If you like hiking or enjoy flocking around in forests, maybe this video isnt for you.
It'll make you never want to go to a forest again unless you are accompanied with body
guards and heavily armed. Forest rangers all over the world have taken to the internet
to share their horrifying experiences. From wendigo sightings, to hungry wolves, lets
talk about these and more only in todays video top 10 real scary stories from forest rangers
Starting off this countdown we have the deer head.
Posted on reddit by ripeotcdxvi, they claim to be a forest ranger at yellowstone national
park. One day they were out exploring a part of the park called lamar valley which is about
11 miles from the nearest road. While on the trail they stumbled upon something very shocking,
a perfectly severed deer head. There was no blood what so ever, and it was cut off with
such precision. Now obviously this is a park so the rangers come across dead animals all
the time. But never in such perfect condition. Also the head was completely uneaten. So now
the question is, who did this, why did they do this and how did they do this?
Moving on at number 9 we have the abandoned tent
Reddit user notsosingle buck, was at work one day when he came across a campsite that
was set u outside of the designated campsite area. Which is against the rules of the park
so he went to investigate. In the tent he found a sleeping bag, some dirty clothes,
lots of canned food and a teddy bear. The whole thing smoked of cigarette smoke. There
was nothing that he could do though until the individual returned. He didnt want to
wait all day so he just took the open food to prevent animals from being attracted to
it, and left a note explaining where he had taken the food and why. Two weeks later he
returned to the tent and it had remained untouched. As a result he and his team cleared out the
tent. Whatever happened to the person staying in the tent remains a huge mystery. Did a
wild animal get to them? Did he fall off the cliff? A body was never found so we may never
know.
Coming in at number8 we have the wolf pack This story happened 3 years ago by an old-timey
forest ranger that worked in Montana. He was out roaming around on his ATV when he saw
an older lady in the distance. She was screaming As 6 wolves closed in around her. The ranger
drove down to her as fast as he could yelling and honking trying to scare away the wolves,
but when he got there she was no where to be found. The only sign of her was a silver
ring with a black stone which was on teh ground where the woman was standing. Seems like the
wolves got to her and carried her away/.
Coming in at number 7 we have the strange blue lights
This person used to work as a ranger at philmont scout ranch in new mexico. Theres a place
on this ranch that is said to be haunted. Theres a number of urban legends surrounding
the place sayin glike oh its the portal to the underworld, or a ancient cursed burial
ground, you get it. Theres also thsi very eerie legend saying that on some nights bluelights
can be seen. One story claims that a hiker saw an eerie figure on the trail. The figure
was tall and emitting blue light. Well legend goes that the blue lights are coming from
a shaman that guards the ground. Anyways Obviously theres are just legends though right?
Well one night the ranger was out with a scout troop when they saw a bunch of weird lights
coming down a trail. These were the imfamous blue lights talked about in multiple legends.
Everyone was so freaked out that they got out of there as fast as they could. Now lets
just say they are all believers
In our 6th spot we have the skinned animals So a couple of years ago two forest rangers
were on their way to a far location, when it got dark out. As a result they had to camp
overnight. But during the night they were woken up by the sound of footsteps right outside
of the tent. All of a sudden they heard a number of people yell GET OUT. The two rangers
packed up as fast as they could and got the hell out of there. The next morning the cops
went to check out the area and found 4 skinned animals nailed to the trees surrounding the
campsite. Okay thats horrifying. And i have a number of questions. Number 1 who the heck
were those people, number 2 what were they doing there, number 3, what the hell, and
number 4, what the hell. Seriously, that is messed up. Were they doing some satanic ritual?
And the forest rangers ruined it? Or what?
Fifth and halfway mark with the wendigo Imagine going out camping with some friends
and encountering a wendigo during your trip. Wouldnt that be insane and also terrifying.
Well this happened to a forest ranger and a bunch of his friends. So the group went
out camping and all was going well. Until the second night. During the night all four
of the men woke up to a loud highpitched scream. They assumed it was just a coyote. But the
next mornin they were in for a surprised. By their camp site they found a bunch of animal
guts everywhere. The ranger described it as if there was a bomb in the animal and it went
off. There was just fur, blood, and flesh everywhere. That night is when they came across
the monster that devoured that animal. They were out investigating a sound when they saw
a weird tall figure move in the distance. It was about 6 feet tall and did not look
like an animal and did not look like a human.when the creature spotted the two men it took off
it a flash. They believe that they encountered a wendigo.
Coming in at number 4 we have the man in the woods.
This next individual was a park ranger on a small island. The island could only be accessed
by a private boat. During the summer there would be hoards of people there. But during
the off-season the ranger would be the only one on the island. One night the ranger decided
tohike around the entire island. Yes at night when it was dark, he thought it would be a
fun challenge for himself. Plus there was no cell or internet service so what could
you really do. Well while he was out on his hike he heard a noise coming from behind him.
He turned around and standing by him was a crazy old man. He was super pale super tall
man with dark hair. The man gave out a creepy smile and then cackled. The ranger ran forhis
life and this crazy man followed him until the ranger mad it back safely to the cabin.
In the morning he went back on the trail he had been on and there were no sets of other
foot prints… as if the man had never been there at all.
Moving on at number 3 we have the polar bears So this next individual was a a park ranger
in the northern part of ontario canada. In the middle of the night, she woke up to hear
something outside of her tent. She opened her eyes and saw the head of a polar bear
peaking into her tent. IMAGINE WAKING UP AND SEEING THAT THING BREATHING IN YOUR FACE WHAT
WOULD YOU DO? Well the correct answer is dont panic and dont frighten the bear. Thankfully
that's what the ranger did. She stayed calm and eventually the bear left the tent.That
could have ended much worse for this woman. She got lucky. I think i would have peed myself
seriously.
In our 2ndspot we have the river accident A man named kevin uxbridge use to be a ranger
at Yosemite. One day he was making his way through the gate which was along a river when
they heard a huge commotion. People were yelling and screaming and crying. Well turns out that
there was a husband and wife standing by the river. The husband was taking a picture of
his wife and kept telling her to back up so he could get a good shot. Well she ended up
backing up too far and she fell into the river. The river was pretty violent that day so within
seconds she was swept under. It took the ranger and firefighters 2 months before they could
find her body. The worst part. Her body was found in the swimming hole when the river
had settled. People were swimming in there just days before they found her.
And in our number 1 spot, we have the ghostly body
This next story comes from a trail ranger. One time he noticed there were a bunch of
illegally placed wildlife cams around, so he was going around taking them down. Things
were going well until he started hearing a bunch of weird voices. He hopped back on his
ATV but the battery was disconnected so he couldn't drive off. He was then stuck there
waiting for someone to come pick him up, they were an hour away and it was getting dark.
He decided to sit down and make a small fire. Before he knew it the voices were back, this
time getting louder and louder. Finally, he could hear what was being said. It two hunters
arguing over a kill. Thats when all of a sudden he heard a loud BANG. it was a gunshot. After
that he smothered the fire and hid until his coworkers arrived. The next day the two came
back with the police to investigate the area. After about an hour of looking, they came
across a shallow grave. In it they found a dead man who had been shot in the face. The
freakiest part, it was the skeleton of the man. He had been there for years. So it seems
like he heard ghosts re-enacting the murder that happened years ago o something like that.
THAT
IS
SO FREAKY.
