If you are interested in abandoned buildings and ghosts, then we offer you a kind of guide: in these abandoned buildings located in different corners light, according to local legends, you can not only touch history, but also meet ghosts. Almost all of these places can be visited on your own, since access to them is free, but we still strongly recommend visiting there only virtually. So, let's begin:
Berengaria Hotel
Where: Prodromos, Cyprus
The heyday of the hotel, built in 1930 by a wealthy man, came in the 1950s and 70s, bringing considerable profit. However, the death of the owner of the hotel predicted a sad fate for his brainchild. He bequeathed the management of the hotel to his three sons, who at first managed to run the family business. However, later, when quarrels began on the basis of the distribution of profits, all three brothers died one after another under very strange circumstances. They say that this is the owner and the hotel took revenge on them for failing to keep their promise. Everything that could be taken out of the hotel was taken out by local residents, and the hotel fell into complete disrepair. It is said that the ghosts of the brothers settled in the ruins of the building.
Bhangarh Fort (Fort Bangar)
Where: on the way to Alwar and Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
On the way to the castle, signs are striking, which strictly forbid approaching it after sunset, since whoever dares to do this will never come back! The legend says that a black magician sent a curse on Bangar and its inhabitants because the shadow from the fort fell on sacred place which was intended for meditation. He cursed everyone, saying that they would die a painful death, and their spirits would remain in the castle for centuries. That's how it all happened. This castle really inspires animal fear in every mortal. The government of India somehow decided to debunk the terrible myth and set up armed patrols in the fort, but there are still daredevils.
Diplomat Hotel
Where: Baguio, Philippines
Residents of houses in the vicinity complain of chilling sounds - moans, screams, slamming doors, hurried steps - coming, they say, from the side of an abandoned hotel. During the Second World War, this building served as a refuge for refugees, repeatedly subjected to shelling and bombing. The soldiers of the Japanese army executed many innocent sisters of mercy here. When a hotel was opened in the building in the 70s of the last century, its inhabitants repeatedly imagined the silhouettes of mysterious black figures walking around the halls, appearing in the windows hiding behind the curtains.
St. John's Hospital (St. John's Hospital) 
Where: Lincolnshire, England
This hospital, founded in 1852, was created for the sick poor who suffered from mental disorders. For obvious reasons, few people cared about the fate of poor patients, so cruel methods of treatment were used on the unfortunate patients. When in 1989, after the closure of the hospital, employees were asked to remove all available medical equipment from the building, they did not manage to spend even a couple of days there. According to the men, they were constantly haunted by terrifying screams of unknown origin. Firefighters were called to the abandoned hospital more than once, as it seemed to people passing by by chance that flames were escaping from the windows. The fire brigades that came each time did not find any signs of a fire, but they saw some strange lights flickering in the corridors.
Salesian School (salesian school)
Where: Goshen, New York, USA
This Catholic school for boys was built on the territory of a former aristocratic estate. She enjoyed honor and respect until one day, in 1964, one of her pupils died: 9-year-old Paul Ramos fell to his death, falling from the roof of one of the educational buildings. Then the death of the boy was explained by a tragic accident, but at the beginning of the 2000s, this case again interested the press and special services. As it turned out, the body of the pupil lay too far from the school building: in order for it to fall at such a distance, someone had to push it, but finding the killer is, of course, unrealistic. Currently, the school building is under guard, but those few daredevils who managed to get past it and approach the abandoned building, in the window openings, according to them, saw the silhouette of a boy.
Baldoon Castle
Where: Bladnock, Scotland
During the day, the ruins of the castle do not evoke anything sinister at all, but at night here, they say, you can see the ghost of the bride Janet Dalrymple, dressed in a bloody wedding dress. According to legend, in the middle of the 17th century, her parents forced her to marry the rich owner of this castle, although she herself loved a poor guy named Archibald. However, the girl did not have to marry the unloved girl. A few minutes before the bride's entrance to the wedding ceremony, she was found stabbed to death in a room where the brides were waiting for their entrance to the altar. Some say that this is the work of a rejected lover, while others believe that Janet committed suicide.
