| | | Posted by silenceofthebandos I've found a few knives and animal sacrifices freak me out when I find them. I've come across some sort of ceremony in an abandoned cemetery in the woods (luckily wasn't seen) and had a gun pointed at me while exploring once. Stay safe out there guys!
| I’ve been confronted at gunpoint three times while exploring and every single one of them were property owners. All three of them let me leave without incident after I explained why I was there. The most recent one even granted me permission to carry on with my exploring. He also told me a story about the last intruder he caught on his land (he owned land which had an old school gymnasium on it with old cars inside, which is why I was there). He said that a guy pulled a van up to the side of the building in the middle of the night and just started loading it up with anything of value. He went on to explain that out there in the Oklahoma panhandle, the closest sheriff’s deputy was over an hour away, so he held that guy at gun point for over an hour until the police arrived. Rural folks do things a lot differently than urban folks and this man’s story reminded me of this fact. It’s not that these people do things better or worse, just different. We adapt to our environment and when you live hours away from the closest hospital, police department or Dollar General, you know that if you don’t take care of something, there may not be help on the way. Keep in mind that if you explore almost anywhere in rural America, it’s safe to assume the person you’re talking to is armed, even if it isn’t immediately obvious.

- Occupants It happens. If you spend enough time snooping around abandoned houses you'll eventually commit an accidental B&E. Hopefully you hear somebody before they see you, has happened to me twice in 6 years.
| I have a story that relates somewhat along these lines. Me and an exploring buddy went to check out a pre ww1 school out in a small country town. It was clearly abandoned when we got to the place, many broken windows with vines growing from the inside through the windows, and peeking on tiptoe through some of the windows revealed old empty classrooms that looked unused for years. There were some signs of activity around the school, one part of the school had some curtains covering the windows, grass was freshly cut, multiple tire tracks around the place, and on one of the back steps there were some random tools, buckets and VERY fresh cigarette butts. We figured that all this pointed towards the early stages of renovation work being done. There was one thing my friend pointed out as being strange was on one of the inside window sills were some shampoo bottles and other toiletries that didn't look old and dusty, but we really didn't put much thought into what that could mean, other than being strange. We tried some doors which all were locked, and we couldn't find a window with enough broken glass to squeeze up through. We did find an area where we could crawl underneath the building through the crawlspace, which we did. There were plenty of small holes but none big enough to crawl up through, we finally found one big enough for him to fit through. I had to go a bit further to find one I could fit through. I go to meet up with my friend, checking rooms for anything cool to shoot in passing, but they're all empty and dusty. When we group up I can tell something is amiss by the look on his face. Some of the rooms he passed by had clear signs of habitation, and not like a homeless squat. The one that put us on edge the most was a room with a bunch of high end video cameras set up on tripods and other photography and video equipment, green screens, flash umbrellas etc., everything was very clean and new. A little ways down the hall we found another very clean room that was furnished as a bedroom, there was a bookshelf, a flatscreen tv on some drawers, a nightstand with a couple redbox dvds that were due to be returned in a few days, some cases of 9mm ammo and other random personnel items, and then a partially made bed with a glock on it. We decided it was best to fuck off at that point.
