You must have heard about the legend of Bhangarh, which is counted among the top 20 real haunted places in India. Everything in Bhangarh is scary. According to ASI (Archaeological Survey of India), tourists should not wander around the fort ruins after sunset. This is a sign of how haunted Bhangarh Fort really is.

The story is certainly interesting and even more fascinating are the stories of people who have been there and experienced the eeriness in the fort's aura. You should visit the fort and find out how much of the story is true.
2. Tunnel no. 33, Shimla
A train ride in Shimla sounds like an adventure! But what if a haunted tunnel stands in the way? Not so much fun anymore, huh?
Behind the beauty of Shimla, the Queen of Hill Stations lies Tunnel No. 33. It is considered to be one of the most haunted places in Shimla and also in India. The Kalka-Shimla route has a tunnel that takes more than 2 minutes. When you get off, you will reach Barog station. It's a truly unique experience, but being informed in advance is always better.
Tunnel 33 in Shimla is named after Colonel Barog, whose ghost is believed to haunt there. He was a railway engineer in 1898 and was instructed to build the tunnel on time. After his calculations, he ordered the workers to start drilling holes into the mountain from both sides. After the failed attempt, he was released and fined by the government. The workers were also raging, which depressed him and made him feel humiliated.
People say he was put out of his misery while walking his dog. The dog tried to get people's attention, but it was too late. The colonel was buried inside this incomplete tunnel to pay his respects.
Locals say he never left this place and still haunts the tunnel. your thoughts?
3. Dow Hills, West Bengal
Tourists visiting this hill station of Darjeeling might not know about it! Dow Hill is a lesser-known haunted place in India and is associated with ghost stories. This place also has a lot of paranormal stuff.
The small stretch of road between Dow Hill and the Forest Office is called DEATH ROAD. Lumberjacks walking along the road and disappearing into the forest saw a young headless boy. Ahhh!
Not only that, but people also feel that they are being watched and followed by a woman in a gray dress. The locals also noticed a red eye staring at them. Some people went crazy and some even committed suicide after going to this forest.
Another shock! Brace yourself! There is a haunted boys' school near the forest, which is also said to be haunted. Local residents feel a similar atmosphere to the forest near this school. Loud whispering and footsteps could be heard from December to March (it is closed at this time).
If you "think" you're brave, visit Dow Hill!
