Never believe all those third-party stories, they were made up to create unnecessary fear
in the minds of unsuspecting people.
Ghosts don't exist let alone build houses.

i think abandonment wasn't due to any structural defect but due to the world recession of that year.

Thanks. I just took the words literally the moment I saw collapse

If it's Nigeria people will still live there o. They will not mind building collapse. People live in wooden houses in the creeks so this one will be like living in a GRA.

Building collapse in this context is the fall in value of sales of homes, not stuctural collapse bro grin

I believe this shall happen in Abuja someday

Pripyat, Ukraine.



The city of Pripyat was established in Ukraine, close to the border of Belarus on Feb. 4th 1970 as a Soviet nuclear city.

It was a residential to the workers who worked in the nearby Chernobyl nuclear power plant.

But in 1986, the nuclear power plant faced a disaster, more popularly known as the Chernobyl Disaster of 1986, which led to the evacuation of the entire city.

Priypat, thus, remains a radioactive ghost city haunted by the nightmares of that dreadful night.

Unoccupied Irish Homes, Ireland.


At first glance, this looks like a nice and quiet neighborhood that any family would love to live in.

When you look a bit closer, you’ll see that these houses are not occupied, nor have they ever been.

Ireland has lots of neighborhoods that were built up, but after the housing collapse in 2008, these homes were never sold.

Although no one has ever lived here, it is creepy to walk these empty streets.

See houses dey waste meanwhile guys dey share passage, toilets and bathrooms for face-me-I-face-you for 9ja. Chai!

Lol, just imagine this in Nigeria and tell me if amusement park or shop rite park in enugu would be in business. If a Nigerian goes there, we can make tangible the space and resources.





May be it didn't met the people's taste, I still can't believe that a park of such design could be abandoned in a densely populated country like Japan angry[/quote]

Quite unfortunate
In a city where majority are poorly housed
Anyway, the owners has nothing to lose. They're built with stolen money

A Graveyard of Abandoned Airliners at Benin City Airport, Nigeria.




These photographs, captured at Benin City Airport in 2005 and 2010 respectively, are a good example of those scenes.

In past decades, Nigeria’s airports have become the final resting places for passenger aircraft whose operators have gone out of business for a variety of reasons, or simply put them out to pasture.

These images reveal the former Okada Air fleet of Boeing 727s and BAC-One Eleven 300s.

In one image, 17 of the 18 BAC-111s acquired by the Benin City-based airline can be seen rotting away in a neglected corner of the commercial airport.

With them is a larger, US-built 727, lingering on in an equally poor state of repair.

Isla de las Munecas, Mexico City, Mexico


This is definitely one of the creepiest and eeriest abandoned places.

The story is said that the former caretaker of the area found a young dead girl, and to appease her spirit, he began placing dolls in the trees, on the fences, and anywhere else.

What is even more eerie is that the caretaker is said to have been found dead in the same spot he found the girl.

Why is it that, old or abandon dolls always look scary like choki in the childs play movie
