- 0:02Speaker 1: Booking the secluded mountain cabin seemed like the perfect escape
- 0:05Speaker 1: from the bustle of city life. As a nature enthusiast,
- 0:09Speaker 1: I crave the serenity of the forest and the crisp
- 0:12Speaker 1: mountain air. The cabin was everything I had hoped for, rustic, remote,
- 0:17Speaker 1: and surrounded by nothing but nature.
- 0:20Speaker 2: It was there that I met Alex.
- 0:22Speaker 1: He was ruggedly handsome, with a charm that made me
- 0:26Speaker 1: feel at ease.
- 0:27Speaker 2: We met on one of the hiking trails near the cabin.
- 0:30Speaker 1: Alex was a hiker, a nature lover just like me,
- 0:33Speaker 1: who stated at a nearby cabin.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Our encounters were friendly at first.
- 0:37Speaker 1: We talked about our favorite trails, the best spots to
- 0:40Speaker 1: watch the sunrise, and our shared love for the wilderness.
- 0:44Speaker 1: I had no reason to suspect anything was a miss.
- 0:47Speaker 1: It was on the third day that things began to change.
- 0:51Speaker 1: Alex showed up at my cabin, uninvited but friendly. He
- 0:55Speaker 1: brought a bottle of wine and we spent the evening talking.
- 0:59Speaker 1: I'll admit that there were some sparks in the air.
- 1:02Speaker 1: As the night wore on, his demeanor shifted. His friendly
- 1:06Speaker 1: banter turned into probing questions about my life, my family,
- 1:10Speaker 1: and my fears. I felt a growing unease, but tried
- 1:14Speaker 1: to brush it off.
- 1:16Speaker 3: It's getting late, Alex. I think it's time.
- 1:19Speaker 2: To call it a night.
- 1:21Speaker 1: Alex's smile didn't reach his eyes, of course, Emma sweet dreams.
- 1:27Speaker 1: I bolted the door after he left, but sleep didn't
- 1:30Speaker 1: come easily. But then I woke in the dead of
- 1:33Speaker 1: night to find Alex standing at the foot of my bed.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Before I could react, he lunged, pinning me down, his
- 1:40Speaker 1: hand clamping over my mouth.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Sh don't make this harder than it needs to be.
- 1:51Speaker 1: He dragged me to the cabin cellar, locking me inside.
- 1:54Speaker 1: The space was dark, with only a sliver of light
- 1:57Speaker 1: coming from a small window near the ceiling. It looked
- 2:00Speaker 1: like someone had been staying there, as there were mattresses
- 2:04Speaker 1: near me. My heart pounded as it dawned on me.
- 2:07Speaker 1: I wasn't the first one. I don't really know how
- 2:11Speaker 1: many days passed after that. Alex controlled my food, giving
- 2:16Speaker 1: me just enough to keep me alive, but never enough.
- 2:20Speaker 1: At night, he played loud, disturbing noises through speakers he
- 2:24Speaker 1: had installed in the cellar. As soon as I was
- 2:26Speaker 1: about to faint and to asleep, the cacophony of screams,
- 2:30Speaker 1: clanging metal and static woke me up with a jolt.
- 2:34Speaker 1: I would cover my ears and rock back and forth,
- 2:37Speaker 1: tears streaming down my face as exhaustion set in. It
- 2:41Speaker 1: would also leave me in complete darkness for hours on end.
- 2:44Speaker 1: The absence of light played tricks on my mind, and
- 2:48Speaker 1: soon I was seeing shadows that weren't there. My imagination
- 2:52Speaker 1: ran wild with horrors, each one more terrifying than the last.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Then one day he brought a knife and began carving
- 3:00Speaker 1: symbols into the wooden beams of the cellar. The symbols
- 3:04Speaker 1: made no sense to me, but the act worked. I
- 3:07Speaker 1: got increasingly terrified.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Why are you doing this?
- 3:13Speaker 1: Alex smiled, because I can. I love breaking people.
- 3:17Speaker 3: You you've done this before.
- 3:21Speaker 2: He didn't respond.
- 3:23Speaker 3: What happened to them?
- 3:25Speaker 2: He kept carving. Please don't kill me.