Great Isaac Cay Lighthouse
Where: Great Isaac Cay, Bahamas
The designation of this island is not in every map, but its coordinates are well known to ghost hunters. Legend has it that in the 19th century, a shipwreck occurred not far from the islet, in which only little child. No one knows how his fate turned out, but still at night around the abandoned lighthouse the spirit of the child's mother, a lady in gray, roams, crying bitterly from grief. Two caretakers who lived here disappeared in 1969 under unclear circumstances. Their bodies have not been found so far. Many associate this secret with the fact that the island is territorially located in bermuda triangle, although according to skeptics, people simply died during Hurricane Anna, which carried their bodies into the ocean.
Waverly Hills Sanatorium (Waverly Hills Sanatorium)
Where: Louisville, Kentucky, USA
The building of the former sanatorium for tuberculosis patients has been recognized more than once as one of the most creepy places within the US. Students of pan-anomalous activity find it to be very high here. To a large extent, this refers to the "tunnel of death", which was originally cut for the employees of the sanatorium: in this way, they got to their jobs faster and safer, bypassing the rather steep slopes of the hill. And later, this tunnel began to be used to secretly take out the bodies of deceased patients: the living did not need to see how their neighbors in the ward set off on their last journey. Ghosts were seen not only in a narrow and terrifyingly dark corridor, but also inside separate rooms. So, for example, in the 502nd room lives the spirit of a nurse who hanged herself here after she, being pregnant, became aware that she had contracted tuberculosis. Those who wish to visit the abandoned sanatorium can do this as part of an excursion group.
If you have great stamina, most of these places can be easily visited.
1. Parisian catacombs - Paris, France.
At the very beginning of the history of Paris, when Christianity flourished, the practice of burying the dead became applicable not on the outskirts, but within the city. As the city grew, its cemeteries became overcrowded and unsanitary.
The areas surrounding the most popular cemeteries were so heavily polluted with decaying remains that a new large-scale burial ground was needed. In the late 1700s, six million Parisian "dead" were exhumed and transferred to the underground tunnels of the Parisian catacombs. It is said that hostile spirits whose bodies have been disturbed now haunt the tunnels.
Visitors say that not only human remains, neatly buried row after row, but also supernatural phenomena: cold spots, the feeling of being watched, shadowy figures, and there were even several cases of suffocation by ghosts.
2. Island of the Dolls - Xochimilco, Mexico
Imagine yourself floating lazily down a maze of rather small canals in Xochimilco, south of Mexico City. You see other trachinera gondolas - colorful boats carrying visitors, live traditional music playing next to you while you enjoy breakfast, looking at the wildlife and tastefully manicured gardens on the islands passing by.
Then you look up and realize that instead of wildlife, you are actually surrounded by dolls. Your boat has sailed away, the music has died down and there are only dolls around - mutilated, dirty, nasty dolls. Thanks to Don Julian Santana Barrera. The story goes that Barrera found the body of a little girl near his island in the canals. He believed that he was haunted by her ghost, and decided that these creepy dolls would help protect him from the spirit of the girl.
As might be expected, he spent the next quarter of a century hiding in his house until he died... or rather drowned in the very spot on the river where the girl's body is said to have been found. Visitors to the island are convinced that the puppets have taken on the girl's spirit or are self-producing evil spirits, and are often seen whispering to each other.
3. Roscray Castle, Offaly, Ireland
If there is a room in the old castle called "Bloody Chapel" - that's enough for me to keep my foot out of this building. The chapel got its name and ghost story sometime in the mid-1500s, when the chapel priest was stabbed to death in the middle of a service by his crazy brother, who left him to bleed to death on the altar.
The underground dungeon - the long, spiked shaft at the back of the chapel where the castle's enemies were dumped to be killed - is another likely source for the 20 or so spirits that are rumored to appear in the building today. The most feared of these is the Elemental, a hunched-over creature with a decaying face that smells of rotting body and brimstone.
4. Larundel Psychiatric Hospital - Bandura, Australia
In 1953, Larundel Psychiatric Hospital opened its doors to hundreds of patients with varying degrees of mental illness and psychosis, as well as one famous patient who, after his stay at the facility, became one of Australia's most infamous serial killers. Today, the building is covered in graffiti such as pictures of monsters, straitjackets and bizarre eyes.
