Beware of the Jinns

David goes on to train in the military. Today we hear his story of what lyrics in the Dark waits. My name is Edwards and here is David's true scary story. It was January two thousand and eight while I was sent to my first duty station, which was Fort Stewart, which is located in Georgia. It's basically the southeast part of Georgia. It's actually a beautiful statement. I was fresh out of A two which is basically my training for my MS, schooling for what I do in the what I did in the military, which is logistics. That was out in Virginia, and I was getting off a plane in Savannah and I was thinking to myself, like, dude, what did I get into? And the only reason I say that because if you lived in the South with the community there's it's horrible like you get out and it's just like a someone taking hot breath and just blowing it on you, you know what I mean. And so what I did is I had to walk to this thing called the vs SO. The VSO is just like a place where soldiers can go to. They can use phones, they can get water, snacks, they have to wait for layovers. It's just a little center for soldiers. So I go to the vs SO and I called it off the intake office to George Stewart to let them know, hey, I need someone to come pick me up. I just arrived. It was probably about three pm when I called them. Not until little after midnight was I finally picked up by an NCO, which is a sergeant and another soldier. The airport was probably about thirty minutes away from Highville. That's the town Fort Stewart is located in. There's four interests to the base. There's a main entrance, there's two side entrances, and there's a back entrance. Now, the back entrance is off a route of one. This road is directly surrounded by woods and training sites. I forgot to mention Fort Stewart is pretty much in the woods. I'm not sure how many acres the whole base uses, but it's a massive piece of land. Anyway, here we are driving along this lonely dark road. It's about one am, and as we're driving, I'm just looking out the window and into the dark woods when I see a man standing about about thirty feet from the road, just beyond the wood where the wood life starts. I freaked out and try to keep looking, but we had already passed the spot from where I saw the map. That's the sergeant if anyone lived out in these woods. I was told the sergeant that's either that I'm just tired or just seeing things. And I don't know, just maybe in my mind. So I couldn't even confirm it because by this time, by thinking about it, I'm already on the half down the road. So about six months have passed by when I experienced another incidents with the woods and goes to the figures per se. It was around the fourth of fourth of July time when I was I was in my apartment on base on post. Housing was pretty much like the top right corner of the base, because, like I said, the basis, it's huge and it has like its parts to it where we basically go to work. There's like a section it looks almost like industrial areas where we go work with basically where all the tanks and humbies and all the warehouses are at. It's all on one side, and then you have one section where you have like the supermarket, the fast food restaurants basically where you can try to be normal, and then you have a golf course on that base, and then you have about the living areas, and like I said, it's it's pretty much the top, back and right hand corner. It's all the backside along with that. While I was talking about that one prety much where the woods are out that way, my apartment was like in that area. It was an upstairs apartment, so my living room window was actually facing the woodland. It's crippiest thing in the world when you live. I don't know anyone's ever lived by the woods. You live by the woods, and where the woodline starts, it's literally like opening and it's just like a line of woods. It's just a line of trees. And then it's super dark and you just look in there and it's just super dark because it's woods. So my living room was facing the woodline. And at this time I was living in alone in a two bedroom apartment. I was just a private meaning one of the lowest drinkings you can be in the military, and actually had nothing to part for three months besides a couch, a TV stand, TV my PlayStation of course, and a coffee table. I stepped in my living room and lived out of bags and a hamper for quite some time, just a young and dumb that is finally living on my own. It was a Saturday night, I would say, maybe around eleven, I'm gonna say. I was watching the movie called The Happening. It's the one with Mark Wahlberg or trees or something's giving off like this chemical where making people kill themselves. It's a very like dumb movie, but when you watch in the right setting, it really freaks you out because it makes you look at like Mother Earth, like damn, she could really turn on nothing kill us at any time side of here. So I'm watching this movie, and