I have a similar story to Cloud's, except it was from this summer. My friends and I were running around in the fog on the beach- you all know how it gets so foggy that you can't see much farther than a meter away. Anyway, we were having a grand old time (the wonder is, we were doing it while completely sober) running around and chasing each other. Someone was fooling around with a lighter, and then we saw a light off in the distance. It kept coming closer, and the guys decided to go "check it out." These were 17 and 18 year-olds, mind you, and they were basically playing "spy." They snuck around the bluffs and then returned to "report" that a middle aged man in a trenchcoat was following us by the lighter and from our voices. This one girl was freaking out, afraid that he might be a "serial rapist." We were on our way back, walking by Hamilton Hall, when someone spotted him following us again. Then one of our guys ran after him and chased him away.
At the time, the event was quite crazy, but after hearing about what is going on in town at the moment, I'm glad that I wasn't alone that night.
