Maryland resident and TikToker Dylan Peroutka’s journey to Big Sur in California, to visit his best friend became, as he put it, his ‘Cabin in the Woods’ experience.
In a two-part TikTok storytime, he said his trip was “Sinister 4, Chapter Big Sur.” The first part of his account has already racked up over 2.4 million views. Peroutka explained that he didn’t do much research before heading west. “I thought it was a hot new menu item,” he said regarding the name Big Sur, mistakenly assuming it was a beach destination similar to Los Angeles. After flying into San Francisco and driving three hours to the location, he realized he was staying in a cabin deep in the woods and not a hotel-like space as he had assumed. To make matters more isolating, he was the only guest in his block of cabins.
