Scary, apparently


Who would have thought that the little gem of a sweet-nowhere-one-hotel-half-a-street-town Matjiesfontein is in the top ten scariest places in South Africa! The only thing I was scared of was not having enough fun. Well, some people think otherwise... Matjies has got the chills like The Old Goal, the Africana Museum and the Southern Seas...

"At Matjiesfontein, the Victorian village in the Karoo, the past and the present are inseparably intertwined. So do not be surprised to find that some of the visitors are staying forever. Among these are the spirits of founder Jimmy Logan and Lucy, who has never checked out of her hotel room. Wearing only a negligee, she’s often spotted in the corridor."

hmmmm... put that in your Show an Tell ideas bag.
