Terror In The Woods


Got a story you want to share? Visit Submit A Story

I wrote this on your page but I wasn’t sure if you would see it or not, so sending it to you here. Hopefully I have addressed this properly. People need to be aware that there are things in the woods that ARE NOT NATURAL!! I don’t know if they are government experiments, aliens, some say demons I don’t know. But it looked like an insect. I’m going to add a little here that I didn’t add on your page, but I think it might be important. However, this may make people even less inclined to believe me so edit as you see fit. Please include this letter with the story, but not my name or gender at the end. Thank you very much.


I’m going to have to agree at this point about unknown entities in the woods. I saw something in the woods I can’t explain. It looked and moved like a 6 foot praying mantis and made this clicking screeching sound as it followed me through the woods. No one believes me. My dogs were barking, snarling, whining,  obviously terrified. I’m going to sell my property. I’m not going back into the woods. It was daytime. If it had been at night and my dogs hadn’t been with me, I would be dead. I don’t care who believes me or not. I’m 50, have cancer, and other people’s opinions don’t matter much to me anymore.  Call it a demon if you wish. Call it an alien. A giant bug. All I know is that it was big, fast, loud, and it was not afraid of me. It was definitely stalking me. My chest hurts just writing this down.


  I didn’t see it or hear it after I got in my truck. I just sat there paralyzed. I couldn’t move. I see it almost every night in my dreams. I always go back looking for it, like it’s calling me to it. Beckoning me closer. Closer. Sometimes I stumble on it and it is consuming a fresh killed deer, or a hunter. Sometimes it is waiting for me and lashes out with it’s stiletto laden arms piercing my body before I have a chance to defend myself,  before I even have a chance to scream. And each time I see her, her? How do I know it is a female? It looks exactly like a praying mantis. There’s just something different about those eyes. They see into your soul like no insect ever could. It knows your fear. I think I knows how to follow me into my dreams. I’m wondering now if it can track me here, to my home in the city, through my dreams. I barely sleep at night. And every time the dogs bark at night I jump, adrenaline racing through my heart.


I need to add this, even though it may cause some to doubt my story even more. I have owned this property in the Ozarks since the early 90s. From time to time I have allowed close friends and family members to hunt white tail on the land. They all have been taken into confidence that a small family of Sasquatch lives on the 20 acres and gifts must be left each time the land is hunted. Something simple like a fruit basket and chocolate. They love apples and chocolate the best. They always take the entire basket. Sometimes they will leave a bundle of sticks or nuts where the basket was left. They never bother us and we never bother them. That stopped in august/September of 2018. The Basket was left untouched. I rarely ever heard them call out, maybe 3 or 4x in all those years but after 2018 the woods became more and more silent. The deer hunts were rarely successful and the elk that were seen in other areas were never seen on my land. Something was wrong. No wild boar tearing up the property either. Now I understand why.
