America's long-distance trails hold more than scenic views; they hold secrets. Backpackers share encounters with the unexplained: strange lights that follow you for miles, whispers just outside the firelight, and a recurring warning from locals about the ‘night walkers’—creatures that mimic human form but don't move like humans.
