    When I was a senior in highschool my friends and I went into this wooded area that supposedly had a witches house somewhere in it. (This was a year or two before Blair Witch had come out).

    There was a full moon so we had enough light to traverse the woods but couldn’t see too far around us. After about 30 minutes some of the girls we were with wanted to turn around. My best friend volunteered to take them back and the rest of us continued on.

    After about another 30 minutes or we come to a big clearing in the middle of the woods. That’s when I swear I saw something moving out of the corner of my eye. I looked over and saw nothing. Then I saw something out of the corner again and again. I kept seeing it out of the corner of my eye no matter which way I turned. My girlfriend who was holding my arm suddenly let go exclaiming I felt cold. Another guy in the group touched my arm and confirmed it. He described it as a coke can that just came out of the fridge. By this time I was shivering. This was in central Texas in August. It had to be in the 90s, maybe high 80s at the least. (Above 30° Celsius.)

    So we hightail it out of there. When we got out of the woods and met up with the ones who headed back, they were all freaking out. They ask us if we were fucking with them. And we repeatedly said no because we had just continued on when they turned back.

    Apparently as they were exiting the woods they all heard me yell my best friends name. After much arguing and discussion we put the timelines together. They heard my voice yell out to them at the same time I turned ice cold in the clearing. Which also happened to be the furthest point we were away from them. Plus I never yelled his name.

    Needless to say we hightailed it out of there. We were so freaked out we broke into a church to get some holy water. You know just in case something followed us.
