When it comes to creepy road trip stories and travel horror stories, this is by far my most terrifying.
When I was growing up my family owned a cabin in Hancock, New York, in the Catskills. It was mainly used for hunting, but we’d also drive up there to hike, ride quads, make campfire s’mores, and just be in nature.
This cabin was small — it was actually a trailer that was afixed into the ground and then added onto slightly. Because of this, my cousin and I would share a big bed in the main part of the trailer and my dad would sleep on the couch, but we were all virtually in the same room.
One night when I was about 10 I woke up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and saw a man standing at the end of the bed staring at me. I knew instantly he was a ghost, as he was translucent and was dressed like he was from the mid-1800s.
Quickly, I threw the cover over my head and squeezed next to my cousin, terrified.
I must have passed out, because the next thing I knew I was on the floor of the trailer, next to the couch. I could hear my dad snoring loudly, but every time I tried to reach out to wake him up something would grab my hand and pull it back.The next morning, I woke up on the floor of the trailer with my hands over my head.
I woke up in an even weirder position the following night, when my cousin and I awoke with the bed covered in vomit. It was from me, but I had no recollection of throwing up — and I’d never thrown up in my sleep before.
But, wait, didn’t you say in the title that there were multiple scary travel stories?
Yes — and that’s where things get even more creepy.
The next two times that I went to the cabin I ended up waking up covered in my own vomit, with barely any recollection of throwing up.
This is something that had never happened to me before, but yet it was happening constantly at the cabin.
Eventually we sold the cabin, though years later I was told that a family member once claimed to see a UFO landing in the yard when he got up to use the toilet at 3am.
Even now, over 20 years after the incident, I still remember it vividly and I firmly believe that that cabin is possessed by something inhuman.
Many people imagine injuries and lost passports when thinking about travel horror stories, but for me, it’s definitely this.
