I always love the generic "witchcraft/devil worship" bs in these kind of stories. That stuff seemed so scary in the 80's and early 90's but just looks dumb now.

This. It's funny actually that people think it exists. Seriously, wtf kind of loser is a "devil worshipper"

Is anybody else only making it to the page where he spends the night with B and the next day they are supposed to go back to the cave? I can't continue past that.

which is to say he never made it back to update us.

Solid read. I've made it to the "Maps" portion now.

After reading through this, it reminded me of a story about my mom. It was around 2003 and my mom was working as a nanny. A family she had worked with for quite sometime had just moved and my mom was doing a bunch of odd jobs before finding something permanent. She gets a job with a well to do family who has a son in a body cast. He jumped off a coffee table or something and broke his tailbone. One day in the middle of the afternoon her and the boy are sitting on the front porch. As they sit there my mom notices an older red car drives around the block a few times. The helper she is, she thinks maybe they are lost. The car returns again and slows down almost to a stop. At this moment my mom swears that some instinct in her body told her to go inside instead of asking if the people need help. This is the weird part cause my mom, like most moms, is one of the most caring and nurturing people I have ever met. She seems to be in the right place at the right time to help others an always does so. Anyway, the car stops and pulls halfway into the driveway. As my mom struggles to maneuver the kid in a body cast inside, 2 black males get out of the car. One is extremely large, the other short and skinny. My mom struggles to lock the door and deadbolt. Right as she does, the men start pounding on the door and jerking the handle. She runs to the phone and dials 911. As she is talking to the police, she peaks through the front window to see the big black man pointing a finger at my mom. He then turns and runs to the car as the smaller guy drives off. My mom sat in the middle of the room panicked until the police came. They took descriptions of the guys and vehicles before leaving. Nothing came of it then, but about a year later we saw two men on the news who had been arrested for burglary. My mom swears that those are the two that came after her. To this day she is still horrified at the thought of what might have happened had she stayed outside.

I've been reading this thread but haven't had any nightmares, thank God. The science experiment and the squidward one are insane.

Just researched the squidward one, its supposedly called "Red Mist" and it is said to be made by a Scottish sponge bob animator, Andrew skinner, whose actually in jail for nine murders. Whether the episode is real or not, it might still be on YouTube, but I'm sure as hell not watching it. I still want to enjoy watching spongebob

Anywho...I'm on a business trip reading these stories in the hotel. I have this weird dream that the hotel has a weird presence in the room, like it wants me to leave. I try to leave, but the door won't shut behind me. In my mind, I'm thinking "I need to get this door shut" I try several times, and then I feel a presence behind me now. I wake up and see a shadowy man in the corner. I can't move due to sleep paralysis. When I'm able to move, he is gone, and I'm bicycle kicking in the air like fricking Liu Kang

The Do Not Disturb tag on the door will fix that. You're welcome.

I believe your story...The Z Man is a Free man, the savages riot, America smiles proudly

My story had Liu Kang references, suck it, Dolt
