Whittier, Alaska, is an all-around creepy place. And the creepfest starts before you even arrive. There’s a long, narrow tunnel through the mountain just to get there, and the experience of driving through it is just plain unsettling. So you arrive in Whittier a little bit spooked from driving through that much darkness. The tunnel then spits you out right on the waterfront where there’s almost always a thick blanket of fog blocking the view. You’ve arrived, and now it’s time to camp at Whittier Parking & Camping for a paranormal weekend you’ll never forget. You can explore the reportedly haunted town and see for yourself if any of it is true. Without further ado, here’s more information on what just very well may be the most haunted place for camping in Alaska:
