5 Scary TRUE USA Horror Stories [Illinois, Maryland, Colorado, Oregon, Nevada] Vol.5

[Music] this is part 4 of my American Road Trip series in which I'm narrating one scary story from every US state you can check out the other episodes after this video don't worry you don't have to listen to them in order thank you to everyone who's emailed in their story so far now get ready as we approach the halfway point of our journey down route 6 x6 [Music] I've always been the outdoorsy type and whenever I have some free time I like to get out into nature in this particular day I was hiking in Malheur National Forest in Oregon a beautiful part of the country it was a weekday so I was out there by myself not that that bothered me I was used to solar hiking plus it was broad daylight outside that paired with the beautiful scenery didn't exactly fill me with a deep sense of dread it took me about an hour to drive from my home to the spot I planned to hike in a secluded part of the forest where I figured I'll be alone I parked my vehicle in an area where there was no other cars around hopped out and throw on my backpack then I set off into the woods the sky was blue the air fresh and the trees were lush a perfect day for a walk in the woods no more than two minutes in however I stumbled upon something I wish I hadn't it started with the strange noises a guttural chanting sounded like five or six human voices all speaking gibberish in a melodic fashion I could only hear it faintly in the distance but curiosity got the better of me I made my way through the brush intent on seeing who else was out in the secluded part of the forest that's when I saw them it was like a scene straight out of a David Lynch movie six people standing in a wide circle all their faces covered in poor quality paper mache masks one was what looked like a pig one hair I couldn't even make out what the others were supposed to be none of them were wearing shirts and their torsos were covered in what looked like white paint they were moving their bodies in a strange wave-like motion holding what looked like primitive ceremonial sticks and they must have been off their heads on some sort of chemical ed Lert like they might have been standing around something on the ground but I couldn't make out what it was before I could turn around and get out of there one of them caught sight of me I'll never forget that image it was so bizarre and terrifying all at the same time a man in a bootleg white rabbit mask pointing in my direction and then in unison all these other masked figures turning to look at me I immediately turned and bolted back to my car behind me I could hear the breaking of twigs the rustling of foliage and multiple sets of footsteps the worst part was the screaming wild screaming the masked figures were in hot pursuit chasing close behind me what the hell did they want from the sound of their wails I could hear that they were gaining on me I ditched the bag on my back to lighten the load I was fit enough to outrun those lunatics but not with that thing slowing me down in 30 seconds I was back at my car in another ten seconds more of them had appeared from other parts of the surrounding forest couldn't have been less than twenty of them now a menagerie of psychos all throwing rocks and sticks at my vehicle charging directly at it the fastest ones clawing at the windows I fool ordered in Reverse and managed to back out of there just before my car was surrounded I spun the vehicle around and slam my foot on the accelerator as I sped down the muddy trail I could see the masked figures in my mirrors they were still running off to me still screaming but thankfully losing distance when I was far enough away they sidelined back into the trees and out of my vision that was the last I saw of them I debated whether or not to report the incident in the end I decided I would I told the authorities what had happened to me and they told me that they checked the place out never heard back from them I don't think they took my call too seriously which honestly bothers me a few people have gone missing in those woods over the years he had been nice if they saw this as a potential lead I get what I told them must have sounded crazy but still for the sake of the missing you know I have no idea what I stumbled into on that hike but my gut tells me it was some crazy type of ritual this only happened to me last year so if you're listening to this and you're planning to head out to Mel here National Forest please take precautions because there's something strange going on out in those woods it's no secret in my family that my grandpa used to be part of the mob back when the casino started booming he was working out in Las Vegas protecting his mafia family's interests what his exact role was I can't say for sure but he was sort of a mid-level guy not a kingpin not a grunt now in telling the story I don't expect you to feel any sympathy for the guy he did some bad things in his youth that's for sure but he did make amends later in life he made a series of confessions to my father believing that if he took his secrets to the grave he'd be doomed to hell he was never proud of his past and he wanted to repent a little I suppose my father then passed those tales unto me there are several stories I could share with you here but I'll just tell one from his time out in Nevada one which if true I find particularly disturbing a few other gangsters in my grandpa's crew had been caught stealing from their boss shaving a little extra off the side and pocketing it for themselves and this wasn't their first offense and the boss wanted to make an example of them the poor guys weren't the smartest and didn't even realize they'd been rumbled until it was too late the three of them were rounded up bound and gagged and tossed into car trunks about 14 other guys drove the mountain to the middle of the desert my grandpa was there with them riding in the same car as the boss far from civilization they popped the trunks and dragged the three men out my grandpa's boss gave some speech about how they had wronged him and how they were now gonna pay the price he untied their hands and feet and tossed each of them a shovel told them to start digging three deep holes since all of the bosses henchmen were armed they didn't exactly have a choice