• The Shunned House: a building that nobody in town will enter; it's bad manners to even discuss it. Maybe nasty lawbreakers (cannibals, or folk who sold their children) lived there; or people died of disease or unknown causes; or it was contaminated with chemical/biological/nuclear hazardous waste; or it gathered a haunted reputation; or some odd legal or religious ritual requires it ("It's the house of the night spirit ... he needs a home, otherwise he'll come into YOUR home!").
