In 1977, Camp Scott in Oklahoma was supposed to be a place of joy, laughter, and summer memories for young Girl Scouts. But just one night into the season, it became the scene of an unimaginable horror—three young girls were brutally murdered in their tent. The case remains unsolved, and the camp never reopened. What was meant to be a retreat in nature became a monument of fear and mourning.
Over the years, the land has refused to forget. Visitors report eerie cries echoing through the trees, sudden cold winds on warm days, and the distinct feeling of being watched. Some have seen shadowy figures near the old tent platforms, while others hear the sound of girls giggling—until it turns into screams. The forest has grown thicker around the ruins, but the darkness remains close, pulsing beneath the surface.
In this episode, Steven walks the blood-soaked path of Camp Scott’s history, examining the evidence, the theories, and the chilling paranormal claims. Was this the work of a lone killer… or did something more sinister awaken in those woods that night? Join us, and don't forget to listen closely—you never know who might be whispering just behind you.
