The oddball genius did such a fine and intricate job that he connected the pieces such precision that no light passes through the joints. The whole bizarre menagerie of rocks was crafted by Edward Leedskalnin. It’s various carved out megalithic stones found between Homestead and Leisure City. Well, to be more exact it’s an oolite limestone structure, weighing several tons, in the unincorporated Miami-Dade County. Aliens, boogiemen, vampires, the very Elder Gods, transdimensional deities, angels, demons, werewolves, pixie and the Winter Court of Fairy staring up at the conglomerate of structures and going, in unison:Ĭoral Castle, where even the ethereal and omniscient is left dumbfounded. Once the day crew calls it quits, and the last doomsday prophet and tin foil wearing buffoon is kicked out, the nightly riff-raff, with sharp teeth, UFOs and ectoplasm, take up the baton and gives the shrine to the looney a look over. Some of the tourists simply don’t pass the smell test the place should employ a staff of lab coat wearing docs’ with butterfly nets. It’s a conglomerate of the abnormal, visited by the outlandish and then worshipped by the peculiar… and that’s just a description of what happens during opening hours. Everyone taking notice… even the supernatural.Ĭoral Castle is not only haunted, it’s also the only place on the planet where the supernatural visits religiously, almost on a pilgrimage, and scratches its head. The sort of bad trip that makes Brian May come up with “Animal Sounds”. Here, I’m sure I have some…”Ĭoral Castle is reality two days after that exchange, pants on her forehead, and her neurons rewire. “You’ve never had molly? Damn, you have to give it a try. Reality on edge because someone spiked her punch and then went: Well, time to put on your stoner cap, switch Willie Nelson on, and find the Cheech to your Chong, because we are heading into a spot so out of left field that left field was pulled over by the pigs and kicked into the drunk tank. Those wild college nights with Dark Side of the Moon and the Wizard of Oz gifting you with on-point insight into the cerebral workings of the mad… or the terminally chilled and mellow. Then, there are places where you turn to your loved one and simply go: Places not as weird as the haunted Coral Castle.
Spots riding the knife’s edge of beautiful and awful. Frames snatched from the creative fueled fevered mind of Dali. Buildings shrouded in mystery, purpose unknown, poking and prodding the surreal. Man-made structures that fray the very edges of sanity and make you do double-takes wondering what wild dream-inspired them. All around the world, there are weird bizarre, truly odd constructions that simply defy human comprehension.
