Spooky season is upon us! When you're ready to get out of the house and live in a real-life horror movie, consider visiting one of these creepy destinations.
This city was flooded in 1959 and forgotten until 2001, when divers began to explore the remains of this now-underwater city.
The city is surprisingly well preserved, and there are a few tours taking divers to explore this eerie submerged city. If you are an experienced diver, you can join this multi-day diving trip from Shanghai.
This well-preserved fort is known for being the most haunted fort in India. So much so that no one is permitted to visit the fort after dark.
Surrounded by desolate villages, the tale of this fort is a classic: A man sees a beautiful princess and is "in love" with her, princess is not interested in this random man, random man happens to be a tantric priest, priest attempts to put a love spell on the princess, the princess finds out and evades the spell, priest then uses black magic to curse the princess for not loving him back, and then the whole village is cursed for eternity. And now the fort is believed to be haunted by the cursed villagers who can never be reborn.
The fort is located within India's Golden Triangle — a popular tourist route consisting of Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. Just a two-hour drive from Jaipur, it is a must-see site for those interested in its haunting history.
There are plenty of ways to visit the fort, either by car, taxi, or group tour. This group tour includes a private guide and transfer to Bhangarh Fort as well as the beautiful Chand Baori stepwell that's all over Instagram.
This 14th-century church in a small village outside of Prague is home to many ghosts — some may be real, but many are sculptures.
The church was abandoned when the roof collapsed during a funeral service. Considered a bad omen, it was left desolate for many years. No one could afford to renovate the church, until a local artist decided to create dozens of ghost sculptures to sit in the pews. The art installation attracted tourists and was able to raise enough money to repair the roof.
You can explore the church and enter or just peek inside. Visiting hours are not always regular, but for now you can visit the church on Saturdays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
This forest is filled with crooked trees, contorted into strange shapes almost as if they're attempting to warn visitors. Known as the Bermuda Triangle of Translyvania, there have been many reports of UFO sightings, ghost encounters, and unexplainable illness.
There are many legends and stories about this forest, perhaps the creepiest being about a young girl who disappeared, only to emerge five years later with no recollection of what had happened.
Definitely enter at your own risk — you never know what the Hoia Baciu Forest might have in store for you...