Parts of the building were badly damaged by fire, which is believed to have caused the restless spirits. People, exploring the area, often talk about loud noises, strong, unpleasant odors, and sometimes you can hear children crying or - which is somehow even creepy - laughter.
The most common sound heard is that of the young girl's music box on the third floor. The girl is said to have died there, and occasionally appears to visitors in a nightgown with a box in her hands.
5. Tower of London - London, England
From the 1070s Tower of London used as a royal residence, menagerie, mint and treasury, arsenal, but most often it is remembered as a torture chamber and a prison used by English monarchs to satisfy their thirst for violent punishment. The spirit of Anne Boleyn, who was executed here in 1536, haunts several parts of the tower, especially in the place where she was executed.
Her ghost was seen wandering around the Chapel Royal without a head. Another victim of Henry VIII, the Countess of Salisbury, before she was beheaded, managed to escape, but the executioners caught up with her throwing an ax that killed her - a terrible scene that is repeatedly played out by spirits and which can be seen by visiting the Green Tower.
6. Linda Vista Hospital - Los Angeles, California, USA
The Linda Vista Hospital in Los Angeles previously flourished. But since East End Los Angeles neighborhood is changing, both customers and employees have changed. In the 1970s and 80s on quality medical care The decision by doctors to move to hospitals in wealthier areas has taken a toll, resulting in an unusually high death rate in Linda Vista.
By 1991, the hospital ceased to exist and quickly emptied. In the following years, the building quickly fell into disrepair, and rumors spread of screams in the night, inexplicable voices, ghosts, and disembodied, insanely creepy humming. City explorers swear that the little girl is still hanging in one of the old operating theaters, and sometimes tries to grab the hand of a living person to calm her down.
The hospital is going to be converted into an apartment for the elderly, if there are any grandparents that you especially dislike.
7. Aokigahara Suicide Forest - at the foot of Mount Fuji, Japan
The dense forest of Aokigahara was popular place suicide before Wataru Tsurumi's 1993 bestseller The Complete Guide to Suicide, who called it the perfect place to die. Suicide was so common here that in the 1970s, annual sweeps were instituted by the government to remove bodies - most of which were found in various stages of decay, hanging from trees in nooses.
Approximately 70-100 bodies are found here every year, so it is terrifyingly likely that the sounds of weeping heard through the trees may be from real living people committing suicide, but many believe that the forest is cursed with the torture of the souls of the dead here. In any case, I would not like to find out the details.
8. Edinburgh Castle - Edinburgh, Scotland
Castle Dungeons, especially since 900 -year history have seen different hard times. The dungeons of Edinburgh Castle are haunted by the spirits of such strange personalities as Lady Janet Douglas, who was accused of being a witch and later burned at the stake (along with 300 other women who were burned in the history of the castle), Prince Alexander Stuart Albany, who escaped , killing the guards and burning their bodies.
When visiting, we expect to see their ghosts and the spirits of a headless drummer, a phantom piper, a stray dog from a dog cemetery, and many other deceased prisoners roaming the halls. Visitors also report an eerie feeling of being watched, unnatural fluctuations in temperature, breath sounds coming from nowhere, and, worst of all, invisibility touching their faces.
9. Igorot Burial Caves - Echo Valley, Sagada, Philippines
For centuries, coffins containing the remains of famous citizens of the small mountain town of Sagada in the Philippines were hung along the cliffs of the Echo Valley. The tradition is related to the belief of the Igorot tribe that hanging the bodies of the dead brings them closer to heaven, and in addition saves their bodies from animal scavengers.
The tradition is rooted in the depths of centuries, some decaying coffins fall off the rocks, and the area around is a little terrifying because of this. Along with the coffins suspended from the rocks, many coffins fill the caves below.
According to local residents not only coffins and remains are in the Echo Valley. Sometimes whispering voices are heard, and shadows appear here and there. There were also rumors that the ghosts of the caves were mischievous, but the people of Igorot usually say that if you just show some respect and don't disturb the coffins, you'll walk out of the valley unscathed.
