"He didn’t see anything near them until he looked down. Two grasshoppers were looking directly at him. Then he saw a cricket, also pointed in his direction. Sandy held him tightly as they saw more and more insects, each one with its focus set on the two kids." https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyright 2022 Miles Tritle | T...

News channels brought the televised trial national attention. If it weren’t for all the press, Yvette might have been able to slip right back into society unnoticed. It’s certainly what she would have preferred after witnessing—and allegedly causing—a murder. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyright 2022 Miles Tritle | Th...

The heavy footfalls always started at the furthest end the hall. They had an uneven tempo like a song with a heavy swing. Ba-bump. Ba-bump. I’m pretty sure what made the sounds has a limp. The footsteps got louder as they approached my door—much louder than the guards’ footsteps. And here’s the eeriest part: they didn’t echo. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwood...

I had just fallen asleep when my doorbell rang. I’m not sure if you’ve ever had your doorbell rung late at night, but its a chilling sound. I picked up my phone and saw a notification from the doorbell app. It said, “Someone is at the door.” This message usually gave me a warm feeling, but that night it sent a chill up my spine. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningw...

I was flattered to be invited into a group of such young, attractive people. In my late thirties, I was starting to feel as if my glory days were behind me. I say this only to explain why I was so willing to sit with this group of strangers. In hindsight, I should have been wary of why they wanted anything to do with me. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www...

“Is someone there?” I whispered. “It’s me,” a young boy’s voice said. I stayed silent for a moment, utterly confused. The kid sounded too young to be a high school student. What was a child doing under the stage in the dark? How long had he been there? “Who are you?” I asked. Again, the voice said, “It’s me.” https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.c...

I looked out at the shop. With everything back in order, the Fiesta’s appearance was the only reminder of the incident. But the shop floor had an eerie feel to it. I told myself the feeling lingered from the unsettling experience of the break-in, but I’m not sure I was being honest with myself. Those pictures were disturbing. I’m sure I’d been alone in the shop when I took them. I had walked all o...

“Life is short; death is forever,” she said. “If I leave you alone for the rest of your life, you have to promise you will stay with me forever when you die.” This story details a young man's experience with an "imaginary friend" and the tragic affect his friendship has in his adult life. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Co...

“Go ahead 652,” answered the sergeant. “I’ll take some assistance at St. Mary’s. I might need a hand with this guy.” 652’s message was difficult to hear over the pulsating rhythm of the chanting. It had grown much louder and more forceful. “Copy 652. Be advised, we can barely hear you over that guy. Can you make him stop talking?” asked the sergeant. Yolanda exchanged a look with Levi. They both r...

“Is the spirit of a dead person here?” Sarah asked, ignoring the strange glances from her peers. The planchette slid to “no,” much to the amusement of the other kids. Sarah became nervously excited. “Are you an evil spirit?” she asked. The planchette practically teleported across the board, nearly escaping the kids’ fingertips on its way to “yes.” https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patr...

"Besides shattering my body, the accident did something to my mind. I’m seeing things—feeling things—that I’ve never experienced before. It’s a terrifying experience to be paralyzed, unable to call for help, and seeing ghosts." https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyright 2021 Miles Tritle | The Warning Woods Horror Stories S...

"There is nothing on you, I promise. Wing Worms aren’t real; did you know that?” Her eyes became chasms and she shook her head aggressively. She pointed an arthritic finger above us, drawing invisible lines across the ceiling. “There’s one…there’s one…there’s another one…I can see their little wings and their hungry little teeth. Don’t try tellin’ me somethin's not real when I can see it wi’ my ow...

"Feet shuffled on the other side of the door, but didn’t leave. Then the door started to rattle again. The shaking was more aggressive this time. It seemed like the man was trying to rip the door down. I shouted uselessly at them to stop and pressed my body against the door to try and keep it shut." https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarn...

"I peeked around the corner and saw the source of both the sound and light. The refrigerator. It’s door kept swinging wide open, pausing, then slamming shut. All on its own. I stood there hugging the wall for a moment. I questioned whether I had woken up at all. Was I dreaming?" https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyright 20...

"The parking lot was almost full when we pulled in. My gut twisted when I saw why. More than half the snowmen had been dressed in children’s clothing. Not one had been given a face. The crystal surface of the snow had been trampled by dozens of parents who now stood examining snowmen wearing their children’s clothes." https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.in...

Now Brianna felt it. The malevolence. It seeped from the woman like poison gas. With each step she took towards the cornered teens, they became more afraid and the malevolence grew a little stronger. Brianna could see it. It was in the haze that surrounded the apparition. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyright 2021 Mile...

I waved Brett over and braced my feet on the deck. Together, we pulled the trapdoor free from the thick, mossy growth. There was a brittle crack as it came up, and I nearly vomited into my regulator when I saw why. As the trapdoor fell away, a bony hand remained attached to it. Brett shone his light down the hole, and we watched as the arm it had been attached to slipped into the darkness below. h...

“Charlie?” She reached forward and gently touched his shoulder. Without turning or moving at all, Charlie screamed. He didn’t just cry out in surprise, he unleashed a continuous yell at piercing volume. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyright 2021 Miles Tritle | The Warning Woods Horror Stories Subscribe for more creepy...

“Vern…” Letty pointed to a spot on the water near where the alligator had vanished. Little bubbles were bursting on the surface and something dark was spreading through the water. Bits of scaly flesh starting popping up near the bubbles in the pool of blood. “Whatever that thing is, it’s ripping that gator apart...” https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods www.inst...

One of the big double doors swung open on the front of the barn. It beckoned them, nay, dared them to come inside. “In here! In here!” The eerie message came again from inside the barn. It had the same inhuman quality as before, only this time it didn’t belong to a disembodied man. https://anchor.fm/thewarningwoods/support  www.patreon.com/thewarningwoods  www.instagram.com/thewarningwoods Copyrig...
