The 12 creepiest and most haunted Churches that have been abandoned (With Pictures)

9. Louisiana Church

This decaying church from near Chackbay in Louisiana has all the markings of an appropriately creepy abandoned building: rotting wooden beams, spindly tree branches growing through the walls, a precariously angled tower, window frames without any glass left in them, walls that look like they will collapse at the slightest hint of a breeze.

Of course, the tinted black and white photography and overcast skies only makes it that much creepier. The only thing that is missing is a ghostly face peeking through one of those broken window frames at the camera. Or the black silhouette of a hooded figure standing terrifyingly in the woods behind the church. Or maybe a flock of birds perched high up in the trees with blood dripping from their beaks.

But even without those over-the-top additions, this abandoned church from the home of gumbo and jazz music is exceedingly creepy.
