House Built Using Human Teeth | Dark History of Gazi Village

Hidden along the beautiful shores of Gazi, Msambweni in Kwale County – Kenya, lies one of the most chilling and mysterious historical sites in Africa. Locals call it the “House of Teeth”, a prison and court built in the mid-1800s by Arab traders during the era of the East African slave trade.

According to oral history, the floor of this ancient house was mixed with the teeth of slaves, convicts, and prisoners who suffered under brutal rule. Some were executed, others died in captivity, and their remains are said to have been used in construction. The building also served as a fort, prison, and court, making it a place of fear for generations.

Researchers and historians dispute whether the teeth were truly used, but the stories passed down by elders make this one of the darkest legends of the Swahili Coast. The site is now abandoned, but residents are calling for it to be recognized as a national heritage landmark, not just for Kenya, but for the world.

In this video, I explore:
✅ The history of Gazi Prison and its link to the slave trade.
✅ Why it is called the “House Built With Human Teeth.”
✅ Stories from locals about slavery, punishment, and buried secrets.
✅ Why the site matters for African history, identity, and memory.

This story goes beyond Kenya — it connects to the African diaspora in the USA, UK, Caribbean, Europe, and beyond, where descendants of enslaved Africans still seek to understand their past.
