There are countless movies about young people venturing out to the middle of nowhere for a \u201cfun trip\u201d only to see it descend into horror (think \u2018The Cabin in the Woods\u2019, \u2018The Evil Dead\u2019 and, of course, \u2018The Blair Witch Project\u2019).<\/p>\n

So imagine how you\u2019d feel if you went on a camping jolly to a remote area with one of your friends only to discover that you may not have been as alone as you\u2019d thought\u2026<\/p>\n

This is what allegedly happened to TikTok user Carter Booth (@carterbooth) who shared a video <\/a>of his mate building a fire as they enjoyed a night under the stars.<\/p>\n

Panning around to capture a glimpse of the scenery, it all seems pretty wholesome and unremarkable, until you take note of the caption to the clip.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy friend and I went camping alone, but we saw this when we watched the footage\u2026,\u201d Booth wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cNever been so disturbed,\u201d he added in a separate comment. And, indeed, if you look closely, you\u2019ll see why he was left so shaken\u2026<\/p>\n

Lurking in the darkness and emerging from behind a rock is what appears to be the figure of a person watching over the two campers.<\/p>\n

(Scroll to the six-second mark and see if you can spot them:)<\/p>\n

The video sent shivers down the spines of more than 4.4 million viewers in just five days, racking up more than 205,800 likes and thousands of comments.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou meant to say \u2018my friend and I went camping alone but we SAW A MAN STANDING AT [THE] TOP OF [A] ROCK when we watched the footage,\u201d one horrified TikToker wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t find it and I\u2019m keeping it that way; y\u2019all stay safe though,\u201d said another.<\/p>\n

A third added simply: \u201cBruh, I\u2019m done. Bye.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eagle-eyed viewers spotted at least one figure amid the darkeness<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a number of commentators remarked that they could see more than just one mysterious figure lurking in the gloom.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s two! But there might be one more in the shadows underneath the top two. If you look closely and slow it down. [I don\u2019t know] maybe I\u2019m tripping,\u201d one wrote.<\/p>\n

And others made light of the situation, with one saying: \u201cIt\u2019s the friend they didn\u2019t invite,\u201d and another joking: \u201cThat\u2019s the bro with the beers.\u201d<\/p>\n

One sceptic suggested the whole thing was staged, writing: \u201cHmmm why would [you] tilt the camera that high and go back down to nothing? I don\u2019t trust this one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even so, we think we\u2019ll stick to a busy campsite next time we decide to get our tents out\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