of course, right outside my window is also like a big old tree and it's kind of windy, so it's like the perfect setting and watch this dang movie and all I here is like tapping on my window and that's from the tree. So obviously I know that's just going on, but it made the movie a big creepier. When the movie was finished, I turned off my TV, of course, and the living room went dark. I had no light in there, and I got up and I started stretching because I was sitting there for a while and I was facing looking out towards the window, towards the woodline. I was stretching out and I saw what kind of look like someone walking in the wood It was weird because it's like maybe five feet from the woodline, like you could see it's a figure something's like walking. So I'm like, okay, whatever, maybe someone's walking their dog. So I just left it out night, That's what I'm thinking. But then I realized what time it was, and I'm like, wait, it doesn't know why was someone be walking along this late at night in the woods, mind you the woods, So it didn't make any sense for me for them to be walking their dog at that time, especially on face. I got a little closer to the window because I kept looking at the figure walking, and it took me to a minute to realize that the man I was looking at was not like dressed to the times right, So it wasn't like, so this was two thousand and eight, It wasn't that the clothing from this time percent of two thousand and It literally looked like a person from the seventeen hundred. I was like, wait a minute, like it doesn't seem right, what is he wearing? So even creepier he looked a little transparent, just a little bit like it was just faint. I shut the curtains, called it a knife. About a few months later, we found out we were getting deployed in December of two thousand and nine. So we're going to Iraq, We're going to Hey, we're going to war. Get we're gonna get ready. That's pretty much when a year's worth of trainings come in. So it takes about I want to say, twelve to fourteen months to get ready to go to get deployed. So you do a lot of trainings, You go to a lot of different other bases, and you do a lot of training there because they had just had massive training areas and we can be in the woods and play army per se, and so our trainings consisted of us going into the woods a lot. One training, we had to go on a field exercise for about seven days and set up shop, run some scenarios, and then tear down and come back. I was driving inn LM TV. It's a big truck that basically carries the troops in. It looks like something like you haul animals in. It's just like a big old truck that has the back of what the tops, seeing that soldiers can sit along the sides of it, and you move equipment with it. Anyway, So I'm driving one of those big old trucks and usually, like I said, usually the hall of the soldiers of the equipment. As we're driving, I noticed we would pass a lot of little grave side So we went through the woods you used to go down the roads, you'll just kind of if you look off to the side, you'll literally see like random little gravesides with headstones, just a little bit of headstone. So it was creepy because every grave set that you would see it only has ten to twelve headstones. So it's just like it's very odd that you see little grave sites of different parts of the woods. And so one time, I remember when we were driving, we actually stopped. I had to take a piss, So I stopped and pulled over and went towards like the grapes. Of course, I didn't piss on the grave side. I pushed off to the side, but I went to go look at the graveside after I was done. So I go on, I check it out and I started looking at the dates, and a lot of these dates were like seventeen eighty two, seventeen sixty five eighteen. You know one, I'm just like dang like these people. There's a lot of people here. Way back in the day. We get to our site and put that, we put up all that we know we must put up, and then we settle down and basically start playing army per sake. I was asked with with something called nightguard, and the nightguard what you do is you just secure the perimeter. You walk around the perimeter for about two hours. And I was actually my shift was the third shift, and that was basically like in the middle of the night. I think it was probably like around two am when I was like tapped on my forehead and hey man, you gotta get up at your turn. So I get up, I get my stuff on, basically got to pull on what's called full battle rattle, meaning you have to put all your gear on, your flat vest, which is your IBA, which is your fulletproof vest. You have to put on your knee ped your elbow pad, your held me like literally, I'm about to go fight somebody at war. And I put everything with my rock, which is about fifty pounds. It's a big backpack with fifty pounds of stuff in it and you just walk around the perimeter. I think they just do it to make us per se. I'm not too sure. But