There are several interesting or creepy things that sometimes we come across, but one thing that creeps the hell out of me is when i find old dolls in the forest. I know it is just regular domestic garbage, but i find it extremely disturbing.

I found an old rusted out .22 repeater in a field. There's a hundred reasons that could've ended p there and none of them are good.

Strangest things, eh?

Complete couch

Recliner (nowhere near the couch)

Shot up cars (always makes a person question the activities that led to that particular moment)

A dark haired cloth doll

Random pieces of old lumber

The odd piece of clothing

A *VERY* rusted dagger, Mother of Pearl grip, half of which was missing.

I chose to not take any of the items, as they were obviously where they were for a reason, and I didn't want to mess with Karma.

I nearly always find porn magazines in the woods. What is that all about?!? Actually don't answer that...

Yeah, me too. I think there's some kind of backwoods porn repression being acted out.

If you're in the woods anywhere near a truck stop or rest station, you're almost guaranteed to find some porn, used condoms, shit stained undies, empty N20 cartridges, broken meth bubbles, pocket pussy/dildos and all other sorts of mean, nasty things just layin around.

But yeah, finding ripped up, dirty children's clothes by the tracks or in the woods is always slightly off-putting.

Me & 65 (with the gun tatted on his face; if ya know him, ya can't miss him) were hangin' in in the woods near Boulder (by the creek) chillin', drinkin' with some some dumb 16 year old kid, and we got up to leave... and then we spotted a used lotion bottle an a rubber glove as we were leaving.... fucking creepy. We decided that was the most disturbing thin we'd ever seen at a drinking spot behind the bushes in the city limits. Back in 2011, probably, when this happened.

Almost five years ago while remote camping in Lassen, some friends and I, all in various stages of psychedelic wonderland, were exploring a long since abandoned farm by light of the moon. After determining that it had been neglected for at least two decades, we opened up the primary living cabin. Oddly enough, we found dusty bootprints, recent trash, and a couch someone had likely been sleeping on. It was all kind of spooky and fun, until we found a 2ft x 2ft wooden cross adorned with intricately hand-carved insignia, the likes of which I'd never seen. The blood soaked elastic straps affixed to the X suggested animal sacrifice.

That one's the winner for creepy factor

well, the coolest thing i have ever found in the woods would probably have to be either a bowling ball, a dog (he had no collar, and appeared to be starved nearly to death, i decided to take him in, his new name is mr. jenkins, i believe he is some sort of cur, but he was thin even for a cur) and countless old glass bottles.

creepiest...i always find the finding of animal bones kinda creepy, old dolls, i found a noose hanging from a tree once....that was sketchy as fuck.

i have found a lot of cool/creepy shit while fishing, shopping carts under the water, several fishing poles, and a .22 rifle. yup.

I stumbled across an old drinking spot with a ton of really old beer cans and liquor bottles. And and old rickety structure with a bunch of broken antique mason jars outside if it. We thought it might have been a moonshine shack during prohibition.

Like, Dullsville, man...
I used to live out in the boonies in a small town in Maine, back in the mid-80s. I spent most of my time there exploring the forests. I found all kinds of junk, including an old dump full of interesting glass bottles, odd rusty metal things, and a rusted license plate from the 1930s (can't remember the exact year, anymore).
Eventually, my BF and I decided to go explore down by the river. First, we found an old car (60s or 70s model, if I recall correctly) parked in a secluded spot away from the trails we were on, and all its doors were wide open. Trees had begun growing up all around it, so it had been there for some time. We then found the rotting remains of a huge turtle hanging by its tail from a small tree off to the side of trail that led to the riverbank. That gave us the creeps. But then later on, my BF, who was walking down a trail in front of me, saw some other animal that had been strapped to a tree and was mutilated to the point that she couldn't tell what kind of animal it was. I didn't see it at all, because she screamed and ran past me, so I didn't stick around to find out what was back there, either. I remember telling my parents that something sinister was going on there, but as usual, they didn't do anything except tell us not to go back there anymore.
