The scariest places in Russia. An unforgettable journey through lost places and anomalous zones in Russia Anomalous villages

Abnormal places are the holy of holies of all the unknown and mysterious. Hundreds of people visit them at their own peril and risk, in order to see firsthand what refutes science and contradicts common sense. Most visitors are drawn here by the desire to touch the unknown, to change their lives for the better. But there are also those who seriously study mysterious phenomena: scientists, magicians and psychics.

Unfortunately, not all monuments of antiquity have survived, from many there are only traces and reminders. But even the ruins and debris are saturated with such a powerful force that they attract people from all over the world. Such places are called places of power. It is dangerous for an ordinary person to appear in areas with negative energy. Energy here is indomitable and destructive, it will destroy anyone who had the imprudence to come into contact with it.

Map of anomalous zones of Russia

The map of Russia is full of places that bear self-explanatory names: the damned, devilish, secret, forgotten, and pernicious. Rumor and legends reliably keep these names, because this is how our ancestors designated danger. On the Devil's Glade, you can disappear without a trace, and the Bad Swamp will drag a gaping traveler to the bottom.

There are many anomalous zones in Russia

Until now, it has not been studied for what reasons anomalous zones arise. It is only known that there is nothing permanent in them. Even time and space change their usual course, and some zones can move travelers to another reality and show alien worlds.

The mysterious city of Arkaim

Arkaim is a place of power that is safe for humans. Therefore, experts recommend starting the study of anomalous zones in Russia from the ancient city of the Slavs and Aryans. It is believed that Arkaim is the birthplace of Zarathustra and the cradle of civilization, keeping the secrets of the ancestors. They are reliably hidden from prying eyes, and not everyone can figure them out. This is a city of the times of the Rig Veda (the oldest of the Vedas) and the Avesta, the sacred texts of the Zoroastrians.

Arkaim in the XX century BC NS.

Mages claim that tourists come here when they feel the call. Intuition calls them. They want to touch the energy of the ruins, cleansing from negativity. Arkaim is called the City of the Sun because of the strongest energy flows passing here. Deep under Arkaim there is a break in the earth's crust. The power of the ancient city is able to awaken the dormant memory of ancestors. Those who often visit here say that after trips to Arkaim:

• health is strengthened;
• vitality improves;
• positive changes begin to take place in life.

Multiple trips to Arkaim give spiritual balance and tranquility, awaken a craving for creativity and self-expression.

The remains of the legendary city are located in the Chelyabinsk region and access to them is open to visitors. Now Arkaim is an archaeological site, an open-air monument of antiquity. People come here in groups from all over the country or singly. A hotel is open for tourists, but you can spend the night in a tent near the place of power.

In ancient times, Arkaim was a large, well-defended city. It was built in the shape of a circle. From a bird's eye view, the remains of the fortifications look like airstrips for aircraft. Legends confirm theories that the devices and mechanisms of a lost civilization could be located here. There are theories that the city was a temple or even an observatory. The inhabitants of Arkaim were familiar with pottery and metallurgical production. Science confirms that the city was destroyed by fire, but who set Arkaim on fire is unknown. Whether these were enemies or the inhabitants themselves were guilty of the fire - it still remains a mystery. Like many other things hidden in the ruins of this mysterious city.

The Mystery of the Lakes of Death (The Horror of the Ancient Temple)

The depths of water, hidden from view, have always terrified our ancestors. It is not known what ancient animals lurked in the murky waters of lakes and reservoirs, what forces alien to man were hidden by the thick of dark water.

But not always the lakes, which received such names long ago as Dead, Empty or even Devil's, have been so from time immemorial. Many have become anomalous due to human destructive activities.

Drowned lake

Not far from Pereslavl-Zalessky there is a lake in which tourists often drown. People ignore the warning shields installed on the shore and enter the water. Nobody can answer the question, where do the bodies of the drowned go?

Bodies disappeared without a trace into the lake

Local residents do not swim in the lake, but they often catch fish in it. Despite the fact that the local sanitary and epidemiological station checked the water many times and found nothing dangerous in it, sometimes fishermen come across fish that are difficult to classify as already known species. Either these are species unknown to science, or mutants, of which there are also a great many: one-eyed, with paws or hair instead of scales.

Old-timers once saw how one of the newcomers swam to the middle of the lake and, screaming, went under the water, as if he had been dragged to the bottom. Bubbles of air rose to the surface, and together with them an oil slick rose, which immediately began to spread over the water surface of the entire lake. At night, at the place where the person died, a bright wide circle about 5 meters in diameter appeared.

Two old men swam in a boat to the circle, and immediately the boat began to exude a greenish flicker. Following this, a fountain hit the sky from the circle on the water, covering the brave souls who decided to get out of there as soon as possible.

In local hospitals, there are records of several cases of lesions of a strange skin disease. All sick people had one thing in common: swimming in the lake. Their hair fell out all over their bodies, and their skin became covered with colorless horny plates, similar to scales. On the head, the plates grew together into horn-like processes, which then began to crack and peel off, and subsequently fell off altogether.

Scientists were seriously interested in the lake and analyzed the water, and also invited a diving service to study the bottom. During the inspection, cracks were found in the soil of artificial origin, which with force were drawn into large masses of water. Where the water got through the cracks, it was not possible to determine. But here's what's interesting: the water level in the lake always remains unchanged, even though the water is rapidly leaving the lake through cracks at the bottom.

Flooded temple

In the vicinity of the Leningrad region, not far from Sosnovy Bor, there are terrible legends about the origin of Lake Kalischenskoye. Locals also call it Kaplischenskoye and diligently avoid the terrible place.

