Very Vaguely Creepy Part 3-- Bandit's Revenge

In My Humble Opinion
1

The other VVC threads (Original & The Sequel) are both quite long, so how about a new one?

I took my dog Bandit for his walk tonight, later than normal because of the pouring rain we had earlier. I just got back indoors a few minutes ago, and I have a very vague, creepy feeling.

Where I walk my dog is easily the most isolated spot in my neighborhood. I take him across the street, into a park. No streetlights, no lights at all. No close houses, nothing. The park is a very secluded spot. It is dark tonight, clouds overhead obscure the moon. My dog is leashed, and he is old and moves slow. He stops to pee, and then sniffs around a few trees. We pass by a big pine tree and my dog starts pulling me towards it…he is seriously sniffing the around the bottom branches at the base of the tree, I can’t see a thing because the branches are so close to the ground and the total darkness of the night makes everything shadowy. I pull on the leash to continue on our way, but Bandit is intent on what ever is under that tree. Maybe another dog has left his mark there, but usually Bandit checks those “marks” out and moves along. Under the tree is so black, and shapeless…Bandit keeps sniffing, sniffing, and goes further under the tree. I panic and pull harder and say forcefully “Bandit, come!” Like the well-behaved dog he is, Bandit finally pulls away from the tree. I get a shiver up my spine and walk quickly towards home. What was under the tree? Something…dead? Very vaguely creepy.

Maybe it was just a coon or a possum. I’m surprised he didn’t bark. I would think he’d bark if it was something…alive.

Know what’s really creepy? Just now, when i was showering, I was telling myself I had to find the Very Vaguely Creepy threads and revive them, becaues it’s my duty to (i contributed to both heavily).

What do I see when I log on? This!! What is the world coming to? Or am I just Jonathan Edwards or something?

VVC Object: My mom’s got pugs so she collects anything pug-shaped or decorated with a pug… she has some kind of life-size plaster casting of a pug which is kind of green and has blank red eyes. It’s not SUPPOSED to look like Zombie Pug From Hell but it does. It’s gonna come kill us all some night.

VVC Incident: Noon today. Sitting in the senior lunch room talking to classmates. Some of them go outside even though it looks like it’s gonna rain. “Wouldn’t it be funny if it started pouring the second they got out there?” It does. It is.

My dad had a little statue in his office when I was a kid. Scared the hell out of me.

It was a troll riding a pig. It was done in dark earthy colors, with a odd technique. It was carved out of clay as if it were faceted.

He’s still got it in his living room. It looks like it is watching me every time I see it.

My dad is creepy too, but that’s an entirely different story.

My dog’s name is Bandit too! :eek:

There’s a doll in my mum’s room that’s VVC - it stares at you wherever you go. But it never really bothered me until I was talking on the phone one (rather stormy) evening. Both me and my friend were working on a school project and having a rather philosophical discussion when the subject turned to death. Still not very creepy, but I got chills when my friend mentioned how weird it was to think you could die tommorow… because at the exact time she said that, I swear I saw the dolls eyes GLOW.
Of course, it was probably just the reflection of the lighting out the window… but I definitely got out of that room in a hurry.

I had a Ferret named Bandit. He was kinda smelly.
