A really scary house which has gotten many neighbours really afraid to
even walk past it at night, has gotten many people talking. In the town of Ratomka, five kilometers from the Belorussian
capital of Minsk, there is a house so spooky that some people try to
avoid walking past it at all costs, especially at night. With skeletal
hands coming out of the stone fence, devils decorating the roof and
dozens of black skulls covering a domed structure on the property, the
scariest house in Belarus is definitely a sight to behold.
Photos of the spooky house in Ratomka recently went viral in
Belarus, with most people praising the owner for the bold artistic
design. However, the only reason that the house even became famous in
the first place was because people living in its vicinity had been
complaining that it is too spooky.
Some of them even filed complaints to the local authorities about
it, claiming that the devils and skulls were scaring children and even
adults walking by after dark, but they haven’t done anything about it
yet.
“I photographed the house with my phone, to show it to
colleagues at work, and then I deleted the photos because I didn’t want
such devils in my phone’s memory,” Ratomka resident Maria Nikolaevna told TUT.by.
“From the distance, the house looked pretty, my granddaughter
even compared it to a fairytale castle. But when we got closer and saw
the hands coming out of the fence, and the devils on the roof, I was
shocked. Now I don’t walk my granddaughter by that house anymore. At
night, it’s scary even for adults, as the light reflects off those
little metal devils and they look even creepier.”
One of the next-door neighbors of the house also complained that
the view was horrible, with all those devils dotting the roofs, and the
spooky black skulls covering the domed roof of a smaller structure
resembling a crypt. He even noticed that one of the devil sculptures
seems to be aiming a bow directly at his window, which makes him uneasy.
Neighbors say that the owner of the house is actually just an
ordinary businessman. He started building the house a decade ago, but
then went away for eight years and only cam back 2 years ago and resumed
work on it. Now it’s almost finished, and people are scared he might
add even more spooky elements to it before he’s done.
Like it or not, you have to agree that the decor may actually prove
to be an excellent deterrent against thieves, especially id they’re the
superstitious type. I would definitely think twice before going into a
place like that at night.
