Hello,
My name is James Patrick,
I live in Edmonton, Alberta. I recently experienced something I wanted to share to see if anyone else has experienced the same. A couple months ago I was walking down the train tracks in Old Strathcona, by 109th st. I came across the infamous train tunnel that most people in the area know quite well. If you are unaware, it is a rarely used train tunnel that is a breeding ground for the young and the homeless. As I approached the tunnel I thought it might be fun to walk through, it was about dusk and the sun was setting at a slow, steady pace. A few minutes of walking through the tunnel I saw what appeared to be a young woman walking ahead of me. As I neared the end of the tunnel I could see her better. She wasn't wearing any clothes, she had long brown hair which appeared to be dirty and knotted, and she seemed to have some sort of deformity to her hands. Her left hand had no fingers and not much of a thumb. On her right hand, her thumb seemed to be on the wrong side of her hand. I called out to her to see if she needed help, she turned around still barely visible due to her silhouetted figure, I saw a dim shimmer in her eyes. She stood and stared at me without answering. I asked if she needed help and again got no response. I went into my back pack to grab my cell phone so I could call for help. I noticed the clock on the phone was wrong, but brushed the thought aside as I felt a sudden chill. I started walking forward and looked up to an empty tunnel. It was no longer dusk at all, the sunlight had escaped me. I looked at my watch and noticed my phone wasn't wrong at all. It was 4 am and I had lost the majority of my night.
I still feel uncomfortable since the event and I was wondering if anyone had seen this girl or managed to help her? I don't exactly know what happened but I haven't heard anything about her since.
