An abandoned housing project in Phetchaburi, Thailand, got the moniker "The Village of Death" when reported murders occurred, with cloaked figures alleged to have been seen in the streets there.

These creepy sightings made people see the half-finished houses as cursed. In the 1997 financial crisis, this project was only half done and forgotten.

Locals avoid the abandoned housing project calling it "The Village of Death"

To many of the locals in Phetchaburi, seeing the unfinished construction rotting with holes in the roof and missing windows gives off foreboding vibes. Ghost stories abound concerning the development.

Daxton Ward, a photographer who visits such places all over the globe, visited the site to capture it in photographs.

He lives in Thailand and mentions that the place is allegedly where a female student was raped and killed in one of the buildings.

A Thai friend of Ward's had knowledge of the goings-ons in the abandoned buildings there.

The murder victim is a female university student at a nearby university and a relative of a friend. She was discovered dead and assaulted sexually.

A murdered family haunts the site

Other alleged stories that contribute to the alleged haunting include a whole family slaughtered, with dark cloaked figures attached to the place they died.

They were all burned alive inside a bus parked at the abandoned site. Superstitious locals claim these covered figures always manifest at sunset. Ward says the sighting has made locals believe that the place is haunted.

He added that while on the site, there was a feeling of unease, with the gutted derelict structures adding to the sense of foreboding atmosphere. Graffiti was on the decaying walls, which made it more scary than usual.

One of the walls had the word ‘death’ on it, and there were skulls with crossbones in other parts of derelict structures. But Ward added that it was interesting exploring the place. Earlier in the year, eerie photos emerged of a 100-year-old synagogue patterned after a Byzantine palace that was rotting.

The abandoned housing project is called "The Village of Death" by Phetchaburi locals, who think the cloaked figures seen on the site are murder victims, with a student too.