as I'm doing my arounds, I start hearing noises in the woods. I call it the noises of the woods. That's basically a loud cricket. You hear like your little howls. And if you ever heard an owl in the woods, it is the creepiest thing ever. It's just like this, I don't know. It's just a piercing sound and it's so quiet, and it seems like every time you hear the owl, everybody shuts up. It's just it's the priviest thing ever. I also starts also start to hear footsteps, and so I know that there's more than just me walking around. There's another Soldier's usually two soldiers that are doing it. But you're never really close to each other. You're always caddy corner from each other. So if I'm on this side of the perimeter, he's on the other side of the perimeter, it's kind of we're just doing a circle and we're chasing each other in a sense. But anyway, I start hearing footsteps and night I'm just thinking Okay, maybe it's maybe he caught up to me, or maybe it's another soldier just getting up in the middle of the night to go piss in the woods, because you know, we do that quite often when we're out there. We get up the middle of the night. We don't want to walk all the way to the quarter part, which are usually across the site, so we just go into the woods door thing. So I took it as that, so I kept walking around. Then I started noticing that the footsteps were like a little too close to me. It's just too close for it to be the other guard and it's too close for someone to be taking a piss. So I stopped and I just started listening. I just wanted to keep listening see if I can keep hearing the footsteps. So as I stopped at the footsteps stop with me. So I don't hear anything, and I just stand there. I'm like, okay, whatever. Right before I start to take off, I hear the footsteps again, so this time like, okay, who is this? Is someone following me? Is someone trying to mess with me? I, like in the scary movies, decided to go towards the noise, so I went towards the noise. Started walking towards the noise, and as I getting closer and at the footsteps, just stopped up and so I stop again, this time as I stop next to a really big tree. It's only natural when you're in the woods or trees everywhere, so when you're walking, there's always a tree right next to you. But I stand up being right next to this really big tree. At this time, I took a knee. I started drinking water, and at the same time, because I'm still listening. As I'm drinking water, I'm just looking in the darkness of the woods, I see a kid run from one tree to the other tree, and then from that tree to another tree, and I'm just like, wait a minute. I drop my water. I get up, and I'm like stuck. I'm literally stuck. I think I'm just scared at that point where I'm just stuck and I'm looking at this And the reason I'm so scared is because this part of the woods at three am, there should be no kids nowhere. There's no kids anywhere near us. So when I saw that, I freaked out. And once again as the kid was running. When I saw them running, it was like they were dressed seventeen hundreds eighteen hundreds. They were wearing the I'm not too sure if you guys remember the movie hocus Pocus in the beginning before the guy gets turned into a cat, when he's wearing like that white shirt with those weird looking like high water pants, looks like they made it out of potato sacks. I stand up and, like I said, I'm standing looking and then finally I get the courage to say hello, is anyone there? No response, So I took up my little Dnky flashlight that they give us in the middlechair. When I say, like a dingky flashlight, this thing is probably as word as good as like having a lighter and turning it on, it doesn't give you that much lights. He's kind of around you. So I take it out and I'm kind of looking around me. I don't see anything. I decided to head back towards out of the woods to get back to our site, and this time I'm briefly walking back like I'm almost running. So I'm going to them, and as I get back, I tell my buddies that this four to thirty five, they're already getting up for the day. I get back and I tell my buddies this would happen. Hey, bro, this is what happened. I was in the woods. I heard these noises of people walking. I saw a freaking kid running by, and they all looked at me. Funny. They're like, you're tripping. You gotta be tripping. You weren't sleeping or whatever. Even one of my sergeants was like, oh, you know Whatlaska is, stop being You're just tired or whatever. Okay whatever. At the end of like, as we're telling my story, one of the soldiers just says, dude, look at that. And so I think it was here at this time. The sun's not truly out yet, so it's dark still. So when he says, dude, look at that, we all churn and we look towards the woodline across the way, and that's when you see it's like very faint, but the little kid is right there at the woodline, looking right at us. So I tell you, when we all freaked out. Now