Happy Halloween: India’s ‘haunted’ heritage that keeps legends alive all year 
India’s rich heritage is steeped in legends, some of which are eerily haunted. From Delhi’s Bhuli Bhatiyari Ka Mahal and Madhya Pradesh’s Garh Kundar Fort to Pune’s Shaniwar Wada and Bhangarh Fort in Rajasthan, tales of restless spirits and tragic histories abound. The Andaman Islands’ Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Island and Srinagar’s Pari Mahal add to the spectral mystique, alongside Hyderabad’s Golconda Fort, echoing with centuries-old battles and lost lives. These stories, rooted in history, intrigue, and folklore, keep India’s haunted reputation alive all year, making it the perfect time for Halloween reflections.
