DON'T DARE TO GO IN!!

MOST HAUNTED PLACES IN INDIA

Grand Paradi Towers



Arguably the most famous haunted house in Mumbai is situated in one of the city’s most affluent areas. On the eighth floor of the Grand Paradi (sometimes referred to as the Grand Parrari) Towers in Kemps Corner a series of freakish suicides drew attention to what appeared to be a gruesome pattern of deaths and accidents in the building. In 2004 an elderly couple jumped out of the window of this apartment. Their children and their grandchild followed suit within the year. Residents who have lived in the building for 30 years tell us, “There was something unacceptable to our rational minds that a whole family, three generations, living in one house should commit suicide in the same way. There have been up to 20 cases of fatal accidents and suicides since the building was constructed in 1976. Many involving children and even a maid who either jumped or fell out of a window.”
After the series of unfortunate events the building society began to believe that paranormal forces were at work. “After the suicides of the family the building society decided to do a puja and a havan and since then everything has stopped but the flat remains unoccupied”.
Lists of suicide cases in the Grand Paradi towers:
» June 14, 1998: Senior citizens Vasudeo and Tara Dalal jumped of the balcony of their eighth floor apartment flowing harassment from their son Balkrishna (48) and daughter-in-law Sonal (45).
» March 28, 2005: Fearing conviction for the suicides of Vasudeo and Tara, Balkrishna and Sonal jumped off the balcony with their 19-year-old daughter Pooja on the day of the verdict.
» April 26, 2001: Narayan Ramchander (36), a domestic servant in the building, threatened to jump off the parapet of the 19th floor apartment in a 10-hour suicide drama after he was accused of stealing by his employers.
» Mr Jain, an employee with a brewery company, in his early forties committed suicide, sometime in 2000.


Bhangarh Palace Alwar, Rajhasthan



Rajasthan - Alwar / Bhangarh-Ajabgarh - Bhangarh ruins - Bhangarh is a place on way from Jaipur to Alwar city in Rajasthan state of India. Today Bhangarh is known for it's ruins where nobody dares to stay after sunset. Going to history we find that this town was established by Madho Singh, younger brother of King Akbar’s General Man Singh, in 1631. But the city seems to have been abandoned in a hurry some centuries later. As per local folks, due to some curse the whole town was vacated overnight. According to this curse It was also said that if the town was ever rediscovered, the township would not be found, but only temples would show up. True to the story, only temples dot the landscape and even far up on the mountains only shrines can be seen. People say that nobody returned from there who stayed there after dark. The biggest thing is that as per Govt. of India rules there has to be an office of Archaeology Survey of India (ASI) beside every historical structure in India. But even Government authorities couldn’t dare to open an office there and they opened their office about one kilometer away from the ruins of Bhangarh. Also ASI has put a signboard at Bhangarh saying, "Staying after sunset is strictly prohibited in this area." People who visit this place out of tourist interest say that there is a strange feeling in the atmosphere of Bhangarh, which causes sort of anxiety and restlessness. 

         SNDT, Girls College, Mumbai



In the backyard of SNDT, Girls College, Juhu are a few dilapidated structures, once used as staff toilets by the gardeners and other menial staff workers. Residents of the neighbouring building swear that post 1.30 am, sounds of a teacher thrashing her students can be heard clearly. 

"First the lessons start, and the teacher can be heard reciting mathematical tables, invariably followed by thrashing sounds and the wails of children. It's been practically heard by everyone in our building and goes on till the wee hours of the morning," alleged Riyaz Ansari, a local resident. 

"Once, out of curiosity, we formed a group of 10 boys to investigate the phenomena, but found only an eerie emptiness. By the time we reached back home, the cries from the structure had restarted and no one has ever dared to venture out there again," added Riyaz.

First Experience with the other side!

God exists, so does EVIL! Well this saying stands true as everyone of us at some point or other has experienced ‘something paranormal’ which is beyond explanation.
It wasn’t long after we shifted to our new hostel in Bangalore. I was studying engineering in one of the leading colleges there. The new hostel room was really great with attached toilets, balcony and very well furnished.
It was around 1 past midnight. My roommate had slept off as usual and I was glued watching some movie at that ungodly hour. I finished the movie and slept normally covering my head with the blanket.  After about 10 min when I had about to doze off, I had this very strange feeling of someone standing right next to my bed. I thought that my roommate or any some hostel mate standing besides my bed trying to play a prank on me or get some cd or charger. But even after 5 mins nothing happened and that feeling of someone standing right beside my bed grew stronger and stronger and at that point of time I started freaking out. Since I didn’t have enough courage to uncover my face and see what was there so I decided to lie still and not to move even an inch. After couple of minutes something came and sat right besides me on my bed. I could also feel the depression on my bed as if somebody is sitting there. I somehow gathered the courage to slide my hand outside my blanket and see if someone is really sitting there or not. To my surprise, there was no one there but that spot had a depression of someone sitting and it was extremely ‘COLD’. I immediately pulled my hand inside the blanket and I almost froze to hell and couldn’t even utter a word. Few minutes post that I could feel that strange depression going off when I decided to see what had just happened around me. I took my face off the blanket and there was no one in there, all the windows and doors were closed with my roommate in deep asleep.
Till date, I couldn’t figure out what it was or why I had that feeling and that too when I was in my sane state. Did I really make some kind of connection with the other side?

Scary Experience at our ancestral house


We had just moved into our ancestral house in Rajesthan during June 1999. We were unpacking all day, and by the evening, everyone was so tired they could barely walk. It was about 11:00 PM, and I went to the room that I shared with my sister to collapse into bed. I fell asleep right away.

Something woke me up at around 3:00 AM. I heard a knock on the window, and my heart began to pound. I tried to wake my sister, but she is a very heavy sleeper and would not stir.

I hid under the covers and fell asleep again, but woke up an hour later. All of a sudden I heard distinct voices coming from everywhere. I felt a great dizziness consuming my head and blacked out, seemingly for no reason. As I fell into the welcoming darkness, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a bloody face hovering at the window.

Though I have no explanation, nor did I see the face again, I will always remember that night.
