I do believe these creatures exist. Just like Bigfoot in The Pacific Northwest.
There is shit out there in the woods we will never understand.
Have you looked at all the missing 411 stories of those who vanished in the woods? People talking about unexplained and bizzare creatures theyve seen?
I have a story as well. When I was about 19 or 20, we lived in Troy and we had 5 acres and then woods around it. It was deep or heavy woods. They ran into one of the county parks. No more than a mile....so just very small patches. NOTHING like the wilderness. There was something off or weird wrong with the property though that would "flare up" on occasion. And when it was "flared up" I would have sleep paralysis (without paralysis...like...false awakenings....I've had a lot of bizzare experinces). We also have the "phantom caller".
The phantom caller would call all hours of the day and night. Back then it was land lines. We would answer and nothing. We even had the phone company try to trace them....nothing. All hours. I would hear the phone ring at 2, 3am and I would feel terror. Absolutely cold blood terror.
Well one time during one of these energy flare ups (I know that sounds weird but I cant think of any other way to describe it. Suddenly the whole energy of the property would change into this really uncomfortable and sad energy. It was thick and would almost buzz, and fear would strike over the smallest things. I have PTSD so I will get anxiety fast hard and it's hard for me to relax once I'm "triggered", today I'm much better, back then it was a struggle) my grandmother and I saw what looked like a black dog.
This black dog looked like a solid black german shepherd. It was off a ways ....a few acres away. It was laying on its side. You know that position they get in when they lay....like a fuzzy cashew? It laid like that. And I swear to God....it would shrink. We watched it there just shrinking until it was gone....then reappearing to normal size...and shrinking again.
We had both noticed this but didnt mention it right away because it was just SO weird. Finally my grandma called me and asked me if I could see it. I told her I did...and I had been seeing it. And we got pretty freaked and thought...maybe it's a garbage bag that is blowing in the wind and just looks like a shrinking black dog.
After another few days...).it came back(it wasnt there all the time. It would show up...do this shrink thing....go away and come back every few days. This went on for weeks) we decided to go outside and try to interact with it.
So we went outside, I had a baseball bat....we walked up until we were maybe 100 feet closer, and we panicked. We yelled at it....nothing. It just laid there shrinking and reappearing. We decided NOPE and went back in.
After that day we never saw it again. No idea what it was. No idea what it was doing. Nothing ever happened. We just witnessed this BIZZARE thing. I've even googled it trying to find a lore or stories like that....nothing.
My only other witness is gone and with the Lord. I know this isnt some super interesting story or very exciting...a black dog just shrinking and reappearing. But it happened. And I'm still puzzled and creeped out when I think of it.
