It’s hard to imagine somewhere scarier than a wild, dense, and dark forest. It’s no surprise that a number of forests around the world are purported to be haunted. From the Pine Barrens in New Jersey to the Black Forest in Germany, to the Suicide Forest in Japan, almost every country with a large forest has tales and legends of supernatural occurrences within.
Key Takeaways:
- Thanks to fairy tales and legends of the Blair Witch variety, a dense, dark forest can elicit feelings of dread.
- Some people also claim that if you drive to Hangman’s Hill and park in neutral, your car will slowly be pulled uphill.
- The heavily forested Pine Barrens spans over one million acres and seven counties in New Jersey.
“And while most spooky moments can be chalked up to our campfire imaginations running wild, some places around the world carry legitimately terrifying histories that are much harder to brush off with a nervous laugh.”
