"I started to hear yelling. At first, I thought it was Amish folks just bringing in livestock for the evening, but then I noticed a pattern, and it evolved into this weird, indescribable chanting/singing."
I received the following account:
"Hi, Lon. I grew up in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, near Ephrata, where many Amish people live. A few years ago, late in the summer, I was taking my mom’s dog for a walk. There was a road behind her development that sloped downhill, with a lot of fields that eventually turned into barns and houses that bent into a wooded area. My mom worked the second shift and I felt bad for the dog being cooped up in the house so I decided to take the pup for a long walk for some exercise.
As I started walking down the hill, a cat came out from behind a house. Then another. Then more. From fields, and houses, until I was being followed down this road by no less than a dozen cats. The dog was still relatively calm, which was weird for her because she usually spent the nights running in circles around my mom’s modular home, jumping over people and couches to make sure she could still run in a perfect circle.
I kept going down this road, which stretched out for probably a mile in front of me before bending into the trees. The sun was beginning to go down, and that’s when I started to hear yelling. At first, I thought it was Amish folks just bringing in livestock for the evening, but then I noticed a pattern, and it evolved into this weird, indescribable chanting/singing. Someone had a drum. I started slowing down, and I heard dogs barking from all over the place. Then a few people opened the front doors to their homes and were just staring at me.
I GTFO of there and ran the whole way up that hill with the dog, cats still following until we got to the main road. Never went that way for a walk again. I know that you are familiar with the Amish since you have stated that your early family was part of that community. Have you heard anything as bizarre as what I experienced? Thanks." P
NOTE: Some folks, who live outside of the sect, claim that there are Amish members who practice a form of magic and occultism. Folk healing among some of the PA Dutch and Old Order Mennonite communities (pow-wow) is still practiced, and there are claims that it involves supernatural and mystic qualities. As far as what this witness experienced, there could be another explanation, since I have experienced it myself. Drumming and chanting phenomena are not an unknown manifestation in the South-Central region of Pennsylvania. I attribute much of it to the lingering sentinel energy of the past residents, in particular to the Susquehannock and other previous native tribes who habituated the area. I have mentioned my experiences in some of my writings. Lon
