Last weekend Ingrid and Lars from Cosy Travels and I visited visited the abandoned horror-themed restaurant 't Spookhuys, also known as House of 1000 Spirits. Rattling chandeliers, smoking ceilings and moving paintings once decotated this place. Transvestite draculas, illusionists and devil-worshiping dancers entertained the guests while they ate mud pie out of a skull. Rumor has it satanic rituals were held in this house in order to leave angry spirits to roam the premises. Finding 't Spookhuys was a challenge since our GPS indicated that the address was non-existent. Although we didn't see any ghosts or demons around the abandoned restaurant, the place had something unsettling.
The restaurant closed its doors in 2008, but can still be visited at Steenweg op Gierle 441 in Turnhout, Belgium.
I've never been to a horror-themed restaurant before, but I would love to. it looks incredible!

Ziet er eng, maar toch wel tof eruit!
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome, it's a shame that we don't have these kind of restaurants in Hungary :(
ReplyDeleteAww I was hoping it was closer to me, but I guess it doesn't really make a difference if it's closed :/ I bet it would've been fantastic dining there, all lit up by candle light..

ReplyDeleteit looks like you had a very interesting opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI dislike anything horrific, so I've never been to a horror-themed restaurant and would never want to go to one.

It sure is fascinating. Never been to one! But I can only imagine how you can digest your food if you're too scared to eat...

No way! That place is real? It looks so cool. Probably spookier now that it's abandoned. I've been to Jekyll & Hyde restaurant in NYC. Cheesy fun. Also The Slaughtered Lamb pub in NYC has good food.
ReplyDeleteThe freaky decorations make this horor-themed restaurant a great place to bring teens for some fun laughs.
ReplyDeletehello
ReplyDeleteThe abandoned horror-themed restaurant sounds cool. I've never been to a horror-themed restaurant.
ReplyDeletePretty weird, but nice that you can still go see it. I am not big into horror, but I love history. I would go to a historical site like that.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in New York City, there was a theme restaurant based on Jekyll and Hyde. The actors played the parts of the characters... it was awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for a great giveaway! :)