10. Cecile Hotel - Los Angeles, California, USA
The Cecile Hotel in downtown Los Angeles has a reputation for being where you might not want to stay due to drug addicts, serial killers and really scammed tourists. It was first heard of in 1947, in connection with the still unsolved case of the murder of the Black Orchid girl, in subsequent years the hotel was associated with several more mysterious deaths.
After a number of suicides and several murders in the rooms, the hotel gained notoriety as the residence of serial killers Richard Ramirez (Night Stalker) in 1985 and Jack Anterweger (Vienna Strangler) in 1991. And then there was Eliza Lam, who disappeared from the hotel earlier this year. Shortly after her disappearance, a video was released showing Eliza in a hotel elevator (at her last known location) frantically pushing buttons, hiding, peeking furtively down the hallway, and waving her arms into the hallway.
A few weeks later, after hotel residents complained about the smelly and strange-tasting water, her body was found at the bottom of one of the rooftop water tanks, although the area had been sealed with an emergency door. With no visible signs of injury and no banned substances in her body, her death was ruled an accident.
If you believe that she accidentally stripped naked and climbed without a ladder into one of the 2.5-meter-high water tanks, fell inside and closed the tank lid behind her, then yes - there is nothing wrong with Cecile's hotel at all.
11. Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum - Phnom Penh, Cambodia
The most horrific holiday destination - an estimated 14,000 men, women and children were imprisoned by the Khmer Rouge, the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum in Phnom Penh has seen many horrors over the past few decades. There is nothing unexpected about rumors of restless spirits in a place where thousands of horror stories have taken place.
Museum workers have been known to leave food during their lunch break for the spirits - they say they can't otherwise eat in peace due to poltergeist activity and loud crackling. Guards say they have seen shadowy figures wandering around at night and regularly hear screaming and banging inside buildings.
Other workers also say that the spirits of the dead come to them in their dreams at night. As horrific as it is to think of the thousands of tortured souls roaming the scene of their brutal murders, the reality of what actually happened in those cells sounds a hell of a lot scarier.
12. Lemp Mansion - St. Louis, Missouri, USA
The history of the Lemp family in St. Louis began in 1838, when Johann Adam Lemp built his small store to sell food, household items, and his own lager beer. The light beer was so popular that Lemp started a brewing business, which made his family and himself very rich.
Despite their success, the Lemp family survived 4 suicides (and the murder of an unfortunate dog). And it all happened in their mansion. After the last member of this family died, the mansion was turned into a boarding house, and the building began to collapse. After the sounds of walking, knocking and other strange sounds, people began to say that the building was inhabited by ghosts.
Today, you can rent rooms in the mansion and check out the existence of visions, other moving objects, and leave a toy in the attic for the ghost of William Jr.'s illegitimate son. He was everyone's favorite.
13. Chernobyl - Pripyat, Ukraine
300,000 people were evacuated from areas surrounding Chernobyl on April 26, 1986. Hundreds of residents and members of clean-up teams have died from radioactive poisoning, and people living in neighboring towns have been exposed to radiation for years. 
Although the area has been vacant for nearly 30 years, the site and the abandoned villages surrounding it have been the scene of strange phenomena. Witnesses reported seeing ghostly figures moving through the streets and buildings, especially near the hospital in Pripyat. But the saddest reports actually came BEFORE the crash.
Reports of winged, gigantic shadowy figures - human-shaped but with glowing red eyes - began to surface in the vicinity of Chernobyl in the weeks before the accident. People also reported nightmares and threatening phone calls, all around watching what became known as the Black Bird of Chernobyl. The inexplicable continued until the morning of April 26. After the accident, the Black Bird of Chernobyl was never seen.
14. Shanghai Tunnels - Portland, Oregon, USA
Portland's underground network of tunnels was heavily exploited between the 1850s and 1940s for human trafficking and other seedy purposes. Many of those who made it to Shanghai—falling into tunnels through hatches hidden in bars and other questionable establishments, sold as laborers on long sea voyages—didn't survive.
The dark and dusty passages are now home to the souls of former tunnel workers and those who were trapped and imprisoned there, such as "Strawberry" - a little girl who lived in the basement with Nina, a long-dead prostitute.
