Experienced on or around July 27th, 2011 - by

Ever since I was 14 I have often gone for walks at night on my road. Mostly because there isn't any vehicles around and it's more peaceful.
One time while I was walking I could hear gravel, as though someone was walking on the side of the road. I stopped, thinking it was me but it kept going. I turned around to make sure my sister or someone wasn't following me but there was no one there. I continued walking as though nothing had happened but when I did I saw on the bank in the woods was a black shadow thing that looked like a small bear and it ran towards me. I was terrified and couldn't move but as soon as it had gotten to the road it vanished. I was shaken about this and went back home as fast as I could. The next day was a school day and I was walking home from my bus stop(which is the same road) in daylight and I had music playing. Just as I got to the place where I saw the shadow I felt like someone was watching me so I looked up into the woods and at the very top of the hill far away from me I saw two figures that looked like people in white clothing and they were running around and then they vanished.
A few nights later my friend came over and we sometimes would talk about our weird experiences so just for fun we went up in my driveway and sat down next to my mailbox. On the other side of the road was the woods where I kept seeing things, although not in the same spot but further up. The street light was shining on the woods so we could kind of see. While me and my friend were talking I saw a shadow, it was so large that it blocked out the entire light and then it darted away fast. I didn't say anything to my friend because I didn't want her to say she saw something she didn't just because I saw it. So then I started asking it to show a sign that it was there, and then I saw the shadow again and this time she said grabbed my arm and asked me if I saw it. I then asked it if it could throw a rock to show that it was there but not to hurt us. A second later we heard a rock hit off of the pavement but I wanted more so I asked it to do it again but throw it closer just then I saw a rock come flying towards us and land right in front of me. It scared my friend so bad that she ran down to the house. The next night I saw a very tall, thin shadow further down the road. It looked like it was pacing and then it stopped half way and turned its head all I could see was red eyes and it scared me so bad I went back home.
I continue to see the black shadow to this day although sometimes he is on his hands and knees and looks like a very thin, large dog. Other times it darts out of the woods very fast then goes back in. When I'm outside I get the feeling that I am being watched, my shirt gets pulled sometimes, my hair gets touch or sometimes something taps my shoulder. I still go for walks every night, although now I can't without my ipod so I can't hear it walk with me, and I will never go where I saw the shadow that first night.
