Nothing crazy but it does remind me when we rolled into Bolinas, CA on our way to hike Alamere Falls. Stopped at the local store the for some food.  There was a real weird vibe we all felt, like it was a town out of a horror movie where you get killed.  It didn't help that it was dark and misty that day either. Then I Google it out of curiosity and wiki has this:

The community is known for its reclusive residents. It is only accessible via unmarked roads; any road sign along State Route 1 that points the way into town has been torn down by local residents

Since folks are sensitive, RACCOON hunting, brother in law and myself with "Patches" One night Patches got a tad rambunctious and we had to split up to slow her down. Well, I found her and was walking back, ended up in a clearing-in the middle of a small graveyard. It was a full moon, I'm 16, no gun and in the middle of nowhere. Guess it may have been my imagination, but the chill, the hair raising on my neck and the feeling of not being alone. Yeah, at the time it was scary and probably would be again today.

Even all of the years hunting, chasing and catching every type of felon, never felt like I did that night.

I visited Dachau when I was stationed in FRG, it wasn't scary from the sense above but from the standpoint of how evil some can be. I didn't have to see it to believe it though.

A family friend who was a Vietnam veteran, USMC, saw extensive combat and became a NY State Trooper told us when he was sent to NYC during the blackout, he thought he wouldn't make it out alive. That says something about that crap hole

The solitary confinement area of the old Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield. Most of the old prison is pretty cool and it's fun to see. However the solitary confinement part is reputedly the most paranormally active area, and it's dank and cold and miserable just walking through it.

There was a river bed in Afghanistan where the bodies would float to In the winter and rainy season and decomposed in the summer. It was nothing but dry bones. Pure white. It was also the only road way so you’re stuck driving over them. That was hellish and surreal.

An illicit trip up the inside of a smokestack of a small, in-commission steam plant.  I think it fired up about 45 minutes after we got out of there.  Those ladder rungs were so rusted.  More than one dislodged under load.

Yes, definitely. I was born in Dachau in 1977. Went to the concentration camp in 2012 and you cannot describe the feeling in the gas chamber.

Byberry State Hospital in Phila.  When I was going to K9 school, the hospital had been closed because of the ACLU.  We were doing night work, running searches in the abandoned buildings before they were demolished.  We had to go through the basement of every building before we started, because some of the former patients had come back and were living there.  Place was creepy even when it was open, had a definite horror movie castle vibe, but abandoned, no power and psych patients roaming around unspervised?

The museum in DC was bad enough for me, can’t image being there. The ride in the elevator that only went up one floor took like two minutes and we were packed in there. Started getting kinda anxious not going to lie.

Two places I won't ever go back... Because... Well, stuff.

The old  Russell County Courthouse, in Seale Alabama.  I don't believe in ghost per say, but I saw someone in a stripped prisoner's jumpsuit, walking down the hall... in a barred up, padlocked building thats been abandoned since 1930 something.


The second is Crybaby Hollow, Decatur.  I'm not saying we heard babies screaming, in the woods, at night... but we heard something, and we got the loving hell out of there.  


...fuck both of those places.

Navajo Nation in northern Arizona after dark on a solo motorcycle trip and Transylvania at sundown and after dark in late 80s Communist Romania I would rank as a tie.

The embassy in Romania could get pretty spooky too late at night alone on watch.

USS Arizona. Visited the memorial as a kid in the 70s. Too young to fully grasp the enormity of the december 7th attack, but I sensed something that was very disturbing like sadness or despair and began to sob uncontrollably.

Sailed past it on a Navy ship in '91. We were "manning the rails" to render honors. I did not feel the same feeling as I did the first time, rather I felt priveleged to be in uniform and honored to be able to pay my respects. The eerie thing was what our ship did. It got quiet. If you have ever been aboard a ship, you know it has a regular, normal, everyday sound, like it is alive in a way. When we sailed past the Arizona, hundreds of sailors and Marines at attention giving a hand salute, the ship got quiet. It was as if the ship was paying respects as well. Eerie as fuck when I realized what happened and the hair stood up on the back of my neck.

This, and the grounds at the much larger Auschwitz II down the road.  That entire place had a heaviness in the air that I’ve never felt anywhere before.

I’m not a very spiritual person but the entire Auschwitz and Auschwitz II complexes were filled with bad juju.

Dachau was bad, but to me Auschwitz was much worse.  There is something about that place that haunts me to this day to think about it.

I was squirrel hunting in a bog off the north fork of the Calcasieu river in Louisiana. I came across two dead crows standing upright with their wings extended and cupped toward each other. They were in a circle of small rocks. I got the creepiest feeling I was being watched. I bid a hasty retreat and never went back.

One summer I was paddling in northern Canada. I was alone. It was windy during the day, so I paddled a lot a night. It wasn't really dark, just a long drawn out twilight.
It must have been 3-4 in the morning, when I was looking to camp. Lot of the ground was muskeg and stunted trees. Finally, I came up to a clearing along the shore.

There was an old, old log cabin set back from the shore. Very small. Sod roof caved in.
Out front of the cabin were two mounds. Over grown, hard even to see.
These mounds were about two feet wide by six feet long.

I paddled on.
