20 TRUE Horror Stories From Texas Rest Areas After Midnight

When the sun sets on the highways of Texas, the rest areas turn into something else entirely. These are twenty true accounts from travelers, truckers, and night patrol workers who stopped for just a few minutes and never looked at the Lone Star State the same way again. From the forgotten picnic tables of FM 666 to the dimly lit bathrooms off I-10, every story tonight comes from a real place you can still find on the map. Some of them are still open. Others were quietly shut down after midnight incidents no one wanted to explain. Turn off the lights. Turn up the volume. This is Creepy Vibes — true Texas horror after dark.