this is ten people looking at this. We all freaked out out. I'm freaked out. But at the same time, I told you, guys, I told you that wasn't Yeah, that happens. They all freak out. Our sergeants in the uppers get really scared. They get really scared that we actually had to move spot. So we moved from one spot to another spot. But then again, you really can't run out. You can't run from spirits in the woods. And it's just really creepy because in those woods, I guess back in the days, there was a lot of little like villages or a lot of little towns, and yeah, a lot of those towns were actually owned by just families. And all the people in their graveyard are literally families. They're not like random or like a neighbor. They're all families. And so we have them telling you like twenty different gravesites in these woods with like dead people, just families. When we got back, it's like you you looked out, you're crazy because even though you're ten guys, twelve guys telling you this is what we saw, you're trying to convince it's like a whole unit of three hundred people to believe that it's happened. But then again, you do have people that it has happened to before. And I had a sergeant that's been at that one base for ten years and it says it all the time. I do, Like I see people fishing all the time. It's the weirdest thing I see. It almost seems like I see that people that used to hunt will be walking with a ghost dog. I'm like, it's crazy. One of my captains would tell me that they were out in the woods one time and that when they were walking, it was like a muddy area and that they were see like if you didn't have your shoes on, footprints and it's every there's no one there walking without boots. As a training sessions begin to wrap up, David finds out that he is getting deployed. However, the paranormal events only seem to get darker all of that of next so I deployed to Iraq in December of two thousand and nine, left right before ecstacy, but the first went to Kuwait and trained a bit before heading to Iraq. I was part of a gun team to later turned into a security team QRF team, and a QRF team is called a quick reaction force team. Basically, we get called up if let's say someone's trying to break into the bobs before an operating bases and they're over there starting to overtake the gay guards, so they'll call us and we'll pretty much rush over there and start fighting, so like a quick reaction. We were a squad about fifteen to seventeen guys plus our translator. We were assigned the Louis. Louis was in his late thirties at that time. He was like the storage statured man with a lot of stories about Iraq. I grew up pretty much there because he had a lot of stories about Iraq. When we went to train, he would tell us about this one village that's like on the bank of the Tigris River that was famous for sightings of shape shifters gins And at the time I wasn't too big into the paranormal like I am today, but it did catch my attention when he was giving when he was telling me the story because the stuff that I've been through, like I said, growing up, and then obviously the stuff that I went through when I was in the station in Georgia and all that stuff with the crazy stories of the woods. So after we complete all the training we needed in Kuwait, we basically were finally off on a Hinduk, which is the big helicopters with the two blades on top. They're very loud and anyways, so we get in one of those. It takes us from Kuwait. Kuwait's right above Iraq and we go fly into Iraq and it takes us to our first BOB, which is Fob Falcon. And for people that don't know what that means, like I said, it's the forward Operating base. So, like I said, little bases that you house the soldiers. We were there for about five months before we relocated to Camp Liberty. Camp Liverty now is the bigger It's like the bigger bases that's where like a lot of generals and all that would stay at It had a lot more manities out there, and it's just a way bigger base. Like I said, we went out that we did mostly a lot of convoy security. Basically, the convoy security consisted of just escorting logistics runs from like Camp Liberty to for say, FOB Falcon, Fob Hammer whatever, little because those like Bob Hammer and Fall Falcon are very small compared to Camp Liberty, so they have to have their their food, their water, everything has to be taken to them because everything comes in through Camp Liberty and then everything then everything once they get sorted out through like the warehouses, through the logistics kind of gets put on the trucks. We have to escort them to wherever they're going. We just made sure that the LOGISTI runs will go smoothly and then escort the civil in trucks back to Camp Liberty the following night. Because I was a gunner slash driver, I was able to leave the wire. I mean I was able to leave the fob really experience in c Iraq. Most just stay on the fob, and a lot of people don't know this when you