The thing in the woods
Something strange happened to me a couple of days ago and I need help understanding what it was.
For context I live in the rual Midwest and this story happened at dusk.
So I was exploring the tree line of the field by my house(which had recently been harvested) when I turned to leave. As I was leaving I saw a white flower on top of a corn stalk so I went to investigate it. As I got closer I relised that the flower wasn't there and neither was the cornstalk(The cornstalk I saw the flower on was tall. Like you couldnt miss it if you were far away). As I looked around I saw another flower on a tree. While I was looking at it I saw the movment of something with pitch black skin in the tree lines. Also it was high up in the tree line. Maybe 7 feet or so. I turned back and started running to get away from what I saw. When I was running I heard a branch snap behind me. As I got further from that spot I slowed down and started walking. I was about to leave the field when I saw another white flower hanging from a tree.
I don't know what to make from this encounter but if anyone does can you please let me know.
