A couple is driving back along a lonely road at night after visiting friends in a neighboring town. Stopping at a scenic overlook to gaze at the moon, they hear a voice calling to them from the bottom…
No entities detected.
My name is Graciela, and what I'm about to tell you happened exactly five years ago, when my boyfriend and I had not been living together very long, around our first anniversary.
I'll start the way many people do, by telling you that I had never been someone who particularly believed in paranormal stories.
I loved hearing them because I grew up in a town where there was always someone who claimed to have seen fireballs, witches, goblins, or some apparition on the road.
But I always thought that if something similar ever happened to me, I would surely find a logical explanation because I considered myself smarter than those who actually believed.
What happened that night was the first time I understood that there are experiences you simply will not be able to explain, no matter how hard you try.
One of my best friends had just finished building her little house in a neighboring town about forty minutes from ours.
First, she bought the land, then she built a small room, and gradually they finished the other spaces one by one until she was finally able to complete it.
We were all very excited to see it since we had watched the whole process from when it was just a patch of dirt.
She invited us to spend the afternoon there, eat together, and stay the night to properly christen the house.
But the following day, I had to be at work very early, and there was no way I could miss it.
My boyfriend offered to come pick me up after dinner so I could stay a little later and wouldn't have to drive home alone at night.
I remember perfectly that the sun had barely set just after eight, and there was still some light when he left our town.
He came in to say hello, and we said our goodbyes to my friends amid much teasing because they all kept insisting I stay, promising they would wake me up early the next morning so I could get back to work in time.
