The Things We Left at Parson's Rock
from Game Trail — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo
In the winter of 2018, deep in the Monongahela National Forest, a hunter named Clyde Stoltzfus followed a blood trail that led him not to a wounded deer, but to an old stone formation known locally as Parson's Rock. What he found there—a heap of small objects, each left by someone who had no intention of coming back—drew him back night after night. Clyde told me this story over coffee at a diner in Bartow, West Virginia, his hands shaking around the mug. He said the pile grew each day. A child's mitten. A woman's wedding ring. A man's wallet with the cash still inside. He started leaving something of his own. And then... he saw the figure standing at the edge of the clearing. Not a person. Something wearing the shape of a person. This episode is about what we give up when no one is watching—and what starts watching back. #GameTrail #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #ParsonRock #MonongahelaForest #WestVirginia #ClydeStoltzfus #bloodtrail #offeringpile #winterhorror #folklore #Appalachia #slowburn #atmospherichorror #unsettling #figureinthewoods #lostandfound #whatweleavebehind Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
