Dark tourism consists of destinations related in some way to death, suffering and the macabre. The different attractions and destinations that fit into this segment form sub-segments of it, such as cemeterial tourism, war tourism and disaster tourism, this last one will be the focus of this research. Disaster tourism occurs when tourists visit a place where tragedy has occurred, and its traces and consequences are still visible. Based on the premise that this type of tourism can be disturbing and apparently does not prioritize leisure, as other tourist segments do, the objective of this research is to investigate the interrelationships between cognitive and affective factors capable of influencing people to visit disaster tourism destinations. In accordance with the study objective, it was adapted the conceptual model of factors that influence the intention to revisit a dark destination, emphasizing that the model was adequated for the reality of disaster tourism. The research is defined as hypothetical-deductive, descriptive-exploratory, and has a quantitative analysis through the use of SPSS and AMOS software version 22.0. It’s expected to discover how much cognitive and affective factors motivate the interest in visiting this tourist sub-segment, as well as defining the type of tourists who are interested in it.
