Just to clarify there's no bloody way she could have walked away okay from that fall, the bridge was over train tracks, so spooked the fuck out of me.
Was not dardy.

Once the car hit the ground I realized that something was lifting up the back. The weird part was how clearly we heard the voice of an old man say "goodbye" before the car dropped. Have two other experiences on that drive home I'm going to post.

First time I'm telling this story. It's not that exciting but I still think about it whenever I'm driving alone at night.

>Be mid-September, 2015. Senior in college
>Roadtripping from Uni in midwest to Montana for a project
>Whole trip was 4 days long
>We had to get back to school quick, so we drove in shifts
>My shift, driving somewhere around the Wyoming Montana border, just west of the Bighorn National Forest. We can see the mountains in the distance.
>Clouds overhead. It's thundering and lightning, but there's no rain
>I'm the only one awake. It's about 3:30 AM, I've been driving since midnight. Going to trade shifts once we hit Cheyenne.
>It's dead silent, and we're the only ones on the road.
>Area is very hilly, but there are no trees. It's very picturesque when the lightning flashes. Looks like pic related.
>Concentrating on road, getting sleepy but slammed a Starbucks cold brew so that shit is liquid crack. I'm in a stage of tired, but jittery
>Lightning flashes again, and I see 5 tall figures on a hill about 500 yards off the highway.
>They were lined up in a perfect straight line. All of them maybe 5-6 foot tall, maybe 1-2 feet wide. Not crazy big, but they still stuck out like a sore thumb in the night
>Thought it was some sort of stone monument.
>Extended lightning, and can see that they're fucking moving
>They move in parallel with one another, almost as if they're floating. Watch for a few seconds until the lightning fades and the entire countryside is black again save for what's in my headlights.
>Drive past where they were. Lightning doesn't flash again until I'm far enough down the road where I can't pick them up.

Still trying to figure out what the fuck 5 people, or whatever they were were doing in a field in Montana or Wyoming at 3:30 AM in a thunderstorm.

>Homeless man shouts "GOODBYE"
>slowly pull my head back into the car and drive home.

That was 6 years ago, and although we are a very outdoorsy couple we've never gone anything south of Northern West Virginia. Now we're in the process of finding a house and we've found some really afforable nice ones online in North Carolina.. so I'll be driving us down there tomorrow. Hopefully no more OC though.

Your story went from

>>17713777
creepy and maybe slight believable

to

>>17713857
wow your bf is kind of a dick there

and finally

>>17713933
okay now this is starting to sound like a bad creepypasta.

>>17714470
My bf IS a dick. I didn't get into the argument we had but consider that he had driven 8 hours to pick up a dog and had another 8 hours to drive back before he planned to go right into work. With that in consideration I don't take it too personally. Glad you find the creepy homeless dude banging on the side of my car to be the most unbelievable part of a story where something lifted the back end of my car up during a blizzard and trees lurking in a black oblivion were seemingly pawing at our car. That's where you start having doubts. Fortunately I don't post my experiences on a Taiwaneese noodle board to be validated by overweight strangers.

No, it was unbelievable and starting to sound like pasta because you seemed to insinuate that the creepy old man was the same thing that was holding your car in place with him saying the exact same thing and being a creeper. The tree thing I just took for you being scared and your idiot boyfriend driving like a lunatic on no sleep, which is how car accidents happen and people die, as you should well know, considering how you opened your story.

>Fortunately I don't post my experiences on a Taiwaneese noodle board to be validated by overweight strangers.

Oh give the meme a rest and stop being so sensitive, honey. If you can't take a bit of criticism over the internet, especially the chans, you're too thin-skinned.

Here's one of my experiences

>Driving home right around twilight
>That time where it's still kind of day but you can see a few bright star spearing
>Driving down long country road
>See this one really right star
>Watch it for several minutes because it's kind of right there in my line of vision
>Go by a patch of trees with my eyes still trained on where the star should be
>Star is gone
>Search the whole sky
>No stars

I know it doesn't sound very exciting but we have a few people around here that claim to have seen aliens. I doubt it was an airplane because it didn't move. It couldn't have been a helicopter because it wouldn't have been able to move away that quickly.

I really don't feel that the homeless dude was the one holding the car. Just that he said the same exact thing as the mysterious voice outside the car. They didn't even sound alike that I remember, but the homeless dude was shouting since we were making our get away. I just posted my personal experience, it's not really open to your criticism. If you're looking to critique what you believe are stories you may want to move on to someplace where your "talents" may be appreciated.

>>17713172
Do you Ausfags just like to play up the accent online, or do you actually talk like that?

