43 Creepiest Locations Around The World To Be Actually Used In Film

37. Fort de la Chartreuse, Belgium – A Fortress of Forgotten Souls

This massive, overgrown fortress in Liège has all the makings of a haunted labyrinth. Used as a military outpost and prison during both World Wars, Fort de la Chartreuse has a long history of suffering and confinement. Today, its moss-covered corridors, graffiti-laced walls, and collapsing staircases give it a post-apocalyptic feel. It was a key location for the horror short The Forgotten Battalion (2015), and rumors persist of ghosts wandering the artillery tunnels. Visitors report feelings of extreme anxiety, sudden temperature drops, and footsteps echoing from long-abandoned chambers. It’s a setting that doesn’t need special effects—the atmosphere alone delivers pure cinematic dread.
