The Man In The Woods by Tai Adamkowski My most horrifying memories happened when I was 14 years old……. I was heading to my grandma's for thanksgiving, sense it has been a tradition for many years. I was sleeping and I awoke to a great urge to go to the bathroom and I couldn't wait for the next bathroom break so I pleaded with my parents to stop the car and pull over so I could go. Eventually they gave in and we stopped. I hopped out of the car and headed to the woods on the side of the road, which weren’t far, but i was still worried since it was night. As I entered an old man came up to me from behind and tree and Said “Leave! There is danger here”! I couldn’t hold it any longer so I just went anyway.

The old man said thank you and goodbye and walked out of the tree line never to be seen. I yelled for my mom and dad, but nothing worked. I went to a tree and sat down and cried, eventually fell asleep.
