Haunted Places in Saudi Arabia

Haunted Places Saudi Arabia – Haunted places really are fascinating and interesting. The phenomena of negative energy and ghosts are unexplained. Scientists and researchers globally try to explain this by science. We have created a list of a haunted places.

Irqah Hospital – Riyadh

The shocking interest with Riyadh’s Irqah Hospital, which treated Gulf War warriors in 1991. Started with tweeted bits of gossip and raised to the point where many adolescents broke into the grounds, crushing windows and lighting fires.

In 2012, “Teenagers sent text messages calling for an operation against some of the jinn who live in the hospital, and they broke into the hospital and smashed its facilities and burned 60 percent of it,” Okaz newspaper reported last week.

The rampage prompted angry press complaints the authorities were allowing the building to fall into disrepair.
Several films have since been posted on YouTube showing grinning young men exploring the building’s deserted rooms in search of evidence of spectral activity.

One showed blazing palm trees that had been torched by the ghost hunters.

Jinn fever reached the point where the Health Ministry issued a terse statement on Monday disclaiming responsibility for the decaying building, which it said was privately owned and too decrepit to be revived as a working hospital. A columnist recommended that authorities form “a committee for the jinn” to help the owners of possessed houses.

“It would be no understatement to say we are sick and tired of evil sorcerers,” said the article.

Unlike in the Western tradition of ghosts, jinn are not the lost souls of the dead but beings who lead parallel lives to humans, whom they sometimes tempt into sinful ways.