Rumor has preserved legends, which say that earlier on the site of the lake there was an old Russian temple, a place where the ancient Slavs brought cruel sacrifices to the gods. Around the lake there is a dense forest full of birds and animals. But everyone who visited the lake paid attention to the eerie silence that enveloped the forest around Lake Kalishchenskoye. There are no fish in the lake.

Few of the visitors stayed overnight on the shore of the lake. After a few hours spent here, people began to get nervous, they were overcome by an inexplicable fear, and they left in a hurry. It is difficult to say what was to blame: the oppressive silence of a silent forest, the realization that a huge lake before our eyes was devoid of life, or something inexplicable prompted from the depths of the reservoir that it was dangerous for the psyche to stay here. But the fact remains: the lake is notorious.

Sometimes in the forest around the lake, locals find painstakingly dug holes, which are a perfect square, a meter by a meter wide. The mysteriousness of the lake is added by the inexplicable night glow above the water, which can be seen from afar on clear and calm nights.

Fiery Rock of Theater Square

The capital of Russia, Moscow, did not avoid the appearance of an anomalous zone practically in the very heart of the city, not far from the Kremlin. The construction of the Bolshoi Theater began in the 18th century. With the permission of Empress Catherine II, the first theater building was built on Petrovka, which burned down even before the opening. Soon after this event, Prince Urusov, to whom she entrusted the construction, lost interest in him and transferred the rights to the construction to his companion, Michael Medox.

Under the leadership of an Englishman, the first theater building appeared in Moscow. It was low, three stories high, made of bricks and with a wooden roof. A quarter of a century later, the building burned down.

A new theater building was erected on Arbat (future Teatralnaya) square. But he was overtaken by an evil fate. The building burned down during a grand fire in 1812.

After 9 years, the building began to rebuild, and in the middle of the 19th century it burned down again. It was found that the fire that destroyed the theater began in a carpentry workshop. Many people died in the fire. Only stone walls and a colonnade at the entrance remained of the building. After 3 years, the theater was rebuilt.

If we take a closer look at all the cases of fires that befell the Bolshoi Theater, we can draw attention to one significant detail: all fires always started in the basement of the building.

After the next fire of the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow, rumors spread about a curse gravitating over Teatralnaya Square. And there was a reason for these rumors: the legend of Nikita Dvinyatin and his tragically dead family.

Man in black

This happened in the 17th century, when the city was engulfed in a plague epidemic. Many families locked themselves in their homes and did not allow anyone to enter, fearing a painful death in the air. The Dvinyatin family did the same, but despite this, all family members fell seriously ill and were dying when a mysterious guest knocked on the door, introducing himself as a doctor.

He promised a speedy recovery to the doomed people, said that he had brought with him a wonderful medicine that would save them. Despair took possession of Nikita Dvinyatin, the head of this family, and he opened the door and let the stranger in. No matter how much Nikita tried to see the stranger, he failed. The guest was dressed in black. A dark cloak hid his figure, and a hood was pulled low over his face.

The whole family, except for the son named after his father Nikita, drank the medicine and died immediately. The medicine was poison, the stranger poisoned them. After making sure that the witnesses were dead, he began to rob their home.

Nikita hid from him and secretly got out of the house. The fear of impending death did not frighten him as much as the unknown man in black. When he reached the neighbors, he called them for help. Together they returned and overtook the stranger when he was leaving the Dvinyatins' house with the loot. Fierce people caught him and gave him a terrible medicine that killed Nikita's family.

The corpse of the uninvited guest was thrown into the swamp, where, hundreds of years later, Teatralnaya Square will be. Witnesses to the fires said that shortly before the flames devoured the building, the ghost of an unknown person, dressed in an old-fashioned dark cloak with a hood, was seen in the basements of the theater.

Wanderer and three stations

The area of ​​three stations in Moscow has long enjoyed a bad reputation. Homeless people, beggars and murderers flock here from all over the city and the country. It is possible that they are attracted by the negative energy that reigns here.

In the XIV century, there were swamps on the site of the square, among which there was a man's monastery. Tradition says that one rainy night a traveler knocked at the gate of the monastery, accidentally wandering into the swamps. He asked the monks to shelter him and save him from a terrible thunderstorm. But the monks refused him for an unknown reason. Then the wanderer cursed the monastery with a terrible oath, wishing him to sink into the ground. The strong walls of the monastery shook, and soon the monastery began to collapse. The attempts of the monks to restore their homes were in vain, and soon they left this place.

The people feared the ruins, knowing that a curse gravitates over them. For three centuries there was a wasteland here, until Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich ordered the construction of a traveling palace on this place. A tower-watchtower was also built here, which gave the name to the place: Kalanchevskoe field.

At the end of the 17th century, in the place where the Leningradsky and Yaroslavsky railway stations are now located, the building of an artillery warehouse stood. It was destroyed by a fire that began in 1812 after the explosion of the shells stored there.

In the 18th century, a wooden theater was built here, which was repeatedly burned to the ground.

A century later, it was decided to drain the swamps, and the construction of the Nikolaevsky railway station (in the future - Leningradsky) began. Workers died at a construction site under unclear circumstances. The erected buildings suddenly collapsed, as if they were being destroyed by an unknown force, but the construction was nevertheless completed.

In the 30s of the XX century, during the construction of the subway, under the square of three stations, workers found the remains of ancient buildings. The construction was stopped, archaeologists were invited to the place of the find, but a downpour prevented the study of the finds, which were more than 500 years old. It lasted several days and flooded the mine. As a result of the flood, the frame of the tunnel began to collapse, and only thanks to the selfless efforts of the Komsomol metro builders was it possible to prevent the tragedy. In their honor, the station was named "Komsomolskaya".