get deployed, depending on what your job is, a lot of the times people's jobs they just require to stay on the base like they're safe, not one hundred percent, but they're safer than someone that goes outside the wire, meaning that actually leaves the base and has to be on the roads and face all those dangers. But I was fortunate enough to experience Iraq era to leave and do what I did. While I was over there, maybe about a month in the in I Camp Liberty, we were on a mission to a thob that was like about forty five minutes away, nothing big, just take a few trucks there, drop off come back all in one night. Now, these civilian truck drivers are what we call we like to call them their world nationals. They're basically typically poor people from other countries. They get paid nothing, nothing to us, but to them in their country, it's a lot of money. And like they said that, that's what they do. They get contracted to the Department of the Defense and they end up working out there. I met a lot of truck drivers with a lot of stories. But one truck driver I met was from Iraq. He was in his mid fifties, looks super tired and just run that like life has just tore him anew. But he was full of life. That's one thing that's for sure. He would tell us that he will tell us the crazy times under Saddam. He would tell us the scary stories of the gins and his interactions. Who would get us going, who would told a really scary story. So as the trucks were getting download, we would just sit and wait. Basically while they were getting down, it would just sit and wait. Make sure the truck drivers to overtake the fob and try to kill anybody. So we just make sure everything's going smoothly. So I and a few other soldiers go and sit with our translator and just start talking about the old Iraq and how it looked. As Louis is talking, I see the old man, that truck driver that I had a lot of stories, walking from the bathroom back to his truck. So I tell that old man, hey, come over, come sit with us, come talk to us. He did speak English. Wasn't the greatest, but he did speak English, so he did. He came over and I introduced him to Louis because he had not Louis, and we proceed to keep talking. I I crested with the truck driver basically tells us the story of his encounters with the gins or shape shifters. He begins to tell his story, and as he's going along, Louis is pretty much confirming the truth behind everything he's saying. So not only is he saying they started and creeping you out, you have someone just yeah that's true, Yeah that's true. It's like okay. So he was telling us how he was walking home one night and stated he was being followed by a gin. He says that he looked back and saw what it looked like, an older lady in black just walking briskly behind him, and he stated he started running and when he got a little ahead, he said, he looked back again and saw a goat just standing there. Why do you think about it? Just a goat. He doesn't mean to make any sense. It's not a scary, but you're like, okay, you have an old lady think Turando is a goat? Okay. So then he said that when he turned around he saw the goat, that the goat was just looking at him, and it's like, okay, why is this gat just looking at me? And that the goat just walked into the field. And as they as he saw the goat walking into the field, it just disappeared. So we're like, okay, all right, get that. Going on one of our last few missions, we were tasked to go to do a security walk through in a village by the Euphrates River, probably about two hours away from Camp Liberty is walking around and making sure everything is cool. So it's just like posing security for that village because sometimes you get we'll get intel that isis would be running through there, or there could be potential bad guys in the area. So what we do is we go through the middle of the night and do a surprise walk through. Just make sure it's kind of cool. Copa set it so, like I said, we're doing just make sure they're no bad guys in the area. It's probably about eleven PM when we got there, probably stopped about four hundred meters from like the beginning of the village, and we go blackout. So the whole time we're going, we're blacked out, meaning there's no lights. We use the night vision pretty much in infrared prob. About four undred meters out we stopped. We pulled off to the side of the road which is like the bank of the Euphrates, and it was about it was a dark night. The moon wasn't really out. It was like in the phase whorres I like to call a gun God's thumbnail where it's just like looks like a thumbnail. It's not a full moon. It's like the very end of it. And so there's really not a lot of light. It's really dark out there, so we have to basically use our night vision. When we got the all nloaded the humbies and we all went in humpies. No no big trucks, just dumbies. Caught our weapons and our ear ready I was at the back of my humvee getting my gear, getting