[00:21.44]Matt's Woods
[00:28.98]马特家的森林
[00:38.62]I'll try to describe the campsite as best I can;
[00:42.90]I was only ever there at night.
[00:45.98]To get there you had to walk through Matt's back yard,
[00:50.65]there was about 150 yards or so
[00:54.31]of grass between the house and the edge of the forest.
[00:58.86]Then, after entering the woods it was about 25 yards
[01:03.00]or so back to the campsite.
[01:06.33]The site itself was in the midst 1 of a bamboo patch 2.
[01:10.36]Seems like an odd 3 place for bamboo to me.
[01:13.93]There was also a small stream running through.
[01:17.64]Anyway, we got back there and built the fire.
[01:21.82]Had our party and left at around 2 or 3 I guess.
[01:27.13]Everything was normal, right?
[01:29.43]It wasn't until 2 weeks later
[01:32.05]when we were away on our senior week
[01:35.25]when the entire story seemed to come together.
[01:39.02]The night this happened,
[01:41.10]we now affectionately call "Fright Night",
[01:45.20]because we scared ourselves to death.
[01:48.62]We started out talking about weird 4 stuff,
[01:51.57]which lead to talk of ghosts and the like.
[01:55.86]Then someone said something about Matt's woods
[01:58.36]and everything poured out from there.
[02:01.17]We all had in different ways
[02:02.94]experienced a presence 5 in the forest.
[02:05.68]Actually 3 different spirits.
[02:08.42]Some of my friends saw them in the forest,
[02:10.93]some saw them through the fire,
[02:13.65]I myself only felt them,
[02:15.88]but we all pretty much agreed on one thing,
[02:19.08]they were NOT friendly.
