Whether it's due to their bizarre histories, suspicious coincidences or good old human insanity, these are the locations even the die-hardest of atheists wouldn't venture into without a crucifix and a Super Soaker full of Pope-blessed water.
I'll start with one that comes directly from my very own Portugal.
The chapel was in fact the work of a single 16th-century Franciscan monk who wanted to make his fellow Christians contemplate the transitory nature of life.
The entrance is marked with "We bones, lying here, for yours we wait."
In addition to cementing human bones in its walls, proudly exhibits two full skeletons (one of a small child) suspended on chains
