Horror lovers, lifelong best friends, and co-hosts of the Horror Rewind podcast, Kelly Florence and Meg Hafdahl, have traveled around the U.S. to bring you the most thrill-inducing spots for horror, history, and true crime. They've compiled a list of what to do, where to stay, where to eat and drink, and where to shop to make your vacation-planning a breeze.
They've also delved into the history and pop culture of each spot, revealing hidden gems, most notorious true crimes, women you should know, horror books and movies set in the state, and other strange facts about some of the scariest places around the nation.
Here's a small sampling of what you can expect to find in Travels of Terror:
St. Augustine, Florida: Take an open air trolley on the Ghosts & Gravestones Tour to the Old St Augustine Cemetery, Potter's Wax Museum, Old Jail Museum, and a bevy of churches with their own macabre past.
Los Angeles, California: Stay at the haunted Hotel Roosevelt, where you may be visited by the ghosts of actors Errol Flynn and Montgomery Clift.
Portland, Oregon: Grab a cocktail at Raven's Manor, a horror-themed bar with drinks like the Black Widow, Lilith, and Draught of Asphyxiation.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: Learn about the most famous true crime to happen there, when the wife of the Allegheny County Jail warden fell in love with a convicted murderer.
New York, New York: Celebrate Nia DaCosta, the first Black female director to have a film debut at the top of the box office, with the supernatural horror-slasher film Candyman in 2021.
Austin, Texas: Pick up souvenirs for friends and family at The Glass Coffin, a vampire parlor and horror shop.
Duluth, Minnesota: Visit Glensheen Mansion on the shores of Lake Superior, where Duluth's most notorious murders occurred in 1977.
From big cities to small towns, get inspired to plan your own ghoulish getaway.