Station "Komsomolskaya" before the flood

They say that sometimes an old man dressed in rags appears in front of the Kazan railway station. He walks, bent low to the ground, and leans on a long stick. At the very entrance, he falls to his knees and prays for a long time, now and then furiously crossing himself. And then it disappears. It is believed that this is the wanderer who once cursed the monastery. He never found peace and is now trying to remove sin from his soul, repenting and reading prayers.

The curse of the abbess (Cathedral of Christ the Savior)

On the site of the future Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the Alekseevsky nunnery was previously located. By decree of the tsar, it was decided to move the monastery to Krasnoe Selo, and build a temple in its place.

Alekseevsky monastery in the 19th century

According to historians, the abbess, who was the abbess of the monastery, opposed the order of the king and ordered the nuns to chain themselves to an oak tree that grew in the courtyard of the monastery. She was forcibly taken out of the gate and on the move, turning around, she cursed this place, predicting that "not a single building will stand here."

Construction lasted 44 years from 1839 to 1883. In 1931 it was decided to blow up the temple and build the notorious Palace of the Soviets in its place. For a year and a half, the rubble of the temple was dismantled, after which construction began, but the Second World War prevented it.

In 1960, the “Moscow” swimming pool was opened on the site of the temple. It was only in the mid-90s that a decision was made to restore the temple. In 1999, the opening and consecration took place.

The Cathedral of Christ the Savior is the main cathedral of the country, where major divine services are held. Thousands of believers visit them. But, despite this, the attitude towards the church among Russians is ambivalent. Many will agree that there is an unfavorable aura in the temple. It is believed that he is only a copy, a remake without an old history.

Moscow region: ghosts and UFOs

Residents of the village of Chapel near Moscow are sure that they live in the epicenter of an abnormal field. Psychics who have been there claim that the village is surrounded by evil spirits, which from time to time seek contact with people.

Among the anomalous zones of the Moscow region, the Chapel is considered the richest in events. It was named so because of the abandoned chapel that stands on the central square of the village. Every year hundreds of expeditions come here from different cities of Russia and even from other countries.

At any time of the day, you can hear eerie sounds coming from the village cemetery. The local population knows that looking for the source of sounds is dangerous: the ghosts that live there can drag a person away or scare him to death.

The village is popular among domestic ufologists. According to eyewitnesses, guests from other worlds often come here, and a few years ago their activities led to a violent explosion in the forest near the Chapel. The source and causes of the explosion were never identified.

Abandoned chapel in the center of the village

The result of scientific observations was the conclusion that the village is located in an unfavorable place for living, among geodetic and geological phenomena. Every day, locals and visitors witness inexplicable phenomena:

• flashes in the sky;
• falling trees;
• strange sounds;
• jumping shadows.

All these are signs of a geopathogenic zone that has captured the village of Chapel. It spreads far beyond the village. It is considered dangerous to enter the forest because of the wood deer living in the thicket. They are wary of a person and do not come close to human habitation, but if a person himself wanders into them, then the goblin as a punishment can bring a deception on the traveler. A person who has fallen under the influence of the spell cannot find his way back and begins to wander in a circle, every now and then getting lost on a simple route. It becomes possible to find a way home only if the darkness subsides, but this entirely depends on the benevolence of evil spirits.

Seraphim stones

Hundreds of tourists are gathered every day. This is the most famous anomalous zone in the Nizhny Novgorod region. It is believed that Seraphim of Sarov lived here, not far from the destroyed monastery. His miraculous energy is so strong that it is still preserved in those places where he visited.

There are two stones associated with the name of the saint: Bear and Small. The bear emerges from the ground closer to the monastery. According to legend, Seraphim prayed while standing on this stone. After the death of the recluse, his pet, a forest bear, came to the stone and died of longing for its owner. Bears are often seen here. In the middle of the 20th century, a bear came out of the forest to meet a group of pilgrims and, bypassing the stone, returned to the forest. From time to time she returned to make a circle around the shrine. Eyewitnesses say that the last time she was not alone, but with a bear cub.

A small stone is a group of stones surrounded by a fence. The largest of them has marks that look like the marks of hands and knees. Not far from them on the ground lies a stone called Verigi. According to legend, this stone was constantly worn by Seraphim of Sarov in his back bag.

The footprints of the saint are visible on the stone

All stones are cold even in hot summer weather. And some of them grow over the years. Observers claim that the Bear has doubled in size over the years.

A source of healing water gushes out of the ground next to the stones. People come here to touch the shrines and soak up positive energy. Visiting stones will strengthen spirituality and give peace.

Cave Silicates

In the village of Devyatskoye near Moscow, not far from the Silikatnaya station, in one of the quarries, raw materials for white-stone architecture were once mined. Since ancient times, the cave was empty, until during the Great Patriotic War it was equipped with a bomb shelter.

There is a legend about a soldier who, at the cost of his life, saved people hiding in a bomb shelter. When the soldier saw a stone slab falling on people, he grabbed it and held it while people left the cave. Among those rescued was the soldier's elderly mother.

When the soldier's strength was exhausted, he released the slab, and it fell, crushing him. The rescued people, in gratitude to the soldier, decided to bury his remains, but, moving the stone, they did not find anything. They searched for him as much as they could in a dilapidated cave, but neither a soldier nor a trace of him was found.

After the war, the cave was closed for half a century until a group of enthusiasts reopened it. Excursions often go to Silicates. Visitors search here for the lost things of bygone eras, which the cave has kept for many years.

