Spooky Buildings That Put Us in a Halloween State of Mind

Located in Tokyo, Japan, this is St. Mary’s Cathedral. From the outside, it’s a gorgeous stainless steel building with aesthetic curves in the shape of a cross, but the inside looks like an actual dungeon. It was built in 1964 and renovated in 2007, after replacing an 1899 wooden building destroyed during WWII.

It was designed by Kenzō Tange and engineered by Yoshikatsu Tsunboi. Tange is well known for his Metabolic structural revolution that influenced many styles within Japan after the 1960s. He’s won numerous awards, including one for his creation of Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park in 1949. He died two years before the church’s renovation took place, in 2005, at the age of 91.
