Check out this marvelous Top 25 Dark Tourist Spots infographic from Baltic Travel Company. This is one of the neatest dark tourism lists/infographics I’ve seen yet. There’s a few places on here I haven’t seen on previous lists. (Such as numbers 2, 9, 17 and 18.)
With a bit o’luck, in a few months I’ll visit #19 on the list. Have you been to any of these? Which ones would you like to visit?
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
Auschwitz is one of my dream destinations. I hope I can go there soon.
