My Bucket List By: Sara Ann Robinson
Island of the Dolls • It is said that a girl was found drowned in mysterious circumstances many years ago on this island and that the dolls are possessed by her spirit. • Local legend says that the dolls moved their heads and arms and even opened their eyes. • Some witnesses claim that they heard the dolls whispering to each other, while others who were on a boat near the island said that the dolls lured them to come down to the island. • It is dedicated to the loss of a poor girl who met her fate too soon under strange circumstances.
Island of the Dolls • The Island of the Dolls was first founded 50 years ago, which is when the dolls were first hung on trees. • Don Julian Santana Barrera, the caretaker of the island, drowned in the same place that the other mysterious girl did.
Paris, France • The history of Paris can be traced back to a Gallic tribe known as the Parisii. • Paris further developed into a center of art, medicine, science, fashion, tourism, high culture and finance, becoming one of the world’s most influential global cities. • Paris is the capital of France. • The main reason why people travel to Paris is to see the Eiffel Tower.
The Aokigahara Suicide Forest • Each year the authorities remove over 100 bodies which are found hanging at the country’s suicide hotspot, but others can lie there undiscovered for several years. • The Suicide Forest is in Japan. • If you ever visit Suicide Forest, you may find clothing, shoes, skeletons, empty pill bottles, or diaries laying all over the ground. • Japan has more than 30,00o suicides per year, one of the highest rates among the industrialized nations.
Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum • The Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum was once a high school but was taken over and turned into a prison. • This place soon turned into one of the largest center of detention and torture in Cambodia. • People that were tortured were always photographed, before and sometimes after being tortured.
Athens Lunatic Asylum • The Athens Lunatic Asylum was founded in 1868 in Ohio. • The Ridges, formally called the Athens Lunatic Asylum, was a mental hospital operated in Athens, Ohio from 1874 until 1993. • This is Ohio’s most creepiest and insane asylum, which has a permanent “corpse” stain.
