Selatangar, a hauntingly beautiful spot on the Reykjanes peninsula in Iceland, was once a bustling fishing hub from the middle ages to the late 19th Century. Now, all that remains are crumbling ruins hidden amongst rugged lava fields and crashing waves. Despite its desolate charm, it's not a place you'd want to call home, with treacherous terrain and relentless ocean waves. Rumored to be haunted by Tanga Tómas, Selatangar is a fascinating yet eerie location that will leave you feeling both intrigued and spooked.
