in the palace and female voices asking for help!

Kuldhara Village

Only a 5 and half hours drive to the west of

Jodhpur, you must make a trip to this village from

your 5-star hotels in Jodhpur City to experience

complete spookiness. The whole village is barren

today as if no life existed over there ever, and

also pleading voices of villagers still reverberate

here!

Nahargarh Fort

This ancient fort with sky-high walls

overlooking the Pink City, Jaipur was built by

Sawai Raja Man Singh for his queens. He was

so fond of this beautiful fort that even today

he haunts its alleys to look after it himself!

Jagatpura

The resemblance of witches roaming about on

the streets of Jagatpura with that of our classic

old haunted Indian movies is uncanny. Spirits

clad in white with long hair falling on their face

walking on the streets night after night asking

for help is a scene you won’t forget ever. But

what’s more spooky is that this place is still a

residential area and villagers live amongst spirits

in harmony!
