When She Heard Noises From Underground In The Woods, Instinct Told Her To Dig

Fearful Shivers

Maria saw that the path ahead of her darkened further into the woods. She was growing anxious and fearful, but she needed to find out where the scream had come from. She needed to help in whatever way she could.

Her body buzzed from the adrenaline, and she couldn’t help but feel scared. She thought about running away and leaving it up to the police, but she was frozen. She shivered when she spotted movement close to her.

Love For The Woods

Maria Brooks had a love for walking in the woods and made herself prepared for them. She’d bring water, earphones, and a podcast, sometimes losing focus during her walks. She could spend hours in the forest.

She had gone into the woods like she usually did without thinking that today would be like no other. She didn’t know that she’d experience something life-altering.

The Sunday News

Maria had spent the warm Sunday with her family, and they had just finished lunch when she decided to go for a walk. She found the leash in its usual spot and readied her dog for another trip to the woods.

Before she could usher her dog outside, she heard the news report on the TV. What she heard was unpleasant and sent her blood pumping.

She Was Missing

There had been a young woman from a nearby town that had gone missing three days ago. Maria sympathized with the lost woman’s family, only imagining their feelings and knowing they missed her.

She had watched the entire report but still felt like going for a walk. She ushered her dog out of the house and led him through the gate and onto the path leading to the forest. She had no clue what awaited her.

Nearing The Woods

She saw that her dog enjoyed the chance to go out, perhaps needing the walk just as much as she did. He was a good dog and they would both have some time to enjoy a peaceful walk together.

She neared the woods, but her mind was signaling something, telling her something wasn’t right. She ignored it and convinced herself the walk would do her good. They continued down the path.
