Dragovich kelpy PHA folk Europe is ripe with mythical creatures and dark folklore creeping out to children with cautionary tales before bedtime is their expertise but these are more than just myths you see many people of Europe have seen these creatures on their homeland strange and horrifying creatures but will have you begging for your sanity these are ten strange creatures seen in Europe if you want your story narrated shared with us at dark stories dark [Music] there's something wrong with my dog from Swedish hunter I'm 18 years old and I'm from karana Sweden it's about as far north as you can get and I've lived here since I was six my family is originally from Finland but we moved to my granddad's house here when he passed away even if I haven't lived here my whole life I know our land like the back of my hand and there's a lot of it we inherited miles of forest and my brother and I have turned basically every rock we could find my dad's an experienced hunter and he lives in a small cabin in the woods during hunting season we rarely see him until that's over well when I was around 14 I was finally allowed to come with him it took a lot of convincing since he sees his hunting as relaxing so he prefers to be alone but I'd gotten pretty good at hunting myself so I was finally allowed to come along it was autumn so it wasn't that cold but I remember we spent the nights huddled together in front of an open fire we had a really nice time for about a week fishing and tracking animals in the woods we had brought along our 1 year old Norwegian L count named titi and it was her first hunting trip we were both excited to see just how well she'd do one misty morning when we let her go she took off like a rocket tracking something around the house a few times before bolting into the forest we followed her for a few hours eventually ending up in a very gorgeous clearing where we sat down to drink some hot chocolate as we were chatting about nothing in particular we hear her barking again which meant she'd found something so my dad told me to pack up as he ran ahead I wasn't worried as I saw him disappear into the tree line I knew the forest better than anyone I thought I was walking out towards the tree line after packing up pulling out some loose strings for my sleeve as a shot ring out which made me jump luckily my dad had reminded me to wear my earmuffs I got excited I practically ran towards the sound but remembered that my dad had told me to stay away if he started to shoot so I stopped and I stayed in my place for a while until I heard another one ring out and then another there was a total of five shots fired until titi stopped barking and let out a loud scream it was like nothing I'd heard before I'd stepped on her tail before once and I heard her whimper but the sound she let out that day it sounded like a strangled cry from a person I knew something was wrong I began to scream immediately for my dad I could hear the sounds of footsteps approaching that my dad came running through the forest carrying titi in his arms he had covered her in his jacket which was covered in red I barely remember what happened after because I was crying so hard we ended up in dad's truck and drove off to the vet they took her in as my dad drove me home hugging me as I continued to cry the entire day titi did not get to come home until a few days later and when she dead she had bandages all over her face she was really sad and whimpered if anyone got near her snout I didn't care though I was so relieved so happy to have our dog back home and okay my dad told me she had been kicked by a moose and that her nose was basically crushed it was bent 90 degrees to her right and she'd lost most of her teeth poor girl I still feel bad thinking about dad having to feed her through a tube as she held up she eventually did get better and life went on again as normal she recovered nicely and I was allowed to come along on more trips to the forest but now starting about a month ago strange things began happening and it's scaring my whole family on our last trip we found tracks that look like they came from a giant moose now we're used to moose walking around our property and we know how big they can get but these tracks were so huge that even my dad didn't follow them he said they were twice as big as the biggest tracks he'd ever seen and Matt was saying something during the night we'd hear moose calls really close to the house and we'd find tracks closer and closer to our home one day my brother had been playing outside with his friends when they suddenly started screaming outside just by the edge of the forest stood a massive moose dad grabbed his rifle and pointed it towards it but the creature just stood there staring us down without even flinching it only moved when my dad fired at it and even then it slowly turned back into the forest and walked away like it had all the time in the world tt ran after it suddenly which was obviously dangerous as the moose was colossal and didn't even seem a bit scared of any of us let alone her we tried to call her back but she did not listen and ran into the forest we looked for her tried to call her back for hours but we did not find her for