- 3:30Speaker 1: I knew I had to escape, but the cellar was
- 3:33Speaker 1: secured with a heavy lock. I spent hours studying it,
- 3:37Speaker 1: trying to find a weakness. My opportunity finally came when Alex,
- 3:41Speaker 1: in a rare moment of complacency, left a carving tool
- 3:45Speaker 1: within my reach. It took every ounce of strength and
- 3:48Speaker 1: concentration I had left to fashion it into a makeshift
- 3:52Speaker 1: lock pick. One night, while the disturbing noises blared, I
- 3:56Speaker 1: worked on the lock. It must have been a week
- 3:58Speaker 1: since I had slept proper life. My hands trembled violently,
- 4:02Speaker 1: but I refused to give up. Finally, the lock clicked open,
- 4:06Speaker 1: and I felt a surge of hope. I slipped down
- 4:09Speaker 1: of the cellar and crept through the cabin. The floorboards creaked,
- 4:13Speaker 1: and I held my breath, praying Alex wouldn't hear. He
- 4:17Speaker 1: was in the living room, absorbed in some twisted ritual
- 4:21Speaker 1: with the symbols he had carved. Meditating under candlelight, I
- 4:25Speaker 1: slipped out the back door, the cold night air hitting
- 4:28Speaker 1: me like a slap to the face, and then I
- 4:32Speaker 1: ran through the treacherous forest, as branches whipping against my skin.
- 4:37Speaker 2: The lack of sleep had made me paranoid.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Every sound made me jump, fearing Alex was behind me.
- 4:44Speaker 2: My lungs burned.
- 4:45Speaker 1: And my legs ached, but I pushed on, driven by
- 4:49Speaker 1: sheer will to survive. I reached the ranger station just
- 4:53Speaker 1: as dawn was breaking. I pounded on the door, screaming
- 4:57Speaker 1: for help. The rangers found me half crazed with fear,
- 5:01Speaker 1: covered in cuts and bruises, but I was alive. Alex
- 5:05Speaker 1: was never found. The cabin was empty by the time
- 5:08Speaker 1: the rangers arrived. I gave his sketch as well. But
- 5:11Speaker 1: it's been three years now and I still carry the
- 5:14Speaker 1: scars of that time. I took a solo trip to
- 5:22Speaker 1: a quiet island close to Hawaii, craving some peace and solitude.
- 5:27Speaker 1: The island was a paradise untouched by the usual tourist rush.
- 5:32Speaker 1: I rented a small bungalow near the beach, its white
- 5:35Speaker 1: walls gleaming under the tropical sun. After spending the day
- 5:38Speaker 1: exploring the lush greenery and pristine waters, I decided to
- 5:42Speaker 1: venture out alone at night and sit on the beach.
- 5:45Speaker 2: It was warm and soothing.
- 5:47Speaker 1: I settled on the sand, listening to the rhythmic sound
- 5:50Speaker 1: of the ocean, and then I heard it, A strange
- 5:53Speaker 1: whistling call, a woman's voice carried by the wind. It
- 6:00Speaker 1: was hauntingly beautiful, yet it sent a shiver down my spine.
- 6:05Speaker 3: Hello, is anyone there?
- 6:10Speaker 1: The whistling stopped suddenly. I shook off the uneasy feeling
- 6:14Speaker 1: and told myself it was just the wind. But then
- 6:17Speaker 1: it started again, closer.
- 6:19Speaker 2: This time.
- 6:20Speaker 1: I stood up, scanning the dark beach, but saw no one.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Who's there?
- 6:27Speaker 1: My voice wavered. The whistling stopped abruptly, and I felt
- 6:31Speaker 1: a chill. Despite the warm night, I decided to head
- 6:35Speaker 1: back to my bungalow, but as I turned, I saw
- 6:38Speaker 1: footsteps in the sand, leading away from where I had
- 6:41Speaker 1: been sitting. They were small, like a woman's and fresh.
- 6:46Speaker 1: My heart pounded, but I decided to follow them. They
- 6:49Speaker 1: led to the water's edge and then vanished. A cold
- 6:53Speaker 1: sweat broke out of my skin. I turned and started
- 6:56Speaker 1: walking quickly back to my bungalow. Halfway there, I heard
- 7:00Speaker 1: the whistling again, this time directly behind me.
- 7:04Speaker 2: I spun around, but no one was there.
- 7:07Speaker 1: The footsteps reappeared, leaning towards me, stopping just a few
- 7:11Speaker 1: feet away. I could feel eyes on me, watching, waiting.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Panic surged through me, and I broke out into a run.
- 7:21Speaker 1: The sand slowed me down, my feet sinking with each step.
- 7:25Speaker 1: I glanced back and saw a shadowy figure standing at
- 7:28Speaker 1: the water's edge, barely visible.
- 7:30Speaker 2: In the moonlight. It was a woman, her long, dark
- 7:33Speaker 2: hair flowing in the breeze.
- 7:35Speaker 1: She raised a hand and the whistling grew louder, more insistent.
- 7:40Speaker 1: I tripped and fell, scraping my knees and hands on
- 7:43Speaker 1: the rough sand.
- 7:44Speaker 2: Pain shot through me. Then I scrambled to my feet
- 7:47Speaker 2: and kept running.
- 7:49Speaker 1: I reached the bungalow, slammed the door shut, and locked it.
