This is not the Willies, so much as just feeling heavy and sad. I visited the grounds of the concentration camp Buchenwald in former East Germany. The vibe there was one of misery and extreme sadness and gloom....it's almost like the land "holds that energy" and does not let you forget it.
This may sound strange, but I get the same feeling at a lot of War Between the States' battlefields. Sometimes, it's a horrible sadness, and other times, it's a frightening need to get away from such a place. I completely agree that the land itself "holds that energy".
