Haunted Lake Locations in Zambia

Lake Kariba & Zambezi Gorge

Lake Kariba is one of the world's largest man-made reservoirs, created in the late 1950s by damming the mighty Zambezi River. The flooding of Kariba Gorge displaced over 57,000 Goba and Tonga people and claimed the lives of dozens of construction workers in catastrophic floods. According to regional tradition, the river god Nyami Nyami was angered by the concrete barrier dividing his domain, triggering supernatural storms, drowned towns, and ghostly manifestations across the vast waters.
