horror and park ranger stories. Three Appalachian rangers with ninety-one years of service between them walked away from the job rather than sign confidentiality agreements about what happened to them underground. True scary stories and creepy stories submitted to Obscure Nights. Missing 411. Wilderness horror. Unexplained.
Account 1 — A ranger doing a routine gate check in the Smokies heard a colleague calling for help from deeper inside. That colleague was outside at the truck. Then the voice used his first name. He turned around and started walking out, and the voice changed — it started using his own. His lamp died eighty metres from the entrance and he did the rest with his palm on raw limestone, while his own voice talked to him from four metres back.
Account 2 — Two rangers investigating impacts behind a wall sealed in the eighties found the gap at the top measured eleven inches by four. Something moved on the other side. When she put her hand flat on the rock, something touched it. Then an arm came through that gap, past the elbow, and felt along the wall for them. Four days later they found wet handprints on the floor on their side of the wall, leading away from it.
Account 3 — A ranger with thirty-one years doing an overnight survey found a second set of tracks that began in the middle of a mud floor and followed his own. His radio came on and the night dispatcher told him to come out, because he wasn't alone. He ran and broke three ribs. The mapping unit recorded a second track four metres off his — and when he fell, it stopped for forty seconds and waited.
