In this thesis, we explore how spacetime exhibits peculiar properties when subjected to the rules of quantum mechanics. These rules are naturally implemented at the level of semi-classical physics, where the dynamical nature of the spacetime metric is neglected. In particular, we explore how quantum effects modify some of the fundamental statements of General Relativity, ranging from different possible solutions, such as traversable wormholes and time machines, to some of the more foundational conjectures, with an emphasis on the one of cosmic censorship.
