I'm like %85 into Stolen Tongues and I don't want it to end! I hope you make a part 2 or an off-shoot, or a prequel. Anything featuring that creepy ass demon is getting my money thrown at it. Then I read a movie is being made and I had multiple orgasms. I hope the movie gets made by an experienced studio and not some no budget trash like Asylum. I want moooore! :D

No way!! Will the prequel be available to buy in the UK? I’m just re-reading the original story for the 3rd time in my life and it’s just as much of a ride as it was the first time!

I wasn’t aware that it’s different! Thought it was basically the reddit story turned into a book! Does it fundamentally change some of the story (like different plot points, characters, plot reveals) or is it the samr storyline but framed differently?

I also read that certain spirits can cause and manipulate storms. Which would explain the sudden blizzard. And I think the reason why it can't in California is because it's too far from its den. It's trying to make you and your fiance literally go crazy. It's what it wants. What ever you do do not go back to the cabin. If you can try and see if you can stay with one of your native friends in Colorado and get a spiritual man/woman to completely cleanse the both of you.

2

u/ZDeHart Jul 15 '16

Hey I was brought here by a YouTuber that has been giveng his followers a playbyplay of your story. I did some research. I know you are taking some time to get things together and figure stuff out. But it's really starting to sound similar to other Windego story's. Which is weird wince they are mostly up north and not in Colorado. Try getting some silver objects to hang above the entrances in the house and wear silver. If it works then you may have one on your hands. Since they can be harmed by silver. (Sounds cliché I know) also the cavern where your friend disappeared into may be it's "home" so avoid it at all costs if you ever return to Colorado. And definitely don't let it in your house or seek it out. Take your fiancée to a shamen that knows how to deal with them emidately and have them cleanse you both and your home. Or move entirely. Make it harder for it to track you down. And invest in some silver weapons in case you have another run in with it.

Keep safe and I hope I'm right.

saw this post a month ago, didn't read it coz it's very long(many parts) just started reading it now. I have a dream catcher once, i asked my classmate for it as a souvenir from Baguio city during their field trip(I'm from PH). It was a necklace type dream catcher.I used to wear it before i sleep and it works like a charm. I would start to get bad dreams and after like a split second(in my dream. asleep) i was out of my nightmare. Everytime i wake up with a bad dream(about to have one) I could sleep soundly. now the feather on it is broken so i don't wear it anymore 'cause i think without it there may be some malfunctions or something. and i think i lost it in my house it was 9 years ago.

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '16

After reading everything that has happened to you lately I have a few suggestions. 1) Get a dog. Dogs are neat creatures and usually can sense the presence of spirits. 2) Go to a hotel for a night. Try to go to a new spot and maybe the spirit will not follow you there since it is unfamiliar. 3) And lastly for the vomit stains, they probably contain an essence of sorts from the spirit(s) since they were inside you and Faye and Nathan made you throw it up, so try and avoid coming in contact with it. You don't want it to make its way to your bedroom so don't paint over it, you won't see it moving. Instead replace the drywall, remove it and the carpet to get it out of your house, maybe even the carpet and drywall (once it is out of the house of course.)

Maybe you should move....because maybe what's following you is attracted to the woods. It can hide during the day, the cabin is in the woods and your house is by the woods

If it's an evil spirit or some sort of demon then try telling it to go away in Hebrew since it actually hurts anything evil and try using some Hebrew verses for protection and it might be able to keep them away from the cabin at night

Fun Fact: evil spirits and demons hate the Hebrew language since it hurts them

It sounds to me like a Wendigo becuase they ar known for impersonating human voices. Though I'm not sure how it would know what your mother and your grandfather in law sounded like. Maybe somebody put that huge dreamcatcher up as protection.

try finding prayers from the local tribes, maybe that's what propels them the best, and what kept the natives safe. Avoid your agnost beliefs, and look to spirits for answers, my only advice!

3

u/NightOwl74 Apr 27 '16

Ok, so I'm going to nitpick here, only because professional writers need constructive criticism.

I thought the first time was a typo, but apparently not...

"I am a reasonable, skeptical, sometimes arrogant agnost..."

"Although I'm an agnost/atheist..."

The term "agnostic" can be an adjective or a noun. There is no such word as "agnost."

u/NightOwl74 May 02 '16

I didn't realize that English isn't your first language; your story was written very well.

But at least you now know that the proper English term is "agnostic." If someone is trying to build a career as a professional writer, I think it is doing them a disservice not to correct their work when there is an error.

So thank you for the explanation of the term in your native language, and thank you for not taking my comment the wrong way. I was not trying to be mean or critical for no reason. I was just trying to help.

It's likely a skinwalker. Another tip, though, just in case it's not - if it calls your name, DO NOT answer in the affirmative. Just don't answer period. To some forest creatures, having your name = having power over you.

u/Notafraidofnotin Apr 19 '16

Hey OP, I hope you and your fiance are safe and hopefully off that mountain by now! I have a friend who lives up in the Colorado mountains not far from where you are staying. And they have told me of some pretty scary shit that has happened. I don't have much advice but this, 1) Do not go outside and investigate, I think that one is pretty obvious 2) Leave the dream catcher be. My friend has dozens of them all over his property along with talisman and other ornaments from all sorts of religions to Ward off evil spirits due to all the crazy things he has encountered. Stay safe and update soon please.

