          8 of the World’s Creepiest Places

          by Robin Esrock


          Fresh and rotten in time for Halloween, here’s a gallery of some unforgettable places that blasted chills down my spine.   Haunted, sinister, evil or just plain weird, for those that dream about travelling the world, welcome to your nightmare.

          The Bone Church of Kutna Hora, Czech Republic

          Some time in the 13th century, a monk brought sand from Jerusalem to this small ossuary in central Europe. Suddenly everyone wanted to be buried there, but soon enough, space ran out. The monks collected and stored the bones. Several hundred years later, a Czech woodcarver decided he’d get creative with the surplus skeletons. Using the bones of some 40,000 people, he created wall art, columns, even a chandelier made with every bone in the human body. Today you can visit this small bizarre church, marvel at its morbid creativity, and literally stare death in the face. (credit: GettyImages)
