    CasablancaMoroccoEarly 20th Century

    Dar Khalifa, also known as The Caliph's House, is an enchanting walled estate located in the coastal Ain Diab district of Casablanca. Built in the early twentieth century for a local ruler, the sprawling residence became world-famous through author Tahir Shah's book documenting his family's move into the estate and their long efforts to exorcise and live alongside its resident Jinn. Features such as secret hidden rooms, ancient zellij tiling, and lush courtyard gardens are coupled with stories of shadowy guardians, mysterious knockings, and traditional exorcism rituals.

    Hotel Asma

    ChefchaouenMoroccoLate 20th Century

Built in the late twentieth century to accommodate luxury international tourism, the multi-story hotel suffered financial downfall and structural neglect, eventually becoming completely derelict.

    Prison of Kara

    MeknesMoroccoLate 17th Century

    The Prison of Kara, known locally as Habs Qara, is a sprawling subterranean prison built beneath the imperial city of Meknes during the reign of Sultan Moulay Ismail in the late seventeenth century. Designed by a Portuguese architect prisoner who was promised his freedom in exchange for constructing an inescapable dungeon, the vast underground labyrinth once held thousands of European captives, political prisoners, and enslaved labourers. Modern visitors and local residents describe deep feelings of disorientation, ghostly whispers echoing through dark vaulted arches, and phantom shadows lurking in sealed stone corridors that extend for miles beneath the city.
