Society has a growing fascination with dark tourism, with tourism to sites of death and atrocity becoming a ‘trendy’ form of leisure. Chapter 1 introduces the concept of dark tourism and explores the key issues associated with tourism to some of the ‘unhappiest places on Earth’. Dark tourism involves travelling to sites of death, violence, atrocity and pain. The motivations of visitors vary widely, from wanting to be educated, entertained and/or to memorialise a particular atrocity. Regardless of motivations, dark tourism is a cultural activity where tourists are immersed in a pre-selected narrative that shapes how tourists understand the site. In rural sites, this is often ‘sold’ as being a rural dystopia, where the idyllic rural landscape or community has been subverted by the evil act/actions to become sinister or monstrous. Tourism to rural areas is generally seen as beneficial for the local economy, however, not all local communities want to be associated with tragic events.
