It is related with visiting places that are connected to death, disasters or accidents, grief, poverty, and so on. As a main motive of this new need of people to practice such a trip, is mentioned the struggle to fight the fears typical of each of us, touching something forbidden, sinister, mystical or simply as an alternative creating a new kind of emotion. It is an direction in the tourism, which is as denied, as economically feasible as a new product for which there is a certain demand and not there canalized supply.
