Encased within the partly ruined walls, the Bhangarh Fort is home to the remains of archaic temples, havelis, gardens and banyan trees. The Bhangarh fort is a living history of numerous spine-chilling legendary stories and myths, most of which are considered true by the locals. Among these, the two most renowned legends are that of princess Ratnavati and the Satanist Singhia who fell in love with her and of Guru Balu Nath’s curse.
Even after being an extremely famous tourist spot, the fort has no provision of electricity, making the place more hideous and the eerie stories seem to appear more real. All these elements combine together to make this place a perfect one for the ghost busters and curious souls. These ghost catchers claim to have experienced spooky paranormal activities during the night hours.
But what makes people travel all the way to this place just to see the ruins of a once-a-beautiful fort? The spookiness of this place is what entices people to come here and try to explore whether all the stories are true or not.
These mystifying stories attract the ghost hunters, tourists, scientists and archaeologists from around the world, making Bhangarh the only ‘legally’ haunted place in India. The area remains closed after dark till the sunrise. But the restrictions have not stopped people from trespassing this forbidden area. The stories related to this place are multifaceted. One is through the eyes of the adventure lovers who flock this place because of the stories that float over the web and the other is through the point of view of the locals that live around Bhangarh.
The stories from the past aren’t where the mystery of this fort ends. There have been rumours of trespassers getting hurt by the “unknowns” at Bhangarh. One such story is of a boy who decided to spend a night at this fort, with two of his friends. While meandering around, he fell into a well at the fort. Even after being saved by his friends, all three died in an accident on their way to the hospital.
So, are you game for an adventure that will turn your eyes bloodshot whenever you think about that night?