two days she ended up coming back home on her own but honestly I don't think it's the same dog that ran off not only does she seem skinnier after just two days but she acts differently even after her severe injuries TT was always cuddly obedient but now she stays alone and keeps to herself she doesn't even sleep in my bed anymore which she would do every night nowadays she just wanders all around all night and sniffs around our bedroom doors sometimes we hear her growl and make this gargling sound like she's going to puke but when we check on her she's just fine she doesn't listen to our commands anymore even when we bribe her with ham or meat ham used to be her favorite too my parents tried to get me not to worry saying that she's probably just exhausted from being lost but we need to give her more time well I did we all did but she kept acting weirder and stranger she stopped eating her food altogether she began to limp but after bringing her two vets they never found anything that would cause her to limp no reason for her to walk strangely and then her fur began falling out she grew scabs all over her body she'd snarl whenever anyone tried to touch her and we were scared of even going close to her and she'd snap at us a few days ago after having a few drinks with some friends I came home and fell asleep I had the most horrifying dream I dreamt that I was in our forest trying to find my way back home but I became more and more lost I knew that I knew my way home but it was like the ground kept changing around me I could hear the sound of large hubs stomping around as I began to panic then I heard TT bark in the distance and then heard her scream just like the day when she was attacked then I suddenly found myself in my parents bedroom standing in the doorway as they slept in their bed then TT crawled out from under the bed but her front legs were hairy human arms with long fingers that scratched the floor as she emerged she looked disturbing her teeth dug into her lower jaw and her eyes were glowing bright red I wanted to scream but I couldn't do anything just watch as she crawled onto their bed then she stood up on hind legs which grew in length she slowly became an old man with wrinkly gray skin with eyes that glowed red he or it turned to me opening its mouth which was just a large black hole with long sharp teeth it began to growl at me but it sounded like a dog's growl just off-key it's hard to describe it was kind of like auto-tune but really really off-key it was then that I woke up screaming my sheets drenched in sweat but the worst part TT was standing in the doorway she was watching me sniffing the air as I screamed for my mother I cried in her arms for an hour before she managed to calm me down she reminded me that it was just a weird dream and that helped me calm down a bit but TT kept getting worse and I'm having nightmares like that every night and the most recent one I see T T's body heaving on the ground as her twisted snout bled into her throat choking her and every time I have one of these nightmares I wake up to see TT standing in the doorway it's like she's watching me and enjoying these nightmares I have or maybe she's once giving me these nightmares by now we've taken TT to several different fats including one six hours away they tried to treat her for parasites bacteria and a bunch of other things but nothing makes her better if anyone knows what this is what's going on with my dog I'd like to know I think that giant moose thing has something to do with it I think it was the thing that attacked my dog and I think it came back for her the Maidenhead monster from King vulture I've seen something you would not believe I live in England and this all started when I was coming home from school I always come and go to school on a minibus listening to music one day as I was looking out the window passing the time we weren't far from the school when I saw something disturbing there was a creature or thing in a weird walking pose it was staring right at me I only saw it for a few seconds but I could tell right away that it wasn't human even if it appeared to be pretending to be one it had no neck almost as if its head was fused to its body it didn't have fingers either none that I could see anyway it had legs but the legs were like a deer or Alex I remember doing a double-take my mouth dropping open and wishing I could go back to see it but it was gone in seconds as the minibus drove away quickly rounding a corner causing the thing to vanish from my sight I wasn't so much scared as I was just confused you know I saw something that didn't really make sense a few days later I saw the same thing again but it was crossing the road only like 10 or 12 meters away from the car I was in I had the window open and I could hear the sickening noise it made it was constantly screaming like a person in pain it was a very menacing sound one that sent chills all over my body this time I was happy I was driving away when I got home that day I swear I saw something - past our house but maybe I was just paranoid it could have been one of those mean cats that kept attacking our cat when I went to bed that night I woke up to the sound of faint