Creepy Buildings

 The ennis house by frank Lloid wright


Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, the Ennis House in Los Angeles, California is one of Hollywood's favorite spooky places. It's where Vincent Price held his creepy dinner party in the 1959 filmHouse on Haunted Hill. The Ennis House also appeared in Ridley Scott's Blade Runner and in eerie TV shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Twin Peaks. What makes the Ennis House so spooky? Maybe it's the pre-Columbian look of the textured concrete block. Or, maybe it's the years of weathering that put the the house on the National Trust's "Most Endangered" list. _{Photo: Ennis House © Mary Ann Sullivan, www.bluffton.edu/~sullivanm/}

Prague, the golden city in Czech Republic, has a secret side that is both beautiful and eerie. At the turn of the century, Prague was home to the surrealist author, Franz Kafka. Its convoluted streets and unpredictable architecture are reflected in his bizarre, disturbing stories. _{Photo: Archbishop's Palace at Prague Castle, Czech Republic. © Diane Macdonald/Getty Images}
