The Forest Awaken | Creepypasta Narration 

Protag: So, what's wrong with the woods? Old Man: *Proceeds to list just about every kind of supernatural shit you can think of*

Being from up here in Massachusetts the stories from up here hit hard because you hear of eerie myths and stuff like this every now and then. This was one of my favorite stories I’ve heard of yours so far. This is gold.

This one was really fun, considering it's turned in to an audiobook movie is just 👌

The sound effects... I was playing Fallout while listening to this and it got me a few times. Amazing job

So I grew up in Taunton, inside the Bridgewater Triangle, and also in Norton for a while, a short hike away from the Hockomock and about a five minute walk from King Phillip's Cave. I'm not the paranormal type and I never saw anything all that weird but having spent several nights in the woods and swamps, I can 100% see where these folktale stories come from. It's very easy to develop a sense of paranoia while you're out there, especially if you're alone. Trees groaning and animals moving through the woods seem a hell of a lot more sinister when you're in the middle of nowhere in the night. Nothing is coming to save you if something does go wrong. There's also a lot of history to Massachusetts, and it's mostly bloody and unpleasant. King Phillip's War was the bloodiest war per capita in the history of America, and there are indigenous burial grounds and holy sites everywhere. The woods and swamps have seen bloodshed, suffering, and cruelty like few other places in the country, and while I might not be the paranormal type, it's easy to imagine sometimes that all that strife might leave... imprints. Also Raynham is prounounced like "Rain-ahm", not "ray-ham".It's not the weirdest pronunciation we have either, the town Worcester is pronounced "wiss-ter", or "wiss-tah" if you want to play up your Boston accent.

The way he says Corgi is scarier than all these stories

If a .38 wounds these things, imagine what a .50 cal would do to it.

You should advertise this more on your main channel This deserves more attention

I listen to these at work or when I'm finishing chores at home. Thank you. 😁

Dude I've binge watched all of your videos while falling asleep and have had woke up to shadows in my room. Good job man lol. Keep up the great work and don't stop

Say what you want, but if old mate local at the local store tells me that there's "evil" in the woods, that's all I need to hear, I'm going home. haha

Mm nothing like falling asleep to this and living out the story in your dreams. Not fun, but amazing story!

Late to the show, but here I am working a weekend in quality control listening to quality content.

I spent yesterday not feeling so hot. Being read to was nice. Thank you, sir, for your service.

I loved this one for some reason. The story and narration was so perfect. By far on of my favorites

I know im late but I just discovered this channel. I basically live in the freetown state forrest and drive through there around copicut reservoir often, theres nothing scary in those woods at night lol. Just drunk teenagers and rusted rams and jeeps blasting through mud puddles. Its not even a big forrest and borders one of the most densely populated cities in the state lol.

Roanoke you’re a great researcher, biologist, and a narrator! Wish you the best on the Michigan dogman, I’d love to join you!

New subscriber, old ICU/ Hospice RN-- what a great story, and Bonus!! it was technically on point! Very cool... Ty and looking forward to more. 🙂

The Moment... You said "Child's Laughter" I noped right out of that for like an hour. Call me what you will. When you hear a kid's laughter and there are no children around and it's DARK, it is time to leave.

love these videos as always roanoke. Is there any chance you'll do a werewolf read at some point?

This is where I'm from! Also lived in the Bridgwater Triangle! This was our playground growing up and the strange bizarre sightings are too many to count...

“Lung butter.” That’s a new one… even to me 😂

Great narration, i really like de editing

This is awesome. Im from South Hadley and have eaten many times at Fish Tales. It's actually in Hatfield on School st next to Whatley. Love this character is from my hometown

I have hiked through Freetown Forest at about 1am. I don't believe the stories and was with my gf of the time and my other friend. My gf at the time was terrified but I knew it was just because we were in the woods at night and she thought there were cults in there. After hiking about 4miles in on the trails she was so freaked out that we were forced to turn back. When we got to the car again she told me she had seen someone in a white hood in the forest. I still to this day don't believe her and never saw someone or felt being watched. I still think it was just the fear of being in the woods at night. The biggest reason I didn't believe her was because she never spoke up and told us she didn't see it until the way back so it wasn't the reason she wanted to turn around. To this day it was just a creepy walk in the woods at 1am but nothing more. I'd like to do it again and go further!