my gear on, getting ready, and I saw what looked like to be a man standing like three hundred meters away, but behind us, not towards the village, but behind us. Picked them. I M four, have on my M four. Of course, I have my scope. I have my flashlight on it and all that good stuff. Can I a little check that weapon and I pull it up and I shine my light at him. It's super bright. These lights are pretty bright. So I shined my light at him. Nothing's there, right, You're like, okay, pretty sure there was a guy there. I know. I'm not high, I'm not drunk. I'm in Iraq. I did get enough sleep. So I'm running through my head and I'm just as a light shining. I'm looking around. Okay, there's nothing there. I turned the light back off, and as I turned the light back off, the freaking shadow of the man is standing right in front of me. At that moment, I tell our buddy, I'm like, dude, i'saw on the rad I'm like, if someone needs to come over here and I and look at this right, So two or three people walk down towards me. Which is like a sergeant, lieutenant, and another soldier. They walk out towards me, and as I're walking, I'm still looking at at this figure. And as they walk up towards me, the figure starts to walk to the field, and so I'm looking at him like, okay, he's walking towards the field. And so I was just walking towards the field. There's like these I'm not too sure what to call them, but like on the river bed, there's like these bushes that grow there, like really big vines, and they grow up, they go up and it's really high, and they will block vision. If you walk behind that thing, you like blocks you one hundred percent. So he was like when he was walking to the field, he had across one of these big old bushes and when he did that of a figure whatever it was, when it did that, I lost vision of it. And so as by the three the lieutenants, the sergeant and the soldiers coming up, I had already started saying that to look out to the gunners, to look out to that field and to scan the field because I don't have a vision on this whatever it is anymore. So at the gunner from the first truck, he's on top of the truck, still on his guns. So he looks over. He uses his night vision, the night vision scope, and not only dad he used is Infra red goggles. And as he's scanning, he's you can hear on the room, this is our own radio. Right as he's scanning, He's radio is in what he's seen. And so when he starts what he's seen, he's saying that he sees what looks like to be a man or a human, but walking on all fours. And so he's so we're like, wait, what, And we're listening to this on the radio. And then not only do we have radios that are in our ear, we have radios that just you can hear it when they're talking. It's just not hooked up to our headsets. And so louis listening to this right, and Louie is not that far from us. So as our gunner is telling us what's going on, Louis starts to pray in Arabic and I can hear him. I'm hearing him praying and he's talking in Arabic, and I look back and I'm like, yo, what's going on, Louie? And he doesn't say nothing to me. He's praying, he's praying, he's praying, and finally he's done, and then I asked him again, Louis, is everything okay? He was like, you don't want to hear this. And I'm like, what do you mean that's a gin? That's a gin. I'm like, what do you mean it's a gin's that's a shape shifter. I'm telling you he's we need to leave. And I'm like, okay, So I tell my lieutenant and as I as Louis telling me this, they're obviously it's still talking over the radio. The gunner says, all you hear is The gunner says, it's gone. Like, what do you mean it's gone? That's my thought, what do you mean it's gone? I help on the top of my truck. I put on my infrared goggles too, and I'm looking. There's nothing in the fields. There's nothing in the fields. Maybe about ten minutes later that thing appears. But on the other side of the village, when you're looking at the village straight, it's literally like the road goes there's a road that goes right straight through the village, and on the other side it's just you keep going to whatever is going to lead you to this thing. Somehow got from that field within maybe five minutes, like another one thousand meters to the other side of the road. Right now, we're looking at this thing on the bottom. It's about a thousand minutes, but you can still see that far. We have eric goggles, so we see this thing and it starts walking towards us. At that point, our lieutenant was like, what is going on? So we literally get ready because we think, okay, is this what is a person? What is this coming at us? So we get ready, we get our guns out, we literally get in our form on in a tactical formation, and we start walking towards it as well. I don't even think this was the best idea, but we had to do it because we don't know what we're dealing with. Louis is telling we're dealing with a gin, but when it comes to military standards, we're not to