cemetery kids
« on: October 02, 2012, 04:47:47 PM »
been off trying to bow hunt a few days.
when i left today, on the way back is
a Texas Republic-era cemetery where
a friend is laid to rest, and i stopped to
pay my respects. this place is a good
couple of miles from any house or
dwelling. after paying my respects, i
picked up a few acorns and hickory nuts
from the ancient trees there for planting later.
while stooped over picking up fallen acorns,
i heard a child laughing as if at playtime at
school. i didn't think anything at first, but it
dawned on me that this place is miles from
any place a kid would be, and i stood up
and look around. nothing. . . .nobody. . . .
i blew it off and bent over to pick up more
acorns and more laughter again, except this
time two kids. as soon as i stood up, no laughter.
there is an old church/meeting house/school
next to the cemetery that is way over 100
years old, but i looked through the window and
no one was there.
spooky weird deal. . . . ???

 I enjoy walking through old graveyards. Never had an experience like yours but heck, that is where the dead people live, right?  ;D

late one foggy night around 12  i saw my first battry powered light on a grave in a very old grave yard next to a very old church. I was on a road with no traffic at the time and no other lights. The light looked like a fuzzy ball of light as the fog hid everything else.

 I'm horrible about stopping at every old cemetary I see and going wandering. The mysteries i've found concerning various graves are many but I have to say i've never seen anything supernatural. Ever notice though, how often in 17, 18 and early 19th century graveyards theres always a childrens section? Since so often the children died young, they would have been buried alone as no other family had yet passed, so instead they were interred beside all the other kids, bet those laughs you heard were coming from the direction of all those tiny diamond shaped stones.

don't know. never experienced anything
like that before.  :(
there were 3 deer grazing that ran a short
way off when i pulled up, so i wouldn't
think anything too far out was up.
if i'd have seen something, i'd for sure
been rattled a bit. 
weird deal.

went by there again on the way back.
no voices or anything, but there were
no deer there like there has always been
and no birds or squirrels around anywhere.
that was a little spooky.

wasn't skeerd so much as odd
feeling. no animals or birds is
a weird thing in that part of the
world. if i'd have been too put off i'd
have jumped in the truck and
spun gravel everywhere getting
out of dodge.
had an XD45 in my pocket anyway. . . .

. I feel like that sometimes after hitting a predator call, like somethings out there watching me but won't show itself.
