Whether people fly to a small town in Europe or drive domestically to explore the great outdoors, spooky encounters can happen when you least expect them. So I'm curious: Have you experienced something spooky on your travels? If so, tell us what happened.

For example, maybe you stayed at a hotel in San Francisco that you thought was a normal hotel but ended up experiencing something that gave you the creeps.

Or maybe you visited an old town in Spain where you swore you saw a ghost down a creepy alleyway.

Finally, maybe you purposely went to check out a haunted place in New Orleans, but didn't expect much out of the trip — instead, you experienced technology malfunctions with your phone or camera that couldn't be explained.