There are very narrow passages in the cave

Often, among the narrow corridors, the ghost of a man in military uniform flickers. Sometimes he leads an old woman by the arm. Apparently, this is the soldier's mother, whom he saved many years ago.

Leningrad region

A mysterious animal lives in Lake Blyodechko 40 km from St. Petersburg and attacks local fishermen. The platter is a small lake, it looks like a pond. But the depth of the reservoir reaches 30 m. The lake has a double bottom. Perhaps the beast is hiding there. There is an assumption that this is a miraculously preserved plesiosaur. The victims of the attack saw only its large paws and jaws.

In the city of Pushkin, flares and fireballs flying at high speed across the sky are often observed in the sky. Ufologists claim that this is a UFO. Flying vehicles of aliens were also seen in the Vyborg region near the Yellow Bay and the Luga reservoir. It is unclear what the extraterrestrial guests were interested in by these lakes of the Leningrad Region.

Another anomalous zone near St. Petersburg is the Sablinskie Caves. Those who have been there have heard strange sounds coming from the darkness more than once, and the photographs of the caves are full of glare and blurred spots. Perhaps the fault of the diggers, whom tourists mistake for ghosts, but whether this is so, no one can say for sure.

An iron cross was erected near the Teplobetonnaya railway platform in memory of the victims of the war, which is often mistaken for the mass burial of soldiers. The cross was welded from rails, erected and consecrated in honor of the fallen front-line soldiers. During the consecration, a photograph was taken in which all the participants in the events disappeared during development. On film, they were replaced by fireballs.

Anti-tank hedgehogs are installed around the cross

After that, the monument attracted the interest of many people who suffered from serious illnesses. Near the cross, they miraculously healed from ailments. Healthy people were charged with positive energy from the monument. Psychics who visited there explained these miracles by the fact that the cross accumulates cosmic energy in itself, which heals the sick and helps healthy people. In addition, they claim that the cross was erected in a place of power where hundreds of thousands of Russian soldiers died, who gave their lives for the welfare of their descendants.

Kostroma Region - Devil's Well

The Kostroma region has long attracted the attention of psychics, ufologists and those who are interested in everything unusual and mystical. The explanation lies in the fact that pagans lived here for hundreds of years after the baptism of Rus. The Kostroma land hides many secrets. Mysterious groves grew here, temples were erected and pagan sacrifices were made to harsh gods. This is the edge of power.

Local residents sometimes do not realize that they live in a fabulous land. They have long been accustomed to being close to evil spirits, and they diligently bypass the anomalous zones, without going into details: why do they do this and why?

Suicide wave and drought

One of the anomalous zones of the Kostroma region is the Devil's Fount. The documents state that a wave of mass suicides swept here a hundred years ago. The surviving inhabitants suffered a new misfortune: drought.

Summer turned out to be dry, and the locals decided to ask for help from their deceased ancestors. They spent the whole night in the cemetery, reading prayers and sprinkling holy water on the graves. On the evening of that day, the sky over the Devil's Well turned black and a heavy downpour began. Large, cold drops of rain mixed with the hail.

As soon as the rain stopped, three houses broke out in different parts of the village. The wet thatched roofs blazed so hard as if the straw had instantly dried up after the rain.

UFOs and scary beasts

According to eyewitnesses, the Devil's Well attracts guests from other worlds. Round and cigar-shaped aircraft are often seen in the sky here. Sometimes they fly rapidly high in the sky, leaving no traces behind, and sometimes they fly slowly, touching the treetops.

UFOs have cast hulls without identification marks, in seconds they can develop a monstrous speed and disappear from the line of sight. Often, alien ships visiting the Devil's Well land in a deep forest near the village. So far, there is no evidence of contact between local residents and aliens.

Perhaps, guests arriving on our planet are conducting experiments here on the local fauna. Otherwise, how can one explain the appearance in the local forest of wolves with a skin that cannot be shot? Several times local hunters came across these mysterious creatures. Their bullets bounced off the fur of the animals with a clink, and the animals themselves behaved strangely: instead of attacking people, they hid in an impassable thicket.

While exploring the forest, teams of ufologists often stumbled upon burnt trees and landings from large and heavy aircraft. Some scientists were fortunate enough to even witness flashes in the sky, which were accompanied by wolf howls.

Parapsychologists who have visited the Devil's Kladezi are sure that the village and the surrounding area are full of negative energy. Its source is located deep in the earth, but it was not possible to find out what it is.

Death Valley (Kamchatka)

Locals avoid these places. There are no paths or roads. Death Valley is full of the bones of dead birds and the half-decayed corpses of large animals: bears, lynxes and wolves.

The first to discover the Valley were the hunters. Their dogs got lost at the foot of the Kikhpinych volcano. After a long search, the hunters found the corpses of dogs among the many carcasses of dead animals. Leaving the valley, the hunters felt unwell and a sudden surging weakness. Only by a miracle did they manage to leave the terrible place.

Death Valley Victim

Rumors about the anomalous zone spread throughout the Union, and a stream of researchers poured in here. Their bodies can still be found at the bottom of Death Valley.

Scientists suggest that the acid fumes that the earth exudes are to blame. The analyzes carried out have established that toxic cyanide compounds are present in the air of the Valley.

Omsk region, Okunevo village

In the village of Okunevo, which is located in a remote area more than 200 km from Omsk, researchers of anomalous phenomena and scientists from all over the world constantly come. And it is no coincidence, because it is often observed here:

• crimson fog;
• ghosts;
• glowing objects;
• flames in the sky.