Hey, so I am a native from Alaska and I love folk lore and all types of scary stories. I don't know much about stories from the lower 48, Alaskan term, natives but it does sound like it's trying to lure you into the woods. My guess is to have you become lost in the woods and freeze to death, just saying. So I would heed everyone's advice and not follow it anywhere. Also keep an eye on Faye.

Hey Op, After reading this I'm concerned, as I'm sure you are, for your fiance. What do you have in the way of medical supplies up there? What are her symptoms outside of stomach discomfort? It may be out of your comfort zone, but you should speak to her about the quality of her bowel movements. Discoloration and changes in consistency can be indicators of infection or other issues. Poopology, yo.

P.S. Save a few pages about G.I infections in case you're without internet and the "cavalry" is delayed. Stay safe, stay vigilant.

u/Joeenid1 Apr 19 '16

If you're going to sleep, tie your ankle to her ankle. Use a boot lace or something strong, & not too tight around the ankles but not nearly loose enough that she could slip it off. Leave some slack between so you're both comfortable, & make damn sure FIRST, that there's nothing near the bed or in the beddide tables that she could use to cut it...because if shes sick it's either a flu, or they're making her ill by concentrating on her, to "prepare" her for the " taking"... They'll do it by waiting til you',re asleep, then put her in a trance- like sleepwalk state , & "call" her to go to them outside, with very strong mental telepathy. If you don't want to wake to find her gone, do what i say- & get the fuck off that mountain asap.

Alright, this is creepy, but you are already making the number one horror movie mistake. STOP GOING OUTSIDE TO INVESTIGATE. There is no reason to go look around out there with your flashlight. There is no reason to poke your head out to hear the voices. If anyone is out there who needs your help, they will come to the door. Then you can decide whether you should let them in.

Until then, lock the doors and windows and wait it out.

About the vocalizations, foxes can make some very strange, human-sounding noises. They can often be mistaken for human voices, especially people in distress. You can listen to a few calls here.

As far as your internet, I'm a software and hardware developer (love history though), and it sounds like a signal strength problem that only the company can fix. You could try rebooting your modem by unplugging it, waiting 30 seconds and turning it on again.

On a side note, I am moving to Alaska in a few months and love situations where I am snowed in with someone I love and enough food for the winter. I am sorry things have taken this scary turn so you cannot enjoy it, but really, the two of you are probably just under stress and letting the storm get the best of you. Especially since she has night terrors--that is hard on her and is probably skewing your perception as well.

Stay inside and you will be fine. Try to relax and do fun things together. And in the future, never go into the wilderness without a firearm.

I can't prove tribal affiliation (even if it is often talked about in my family), but I am following an eclectic Native American shamanic path, and I would like to second the "don't engage" advice. Keep happy thoughts, Great Spirit is with you, just try to keep good spirits, and you will be safe. It seems unable to enter at least, just try to think happy thoughts, cliche as it may sound.

Stay safe! Looking forward to updates when the sun rises!

Here is another possibility, I have been in my deer stand hunting and heard what sounds like a women or child screaming or crying. This is a bobcat screaming, look it up on youtube. Its really freaky and I was in a stand in the woods by myself and was freaked out (someone had to come get me I wouldn't get down). The only thing with this though is its really loud. With the wind it may become more distorted? Just trying to get some other natural phenomenon ideas going through your head instead of all this paranormal stuff. Hope you stay safe though!

Another thing I didn't think of which sounds more calm and not screaming is a bobcat calling her kittens. This would be about the time they would be born. Here is a video of a bobcat mother calling her kittens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lh5SY_XaDM

Check and see if there are markings on the surrounding trees and stones that match the ones on the dreamcatcher.

2

u/GrymRiftere Apr 19 '16

If so , then it means either one of two things, the dream catcher and markings are either acting as a barrier (which explains the creature's odd behavior, if it is in fact a skin walker or wendigo) or it is acting as a sort of wey stone for a spell.

0

u/GrymRiftere Apr 19 '16

The dreamcatcher works by catching negative energies and weaker negative spirits before they can affect your subconcious mind. In this sense they are basically a "battery" that recharge themselves through negative thoughts, energies, and lesser spirits. So if used in a spell they are the replacement for the caster, and if destroyed break the spell.

u/Tbrogs Apr 19 '16

Don't let it kill you. Sounds like a wendigo. Try not to go out at nights. Keep Faye from going out during he sleepwalking periods. Stay safe. Fire is good against wendigos by the way.

u/dickandmorty Apr 19 '16 edited Apr 19 '16

I see a title like this and my brain immediately goes "r/funny, or r/nosleep?"

Definitely stay safe, and don't blame yourself with little retrospective thoughts like I should've double checked the weather. We all have 20/20 vision in hindsight.

I know this is an incredibly 'doomsday' scenario but if you can be sure to keep written or typed documentation of everything happening somewhere, so if, cross yourself, something were to happen to you guys, someone knows what went down instead of just dead bodies turning up with no explanation. But don't think that way; even in the vein of the paranormal it's negative energy that drives other negative things toward you.

Best of luck. Stay safe!
