From demonic possession and cursed homes to battlefield apparitions and ancient pacts with the Devil, history is filled with chilling accounts of supernatural forces said to be working against humanity.

Every year, people risk their lives to enter places the world has marked off-limits, and in most cases, no one fully understands why.

Dangerous Places

Throughout civilization there are many kingdoms and mighty empires that have risen, only to one day fall. And for some of them-like the Inca that built Machu Picchu-their eventual demise remains a mystery. What can we discover from clues left behind by these once great empires?
