Al Jazirah Al Hamra

Ras Al KhaimahUnited Arab Emirates14th century–1968

Al Jazirah Al Hamra, known locally as the Ghost Town of Ras Al Khaimah, is the most famous abandoned coastal pearling village in the United Arab Emirates. Deserted en masse during the late 1960s as oil revenues transformed the nation, its coral-stone houses, narrow alleys, and wind-tower fort stand frozen in time. Local folklore insists that the vacant settlement is inhabited by jinn, whose disembodied voices and shadowy presences warn visitors away after nightfall.

Al Madam Buried Village

Al MadamUnited Arab Emirates1970s–1990s

Al Madam Buried Village, often called the Ghost Village of Sharjah, is a haunting complex of twelve houses and a mosque built in the 1970s that is slowly being swallowed by shifting red sand dunes. Constructed as part of a government housing project for the semi-nomadic Al Ketbi Bedouin tribe, the settlement was mysteriously deserted by the mid-1990s. Regional rumors attribute its rapid abandonment to an unsettling supernatural force, specifically the mythical female jinn Umm Duwais.
