PAPA`S PARANORMAL TALES

A heady mix of paranormal tales from India to give the reader goose-bumps, handed down verbally from generation to generation.  


Supernatural sightings of female demons, disguised as lovely women, set out to lure unsuspecting young men to their death. Reincarnated spirits born again, ghostly apparitions of dead relatives, haunted houses, grave robbers and spooks arising from their tombs at the stroke of mid-night, local superstition and myths form part of the anecdotes.

These collected stories, were always related to pass the time before going to bed in the days when there were no TVs or cyber activities to serve as distractions. The narrator often was the family patriarch and the audience were generally family members and any visiting guests.  The selected settings for listening to the stories were ideal – either on house terraces or front yards of homes amidst the dark shadows of the palms and other trees lit only by starlight or moonlight.


Silence reigned except for the occasional sounds of the hooting of resident owls from abandoned old houses adding to the eerie atmosphere.
