Epping Forest – England

Nearest city: Loughton

Epping Forest spans nearly 6,000 acres between London and Essex and has a long, unsettling reputation rooted in crime, folklore, and unexplained phenomena. Once a notorious haunt for highwaymen like Dick Turpin, the forest later became the scene of multiple murders and alleged occult gatherings in the 20th century. Visitors frequently report ghostly horsemen, flickering lantern lights, and sudden disorientation within the thick woodland. Modern paranormal teams have documented EVP voices near Hangman’s Hill — where cars appear to roll uphill against gravity and strange mist formations that appear without weather cause.
