Is Foncebadón actually claimed to be haunted?
Really? Where? Never walked through one. Super quiet ues, but never abandonned.Haunted villages? Not to my knowledge.
Ghost towns? Many. Especially in the meseta, where concentration of property and mechanization of agriculture drove peasants off the land and into the cities. You can cross a village without seeing a soul, hearing the laughter of a child, even the noise of a TV. In the bars you find old people talking about past times.
Only in vacations some families came back from cities.
No, no ghosts.
Packs of wild dogs though . . . .
Hello, everyone. My husband and I walked the Camino Frances last summer, and stayed in a lovely pensión in Foncebadón. The next day we talked to a man who claimed that Foncebadón was "really haunted."
We enjoyed our time in Foncebadón and never felt unsafe or creeped out there. I'm just curious if anyone has any insight on this topic. Is Foncebadón actually claimed to be haunted?

When was that? Just stayed at St Brigidas in Hontanas last April. It was one of the highlights of my 2nd CFHontanas is a good candidate for a haunted village. We saw the signpost "Welcome to Hontanas" but there was nothing, not a single house or barnyard. We started to joke that it was inhabited by ghosts, and that after a while we would see another signpost: "You are leaving Hontanas".
The answer, obviously, is that the village is in a hollow, in the bottom of a muddy valley -an odd place, really. There was not a person in sight, only houses with closed doors and some boarded windows. The wind whistled through the maze of old streets. It was misty and cold. Quite eery, really.
But the bar was warm, noisy and welcoming, with a throng of pilgrims and some old local people.

Yes, that was a "pilgrimage"...Most likely this rumours comes from Paulo Coehlo's (in)famous book about his 'pilgrimage'...
Leones and tigers and bears, Leones and Tigers and Bears, Follow the yellow brick thing etc ad nauseum
It can be if you want it to be.claimed that Foncebadón was "really haunted."
Just seeing this now. I stayed in Foncebadon on my Camino. During my stay there I noticed how strangely lethargic the animals seemed…That night, while sleeping on the floor of a big room with many other pilgrims…I woke up in the wee hours of the morning and began to feel strangely anxious. I couldn’t shake it. Also, I heard the animals outside and they seemed lively, making sounds, so unlike earlier in the day. I could not go to sleep and stayed in a strange state of alertness the rest of the night. I did feel creeped out. I spoke about this at breakfast and the owner of the place I stayed told me that the town was haunted and that I must have sensed it. It was a really strange experience—I was sensitive to it and aware.Hello, everyone. My husband and I walked the Camino Frances last summer, and stayed in a lovely pensión in Foncebadón.
