A teen is squirrel hunting when, suddenly, a huge squirrel charges at him. Later, at home, he encounters an unknown entity in his bedroom. Was it an avenging spirit?
I received this bizarre account:
“When I was 16 my dad took me hunting for the first time. It was the middle of the day so I decided to hunt small game. Found a good spot on a steep hill where a tree had fallen over that made a perfect place to sit. I was there for about 45 minutes and had probably 8 squirrels and one I just clipped and was screaming in a lot of pain. To this day I still feel bad about it.
The next thing I knew I was being charged by this huge squirrel. It had this crazy hair and was twice the size running full steam on the log I was sitting on. I took 5 panic-filled shots that thought would be my last when little Rambo didn’t flinch once and just jumped over my head off into the woods. I gathered my kills and got the hell out there.
When I got back to camp, I told my dad and he just laughed. Thinking back it was pretty funny. Not sure if this is related or not but as a kid I always had trouble sleeping and even as an adult. Anyway a couple weeks after our hunting trip, I couldn’t sleep. My room was downstairs, and everyone else was upstairs. So on this night, I decided to try and sleep on the floor. I had a big closet that was to the left of the room and right next to where I was lying down. It didn’t have a door. It was actually under the stairs. So I was lying on my right side facing the closet just about to fall asleep when something grabbed my right forearm! So I start screaming, trying to get this thing off me! It scared me even more when I started to feel this thing's features. It had a huge head and was wrinkled with a pointed nose it was wearing clothes and was 3 feet tall. Now, I was punching and doing everything I could but it wouldn’t let go. Its hand covered half of my arm. The first light I tried to turn on wouldn’t so I lunged over for the closet light. It, thank god, worked and it was gone just like that?
This is not a story and just wondering if anyone has info or a thought? Could it have been the squirrel shape-shifter protecting his woods who followed me home to give me a good scare? Man, only god knows. Thanks.” DD
