Dona Paula Beach- Goa The haunting of this beautiful beach is what made me write today's post. This beach, located in Goa, India, is not only pretty, but also terrifying.           According to the legend, there was a young girl named, Paula Amaral de Souto-Maior,  who was a relative of the Portuguese viceroy. She had fallen in love with a local fisherman and had married him, even though her parents didn't agree. One day, her beloved husband went to the sea, to never return again. She waited at the shore for years and years and eventually, turned into a stone statue. The statue is said to be placed in the Cabo Chapel nearby.          Another lore states that the Viceroy had been informed about her affair with the fisherman, and stopped Paula from meeting him. She resisted, cried, and eventually took her life in the Arabian Sea to be with her lover. When the Viceroy got to know of this, he ordered for the construction of a statue of her, at the place from where she jumped. Many

  Bride's Pool- Hong Kong  This terrifying place is located in Shuen Wan, New Territories, Hong Kong. On seeing  this pool for the first time, one may not find anything much spooky. But, after dark, if you managed to stay near the pool, you might see the apparition of a bride, lurking in the waters of the pool. The local legend states that, an ancient bride-to-be was visiting her groom's village. She was being carried by 4 men(porters) on a sedan chair. As they were passing over the waterfall, which fed the Bride's Pool, one of the men slipped on a rock. Resulting in all of them falling into the pool, deep down. Unfortunately, due to the heavy weight of her Cheongsam(a traditional, tight-fitting dress), the bride drowned, along with her porters. The reports of many people taking their lives near this place were also found. The road sitting above this pool also has an equally terrifying history.The road has been coined, "The Deadly Curve" due to the large number of

  The Delhi Cantonment Hauntings Not all ghosts love haunting old buildings, hotels and forests. A good example is the Delhi Cantonment, which is considered to be one of the most beautiful parts of Delhi, India. It is a wonderful place to have a great time. On hearing for the first time, not many people could believe that this place is haunted.  The urban legend states that, after dark, one can see the apparition of a woman in a white sari standing on the side of the road. If she spots you driving, she'll probably ask you for a lift. If you deny her, she's gonna chase you at the same speed of the vehicle. Quite creepy to think about, right? It is said that this woman had died on the same road a long time ago and is still trying to reach her destination. Would you wanna use this road at night?

  Banff Springs Hotel, Canada This creepy hotel which I'm writing about today, is located in Banff, Alberta, Canada. This wonderful hotel, which is located in the middle of mountains, and has a beautiful scenery, also has a dark past. This hotel was burnt down in 1926 and it was rebuilt into a larger, and modern building in 1928. Many visitors have claimed to see the apparition of Sam the Bellman. Sam supposedly died in 1976. He loved the hotel so much that he said that he would return there, even after his death, which some believe, is true. Those who've had encounters with him, have described him as an elderly man in an old fashioned uniform. He still helps getting locked out guests into their rooms, getting guests to certain floors, performing wake-up calls and helps guests with their luggage even after his death! Many people consider him to be a friendly ghost. In this picture I found, Sam is seated in the center.  Now we're coming to the spooky part, there's a miss

  Dow Hill - West Bengal                         I can assure you that Dow Hill in West Bengal, India isn't the best place for you to hike in. When we try to account the horror history of India, the terrifying tales of these hills will always be mentioned. If you're faint-hearted, you should certainly avoid the 'Death Road" between the Dow-hill road and Forest office. Because, on this road, many loggers have reported to see the apparition of a young, headless boy who walks around and then suddenly disappears into the forest. Many tourists on entering, feel like they're being watched and followed. Some also hear footsteps following close behind.  After dark, many people have seen a shiny, red eye peering at them from the woods. To add to this, some people see the apparition of a woman in grey, following them in the deep dense woods . For the last shock, there's a haunted Boys' school near the woods. The school isn't any less creepy than the forest. Local

Hotel Cecil- The House of Killing This terrifying hotel which forced me to write today's post is located in Los Angeles, USA. The walls of the hotel housed many deaths and killers which was why it was known as the "House of Killing" .The Cecil hotel- renamed "Stay on Main" is no longer open to guests, but as of few years ago, there were a handful of long-term tenants still living there. Inside of this infamous hotel, at least 16 people had taken their own lives. Most of them had committed suicide by jumping off the building. Reports say that this hotel also housed 2 serial killers. In the late 1960s, a retiree living in one of the residential rooms was discovered dead in her room, apparently a victim of rape, physical assault and stabbing. Her murder was never solved. This hotel was the inspiration for the American horror story-Hotel due to all the mysterious deaths that have happened there. Would you wanna visit such a hotel?

Hairy Hands Of Dartmoor The Hairy Hands Of Dartmoor is a ghost legend which started to spread among the people of the remote area of Dartmoor in the English country of Devon when they started to notice an unusually high amount of road accidents taking place in the area in the early 20th century. According to this legend, the hairy Hands are a pair of disembodied hands,  which grab the handles or steering wheel of the vehicle and force the driver off the road. For some people, the Hands appear invisible.  In most instances,  the victims ran into a verge and survived. Their experiences remained a local curiosity until in June 1921, when E. H. Helby,  the medical officer of Dartmoor prison, was killed when he lost control of his motorcycle combination. Two young girls, who were the children of the prison governor,  and were riding in the sidecar, survived. All of the reported incidents have not occurred in moving vehicles.
