The World's Creepiest Places

By Ralph Martin


Step away from that pumpkin! While we're more than happy to get into the swing of Halloween, we refuse to do a roundup of the trite and not-so-true haunted hotels around the world. Nonetheless, in our travels we've happened upon a number of places that are genuinely creepy, from a dive site among WWII wrecks in Micronesia to a tour through the eerie, abandoned town near Chernobyl in the Ukraine. You'd be wrong to dismiss these destinations as merely spooky stop-offs, too. Many have true historical significance (the Paris Catacombs and its links to the French Revolution), while others are destinations of great beauty (the Easter Islands in the Pacific Ocean). So in the spirit (sorry) of the season, here are 13 (sorry again) of the world's weirdest destinations. Sensitive souls should read on with caution.
 
The Chernobyl exclusion zone, as the article notes, is a great (and creepy) place! Ecologically, it's one of the best habitats in Europe for endangered species of all sorts. The wolves and bears abound there due to the lack of humans interfering with them. The town itself reminds one of something out of a Twilight Zone show after a neutron bomb went off. It's frozen in time, with relics from the Soviet Union everywhere.

Check out this photographic essay on the city, if you want to see what I mean.

I found it amusing how they included Perun's own little paradise in there :D

The place I'd love to go to is that Indian palace in the middle of the jungle and actually spend the night, specially since it is forbidden to do so, dun dun dun!

You're clearly hoping to witness some ghostly action in the Palace of the Prostitutes. :P
