The Story[]
Mark and his friend Sam loved spending their nights in the woods and camping. Since their financial situation was not good, they did not have much to do, so it became a habit for them to explore nature. But in this incident in 1999, the friends Mark and Sam did not end well during the nature walk.
As usual , Sam calls Mark and they get ready and go camping. After long hikes on the mountain, Mark and Sam find a suitable area and set up their existing campsite there. After the campsite is set up, Mark and Sam start exploring.
Lots of Trees around, Tall lush grass, And a huge waterfall overlooking the tents door. It was the first time Mark and Sam were here and they were fascinated. Although it was a little difficult to walk through the huge bushes and grasses around, it was really good for people.
The first day was spent just gathering wood, feeding and exploring the surroundings. But the only thing that bothered them from the first day was the huge Holes in the Mountains, who and what did not know. Also in these holes were carcasses of animals, half eaten and thrown away. Even though Sam and Mark didn't mind it much, he understood that it was a strange event. The reason they didn't wear it was because these carcasses had been here for a long time, and they thought that whatever had caused it could no longer be around.
It was night, and in the tent, Mark and Sam decided to sleep after discussing the place where they set up the tent.
In the morning, they prepared breakfast with the food they brought with them and continued to explore the surroundings. Even if animal carcasses were around, they were not bothered by it and instead of thinking about animal carcasses, they wanted to go to farther places.
After a 2-hour walk, these two friends had come to a terrifying place. It was barely visible through the dark clouds and mist. Instead of the greenery of the forest where they had pitched their tents, they had come to a completely discolored forest. Huge trees. Hill roads. These two friends were scared, but they got over their fears and started to explore this place. These two friends, who thought that it didn't look very dangerous, were horrified when they saw an eaten animal carcass for exactly 2 days.
The two friends understood that it was two days old. The corpse smell was faint. There were no flies or other living things around. but instead of escaping from here, the two friends started investigating the carcass because there was a strange incident.
This carcass belonged to a fox. his head was untouched, but most of his abdomen had been eaten. Also, the bite marks on the eaten area were very similar to a human. it wasn't a bear or a wolf. The two friends were terrified because they did not understand what had caused these animal carcasses.
The two friends wanted to return, but due to the dark atmosphere, they could not find their campsite. 1 hour and 2 hours passed. they were still looking for the exit in this scary forest.
And they understood. They were lost and were going to spend the night here. Yes. In a place where the fox corpse was eaten and they do not know by which entity it was eaten.
Overcoming their fears again, the two friends tried to climb a tree to restore the signal on the phone. There was no signal though. but they started looking for a signal tower, hoping they might find a signal tower around. After a long walk, they looked at the phone and it was 5:23 am.
They were sleepy, and their eyes were barely opening until they saw a black entity jumping from tree to tree in extreme speed.
They didn't know they saw this thing because of insomnia, but they were terrified. In fact, this fear could keep them up for another 2 or 3 hours.
Mark and Sam increased their speed. But they felt as if there was a creature around to hunt them.
An hour later, they fell asleep again because there was no threat.
But this time;
"WAKE UP KIDS! IT'S MORNING!!"
Mark suddenly regained his sleep and asked Sam, "Did you do that?" said. Sam, on the other hand, answered "no" with a terrible face and swallowing. And when the two friends looked in front of them, they encountered a short, unidentified being without a 1 leg. The two people were glad to be human, but after a while Sam, remembering the human bites on the fox, understood. Sam said to that entity, "What do you want?" but the strange entity started running towards them at an incredible speed without saying anything. While Mark and Sam were puzzled about what to do, Sam started throwing stones at the entity next to him, and the entity slowed down with a strange sound.
Mark, like Sam, continued to throw stones at the entity. But after a while, the entity continued to run at an incredible speed and grabbed Mark. No matter how much Mark tried to say help, he had already lost his throat area to that entity. He could not speak, he could not move. It was still unknown how such a short creature could be so strong and fast even though it didn't even know.
And the Presence began to eat Mark's stomach before Sam knew what to do.
And Sam chose to Run. Now that he ate Mark, he could buy time and get out of here. Sam started running at full speed. Even his feet could not stand the speed and began to lean.
As Sam fled, he realized he saw an old signal tower in the distance. On the one hand, he wanted to go back and save Mark, but he had to get the signal from the tower and escape from here. He made the necessary adjustments to the tower according to his own knowledge. The tower was active, Sam noticing that the signal was coming in slowly, he called the Police, gave the coordinates and waited for the police to arrive. Sam, who made a weapon from the materials around him, understood how much he could not defeat him with these weapons, but waited in despair and thought of Mark and could save him. But she thought for herself and escaped using Mark's death.
The helicopter had arrived. Sam was still alive and happily boarded the helicopter.
And they started asking Sam questions. Sam said it was a human-like creature with legs, long arms, and short stature. The teams that did extensive research on this subject could not even find any information. This appeared for the first time.
The teams sent a helicopter full of armored and armed soldiers to that area. While investigating that area, soldiers were said to have heard strange screams around, but not the slightest trace of Mark's body was found.
No matter how much evidence or clues were sought, nothing was found and it became an urban legend. Deceived by Sam's qualities and appearance, people named him ReptileMan.