- 7:52Speaker 1: My breathing was heavy and my heart felt like it
- 7:55Speaker 1: would burst out of my chest. I backed away from
- 7:58Speaker 1: the door, clutching my leading hands.
- 8:04Speaker 3: What the hell is happening?
- 8:07Speaker 1: I stumbled into the bathroom to wash my wounds. The
- 8:10Speaker 1: tap water was icy cold, and the shock of it
- 8:13Speaker 1: calmed me slightly. As I cleaned the scrapes, I heard
- 8:17Speaker 1: the whistling again, muffled but clear. I froze, staring at
- 8:22Speaker 1: my reflection in the mirror. Behind me, the shower curtain
- 8:26Speaker 1: moved slightly, as if someone had brushed against it. Slowly,
- 8:31Speaker 1: I turned, holding my breath. The curtains stopped moving. I
- 8:35Speaker 1: reached out with a trembling hand and yanked it aside.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Nothing. The whistling stopped.
- 8:41Speaker 1: I backed out, but this time, as soon as I
- 8:44Speaker 1: looked into the mirror instead of my reflection, I saw
- 8:47Speaker 1: a woman, skin parched like charcoal, eyes bloodshot, red, dark,
- 8:53Speaker 1: long hair floating in the air and teeth like scissors.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I froze, unable to believe my eyes. The woman opened
- 9:02Speaker 1: her mouth to say something, and that is when I
- 9:04Speaker 1: started hearing the whistling again. I yelled at the top
- 9:08Speaker 1: of my voice and ran from the bathroom. The rooms
- 9:11Speaker 1: suddenly felt suffocatingly small. I made my way to the
- 9:15Speaker 1: living room and turned on all the lights. The brightness
- 9:19Speaker 1: was a relief. I sat on the couch, knees drawn
- 9:22Speaker 1: to my chest and tried to think. My mind raised,
- 9:26Speaker 1: searching for a rational explanation that came up empty, and
- 9:30Speaker 1: then I fainted. I was woken up by an elderly
- 9:34Speaker 1: staff lady who found me shivering. She offered me a
- 9:37Speaker 1: blanket and comforted me. It was then I started recounting
- 9:41Speaker 1: the night's events. Her face grew graver as she quietly
- 9:45Speaker 1: listened to me.
- 9:48Speaker 3: You harden now. PoCA Maiden, it's a century old legend.
- 9:53Speaker 3: She was a woman who lost her love to the
- 9:55Speaker 3: sea and roams the island. It is rumored that she's
- 10:01Speaker 3: hurt by people before they would drown themselves. Those who
- 10:06Speaker 3: hear her are said to be in great danger. Despite
- 10:11Speaker 3: what you might think, she must have saved you last
- 10:15Speaker 3: night at the beach.
- 10:17Speaker 1: My heart pounded in my chest. I couldn't believe that
- 10:20Speaker 1: the spirit of whatever I saw had actually saved me somehow.
- 10:24Speaker 1: I followed the old maid that afternoon, who took me
- 10:27Speaker 1: for a short hike.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Close to the bungalow.
- 10:30Speaker 1: Atop a small hill, there was a shrine which the
- 10:33Speaker 1: locals had dedicated to the Nelpaka Maiden. I offered flowers
- 10:38Speaker 1: and lit a candle there, offering her peace. I broke
- 10:44Speaker 1: up with my girlfriend of seven years and was at
- 10:46Speaker 1: my lowest, so to.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Clear my mind, I thought of going on a solo hike.
- 10:50Speaker 1: The plan was simple, a one day hike, camp by
- 10:53Speaker 1: the famous Blackstone Lake and return the next day. The
- 10:56Speaker 1: trail wound through the dense forest, sunlight filled through the leaves.
- 11:01Speaker 1: I felt at peace for the first time in weeks.
- 11:04Speaker 1: But as I approached the lake, I came across a man.
- 11:07Speaker 1: His clothes were tattered, his hair wild, and he had
- 11:10Speaker 1: a nervous tick, a constant twitch in his left eye,
- 11:13Speaker 1: and an unsettling habit of scratching his neck until it bled.
- 11:17Speaker 2: His eyes locked onto mine as he crossed me.
- 11:20Speaker 1: You here to enjoy nature or to ruin it, I
- 11:24Speaker 1: assured him. I was there to hike in camp. He
- 11:27Speaker 1: stepped closer, his breath hot and sour. You respect nature
- 11:31Speaker 1: and it rewards you. You harm this place, and I
- 11:35Speaker 1: kill you. I laughed, only to realize that he looked
- 11:39Speaker 1: dead serious. He stared at me a moment longer before
- 11:42Speaker 1: turning and disappearing into the woods. I stood there, heart pounding,
- 11:47Speaker 1: until I was sure he was gone. The lake was beautiful.
- 11:51Speaker 1: I set up my tent and built a small fire.
