Based on some horror stories I've read in the past.

November 27, 1987:

Brian, Jonas, David, and Diane were getting ready to go camping in their local forest. It was exciting for them since this was their first time, their anticipation growing inside of them. They got their equipment ready and left the house by 3:00 P.M.

As they arrived in the forest, Brian volunteered to set up the tents. Jonas helped as well, David prepared the campfire, and Diane was reading a book.

That's when she saw it.

Completely bewildered, Diane put down her book to observe her surroundings after feeling a strange presence and seeing something. . .

in the corner of her eye.

The other campers were perplexed with Diane's strange behavior, and they asked her if something was wrong. Thinking that it was just her imagination, Diane said that everything was alright, and went back to reading her book.

12:00 A.M.

The four campers were planning on staying up late and telling stories by the fire, while roasting marshmallows. Setting up the campfire took a while since the four campers were inexperienced with its technique.

At around 3:00 A.M., while the campers were still awake, Diane noticed something in the corner of her eye again. This time, she wasn't the only person who noticed it. The other three campers noticed it as well, and Jonas volunteered to see what was going on.

He never came back.