I literally got chills when he said "army ruck march"

That left for dead witch cry tho 😂 so nostalgic

This was basically a new age telling of Ichabod Crane in Sleepy Hollow, the way the author used descriptive language and insinuations. The way the narrative character reassures themselves by natural occurrences dismissively. The way it’s so New England lol.

Aw yeah, time for another amazing story baby!

OMG My hometown is South Hadley!!!! HA! Small world...this is awesome 👏😊👍 💙❤💜

That's a long video, holy moly.

Dude you are my favorite RU-vid channel an today I just found this one an I love it man

A shrill cackling laughter in the woods? Oh my god! The poor man had to face off with Kamala Harris! He's lucky to be alive.

So the dude has a revolver, knows how to use it (despite the idiotic "warning shot" he took which is a bad call in 99.999% of circumstances), has the awareness to check his round count before a looming engagement, knows that he has an spent chamber, has extra ammo, knows how many additional rounds are in his pocket, but then DECIDES NOT TO TOP OFF THE CYLINDER? I'm sorry, that's just bad technique man. There's a reason that basically everyone in the world ditched their revolvers in favor of magazine fed semi-auto pistols. In fact, there are several. Capacity, reload speed, controllability, reliability, and most guns in most cases will indicate that they're empty in some way. But in all, capacity and reload speed substantially favor semi-auto pistols. But hey, at least he had SOME sort of gun...

The writer of this is definitely… going to be really good some day

You can REALLY tell that the person who wrote this knows nothing of the North East. Even in the supremely rural areas, they don't talk like country bumbkins, and there is only one species of rattle snake in the North East, but in all of my time hiking around there I never came across one (to the point of the idea of there being a snake pit being comical to me).

Roanoke i beg you to do the scary park ranger stories!! Ur really good at telling stories!!!

I'm like 6 minutes in and it's really getting to me how the author is just really enthusiastically using words they don't quite know the meaning of.

Oh this will do nicely for my shift tonight.

YOOOO Southwick Zoo is awesome! That place is so fun!

Good, but the language used needs to be tailored to each character. The old locals wouldn’t be saying asphyxiated or topography. Otherwise good tho.

Oh damn, I was just thinking about this channel. Edit: Lung butter has to be one of the most disgusting terms I've ever heard.

Perfect to listen to while i workout

Great work with the narration and sound effects. The main character seems to have experience hiking and has the smarts to bring a gun and extra batteries for his flashlight but not fully charge his phone nor bring a compass or a physical map? He also walks for hours and doesn't turn around until its starting to get dark. I just feel the main character didn't make sense. Good story but they should have made the main character more believable.

This was really f@#$ good

Letts gooo and thanks editor for the tip

Bruh who is the sexy- we I mean second voice? Is that you? I listen to your channels a lot when I’m painting or in a narcoleptic coma- but that uh.. yeah that got my attention lol. Great stuff btw. I gotta make a habit of commenting cause the algorithm gods need to bless you lol

Oh wow the ending of this one I did not see coming great story

Lost me with the religious twist. Paranormal, supernatural, monsters, or just a wendigo roaming the woods yeah I'm in. Imaginary friend in the sky? Nah too far fetched.

What a hard intro to swallow.

I relate to the old man in the woods more than I should

I will now call my Corgi korgii

Excellent!!!!!

*Hears a woman crying* ...Witch...

Shoulda been called "saved by a sandwich"

Let go Brandon .. Best channel for the creepypastas now everybody bonappetit

Guest reader this time?

just got to 13:00 and assuming its the wendigo. Lets goooooooooo

The comparisons used to describe things in this story are so ridiculous 😅

Wow the similes in this one really ruin the tension, "old maid chasing after a bridal bouquet" does not set up a very suspenseful horror story atmosphere

Not gonna lie. I carry a glock and a sub2k that takes the same magazines when I hike or go camping...if not more serious firepower. All cause I listen to these stories! Thanks for keeping my paranoid Roanoke lol

Bro lez go

Was that car Christine?

👍

Hey.roanoke

a

Well read. Really poorly written story, especially the entire convenience store scene. Like just no. My 7 year old can write better than that

As someone who's run the Boston Marathon, it does indeed make you want to pass out. I used to love running, but marathons are the worst.

HAHAHAHA THIS MAN SAID CORGY!
