#38: Watch Out for Dogs in Trees
A man noticed his dog growling at the backyard tree late at night. When he went outside to check, he shone a flashlight upward—and saw glowing red eyes staring back. What he saw looked like a massive dog perched unnaturally in the branches. He blinked, the figure vanished, and the eyes were gone. Terrified, he brought his dog inside and locked the doors.
Later, he tried to reason it out. Maybe it was a Husky that had climbed the tree, and the red glow was just light reflecting off its eyes. But the tree was high, and the branches wouldn’t support that much weight. He still doesn’t know what he saw. Whether it was an actual creature or something from another realm, it made him keep his backyard lights on from that day forward. Some things are better left in the dark.
