Island of the Dolls, Mexico:

Isla de Munecas, or the Island of the Dolls is situated in the south of Mexico City, near Xochimilco. It has the creepiest vibes of all the tourist attractions in Mexico. Raggedy old dolls hang from the branches of the dead trees in this island, and tourists love visiting the place to enjoy the scary vibe of the place.

According to the legend, a little girl had drowned off an island hidden in the canals of Xochimilco. A hermit named Don Julian, who lived near the island found one doll after the other from the canals. He took it as a sign from the evil spirits, and began hanging these dolls on the trees in the island.  The entire island turned a shrine to the dolls.
