It was the summer before the 7th grade. I was about 12 years old and I was excited about going to my first sleep away camp for 2 weeks by myself. The day I got to the campsite, there were millions of other girls like me and I got assigned to a cabin with 5 other girls. On the first night of camp, we had a campfire and our cabin counselor told us about a lone haunted cabin smack in the middle of the woods. He told us of how a girl died in the cabin bathroom in some freak accident, and she came every summer to haunt that very cabin she died in. Of course, most of the girls were skeptical and we decided that night, after lights out, we'd check out the boarded up cabin. We were told not to go anywhere near the woods and anywhere near that cabin, but of course, we were curious and of course, we were bored!
So about a few hours after lights out (we stayed up until the counselor went to bed), it was about 1 am, the 6 of us grabbed flashlights and dressed in dark sweats and snuck out of the cabin very quietly. It took us 10 minutes to run to the cabin in the middle of the woods. Sure enough when we got there, we could see the police-sign "do not cross" all around the cabin. The windows and doors were boarded up but we broke down the door and snuck in. Everything inside the cabin had been ripped apart and torn down... And there weren't even any ground carpet or anything, it was a dirt floor. But there was one small round table in the middle of the ground floor and we all sat around it. We joined hands and waited for a sign in the dark. The next thing we know, after about 2 minutes of silence, there were loud tapping noises from the table! We all screamed and got up. I flipped on the switch on the cabin wall and all around where were sitting in a circle, there were TWO sets of footprints. It couldn't been any of us, all 6 of us were joining hands and none of us got up.
After we ran out of the room we went into the bathroom that was right next to the cabin. The bathroom door was also boarded up but we all smashed it down because we were curious. We opened the door and flipped on the switch and on the dirty bathroom mirror there was the letter 'J' in dried smeared blood. Right when we saw that, we just ran out of there. It was the scariest experience of my life.
I haven't read the other comments, I have a feeling mostof them agree with me.
Why would a boarded up cabin still have eletricty? The smeared J in "blood" is probadly a smeared J in red paint.
I agree with whoeevr stated that the camp would not let counslers tell young campers about a true death at a camp, and if that really happened, it would not be a fire pit tale, and that cabin would of been torn down years before.
It's a good ghost story, to me it sounds like a disney spun movie.
