Want to run into an experience that will turn your eyes bloodshot, you will scream but deny it but those screeches will be worth the adrenaline rush and goosebumps?
So, here is a list of the most haunted places in India, for you to enjoy this Halloween. Although, please be advised to go on your own risk. See:
1. Bhangarh Fort – Rajasthan
The ghost town of Bhangarh is not only one of the scariest, spookiest places you could possibly imagine, but one of the most haunted places in India.
With restricted entry to the fort before sunrise and after sunset by the government, this town is luring visitors even though there is a strict warning about how dangerous this place is.
The backstory behind the town is that a dark magician fell in love with the town’s princess and tried to cast a spell on her. On denial, the princess crushed the magician under a stone boulder. Before dying, he cursed the entire town and since then the town has become a haunted spot.
However, once the night falls and the darkness takes over, this place becomes deserted, leaving it prey to the supernatural.
2. Dumas Beach – Near Surat
Known for its black sand and mystical activities, Dumas beach is popular for many puzzling and unexplainable incidents to occur like strange whispers being heard or people disappearing at night.
If you are a brave heart, you can test the waters yourself by taking a midnight stroll along the beach with warnings asking you to not cross a certain line.
Before, the beach was used as a Hindu burial ground, the resting place of tortured souls. If you love visiting haunted places and want to feel the spookiness, this is your spot!
3. Dow Hill – Darjeeling
Not a very sought after place but definitely one of the most haunted places in India. Located in Kurseong, the boarding school is the centre of paranormal activities, with many ghost sightings.
With a stretch called the ‘death road’, people have seen a headless boy who suddenly appears and then disappears into the forests. Once you see him, he will not spare you in dreams too. People have committed suicide because they were depressed of being followed everywhere.
The entire place has an eerie and uncanny feeling.
4. D’Souza Chawl – Mumbai
Owing to D’Souza Chawl, Mahim in Mumbai has acquired the status of being the most haunted place in Mumbai. The residents tell that a woman fell into the water and died crying for help in the well. Therefore, ‘the lady of the well’ haunts the well area every night. There have been many sightings of a white apparition who many consider to be the lady.
5. Fern Hill Hotel – Ooty
Do you remember the popular horror movie Raaz? Watching this film was a spine tingling experience for its spectators. But something more horrifying happened behind the scenes, the cast and crew were victims to paranormal activities.
After checking in late at night, a troupe was kept awake by someone rearranging the furniture in the room above. With an early morning shoot, they tried calling reception but the phone was dead. Desperate for sleep, when they came to the reception to complain, they were informed that there was no floor above.
Many more unusual events happened post this incident, since then the hotel has been closed down.
