Reaching some of the darkest corners of the world, this is a compendium of travel destinations like no other.

Author Peter Hohenhaus has visited nearly all of the places featured in the book, and brings his first-hand knowledge to the reader. Dark tourism has seen a surge in popularity in the last decade as people seek a richer travel experience, choosing to meaningfully engage with our more troubling heritage rather than opting for merely escapist vacations. This is the first book to bring together 300 destinations in a readable and fascinating guide, from nuclear bunkers and disaster sites to strange medical museums and eerie catacombs.
