Written Confession: A Roadside Nightmare

The following written confession was submitted online anonymously:

This is my husband's story, but he won't speak of it anymore. He wants to forget it completely. So I'll tell the story. My husband and two of his cousins were driving late at night, coming back from the city. All of a sudden, their car broke down in farmland just before the dirt road that brings them home to the reserve. One of his cousins stood dead still, looking into the field, and asked them to come look. My husband didn't want to, but he started walking toward her to see what she was looking at. His other cousin wouldn't get out of the car — she said there was evil all around them, and she could feel it.

What my husband and his other cousin saw was unreal, unlike anything I've ever heard of. He came home at about 5:30 a.m. after he got the car going again. He told me he'd seen something, and when I asked what it was, he said he didn't know, but he knows he wasn't imagining things, because he wasn't the only one to see it. When I asked again what it was, he screamed at me that he didn't know. Confused and scared, I asked him to describe it. Once again, he screamed that he didn't know. I stopped talking to him. He never acts like this, and I was getting scared. 

About 10 minutes later, he came back in our bedroom and said that he'd seen human legs all connected together like a spider coming out of the ground. I was baffled. I'd never heard such a thing in my life. He said he saw a man in the ground as well, just buried in the dirt up to his waist, and a young child sitting on the side of the road, crying. He also saw shadow people running back and forth across the road and crawling in the dark. And no, none of them were on any drugs at all. 

My husband won't talk about it anymore. I've always wondered if they somehow entered another world or just saw some things that they weren't ever supposed to see. He won't walk out in the dark yet and doesn't like looking out the windows after dark. I'm terrified and I didn't even see it. I'll always wonder what in the world went on that night. I hope if anyone out there reads this and has had the same experience, they will get in contact with me somehow.
