There was a camp that was really mysterious.
It was built on an Indian burial ground by a lake where a bunch of teens had drowned across from an abandoned insane asylum. Strange sounds could be heard at night, and campers would constantly go missing.
Years later, after seeing strange flashes of light and floating objects in the sky, the campers would return un-aged and not aware any time had passed.
Weirder still were the camp classes:
You could take mind reading and future telling with the oldest counselor (who no one remembers hiring and seems to have always been impossibly old).
There was communing with spirits - which was particularly popular - always filled up.
Instead of basket weaving, campers would make stick figures to hang in trees as parts of spells.
You could combine this with woodworking where instructors taught you to make realistic and very effective voodoo dolls.
Hiking was done late at night, to eerily dark caves where glowing eyes looked out at you.
Fortunately, they did have two regular classes to sign up for: Swimming and archery.
So: You could say the mysterious camp had those pair of normal activities.
