13 of the scariest cemeteries in the world you don't want to visit at night

1. La Recoleta Cemetery in Buenos Aires In a city known for its high life and fun nightlife, this "city of the dead" offers a seriously different scene from what you'll find on the streets outside its walls. When it comes to gravestone extravagance, no one does it better than Argentina. Lavish statues compete with rainbows of flowers left by mourners who come to pray at their final resting place under cloudy skies, foggy nights…and bats! Some say the nocturnal winged mammals roost here because of the cemetery's high death toll during the devastating yellow fever epidemic in 1871. 2. Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris The seemingly endless maze of meandering paths through this Parisian burial place make it easy to lose track of where you are and how to find your way back out again—and that would be a very bad thing. So just keep an eye out for zombies as you wander around among more than one million visitors each year who come to pay their respects at the crypts and mausoleums bearing the remains of Jim Morrison, Molière, Oscar Wilde and thousands more.
