Little did we know when we moved here, but this bit of land has a haunted history that we would love to share with you. This area is the home of the legend of the Pickens County Horror, made famous in a graphic novel penned by Mike Mignola, the creator of Hellboy. The original builder of our home was killed in our basement by his son. He was blown up and set on fire by a sabotaged gas stove and then left to burn to death in the backyard. There are strange noises and creatures that can be heard and sometimes seen at night. Neighbors are sometimes menaced by…something, which is why you’ll sometimes hear gunshots in the wee hours of the night. The Liberty Boom is often heard at random times during day and night. --- Have a stay in your tent or a hammock under our barn patio. We have a gravity shower and a camp toilet onsite. There's also a picnic table for your use. Guests have their own parking spaces. There are trails to use right at the end of the driveway, and we can even be talked into taking you out on a haunted night hike if you’re up to it. Don’t be alarmed if you see the neighborhood donkey and horses in the front yard. Situated very close to Clemson University, upstate lakes, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and Sassafras Mountain, SC’s highpoint. Guests will also receive PDF versions of: *SC’s Scariest Places with locations of other nearby haunted spots written by me *The Pickens County Horror by Mike Mignola with added maps to locations found in the graphic novel *Guests can also join the waitlist for a free copy of Hillbilly Lovecraft by me when it is releasedThere is parking available beside the barns at the top of the hill, and a short hop down a slope to the site itself. It's well lit for nightime use and to keep the unwelcome creatures away. Toilet and shower at at the campsite. Water is available at the main house. There is an electrical hookup at the site for anything you need to charge. Our Wifi doesn't reach the site, but the cell signal is strong. We're more than happy to give you a short tour and describe the lay of the land when you arrive. This is a working farm, so there will be activity around the farm and the barns during the day. We're also a Certified Wildlife Habitat and proud member of the Farmer Veteran Coalition. Various animals we've spotted on the farm include: black bears, skunks, coyotes, raccoons, opossum, hawks, crows, deer, turkeys, all kinds of snakes, scorpions, and a gazillion squirrels. A grocery store, gas station, and plenty of eateries are only a few miles away. Only a short drive to amazing hikes in several state parks and hundreds of miles of trails. Cars, regular trucks, and vans are welcome. Sorry, but there's not enough room for RVs. BYOS- Bring your own stove or grill for cooking.
