5 Mysterious Cursed Treasures Of The World

Here are few cursed places where you will find a treasure box, filled with gold coins and with a note written, “that says the treasure is closed and if take any of the gold you will die a horrible death.”

The Charles Island Curse: This is not just about a treasure that’s cursed, but the entire island surrounding it. This small island off the coast of Millford, Connecticut is also known as Thrice Cursed Island. First, the chief of the Paugussett tribe considered the area sacred. “Any shelter will crumble to the Earth, and he shall be cursed,” he said when Europeans tried to settle there. He was right, no buildings have stood there for any long period of time.
