If you have murophobia, you might want to steer clear of Karni Mata Temple, which is home to what animal?

Located in Rajasthan, the Temple of Rats – aka Karni Mata Temple – is a Hindu home to thousands of revered rodents. More than 25,000 black rats cover the temple, all because Karni Mata asked Yama, god of death, to revive her son, who'd drowned in a pond. Yama's compromise was that Laxman and all future male children of Mata's would be reincarnated as rats.
