Jenna’s road trip with her baby son took a chilling detour when they discovered a town where every roof was painted green and modern technology was forbidden. As she navigated the eerie streets and confronted the unsettling locals, Jenna uncovered secrets that made her desperate to escape. I should have known better than to trust the GPS, but there I was, a 29-year-old single mom on a road trip with my 1-year-old son, Noah.

After my divorce, I decided to take a spontaneous road trip to clear my mind and bond with my little boy.It was supposed to be an adventure: just the two of us exploring new places and finding solace in the open road. Noah had been a trooper, babbling happily in his car seat as we sang along to nursery rhymes. But after three hours on the highway, the GPS instructed me to take a turn onto an old, bumpy road. I hesitated, glancing at the map. It didn’t look like the main route, but sometimes the scenic route could be more fun, right? Oh, how wrong I was. After an hour of driving on this desolate road, it became clear that I was lost. Noah started getting fussy, his little cries growing louder by the minute.
