## Resource

This week, we're breaking from our usual deep dives for one of our favorite recurring bits: a big pile of user-submitted horror stories about why, exactly, camping is canceled. Genevieve just got back from a week backpacking in Wyoming and lived to tell about it, so naturally the timing felt right to remind everyone why sleeping outside is a terrible idea. We dig through some of Reddit's darkest camping and hiking threads for tales of vanishing children, humanoid figures crawling around tents during thunderstorms, ghost Marines pointing lost soldiers back to safety, and a Wicker Man sighting that's almost too on the nose. We also get into the story that broke both of us: a man who, decades apart, may have found the exact same refrigerator with a body inside it, twice. It's unsettling, it's funny, and by the end you'll understand exactly why we stay home. "That's Genevieve. And that's Kaitlyn." Sisters-in-law, best friends, former CNAs, and the sharp-witted duo behind Camping Is Canceled. Known for their mix of research-driven storytelling and unfiltered commentary, Gen and Kait tackle true crime cases (and paranormal rabbit holes) with empathy, curiosity, and a healthy dose of dark humor. 📲 Instagram: @campingiscanceled 📲 TikTok: @campingiscanceled 📧 Contact: campingiscanceled@gmail.com 🎧 Listen now — everywhere you get your podcasts.
