield in one go with driving back home.
>I drive the car 5 km around the runway (we never EVER enter the runway if we don't absolutely have to).
>There are no lights nearby because the airfield is no longer in use.
>Complete darkness.
>Beautiful stars.
>The aeroclubs are the only users and the airfield is closed at night.
>I realize i'm completely by myself and there is not another person around for at least 2 Km.
>As i lock up the hanger after unplugging the waterboiler i heard moaning in grass on the runway side.
>I scream "Hello? Anyone out there"
>I hear a faint moans like someone is in pain "ahh, help me"

This history of that place is staggering. It has been a military base since roman times. It was where the Germans first invaded my country and where rookie kids with hardly any training trying had to fend of the German invasion, armed only with repeaters. They were slaughtered in minutes.

Did i dream? Nope. I got a fine for prankcalling the emergency services on my cellphone in the mail. I just paid the damn fine.

mfw they are building houses there now. i wish them sleepless nights for defiling my beloved airfield with their shitty housingproject.

>fucking NOPE every time i on that airfield after sunset.

I used to work night shift with my dad at a large movie theater. Around the time the 1st Paranormal Activity was playing, shit got weird. We'd hear thumps on the roof, and the men's room had this horrible vibe in it, like you were being watched. It didn't help that there was a huge hole in the wall waiting for repair. Whatever watched lived there. After awhile I refused to clean the men's room.
My dad and I suspected that the movie, like other infamous horror films, had attracted some kind of energy, but we'd also heard rumors that when they were building the cinema they'd found human skeletons, and instead of taking care of it properly, just threw them in a dumpster. I don't know how true that is, but something was off there, definitely.

> hear sticks breaking out in the bushes nearby
> probably just a possum or some shit
> a dirty man dressed in rags comes out of the bushes, walks through the middle of the camp, not looking at anyone and continues into the trees on the other side

Everyone was silent while this happened but shit hit the fan afterwards. Most girls crying, screaming etc while the guys tried to look ok. I'm guessing this was a practical joke by the outdoor ed teacher as no police were called. however if this was the case he hadnt let the other teachers know, because after hearing about it they were also pretty shaken.

Deer can be fucking creepy. I've lived in the U.P. since I was a child and I can tell you for certain that the deer up here are fucked up.
My father always told me a story where he was in a deer blind up in a tree. He saw three deer in the distance on a hill. They all stood up and started to awkwardly walk in circles making screeching noises. It freaked him out, he wanted to leave but also didn't want them to see him. Your story just reminded me of that.

Lookup "The Wendigo" by Algernon Blackwood. You can find the full book online and read it in a few hours. It's about a group that goes hunting in the wilderness and one of their party gets spirited away.

>>15867745

Probably the most interesting story here. Could have been some spirit who died from someone speeding and now convinces other drivers to stop speeding by getting in their way and making them see what could happen.

It's expected in areas where we've driven out all of their natural predators, now nothing's stopping them from running rampant and destroying the ecosystem. There was a documentary about how they reintroduced wolves into Yellowstone because the ecosystem was on decline, and it completely rebalanced it.

Of course the "environmentalists" won't listen to the idea that hunting or reintroducing predators in order to keep the deer population at a sustainable level, interesting that their views are contributing to the destruction of the ecosystems they are trying to protect. But I digress. Sorry to rant.

My theory is that a high amount of hydrocarbons, regardless of what their origination is, will be a magnet for supernatural forces. When I spent two days in Grafton, there was just something unnerving about the place I can't put my finger on. Usually things like that don't bother me, since I do a lot of urban exploration photography on my own time.

I'll give you another true tidbit. I don't come from a railroader family, but I am one and my Great-Great Grandfater was one for the Pensylvania Railroad. Thing is, he was killed in a 1928 NJ accident. I've had a love of trains since birth, even though no one else in my family cares one way or another for them.

You know what else? We share the exact same name, down to the middle initial. I didn't know any of this, until I came across a book a few years ago called "the Motorman and Conductor."

Hey everyone. Large Marge sent me.

There's a small area in my city (Manchester, England) right by the cathedral known as the Hanging Ditch. You wouldn't know it now but back in the days of public excecutions it was apparently the site of the pits where they dumped the bodies of condemned men for centuries.

Back in the 90s the IRA bombed the city centre (this thing was huge, around 3000lb, actually the largest bomb detonated on British soil since WWII) and during the reconstruction they decided to relocate and repair a couple of late medieval/early renaissance period pubs.

The story goes that during the digging of the foundations of these pubs they just kept finding bodies and having to halt excavation. By the fifth of sixth skeleton the coroner's office just decided "fuck it, none of it's modern" and they just pushed anything they found into the walls of the pits before pouring the concrete.

Would love to get down there one day. There's a pretty extensive network of what were once waterfront warehouses close by too under the arched brick supports of the surrounding bridges and squares. They were bricked up and used as a shelter during the war but it's been sealed for decades. I've seen photos of the inside but urbex guys seem to keep the entrance pretty close to their chests.

Sometimes they do other things

Sounds like a big feral pig. They're really common in certain rural areas but I haven't seen them on my dives down to Dekalb or my bike rides to Starved Rock so I'm guessing you're further south anyway.

I used to drive 18-wheelers cross country, USA. Here are a few strange things I saw out on the roads in the middle of the night.

