Haunted Waterfall of Sri Lanka: Lovers Leap

Image
Wonderful and worth a trip for the breathtaking views from its top, Lovers Leap is also notorious for being haunted by the spirits of a tragic couple. Cautious locals avoid this place after nightfall, believing in the story of a commoner and a prince, whose forbidden love led to their fateful dive into death together. The tale is romantically unfortunate and terrifying. In September 1915, the despairing Jane Riley ended her life by jumping off the falls into the rocky chasm below. Visitors have reported eerie whispers and ghostly apparitions, adding to the waterfall's haunted allure.
