We have been on this website loads of times and finally we decided to sign up. This is our first story but not our first experience so we are sorry if the wording is really bad we can't remember dates when this happened all we know that it was a weird experience. Enjoy!
It was a hot summer day me and friend were making a den in the woods near our house. I was clearing the area that we were going to make the den while she went to get some sticks from another part of the woods. I slowly trailed behind her. I stopped for a while and she carried on deeper into the woods. She was just out of sight when I heard footsteps (nobody was in the woods at that time) walking her way, slowly the pace of the footsteps got faster and seemed like someone was running towards her. I called her name and I saw her poke her head round in the distance she walked back towards me. She was a couple of metres away from me when she froze. I walked over to her to see if she was ok she told me that she felt a freezing cold breeze and something brush lightly over her hand. I explained that moments before I had heard footsteps running in her direction. We left the woods straight away.
We are still to this day afraid to go back into the woods.

What you described could be almost anything, both paranormal or just a normal occurrence. I have spent a good portion of my life in the woods, and sounds travel very strangely. I have heard animals approaching in the woods and had them arrive from a different direction than expected because of distortion and muffling of noise from the terrain and ground cover. Possible, but unlikely with regards to the increasing cadence you described.
I could be wrong but I get a sense it could have been an animal spirit, either being curious or territiorial.
