We’re almost at the end of our 13 Days of Sunday Scaries countdown. We have just one episode left after this one before we officially make our way out of the archives and into four brand-new Sunday Scaries for 2026!
But for today, we’re traveling to some of the darkest, strangest, and most forbidden destinations around the world.
We’ll venture into an eerily quiet forest at the base of Mount Fuji, visit an isolated island whose inhabitants have made it very clear that outsiders are not welcome, and head beneath the water to a cemetery swallowed by the sea. We’ll also visit an island off the coast of Brazil where thousands of venomous snakes have earned it a spot firmly off-limits to tourists, before ending in Mexico, where hundreds of decaying dolls hang from the trees.
Some of these places are dangerous, some are surrounded by dark histories and legends, and others are simply places we’re probably better off appreciating from a distance.
