HOLY SHIT - after 2 years of remembering the context of this story and numerous youtube searches later, I finally stumbled across it again and it still, to this day, gives me goosebumps....A well deserved like and sub
I'm just gonna go with the idea that the dad and son are both in the "other" dimension now or whatever. That's all I can figure, unless everything has honestly gone back to normal and the writing was a sort of sendoff, but I don't see that being the case.
Nah I think the kid is now back with his family and hopefully for good though I would love to hear what the town people and the news say about this “Boy thought to be missing for 6 years return unharm and unaged could it be a mess up in the metric of the universe or is time travel really possible?”
I don't think the Mom is with them - she left the room crying early on. Either the Dad has been brought to some sort of pocket dimension with his son, or the boy was kidnapped/murdered and the Dad finally cracked. The mother falls apart realizing her husband has slipped into delusion of their son being there when he really wasn't.
this strongly reminds me of the film "The Flight of the Navigator", but in a really good way! I loved this story, it had really authentic emotion in it.
Just finished Widowers clock. I loved that story. My top five now are 1. Borrasca 2. Penpal 3. Widowers Clock 4. Alternate Reality 5. Tales from the Gas Station BTW you should do the left/right game
So Wesley traveled six years into the future, did he really write the words on his clothes and how? Whose footprints were all over the tree fort, ghosts? A lot of missing stuff. The story would be a hell of a lot better if the writer tied it all together in the end. Maybe an aging Wesley stuck in time wrote the message, and young Wesley was plucked from another timeline and placed in the timeline described in the end of the story, and the original Wesley is still lost.
No to be rude or anything, but you DO realize that the whole point of this is that we don’t know everything, right? It’s a creepypasta, it’s supposed to be creepy and scary. And there’s nothing humans fear more than the unknown. We’re not *supposed* to have all the answers, because THAT is one of the scary parts. We have no clue about this stuff. And that’s what scares us.
@@paragonpoints8420 leaving people with that many questions isn't creepy or scary. It's just kind of annoying and lazy writing. I hate stories that wrap up the ending super clean, but this is a bit ridiculous. If it just ended with Wesley coming home and we were all confused, that'd be fine. But the addition of all that extra shit just takes me out of it
I'm guessing the tree fort is some sort of time machine. The kids future self kiddnapped himself for some reason and left the writing. In the future he will probably send the clothes back?
I think what the story is trying to tell is that Wesley disappeared for the next 6 years and each year on his anniversary of his disappearance the father would get one piece of clothing with one word. What speculated is that something supernatural took Wesley and put him in a pocketed place in time within the forest and home. Where time doesn’t move and nothing changes and where Wesley doesn’t age. The completed phrase “Don’t bother looking for me” was most likely written by Wesley while he was in the pocketed place. The phrase probably means, _don’t look for me because you won’t find me_ Then for reasons unknown the supernatural force or deity decided to finally bring Wesley back. And since the place where Wesley was at nothing changed and time ceased for Wesley everything was fine.
Mandy hall Wesley disappeared for 6 years, and each year on the anniversary of his disappearance a piece of his clothing that he was wearing would suddenly turn up mysteriously and words could only be seen in the light from his bedroom. The phrase “Don’t come looking for me.” were spelt out once all the piece of clothing were brought together, and its most likely Wesley who was probably trapped in some pocketed place (where time doesn’t exist) within his confines of his home and tree fort, was the one who wrote the message, telling his parents that they wouldn’t be able to find him. Then 6 years later, Wesley suddenly appears for reasons unknown. Having no idea how much time has past and had not aged a single day in the slightest despite being gone for years. Then as the father was trying to find answers, a note was scribbled on the tree fort, “Welcome Back” meaning that the supernatural force suddenly decided to let Wesley go back home.
Hey, author! Great job creating a fascinating concept and then totally not taking it anywhere or resolving anything. What were we supposed to get out of this story? Where's the meat? I feel like I listened to this story for no reason. Can I get uhhhhhhh a Part 2??
While this was an intriguing, suspenseful tale, it’s yet again one of these stories that go the lazy route by setting up all these unanswered questions, but never tying it all together. It’s just random mysteries for the sake of it being misleading. The best estimation for an answer that I could gather is that, some supernatural entity warped the kid 6 years into the future and planted the clothes with the messages to mess with the parents as some sick joke. As for the mother crying? I dunno. Motherly premonition I guess?
Where have I heard this story before? I know that it was from another creepypasta channel but I can't remember which one. Either way, I still love MCP's narrations.
I don't think there's another mirror dimension I think something took the boy all those years and preserved him from aging and gaining any new memories that's why in the end I think they are still in the same dimension the dad was in it the writing was just the final piece of the puzzle.
I swear I've heard this story before, maybe on a different channel but it sounds very familiar. 🤔 (Edit) I now remember where I had heard it before, it was from CreepyPastaJR
i think he found a set of stairs and went up them only to find himself in a gas station at the top and he wandered to a small town with a small radio studio, then he found a weird plot of land with a couple of pales.
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.
Cool story but like...did the dad seriously never alert the police when the items of clothing turned up? Like...he never ever thought about how a surveillance team might be beneficial? Or figure that they could use the clothing to try and identify suspects? Honestly even if your story has a cool idea having people act in ways that literally no one would ever act just blows a hole through any immersion.
Could you be talking about "Lost?" Or maybe it's "The Event?" The Event is a really great series. (Got Canceled.) But it's really good. Has a similar story with the plane.