screaming again at exactly midnight it was the exact same scream - that that thing had made I was too terrified to look out the window when my mother and I have to go get my big sister from work at night I always get the feeling that I'll see it again that it's just watching me from the darkness but at least I haven't seen that thing since who knows if it's still out there if you live in Britain do your best to avoid the maidenhead monster who knows what it's capable of vampire encounter from anonymous [Music] I live in the UK in Newcastle near the countryside so usually it's quite peaceful and nice but this experience would change the way I saw this place forever my experience happened back in August 11th of 2016 at around 10:30 p.m. my brother my friend and I were out walking in a field we went into the woods to sit and walk around just chatting and hanging out around then we heard a twig snap we looked and saw a woman just walking through the woods as well I thought nothing of it we often saw other people out here walking around now this woman looked quite young appearing to be in her early twenties again we just ignored her but soon we realized that the woman just kept walking back and forth so my friend worried about her mental state went over to ask her if she was okay the woman said to him that she was just keeping an eye on us we thought this was weird so we just kept going but she continued to follow us we stopped in this time I went over to tell her to get the hell away from us this was a mistake because when the woman lifted up her head and looked at me there was now blood dripping from her mouth her eyes were dark red and bloodshot when she stared at me I felt paralyzed I couldn't move no matter how hard I tried I regained control of myself only after my friend yanked me by the hand and turned me around we all began to run and I could see my brother far ahead of us almost out of the woods at this point but I couldn't see the woman I kept getting this feeling that she was right behind us though my heart was pounding out of my chest I couldn't believe what I had seen I believed in the supernatural I've always enjoyed folk tales and stories about it but I never thought once that I'd see something like this I thought she was going to get us I thought we were going to die we had nothing to defend ourselves with so we ran as far and as fast as we were able to until we all nearly dropped out of breath and exhausted when I looked around there was no sign of the woman so we quietly but quickly walked out of the woods we went back to my house sneaking past my mother because I knew she wouldn't believe this story be careful in the woods of New Castle because I think a vampire lives out there three fairy encounters from North Wales part one from El Wilco 77 I've always believed in the Fae and I'd like to share with you three faerie experiences that have happened to me while I spent six months in North Wales on a study exchange the first experience happened in March of 2018 and at the Great Orme mines and the town of Holland Edna the Great Orme was a late Neolithic copper mine and as I was studying archaeology our lecture took my class there for a field trip we went out of seasons so there were no other tourists and one of the resident archaeologists gave us a tour through the underground complex it's amazing you can still see the marks where people excavated the shafts using deer antler pecks inside the mine there is one of the largest pre-industrial age man-made caverns in the world while our guide was talking about the cavern another student and I were standing further up the mineshaft towards an opening in the cavern now we were told not to go off the path because it can be quite dangerous rocks can fall and there are hidden shafts but the guy I was standing with asked me whether or not the guide would let us have a look in the larger cavern I said it couldn't hurt to ask but probably not because of the rules he said that he was just going to have a little peek inside the cavern I told him to be careful then just as I said this he began to step inside the cavern when a huge heavy rock came crashing down from the ceiling right where he was going to walk we both jumped back and looked at each other the commotion had attracted the attention of the rest of the group and the guide asked what had happened I told him that the rock nearly came down on our heads but it didn't look like a rockslide as only one came down the guide laughed at us and simply said the knockers were telling you to not to go in there I've heard of mine fairies before but I wanted to pick his brain so I asked if he had any experiences with them he said sometimes when you're exploring the mine your tools and food will go missing even when you're alone then show up in another place on other occasions uncanny archaeology discoveries will be found in odd locations where nothing would be expected like a clay lantern that was used to light the tunnels for the miners four thousand years ago being found in exactly the spot it had been left soot from the flame still blackening the wall behind it part two or the second encounter happened not two weeks after the Great Orme mine encounter I