The events are centered around the woods that surround my friend Matt's house, which is in Rocks State Park in Harford County, Maryland.

Harford County, at least the northern part, is still fairly rural and Rocks is pretty heavily forested. The area use to be the home to a few Indian tribes as well and some of the rock formations in the park may or may not have been holy ground, but that's more or less irrelevant because this story doesn't involve Indians, it's just exposition, Harford County is a weird area. It's also been the home of the Booth family. John Wilkes and his less famous brother (more famous at the time though, he was an actor) Edwin grew up there. But I digress, onto Matt's woods.

The woods at Matt's house have always been a little strange. None of my friends has ever felt comfortable in them really. When we were younger they used to camp out in the woods at night, and apparently they all felt strange in different ways but passed it off as over-active imagination or something. Anyway this continued from grade school up until high school graduation in 1996 that is where I enter the story. After graduation we had a party in the woods down at the old campsite.

我朋友馬特住在馬里蘭哈佛特郡的巖石州立公園附近，故事就發(fā)生在環(huán)繞他家的那片森林。

哈佛特郡，至少它的北部地區(qū)還很原始，巖石公園植被茂盛。該地區(qū)以前是一些印第安部落的居住地，公園里的一些巨石以前沒準(zhǔn)還是他們的圣地呢。但這無關(guān)緊要，因為這個故事不會涉及到印第安人，我只是做個說明而已。哈佛特郡是個神秘的地方，它還是布斯家族的所在地。約翰.威爾克斯和他不怎么出名的弟弟埃德文(當(dāng)年他很出名，因為他曾是個演員)就是在那長大。我離題了，我們還是說說馬特的森林吧。

馬特家周圍的森林一直就有點(diǎn)奇怪。朋友們進(jìn)入森林總會感到不舒服。我們小時候，他們經(jīng)常在里邊露營過夜，大家總會有這樣那樣不舒服的感覺，但都把那當(dāng)成是過于活躍的想象而拋諸腦后，沒太在意。直到1996年我們中學(xué)畢業(yè)，也就是故事開始的時候。畢業(yè)后我們在森林里露營辦了個聚會。
