Scary Places Around The World Where You Shouldn't Travel Alone

Pyramiden, Arctic Circle

Pyramiden is an old Soviet mining settlement in the Arctic Circle. Technically, it’s located on the archipelago of Svalbard in Norway. It was first owned by Sweden until they sold it to the Soviets in 1927, who mined it for 70 years. When the announcement came that the mining colony would be shut down, people departed so quickly that today it looks like they just disappeared. Because of the extreme cold, the ghost town will be preserved in time for at least 500 years.
