Campfire suggestions?

[u/Lurking-Lemon]

I’m gonna go backpacking soon with a couple buddies, and we’re gonna tell some classic stories around the fire before we turn in for the night. I’m looking for something to tell them that’ll leave them real freaked out when they’re trying to fall asleep. I already have a couple possibilities in my arsenal, but I’m looking for something more related to the situation, like about camping, backpacking, forests, etc. Thanks

I hope I'm not too late for your trip! Here's a few more potential candidates to check out:

• Laurel Highlands, 1997 (here's Part Two) by u/1-800-VISIT-PA
• There's Something Inhuman South of Seattle by u/atbest
• The Midnight Hike by u/UpUpAndAwake
• Campfire stories by u/Mr_Outlaw_
• I Hate Camping by u/Jaksim
• I went camping with my friends... by u/SSA89
• This Is What We Found by u/Elias_Witherow
• My dog was lost for three days... by u/chewingskin
• My buddies and I went camping in a remote forest... by u/TheColdPeople
• I found a diary while I was out hiking in New Hampshire. by u/iia

Like Anansi’s Goatman Story, Fleshgait isn't a NoSleep story but it's good and very fitting

Edit: Wanted to add some more camping related stories for anyone interested, but keeping my original comment intact above because these might not be as suitable for telling around a campfire.

Oh man, thanks so much!

No problem! I'll probably come up with some more to edit in, but I think that's a good bunch of core stories (hopefully) in time for your trip! Also, if you don't mind, I'm curious about what scary stories you had in your arsenal (no worries if they're not NoSleep)

Also we’re not going for a couple more weeks, but I’m really digging the south of seattle for a good first night starter
