Not exactly sure where to post this,but this place seems kind of apropos for ''something strange''.Anyway way back when I was 8 or 9 or something,I was playing outside. Now this was in Russia so it was a big open yard with several multistory houses facing in.Our window was obscured by a tree,so when my mum wanted to call me home she'd just yell. Keep in mind I was about 60 or so meters from the house.I was playing on a swing when a roaming pack of dogs (which are quite common there) were making their way towards me.I knew I'd never be able to outrun them (roaming dogs are basically wolves of the city,as they have been known to attack/eat people).I had hoped they might walk around and not approach me,but no such luck.I felt my heartbeat quicken as they made a slow beeline for me (these dogs were almost as big as me at the time) and I stopped swinging and started fearing for my life.But once they got within 2-3 meters of me,they just stopped and started staring.As I was still very religious at the time,I started praying.Then something odd happened.The dogs sat around me in a circle and started howling.Not barking,but actually howling,like wolves.I didn't even know dogs could howl.Then I heard my mum calling me home and my heart sank.I couldn't leave the circle (I was still sitting on the swing,sweating with fear) and I didn't really feel like yelling,seeing as it could be seen as provocation by them.But my mother was determined to get a response,yelling for me again and again and I knew that either she'd come out looking for me and something bad might happen or I might get in trouble upon my return home.I decided to roll the dice and yell that I wanna stay out.The dogs didn't react,it was like they didn't even hear it.They just sat in a circle,facing the same way as me.Then as abruptly as they arrived,they got up and waddled off.I was left dumbfounded and have for many years remembered that moment wishing to understand what in the blue hell happened.Any ideas guys?
