DragonKing Dark: Dark tourism
There is a series on Netflix called “Dark Tourism” where a host takes you to various taboo hotspots around the world where a tourism industry has sprung up. On this week’s DragonKing Dark podcast, host Karl Stern talks about the allure of seeing places of tragedy, disaster, and the macabre.
Why are we drawn to such places? Why do people want to see the spot where someone was murdered, or where life changing accidents occurred? DragonKing Dark explores the dark side of our curiosity.
