Some sites are ideal for expressing your strange and amazing interests in the supernatural, while others will make you want to leap out of your skin. While some of these locations are just amazing to visit, this place is full of mystery in every direction.
1. Bermuda Triangle, Atlantic Ocean
The Bermuda Triangle's seas have long been the source of legends about missing sailors, vanished ships, crashed planes, and even vanished people. The wide region of more than 500,000 square miles is also referred to as the Devil's Triangle, and there are various ideas as to why so many travellers end themselves in 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 can be a lot more enjoyable than you might anticipate.
2. Crooked Forest
A little group of just over 400 pine trees on Poland's extreme eastern coast, south of the unpronounceable city of Szczecin and a short distance from the German border, has long attracted the interest of Atlas Obscura types and off-the-beaten-path tourists. The entire forest looks to be twisted back and forth at the trunk, almost 90 degrees, before climbing upwards towards the Slavic sky.
There has been much discussion about what caused the odd wood to take on its current appearance, with hypotheses ranging from blizzards to lumberjack growing methods.
3. Canada's The Banff Springs Hotel
The (renowned) Banff Springs Hotel of Canada must be well known to anyone who enjoys Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. The hotel is a hotbed of enigmatic secrets, ghost tales, and strange events. Locals claim that a family was brutally killed in room 873, and as a result, their ghosts are said to haunt the hotel to this day. Many people mention doormen who, when seen, keep vanishing into thin air and reappearing.
4. India's Kamakhya Devi Temple
The beautiful Kamakhya Devi is a hilltop temple in the Assam region of northeastern India. In India, where Goddess Kali is revered, it is also one of the Shakti Peethas (locations where Goddess Sati's body parts descended to Earth). According to legend, Sati's yoni, or vagina, fell on the site where the Kamakhya temple now stands.
Every year, for three days in a particular month, the temple experiences a very mysterious event. The Brahmaputra River, which flows close to the temple, is thought to become crimson with the goddess' blood during her menstrual cycle.
5. Rajasthan's abandoned village of Kuldhara
More than 1,500 Paliwal Brahmins, descended from a group that had lived in the area for more than five centuries, lived in Kuldhara about 200 years ago. However, all 85 villages' inhabitants as well as the general populace escaped one day. Overnight.
Folklore holds that the inhabitants of Kuldhara departed the village with a curse, banning any further settlements, rather than just leaving it as it was. Today, all that is left are a few decaying structures, an ancient temple, and rumours that attempt to explain the unexpected evacuation.
6. Bhangarh Fort, Rajasthan
Bhangarh Fort, which was constructed in the 17th century, was Rajasthan's centre of activity. It was said to have been so stunning that Jaipur's Pink City was modelled after it. The Bhangarh Fort is currently known as one of the most spooky places in India, yet its prosperous days were short-lived. So much so that even the notice board for the Archaeological Survey of India prohibits visitors from entering the fort between dusk and dawn.
Some people believe it's a curse, while others think the wicked spirit of a magician who loved the princess of Bhangarh resides there. Although there is no proof to support any of the rumours, visitors describe feeling uneasy as they enter the fort
7. Easter Island in Polynesia
Early in the first millennium AD, the eastern Polynesian Rapa Nui peoples arrived and started exploring Easter Island's windswept coastlines. Of course, it wasn't called Easter Island back then; that moniker came from the Dutch explorer Jacob Roggeveen, who discovered the island in 1722. He would have been amazed by what he found: innumerable effigies of enormous heads that had been chiselled and chipped from the area's black basalt boulders.
The so-called moai heads, which number over 880, are believed to each represent the last survivor of a particular tribal familial clan.
