Hello you Fortean folks. Long time lurker stopping by who just realized he already has an account here (for a few years I think) after he tried to sign up tonight.
So much time had elapsed I'd forgot about it, and also never posted before.
Anyway, thought I would post a few minor-ish strange things which have happen to me over the years, starting with this one...
This happened about 15 years ago in some woodland in the Midlands. Me and two mates decided to go walking in some woods at around dusk. Not that lonely an area but nonetheless quite secluded.
About 10 minutes walking two men stepped out from the side of the path & stood in front of us. The convo went something like this...
Where you going lads?
Just going for a walk, one of us replied
No you're not, you're going to turn around & walk the other way.
Now at this point my alarm bells were starting to ring. Something just did not feel right about it (them).
What struck me more than anything - The two guys were not overtly aggressive, just very very confident in the fact they did not want us to go any further & that we were going comply. They both just stood there with their arms folded, blocking our route further into the woods.
*The above paragraph is what got my alarm bells ringing - It just did not feel right - Even though there were 3 of us and only two of them.
One of us said this is a public path, we can walk down here.
We pretty much got the same reply. The other guy never said a word. Only one guy did all the talking of very few words.
Cutting to the chase for the sake of brevity - we just decided to walk back the other way. Nothing more happened.
I have my own ideas about who they might have been & what they might have been doing but I thought I would throw it out to the folks on here for their ideas.
Minor strangeness I guess, but thanks for reading.
