Hi Guys,
An interesting event happened a few days
ago.
My parents had
been on a 10 day trip to Varanasi and other holy places around. So, I was alone
in my home for those 10 days. The days went quick as I had some works to do and
I was also in charge of organizing a Quiz competition in my college. One
evening I went with my friend to take printouts of the posters. We came back by
8.30 pm and I went to his home. He is residing with some of my classmates in a
rented home. When I went there, power was not there and the whole room was
dark.
He asked me, ‘Karthi,
are you alone at your home?’ I said yes and he asked me, ‘Don’t you have any
fear?’
I said I was
used to it since my parents go to many functions frequently. He said, ‘I too
don’t have fear sleeping alone in my home (at his native), but here I am afraid’
I said, ‘Yeah, it’s
a big house and its quite bad in shape too. So, you may have fear’ He replied, ‘No
karthi, the size is not a problem. There is something is this house’ I was
shocked. I said ‘What???’
He said, ‘Yes
karthi, everyone here has experienced that’ I thought there was really some
ghost and got afraid. There was no power and my eyes were looking everywhere
around. I said, ‘Ok mate. I have an urgent work and need to go home. Bye!’
Next day, in
college I asked him what was there in his house? So he narrated his experience.
‘A few days back I was sleeping in
the second room and all my roommates were sleeping in the other room. I didn’t
sleep there as I was having cold and that room had two windows and cold breeze
would intensify my cough. I was sleeping quite well until 2 am.
‘I woke up by 2 am and went to the
bathroom. I came back to the room and I saw that someone was standing outside
the hall window (which is visible from the bedroom). I went to hall and asked
who it was. There was no reply. I came back and lay down.
‘Two minutes later the person was
knocking the window heavily. I went to the hall and shouted who he was. There
was no reply for some time. I switched on the light, but the person was
invisible. I switched off the light and then I heard a reply “Why are you
concerned about who I am. Go and Sleep”. I went back and covered my face with
bed sheet and slept’
I was expecting
a big story and when he finished his narration, I was furious. A few days later
the whole story spread in my class and he got famous with his ghost encounter.
I and few of my friends sat with him and convinced him that it was not a ghost.
He doesn’t believe and says that he is sure that it was a ghost.
Here are a few
reasons put forth my me and my friends
- It might have been a thief. My
friend says that the door to the balcony was locked and there is no way a thief
may come. We say that there are lots other places to climb or fall other than
the door.
- The house owner is a drunkard.
His roommates say that he often drinks and babbles. There are lots of
possibilities that it was him as he has a key too.
- We asked him why he didn’t
awaken others and call for help. He came with the greatest explanation. I didn’t
do anything to the ghost and so I knew that the ghost would not do anything to
me.
- The other possibility is that
it was a dream. But he says that it was real and he remembers things, but half
his explanations look imaginary.
Half his roommates are more afraid than him and now they are having
sleepless nights and this story has become a big comedy in my class with lot of
imaginations flowing in.
Happy Reading!!!
