'I felt like I was being watched the whole time.'
askedNote: Some of these stories contain mentions of racism and sexual assault. Also, apologies if your hometown is on this list...but everyone's experience is personal, and, who knows, maybe you agree with what these people experienced?"Denton, North Carolina — Somehow found myself dating someone from here. I’m half Mexican and when she took me to her town it was very weird.
"Colorado Springs, Colorado — I don’t know if it’s still like this, but I grew up in Colorado Springs in the 1980s and it was a completely fundamentalist, evangelical town . David Duke, a famous white supremacist, was still headquartered there, and there were always racist, anti-Semitic, and anti-LGBTQ+ crimes happening that weren’t prosecuted. I grew up mixed race and Jewish in that town. It was utter hell.
"Hines, Oregon — Along the highway there's a really good spot to stop with a public park and bathrooms that's set back a bit from the highway. Kitty corner to the park is an old church that has been empty for a while. The town itself doesn't have a creepy vibe...for humans, but every single dog I have ever driven through there with was absolutely terrified of the place and only took the bare minimum amount of time and space to do their business.
West Plains, Missouri — My good friend bought 40 acres there. Went with him to frame his house. Found out it's a town lost in time. There were no people of color in the whole town. I asked a young guy at the lumber yard about it. He said 'Well the KKK is still pretty big around here.' Weird vibe for sure.""Elizabethtown, Kentucky — My son, 19, and I were traveling from Ohio to central Kentucky on I-75. We stopped in for gas, coffee, and to stretch our legs.
"Redding, California — They tell stories about the aliens who live on Mount Shasta and it brings a lot of interesting characters out. More recently a Christian cult has set up camp and will 'attack' people in stores with gold and feathers to save their souls.""St John’s, Arizona — My ex-husband’s family lives there and every time we visited I told my ex that if he ever tried to move us there I would never. It totally reminded me of the townwas filmed in.
"Rainbow, California — It’s on the business loop of I-15 between San Diego and Riverside. Home to some tree nurseries and a vintage '50s-era truck stop. The diner has a B rating from the health department and a confederate flag on display. Stopped there for lunch once out of curiosity. Found out it’s a mainstay for neo-nazis and bikers."
