Once upon a night so dreary, 
We ventured forth, quite wild but cheery,
Until the park turned haunted and eerie…

You may have eaten a bad s’more. Are national parks really haunted? It’s a mystery wrapped in a sleeping bag, covered in bug spray, served with a side of boo! Just remember, if you hear a rustle in the bushes, it might be more than just a curious squirrel eyeing your trail mix! It’s two squirrels. Possibly a bear. Where did those bison come from? Is that George Washington? Oh, it’s just a park ranger? Wait, I’m not even in a park. 

Do you have any spooky stories to share from a visit to a park? 👻