was camping in the thick mountain pine forests around the village of bets visi code with two friends we were staying in a small clay hut in a little gully not too far from a place called fairy Falls where it said that water fairies dwell it was early morning at around 6 a.m. my friends were still asleep in the hut and I had decided to go for a walk in the woods out of nowhere I heard these bugle horns the kind of horn that horse mounted hunting parties use I'll mention here that the forest around the hut was extremely thick and the terrain was quite steep so it would be impossible for horses to go through it there was a small track further up the mountain but we were so remote that not many people came out this way it seemed odd that a hunting party would be in this kind of terrain that is so ill suited for horses and had low visibility for spotting prey also these days fox hunting is almost entirely illegal in the UK unless on a private estate and we were in a national forest after I heard these horns suddenly a large white dog with red ears bounded out of the pines jumped the fence and ran over to me it was definitely a hound similar to a fox sound but not quite the same it was friendly though and came up for a sniff before quickly leaving me to sniff around the clearing the hut was in looking for the scent of its quarry then I caught sight of more white dogs all with red ears running through the forest undergrowth all barking as they had now caught the scent of their prey I didn't fully see their quarry but I caught a flash of something white even more white than the dogs as it ran down the steep gully edge it was gone too quickly for me to make out what it was but it almost looked like it was floating I could hear the horns getting closer and closer but I never saw the hunters only those strange-looking hounds the thing is white dogs with red ears have a very specific place in Welsh folklore they are the Gwen nonlin or hounds of the Otherworld and they belong to the king of the fairies Gwen op nude they are also said to escort the dead to the other world as well as hunt wrongdoers to the ground were they actually the Gwyn knop nudes hounds and I can't say I didn't see Gwen himself but it was certainly an odd and eerie scene so far out in a thick forest part 3 this final fairy encounter happened on the night of bel cana even made a balcony is an ancient festival heralding in the first day of spring many Wiccans and pagans celebrated today but the festival is much older than any new-age rendition of it it is meant to be one of the days of the year the other day is saw mine or Halloween when the veil between our world and the other world is at its weakest I was at a stone circle in the town of Bangor on the straights that separated mainland wells from the island of Anglesey the last stronghold of the Druids we had decided to have a little balcony party so we were playing some music and drinking a heap of wine before we got into the wine though I poured a little on to the earth as an offering to the Fae I'm not a Wiccan more really a pagan but I thought it'd be fun to do anyway is the sunset tended grew dark I was looking out onto the bear trees near the edge of the stone circle and noticed little flickering lights in the tree canopy at first I thought they were car headlights across the Straits but they didn't move like car lights they bobbed up and down and when I looked directly at them they vanished because they were in the canopy I thought they could have been the lights of a helicopter but it was silent no telltale sound of the rotors now I will say that I had been drinking some wine but I definitely wasn't drunk I wasn't sure of what I was seeing though so I asked my friends if they had seen them too none of them had and I kept pointing them out and insisting that they were there but no one saw them not even the self described which of the group because no one but bees seemed to see them I let it go and watch them until they simply faded away this to me was undeniably a Fae experience I saw them I wasn't drunk or high I just wished someone else had seen them too this time though I had no particular idea of which day it may have been I've had plenty of other paranormal and unexplainable experiences in my six months in Wales I'll share them one day as they are a quite strange I'll say that even though I've experienced these things in my life I have never had so much activity happen in such a short space of time as when I came back to my ancestral homeland mythical creature in an abandoned village from me Carlo oh one I'm a twenty year old guy from Croatia I think I was 12 or 13 though when this happened we were kids full of adventurous spirit one day we were told by my friend Martin's mom that there was an abandoned church somewhere in the forest around my town she used to play there when she was young so me Martin and another friend of mine named Luka accepted the challenge to go find and explore the church now my town is located in the rural part of our country and it's surrounded on three sides by a forest and once signed with a meadow there's also an abandoned village they're called Dara Tina and that is where we three went it's not