Skilled Investigator
When I was around 18, my friends and I were road tripping around some of the country back roads (no I wasn't drinking). We decided to go down a road near some docks at the Mississippi River near Hannibal MO. No one was there and it was pretty dark. The gravel road ended in a circle (like a redneck roundabout) and we decided to drive to the far end of it. As soon as I parked, out of nowhere, I felt this horrible chill run down my back as if something was telling me I shouldn't be there. I didn't say a word but threw my car into drive and fishtailed to face the roundabout exit and floored the gas peddle on the way out. A few weeks later we heard something about a couple who had been shot and found face down in the water near the spot where we were. I can't find the news story at the moment, but it would have been sometime in 1992 or early 1993. It was right outside of Palmyra MO near the Mississippi river between Hannibal and Quincy Il. I don't believe in dead people coming back to visit, but I do believe that we might be deceived from time to time by something sinister.