According to the assumptions of Siberian historians, here, in the territory that belongs to the Muromtsevsky district of the Omsk region, people lived long before the 18th century, when the first settlers came. About 300 thousand years ago, a civilization lived in the west of Siberia, which disappeared without a trace for some unknown reason. Traces of her stay are still found. For more than two decades, archaeological excavations have been conducted on the banks of the Tara River, which flows near Okunevo. Scientists find here the ruins of residential houses, religious buildings and necropolises.

Skulls found in Okunevo

The famous Indian prophet and clairvoyant Satya Baba claimed to profess a religion brought to India by ancient settlers from Western Siberia. He said that earlier in Siberia there was a temple of Hanuman, a humanoid monkey, a patron of knowledge and a healer. Hanuman could fly through the air, change his appearance and possessed the power to move mountains. The priests of the temple, according to the clairvoyant, were initiated into many secrets of the world. God rewarded them with a crystal of extraterrestrial origin, granting spiritual insight. There is a theory according to which the chronicle of an ancient civilization was recorded on the crystal.

An ancient altar was found not far from Okunevo, on which bloody sacrifices were brought. He was found by Rasma Rositis, a follower of the ascetic Mahavatar Babaji. The find was preceded by a week of fasting and prayer before the luminous beings took Rasma to the altar. After studying it, she came to the conclusion that this is Omkar, the place where the planet exchanges energy with the Cosmos. The people called him the navel of the Earth.

Okunevo village is surrounded by four lakes. Siberian healers believe that the water in these lakes is curative. These lakes appeared as a result of a meteorite falling to the Earth, and they were filled with the healing energy of the Cosmos. One of the lakes is still hidden from prying eyes, no one has yet managed to find it. According to the healers, soon people on the planet will be struck by a disease that can only be cured with water from a hidden lake.

The famous Western mystic and predictor Edgar Cayce predicted in the middle of the 20th century that a major cataclysm would strike humanity in the future. Many countries will be flooded, millions of people will die. Siberia will become a new Ark for people, the cradle of civilization. Here they will be saved and from here they will begin to revive life on planet Earth.

Mysterious Green Island

Before the start of the Great Patriotic War, an aircraft fell on an island not far from Rostov-on-Don. Eyewitnesses mistook him for a German reconnaissance plane. Such aircraft models, in fact, were developed by the Nazis. The Ahnenerbe archives have preserved their photographs: flying discs that look like alien ships. Ufologists still believe that an alien ship was wrecked on Zeleny Island. Perhaps they are right, considering what happened to the island in the future.

UFO or development of German scientists?

The NKVD organized the protection of the crash site, and the incident was classified. But research was hampered by the war. For the island, fierce battles were fought with the Germans, who were desperately trying to get through to the mysterious aircraft.

Modern eyewitnesses claim that people often disappear on the island. The missing are found asleep. Before disappearing, all of them saw a black stone that called them to him and put them to sleep as soon as they approached him. The disappearances took place in the least explored western part of the island or on the approaches to it. It is difficult to get there because of the dense vegetation, which, like a barrier, protects unknown places.

Several scientific expeditions have identified faint anomalies in the western part of the island. Perhaps their appearance is associated with destroyed underground structures, access to which is closed by rubble.

Samarskaya Luka

By the number of mystical phenomena, the Samarskaya Luka Park is considered one of the most active anomalous zones in the world. Bigfoot is often seen here. Eyewitnesses describe him as a two-meter giant, covered with thick hair and with deep-set eyes. Jaegers constantly find grass crumpled in the form of perfect circles. Ufologists who have visited the park believe that these are traces of UFO landings.

On the territory of "Samarskaya Luka" there is Mount Svetlka. This place is considered fertile. Many tourists travel specially to climb the mountain and recharge with positive energy. Visitors get healthier and negative thoughts go away. Scientists have discovered a break in tectonic plates under Svetlka. It is believed that such natural phenomena are the gateway to the otherworldly worlds. People with psychic abilities can develop their talents here, as these are places of power.

Here equipment fails, mobile communications disappear and accumulators and batteries are rapidly discharged. Often, tourists find themselves in spatial anomalies, where time flows in a different way. Wandering inside anomalies, they find themselves in a different reality. The hours they spend there on Earth become days.

Lovozero

Anomalous zone in the Murmansk region. It was discovered at the beginning of the 20th century by an expedition of local historians headed by A. Barchenko.

Here, phenomena such as:

• gravity anomalies;
• distortion of time and space;
• meeting with Bigfoot;
• rejuvenation of the body.

Fig 14. Lovozero - a place of power

In 1999, Valery Demin's expedition visited here. Scientists were looking for traces of the legendary Hyperborea.

The mystery of the Vilyui boilers

Death Valley was nicknamed the anomalous zone in Yakutia. Not far from the Vilyui River, in a valley hidden from the world by rugged mountains, huge metal structures resembling boilers are sunk into the ground. Rumor keeps many rumors and legends about these buildings. They say that rooms have been dug under the arches of the boilers, in which it is always warm, despite the severe Yakut frosts. Perhaps the appearance of buildings is associated with the fall of the Tunguska meteorite.

The mystery of the Vilyui cauldrons has not been solved

Expeditions of ufologists have come here more than once in the hope of finding mysterious buildings in the Valley of Death. But each time, tragic accidents prevented scientists from reaching their goal. Sometimes the buildings disappeared, and the expeditions wandered for a long time without finding them.

Those who managed to reach the metal buildings complained of malaise, headaches and bouts of unreasonable panic. The buildings themselves were surrounded by abnormally dense thickets of grass and bushes.

