I,like many others have read the Reddit thread about the SAR officers stories. ( found here https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/3ppq81/im_a_search_and_rescue_officer_for_the_us_forest/ ) . I wonder how much of these were actually real, Are the stairs really a thing? Or was the whole thing fictional/fake. He wrote in a very convincing way so I dont know what to think. Either way it was an intresting reading.

I heard that it was mostly real. One of my friends knows a SAR officer, when I asked him about the stairs he acted confused like he had never heard about that before and changed the subject.

But I got confused beacuse on his tumblr he wrote that they were fictional but then i he posted a picture of stairs in the middle of nowhere.
After the 7th entry or so he states he will continue the "story" in book form
Yep fiction, if you wanted to know

That's both intresting how he made so many people belive his stories but also a bit dissapointing with the stairs and that stuff.

Some stories are based on facts that I've read in books
Not sure about the stars at all though but the missing people stories are somewhat factual
People disappear in the woods every now and then. You can read some of David Paulides material if you're interested in all that noise. Here's him discussing disappearances on C2C http://youtu.be/6o2edkA1Ud0

I don't chalk it up to spooky stairs though.
No sleep is pure fiction.

I heard that David got some shit due to that thread since it was factual and he reffered to David

Imagine if your friend asked you if a mysterious giant lolipop ever appeared in the middle of the McDonalds you worked at. You would probably be confused and change the fucking topic.

>Were the SAR stories true?
well, uh
>posted on a subreddit for fiction
>on guy's personal website he admit's he never even did SAR, just had a friend who trained in it for a summer
>stupid subreddit rule that commenters have to pretend that the stories are all real or they get banned tricks idiots into thinking the stories are true
i must be a disinfo agent

no, it was a piss poor attempt at taking a good thread and going "deeper" with weird alternate realties scares. The real, regular stories where fine and interesting, these were pathetic. Look at any of those dumb writing prompts they have. Its all childish garbage
