Cemetery Cold Spots

Back in August 2004, myself and three of my friends traveled to a cemetery in Connecticut. It is close to my home, so I figured we may as well check it out, have a good scare, and come home. Well, we got a lot more than we bargained for. My dad and friend had gone into the cemetery the previous year and noted that they were very drawn to an old oak tree that's there off the far right of the cemetery. They also stated they felt the temperature drop intensely. I figured it was all in their minds and decided to check it out for myself. So we go in and start looking around and snapping photos with my friend's digital camera. I would have included pictures, but they didn't come out. It was just blackness until we were out of the cemetery even though it was only 6 at night and still pretty light outside. We were looking around and strangely we all kind of met up at that tree. I'm telling you, as God is my witness, there was such a significant drop in the temperature my friend and I clung together to warm up. We stood together while the two guys that came with us climbed a little into the tree to take aerial shots of the cemetery. Suddenly, I felt something touch my elbow; a light squeeze. I screamed and started running.

The two guys calmed me down and we walked to the treeline. Suddenly, we heard something that was close to someone walking through the woods. Not animal sounds, but a definite person walking. When we turned to look towards a tall pine tree, we heard the steps increase to running and then silence. We walked towards the steps and under bent down saplings came upon three stones that were unmarked. We decided it was a great time to leave. As we looked up towards the exit, we saw a white form, not a person, but just this white form about twenty feet in front of us. Just as soon as it had appeared, it disappeared. We left. The next day, the gates to the cemetery were closed, and just recently reopened a few weeks ago.
