Re: Creepy stories about my home

Okay then, since you all seemed so interested!

======================================
(Pardon my English. It's not my first language)

This first one involves my uncle, whom for the purposes of this story shall be nameless. When I was really young, he went to visit a friend down south in Malacca and while there, he decided to visit a local mountain, Mount Opir. Now this mountain has a reputation for weird stuff happening. like, REALLY weird stuff. There's actually been several deaths there due to trees literally falling on loggers, tourists and hikers. And those were the ones that were reported in the news...

My uncle walked around the lower forests and visited the tourism office (now closed) and everything seemed fine. It was when he tried to came back that the weird stuff started happening. He said that, for some reason the forest path disappeared completely, forcing him to stumble under the trees for some time using the sun to navigate through the forest.

After about half an hour, the trees suddenly gave way to some sort of bluff where he can see the rest of the forest until the horizon, and it was then he knew that something was wrong. The area around the mountain has about a few houses and roads, but he saw nothing; just trees until the horizon.

My uncle prayed to God and turned back into the forest, hoping that he would get out by nightfall. After about several minutes of walking, he found the forest path again and after about half an hour he was back in the parking lot. To this day he says that there is "something" living on that mountain and that it is better to admire it from a distance.

The second one involves my relatives on my mother's side. They live deep in the countryside surrounded my rubber and palm oil plantations. One night, when they were all sleeping, they heard a 'tik-tang-tong' noise coming from the roof. Since their house was far from the nearest police station, no one wanted to come out and check what was going on.

It was only in the morning that they found out what was causing the noise: stones. Apparently they found small stones on the roof and assumed some prankster or a group of monkeys threw them up there during the night. Of course, some were not convinced (who ever heard of noiseless monkeys?) so one of the sons (or was it the father) decided to stay up for for the next night to catch anything that moves.

When the second night came and everyone was asleep, the one on watch stayed up outside the house waiting for the stones to fall again. And they did. Everyone inside the house heard it. The son/father? immediately began running here and there to catch the intruders. The thing is, while he was running, the stones still kept falling, and when he realized that he was the only one outside the house, the stones still kept falling.

It spooked everyone, and they immediately began praying, hoping that whatever was causing this would leave their home. The incident continued for a few more nights before stopping for good. Everyone wondered about it for weeks afterward: If there was no one outside the house, then who/what was throwing the stones onto their roof?

They talked about this to my family a few years back during the Hari Raya Holidays, and it was there that I picked up the story.

====================================

And that's it for now!

Maybe your uncle found a really good view of the forest where the trees hid all signs of humanity? If I was in the same situation, I'd have started panicking. I think.

The raining rocks could have been a prank. What goes up, must come down. The people throwing rocks might have been really far away from you. But then, if they were so far away, the rocks should have did some damage onto the roofs.

Or it could have been a really weird (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sy_XCrNxNeg) weather phenomenon. I dunno LOL ¯\(°_o)/¯

That would've been easy to say, if it weren't for the other things happening on the mountain.

About the raining rocks, it happened only at night and only on the roof of their house, and it continued on for several nights after. Until today they have no idea who could've done it. I'm guessing pranksters, but the father/son swore that there was nobody in the plantations or around the house. I don't even want to think what kind of guy would have the strength to throw those rocks while avoiding the head of the family.

That video is freaky. But we never get tornadoes around here. If it does, it would've been newsworthy. Anything that looks like a funnel cloud would have made primetime news since tropical countries rarely, if ever, have those things (I'm Malaysian BTW).

Yeah, the video doesn't exactly apply to you but weirder things than rocks have rained down from the sky before (live crabs, frogs, and fish). I still think a prankster is probably the most likely cause, given what we know about the world so far. It's not like the person had to throw the rocks by hand... they could have been testing a rock-throwing piston or something and they were doing it at night because there was less chance of injuring someone then than testing it during the day. I don't know. :(
