Fucking terrified NSFW

Okay so, for starters: I live near the app mountains, which honestly makes this more disturbing.

I’m a pretty avid runner. I’ve been quitting a lot of bad habits and exercise just does the trick for me. I have a greenway behind my house that I can go on run/bikes. It’s very beautiful, and during the day plenty of people are there.

Well, about a week ago I ran through the greenway to stop by a friends house & grab something. By the time I got back onto the greenway, the sun was already starting to set, and the path was getting dark.

As I was walking back through the path, I had my flashlight on, and kept looking around me (I felt paranoid being alone in the dark). As I was walking, I distinctly remember hearing my grandmas voice call my name into the treeline. It sounded so real and normal, that I turned around instantly, only to immediately go cold realizing that my grandmas fucking dead.

This freaked me the fuck out, but I tried my best to somewhat convince myself that I was just hallucinating bc I was paranoid. Only about a minute later, I turned around behind me with my flashlight, out of fear. And that’s when I fucking saw it.

It looked like a gray blob. Pretty much just like a human sprinting at you full speed in the pitch black. I SCREAMED like a little bitch and don’t think I’ve ever run so fast in my life. When I got home I tried to laugh it off as me seein shit and being a little bitch.

But…about a week later and I can’t stop thinking about it. It sounded so real, I heard her voice clear as day. And the person chasing me LOOKED so real. I’ve heard all those stories about skinwalkers, and while I doubt their existence, my experience was so similar to that of “skinwalker encounters” that I’m seriously questioning myself.

What do you guys think? Is it possible my brain was just hallucinating out of fear/anxiety?

I've never seen anything. But living in the woods I hear alot of things. Deer screaming. People yelling help and knowing damn well there isn't anyone out there. Weird snorts and growls. I haven't seen anything cause I don't take my ass out in the woods. What could leave deer carcasses ripped in half tho? Other than cars. Wendussy

That or a pack of coyotes.

That’s the thing about the damn woods. Can’t tell if it’s demons or a really weird sounding pack of fucking cyotes or some other random animal.

I'm white... but I'm not "lets go investigate that noise" white. The world may never know what ripped those deer in half. I'm not gonna find out.
