The Dark Pirate Stories travels around the world in search of abandoned places and doesn't take anything from the places, only pictures and with the highest respect to all locations.
All abandoned locations are being kept a secret.
The Dark Pirate Stories only walk inside a deserted place if there is a natural access /without spoiling anything to come in/.
