I Heard My Son Screaming in the Woods
Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
It was 6:47 PM when I heard it—a scream from the tree line behind our house, high and sharp and unmistakably my son's voice. He was supposed to be inside, doing homework. He was supposed to be safe. I ran toward the woods, calling his name, my heart pounding in my throat. I found him standing at the edge of the trees, his back to me, completely still. "What's wrong?" I asked. He turned around. He was smiling. "I didn't scream, Dad," he said. "I've been inside the whole time. Who did you hear?"
In this episode, we explore a first-person horror story about a parent who hears their child's voice coming from the woods—but the child is standing right beside them. Something in the forest has learned to mimic the people we love. And it's using their voices to lure us into the dark. Some sounds are not calls for help. They are traps. And the thing that mimics your child's scream knows exactly what it's doing.
