The Stilts at Stillwater Creek

from Things in the Attic — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo

In the summer of 1989, my cousin Eli and I found a row of wooden stilts sunk into the mud of Stillwater Creek, outside our small hometown of Portage, Indiana. They stood in perfect formation, too tall and too straight, rising from the stagnant water like teeth. Local kids said they belonged to a man who drowned there years ago—a man who walked through the marsh on those stilts, hunting something nobody would name. We thought it was a story. But one night, we went back with flashlights and saw something moving between them. This is what we saw, and what happened to Eli afterward. It's about the things we forget on purpose, and the things that won't let us forget. #ThingsInTheAttic #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #StiltsAtStillwaterCreek #PortageIndiana #Summer1989 #MarshHorror #CreekLegends #DrownedMan #StiltWalker #Eli #Cousins #Flashlight #Mud #WhatWeSaw #DontLookBack #ForgottenThings #AtmosphericHorror #AtticHorror #FoundObjects Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
