Stairs in the forest?

Fuck off, reddit

Been here for years, bud. Literally never heard this one before.

It comes from a story on leddit's nosleep. The story is supposedly told by a park ranger from one of the larger national forests about the weird things he's seen, heard, and encountered during his job. Among those are these alleged stairways that appear and disappear in the middle of nowhere, and his superiors and coworkers just say "don't walk up them, don't talk about them, don't even fucking touch them."

He did so once while looking for a missing kid, and his superior knew he did it because the dogs suddenly lost the scent. He talks about another ranger who walked to the top once and his entire hand disappeared, as if cut clean off, but the hand itself was no where to be found. Another allegedly walked to the top of a set and vanished completely. Basically, bad shit happens if you touch them.

It's most likely fiction, though.

I wouldn't have to trudge through their piles of shit for a decent spooky story if /x/ had more OC.

Thanks for the info. I don't mind these fake stories. Just as good as dubiously true ones on a night like I'm having (coyote pack ran into a wolf not far from me about twenty mins ago, spookiest noises I've heard in a while).

It's just the top of a ruin put there by lazy developers. The rest of the model is hidden underground.

Okay, I'm going to ask. Why are you posting this everywhere?

>>17828820
I read a part where the parks hired people to cut down some trees and they found a perfectly good hand INSIDE a tree. Both the Rangers and the workers thought the other was playing a joke.

Best explanation of this topic ive seen

The stories are FICTION but a good read. Author also has a small website. Enjoy your spoopy stories.

ftaires!

I grew up next to an abandoned quarry. There were a bunch of strange granite formations in those woods. Including, but not limited to, a staircase with about six steps.

what a time to be alive

Look at the 0revailing tenor of the posters here, until you self moderate the trash it will always be this way.

Similar stories were on /x/ maybe back in 2008 or so, 2009... this place has forgotten more spooky stuff than reddit has posted, lol.

Kind of like that SCP infinite staircase... or House of Leaves mixed with indawoods stuff.

It's creepypasta from Reddit's nosleep. I must say it's pretty good. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/3iex1h/im_a_search_and_rescue_officer_for_the_us_forest/

It's fiction. The guy is a horror story writer and links to his site in the later posts.
