In this episode of Tales of the Night, members of the military share some of the most unsettling experiences they had during their night shifts.
In the first story, a soldier stationed in the mountains of Mexico discovers why there's a guard post that no one wants to man. Deep in the forest, some sentries claim to have heard the laughter of a woman moving among the treetops… too high for anyone to be up there.
Next, we travel to Ecuador, where a recruit recalls a night shift at a barracks surrounded by a forest marked by soldier suicides and past executions. The instructors' warnings seemed exaggerated… until a voice in the darkness began calling him by his rank.
The third story takes place at that same barracks. During a foggy early morning, a soldier is relieved early by a comrade… or so he thinks. Hours later, he discovers that this comrade never left the dormitory.
And to close the episode, a story submitted by a community member from Tabasco. It all began with a strange encounter his grandfather had decades ago near a trail. Since then, something seems to have stayed with his family… something that still resurfaces today. Turn off the light, get comfortable… and let yourself be carried away by these new Tales of the Night.