entirely abandoned but I think only three people live there in three separate houses so dear Tina is surrounded by forests on all sides and it's connected with gravel roads we came in ready to investigate we came to one point where the road was too rough to ride bikes on so Martin and Luka went to check further on foot while I stayed to guard their bikes I wasn't scared because there was no legend of anything scary in this town or around it and I'd never really heard any weird stories from out here but not much longer after they left I began to hear these loud screams at first they sounded like dogs that were being attacked and I was beginning to get nervous I didn't know what to do in that kind of situation I remember thinking maybe these dogs were attacking my friends I wanted to grab a nearby brick and go help them the moment I'd gathered the courage to actually do something I saw the two of them running back now yelling at me to run we escaped and when we thought we were safe I asked them about what was going on they seemed pretty shocked by something they asked me if I had heard those screaming sounds and I said yes that I thought it was dogs but they said they weren't dogs at all Lucas said that it sounded like it was coming from an abandoned house in the woods Martin said that it felt like something didn't want us to find the church they said that something had been chasing them out of those woods but they never got a good look at it we quickly wrote home on our bikes the next day Martin came to me talking about a legend he had researched recently called the Dragovic or howler the legend says it is a creature made from an unborn baby that can't be destroyed or killed until he finds his own piece and the descriptions of its howl matched perfectly with the sound we heard that day like canid howls mixed with child's cries and we would never return to that abandoned village again the fireplace from Green pansy 67 when I was a child I used to live in an old Victorian house in the UK my bedroom had a huge fireplace like you would see in a living room but because it was Victorian they used to have them in the master bedrooms as well I would share this room with my big sister and was about 10 and I was 8 at the time of the incident we used to sleep in this huge room on a bunk bed opposite the fireplace about 6 feet away from our bed we were used to hearing noises from it often from the pigeons that nestled in the chimney as it hadn't been used for years we would occasionally see twigs and other nesting material fall from the chimney it wasn't something that bothered us too much we basically grew up with it on the other hand I was always afraid of the dark it would keep me awake for hours before bed as I always felt like I was never alone there of course at the age of 8 I knew very little about the paranormal and I used to assume it would be monsters that would get me in my sleep one night I'd been lying in bed for a while unable to sleep I could hear my sister snoring gently above me on the top bunk although that wasn't what was bothering me I was facing the wall away from the fireplace when I suddenly felt an enormous surge of Terror the kind you hear about when you listen to ghost stories but of course at that age I just knew the feeling was wrong so I pulled the covers over my head tightly leaving my feet poking out at the bottom I lay there for what seemed like only a few minutes holding my breath and trying to be as still as a dormouse I could hear breathing right next to my face though from the other side of the blanket and it made me want to scream but I couldn't I was too terrified all of a sudden I felt something sit on the bed next to me it wasn't too heavy but it sure as hell was heavier than me I said as still as I could trying not to cry from fear as I lay there still as could be the thing whatever it was grasped onto my big toe and pulled on it in my fright I yanked the covers off I was face to face with a huge black figure the closest thing I could relate it to would be the Grim Reaper without a scythe the creature wore a cloak with a sort of pointed hood on its head and although it was hard to tell I knew it was no human and as soon as it saw me it floated out from my bottom bunk and without as much as a whisper it faded into the chimney and was gone I was so horrified that I jumped out of bed and climbed up into my sister's top bunk I didn't move a muscle all night in the morning I asked my sister if she had seen anything my sister said she hadn't and so I asked my mother what she thought it was she was actually quite believing of my story saying that ever since they had moved in she had often seen out of the corner of her eye a presence moving from the back door to the pantry in a straight line needless to say I've never forgotten that thing in my bed and now I never sleep with my feet hanging out of the covers anymore as it creeps me out just to think about it well I couldn't find another two news stories in time to complete this video but I do have two juicy stories that match today's theme from back in 2017 so odds are you haven't heard these before enjoy Welsh woods monster submitted by Nathan I live in South Wales in a