Bigfoot, ghosts, and things that go bump in the night

[Graywolf]

What stories do you like to say when sitting around camp or shelters??? I know there are some good ones, so lets hear them...

Best one is to play 'Hey Dude' when it's completely dark. . . when someone in the shelter that you just met is almost asleep - say,'hey dude'. . . from there the possibilities are limitless. . . these can be enhanced by gradually sliding closer to the unsuspecting victim as you continue. . . .
Examples:

• Hey dude - Are you cold? . . .
• Hey dude - tell me a story . . .
• Hey dude - is that your hand? Oh, it must be mine then. . .
• Hey dude - do you like your picture taken. . . .

etc. . . . . . . . . . make them up as you go. . . .

We'll I was told as a young'un that when the sun goes down over Hainted Holler,
5 miles south of Damascus, way down off the east side of the trail,
on a clear night light with a big moon, you can see gold and silver coins strewn about -fairly liberally.
If you pick'em up, the haints come for ya. They chase you until you drop every coin.
Probably the results of some mayhem way back between rival moonshiners or with revenuers possibly.
I'm just tellin' ya what I heard. I've never been down in there daylight or dark,
but I have been on the ridge above it at sunset and watched a thin mist sweep through the woods with little wind and settle down in there.
Sort of spooked me. I'd spend the night down there if somebody'd go with me, but I ain't goin' by myself.
jjj

Hey don't tell Jester2000 anything about Bigfoot, ghosts or things that go bump in the night. He scare enough being alone at night.
