The Swing That Swung By Itself
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The cabin used to be part of a camp, but the campgrounds had long since entered a state of disarray and very soon after visitors altogether stopped coming. Naturally, stories of hauntings, ghosts, and mysterious disappearances soon followed, uncorroborated of course, and people steered further and further away. One story, however, is true. The story of Johnny. An eight year old boy who lived in a house on the very site of this cabin in a time before Camp Hickory. In fact, the nearby lake was once a small pond in neighborhood where Johnny lived. A town called Hickory. In the mid 1950s, Hickory, was a place where the people who lived there were steel mill workers and military personnel. Their children were the byproduct of the baby boomer generation. Johnny was one of these children who lived at 13 Oak Spring lane, and while most of these children lived normal lives, Johnny’s story is much grimmer. Like many men who came back after the war, Johnny’s father, without any mental health services available, turned to the only mental health remedy he knew; alcohol. They say that one day in a particular frenzy, Johnny’s father accidentally killed the boy, however, there was much speculation about whether or not it was an accident. You see…the circumstances around Johnny’s death were…gruesome. No one in that little town could conceive of the horrific scene that befell the boy. Johnny’s father was arrested, his mother went crazy and was admitted, and the house itself became a pariah. At least until enough time had passed and the town managed to rebrand the location as an apartment complex in the 70s. That’s where this story begins. With another kid, just about your age who lived at the Oak Spring apartments in apartment 13.

Devil's Angels
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. It was a normal looking candle, with a flame glowing bright in the darkness. The townsfolk were confused about this development. Had someone taken up shelter there?

The Cabin
by: Dennis R. Humphreys (the DreamWriter) The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. That candle burned from then on, every night. Campers asked the park ranger about the place, wondering about the light. Some looked in the solitary window, but saw no one there and the door remained locked. There was a sign posted on the place... 'No Trespassing Condemned'. Concerned that the candle, not in a holder, might burn to its base and cause a fire, one that might spread from the cabin to the forest, visitors complained to the park service.

The Candle
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. Maya’s family had owned the campgrounds for about 15 years, and she remembers being a little girl when the previous owners told her parents, “Stay away from the cabin in the woods, especially if the candle is lit.” They had always thought it was privately owned by someone, which is why it was set back in the woods, unlike the other cabins that surrounded the lake, until they finally looked at it and realized that no one was there. So this year they decided to clean it up and rent it out like the others.

Flystrike
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The flame of orange and yellow had a strange, fine bluish undulation just over the top of the wick. Through the window bluish, almost iridescent, shadows danced on the stone walls within.

The Ghost Gate
"The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window." It was one of those dark blue nights that lay hushed and still. Any sudden movement threatened to shatter the cold, icy air. A three-quarter moon sailed in a cloudless sky. Its pale light dimly illuminated the track that meandered, here again, gone again, from the little pub in Goondaburra township to Glenmorris Station.

Why Zak Bagans is dangerous
Usually, I'm not an advocate or a fan of cancel culture but in this case or similar cases I'm ok with it. The reason I usually don't support cancel culture is because the cause of the canceling is that people just disagreed with the person or got offended. In this case the person in question is actually dangerous. I'll explain in this article why Zak Bagans is dangerous.
