“Rake” Sighting

Near Missile Launch Facilities
2018, 2020

On 2 separate occasions(2018 & again in 2020), and totally "coincidental", the 2018 incident was a cryptoid out by missile launch facilities in the middle of nowhere (where I used to work). It looked almost exactly like some of the pictures you can find on google if you search "The Rake". It might sound very cliché, but I truly didn't know about this "creepypasta" character before hand, so till this day I can't see a picture because of how eerily similar it looks like to it. It was sitting like a dog on the side of the road next to a field of sunflowers, just staring . It was lanky, naked, super pale almost white, no hair at all anywhere. Hollow eye sockets. That's all I could see with the harsh headlights. It sat in the same spot, just blinking through this whole experience. We locked eyes. It watched the vehicle leave before running into the fields. I was the sole witness. The 2020 incident was witnessed by myself and another person. Both these incidents happened at 2am, whether that matters idk. For this second one, it was near the LFs, again. We were in a humvee, heading back to our facility, when out of nowhere a huge red "ball of light" appeared next to our vehicle. It was pulsating, and keeping up perfectly with our accelerating vehicle. It could've been slightly bigger than the humvee. It kept following for a good 30 seconds, until it stopped right before a 4-way intersection(that we absolutely did not stop at) We were the only people out in the area at that time. (Mind you, this is in the middle of NOWHERE-the nearest farmer is probably 30 miles out) I observed it when it stopped before a stop sign behind us, pulsating, and then vanishing into itself- thin air. Not up, down, sideways. into itself. These experiences definitely left me shook for a long time. Obviously these are more detailed and longer, but I've given a rundown of both experiences as simplified as possible!

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?