In 2002, a group of local geology students managed to locate one of the cauldrons near a flowing river. They were unable to determine the exact size of the metal cauldron as there was only one edge above the ground. Geologists tried to break off a piece of the cauldron with axes, but the strange metal turned out to be harder. The researchers could not find the entrance to the underground rooms, and the permafrost prevented them from digging the ground.

Pleshcheyevo lake

The lake in the Yaroslavl region is famous for its unusual fogs. Getting into them, people lost their sense of time and experienced an extraordinary uplift. The fog reliably hid the world around them from them, but dissipated over the black path, as if inviting them to walk along it. The path, according to testimonies, has always been straight and, walking along it, people saw the silhouettes of knights in the thick fog and heard the monotonous muttering of old voices in an unfamiliar language, similar to ancient prayers. When the fog cleared, the travelers found themselves ten kilometers from the place where they were overtaken by white clouds. But not everyone was lucky enough to get out of the fog, many were missing.

On the shore of Lake Pleshcheyevo lies the famous relic - the Blue Stone. It is believed that the stone heals from ailments, one has only to touch it. According to an ancient legend, a pagan tribe that lived here before the Slavs worshiped the Sin-stone as a deity. The Slavs who came after them erected the temple of Yarila on the hill where the stone lay, and sacrifices began to be made on the stone.

With the advent of Christianity, the temple was burned, but the monastery, and later the chapel, erected in its place, did not take root. They were destroyed by fire. The locals perceived these signs as a manifestation of the power of the ancient gods. Here they celebrated major pagan holidays - Maslenitsa and Kupala night. The alarmed ministers of the church assured the inhabitants that demonic power was contained in the stone, but their persuasion were in vain. The blue stone attracted people to itself. Then it was decided to get rid of him and put an end to the cult of the pagan shrine.

The stone was loaded onto a sleigh and driven across the ice across the frozen lake. It was planned to lay it in the foundation of the church, but the stone fell out of the sleigh and, breaking through the ice, went to the bottom. After half a century, the stone reached the shore, and soon it independently reached the foot of the hill, where there was a temple. Parapsychologists believe that it was not without telekinesis or evil spirits. On moonless nights, the stone exudes a bluish glow.

Every year the stone sinks deeper into the ground

Alien ships were repeatedly seen over Lake Pleshcheev. Perhaps guests from other worlds also feel the strong energy of the ancient shrine.

Popov bridge

The bridge that was built across the Pesochnaya river in the Kaluga region is considered one of the anomalous zones in Russia.

Cars on it stall, horses refuse to approach the bridge, and locals often see pale silhouettes of ghosts. It is still unknown what happened here and what caused the presence of restless souls. It is said that there is a curse imposed by a witch on the bridge. Apparently, it also touched the old cemetery, which is located near the Pesochnaya River.

Researchers have repeatedly observed the bridge and the surrounding area, but so far have not been able to record anything unusual.

Shushmor tract

A wicked and terrible place in the suburbs. For many kilometers around it there are no settlements or residential buildings. The tract became infamous because of the many people missing here. They disappeared without a trace, leaving no traces or bodies behind.

Those who have been here and survived say that the vegetation in Shushmor is abnormally active: the grass reaches the height of human growth, and the tree trunks are unusually wide.

Ufologists who investigated the Tract recorded:

• radiance in the sky;
• sounds of unknown origin;
• ball lightning.

Local legend says that in the center of Shushmor there is an ancient temple built in the form of a hemisphere. Another legend says that the building is a burial mound, under which one of the Mongol generals who attacked Russia is buried.

Solovetsky labyrinths

The Solovetsky archipelago includes dozens of islands of different sizes. Solovetsky labyrinths have been preserved on many islands since ancient times. Historians call the approximate time of their creation - the Stone Age.

Sometimes spirits are seen here moving in spirals of labyrinths.

Labyrinths are spirals on the ground lined with stones. Piles of stones lie in the center of the spirals. According to one version, these are ancient cemeteries. Their shape symbolizes the transition of the soul from the world of the living to the world of the dead, and also does not allow evil spirits to enter our world.

A little about the author:

Many skeptics who do not believe in mysticism and believe that a scientific explanation can be found for everything will certainly doubt the reliability of the information presented below. But in any case, it makes no sense to deny that there are a number of inexplicable anomalies in nature that are not just frightening, but terrifying.

Stories with mysterious disappearances and deaths in disastrous places that can be found in Russia cool the blood and make you truly horrified. In the continuation of the article, you will find a list of the most terrible places in our country.

Devil's cemetery (Krasnoyarsk Territory)

There are 75 known missing or dead over the past 30 years. On the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, on the top of a low mountain, there is a strange glade with a hole in the very center. According to some reports, it was formed in 1908. Theories were put forward that the appearance of this place is directly related to the fact of the fall of the Tunguska meteorite, and the hole in the center is nothing more than the mouth of a long-extinct volcano, punctured by the object during the fall. People called this strange place the Devil's Cemetery.

Over the past thirty years, at least 75 people have either disappeared or died in this area. Being in the Devil's Cemetery is destructive for all living things. Hundreds of cows died, determined to taste the herbs from the clearing. In the post-war period, all residents of these unsafe places were resettled. From the stories of the old residents, it became known that a huge number of people died either on the territory of the clearing itself, or being in a small radius from it.

In the 80s, researchers became interested in this anomalous zone and began to stubbornly search for the Devil's Cemetery. Several expeditionary squads are still missing. About 75 search engines also did not return from search trips.

