“He walked into the house that night… but no one ever saw him again.”
In Gwangju, South Korea, there’s an old, decaying house known as the “Haunted House of ○○-dong”.
It’s not just another urban myth—a real disappearance took place there. And to this day, locals speak of the place in hushed tones.
They say the house doesn’t just scare you.
It swallows people whole.
Discover the terrifying truth behind the infamous haunted house in ○○-dong, Gwangju, South Korea—where a real person vanished without a trace. A chilling urban legend backed by police reports, paranormal claims, and eyewitness accounts.
🧱 1. A Normal House… At First
The haunted house of ○○-dong once looked like any ordinary suburban home.
Built in the late 1980s in the quiet outskirts of Gwangju, it was a two-story brick residence owned by a middle-aged couple.
But behind its ordinary facade, a series of dark events unfolded: business failure, depression, and family breakdowns.
By the mid-1990s, the entire family vanished. No goodbye, no forwarding address.
Locals began noticing strange things—cries heard at night, shadows in the windows, and an eerie, heavy feeling that settled over the place.

🧥 2. The Disappearance – Summer, 2007
August 2007. A group of university students, led by 21-year-old Yoon, visited the house for a late-night “ghost adventure.”
It was supposed to be a thrill—a joke.
But Yoon never came back.
His friends told the police:
“We were only inside for five minutes before we ran out. But Yoon… he didn’t follow.”
Despite an extensive investigation, no trace of him was ever found.
Then, over the next three years, two more people reportedly vanished, both last seen near the haunted house.
The name “○○-dong Haunted House” became infamous—and feared.

🔍 3. Aftermath – A Place Even Police Avoid
Eventually, the house was sealed off with barbed wire and declared a restricted area.
Still, thrill-seeking YouTubers tried to sneak in. One livestreamer’s feed suddenly cut out mid-broadcast—and he went missing for two days.
When found, he simply muttered,
“I… I don’t remember anything.”
Strange reports followed:
- Electronics malfunctioning inside the house
- Unexplained cold spots and radio interference
- Dreams of the house shared by people who’ve never been there
Some even claimed to see a woman’s figure watching from the upstairs window.

🧙 4. The Spirit That Won’t Leave
Several Korean shamans and psychics have visited the site.
Their verdicts were eerily consistent:
“There’s someone—or something—inside that house that refuses to move on. It’s calling people in.”
A paranormal researcher who studied the site noted that the building’s internal dimensions don’t match the floor plans.
“It’s as if the house warps space once you enter it,” he said.
“People describe the layout differently—hallways that shouldn’t exist, rooms that vanish.”
There’s also a persistent rumor about a basement room that doesn’t appear on any official documents.

🧱 5. Why Is It Still There?
Despite its reputation, the house has never been demolished.
Local residents say that construction crews kept getting injured or backing out.
Some whisper,
“It’s safer to just leave it alone.”
Now surrounded by fences, warning signs, and even security cameras, the house still manages to attract the curious.
And every now and then, another story surfaces:
Someone went in.
And they never came out.
🎯 Final Thoughts
The ○○-dong Haunted House still stands today.
Locals avoid it. Ghost hunters chase it. And believers swear it’s not just haunted—it’s cursed.
Whether you see it as myth, madness, or mystery… one thing is certain:
No one who enters leaves quite the same.
