I just took the dog out for a last wee before bed. My house is on a quiet village road, houses quite far apart. I usually walk a little way up for him to empty his bladder, then I turn back.
For a moment I saw the shape of a burly man, stocky, wide shoulders, walking towards me. Then he was just gone! No gates or turnings where he was. The dog was sniffing the air just to really put the fear into me! It really chilled me. I'm not even drunk!
Then I thought, we haven't had a good spooky thread in ages and we all need some entertainment. I know I'll regret it but let's share our spooky encounters.
