Consider this your stay at home special.

This is a collection of allegedly true scary stories that happened in the woods that I've

read in the past that will help to remind you that being indoors isn't so bad after all,

because the woods is a scary place.

If you've had a scary experience of your own, share it with us at darkstories.org for

a chance to have it narrated.

If you enjoy these stories, or you support what I do, like this video and share it with

your friends and family.

Now then, enjoy.

Still like a statue from John Extravagans.

In July of 2008, I was taking a road trip across the southern United States.

I only had a couple of weeks before I would begin university, and I had just moved on

from a breakup.

So I decided to go on a solo road trip before summer break ended.

My plan was to begin in Nashville, Tennessee, camp at some national parks in Alabama, go to

a beach or two in Florida, then finish it all off with Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

At this point of the trip, I was in Alabama.

The first national park I intended to go to in Alabama was the Bancad National Forest,

which if you've ever seen it on a map or in person, you know it's fairly big and

desolate.

But I liked it that way, because I don't get to see a whole lot of genuine nature where

I live.
