Top 12 Haunted Places In India

1. Bhangarh Fort, Rajasthan
Bhangarh fort is located in the ruined city of the same name, somewhere between Jaipur and Alwar, in Rajasthan. The place is so haunted by paranormal activities that even the Archaeological Survey of India has put up a board that restricts people from visiting the fort area before sunrise and after sunset. Legend has it that a tantric named Singhiya fell in love with a princess from the fort. He tried to use black magic to get her to fall in love with him, but it backfired and he died. Just before his death, he cursed the fort saying all who lived within it would die.
Today, villagers who live in the area continue to build roofless dwellings because everytime they do build a roof, it inexplicably collapses. People have also mysteriously gone missing after-hours inside the fort. It’s an hour and a half by road from Jaipur on the Jaipur-Alwar road.

2. Church of the Three Kings, Cansaulim, Goa

There is a scene in the Bollywood film ‘Bhoothnath’ set in the Three Kings church, situated atop a hill in Cansaulim, Goa. This church is reputedly haunted as it was the site of a meal given by one king who wanted to gain power over another two, and poisoned them. The story goes that the third king eventually killed himself also by poison, possibly out of guilt. The church is now haunted by the spirits of these three kings.

6. Tunnel No. 33, Shimla, Himachal Pradesh

Hill stations already have the reputation of being atmospheric, mysterious places due to their relative isolation and silence. Tunnel No. 33 (also referred to as Tunnel 103) is one of the tunnels on the Shimla-Kalka railway route. This is where the friendly ghost of Colonel Barog loiters, in search of friendly chats with people who take the tunnel. Colonel Barog was a railway engineer during the British Raj who committed suicide due to a gross miscalculation while the engineering work for the tunnel was ongoing. He was fined but the humiliation of his error and reprimand turned out to be too much for him. They say his spirit lingers on in the tunnel, albeit he’s the chattiest ghost around for miles!

Story Of Haunted LaLaurie Mansion, New Orleans, Louisiana

Image
IS THIS HOUSE WHERE SLAVES WERE TORTURED AT THE HANDS OF DELPHINE LALAURIE? If you've read anything about the ghosts and hauntings in New Orleans, there's no doubt that you've heard about the LaLaurie Mansion. It is one of the most popular stops on our  New Orleans Ghost Tours . Sometimes, people in the city won't even call it that, choosing to refer to 1140 Royal Street as "the Haunted House" instead. Fact is, in New Orleans the two are one and the same. Shows like American Horror Story have made an already infamous location that much more notorious. (Spoiler: be warned that producers took great creative liberties, as Hollywood tends to do.) The majority of filming was done at the Hermann-Grima House on St. Louis Street--probably for the best, honestly, as the mansion is rumored to be cursed.
