If you love a thrill-seeking adventure and love ghost hunting, then these top 5 haunted places should be on your bucket list. From creepy dolls to spirits of angry victims, these places are  guaranteed to give you the chills.


⦁    Island of Dolls – Xochimilco, Mexico 
Located near Mexico City La Isla de las Muñecas (Island of Dolls) is known to terrify locals due to its tragic story. The legend is that in the 20’s, three young girls were playing and one of them fell and drowned in the river. Ever since then, many say the girl’s spirit hasn’t left. Later on, in the 50’s a man named Julian Santan Barrera moved into that area without the knowledge of its dark past. He reported hearing a young girls voice telling him how she had died and how she was trapped on that island. He later began to buy and hang dolls for this little girl, but soon those dolls weren’t enough. After telling his nephew that the girl wanted him to join her, he was found later that day, dead and face down on the same spot the little girl was found. Many say, that to this day you can hear a little girl whispering to you, see Julian’s ghost, and feel the dolls eyes following you. 

⦁    Old Changi Hospital – Changi, Singapore 
Built in 1935, this old Changi hospital was also a part of the Changi military base. During World War II the Japanese also used this hospital as a prison and internment camp. After World War II, the hospital remained opened as a general hospital until 1971. It has been reported that if you go there, you see ghosts of soldiers that had been executed, apparitions of old men and women, and hear screaming. 


⦁    Monte Cristo Homestead – New South Wales, Australia  

Australia’s most haunted house was built in 1876, by a late Victorian named Christopher Willam Crawley. Many ghosts are said to be here: there’s a young boy that had been dropped on the stairs, a stable boy that was left to burn to death, a maid that fell from the balcony, and, as people say is the most active ghost, the ghost of the son of a caretaker who was found curled up next to the body of his mother. 


⦁    Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum  

This asylum was home to many people with mental illnesses ever since 1864. Tragically, many people also died here and it was left to close in 1994. Many of the patients that died here still haunt this place to this day, as well as many patients that date back to the civil war era to when this facility was used as a military base. 


⦁    Mary Kings Close – Edinburg, Uk 

Small alleyways and tunnels under the old town in Edinburg are where many traders would settle washed down in the late 1600’s. After the plague hit, it was forced to be closed off to the public, but has been opened since then. If you go, many say to have an uneasy feeling or  the feeling a hand grabbing them. 


   These places are only some of the most terrifying, but they are sure to make anyone excited for an adventure.
