My day job requires me to spend a lot of time wandering around Google Maps, trying to figure out whether or not a client gave us a real physical address. It sounds weird when I try to explain that to people. I like it, though, because I get to stare at satellite images of places all over the United States and Canada, especially remote rural areas just begging to be a horror movie set. Sometimes I find really cool stuff! Sometimes I find questionable and creepy stuff.
This morning, wandering around a remote region of Michigan, I stumbled across the template for an elaborate corn maze. It’s pretty impressive, with a volcano, tiny dancing people, a skull, and a lava flow.
According to the listing on the Map, the land is part of Jacob’s Farm, which has a great website at jacobscornmaze.com. The photo gallery on their website has aerial shots of past mazes.
Just keep in mind that, without a Street View, the resolution available through Google Maps generally isn’t strong enough to make out old blood stains.
