Nate Hosie, host of HeadHunters TV on the Outdoor Channel, says he knows he’s in limited company when it comes to his fear of squirrels, but he says his fear only extends to those that claim the tree he’s sitting in as their “own personal dojo.” I could never nail down exactly where the sound was coming from, but it sounded close. “ Nate Hosie – Sneaky, Aggressive Squirrels I still get goose bumps when thinking about or telling the story to someone and remembering that shriek. “All I know for sure is that no way could he ever convince me to go back to that stand. “When he came to pick me up, Dad laughed and suggested that the sound was possibly a rabbit being killed by a predator,” Jordan said.

With the spooky holiday just around the corner, we thought it’d be amusing to ask some of our pro staffers what makes them quiver in their boots when it comes time to head outdoors. But it’s the real creatures of the night-spiders, bats and other creepy crawlies-that send shivers down the spines of some outdoorsmen and women. These imaginary beings are what make Halloween so fun.
