Halloween is over, but the wicked places
in our world didn’t disappear together with it. They are thrilling the
lovers of adrenalin and scary stories, who are willing to see something,
from which normal tourists hastily run away.
So here I have compiled a list of some of the weirdest and scary tourist attraction in the world, one is scarier than another.
Mutter Museum of Medical History, Philadelphia
Mutter Museum of Medical History in
Philadelphia is the museum of pathologies, old medical equipment and
biological exhibit items. The museum is most famous for its giant
collection of skulls.
Truk Lagoon, Micronesia
Much of Japanese Navy forces are now
lying at the bottom of shallow Truk Lagoon in Micronesia, southwest of
Hawaii. These Blue depths are full with wrecks of battleships and
aircraft carriers, sunk in the year 1944 and is now open for divers.
Sonora Witchcraft Market in Mexico City, Mexico
Sonora market is opened everyday to
pilgrims from Mexico City and tourists from far beyond who come here for
fortune predictions and promises of better life. This is the place
where the local population buys “supernatural” stuff like some blood of
rattlesnake or dried hummingbirds for taming the luck.
Easter Island, Chile
One of the most mysterious places on
earth is Easter Island, with huge, cut out stone figures of giants,
ingrown in the soil under the weight of millenniums. Statues are staring
in the skies, as if they were guilty of some mystical crimes.
Manchac Swamps, Louisiana
Boats with tourists, floating through
the swamps in the torchlight are surrounded by old cypresses and long
threads of moss hanging down from the branches of cypresses. Manchac
Swaps are also called “ghost swaps”.
Paris Catacombs, France
Bones and skulls are packed on both
sides of the corridor like goods in the warehouse. The air here is dry
and bears only a slight hint of decomposition. Here are also some
letterings, in general dating from the French Revolution, which are
flagging king and noblemen. They stretch for about 187 kilometers under
the whole city and only insignificant part of them is opened to public.
Winchester House, San Jose, California
It is said that ghosts of madness for a
girl name Sarah live in 160 rooms of the house. Since the house was
opened to public, there are ceaseless complaints about weird happenings.
Even if tourists do not believe in ghosts, the place shocks by its
immensity.
Mary King’s dead-end, Edinburgh
Several streets with dark past hidden
under the medieval Old Town in Edinburgh. The place, where in the
XVII-th century the plague victims were closed up and left to die, is
famous for its poltergeists. Recently it was opened for tourists, who
were attracted by the stories about its supernatural spirits.
Occult Abbey of Thelema, Sicily
Aleister Crowley – is perhaps one of
most odious occultists in the world, and this stone farm house filled
with dark pagan wall-paintings, once was the cosmopolis of satanic
orgies. At least, it was considered to be such in 1920-s. Crowley is
known because of his fans, such as Marilyn Manson. Tourists, apt to
esotericism can wander there and thrill themselves.
Chernobyl, Ukraine
Tourists, coming to Ukraine, in the
abandoned city of Pripyat, find themselves in the exclusion zone. Here,
all the stuff is left in hurry in that horrible 1986, when Chernobyl NPP
accident made thousands of people leave their homes forever.