15. Cannibal Village - Nabutautau, Fiji
In 1867, the Christian missionary Rev. Thomas Baker visited a small village in the Fiji mountains. Shortly after his arrival in Nabutautau, the reverend and his Fiji escorts were executed, cooked, and eaten. Over a hundred years later, cannibalism has stopped in Fiji, but the spirits of the missionaries have not yet calmed down.
So... Whether we admit it to ourselves or not, we all have a flair for ghosts, no matter how much each of us is afraid of any kind of horror. Each of us has had moments in life when we could not resist the temptation to watch a horror movie before going to bed, and then stayed up almost all night, leaving the lights on, and diligently repeated all the prayers that we remembered. Nevertheless, places with ghosts always attract people with their mystery. Interest in otherworldly forces in many people is quite pronounced.
This article is dedicated to all those brave hearts who are just too shy to admit their love for all things haunted. We will introduce you to the twenty most terrible places inhabited by ghosts.
20Myrtle Plantation, USA
From the outside, this place looks like a nice bungalow with a peaceful environment. But that's just how it seems. If you're lucky enough to visit this plantation one day, you'll be able to say hello to Chloe, one of the slaves who had her ear cut off, for having a habit of eavesdropping on things that didn't concern her.
She is often seen wandering around the house with two little girls whose faces have no eyes, nose, or mouth.
19Cinco Saltos, Argentina
Cinco Saltos is a province in the Rio Negro in Argentina. It is famous for its witchcraft rituals, which contribute to the spread of many fascinating stories. The city of Cinco Saltos is also known as the "City of the Witches" due to the flourishing of witchcraft, which is widespread everywhere, and the Bajo Negro area is especially famous. Seeing ghosts in these places, according to the local population, is not a problem.
In 2009, the corpse of a young girl between the ages of 8 and 12, who died in the 1930s, was found there, completely intact. This fact further fuels the otherworldly reputation of the place.
18Edinburgh Castle, Scotland
A site of historical significance, Edinburgh Castle is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Scotland, mainly due to its haunted stories.

So, where can a risky and adventurous tourist who wants to encounter something supernatural go?
1. Eastern State Penitentiary
The maximum security prison in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania has long been the subject of much paranormal research. The building resembles a well-fortified fortress with towers and powerful gates, and it served as a prison for almost 140 years until the early 1970s. Today it state museum, and one of the most interesting places in the former prison - this is the solitary confinement of Al Capone himself. The ill-treatment and torture caused many prisoners to go insane and die, which is why visitors today report hearing ominous whispers, weeping, and even dark silhouettes in the rooms.
2. Tower of London
In the Tower they executed so often and so much that manifestations paranormal activity within its walls do not seem surprising at all. Most often, visitors and workers notice the appearance of the ghosts of Queen Anne Boleyn, the executed wife of King Henry VIII, the children's silhouettes of Edward V and his brother Richard, Duke of York, and the elderly Countess of Salisbury, whom the executioner managed to behead only the third time.
3. Gettysburg
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania is one of the most visited historical sites in USA. This is the site of a bloody three-day battle (1863) during the civil war, which claimed the lives of about 50 thousand people. It is believed that the battlefield and several nearby buildings, then used as temporary hospitals for the wounded, have forever remained an eternal haven for the souls of many soldiers, whose ghosts are often observed by tourists who come to these parts.
4. Pere Lachaise
The atmosphere of the Père Lachaise cemetery in Paris is unique and inimitable, its territory is not like any earthly cemetery, but rather like some special city of the dead. Ancient tombstones, statues and the absolute silence of Père Lachaise make visitors feel as if they are constantly being watched by invisible eyes.
5. Bran Castle
Bran Castle in Transylvania is a real attraction for tourists. Still, because the people still call it nothing more than Dracula's castle. There are no historical records confirming that Vlad the Impaler was his master, but for several months he was kept in this castle as a prisoner. However, imagination is a powerful thing, and Bran Castle has forever become Dracula's own fearsome fortress.
6. Liner "Queen Mary"
The transatlantic military transport liner Queen Mary is also haunted, according to numerous eyewitnesses. Today it is permanently laid up in the port of Long Beach (California) and performs a lot of functions: a museum, a restaurant, a hotel and a room for presentations, exhibitions and conventions. It even has a church and a chapel for wedding ceremonies on board. Among the paranormal activity, one can note the appearance of young man, which was crushed by door number 13 in the engine room, the sounds of splashing water from an empty pool and wet footprints and
dancing lady in white in the first class lounge.
