This might not seem too creepy to anyone out there, but it’s a true story. When I was young, about eight or nine, I lived in a house with a steep, rocky backyard that led into a creek. There was a locked fence that separated it, but that was easy enough to climb over. I had never thought to do it before, but one day I saw an older kid walking back into the woods. I decided to follow him, and what I found was really disturbing. This kid had created a trap in the ground, with sand and some boards, and used it to catch small animals. When I went down there the first time he had a cat in the pit and he sat and watched it try to escape for a while. He did this for a few days, always leaving before sunset. One day I decided to stay after he left and take the animal out, because I didn’t want it to die and I was too afraid to tell anyone. It was around sunset when he left, and I waited until I knew he was gone and went over to the sand pit. There was no animal there, just old looking bones. I stared at them for a while and they started to make words in another language. I knew it wasn’t English but the words had dark meanings. I started to feel sick and cold all over, and as the sun was setting I heard something move in the woods. Something big trying to be quiet. After that I ran as fast as I could back to the fence and climbed over. But I looked back once and saw a shadow that looked part man, part animal. I remember its eyes reflected the color of the sunset. I had nightmares for weeks and never went back. I told a friend my age about it once and she told me the boy talked to Satan.
