#1 – Island of the Dolls, Mexico
via shannonmarierobinson.com complain
The Island of the Dolls, situated on Lake Teshuilo in Xochimilco near Mexico City, is considered the creepiest Mexico's tourist attraction. The origins of island lie in tragedy. There is talk that the island's only inhabitant, Don Julian Santana, found a body of a drowned girl in the canal. Haunted by her spirit, he began to get dolls for her to play with. Later on, Santana´s body was found in the canal on the very same spot where the little girl had drowned. Nowadays, hundreds of spine-tingling dolls with severed limbs and decapitated heads scare tourists.