little village just outside of Cardiff I don't want to name the place specifically but there is a very popular singer from this particular town also anybody who knows Wales will know that the outside cities can be quite rural and a mixture of fields forests and mountains that quickly will merge into old mining villages one day I was on my way home from an 11 hour shift as this happened in winter it had been dark for hours despite only being 8 o'clock in the evening I had decided to take a detour as my regular route was blocked due to an accident and it was the worst decision I've ever made I decided to go over the mountain that leads to my local village the road goes up a steep incline that cuts in on itself and he continues to go up and up there are no streetlights but there are road markings that keep you on track after about 10 minutes I make it to the top of this mountain there is nothing notably strange at this point until I start to drive the slow incline down towards the deep forest I'm about 30 seconds into the drive down when I realize there are no other sounds than the rattling of my engine and the radio it was strange even though I couldn't hear anything outside of the car it felt like I was being told that something isn't right I don't know why but I stopped the car in order to listen to the sounds that should be there the trees were dark and still and I could barely see past the tree line either side of me in front of me my car headlights brightened up the road ahead I turned off my engine as I found it difficult to concentrate on the sounds outside of the car with the engine running and then it was silent there wasn't a sound no crickets noises or birds flapping their wings there was not even the sound of the wind blowing it was like all sound in that moment was non-existent and it filled me with dread and then I heard it help someone cried through the darkness of the forest help me but this voice was distorted like if someone played it on a record player it sounded crackle II but faded out towards the end of every cry for help it was so wrong I jumped out of the car and I tried to focus on what I could see past the trees my heart was racing I started to sweat and I was breathing so heavily I felt my heart was coming up through my mouth and I was frozen with blind fear and then I saw it it was a man or so I thought they were disproportionate with long skinny legs and arms and I saw a bright red eyes appear and disappear as if it was blinking and looking straight at me it seemed to walk or glide towards me with his arms swinging back and forth I don't know because my head was fuzzy at the time I felt confused and afraid I couldn't believe what I was seeing as it got closer I could see its face and this thing was the farthest from human it had little notable facial features this creature stopped and it opened its mouth wide and wider wider than anything had ever seen before and it let out the most terrifying scream ever heard it was so loud that it felt like he'd dug into my very existence and shook me to the core that was the moment I shook my head and I realized what was going on instantly I jumped into the car and tried to start the engine my hand was shaking so much I could barely turn the key after what seemed like a lifetime I managed to put the car into first gear and I drove off I Drive down the road and check my mirror and that thing is standing in the road not moving not making a sound just standing there when I got home I locked all the doors and I cried for hours until I finally fell asleep eventually someone introduced me to scary horror stories and I ended up doing my own research I stumbled upon tales about skinwalkers and that's what I believe I saw whales are not it could have only been that I have had nightmares ever since and I've always thought that one day I will see that thing again needless to say I have not gone near that area ever since scratches outside submitted by Annika P [Music] I've been living in Cornwall for just over five years now I've learned and heard of loads of different spirits and monsters in Cornish folk law well I haven't fortunately had a few experiences and actually have stories to tell about four years ago I learned about the Beast of Bodmin it is supposedly a large black Wildcat who lives on the moors of Bodmin it's been said to have killed masses of livestock in the early 1900s and has turned its attention to people every once in a while I've always been interested in cryptozoology so this kind of thing really grabbed my attention and that's how I began doing my own research after quite some time I kind of got bored by the idea when the sighting of this creature began to dry up so I lost interest in it for a while well that was until I went on a camping trip with my family and some friends I spent a couple of nights in an open field near the home of these family friends it was very fun and we were all having a good time we just relaxed and shared a few stories by the campfire having drinks that is until one of my friends let's call him Charlie started telling us about how some of the trees in the neighboring woods had large scratches up them up to six feet up the trunks we all threw theories