I was camping this last weekend at Navajo Lake, and I ended up wandering off far from my group at night.
I was sort of far away from everyone, and alone, and I began to hear rustling in the bushes around me, and then I began to hear voices coming from the bush, some that yelled my name. Then I turned around and two of my friends were there right behind me, and I had not heard them come up. The thing is though is that these two people looked somewhat like my friends, but their hair was the wrong colour, and their bodies weren't moving correctly. It began to weird me out, but then I began to notice that their faces seemed to adjust to my thoughts of how they looked, and they didn't talk very much and didn't seem able to respond to things I said that they would have known as my friends. I think that they threw something in my face that made me mesmerized. They then led me deeper and deeper into the desert and I was mesmerized and I followed them for a while, I don't know how long. They would not let me look at their eyes for more than a split second, and when I saw them, they weren't the eyes of my friends.
At some point, I snapped out of it, stopped, and asked them who they were and what they were doing, where they were leading me, and that I wanted them to leave me the hell alone. I thought though that they were skin walkers for some reason because of the way they subtly changed.
When I stopped I told them to get away from me or they were going to get it, then they said some things to me that were very bad that I forgot almost immediately, then they ran away from me while changing shape at very high speed, and then disappeared. I don't know how I didn't lose my cool, but I'm a person who doesn't really get afraid of anything.
But wtf??

Back in the Sixties it was considered a friendly thing (in some circles) to introduce someone to the mysteries of the drug culture by slipping a dose of LSD into his drink. It sounds like your campmates might have been doing you a 'favor'.

Thats odd. May I ask what happened the next time you saw your "real friends"?
Did you try to tell them what happened?
What happened once you got back to camp?

Doesn't this belong in the ghost section? Or the sightings section? Doesn'ty have much to do with crypto, but awesome story anyway, so trippy lol!

So, were you really not sure of what happened? Did you have a sort of unreal like feeling? Did everything around you seem different all of a sudden? Were all of the natural things that you know (like the laws of gravity and other natural laws) suddenly not as effective? Did everything seem clear to your head, or was it blurry and dizzy? Were your sences (see, hear, smell, touch) all working properly or were some things not as strong?
Sorry about all the questions but they are important. Oh, yeah, were you drinking?

Sounds like a bad trip on shrooms. I've never heard about something like this before, interesting.

No it isn't. Sorry, i assume that was a joke, but it doesn't really fit the situation, so i just had to be a jerk about it

You'd need one hell of an halucinogen to get an experience like what's described above. That story reads almost like something from Carlos Castaneda... I do hope the poster comes back and tells us more about it. Could be his friends played a prank on him? slipped him some drugs and tried to freak him out by acting weirdly and running off...

I agree. Not that particular drug but other chemicals and chemical concoctions may it be natural or artificially made could cause that same effect. I have seen its destructive effect in teenagers and among my generations, and that’s the only thing that you’d get from these things. I think these things are called “hallucinogens”
It’s a good story….sorry about my ignorance but what is a skinwalker? Is it the same as doppelgangers?

Turtletent has it right: It
does sound like something out of Castaneda. Of course, I don't actually believe Castaneda; nobody could go through twenty years (and six books!) of mind-bending experiences and come out as unchanged as Castaneda does.
