Hoia Baciu forest, sometimes also called "Transylvanian Bermuda Triangle", lies in the heart of Romania and is for sure one of the most famous and terrifying places in Romania. Many people who visited the forest experienced nausea, disorientation and other physical ailments.
Within the forest there is a circle where no plant life will grow in. This circle was studied by many scientists but none of the studies was able to explain the existence of this circle as soil tests seem to match the soil surrounding the circle. This circle is also considered to be the center of paranormal activities within the forest, such as appearances of UFOs, strange lights, bright geometric shapes, materialization and dematerialization, twisting trees in intervals of tens of seconds and others.
In 1986 people who stayed in the forest overnight took a photo of UFO which is considered to be the clearest UFO photographed in Romania and one of the best one UFO photographed ever in the world.

Overtoun Bridge is located in Milton, Scotland and is ingloriously famous for deadly leaps of dogs that are walked over the bridge. In the last 50 years about 50 dogs jumped to their deaths from the exact same spot. What makes it even stranger is that all of those leaps occurred on clear, sunny days and the "suicidal" dogs have always been long-nose breeds, such as collies, retrievers or labradors. Those dogs that survive the first leap would recuperate and then jump one more time, locals even have a name for them – "Second Timers".
Some believe that the bridge is haunted and refer a man who threw his own son off the bridge claiming he was an antichrist. And then tried to commit suicide himself. Some believe that the bridge is a "thin place" between the world of living and world of dead and as dogs are believed to be more sensitive to paranormal activities, some claim that the dogs are getting spooked by the spirits on the Overtoun Bridge. The more rational explanation would be the mink population living under the bridge. The dogs, overly excited at the smell of the minks and unable to see over the sides of the bridge, might leap over the side on impulse not realizing that they are on a bridge at all.

Island of the Dolls is an island located south of Mexico City, between the canals of Xochimico. The island is very creepy place and home to hundreds if not thousands of terrifying dolls. Their severed limbs, decapitated heads and blank eyes hang up from the trees. Mold covers some, while others are missing most of their artificial hair. Spiders and insects have taken up residence in the hollow parts of most of the dolls.
The story goes that Don Julian found a drowned girl and because he was not able to save her life he at least tried to appease her spirit and showing respect to her by hanging her doll found in the sea to the tree. No one really knows what happened but Don Julian continued in hanging the dolls for most of his life. After he died in 2001, the island became touristic attraction and tourists bring even more dolls to the island.
Visiting this place must be really creepy experience and many swear they heard the dolls whispering to them or to each other. Some of the people who were on boat reported being lured by the dolls to come down to the island.

Aokigahara Forest also known as "Suicide Forest" is located at the northwest base of Mount Fuji in Japan. It's a popular place for suicides, definitely the most popular suicide location in Japan and the second most popular in the world. In the 70s, the problem got national attention and the Japanese government began doing annual sweeps of the forest in search of bodies and in last few years the number of bodies stopped even being publicized in an attempt to downplay Aokigahara's association with suicide. Many signs like "Life is a precious thing! Please reconsider!" or "Think of your family!" can be found scattered around the forest.
The news blame more on Japan's economic downturn than on the romantic ending of Seicho Matsumoto's novel Kuroi Jukai which revitalized the so-called Suicide Forest's popularity while some believe that the large number of suicide committed in the forest have generated paranormal activity that prevents many of those who enter from escaping the forest.

Waverly Hills opened in 1926 and it was considered the most advanced tuberculosis sanatorium in America but it is estimated that hundreds died there at height of the epidemic. The cure wasn't know at those days yet and some of the treatments were as bad as the disease itself. E.g. muscles and ribs were removed from a patient's chest to allow the lungs to expand further and let in more oxygen or implanting balloons into the patients lungs to expand them.
Waverly Hills is considered to be the most haunted house in the US and many stories of resident ghosts are being told. Some would swear they had seen little girl running up and down the stairs, little boy with a leather ball, hearse dropping off coffins at the back of the building, woman with a bleeding wrist crying for help while others had experienced ghostly sounds, slamming doors, had objects thrown at them etc.
The scariest part of the building should be room 502 where a nurse hang herself because of the depression over the situation. Later on another nurse jumped out from the roof patio of the same room. As the rumors and legends go, there were many people who have jumped to their deaths from there, have seen shapes moving in the windows and have heard disembodied voices that order trespassers to "get out"...