7 Mansfield Prison
If you walk into the former prison and penal colony of Mansfield, Ohio, chances are you will feel very uncomfortable there. Many horrific and mysterious deaths have been recorded in the prison infirmary.
The chapel once housed a torture chamber, and the so-called "Hole" was a terrifying punishment cell. By the way, it was Mansfield Prison that “played the role” of Shawshank Prison in the movie The Shawshank Redemption.
8. Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle is a tourist attraction, and certainly not without its own ghosts, namely Greyfriars dog Bobby, who guarded the grave of his deceased owner, and a mysterious man in a leather apron. In addition, the sounds of bagpipes are heard here, since once a local piper was lost forever in the tunnels under the castle, and visitors also note the constant feeling that they are being watched by invisible inhabitants of the castle.
9. Parisian catacombs
They say that the Parisian catacombs are simply overpopulated with ghosts. And this is quite understandable. The catacombs serve as underground burial chambers for the vast quantities of bones taken from overcrowded city cemeteries.
From the remains, an amazing, but rather sinister ossuary (bone) was built in the form of crosses and imitation walls.
10 St. Louis Cemetery
St. Louis Cemetery in New Orleans (Louisiana) looks like a real scenery for some Hollywood horror movie. Visitors are also drawn to the grave of a local voodoo queen named Marie Laveau, who passed away in the late 19th century.
It is believed that even from underground, she continues to fulfill the wishes of those who come to her here for help - most importantly, do not forget to draw three crosses on the wall of her crypt.
Do you believe in ghosts? Not? And they believe in you :) And they invite you to visit one of the largest wooden houses in the world. Of course, this house has long been abandoned. And as usual, he has a complicated history. Welcome to the orphanage on the largest of the Princes' Islands (Adalar) - Buyukade, near Istanbul.
The history of Büyükada Rum Yetimhanesi (Greek Orphanage) began in 1899 when a French company decided to build the Prinkipo Palace hotel and casino on top of the hill.
Postcard
The building turned out to be luxurious: 6 floors, 20,000 square meters, 206 rooms, many utility rooms, more than 100 windows!
But the plans of the French did not come true - Sultan Abdul Hamid II did not issue a permit for operation. The building had to be sold. Its new owner was the wife of a Greek banker. After her death, he gave the house to the Patriarchate of Constantinople. So it became an orphanage for Greek orphans.
When the First World War began, the children were resettled, and the Turkish Kuleli military school used the house.
Then, for some time, Greek refugees lived in the house, who were sent to the Princes' Islands. Russian refugees also flocked there, seeking salvation from the Bolsheviks. The house accommodated everyone, like a giant Noah's ark.
Later, the house again became an orphanage and school for 1000 Greek orphans.
The shelter lasted until the 60s, when the building, completely built of wood, began to crumble. The house was demolished and closed.
Since then, it has been abandoned and no one has tried to restore it. Many ceilings have already collapsed, the roof is missing in some places, which only accelerates the destruction.
In 2010, the Patriarchate of Constantinople regained ownership of the house and plans to restore it.
But for 8 years, only a fence was erected around the building and guards were put up.
A family lives on the territory near the house, which ensures that no one enters here.
Dogs run around and various village animals graze. It was not possible to get inside.
From the outside you can see the deplorable state of the building.
Even its partial restoration requires huge sums of money.
On the territory there are several other auxiliary buildings made of wood.
The shelter is simply amazing in its scale. The building is somewhat reminiscent of the Titanic, and, in fact, comes from the same era of giant structures.
Inside, all the decoration is also made of wood. Photographs of the 60s, when the shelter was closed, have been preserved. Pay attention to the rich interior - originally there was supposed to be a casino here. 
On a bright, sunny day, one does not think about sad things at all, but in inclement weather it should be dreary here.
I wonder if the Greek Church will someday pay tribute to the building, which for more than half a century has been the home of thousands of people deprived of family and shelter?
Although, it is probably easier to rebuild a building than to restore an old one.
For those who want to get
