Crazy Horse Memorial - Crazy Horse, SD
When traveling through western South Dakota, do not miss the Crazy Horse Memorial. First of all, this thing is HUGE and they do not anticipate it being finished for another 50 years. However, there is a lot to do on the Memorial grounds and lots of history for you to learn about. This is a can't miss Black Hills Destination. This is how it appeared in June of 2018.

Hansen's Cafe - "Children of the Corn" Filming Location - Hornick, IA
The interiors of Hansen's Café were actually in Hornick, Iowa. The building burned down and was razed, but you can see Isaac looking in the window of the café in the above still from the film. I stood approximately where he stood and took the photo across the street. As you can see the backgrounds match up.
Below is the location in April of 2018. The front of the cafe's foundation still remains! You can find it on Main Street in Hornick, Iowa.
