The Ghosts of Turnbull Canyon
<p>In the northwestern corner of the Puente Hills Preserve there is a desert haven filled with sycamore trees and sage-covered hills that is home to cottontail rabbits, coyotes, numerous species of birds and reptiles, and ghosts. On a clear day, hikers and mountain bikers get glorious views of Downtown Los Angeles as well as the nearby Hsi Lai Temple. Guests who are brave enough to visit after sundown, however, can expect a much spookier experience…</p>
<p>Located in Los Angeles County just outside of Whittier, CA, Turnbull Canyon is a four-mile trail that visitors who are sensitive to paranormal activity would do well to avoid. Although it is a popular hiking and mountain biking site today, it was once believed that the canyon’s original inhabitants referred to the area as “Hutuknga,” which translates to “The Dark Place” or, even more ominously, “The Place of the Devil.”</p>
