Image
Kada govorimo o paranormalnim pojavama u Hrvatskoj, gotovo je nemoguce zaboraviti ukletu kucu o kojoj cemo istrazivati u ovom videu. Naime, radi se o jednoj od najpoznatijih ukletih kuca na podrucju Hrvatske.

Uz tu prvu kucu nisu se vezala apsolutno nikakva neobicna dogadanja. Radilo se o jednom sasvim obicnom obiteljskom domu. Kuca svoj strasan ugled dobiva tek krajem 70-ih te pocetkom 80-ih godina proslog stoljeca. Tada se obitelj odlucila odselilti, a kucu su stavili na prodaju. Novi vlasnik je cijelo imanje poklonio svom sinu na dar. Odlucili su srusiti staru kucu te na istom podrucju sagradi...
