Well, if you are fond of ghost stories and haunted places then you must visit Putul Bari to experience some eerieness. Putul Bari meaning the “House of Dolls” is an old, dilapidated building situated near the Sovabazar jetty, not far from the haunted Nimtala Ghat. Now, the very thought of dolls, old houses covered and draped in dust and cobwebs, creates an uncanny feeling within us, isn’t it? Though the lower floors are inhabited till now, no one dares to visit the terrace (even in daytime) as it is believed to be haunted. The huge architectural Roman-style building ornamented with dolls of antique designs adorning the terrace just multiplies the spookiness of the place and will immediately give you jitters when you see it. One may sense shrill laughter or even clink of bangles and anklets during dark nights! Isn’t this just too scary to hear?
