An unknown terrifying fact

 

India, a country with its rich history, is certainly filled with mysteries. This is also where you' ll find legends and folktales about paranormal activities. Are these true - Nobody knows. Does anyone believe in them ? - Yes, there are many. Unknown ghosts and deadly spirits are the points of discussion at least once in a lifetime for everyone. Resembling these flickers with some places has been the part and parcel of the stories. Forts, Railway stations, forests haunted houses, schools, colleges, hills,mountains and lot more places seem to have reported some or the other supernatural incidents. One such story is that of Kurseong Dow Hill. 

Kurseong, a hill station situated in Darjeeling, West Bengal, is blessed with a pleasant climate for the entire year. Locally known as "kharsang", it means "Land of the White Orchids" in Lepacha language. this town at one time was famous for schools and tourism. Though the missionary schools and small guest-houses eke out a meagre existence today,Kurseong is also called the "Good Castle' by the Tibetans. It is the site of an outpost of Tibetan religious life-a small lamasery. This quiet town is aware of the mystery associated with this beautiful location. This place secures its position in the list of most haunted destinations. 

Yes, you guessed it right... the place is stated to be one of the most haunted places in India. It is said that this is a place of many murders. Many locals have heard footsteps in the Victoria Boys School especially when the school is closed for the long holiday from December to March. There are no foot marks found, neither of humans nor of animals.But the footsteps are heard.  

Countless numbers of parnanormal behaviour and murder have been reported near the dark, strange and haunted forests. They seem to be mysterious in their own way. On the stretch between the Kurseong Dow-Hill road and Forest office, woodcutters claim to have seen a headless young boy walking and disappearing in the trees. Even the thought of this gives an eerie feeling. 

The apparition walks down the road and then slips into the woods. Locals feel as if they are being watched and followed. People here seem to have an uncanny, depressive feeling. However, no proof of any super natural activity has been found. Some say it's true while other say these are just rumours. But, the fact remains that the miserable feeling of the people has been so intense that it has led to multiple suicides.

The natural disaster in Uttarakhand

The natural disaster in Uttarakhand "Disaster" had been merely a word for me in the pages of dictionary. On 15th June 2013, I was stunned and horrified with the news of the natural calamity that struck the ill fated state of Uttarakhand in North India. The recent natural calamity has shown us what actually a "Disaster" is. On that day there were cloud bursts in various areas of Uttarakhand. The torrential downpour in various parts of the hilly region washed down soil along with silt, sand, stone and boulders. The cloud burst caused enormous quantity of water to flow down the hilly slope and hilly springs joining the main river of the area, the Alakananda. As it is, even during normal time, hilly rivers flow at a high speed. Due to cloud bursts there are flash floods when enormous quantity of water tries to flow out in a short span of time. The speed of water flow increases to much more than the normal. The water level in the river gorge rises, carrying away silt, sa...
