Human beings in strange shapes, and sheep disappear upon approaching them .. A list of unknown frightening places around the world.

In every country in this world there are frightening places behind many stories and novels that talk about ghosts, curses and mysterious events that take place in abandoned homes.

From Island of Bones to Cave of Weird Creatures, here's a list of real scary places most of which are unknown to people, according to Listvers.

Dedman Island, England

Little Dedman Island is located at the mouth of the Midway River in Kent, southeast of London, and is one of the most frightening places in the world, so authorities forbid people to go to it.

This island is full of human remains, as you can see the bones and teeth between the rocky outcrops, sand and shells on the island, and do not be surprised if you see a skull without eyes staring at you among the rocks.

In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, England had a real problem because of the prisons that were full and there was no place for other prisoners, so the idea of ​​“imprisoning a ship” arose.

The British built large ships in which prisoners were shipped to other uninhabited places and left there. It is believed that many of these ships crashed on Dedman Island, making them filled with the bones of these men and boys.

While another version tells that these remains belong to French prisoners who were captured during the Napoleonic Wars, and were sent to Australia and New Zealand to be executed there, and then returned and buried in wooden coffins on Dedman Island.

According to the Mirror, the rise in sea levels has led to the emergence and erosion of wooden coffins and the scattering of remains across the island.

Pearl Airport, Grenada

Cemeteries are frightening in nature, but this "cemetery" does not harbor crumbled bodies underground, but rather is a graveyard for Russian and Cuban planes in the Soviet era.

Pearl Airport was the first airport in Grenada and it opened in 1943 before the Allied forces quickly took over as a military air base during World War II.

By 1979 a Marxist-Leninist party took over the government of Grenada called the "New Jewel Movement".

Over the next few years, Grenada looked like many communist countries - rife with corruption, coups and extrajudicial killings that drove the United States to invade it.

During the American occupation of Grenada in the early 1980s, the airport was seized by the 8th Marine Regiment and all aircraft were destroyed and used as their base of operations.

Tropy King theme park, New Zealand

Housed in this place is a Historic House, Garden, Park and Shrine, considered a heritage property as the home of Sir Frederick Tropy King who was one of the founders of the Blanket Child Care Society.

Among the things in the reserve is The Seacliff Lunatic Asylum Psychiatric Hospital, which is considered one of the most frightening places around the world.

The hospital was built in the late 19th century and is famous for being the largest building in the country and also for its eerie architecture riddled with faults that led to a partial collapse of the hospital.

In 1942, a fire broke out in the fifth ward, which destroyed a large part of the hospital, as well as the death of all psychiatric patients in it - except for two patients - and the reason was that nurses locked patients in their rooms at the moment of the outbreak of the fire.

He claims that after the outbreak of the fire, no one was able to enter the hospital again, as it had become haunted by the souls of patients who were burned in it, and that anyone standing in front of him was feeling sad.

Devilis Cave in Greece

On Mount Bentley, north of Athens, is the Devilis Cave - or as it is also called the Bendali Cave - which consists of a network of tunnels that extend under the mountain, and one of these tunnels leads to a water pool.

The cave was once a center of worship of the god Pan, the god of pasture and wild hunting for the Greeks, the upper half of which is human and the lower half is like a goat. Later, the Orthodox Christians used the cave as a hermit and founded a small church dedicated to both Saint Spiridon and Saint Nicholas.

Over the centuries, many frightening and strange stories have circulated around this cave, as the locals talk about strange phenomena that occurred such as the appearance of ghosts, frightening lights and strange shapes of people with clouds appearing and disappearing suddenly.

There were also reports of strange sheep-like creatures disappearing when approached.

Not only that, but one of the photographers interested in learning the secrets of the cave reported that the cameras stop working when placed inside it.

In 1980 the Greek government closed the cave to visitors in order to start work on expanding the tunnels beneath the cave using explosives and heavy equipment, but these works soon stopped as the government left much of its equipment inside.

As for the last narration, it says that the cave is a place where satanic rituals are held, as animal sacrifices were found inside it.

Koldara village in India

In the outskirts of the Indian city of Jaisalmer are the ruins of the abandoned village of Kuldara, whose immigration status is still a secret that defies all scholars and historians.

In the nineteenth century, this village was very populated, but suddenly its residents decided to leave it.

Myths say that when the residents of the village emigrated, no one saw them leaving it, which increases the likelihood of their disappearance rather than their migration, and the reasons for the sudden exodus were not known.

Since then until now no one has been able to settle in this place.

One of the many stories that explain how the thousands who lived in this village disappeared is that an immoral man named Salim Singh wanted one of the village girls and he sent his gang to take her, but the villagers expelled them.

The next day, when Singh and his gang returned again, they found that all of the residents had abandoned the city.

It is also said that before their emigration, residents cursed their village, causing supernatural injuries to everyone who tried to live there.

Pons Island, Sierra Leone

It is an island in the Sierra Leone River located in Freetown Harbor, about 32 km from the country's capital, and this island includes a castle built by the British Slave Trade Company in 1670.

Through this fortress, tens of thousands of Africans were shipped to colonies in North America from South Carolina and Georgia to be forced into slavery.

Although the island is small, its strategic location at the shipping limits for ocean-going ships in Africa's largest natural port made it an ideal base for European slave traders.

The powerful "slave castle" on the island survived many raids by Portuguese raiders and pirates and the Luso Creole during the eighteenth century, but it could not survive the abolition of slavery, as it was done by 1840.

The castle and its antiquities became a great witness to many of the torture that took place during the transfer of slaves.

Old Franklin Park Zoo in America

There is no doubt that seeing long, deserted cages that once housed bears is painful as if you see the same animals trapped inside the cages today.

The park was built in 1912 and was supposed to be an open-plan zoo designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, but when it opened, people were surprised that they were narrow steel cages in which predators, especially bears, were kept, and these cages are banned today.

Fortunately animals are treated much better nowadays in many parts of the world unlike this abandoned zoo in Boston which serves as a sad reminder of how humans deal with animals.

Rue de la Roquette in France

At first glance, Rue de la Roquette will seem to you just a normal street in the French capital Paris, where cars and pedestrians naturally drive over it every day, but this is not the case.

Do you see the signs on the crosswalk? It is said to occupy the space of the long-vanished Dela Rocket prison over which support stones were installed for the use of the prison guillotine to decapitate 69 people from 1851 until the prison's closure in 1899.