sit there and believe that it is a gin. We have to take it as this is a human. So we go towards like the flying be we're going towards with our weapons. We span out across the road, so now it's just a line of us walking down this one road and literally, with our weapons drawn lights, everything we see the dark. We can see the darkness of this thing walking towards us. And as we get closer and closer, I'm telling you, my heart is going through my chest at this point, because not only are we looking at what is a shadow, this shadow looks to be like seven feet tall. So as we get closer, it just seems like it seems getting bigger and bigger. And we stopped maybe three hundred meters from it. We stopped and we just we I think we all stopped because we were scared. To be honest, we all stopped, and we were just looking at this thing. And this thing stops, and what it looked while we're looking at it, it seems it gets shorter and shorter, and it really ends up looking like a three foot midget at this point. And so we're just looking at this are we really just witnessing something get from a seven foot tall figure to a three foot twell figure. And I don't know how to process this, but all I know what to do was shine my light at it. And when we shined our light at it, it looked like a goat with these bead red eyes, but it was standing like an old man, crunched like if he was so old that his back was curved, and he was really low to the ground, and it looked like an old man, but with a goat face and these b red eyes. When that happened, we ran, We literally ran back. We ran back because we didn't know what the hell that was. But when we got back to the trucks, Louis didn't come with us. By the way, I forgot to say that Louis decided to stay back because he knew what what we're dealing with. When we saw that, we ran back, and when we ran back towards the truck, that seven foot figure was two hundred meters behind our trucks. Again, so now at this point we don't know what we're dealing with. I start praying to God for the first time that I've been and I ran forgot how long it is the first time. I'm praying, thinking that I don't get possessed or whatnot, because we really don't know what's going on. We get back to the base. We literally get through our trucks. We just take off. We get we take off through the through where the guy thing was standing me by that time when we started taking off that the figure was on. So we just we took off, We went through the tree, we went down the dirt road, we got back to our to the base, to the fobs. Literally we sounded like seventeen crazy people. Seventeen crazy people were telling them because we have to report this. So this is actually documented federally in file of what happened and what we saw. Now after the crazy part about it. When we got back a week before we left, we had one more mission and on that last mission, it was took a fob called bob Hammer. Fob Hammer is like in the middle of nowhere. It's open fields. When we were going maybe like about forty five minutes from fob Hammer. When we were getting there, obviously we do everything at night. We were looking out, I was scanning the fields and as I'm scanning the fields, there's that goddamn shadow again. And I tell every week I stopped. I was the first truck I stopped. So when I stop, everybody stops and everyway, and when I'm I'm looking at the shadow and I tell everything and everybody's what's going on? What's going on? On the radio. I don't say nothing for like maybe a minute, and then I just saw everybody, you need to look east, and everybody looks east. And when everybody looks east, that the A said. The thing was standing there just looking at us. And it's in the dark, and all your ped red eyes, bed red eyes, and they're just looking at us. And at that moment, I knew I encountered a gin. I knew it. I had to believe it because not only it happened once, it happened twice. And I wish I could say it was crazy, and I wish I could say that this would make believe. But honestly, when you come into experience or an encounter with a gin, I feel like it not only leaves you with this memory, but you do have reoccurring dreams. I have dreams where I see this black shadow and it freaks me out, and I feel like, not only did I leave it there, I think it came back with me and it's in my dreams. And I'm not the only one that does dream it. There's literally like ten guys that tell you the same thing. I asked Louis, what are gems exactly? What are they? And he says they're just they're like, they're bad spirits. They're almost like demi. They basically they just transform into whatever they need to either get away or to mess with people, be mischievous in a sense. Everybody had their own vision of it, their own story of it, but it's all the same thing. We saw the dark figure, we saw the beady red eyes, we see it in our dream still. So it's just it's the weirdest thing. Do you have a true scary story you want to tell.
