Welcome to a tour of the most spine-chiling places from around the world. Prepare for the frightful as this book looks past rusty iron gates and through creaking old doors.

Explore the dim halls of an abandoned insane asylum where thousands met slow downward spirals or death row at Alcatraz where voices still linger. Pitch a tent in a macabre suicide forest or watch your back in a Southern plantation where a triple-murderess won't stay dead. Descend into catacombs filled with lifelike mummies or stroll through a cemetery that hosts eerie rituals. And be sure to visit the real-life locations of your favorite horror movies and even browse the nastiest gift shops you've ever seen. Everyone with a taste for the spooky needs a copy of this book– it’s a scream!

It seems peculiar that hospitals—places where people’s lives are saved—can be downright creepy once they’re abandoned. Leftover medical instruments, stained walls, and mysterious sounds all contribute to the unsettling feeling one gets once inside. Luckily, readers won’t have to travel to deserted hospitals around the world. They can tour them in the pages of this hair-raising volume. They’ll visit the Taunton State Hospital in Massachusetts, Old Changi Hospital in Singapore, and others. Plenty of history is mixed in with the odd anecdotes connected with each, and a chilling design and images add to the eerie ambience.

Just outside of Tokyo lies Aokigahara, a vast forest and one of the most beautiful wilderness areas in Japan...and also the most infamous spot to commit suicide in the world. Legend has it that the spirits of those many suicides are still roaming, haunting deep in the ancient woods. When bad weather prevents a group of friends from climbing neighboring Mt. Fuji, they decide to spend the night camping in Aokigahara. But they get more than they bargained for when one of them is found hanged in the morning-and they realize there might be some truth to the legends after all.

Kids will be fascinated by the nonfiction histories that inspired these tales of paranormal activity. Whether or not the ghosts and their hauntings are real is left for the reader to decide.
