Wake Up


The curtains were moving as the night gleamed at me. I was trying to sleep at my relative's place back in Koida, Odisha. I was working at the mines and had an early morning shift. Suddenly, at around 2 AM, I felt like I saw someone behind the curtains. The lights were switched off, but a shadow was visible due to the faint light coming from the corridor light.

I got a bit startled and nervous, so I drank some water and tried to go back to sleep. A little later, I could see someone moving all over the place like a black shadow running. Then, I felt someone pushing my body out of the cot and saw a face close to me asking me to wake up. As I looked at the face, it just faded away with the darkness, but I could clearly remember its touch right on my chest.

As soon as it was dawn, I woke up and fled from the place. My relatives mentioned a haunted neighborhood that resulted in some weird encounters of a shadow trying to wake up people who are fast asleep.

ଆମେ ହାଲି କାଲି ଗଲିରେ ଗୋଟେ ନୂତନ ଘରକୁ ସଂଚାର କରିଥିଲୁ। ଆମ ମାଲିକ ଆମକୁ ଜଣାଇଥିଲେ ଯେ ଘରର ଗୋଟେ ନିର୍ଦ୍ଦିଷ୍ଟ କକ୍ଷକୁ ଏଢାଇବା ଆବଶ୍ୟକ। ସେହି କକ୍ଷକୁ ଆମେ ଅତିରିକ୍ତ ଖାଦ୍ୟସାମଗ୍ରୀ ଏବଂ ପୁରୁଣା ଟିକିଆ ପାଇଁ ଗୋଦାମ ଘର ଭାବରେ ବ୍ୟବହାର କରୁଥିଲୁ। ଏକ ଦିନ ବେଳକୁ, ମୁଁ ଅସୁସ୍ଥ ଅନୁଭବ କରୁଥିଲି ଏବଂ ଘରର ସେହି କକ୍ଷର ଦ୍ୱାରକୁ ତାଳା ଲଗାଇବାକୁ ଭୁଲିଯାଇଥିଲି। ଘୁମେ ଥିବାବେଳେ, ମୁଁ ଆକସ୍ମିକ ଜାଗିଗଲି ଏବଂ ଦେଖିଲି ଯେ ଗୋଟିଏ ବୃଦ୍ଧା ମୋର ଖଟିଆର ପାର୍ଶ୍ୱରେ ବସିଛନ୍ତି ଏବଂ ମୋତେ ତକି ରହିଛନ୍ତି। ମୁଁ ଭୟରେ ଜଡ଼ ହୋଇ ଶାନ୍ତ ରହିବାକୁ ଚେଷ୍ଟା କଲି। ମୋ ମନର ଭୟ ସତ୍ତେ, ମୁଁ ଆଖି ବନ୍ଦ କରି ସ୍ୱରକୁ ଦମାଇ ରଖିବାକୁ ସକ୍ଷମ ହେଲି। ମୁଁ ଏକ ତୀବ୍ର ମତଲାହାଟିର ଲହର ଅନୁଭବ କଲି ଏବଂ ଭୟରେ ମୋର ମୂତ୍ର ଛାଡ଼ିଦେଲି। ଲାଗୁଥିଲା ଯେ ଅନ୍ଧକାର ମୋର ଆତ୍ମାକୁ ମାଡ଼ି ଯାଉଛି, ଏବଂ ମୋର ଶରୀର ଅନିୟନ୍ତ୍ରିତ ଭାବେ କାପୁଥିଲା। ସଉଭାଗ୍ୟବଶତଃ, ଘଣ୍ଟି ବାଜିଗଲା, ଯାହା ମୋତେ ସେଇ ଭୟଙ୍କର ଅନୁଭବରୁ ମୁକ୍ତି ଦେଲା। ମୋର ପଡ଼ୋଶି ଆସିଥିଲେ ଚାରି ପାଇଁ ଚାହିଁବାକୁ। ସେଇ ବିଚ୍ଛେଦ କିଛି ମୁହୁର୍ତ୍ତ ପାଇଁ ସାନ୍ତ୍ବନା ଦେଇଲା, ଏବଂ ସେହି ମହିଳା ହରାଇ ଯାଇଥିଲେ। ମୁଁ ତଡ଼କାରେ ଘରୁ ବାହାରି ଗଲି ଏବଂ ପଛରୁ ଦ୍ୱାରକୁ ତାଳା ଲଗାଇଦେଲି। ସେଇ ରାତିରେ, ମୋ ସ୍ୱାମୀ ଏବଂ ମୁଁ ଏକ ଯାତ୍ରା ପାଇଁ ବାହାରିଲୁ, ଏବଂ କିଛି ଦିନ ପାଇଁ ଆମ...

A Savage Village

    Our adventure trip, a group of friends and I, began in a vehicle unlike any other – mine. This marvel of engineering could be both pulled and pushed, adapting to the demands of the terrain. It resembled a monstrous GMC Hummer EV Edition, boasting a staggering 1000 horsepower and a mind-boggling 11,500 lb-ft of torque. Our destination: a remote, ancient village nestled on the fringes of the Bengal border. The journey was a nightmare from the outset. The roads, mere tracks through shifting sand dunes, twisted and turned like a labyrinth as we penetrated the village. The inhabitants, diminutive and unsettling with their pointed teeth, watched our arrival with palpable hostility. Then, disaster struck. One of them, with a chilling ferocity, bit our beloved dog, Toby, inflicting a gruesome wound. Panic seized us. Dr. Dev Kumar, the village veterinarian, resided in a dilapidated cottage at the maze's end. We had to reach him. As we pressed on, the sky turned an omino...
