Sufjan Posted July 4, 2012 #1 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Hello, I am reading this sites articles for a while and I thought I could share my experience at the moment, but let me introduce myself first. my name is Alex, I am from Germany and I receive some strange things. I found a letter in my Mailbox saying "Do you remember the loop way?". Below the sentence, there is a picture of a tree. The sheet was folded and there are two arrows drawn on each side. I made a few pictures, which I uploaded for you. It's taken with my webcam and it's written in german. I don't who sent me this letter and I don't know what the person meant by "loop" way. As far as I know, I don't have any enemies, because I am living in a nutshell for a few months. I received the letter on the first of july, since then, there have been a few phone calls in the middle of the night. I said "Hi?" and then the person hung up. Today I called the police, but the officers said, that there is no evidence for someone threating me and that it has to be prank by some kids or something. Usually that might be likely, but calling me in the middle of a night is just awful for me, because I suffer from Insomnia and I haven't slept well since Sunday. I am a little bit anxious, because I don't habe anybody to be around. Well, I know you can't really help me, but I just want to talk to some one who is not a family member. The pictures can be found below. thanks for reading alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sufjan Posted July 4, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Could be telling you a location where to go? Hey, it seems like the picture is cut out of a newpaper. A few miles ago, there is a tree like this. After seeing that picture, it did remind me of that one. I don't know if it's a good idea to go there alone, since it's a remote place. It's paranoid to think, that some one wants to kill me, but there have been cases like this and I've seen all the movies about stupid decisions. Maybe I'll call my sister and we go for a walk in the woods. alex Edited July 4, 2012 by Alex Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonathanVonErich Posted July 4, 2012 #5 Share Posted July 4, 2012 My advice: Call the authorities. If you are worried and scared then do something about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today I called the police, but the officers said, that there is no evidence for someone threating me and that it has to be prank by some kids or something. I'm quiet sure, that this has to be a prank. I used to know very weird people, but after all, I never did them any harm at all.

Rlyeh Posted July 4, 2012 #7 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Maybe they want you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sufjan Posted July 4, 2012 Author #8 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Maybe they want you? Wouldn't it be easier to hit me in the head instead of this? I don't know if the phone calls are going to continue, but when they do, maybe I'll get to know what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizzieboo Posted July 4, 2012 #9 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Uh...honey? If you are worried, why would you take your sister for a walk there with you? Why not your biggest, strongest, meanest friend? I know all the blather about men and women being equal, but the reality is that women aren't usually as physically strong as men (unless your sister is a professional body builder or knows karate or something). Besides, my brothers always wanted to protect me, not expose me to danger. Just sayin' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, my brothers always wanted to protect me, not expose me to danger. Just sayin' That's because I don't have friends anymore. They avoid me. I don't expect something to happen at all, but just to be sure, you know. I don't believe, that there's a plot to kill me, it's just a bit odd.

Super-Fly Posted July 4, 2012 #11 Share Posted July 4, 2012 be worried when you see the men in black suits turn up! but really, could be a prank, save up the evidence and then go to the police? on another note, what causes your insomnia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomy91 Posted July 4, 2012 #12 Share Posted July 4, 2012 You should try to get too know your neighbors a little better. Maybe they have also gotten strange messages in the mail or know something about it. If you just moved in, I'll bet its the landlord. (Since the person has your number and know your address.)

Yes, that's what I'm going to do. There's nothing I can do more about that after all. But it's nice to talk about it. My insomnia is caused because I worry too much. I think of all of the things, that are gone. You should try to get too know your neighbors a little better. Maybe they have also gotten strange messages in the mail or know something about it. If you just moved in, I'll bet its the landlord. (Since the person has your number and know your address.) When I go out tomorrow and I run into a neighbour, I will subtle ask them out. Thanks for that advice. I didn't think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Fly Posted July 4, 2012 #14 Share Posted July 4, 2012 if you do go to the woods, cant you take protection, like a bat or something, i mean if your worried, it would pay to look after number one if you know what i mean.... do you take anything for your sleeping, or thaught of going to see somebody about it? stay safe...

Never mind, I will go to that location tomorrow, but it feels quiet weird. The funny thing is, that this tree is located between two country roads, but when it's used it's more of a shortcut, than a loop way. Maybe the sentence and the picture are unrelated, but what do I know? it's just a sheet of paper with a cryptic message and silly phone calls.

rashore Posted July 4, 2012 #16 Share Posted July 4, 2012 You might want to try giving the phone company a call and see if they can tell you what numbers have been calling you. They might not be able to help you, but it can't hurt to ask. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sufjan Posted July 4, 2012 Author #18 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) If the phone calls continue, I will do so. It's silly, because it's not like I go like "Whaaat the **** is wrong?". I just say "hi" and "who's there?". Nothing happens. @Super-Fly I checked out google maps and it turned out, that it's not that remote as I thought, but then again I don't remember any relation to that location. perhaps some one likes that tree and wants me to hug it or something.

Sufjan Posted July 4, 2012 Author #20 Share Posted July 4, 2012 HA, could be! there are some strange people out there! I know. I have to be careful, but like I said, just a stupid prank I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
777MileStare Posted July 4, 2012 #21 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Secret Crush.......do you have a girlfriend? You were saying you stay at home like a recluse but if you go out maybe theres a girl watching you??? Just a suggestion... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schizoidwoman Posted July 4, 2012 #22 Share Posted July 4, 2012 If you are really worried about this and don't think it is a prank, I would suggest keeping a log of all the phone calls (and anything that arrives in your letterbox) so you can use it to demonstrate there is a problem when you speak to the police; in addition, I would definitely inform the telephone company and have a quick word with your neighbours as others have suggested. If I were you, I certainly wouldn't go to a remote location either alone or with your sister, better to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were saying you stay at home like a recluse but if you go out maybe theres a girl watching you??? Just a suggestion... I don't think so. Well, I wouln't call it impossible, but that's a strange way of showing somebody sympathy.

If I were you, I certainly wouldn't go to a remote location either alone or with your sister, better to be safe. I only received this letter and it wasn't even in an envelope. I'll call my telephone company tomorrow (it's 22.35 here). The silliest thing is, that I don't even know, if I should be scared or laughing my backbone off. EDIT: - seems like I answered some of the question twice. Sorry. Edited July 4, 2012 by Alex Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sufjan Posted July 5, 2012 Author #24 Share Posted July 5, 2012 So, I didn't sleep last night. There wasn't any call at all, but it didn't feel good. I have to get a few things straight and then I will look around the location in case the rain stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to get a few things straight and then I will look around the location in case the rain stops. The police have a duty to look into what may be happening so just keep on at them...and i wouldn't be going to the location.If it is a prank,you will just be showing whoever is doing it that you are freaked out by it all....just keep on at the police 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
