Al- Jazirah Al- Hamra (U.A.E.)

Al- Jazirah Al- Hamra Is a ghost town to the south of the city of Ras Alla Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates. The town became abandoned during the 1930s when the business of pearl hunting became depleted and the inhabitants moved to some other place in search for new ways of income.

The town is considered to be a hotspot for djinn activity. There have been reports of strange noises, chilling screams/wails and many unexplainable sightings.

It is believed that once the sun sets, the town comes to life with plenty of unexplainable noises that are not of this world. That is one of the main reasons that people choose to stay away from this place especially at night. Djinns can shapeshift and can appear/disappear at their will. Some locals that still live near the town believe that people who visit the village in the hope of a paranormal encounter are just wasting their time because djinns can only be spotted when they want to be seen.

There are also other spirits in the town. Those spirits are said to never cause any harm to people except frightening them just for fun. Haunted sites include ‘the haunted Mansion of Al Dhait and Dhaga graveyard in Ras al khaimah. Thrill seekers have become regular visitors in the town. New Al Jazirah Al Hamra was built near the old town in 1980 and some of the locals live there. People living there are still reluctant to talk about the supernatural occurences.
