I hope you have your water bottle for this one because we’re going on a hike. But not just any old hike, we’re going on a haunted hike! Strap on your hiking boots and let’s hit the trails of one of the most haunted forests in Northern Ireland: The Ballyboley Forest. From there, we’ll travel thirty minutes north to Slieveanorra Forest, home of the mysterious gruagach. Next, dust off your trekking poles because we’re headed to northern Illinois and hitting the Des Plains River Trail and hiking through the haunted, if not cursed, Robinson Woods where hikers report strange smells, the sound of drums, and ghost lights.