in the matter the men tried to plead with the boss but nobody could understand what they were saying through the gags in their mouths my grandpa didn't want to be a part of this he knew these guys after all still there was nothing he could really do if he spoke out against the boss or tried to leave then they'd likely be a fourth hole out in that desert the men finished digging their pets which as instructed by the boss who were much deeper than they were wide then at gunpoint he had them get inside their makeshift tombs the other henchmen began to fill in the holes with earth and sand compressing it all tightly together leaving only their three heads poking out of the ground they couldn't move and they couldn't talk well they could do more spray according to my grandpa the boss then placed the bottle of water about ten feet in front of them with the top off this is the only thing out here that'll keep you alive he said and you're gonna watch as it evaporates in front of you and that is if the buzzards don't pick your eyes out first then they all hop back in their cars and left the three men they're buried in the scorching heat on the way back to Vegas the boss sat silently looking out the car window he turned to my grandpa for water he said what about it bus I'm just thinking if one of them and it's just to shake himself free I wonder if he'll share it it didn't really matter my grandpa thought those men were so far out in that desert that they'd never make it back alive anyway it was just a question of how long they lasted my grandpa managed to escape his life of crime a few years later his wife my grandma had just given birth to my father and even though he was still a young man he figured it was time for a fresh thought he never spoke out against his former colleagues yes for obvious reasons and somehow he managed to escape without being whacked must have made some kind of deal for his future family sake I'm glad he did here's a glitch in the matrix that's kept me up for more than a few nights for as long as I can remember I've had a memory that apparently never even happened to me it's extremely vivid almost like I can feel what's happening in the memory itself whenever I think about it the memory stayed the same since I was a kid it starts with this horrible pale man looking in at me through a window his skin is so thin it's almost translucent his eyes her a sickly yellow and their sunken deep in a skull his whole face is emaciated him bony and his mouth is contorted into a menacing smile in a flash he's in the same room as me I don't know where we are some sort of dark featureless place but it's just the two of us and I have no idea why I'm there the pale man slowly approaches me with his arms outstretched and I'm overcome with this feeling of pure fear then pure pain next thing I know I'm in a hospital on a stretcher being wheeled into the emergency room I can't really feel the lower half of my body and everything's a little blurry the doctors have concerned looks on their faces and one of them keeps repeating stay with me Tom stay with me Tom the strange thing is my name's not Tom it's Jason I look up at the doctor talking to me I still remember his face like it was yesterday paper thin lips a brown moustache piercing blue eyes a big mole over his eyebrow the scene goes on like that until I lose consciousness then everything goes black that's where the memory ends as a child I brought the memory up to my parents they assured me I had never been rushed to the hospital let alone to the emergency room throughout the years I'd periodically bring it back up whenever it popped into my head still they'd always tell me I was just remembering some weird nightmare or something for the longest time I put it down to me watching some kind of scary movie before bed and my young impressionable mind confusing a dream with reality when I was 18 my family and I moved to Chicago I had a minor medical problem that needed monitoring and I needed to make a trip to the local hospital I was sitting in the waiting room surrounded by a handful of other people an old lady a mother and a child and a man with his head burrowed in a newspaper eventually the doctor came out and called my name I looked up at him and I couldn't believe my eyes it was the doctor from my false memory the same thin lips piercing blue eyes even the same distinctive mole over his eyebrow he looked older sure his moustache was more gray than brown now and there were a few deep wrinkles on his skin but there was no mistaking it if that memory really never happened to me then how is that even possible my heart began to race as I stood up and moved towards him with a reassuring smile he ushered me into the examination room now in private an up close I was able to get an even better look at the guy it was him all right he wasn't just a character from a dream at all but if that experience from my memory had never really happened how could I have known this man's face wide had been stuck in my head for my entire life during his examination I told him he looked familiar he assured me we had never met I grew up in Texas and he'd never even been there not to mention there was no record of me as a patient there and the doctor said he had a keen eye for faces I figured it was some kind of weird coincidence or sort of a mind glitch my brain must have been making a connection that wasn't really there still I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy the doctor finished up his examination told me everything looked good he then gave me a smile and showed me the door I walked out into the waiting room and the doctor called his next patient it was the man with his head in his newspaper sitting just to the right of me he stood up and towered over the doctor and I couldn't have been less than six foot six he came to pass me and I looked up at him though sickly sunken eyes those emaciated cheeks that cellophane like skin it was him the menacing figure from my memory the doctor looked older and that this guy this guy hadn't changed hadn't aged a day but it's what he said to me as we passed that's stuck with me the most he looked down at me and smiled that contorted smile good to see you again Tom my heart slammed against my ribcage he entered the examination room and the doctor closed the door I couldn't