In 1991, an eerie clearing was found. A large, serious expedition was going to study it. In the same year that the meadow was found, a film was made about this place, called "Devil's Cemetery". Many publications published articles and photos about this mysterious place. Those wishing to visit the area of ​​the Devil's Cemetery should know that it is not worth setting up a camp closer than one kilometer, but it is more correct and more convenient to set up a camp at the mouth of the Deshemba River. The easiest way to get to your destination is along the river. It is really possible to successfully raft only in the period from May to early June. Only professionals should go on a hike, since the area is very difficult.

Mountain of the Dead (Sverdlovsk Region)

In 1959, a group of young enthusiasts led by Igor Dyatlov went on an expedition to the Mountain of the Dead. The ascent to the summit began on February 1. By coincidence, it is on this day that a magical festival called Candlemas takes place. Before reaching the summit, a group of nine people set up camp for the night. It is not known what the young people witnessed and what made them, having cut the tent from the inside, hastily leave it, going out into the cold with practically no clothes. No trace of anyone else's presence was found. No signs of a struggle. No trace of the elements. At the same time, all participants had terrible injuries, some had their tongues pulled out, all of them had purple or orange skin, unnatural even for the dead.

By decree from above, everything concerning the Dyatlov expedition was in the strictest secrecy. Dyatlov's group is not the only one who died on the slopes of the terrible mountain. Several expeditions never returned home after visiting her. In the 90s, the publishing house of the Gentry newspaper published a huge amount of material dedicated to the Mountain of the Dead. At the same time, specialists from Vladivostok carried out thorough ufological studies. And today this place does not attract tourists too much because of its notoriety. Although at the moment there are no anomalous manifestations on the mountain and it is safe to visit.

Devil's Lair (Volgograd Region)

In the Volgograd region, on the ridge called Medvetskaya, there is a place called the Devil's Lair. According to the information received, spontaneous combustion of people occurs in this place. The bodies of the local shepherd Mamaev Yuri in 1990 and the combine operator Tsukanov Ivan were found. But it is reliably known that Ivan burned down, saving the combine and the grain field from an unexpected fire.

In the case of the shepherd, there is evidence that the cause of his death was the burning of hay. Nevertheless, this place is considered unkind, although the expedition conducted did not reveal any anomalies. It is safe for hiking trips.

Lake Labynkyr

In the east of Yakutia, in the Oymyakonsky district, there is a reservoir overgrown with legends and amazing stories. A lake called Labynkyr. According to legend, an animal of incredible size lives in the lake, it is assumed that it is of relic origin. According to local residents, this creature swallows large animals and people. Based on rumors, the death toll is more than ten people. But all this is not reliable, there is no real evidence. The terrain is wild and difficult to pass, which does not attract researchers. It is because of its mystery that this place is included in the list of the most creepy ones. There are several "valleys" that claim to be the Valley of Death. One of them is located in Valdai, in the Novgorod region. According to local beliefs, somewhere there is a mysterious "stump", near which people and animals disappeared. In fact, no one has seen this "stump", the police are also skeptical, there have been no reports of missing people.

Yakutia also has its own "Valley of Death" - Elyuya Cherkechekh. Its supernaturalness has not been confirmed, none of the researchers have seen any hemispheres emitting heat, copper cauldrons and other anomalous formations. For ten years, we studied the data on this area, invited about 2000 specialists for the whole time, and this is not taking into account the help of people who responded to our advertisements in the newspapers. And, summing up, they came to the conclusion that the supernaturalness of this zone is just an invention based on local legends.

Another Death Valley is located on the Kamchatka Peninsula, not far from the Valley of Geysers. This time its existence is confirmed. There is a large number of animal deaths there, and there has been unconfirmed data on deaths in the area. As a result of our research, it was revealed that mortality among animals is explained by gas poisoning, the causes and frequency have not been identified. For a person, being in this zone does not pose a danger, since he will be able to leave the zone on his own in the event of a gas release. It is not recommended to spend the night in this area.

The exact number of the deceased is unknown, according to preliminary estimates, we are talking about tens of thousands. The sad history of this area creates an atmosphere of fear around.

In the Omsk region there is the Muromtsevsky district, in which the village is located, which has a beautiful name - Okunevo. It gained wide popularity due to the fact that it is the center of an anomalous zone in which it is not clear what is happening.

Local residents say that the first anomalous phenomenon in their village was noticed after the Great Patriotic War ended. In 1945, on the bank of a river flowing near the village, village boys played. Suddenly, three women "grew" out of the water, their height was truly enormous. The boys got scared and fled to the village. There they told about what they had seen. But the adults didn't believe them.

And in 1947, a local teacher heard bells ringing in the sky. She looked up and froze in amazement, as she saw in the air flying horses of unprecedented beauty.

In subsequent years, the inhabitants of the village of Okunevo began to notice anomalous phenomena very often. For example, the villagers are so accustomed to flying in the sky of colorful balloons and UFOs that they no longer began to pay attention to them. True, at this time, livestock begins to get very worried and scatter.

Is it possible that anomalous phenomena arise from the mysterious lakes that surround the village? A legend has emerged about these four lakes. If you believe her, then in a parallel reality there is a fifth lake. And if you mix the liquids of all five lakes, you get a real fabulous "living" water, curing ailments and getting rid of any misfortune.

The fifth mythical lake has not yet been found, so it is believed that the most mysterious lake Shaitan has water with medicinal properties. To collect healing water, pilgrims from all over Russia and from abroad, especially from India, come to Lake Shaitan.

Local residents are convinced that the lake water actually cures many diseases. In addition, it is believed that, being in the anomalous zone, a person harmonizes his energy, which is why he is healed and spiritually enlightened. Therefore, it is surprising that the villagers have good health, they are not long-livers, and they do not have any spirituality.

