The Screaming Tunnel - Niagara FallsThere are many monuments and other places all over the world which are famous for ghost stories and incidents surrounding them, and are known to be haunted. The Screaming Tunnel of the Niagara Falls also happens to be one of them. The name itself is such that one can realise the kind of “screams” attached with this location!

This tunnel is actually a very small one, created completely out of limestone. The location of the tunnel is such that it stands where the Grand Trunk Railway Lines were once located. Initially, many thought that this was too a railway tunnel, especially considering its proximity to the railways lines, which were located on the northwest corner of the Niagara Falls.

Tohoku, Akita prefecture - JapanAkita is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan, and is known to be one of the most beautiful prefectures too. It is located somewhere in the Tohoku region of Japan. Till the year 600, Akita was known to be quite separated and away from the workings of main Japan. There was not much involvement of Akita in the commerce, politics, trade etc. of the country. It mainly comprised of certain specific nomadic tribes, and thus, was very limited in its scope and function. It was like a small different world in itself.
