Any large area covered with trees and undergrowth technically defines a forest. For such a bland definition, a forest holds so much more mystery and intrigue. For centuries, forests have captivated the human imagination. Just think about, there’s a forest in at least half of all fairy tales and horror stories.
I’d love to get lost in any of the forests on this list, although some are much creepier than others. Don’t mistake me for brave, I would at least like a tall black horse, to help me navigate these mysteriously creepy forests.
This well known forest is located in Gorbea Nature Park in Biscay, Basque, Spain.

7. Chinese Hemlock Trail, Tapingshan, Taiwan
The Chinese Hemlock Trail is a short path that travels uphill through an old, dense forest. It isn’t easy to reach the top of the seemingly endless steps, but doing so reaps great rewards. A large overlook platform at the top offers breathtaking views that stretch as far as Dabajian Mountain.

19. Ghost Tree Forest Mt. Seymour, British Columbia
When these trees become covered in snow they resemble giant ghosts, monsters and sometimes even prehistoric dinosaurs! In fact, they look more like characters from a Disney movie than snow-covered trees.
