I dont know how id make this up. This story is 100% real. We were taking a roadtrip from Virginia to New Mexico since we were moving. My dad drove the moving truck, and the rest of us were in a car. It was sunset and felt very magical as we approached the Oklahoma/northern Texas border. Before reaching the border, we saw these weird helix shaped shadows in the sky and they were rotating. No chance of them being a tornado since there werent any thunderstorms. Not a cloud in the sky. No chances of dust devils either since they werent windy. We drove on extremely confused and nearly hit a mountain lion crossing the road. We were completely shook. We ended up crossing the border, and about 2 minutes after crossing i started to get emotional. It wasnt a sadness but more of a feeling like i was returning home. I started crying and began to feel tingly in my head and stomach. It felt as if something was leaving and being replaced in me. We pulled over at a gas station with a view of the plains. I got out and started having visuals of snakes and began thinking about the natives. It felt like their presence was with me. I said out loud "I need to go out there" and almost walked out into the prairie. It was like i was being called out there. I went to the car and one of my family members was having a bloody nose. My dad also couldnt get the gas pumps to work. I got back in the car, and starting having bad anxiety. I felt reborn. We spend the night in Amarillo and i didnt get a single minute of sleep. Ive felt different ever since.

What Is A Liminal Map?

Spooky things happen every day all around us! Instead of brushing these peculiar moments and bizarre encounters off as chance, or mere coincidence, what if we talked about them, mapped them, and tried to decode the message?

Is there a specific place where you've seen fairies, ghosts, bigfoot, time travelers, extraterrestrials, ultraterrestrials, crow conferences, sentient lawn computers, lanyard'd ogres, broccoli wizards, etc.? Does your town have an urban legend you'd love to get to the bottom of?
