An Old Tree By The Road

I had lost my way while returning from my friend's place in Jatani, Odisha. I took a less-maintained, muddy road, riding my bicycle. I could see an old, tall banyan tree in the distance. As I approached, I noticed a rope hanging with an empty loop, swinging vigorously as if someone had recently been using it. The tree's branches were very thick and bushy.

As it was nearly sunset, the darkness was playing tricks on my eyes. I occasionally thought I saw faces in the branches, but dismissed them as illusions created by the light. Suddenly, I felt as if someone was grabbing me from behind. I couldn't see anyone, but the sensation was real. I started chanting holy mantras and quickened my pace. When I looked back, I saw someone hanging from the rope, their hair longer than usual, staring directly at me.

Horrified, I lost control and started running. I saw a man covered in a dark shawl, standing and waving at me to come closer. As I approached, I realized they were just crows perched on a large staff. There was no man.

I fled the area and finally escaped the banyan tree's vicinity. That night, I had disturbing dreams of people being burned and stabbed to death. When I asked my friend about the place, he revealed that many unexplained murders had occurred there, and a female spirit tormented passersby.

भूता गप्पा : कमरे के बाहर जो था…(पटना स्टोरीज )

मैं उन दिनों हॉस्टल में दोस्तों के साथ खूब मस्ती किया करता था। कॉलेज के दिन वैसे भी बड़े मज़ेदार होते हैं। दोस्तों का झुंड हमेशा साथ रहता, न समय की परवाह होती, न किसी रोक-टोक की चिंता। बेफिक्री और हँसी के धुएँ से पूरा कैंपस गूंजता रहता। एक रात, हम सब राजू के कमरे में जमा थे। ओल्ड मंक की आखिरी बूंद तक सब कुछ खत्म हो गया। तभी किसी ने कहा, "अरे, मेरे बेड के नीचे एक बोतल है… लेकिन उसके लिए स्टोर रूम से होकर जाना पड़ेगा, जहाँ खिड़कियों से अजीब आवाजें आती हैं।" किसी जूनियर को भेजने की बात चली। मैं पहले थोड़ा हिचकिचाया, फिर हँसते हुए मान गया। "क्या होगा ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा? कोई आवाज़ तो यही लोग निकालेंगे।" जैसे ही मैं निकला, हमारे ग्रुप का एक सीनियर चुपचाप मेरे पीछे हो लिया और दरवाज़े के पीछे छिप गया। जब मैं स्टोर रूम पहुँचा, तो मुस्कुराते हुए पीछे मुड़ा क्योंकि मुझे लगा कोई आवाज़ जरूर लगाएगा। उन दिनों किसी के पास मोबाइल नहीं था। हॉस्टल में जगह-जगह एक-दो लैंडलाइन फोन लगे थे। लेकिन मुझे स्टोर रूम के अंदर से घंटी की आवाज़ सुनाई दी। अजीब बात यह थी कि वहां कभी फोन र...

The Morgue Shift: A Chilling Night at IGH Hospital, Rourkela

There are jobs that demand courage—not just of the body, but of the mind. Being a nurse is one such job, and sometimes, the fear doesn’t come from the diagnosis or the pain—it comes from silence, from shadows, and from the unseen. This is a true account of a night shift I will never forget. Festival Night. Empty Corridors. One Dead Body. It was a festive evening in Rourkela, and most of the hospital staff had taken leave or left early. I was on duty at IGH Hospital as a male nurse. Late at night, I received the responsibility of transporting a deceased patient to the morgue—alone. Usually, someone from the morgue team assists with the process. But that night, there was no one available. I was told a security guard would be present near the morgue to help, if needed. With no other option, I took a stretcher and began the slow, solitary walk through the long, dimly lit hospital corridor. The Eyes in the Dark The hallway was quieter than usual, with only the occasional bark of a dog or a ...
