The Doors, the legendary 1960s rock band, have made headlines again — not through a new song, but through a mysterious Apple Maps guide created in honor of their 60th anniversary.
What began as a digital tribute turned unexpectedly eerie when fans noticed strange sensations and unusual behavior in the app when exploring the 20 featured locations tied to the band’s history.
The Doors, the legendary 1960s rock band, have made headlines again — not through a new song, but through a mysterious Apple Maps guide created in honor of their 60th anniversary.
What began as a digital tribute turned unexpectedly eerie when fans noticed strange sensations and unusual behavior in the app when exploring the 20 featured locations tied to the band’s history.
🎤 What’s inside this map?
-
Classic venues like Whisky a Go Go, Fillmore Auditorium, and hidden gems like Barney’s Beanery — all places the band frequented, now highlighted for a self-guided fan tour.
-
But some visitors claim that these places “felt off”: unexplainable chills, shifting light, or even navigation glitches at specific times (especially after midnight).
-
A few locations are invisible unless you zoom in or tap the right corner. Some even say you have to read the map descriptions carefully to unlock them — like an urban rock legend scavenger hunt.
😨 Real hauntings or clever nostalgia?
Apple hasn’t confirmed any supernatural intention. But:
-
The descriptions feel unusually personal, as if written by someone who experienced these places on a deeper level.
-
Robby Krieger, guitarist of The Doors, once mentioned he felt like someone was watching him when revisiting Whisky a Go Go late at night.
Some users swear the icon on the map changed into a ghost-like figure when viewed between 2 and 3 AM — although there’s no official statement from Apple.
👣 Who should try it?
-
If you’re a Doors fan, this is your chance to walk where the legends once stood, guided by something between history and mystery.
-
If you’re an adventurer? It’s the closest thing to a haunted rock tour you’ll find on your phone.
⚠️ Caution: Don’t go alone. Many recommend exploring in groups and during the day — after dark, the vibe reportedly gets “too real.”
