You're lost in the woods, it's the middle of the night, and all the creepy sounds of branches creaking and wind howling have you on the edge. Worse, you get the feeling you're being watched. Maybe it's a territorial wolf or Grizzly bear, maybe it's some mask-wearing chainsaw-wielding lunatic, maybe it's some carnivorous sasquatch, or a Wendigo, or some other local Boogeyman the people in town told you about. Are the sounds getting closer? You push on along the trail. Then you see what looks like a campsite up ahead and several cars. Whew! Now you’ll have shelter, a fire, food, help and transportation! Nope, this is an Abandoned Camp Ruins. The tents have been ripped to shreds, the fire has long since burnt out, the food boxes are empty and smouldering in the ashes and the cars the campers came in have been smashed and are in no condition to go anywhere. If there are any people left, expect them to be mutilated remains. This trope is often common in Horror Films set in the wild. It shows that others have been in the area before The Protagonist, and that the area is dangerous, no matter how good it sounded, or looked from the outside. Now that you're out here with the threat, you're in a fight for your life. Can be considered a Sub-Trope to Don't Go in the Woods, as that's definitely a place you're liable to find these. Can also apply to any other type of area where people like to go camping. These areas are frequently the disposal grounds of more than 1 victim. Compare Abandoned Playground, since both this and that are former places kids come to have fun. Compare also Abandoned Mine, as both are areas very remote and cut off from civilization. |

Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid: The group stumbles onto a tribal village after wading through the anaconda-infested swamps for days on end. Unfortunately, it's abandoned, with the strong implication that the natives were all eaten by the large number of snakes that arrived in the area very recently. | |

The Thing (1982): When MacReady and Doctor Copper visit the Norwegian base camp in Antarctica, they find the place ravaged. No structure is left intact, and much of it has been torched. The pair get one clue when they explore a storage hangar: something very like a Flying Saucer is embedded in ice. Apparently, the two Norwegians pursuing the "dog" were the last two from this camp; all the others died in a fiery fight for survival. | |

In The Simpsons at the very end of the episode "Boy Scout N' the Hood," while Homer, Bart, Ned, and Todd (Ned's younger son) are rescued (accidentally because of Homer), celebrity guest for the father/son-rafting trip Ernest Borgnine, and the other Junior campers get lost during the river expedition and ultimately stumble into an abandoned summer camp to rest before continuing their trek. As they sing a round of "Bingo was his Name-O'," a slasher stalks the camp, and the last shot of the episode is horror music playing while the camera pans into a screaming Borgine. | |

Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City: One sidequest involves investigating a campsite out in the Waterfall Woods. The surrounding area is quite beautiful, but the grounds themselves are in bloody disarray, thanks to the group being attacked by monsters in the middle of their sleep. Fortunately, they survived and made it back to Armoroad, leaving the site in ruins for your party to discover and assume the worst. | |

Bedtime Stories (YouTube Channel) has this as a recurring feature in episodes featuring unexplained disappearances in remote areas such as forests, mountains, and deserts. Often, said campsite ruins would feature destroyed tents, but surprisingly intact supply storages, untouched bags, and no signs of the former inhabitants. | |

Fallout 4: Frequently encountered spread out across the Commonwealth, often with feral ghouls or a deathclaw nearby to give a hint as to the fate of the campers. Though once cleared of the threat, can be a good place to search for loot or sleep to recuperate health (and save on Survival mode). Probably the best example is the Acadia National Park campground in the Far Harbor DLC (set on an island in Maine), as the island's eerie and persistent fog makes the area resemble a location pulled straight out of a Stephen King novel. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: The Zonai Survey Team often leave behind campsites in or near Zonai ruins where they could not proceed with their investigations any further. Link can usually find diaries left behind that give hints on how to solve nearby puzzles. |

Valheim: At the beginning of the game, you'll run into houses and villages built by the people who came to Valheim before you, which are useful as they give shelter, resources and sometimes food (some villages have boars and berry bushes, others have beehives). However, the further you explore, the more you run into houses occupied by monsters or undead, until even the starting Meadows biome has villages chock-full of draugr. Fortunately they all still have resources inside (and in some cases are the only way to get them). | |

Vigor: Several maps have the ruins of small campsites as points of interest, many of which are marked on an Outlander's map once discovered. While most of these isolated areas are completely ransacked and not really worth making a detour to pillage they can occasionally be looted for useful supplies and may be worth checking out if the player is passing through on a nearby path. | |
