Uncover fascinating paranormal activity on this chilling, nerve-wracking global tour of over 50 paranormal locations, with a brilliant foreword from award-winning writer, Danny Robins.

Set out on a uniquely dark armchair journey and witness the shocking supernatural events, ghosts, and unexplained phenomena that have captivated humankind for as long as we have told stories to each other, looked to the skies, and wondered whether we really are alone...

The paranormal places include:

  • The Chase Vault, a 200-year-old crypt in Barbados with moving coffins.
  • Charleville Castle, the haunted castle in Ireland used by secret societies.
  • The witch market (El Mercado De Las Brujas) in La Paz, Bolivia.
  • Gunnuhver Mud Pool in Iceland, infected by the spirit of a maddened criminal.
  • Turkmenistan's Door to Hell, an infernal crater still blazing after half a century.

Legends abound about spirits that rise from the dead, places where the crops don't grow, or sites where strange lights are seen at night. Explore glaciers that bleed, ghost towns, crumbling castles, disused (and active) cemeteries, eerie forests, and freak nature patterns.

This cursed collection covers these sites in all their mysterious glory, and recounts what happened, what continues to happen, and what may explain these phenomena. Hauntings, aliens, and all manner of paranormal activity are examined, in manmade as well as natural surroundings.

Atlas of Paranormal Places is a journey you may not want to undertake when you are alone...
