Okie Pinokie

They closed the road leading back but there’s still a place to park. My friends and me went camping here a couple of months ago and around 3am we heard screaming. It sounded like a woman’s voice. We dragged our tent through the woods and were running full speed and we were still hearing screaming from right behind us. No other cars were parked here. Another time we pulled up on ghost investigators and walked back to devils circle with them. We heard a voice by the river and nobody was there. We went deep on a trail and were lost. We started hearing weird animal noises from all around us. We all thought they sounded more human than animal and were spooked by it and left. I’m aware of what foxes and coyotes sound like. I’m not sure how to describe the noises we heard but it gave all of us goosebumps

Went here a few times actually always around 1 am, my friends and I didn't expect anything of that place. We are all skeptical of the paranormal and after that place we aren't and I am former law enforcement and had faced bigger and scarier things than people could ever imagine but after going there and getting the photos I did. I'll never doubt that place again. we caught a photo of something peeking around a tree at us eyes and all. That was just the first night, the second night we went back and we were immediately warned by a DNR officer to be careful in the woods after oh so many calls about people trying to assault others within the woods. we never saw anyone else that night but just very off putting things had started happening like the flashlight batteries dying and then our phones dying even scratches started forming on a friend (I have the photos) after that night we had went to a church not too far away and i swear you could hear something whispering in disgust as soon as we touched the building.

I’ve been back there with a group of friends, 5 of us total. We got separated while wandering the woods but regrouped quickly afterwards in the open gravel area. I don’t know what the people with me saw but they couldn’t get out of there fast enough and were pretty quiet the whole way back to Logansport. I personally felt like someone was watching me and walking behind me on one of the trails but saw no one when I’d turn around. On our way down the lane when we were leaving in the car, I had the sudden urge to look behind us. As soon as I did I saw a partial full body apparition step from the edge of the lane and into the woods. I told my friend to stop, jumped out and ran back to where I saw them standing but obviously saw no one. No branches or weeds were moving and there was no physical signs of a living person having just been standing there. Also, I say “partial FBA” because I could only see the one side of their body as you would if someone was standing partially hidden behind a wall, shrubs or something similar. I’ve dealt with paranormal experiences since I was a child and that was my 3rd time seeing an apparition. Unfortunately the lane was gated off in 2022 for reasons like the body of Drake Smith being found, vandalism and other illegal activity. However, you can park on the side of the road and walk back the almost 1 mile long lane.

I grew up in Miami Co. and there wasn't any murder of Joe Peoria in 1976.
The road is part of the old Francis Slocum trail going from Peru to Marion. It's a beaitofi; drive in the fall. Colo Porter's grandfather's estate, the Old Fashion Gardene, the Seven Pillars to name a few. No Ghost stories when I was growing up there.

I drove out to Peru and Noone knew what I was talking about with okie pinokie or could give directions. I call crap on the whole thing unless someone can send exact coordinates

I wish I could post a picture here, because I feel like people would shit their pants if they could see the picture I have from this place. A small group of three, including myself went on Halloween night in 2017 or 2018 and nothing much happened. The biggest thing was something running at us in the clearing off the gravel road. But the interesting things happened when we got home. My friend had three scratches on her back and capture a picture with what seemed to be a demons face. It had bulls horns and a nose ring like a bull. There's also a few other figures in it but they are not as easy to see as the demon. I don't know if I'd ever go back. But if I do it's definitely during the day

I went to Okie Panoki in 2020 with my cousin who had been there several times, and has some great footage of orbs and a video of what looks like the face of a young girl floating through the windshield of his car. We thought it would be a nice way to get out of the house without contacting society. We waited in various spots that he said he had seen and heard activity in the past, but after 4 hours we had seen nothing. The last place we staked out was very odd. After sitting there for about 15 minutes we heard a noise in the woods behind us. We thought it was just a screech owl, but there were several loud thuds as it got closer to us. We decided to duck down beside a fallen tree, and suddenly the scream was right behind us, and I felt a strong pain in my stomach, and I heard my cousin groan as if he was in pain as well. Instantly I had liquid diarrhea that I could not contain. I yelled lets go and started running down the path back to the car, with my cousin right behind me. When we got back to the car I was wondering if I could hide the fact that I shit my pants, but before I could try to hide it, my cousin asked if I had any extra shorts in the trunk. He had shit himself too, and said he felt the same sharp pain I had right before. We have both been in situations with the supernatural that were much more terrifying and been fine, and we had both eaten supper on our own before meeting up, so it was not something we ate. I have no idea why we both got liquid shits at the same time, but it felt like something was tearing into my back and poking into my gut right before it happened. We were just talking about going back next spring, and I found this site on Google. I really want to go back, but I wanted to see if anyone else has had the shits issue there.
