I did visit the Gunkanjima a. Hashima which is an unpopulated prison Island in Japan and I love the mysteriousness of it. Some really creepy islands here. I have been to some famous ones but not scary ones. The doll one freaks me out the most. Islands are beautiful for the most part but if you hop onto a mysterious one it adds a sense of spookiness in some regards.

Other than a plane or boat ride, you are stuck there. I got this feeling a little bit on Vanua Levu Fiji. Loved the place to bits but I felt isolated being in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean, so far away from mainland civilization.

Cool post! Hey Ryan, thanks for stopping by and your insight! Absolutely, I get what you mean, I think there is even a word for that feeling that you describe, island koller — people need to leave for the mainland every now and then. But if you think about it, it is exactly the same thing if you live in a city, right!?

He had been collecting these terrible dolls for 50 years until he also drowned. This island seems to be the most isolated spot on the Earth. There is no other land 3,, square miles around it which is a little less than the area of Europe. Despite this, there is an interesting story connected with this island.

It was opened in and forgotten for almost 60 years. After this period, an expedition came to the island and found a strange thing: there was an abandoned ship lying in coastal waters. No serious malfunctions and no name nor other identification marks were found on the ship.

There were paddles lying 10 meters away from the vessel. Of course, it was thought that the ship had wrecked, but no dead bodies and no shelters were found near the ship. Besides that, 2 nuclear explosions took place on the island in for which no country took responsibility.

Nowadays this island is famous only for the enormous amount of debris near its shores. However, it has a more beautiful and mysterious side. One of the biggest mysteries of the island is a cave with a spring where human skeletons were found. Also, on the surrounding rocks, there were found some petroglyphs as well as earth furnaces, stone tools, and other things.

Nobody knows where these people came from and what culture they represented. According to the archaeological data, the island was inhabited between the 12th to the 15th centuries.

The fact that there was an extremely small amount of fresh water on the island and that the skeletons in the caves were stacked incredibly neatly makes the mystery even stranger. The history of this island is comparable to the history of its Venetian twin.

At the end of the 19th century, a hospital specializing in curing smallpox and quarantining the sick was opened. Over a thousand people died in this accident.

Forty years later, another drug rehabilitation hospital was opened on the island. It was infamous for its corrupted and cruel personnel. Moreover, the number of patients that started using drugs drastically increased after coming to this hospital, which is why it was closed in As per current available information, the island is abandoned, the hospital is destroyed, and its territory is overgrown with forest.
