Witness Accounts
On an unknown date, a group of four friends, consisting of the narrator, his wife Judy, Elden, and Lorraine, embarked on a trip to Mount Shasta in Siskiyou County, California, aiming to explore paranormal phenomena. They had secured an Airbnb near McLoud Avenue in the town of Weed, California, seeking a comfortable base for their adventures into the woods. Upon arrival at the Airbnb, the atmosphere inside was stale, with signs that previous occupants had likely smoked inside. They found a pamphlet in the master bedroom drawer from a local religious organization called the Church of Light and Life, which prompted them to contact the church for potential leads on paranormal experiences. This decision led the group to a remote location where they hoped to investigate further. As dusk approached, they drove down a poorly marked and overgrown dirt road, which they believed led to the church's gathering spot. It was during this drive that they had a shocking encounter. Just as they were navigating this forsaken lane, something large and unusual crossed the road in front of them. The witness described the creature as being at least eight to nine feet tall, lanky, and covered in long, wispy gray fur. Although they were unable to see its face clearly, it appeared indifferent to their presence as it moved into the tree line. Elden, the driver, immediately slammed on the brakes, and the group jumped out of the vehicle in pursuit of the creature. Lorraine attempted to set up a telephoto lens, while Judy rushed into the woods with her cell phone, aiming to capture evidence of the creature. However, despite their efforts, the creature vanished into the trees as they chased it, leaving no trace behind. Panic set in when the narrators realized they had lost sight of each other in the dense woods. The narrator attempted to call out for Elden and Lorraine, but received no response. At this point, he turned to check on Judy, only to find her standing still and seemingly entranced. The gray creature was now mere feet away from her, its claws hovering over her ears as it whispered to her. The narrator felt an overwhelming sense of dread and fear. As he rushed towards Judy, the creature turned its attention towards him. The narrator noted that the creature's eyes glowed with an intense blue light. This display had a paralyzing effect on him, leaving him unable to move, except for his eyelids. His horror intensified as he watched the creature continue to engage with Judy, whose state appeared to grow more altered, as if she were in a trance. After what felt like an eternity but only lasted a few seconds, the blue light subsided, and the narrator regained control of his body. Judy remained in a disoriented state, unresponsive to his calls. He took her hand and led her away from the terrifying site, navigating through the woods in an attempt to retrace their steps back to the car. The journey back proved challenging as the sun had set, and they were lost. The narrator recalled how Judy had lost her phone and camera, leaving them without a way to call for help. Eventually, they managed to reach the road, where they found their vehicle. However, upon approaching the car, the narrator was met with a horrifying sight—a large puddle of blood and what appeared to be bloody fingerprints on the windshield, presumably belonging to Elden. With no keys to the car and unable to hotwire it, they began to walk down the dark service road for what they presumed was miles. As they walked along the shoulder of the road, a white school bus with blacked-out windows approached them. The narrator hoped for assistance and waved down the vehicle, but as it stopped, the scene turned horrific. The door of the bus opened to reveal a red light from within. The driver wore black robes, obscuring their face, and another robed figure emerged, presenting the severed arm of Elden to the narrator, claiming ominously, “the master doesn’t eat hands.” Stunned and horrified, the narrator instinctively punched the figure before they retreated back into the bus, which then drove off into the night. In the aftermath of this traumatic encounter, Judy was found to be in a catatonic state, unable to respond to her surroundings. This incident left the narrator bearing psychological scars from the event, and Judy never fully recovered from the experience. The group had ventured into the woods with the intention of exploring and documenting their findings but instead encountered a nightmarish situation that would haunt them for years to come.