One time driving south on 35 through Texas I saw a flock of birds taking off from a horizon of trees. The sun was setting behind them so all I could make out were hundreds of these bird silhouettes lifting off into the sky. As I'm watching them fly away, coming from behind them appears a gigantic shadow in the shape of a bird, much much bigger than the flock of regular birds before it. I stretched my arm out to it and spread the fingers of my hand, and even at a distance just over the horizon, this thing's wingspan was longer than from the tip of my thumb to the tip of my pinky. Whatever it was, it was huge.

Another time I was driving through Louisiana at night in a heavy rain storm. There was no one on the road with me and no streetlights, so all I could see was the light from my headlights cutting through the rain maybe twenty-five/thirty feet ahead of the truck. Even though there were no other cars around, and big trucks are supposed to stay to the right here, I got a bad feeling that I NEEDED to get in the left lane. It was a sensation of deep, painful dread telling me to change lanes immediately. I trusted it and got over, kind of in a driver's routine daze of unconscious reaction. Maybe five seconds after I got in the other lane, I saw an alligator stretched out across the width of the lane I had just left. If I had hit it I would have lost control of the truck and ended up in a ditch on the side of the road, probably dead. The weirdest part, though... As I was processing the alligator, and the strange dread that had made me narrowly avoid death, and as these thoughts are going though my head about how lucky I was, suddenly I see sitting on the side of the road a person, cross-legged, naked, staring out sitting alone in the pouring rain at night. This person or whatever it was was BRIGHT PINK, and it had no facial features.

You don't think it'd get skinny surviving in the winter? I bet it even had mange or a ton of ticks.

Want to elaborate? Personally want to get my spoop on. Also, Iowafag here.

The scariest thing I ever saw, and this is a true story...

I was driving through the desert of California. It was around 3am. I was quietly singing to myself to alleviate the boredom, since I had been driving maybe nine hours straight on about 4 hours sleep the day before. You could say I was mentally fatigued, or that I was hallucinating, but the vividness of the thing I saw was too real for me to discount as a trick of the mind. When you're driving along a long stretch of dark desert highway at night, all you can see are the stars and the road your headlights reach out to; everything else is blackness. That night as I was out there all alone, I swear I saw something I cannot explain that frightens me to this day.

At first, I noticed what looked like reflections of light quickly flashing beside me out in the darkness - maybe the running lights on the side of the trailer bouncing off a far-away road sign, or some white painted building long abandoned briefly lighting up in the edge of my headlights. Over time the flashes of light became too frequent for me to ignore, and I curiously peered out the window into the night to see what was going on. At first it looked like a mirror or distorted glass was way out in the distance, sending back a warped reflection of the lights from my truck speeding past. But as I watched it I realized it wasn't flashing on and off, it was raising and lowering off the ground, because at times it would be very tall, and then other times very short and low to the ground, so I couldn't have noticed it out of the corner of my eye. As I kept watching it, the thing starting getting closer, because at a certain distance I saw my headlights actually begin to reach it and reflect off of it... before it was too far away, so then I realized it was naturally luminescent - a bright white glow. That was also when I realized what it was, an that was when I became terrified.

Ahhhh, the good old forest hermit. Kind of rare to run across one.

Or a junkie out of his mind in a hobo getup. Coats on coats on animal skins.

It acted like a bed sheet on a clothesline that billows in a harsh wind, its edges frantically tearing and beating at the shadows around it. It had the shape of a human, so you can imagine the arms and legs flapping insanely like long white ribbons as it ran through the desert along with me. I think it knew I had seen it, because it moved just to the edge of the road, keeping pace with my truck going 60 mph the entire time, and remained in an upright state. The thing was as tall as my truck or taller, so at least 11 feet tall, bright white with long thin arms and legs that shook and beat at the air and jumped and leaped and flew over the desert sand. I had no reaction but fear, and no idea what I could do, so I just kept driving out of instinct, and eventually after a few thousand feet the thing stopped, shooting back into the blackness behind me, reflecting in my mirror like a kite taken swiftly away by the breeze.

I drove for maybe an hour more, wide-eyed in shock and panic, trying my best to convince myself what I had seen wasn't real. The description of the creature might not seem threatening, but the sight of it, tearing along beside me, whipping around like it did... I couldn't process it, so my mind naturally made me afraid of it. I have no idea what the thing was, if it was trying to make me look at it, or if it even cared I existed. But I'm positive it was real, because when I had almost, almost convinced myself it was imagination, and when I was finally beginning to feel okay with what had happened I saw it again, standing on the edge of the road, leaning or draping itself against a highway road sign, facing me as I passed. The last glimpse of it may have been clouded or altered by my fear, or by my increasing mental fatigue, but I swear I vividly remember the look of this thing as I drove by, like the folds of its thin torso, or the shadowy imperfections in its white luminescence, coming together in the shape of a leering, toothy smile.

>Tell friend about it, big time woods junkie, he nicknames it "Johnny Gobbers" because he's funny like that
>Those woods always had a bad vibe.
>Fast forward ~2 years, driving with gf late one night on a road near where I saw it
>We pull off and make out on the roadside. Suddenly she pulls away and screams at me to drive
>Freaks out and tells me she heard breathing right outside her open window
>Worth a note, there's a big empty lake with no access and a terrible vibe nearby, and there's a remote slavic community in these woods
>Slavic witches summon creatures to guard their woods I suppose

Kind of sort of very of topic but I want to do what you do. I dropped out of college and quit work to help my dad rebuild a house we bought because were losing our current home. But if I need a degree I'd go back to school knowing what I'd want. Any other info on getting "on track" would be appreciated.