- 11:54Speaker 1: As the sun dipped below the horizon, another group arrived,
- 11:57Speaker 1: setting up their camp a bit far from my mind,
- 12:00Speaker 1: four of them, two guys and two girls, laughing and
- 12:04Speaker 1: chatting rather loudly.
- 12:06Speaker 2: I crawled into.
- 12:07Speaker 1: My sleeping bag, soon read a book and tried to
- 12:10Speaker 1: sleep over their loud talking, which echoed in the nature.
- 12:13Speaker 1: But then everything changed. I woke to screams, piercing the
- 12:18Speaker 1: night like a knife. I scrambled out of my tent,
- 12:22Speaker 1: heart racing, unable to understand what had happened. There was
- 12:26Speaker 1: chaos in the other camp, and for a moment I
- 12:28Speaker 1: thought that they might have been attacked by a bear.
- 12:31Speaker 1: But in the moonlight I saw him, the crazy man,
- 12:35Speaker 1: attacking the other campers.
- 12:37Speaker 2: He moved with a terrifying precision.
- 12:40Speaker 1: The first camper, a guy, tried to fend him off,
- 12:43Speaker 1: but was overpowered.
- 12:44Speaker 2: The man drove a knife into his chest.
- 12:47Speaker 1: The guy's screams turned to gurgles, his blood poured from
- 12:50Speaker 1: his mouth. The second camper, one of the girls, ran
- 12:54Speaker 1: for the trees. He caught her, easily, dragging her back
- 12:57Speaker 1: by her hair. Her shrieks echoed in the night as
- 13:01Speaker 1: he bashed her head against.
- 13:02Speaker 2: A rock until she fell silent. Oh my god, Oh
- 13:05Speaker 2: my god. I clamped my hand over my mouth, shocked.
- 13:10Speaker 1: The other two campers tried to flee, but the man
- 13:12Speaker 1: was relentless.
- 13:14Speaker 2: He threw a knife, hitting the second guy in the back.
- 13:17Speaker 1: He collapsed, writhing in pain as the man approached and
- 13:20Speaker 1: finished him off with a brutal stomp to the skull.
- 13:23Speaker 1: The last girl ran in my direction while screaming for help,
- 13:27Speaker 1: but she tripped, turning her ankle. She crawled, but he
- 13:31Speaker 1: was on her in seconds. He lifted her by the
- 13:34Speaker 1: throat and slashed at her neck with his sharp knife.
- 13:38Speaker 1: Her body convulsed before going limp. I crouched behind a tree,
- 13:42Speaker 1: watching him quietly. The crazy man stood amidst the carnage,
- 13:47Speaker 1: chest heaving eye scanning the area. Then, as if sensing
- 13:51Speaker 1: my presence, he turned and looked directly at me.
- 13:55Speaker 2: No, please, no. I took off, running blindly through the forest.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Branches clouded my face, roots tripped me, but adrenaline kept
- 14:04Speaker 1: me moving Behind me, I heard him crashing through the underbrush,
- 14:08Speaker 1: his ragged breath getting closer. I stumbled and fell, pain
- 14:12Speaker 1: exploding in my ankle. I crawled into a thicket, pulling
- 14:16Speaker 1: leaves and branches over myself, trying to disappear. But footsteps
- 14:21Speaker 1: grew louder, stomping just feet from my hiding spot.
- 14:25Speaker 2: I could hear him muttering, scratching his neck. I know
- 14:28Speaker 2: you're here. Come out, Come out.
- 14:32Speaker 1: I held my breath, biting down on my lip to
- 14:35Speaker 1: keep from making a sound.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Do not worry. I won't hurt you.
- 14:39Speaker 1: They littered the nature and suffered you.
- 14:43Speaker 2: You have nothing to fear.
- 14:45Speaker 1: After what felt like an eternity, he moved on his footsteps,
- 14:49Speaker 1: slowly fading into the distance. I stayed hidden for some
- 14:52Speaker 1: hours until the sky began to lighten. I limped back
- 14:56Speaker 1: to the lake, where the campsite was now a gruesome scene.
- 15:00Speaker 1: Bodies of the campers lay ahead, where they had fallen,
- 15:02Speaker 1: blood soaking into the earth while two bear cubs devoured
- 15:06Speaker 1: over them.
- 15:07Speaker 2: I did not wait.
- 15:09Speaker 1: I stumbled upon a small ranger station along the way
- 15:12Speaker 1: and collapsed, babbling about the attack. They called the authorities,
- 15:16Speaker 1: who swarmed the area searching for the man. It was
- 15:20Speaker 1: all over the news, but surprisingly they never found him.
- 15:24Speaker 1: They said that he was a deranged man who attacked
- 15:26Speaker 1: the travelers who harmed nature, but he had never killed before.
- 15:30Speaker 1: A manhunt began, but he was never found.
