Thump! Thump! Drag! (Urban Legend)

The girl scouts of Troop 66 were happy to finally see the rain gone. Almost all summer the rain ruined every opportunity for Troop 66 to camp out and tell ghost stories around the campfire.

Finally, there was no rain in the forecast all weekend. Troop 66 wasn't about to let this beautiful weekend slip by especially being that it was the last weekend of summer.

Troop 66 consisted of girl scouts Sarah, Jen, Brenda, and Karen.

The girl scouts of Troop 66 headed out down old willow road in Jen's car dressed in their girl scouts uniforms anticipating their weekend campout. As they drove slowly through the mountain they all kept a lookout for the perfect spot to pitch a tent.

Karen said "Look! Over there! That looks like the perfect spot to pitch a tent and build a campfire.” The other girls chimed in and said "That's perfect."

Jen pulled off the side of the road and parked the car. The sun was just setting and wouldn't be completely dark until about an hour. Just enough time to pitch their tent and gather wood for the campfire. Everyone got out of the car and got everything they needed for the weekend campout and headed to the campsite.

Jen said, "I'm so glad this day has finally come because I would be so depressed if our campout got rained out and have to wait for next summer to arrive and hope that summer campout wouldn’t be ruined."

"Before we begin let us all join hands and say a little prayer before we set up camp," replied Karen.

After Karen said the prayer they all set up the tent and gathered firewood for the campfire.

As they all sat around the campfire roasting marsh mellows and telling ghost stories the wind started to pick up and Karen said "I think I'll turn in for the night."

Jen chimed in and said "I think I'll turn in as well. What about you Brenda?"

Brenda answered, "I think I'll get some more firewood and stay up a while longer."

Jen and Karen said "Goodnight Brenda."

About thirty minutes later Karen said to Jen "Did you hear that?"

Jen replied "I hear a noise that sounds like Thump! Thump! Drag!"

"Maybe our minds are playing tricks on us because we were telling ghost stories around the campfire," said Karen.

"I heard it again," exclaimed Jen.

"Why don't you check it out?" asked Jen.

"Why don't you check it out for yourself, I'm not going out there, besides if it was anything, don't you think Brenda would come running inside the tent in fear telling us all about it," said Karen.

"Let's go to sleep before we really scare ourselves," replied Jen.
