Anyone ever go out detecting and not feel like your alone. Ever feel like there is someone watching in the deep woods, in a field, or anywhere you are out detecting? What's your story.

Certainly! Thank goodness it never came to fruition. I usually pack just in case. You don't know who or what could be out there.

Exactly!! I am the same way

Oh yes. Some times it can be very unsettling.

Dad and I were out at a CW battle site once metal detecting and he was about 500 yards from me in a wood line. I was near some old trenches and was kneeled down digging a target whenever I got a eery feeling I was being watched. I looked around and didn't see anything so I kept digging. I began to feel uneasy again and the hair stood up on the back of my neck so I looked up and there was a silhouette of a soldier standing there just looking into the distance. I grabbed my shovel and ran like the wind towards where my dad was clear across a set of train tracks and through a wooded area. I got to him and he asked me why I was running for and I told him what I saw almost 500 yards away and he said so you weren't over by me a few minutes ago. I said no!!! He said that's weird cause I called your name and someone answered me when I asked hey dalton have you found anything!!!!

Very creepy! But honestly, in hind site, I think that kinda stuff is cool and gives a neat story.

It sure does. Creepy part was is dad had told me that he that he had heard something fairly close to him in the woods and had also seen what looked like me behind a tree digging and he had his headphones on so didnt hear a whole lot except when he asked did I find anything. He wasn't much into the paranormal/unexplained like I am so he shook it off as me just being busy digging a signal until 10 minutes later he seen me running up from the opposite direction looking like a ghostly Indian on the warpath!

"c_w 22, IF, you ever join Civil War Re-enactors like I was in the early 70's (Comp. I, 10th Va. Cavalry - Stonewall Jackson's Foot Cavalry of Shenandoah Valley of Virginia), you WILL experience "ghostly battles" at night. Gettysburg, Pa. is the MOST haunted battlefield(s) & town; scared 1st wife so bad , she said... "Ain't gonna go back THERE, again!" SO! we didn't...

Yea I've never been in a renactment before but have buddies that have tried getting me to join and I have heard some pretty creepy stories even about the smaller battlefields up here

Plenty of times I have felt that way. It is either me being watched or me being scared of it happening.

The only experience I have ever had at that site was near Devils Den and I felt what I can only describe as the worst sense of despair, sadness and fear all at once. It was near a small cave like opening and I have felt it only once again after that near a cemetery. I never wan't to feel it again and I know it was not my own emotions at play because it happened way to fast and I was not really feeling anything before that very moment. I am not a Re-enactor in any way. What I felt made me stop in my tracks.
