The Suicide Forest
Culturally fascinating and deeply disturbing. The Aokigahara Forest is the most popular site for suicides in Japan, and second in the world only to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge, at a rate of 50 to 100 deaths a year. The authorities sweep for bodies only on an annual basis, as the forest sits at the base of Mt. Fuji and is too dense to patrol more frequently.
The Island of the Dolls Known as “La Isla de la Muñecas”, by the Spanish,
The Island of the Dolls is perhaps the creepiest tourist attraction in Mexico. Located within an extensive network of canals, south of Mexico City, the island is a place of mystery and superstition. Almost every tree growing on the island is decorated with old, mutilated dolls that give anyone the feeling that they’re constantly being watched.
