If you're not a huge fan of camping to begin with, then this ‘Owl Scouts’ photo series by Todd Baxter will put you off the whole thing for life. Besides the morbid storyline and theme, the shots are incredibly detailed and disturbing.
Featured in the series are two young children who come across unfortunate circumstances while lost in the woods. Be sure to check out the gallery for the full effect. However, if you’re not into gore, maybe you should sit this one out.
