Supernaturally Yours: We Went Exploring And Found Most Haunted Places In India

What might look like any other chawl that has been preserved well in today's time owing to the residents who still inhabit it, D'souza Chawl in Mahim has a lot of theories that lead us to believe that this might be one of the most haunted places in our vicinity. Stories suggest that a woman who was pulling out water from a boundary-less wall plunged to her death in that very well and that the well has been haunted ever since. 

According to the residents, there have been many sightings of a white apparition, who many feel is the lady's spirit. However, they also believe that the spirit just lurks around the area without harming anyone until it is sunlight and time for her to disappear into thin air.

Kuldhara is an village in Jaisalmer that has been abandoned since the 1800s for a curse that apparently cannot be lifted.  A sinful minister forcefully wanted to marry a beautiful villager and threatened her family to take hold of her. The villagers left the place leaving an undying spell so that no one could ever live or breed on this land. When checked for by the Paranormal Society of New Delhi, it was revealed that most stories by people are true and detectors and ghost-boxes have recorded voices of dead villagers and there have also been scratches on cars and footprints of children in the mud (that too, of an abandoned village).

Protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act of 1958, Agrasen Ki Baoli has been quite popular for it's haunted stories. It is a 60-meter long and 15-meter wide step well near Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. With no records to prove who built the well, people assume that it was built by King Agrasen during the Mahabharat era. Stories suggest that this well was once filled with black water that enticed people to jump into it and give up their lives. Ghost enthusiasts believe that the intensity of unnatural vibrations increases around you as you step down the 108 steep steps of the well. Even today, an evil spell is said to be cast on people who chose to loiter around here post-sunset.
