WHITTIER/HACIENDA HEIGHTS, CA – Located near LA between Whittier and City of Industry, Turnbull is a 49,000-acre smorgasbord of nightmare fuel set amid the scenic hills. Do you want your scares rooted in American history? The natives called it “Hutukngna,” or the place of the Devil, where the ghosts of those slain for not converting to Christianity dwell alongside witches and Satanists, who reportedly used the place to sacrifice children, whose spirits now walk the canyon and dangle from trees. They’re joined by the ghosts of 21 kids who perished in a plane crash back in ’52… allegedly, as there’s no existing record of it. Then there are the remains of the old insane asylum that came back to life to kill a teen in the ‘60s via a long-dormant electrical wire. There are cults, alien encounters, gravity hills… It goes on and on. Basically, if it’s something that gets under your skin, there’s a story about it happening in this seemingly cursed canyon.

Where it came from: The place’s evil vibes date back centuries, though it wasn’t until the site was established as a fur-trapping site in 1845 that things started getting really intense, with word of the site’s terrors traveling far and wide and making it a place visited as much for its beauty as morbid curiosity.
