Seven Creepiest Travel Destinations Around the World
You might have visited several places. In this world, there are some beautiful places to visit, and when it comes to some of the creepiest destinations, there are many which will cause shivering in your body. These entire destinations are creepy, but at the same time, they attract many visitors who love creepy things and destinations. But, it is advised that people with a soft heart should not visit these places or never visit this place alone. There is some reason behind using the word creepiest while mentioning these places. Here are the 7 creepiest travel destinations around the world:
7. House of the Bulgarian Communist Party — Mount Buzludzha, Bulgaria
At number 7 in our list, we place the House of the Bulgarian communist party. This place served as the hub of the communist party of Bulgaria when it was inaugurated in 1981. With the fall of the Soviet reign in this area, this place was abandoned to show the demise of the ruling party.
Most of the rooftop parts have been stolen, leaving the entire place alone. The locals are trying hard to open this place as a tourist attraction, but the cost is so high that the government has not taken further steps.
6. Wonderland Amusement Park — Beijing, China
At no. 6 is the Wonderland park of Beijing. This amusement park was built to create the same attraction as Disney Land. In 1998, some disputes over the ground resulted in the halting of the construction of this park.
The amusement park covers many areas, and after abandonment, it feels like the house of the ghost. Most of the lands are being used now for growing crops by the farmers residing in the nearby areas. It has been heard that the structure will be demolished and pave the way for the construction of a shopping mall.
5. Marlboro Psychiatric Hospital — Marlboro Township, New Jersey, United States
After visiting this place, the first impression you will have about this place is, “is this a set of some horror movie?”. But the answer is no. At no. 5 on our list is the Psychiatric Hospital of Marlboro Town, U.S.A. This hospital lasted about 67 years from the day it was opened in the year 1931.
This hospital is creepy because of the events within its boundaries. Several admitted patients went missing; some choked to death, and some, in a dramatic manner, got frozen to death.
These sorts of incidents led to the investigation in the early 1970s. The Public Advocate office carried out the investigation. But even after the investigation, this hospital operated for nearly 2 decades.
Now, the government plans to demolish this building and build a place for recreation for people residing nearby.
4. Pripyat, Ukraine
What can be creepier than a whole town being vacated? Number 4 on our list is the town of Pripyat in Ukraine. In the year 1986, the famous incident of the leakage in the Chernobyl nuclear plant took place.
This area comes near the power plant as it was used to provide housing facilities for thousands of plant workers. The incident led to the evacuation of the entire city. This city is empty, and the ill effects of the radiation can be seen.
3. Hotel del Salto — San Antonio del Tequendama, Colombia
Once a hotel with a perfect view of natural beauty, the Hotel Del Salto of the San Antonia, Colombia, is in the 3rd place on our list. In 1923, this hotel was built for customers alongside the Tequendama waterfall.
In the 1950s, the name Del Salto was given to this hotel. There are many stories related to the abandonment of this hotel. Some say that the contamination of the nearby waterfall resulted in the abandonment, while others believe that the hotel served as a site for several suicides. This hotel has been transformed into a museum.
2. Villa Epecuén — Buenos Aires Province, Argentina
Once, what was a tourist attraction has turned into an abandoned place. At no. 2 we have the Villa Epecuen, Buenos Aires. This place, in the early part of the 1980s, served as a tourist attraction. This village was built near the lake Epecuen, whose water was maintained by the nearby dam.
The year 1985 brought catastrophe with it as the dam broke down and the whole village was flooded. Later, the water went away, but the village is still vacant.
1. Isla de las Muñecas — Mexico City, Mexico
It is a place where you will have goose-bumps, and the blood will become cold; at the top of our list is the Isla de las Muñecas, or the Island of the Dolls. This island is situated in the outer area of Mexico City.
This island is the house of countless dolls. Several dolls are hanging here and there on the walls and the trees.
The story behind these dolls is mind-blowing. The island’s caretaker found a dead girl in a canal that used to flow near the island. He used to collect these dolls and hang them on the walls or the trees to calm down the dead girl’s spirit. To add to this event, in 2001, the caretaker was found dead. You won’t believe that the spot of his death was the same as that of that girl.
All these places are creepy from the very first sight. There are many thrilling stories about these places, and some creepy events happened at these places too. So, please be careful if you plan to visit any of these places.
