Huntingdon College Demon
2018

My roommate went to this school and told me this story. A friend of his went on a walk with another friend and passed a children's playground. They saw a dark figure about seven feet tall with red eyes, its limbs too long to be human, sitting criss-cross on top of a slide. As they approached, the figure looked up and began to chase them on all fours. The two ran back to their dorms at the college. A few weeks later, one of the guys who initially saw the figure (we'll call him Dan) went to a meeting in the upstairs portion of an old dorm building. This building has long been thought to have been haunted and is no longer used as living space — it's just storage and meeting rooms. He went to a meeting room upstairs for a club meeting before another friend arrived confused. She said she had seen him downstairs just then in different clothes before he left the building. Dan assured her that he had been in the meeting room for about ten minutes, so that couldn't have been him outside. She described the clothes she saw him in downstairs — and it was the same outfit Dan initially encountered the dark figure in. A bit after that, a fraternity sent their recruits to the basement of the building for some light hazing, since they thought the building was haunted by no more than your average ghost. It went horribly awry. The shadow-demon from before had taken up residence in the basement. It threw things around before attacking one of the boys. They ran out of the basement — one of them even Facetimed his priest. Another recruit had deep gashes in his arm that looked to be from claws. There have been other sightings of this entity, known as Jimmy, since then in various places around campus after dark. (He's Jimmy because he's slim like a Slim Jim.)