Anomalies that are noticed on Lake Shaitan may not be associated with this reservoir, but pilgrims go to it, collect water and mud. According to the existing legend, under the Siberian lake there is a city where the giant Hanuman lives, who once helped the god Rama when he wanted to defeat evil forces.

Relatively recently, the following happened here. Indians came to the village of Okunevo. In the morning they took a compass and went to Lake Shaitan. It was not more than an hour's journey to him. But the pilgrims walked for an hour or two, and the lake was not visible. The forest became thicker and impassable. The Hindus walked for seven hours, but did not reach the lake. They got scared and decided to follow the compass. It's incredible, but after 20 minutes they ended up in the village of Okunevo.

But the locals did not find the pilgrims' adventure surprising, because, according to them, there is a time when it is not advisable to leave the village. Most often this happens when strange purple clouds appear in the sky in the morning. The Indians were lucky, because not everyone returns from such a trip.

Hunters from local residents are convinced that there is a passage in the vicinity of their village, and it is for this reason that anomalous phenomena occur here. Therefore, people disappear in these places. In addition, uninvited guests from the parallel world also come to ours: the hunters more than once noticed footprints in the snow that belong to the Bigfoot - their length is about a meter. Footprints can stretch like a chain and suddenly break off, as if the one who left them disappeared into thin air.

In the Muromtsevsky district of the Omsk region there is a village with a beautiful name - Okunevo. However, it became famous not because of its "fishing" name - it is practically the center of the anomalous zone, where, as they say in Russia, the devil knows what happens.

Okunevo village and surrounding lakes

In the village itself, a story is passed from mouth to mouth that anomalies were first noticed here immediately after the Great Patriotic War. Just in 1945, the boys playing on the bank of the river suddenly saw three women of enormous height emerge from the water. Children rushed to the village to tell adults about this miracle. But, obviously, nobody believed them. However, in 1947, a local teacher once heard bells ringing from the sky. Looking up, the woman was stunned: horses of unprecedented beauty were flying over the ground in the air ...

And further in the area of ​​the village of Okunevo, such anomalies began to occur more and more often, for example, multi-colored balloons and UFOs in the sky for local residents became so common that no one pays attention to them anymore, unless the cattle have to be held at this moment, which is why something is very worried and scatters.

Maybe the reason is the mysterious lakes surrounding the village? There are four of them, but there is a legend that somewhere (apparently, in a parallel dimension) the fifth lurked, and now a mixture of liquid from all five lakes is supposedly capable of acquiring the property of real fabulous "living water" - from all ailments and misfortunes.

But until no one has found the fifth mythical reservoir, the medicinal properties are attributed to himself mysterious lake named Shaitan. Pilgrims from all over Russia, and even from abroad, constantly come to him for medicinal water. They say that the water from this lake really helps with many diseases, even just being in this anomalous zone (which is why pilgrims near Okunevo constantly arrange summer camps) harmonizes a person's energy, which contributes to healing, as well as his spiritual enlightenment. But the locals themselves are somehow not distinguished by either good health, or longevity, or some great spirituality - ordinary village people.

True, Lake Shaitan itself is a separate conversation ...

Anomalies of Lake Shaitan near the village of Okuneva

Perhaps this is not connected with the lake itself, namely with the village, but pilgrims come here most often for the water and mud of Shaitan. There is even a legend that the Siberian Shaitan Lake hides the city of the giant Hanuman, who once helped the god Rama in his struggle against evil forces (there is supposedly a story about this in the Indian epic Ramayana). That is why people from all over the Earth and especially often from India come to this legendary reservoir.

A very interesting case happened here not so long ago. Hindu pilgrims came to him. In the morning they took a compass direction to Shaitan Lake and went to themselves. It took about an hour to walk. But our Indians walk for an hour, then two, and still there is no reservoir. And the forest is getting thicker and more unsightly. In general, persistent pilgrims walked like this for seven hours, but they still did not reach the lake. Finally, they could not stand it (and they were already frightened), and again turned back on the compass - after 20 minutes they returned to the village of Okuneva.

But the locals were not very surprised by this adventure: it turns out that sometimes it is better not to go beyond the village limits at all, especially when the sky is covered with strange purple clouds in the morning. It happens that people do not return from such trips, so the Indians are still lucky ...

Local hunters are sure that somewhere there is a breakthrough into a parallel world, hence, they say, all the misfortunes. You can leave and wander like that in that looking glass for a long time, sometimes for several days, or you may not return at all. Yes, and "from there" guests often visit our world: fishermen often notice in the snow the footprints of the "Bigfoot" up to a meter long (imagine this giant humanoid!) air ...

Attempts to scientifically explain the anomalous phenomena of the village of Okuneva

Scientists and independent researchers of paranormal phenomena have repeatedly appeared on Lake Shaitan in order to discover the causes of the above anomalies. Specialized scientists, for example, Ultimately determined that specific bacteria are cultivated in wetlands near a reservoir due to decaying marsh grasses and algae, and supposedly all this leads to the accumulation (in calm weather) of a special marsh gas here, which causes hallucinations and fainting. In windy weather, poison gas can spread and cover this entire "anomalous zone".

However, the locals did not believe in this theory of scientists. Everything is too simple and unambiguous. And how to explain the same traces of the yeti, which suddenly appear, suddenly disappear, balls and UFOs in the sky, and all this is quietly filmed in photos and videos today (what kind of glitches are these?) quite often people get caught (for example, the same Indians). And it's good if they return, many disappear without a trace. So all this cannot be explained by hallucinations, something is completely different here ...
