We don’t like to talk about it much, let alone think about it. But the truth of the matter is that the Apocalypse does cross our minds from time to time. And wouldn’t you like to be prepared for it? We’re not saying we’re experts or anything, but we’ve come up with some places you might want to consider relocating to should Doomsday come up. Here’s our very unscientific (and totally silly) list of places you should get to know better.

It's said this place sits on a Native American burial site and that the souls of both native peoples and American troops continue to haunt the grounds. Could be a good place to hide out, considering most other folks would be too spooked to visit. Plus, it's secured so you can see invaders from behind the safety of its walls.
