Visit From The Devil - A Living Nightmare

David Slone
Hi My Name is Dawn and I have a very scary story that still haunts me to this day. It was long ago, when I was about 12 or 13, and we lived in Walsenburg, Colorado. We lived in the almost desert like area on about 45 acres and lived in a doublewide trailer in the middle of nowhere.

My brother and I had just got home from school and we had to feed the horse and hogs. After doing so my brother went out to explore and I stayed in the house for not feeling well. I went in my room to lay down for a bit and when I woke up it was dark out. We didn't have much of an outside light, for our house at the time ran off a gas generator. I remember getting up and walking to the kitchen where my german shepard was laying in the floor sound asleep, my mom was in the kitchen cooking and my brother was in his bedroom with the radio on.

Just as I was walking into the living room from the kitchen my dog was woken up for reasons unknown. He went to the front door, bowed his head and started to growl violently. It was the first time I was ever scared of my dog. He went from the front door to the kitchen window, which was over the kitchen sink, placed his paws on the counter and you could see the hair on his neck stand up.

My mom and I looked at each other speechless out side of, "what the hell is wrong with him"? At that point I really thought he was gonna jump threw the window, but he didn't, he went to the front door. My mom made the mistake of opening the front door and he bolted out the door. All of the sudden we heard something that very much sounded like a dog fight. My mom turned on the porch light and sure enough he was fighting with something that looked like a dog.

Mom yelled for Trouper to come inside and as he turned to come in the house this animal blocked his way. She got really scared and went for the 12 gauge shot gun we had at that time. Trouper came inside and when she turned around there stood this dog, coming straight for the door. She shot at the dog hitting him in the side, he hit the ground.

My mom turned and looked at me and at that time the dog got up off the ground and he looked at me. As me and the dog locked eye contact my mom grabbed the shot gun again hitting the dog in the stomach as he lunged for me. I was so scared I count move. We figured two blows with a 12 gauge would put the animal in the grave, but it didn't. Once again the animal got up and he got another blow to the stomach. As the dog laid there my mom says it looked like the animal was pushing its guts back into his stomach and got up and ran off.

The next day we went out to find three big puddles of blood in our yard. We searched for hours and hours to find the body of this animal but never did. As we went back to the house my mom said what ever that animal wanted it was with you, why ? I told her I don't know. Then the most scariest words she said was "do you feel like you just got a visit from the devil ?"
