Communing with nature sounds nice, sure, but wilderness can hide darkness in it’s miles of untamed trails. No matter how experienced a hiker you are, bad things have a tendency to be lurking out in the woods. Spanning over 2,000 miles from Georgia to Maine, the Appalachian Trail is the longest foot-path in the world, but or some, it’s long walk straight into the hands of a killer.
