Poveglia Island
Present Day
Located near Venice, Poveglia Island is a scenic looking island that you would never suspect to be the home of some of the most horrific and spooky occurrences of all of Italian history. Originally a place for Black Plague victims to be sent to die, the island has only increased in infamy after the installation, and eventual shutdown, of a mental hospital. The soil on the island is incredibly fertile due to the ash being heavily comprised of decayed human flesh and if that wasn’t scary enough…
human bones constantly wash ashore
