okay so this summer i went to a ranch in new Mexico as a counselor, the majority of the kids were Navajo. Now i will be straight forward im Christian and this camp was to teach kids about God and our beliefs so it was very spiritual in nature which i will elaborate on later. But anyway alot of the kids were really scared to sleep in the cabins at night(we had a cabin area that was surrounded by forest, the camp was pretty big but mostly just wasteland) the particular week it happened (we have new kids each week with different age groups) i had middle schoolers and some high school freshmen, but ya the kids were really scared of the cabin and wanted to sleep with the lights on. every night we would do devotions, and oh sorry the cabin consisted of me and 2 other guys who were staff that helped out around everywhere doing kitchen duty and such and 9 kids. so i slept on the floor in front of the door cause there wasnt enough beds, so anyway i think it was Wednesday and it was 11 ish and i gave devotions and it went well the kids were very somber and more serious then they had ever been, so this was really good. and fyi im not trying to promote my religion but this will all be very religious. so i gave devotions and it went well and i was happy things were good camp was fun i liked my kids, so i went to go to sleep and i probably sat there till one even though i had gotten up at five, i was really almost depressed but honestly for no particular reason, so i was just lying there thinking(the cabin has a front door and a fire escape in the back they are really small like just enough to fit in the 5 bunk beads.) so i was sitting there and suddenly (the cabin areas consists of 10 cabins in a horseshoe shape and mine was the bottom left) i heard a barking probably coming from the top right cabin. and it wasnt threatening just annoying really , what was weird though was the barking wasnt threatening or like for other dogs it was just like asking for attention, it was constant without break and not to loud but it went on for about 10 mins, at first i was just like whatever we,re in the middle of nowhere its not that weird, but the barking kept going and it was really close maybe about 20 ft, so ya i started to get a bit creeped, so then i started praying about the dog and just random stuff and the dog stopped, so then after a bit i stopped praying and then out of freaking nowhere i hear someone crying where the dog was, and mind you its 1 something in the morning there is literally no noise and i hear the crying and then it stops and i hear a man barking where the dog was, like an old maybe 40 to 50 year old man trying to sound like a dog, it was distinctly human, and i just sat there i have never been so scared in my life, i was frozen with fear and then i started to pray like real quick and it stopped, so then idk why on earth i ran to my friends cabin after closing the door to mine and i woke him up and told him what happen and we closed the doors to his cabin and we started praying and we could hear something scratching at the door and breathing heavy, and we prayed till 3:40 ish in the morning then went to bed, so this was the icing on the cake for me, the next day we go breakfast and we run into a senior staff member, there's only about 7 of them? but shes about 47 and she comes up to us and asks us what happened last night, she then said she got up at one and started praying for me and then started praying for the other guy i woke up and she stopped and three 40 right before we stopped, and we hadnt told anyone, literally no one knew or was awake besides us and this lady was praying for us so ya crazy, then 2 days later i went to sleep maybe at like 12 and i woke up and 3 am and i was scarred, i thought it would happen again so i prayed for maybe 20 mins about alot of stuff, then i was like well nothing happened guess im good, and i sat back down and tried to sleep and i hear this man chanting in Navajo to the left of my cabin like right beside it and the doors are open, and i yelled;) and slammed the front door, but it was dead silent like i should have heard him walking up cause the place is all gravel and it was definitely an older man all the campers were kids, and last thing i woke up one night, this was earlier in the summer and i was kind of in a frenzy so i got up and like ran around my cabin cause i felt threatened but i saw nothing so i crawled onto my bunk which was the top of a bunked, and i look down and theres this little pale white kid, probably like 7-10 in a prayer postion by my friends bed looking the other way and i just sat there and it vanished, so yua the camp was scary other kids heard weird stuff like someone runnigng through their cabin at 2 in the morning and stuff but ya idk it was just bizarre, so ya
