Atlantic Ocean, Bermuda Triangle

Bermuda Triangle

Long-running urban legends of lost sailors, missing ships, crashed planes, and even vanishing persons have their origins in the waters around the Bermuda Triangle.There are several theories as to why so many tourists lose their lives in this vast area, which spans more than 500,000 square miles and is also known as the Devil's Triangle because of its snares.

Some claim that tropical cyclones are to blame, others that magnetic anomalies are to blame, and yet others that there is simply no mystery at all! With Bermuda's coves in the north and the sun-drenched Turks and Caicos islands in the south, visiting the area nowadays may be a lot more enjoyable than you might anticipate.

Canada's The Banff Springs Hotel

The Banff Springs Hotel

A number of ghost stories and spooky incidents are said to have taken place at the Banff Springs Hotel in Canada, which has been compared to the Timberline Lodge from Stanley Kubrick's The Shining.

Locals assert that room 873 was the scene of a family's terrible murder. Some people talk of doormen who vanish and then reappear. But if you think you can handle the legendary reputation, you're in for a real treat.

The elegant hotel exudes Scottish Baronial influences, is surrounded by the Canadian Rockies' fir-draped peaks and provides access to the famous ski resorts of Jasper and Banff.

worth the danger? Yes, in our opinion!

 

Romania's Transylvania

The spooky aura of this large territory in the very center of Romania is enhanced by sylvan hills and mist-covered mountains, the ringing echo of church bells, and the stone-built towns with medieval steeples, including Sibiu, Brasov, and Cluj. But Bran Castle is the one place where one may actually get goosebumps. This Gothic-style fortification with turrets rises from the edge of the Wallachian woodland with gargoyle-adorned roofs.

Over the years, it has been connected to a number of dubious, enigmatic figures, such as Count Dracula, the legendary Nosferatu, and Vlad the Impaler, the deadliest of the Wallachian kings.

 

India's Bhangarh Fort

Bhangarh Fort

There are legends that a cursed princess and her would-be kidnapper, the wizard Sinhai, haunt the old walls of the Bhangarh Fort. The Aravali Hills rise around them, and the Rajasthani heat roasts them.

It is said that Sinhai tried to woo the young princess by offering her a love potion. The wizard's strategy failed, and he died, but not before casting a curse on every resident of Bhangarh. Madho Singh, I once strolled into the Mughlai complex, which is today recognized as one of India's most eerie places. No one is allowed to enter after dark, and according to the locals, the enduring curse has even been linked to fatalities!

 

England's Tower of London

Tower of London

Between the crenulations of London's historic castle on the north bank, all sorts of nefarious and shady activities have taken place, including the killing of monarchs, the imprisonment of state adversaries, and the scheming of political intrigues from the Tudors to the Elizabethans. The appearance of Thomas Becket (a martyred saint), who is claimed to have prevented the palace's enlargement from the afterlife, gave rise to tales of hauntings and eerie occurrences. Perhaps the most stunning recovery is that of a particular Queen Anne Boleyn, whose headless body was discovered lurking near the site of her 1530s execution under Henry VII's command!

 

America's Eternal Flame Falls

Discover Shale Creek's hidden beauty by exploring the winding walking routes that go through Chestnut Ridge Park. Eternal Flame Falls, an appropriate moniker for this peculiar natural phenomenon, is a sight to behold. Why? That is because it successfully brings together two of the planet's most fundamental forces in one place. You will first notice the magnificent falls themselves as they descend over granite rock layers. The flame then emerges, flickering behind cataracts.

 

Mauritania's Richat Structure

Mauritania's Richat Structure

The vast Richat Structure in the depths of Mauritania is something genuinely enigmatic, appearing to whirl, spin, and twist like a cyclone through the center of the powerful Sahara Desert (but you'll definitely have to take to the sky to see it!). For years, the origin of the ideal circular arrangement of concentric rings has baffled scientists. Some people speculate that an asteroid strike occurred centuries ago. Others claim that it was just a straightforward instance of geological erosion and attrition. And then, of course, there are others who believe it was an extraterrestrial creation that came this way and left an imprint on the planet for future visits.

 

England's Highgate Cemetery

England's Highgate Cemetery

In London's Highgate Cemetery, there are gravestones covered in moss, tall oak trees, vines and ivy shoots, and other supernatural occurrences. Many people believe this location to be the most haunted in all of the United Kingdom (the Tower of London is omitted, of course). With ancient heavenly figures lurking in the shadows, gargoyles giggling from cracks, and countless rows of graves stretching into the horizon, the scene is undoubtedly enough to make the blood run cold. Some paranormal investigators claim to have witnessed apparitions darting among the Gothic carvings. Others claim that there are vampires hiding in the dark.

Australia's Uluru

Uluru

The massive monolith known as Uluru stands in the centre of the Australian Outback. A massive sandstone boulder that resembles the carapace of a petrified animal shoulders its way far above the surrounding flatlands. A wonderfully beautiful location, it draws everyone from hikers to history enthusiasts (who come mainly for the pre-historic petroglyphs that mark the caves nearby).

But the location, also known as Ayers Rock, serves as a focal point for long-standing Australian Aboriginal customs. They think it's one of the few remaining residences of the creatures that built the world, the "creators." Other people, whatever they are, come here to reenergize at the fluvial channels that run beneath the rock.
