"Most Haunted Places in India"
Ragini MMS 2's 'Patwardhan Villa',
I picked up the subject of my interest, that forced me to
search and know more about the most haunted places really(!) in India.
Some places are truly declared as haunted by the Govt. though
with doubts and no real evidences but only with the incidents of the past.

Amidst the never ending debate of whether or not there are
things paranormal that exist alongside us; there is no denying
the fact that there are people who have had spooky experiences.
But ghosts and apparitions do not exist everywhere, that's why most
of us do not encounter them. But there are places deemed haunted,
which are believed to be the home of these restless souls, some
malicious, some indifferent. In India there is a whole city which is
haunted, forget about ancient castles and old British bunglows.
Here's is a list of 20 places which have been declared
eerie and creepy by experts.
1.
Dumas Beach, Gujarat
It was a burning ghat at one point of time and even now strange cries
and whispers can be heard by morning walkers and tourists.
