Episode 1 - The Church and Bare Footprints in the Ice

I’m your host Cull and this is Backwoods Creepy.Nostalgia is an interesting thing. We love to think back and remember the fun carefree idles of our past, moments and adventures that make up our youth. But remembering and recreating are two very different things. Where one is a nice way to glimpse the world of our childhood selves, the other tends to remind us of the time gone and the ways in which both we, and the world, have changed. Sometimes, maybe even often, not for the better. Our first tale is called The Church.Why is the treeline at night such a scary thing to stare into? Is it because it’s so hard to decipher what's in there, to make out any distinct shapes? Maybe it’s the knowledge that there is bustling life in the inky blackness beyond, a world just out of our sight? Or is it because the darkness there seems to be looking back, staring just as intently at us as we at it? Of course, the truth is, it’s all three and we know it. Our second tale is called Bare Footprints in the Ice.Alright folks, thanks for listening to Backwoods Creepy - Strange Encounters in the Forest.