back and forth and that's when Charlie brought up the Beast of Bodmin being the scaredy cat I am I decided to go off to bed and ignore the conversation taking place outside my tent the night was thankfully uneventful and we woke up early for a hike on the moors we had been given time to look around standing stones and some other landmarks then Charlie took me and my family to a small set of woods after about 10 minutes of walking we came to a group of trees most of which had what I thought was claw marks I knew what he was trying to show us but both me and my younger brother let's call him ally didn't want to stay around for too long I'll be honest I was scared so after much pushing my mom me and Ally left and we started walking back towards camp the thought of having a huge man-eating beast practically next door to our camp gave me chills and it made me feel physically sick nervous I wanted to just go home I didn't feel safe out there on the last day of our camping trip Ollie and I decided we would stay together in the same tent we were still really scared and did not want to sleep alone we both lay there and were fast asleep and only a few minutes my brother was only 8 or 9 at the time but I felt a lot more comfortable knowing I had someone by my side but this temporary feeling of security quickly laughed at about 2:00 in the morning I woke up and needed to use the bathroom so I made my way slowly out of the tent trying my best to not wake up Ollie and I did my business to my surprise I saw the glare of eyes in the torchlight now I was half asleep and I thought it was my dog Bella so I called her over but immediately after I heard this low grumble and instantly I shut up and reassessed the situation I realized after a moment I was looking at a large black shape not a small white dog I did not wait around trying to find out what it was going to do I ran and jumped into the open tent and right unto my sleeping brother I quickly zipped up the tent and grabbed hold of a now really angry and sleepy eyed Ollie he later told me that he had been trying to push me away tried to ask me what was going on but I guess I wasn't really listening I spent about half an hour listening out there for the noise again but thank God it never happened all he eventually fell back to sleep but I knew I wouldn't be able to not until I was back home and safe I'd never been so happy as to see the sunrise the next day and to hear my parents waking up even still I could not get the image of this massive black shadow in the woods a shadow that was twice my size at least Beast of Bodmin or not there was some sort of monster in the woods something that nearly had me cornered in the middle of the night anyway the next day needless to say I did not tell anyone knowing my family I knew that if they hadn't seen what I'd seen then they would not believe me I didn't even believe me and I still don't sometimes or maybe that's the denial we got home and I tossed away any thoughts of the camping trip trying not to remember the creature I saw in the woods I didn't think I'd ever have to remember or think about that trip again until three nights after our return home because I was sitting in bed watching TV having hot chocolate when I first heard it the pat-pat-pat sound of something running back and forth in front of my house it came again and again night after night no matter how much I tried to ignore it so I observed the sound and I realized it did not sound anything like a dog or a badger not even a fox all of these animals have non-retractable claws which means I would have heard the sound of claws scraping against the road but I didn't and it was far too big to have just been a cat it was very heavy the patting sound of paws brushing away stones and dirt when I gathered the courage to look outside I was struck by the familiar shape out on the road was that same silhouette I had seen a dark figure whose fur blended in with the night a feline form that was far too big to be any house cat it was stalking along the road yellow eyes beaming under the moonlight immediately I stepped away from the window fear enveloping me I could hear the sounds continue as I walked away and they continued for several nights after that but after a few weeks it just stopped I still have no idea what it was to this day nor will I claim it to be anything but I know what I heard and I know what I saw there is some sort of creature out there something larger than the natural wildlife something that looks predatory and dangerous I'll be sure to keep these events in mind when and if I ever go camping again and I really hope if anyone comes to Cornwall and goes camping here that you take my experiences to heart just be careful out there Europe is a vast and diverse continent each border comes with such a drastic change in cultures at times you step away from one nation of rich mythology to step into another that is so much different and often just as terrifying needless to say if you want to live in a place where there's always a new monster to be scared of Europe is the place to go good night if you enjoyed this episode of darkness prevails be sure to like share comment and subscribe if you have a story
