The Skinner
”The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night a candle burned in the window”. I listened to the monotonous voice of the “Top 13 scary forest stories” story teller drone on. I’ve heard this one already, hopefully this guy comes out with something new soon. I thought as I looked down at my phone to skip to a different podcast. I like to listen to scary stories on long drives, but lately nothings been doing it for me. I slowed my car down from 60 to 40 as a road sign read “SHARP CURVE AHEAD”. Driving down the snakey forested road adorned with memorial crosses draped in flowers and dressed in lights, 8 in total. They served as 8 extra warnings for those driving down this road, it’s funny how fast things can change. Huh “change” that’s what I’m out here for. I’ve never gone on a long trip alone, without my family or my boyfriend. I just wanna feel like I can accomplish something by myself and I crave feeling comfort in independence. Hopefully, this weekend is gonna help me with that.
