Well, today on story time, we have a memory of me being a idiot, literally. Or more of a frightened idiot, idk
So I think, if I remember right, this story takes place in summer of 2016 or 2015. Anyways, I was at this retreat with some men and boys from my church, and I was having a blast. Around night, it got really really dark. Like really dark, which is obviously a no-brainer since we were like 30 miles away from a town or city. Anyways, we decided to play Ghost in the Graveyard, and man I swear I had a blast. So we played a few rounds, each time someone getting caught and making it back alive. Though not the specific memory I'm telling, I remember chasing this one guy around the building after he started howling, and remember not realizing he had climbed on the roof, and all. Anyways, we got to the last round before bed. This was the big game, and we all voted on a father and son to be it, cause the son didn't want to be it by himself. So, around 2 minutes of waiting, we trudged off to find them. Around a half and hour later, we had literally searched everywhere, with the help of some flashlights. But, we hadn't gone to the sleeping areas, which were these huge buildings filled with bunks and such. The whole party of us, roughly 10-15 of us, headed and checked the first 3. No sign, and if they weren't in the next, these guys were hiding gods. We checked the last one, and the light was on, which was unlike the others. Thats creepy to be honest. Swat style, we cleared every room til we had 3-4 more left. I, as the brave guy I am (99% of the time), decided to take out of the rooms. What I saw horrified me. Underneath one of the beds, was what I thought, was a doll head, smiling back at me. I looked at it for a minute and then turned back to go back to my team, and report this creepy sight, which was literally kinda nerve wrecking. I got back, and started to say what I had found when all of the sudden, everything went down hill. Turns out, get this, that doll head, was the hiding kids head. They jumped me from behind and I yelled at the top of my lungs and ran into a wall. Yeah, it sucked. Turns out, the kid had heard us, and peaked out from his hiding spot, despite his dad saying to stay put. He saw me, and the two were able to get out and scare us. So in the end, I learned to always make sure to double check, and dart if I see anything screwy.
Well, hope you enjoyed, and time for the next thinga ma bobber