believe the words that had come out of his mouth Tom he called me Tom how why who are those two men I have no idea what to make of this I live in a rural part of Colorado on a farm close to the infamous Riverdale Road a lot of strange goings-on along that road oh let me tell you people have claimed to have seen all kinds of apparitions while traveling down it one part of the road even leads off to a mansion that was once the headquarters of a satanic cult some folks say that the gates to hell are located there by the chicken coop but that doesn't really have anything to do with this story at least I hope it doesn't I must have been 14 years old at the time doing some schoolwork at home when all of a sudden my brother came running in hollering said that a mangy dog had wandered onto our property my dad and I went out to take a look with him lo and behold there was a humongous Doberman standing about 20 yards from our house completely motionless it didn't look healthy at all Dobermans are almost always back with patches of brown this one was off-color gray and covered in blisters it looked as if it was decomposing despite still being alive if only barely its size and they weren't like a live creatures they were stark white like it was blind or something no pupil saw color at all it was panting heavily and just looked at us begging to be put out of his misery we had no idea where it could have come from there wasn't another house near ours for as far as the eye could see and of the houses that were nearby well none of them had a Doberman my dad didn't want the thing to suffer and he certainly didn't want it spreading disease to our livestock so he got his rifle and told us to go back inside we knew what he meant we went back and switched on the TV no more than a few seconds later we heard a shot ring out from the outside my dad then dug a grave and buried the poor creature in a patch of unused land away from our house that night we all woke up to the sound of aggressive barking from outside and that was odd we got up to check what it was outside our house was another Doberman looking identical to the one that had wandered onto our property in the day this one too was diseased looking missing half its fur and covered in lumps where were these dogs coming from like the one before this one was just standing motionless waiting in the exact same place what would different this time though were the eyes they were still stark white but they weren't like before they were shiny the color of the moon like they were glowing they stood out against the darkness of the night where are you poor creatures coming from my dad asked it rhetorically look away boys he said we ignored his command after staring at the beasts for a few moments my dad raised his rifle again and fired at the animal's head it collapsed to the ground get back to bed he told us and we did as he said this time but couldn't get much sleep that went to dig another grave beside the one that he had made earlier but that's the thing the grave he dug for the other dog was empty it had been dug out from the inside the donkey just shot it was the same dog as before he placed the strange animal back in the empty hole filled it back up with earth and retired to bed we all put it down to the creatures will to live next morning when we all woke up we went to check on the grave the damn thing was empty dug out from the inside again tracks leading off to the woodland near our house after that we never saw the dog again though to this day about once every three months we hear that same barking coming from the woods near our house occasionally when we do will look outside the window and see one of our farm animals standing in the exact same place that dog stood just watching us waiting for the gun sometimes it's a pig sometimes just a hen but no matter what they always look decomposed they never move and at night they all have those bright moon like eyes had to put down at least a dozen of them over the years I don't know what that dog brought to our farm but it ain't going away I was a trucker at the time and was driving alone down the i-70 in Maryland heading west must have been 3 a.m. real quiet hardly any other cars on the road I had a headache and was feeling a little sleepy so I cranked down the window a notch and turned off the radio up ahead in the distance I saw a couple of figures meandering from a bank on the left into the road luckily I spotted them early and I had time to slow down I couldn't make out any details about them only that it was two people shambling towards my truck really slowly dragging their feet worried that something might be wrong I brought my track to a complete stop it was close enough now to see that there was something not quite right about them I could hear them groaning and gurgling since my window was open and could just about make out that something was really off about them their silhouettes didn't look right I got a little closer and my headlights illuminated them I could see them clearly now in front of me well what looked like - god damn zombies one male one female both completely covered in red the male slower jaw was hanging on by a thread they both have bone fragments sticking out of their clothes their arms were clearly broken flailing at their sides much of their skin was missing like it had been scraped off or something the woman had hardly any skin on her face at all they were coming directly for me and got close enough for me to get a good look at their eyes I had never seen red her eyes as it turns out there was nothing supernatural going on at all the reality of the situation was far far worse turns out that they were a couple who had got into a seriously bad car accident they were the driver and the front seat passenger one of their tyres burst at the worst possible moment and their car went flying literally flying off the road the pair of them initially survived the crash though the same couldn't be said for the two people in the back seat due to shock blood loss and confusion they both clambered out of the vehicle and started walking back along the road away from the wreckage thought it was the end of the goddamn world when I saw her I sure as hell was the end of theirs I hope to never see anything as horrifying as that again that was a real horror messed me up
