Alright, Lotters here's one for the Creepiest list.
So if you've read any of my posts you know I love to hunt for arrowheads.
There are rare occasions we get to hunt the field behind our house and most of the time its night before we can get out there. The neighbor doesn't mind but he throws the lock on the gate before he leaves and he's a police officer. So anytime we do go out there we check with him so he knows not to break out his sidearm on us.
We hop on the four-wheeler and head out there Hoping the flashlights strapped to our heads will reveal some treasures. And that's about all I can see. It's a strong light when you are directing it straight down to see where I'm going.
Well, it was between eleven and midnight. I'm about to call it for the night. Think hubby is too cause he's always ready long before me. When I see the flash of his lighter about five feet to my right. A sure sign that he's about to call it himself.
When all of a sudden the silence is broken by the sound of our four-wheeler starting that is about half the field away from me.
The first thing that I think is "someone is stealing our ride. So I take off in that direction. Wondering why I don't hear him moving with me.
It takes me about two solid mins to see the headlights and I notice that it's my hubby on it. I finally get to him and asked, how he'd got to the four-wheeler so fast that I had just seen him light his cigarette?" At which time he informs me that he didn't even bring the cigarettes with us tonight and furthermore he was hunting on the other side of the four-wheeler.
So what the crap man. It is pitch black out there. Hubby is at least 100 feet away from me and there's is someone standing in the middle of an empty field in the dark watching us not saying a word. I felt like Clarice Starling from Silence of the Lambs. We road down the sloped field and did a large circle and there was nothing! Nada! No sign that someone had been there.
Until I look down and they're sitting in a bare spot lay a cigarette butt. We are both like, What?
So I'm done with night hunting at least for now. Dr. Lecter is welcome to it.

Oh my goodness that is terrifying. I feel like someone was just playing a prank on you, but still, yikes!