>>17715446
Does it make you feel less like a retarded loser to make cliche-grade smartass comments on 4chan?

>>17715502
Why are you trying to criticize Anon's story like it's a piece of prose? It's their personal experiences (or at least that's what they claim), so it's not really up for debate.
Anyway, this argument is stupid, so I'm out.

>>17715522
This guy >>17715502 is a different anon from me.

And why does it matter to you? People get trolled and shit on all the time, it's fucking 4chan, I was being downright civil. The poster of the story is the one who started getting all butthurt and defensive over it. I say again, grow a thicker skin, or you'll be eaten alive here.

>I really don't feel that the homeless dude was the one holding the car. Just that he said the same exact thing as the mysterious voice outside the car. They didn't even sound alike that I remember, but the homeless dude was shouting since we were making our get away.

Fair enough, but it sounded like that was what you were insinuating.

>I just posted my personal experience, it's not really open to your criticism. If you're looking to critique what you believe are stories you may want to move on to someplace where your "talents" may be appreciated.

One more time, it's fucking 4chan. Of course people are going to pick things apart here. If you can't handle that, then maybe you need to find a nice hugbox to post you stories. I made one tiny little remark about how I thought the third story was sounding like creepypasta because of what you wrote in the first part, and you had to take it as a personal offense instead of just explaining things like a normal person. If you are that sensitive, you should leave.

>>17713933
I liked your stories.

Especially the creepy trees thing. Do you recall what highway you were on at that point?

>>17714581
As someone who used to live in a city full of homeless freaks, they can be scarier than the paranormal.

Still remember the horror of just trying to get several blocks through the downtown from my bus to my work. One time (right before I gave up and bought a car, lol) I literally had to dodge two guys trying to snatch at me, another shoving some stupid homeless newspaper in my face and demanding money, and then just as I got my balance back one drug addled freak lounging across the sidewalk tried to grab my fucking ankle. I kicked him in the face. Hard.

So yeah. I liked your stories. They had a nice surreal quality and you describe stuff well.

>>17715502
I have a great idea.

Go kill yourself. Thanks.

>>17715522
Nice double dubs. It's a troll. Shouldn't have replied myself, but sometimes you just give in to the urge. Personally, should I ever meet in person someone who enjoys that kind of thing and is stupid enough to admit it to me, I'm planning on beating him to a pulp. ;>)

>>17716280
Sounds very unpleasant.

>>17716288
>calls someone who makes the tiniest critical remark a "troll"
>imma interweb tough guy and I'll beat these "trolls" to a pulp irl!!!

Bitch please, if you're this sensitive to something totally innocuous on the internet, you would get your ass handed to you in a real life argument. Please leave before you embarrass yourself even further.

>>17712438
I have two. Cant greentext.


Half hour drive in well populated south florida.

Thick fog, can only see about 20-30ft
Didnt see a single car or person the whole way, including driving on whats normally a busy highway at around 2am.

Eventually start thinking of the end of silent hill movie, perhaps I hit a tree and died and this is just the last release of chemicals my brain produced my drive home.

Sat in my car for 10 minutes in my driveway trying to call people because i was thinking me walking in the front door would be the end.


Another I was driving from indiantown (thats the towns name, and its a reservation )around 3am after camping with pals.

small two lane road for about 10-15 miles

Driving by the towns school where a drunk driver hit a bunch of kids.

See something out of the corner of my eye that looks like a person with antlers right next to the roadway

as i pass i think they reachreach out to touch the car and theres no way i didnt hit their arm. It honestly seemed like they were trying to reach INTO the car as i passed.

cop is passing and slows down, i think maybe he saw something or could tell by my driving i was a bit spooked.

my friend instantly says did you see that? i thought it was a person.

asked what he saw, described the same thing antlers and all. Even the part about reaching toward the car.


I honestly never believed in /x/ stuff but after that i keep more of an open mind.

>>17716288
Whoa fuck we got a badass over here!

Wasn't that late, wasn't tired or sleep deprived or anything. I've never seen that giant dog around here since. I know certain dog breeds can grow really tall, but i've never seen a dog that stands taller than a car.

>>17720343

>driving home from visiting friends at about 3am

>approaching winter, kind of foggy and cold as fuck

>ask again if he needs help or a ride somewhere
>just keeps stumbling along like i'm not even there
>getting kinda spooped so i drive away

I know it was kind of a dick move to leave him there, but I was pretty creeped out and he was probably drunk or high on something if he couldn't "hear" me. It was early AM and it was really quiet out. I did put a call in to the police when I got home just in case he needed help, as I couldn't see that he was visibly injured but didn't know who else you could call about something like that.
