“Don't call it the Dutch Disney.”
Buried in the woods in the south of the Netherlands is a theme park unlike any other. Built in 1952, Efteling takes most of its inspiration from local and national myths and legends. Unlike Disney, these tales haven't been polished and sanitised so the rides themselves tell stories that may shock, scare, or inspire. Collected here are three of those tales, each one more dastardly than the next. Sit back and enjoy... if you dare.

Rudloe Manor, a former RAF base in the south of England, is one such place that comes with rumours of tunnels, UFOs, and hidden aliens.

If you've ever ridden the London Underground you may have seen a shadow flicker across your line of sight. Or felt a cool chill on the back of your neck. The London Underground - also known as the Tube - runs through the soil and bedrock beneath the city and, yes, it also cuts through graveyards, crypts, and plague pits. So it's no wonder the world's oldest subway system houses so many ghosts. Mind the Gap, and the ghosts...

And so we delve into the tale of the Highgate Cemetery Vampire.
