31 Haunted Hotspots and Urban Legends for the Brave Traveler
18. The Ruins of Dhanushkodi – India
Once a bustling town in Tamil Nadu, India, Dhanushkodi was completely wiped out by a catastrophic cyclone in 1964. Now, its remains are an eerie ghost town where the wind howls through abandoned buildings and the sea crashes against deserted shores. Locals believe that spirits of those lost in the storm still linger, and travelers have reported ghostly figures walking along the beach at night—only to disappear into thin air when approached. Some say the town itself is cursed, forever doomed to remain uninhabited.
