“Believe it or not but ghosts exists and I can prove”


Usually, after dinner, all of we friends gather in somebody’s room and discuss any topic (studies, trips, campus life, girls, teachers, etc.). But on one unusual day the topic was about ghosts and spirits. I don’t know how it came up, but God it was damn memorable night!

Adi (what we call Aditya in short) narrated us many ghost stories, in fact he called them real life incident and he gave that touch by relating every story to his ancestors. Nobody knows whether they were real or fake, but they were truly shocking and scary. One after another, stories after stories, Oh God he has a great stock.

Govil (Ankit Govil) too started narrating the stories one after another as if trying to prove that he is no less than Adi. All others had very less to speak and so enjoyed listening to both of them.

A ghostly atmosphere was created. None was in a funny mood. We all were serious. And in this serious mood Lokesh innocently expressed his desire to call a spirit. “…are you drunk,…have you gone mad,…go to sleep…shut up f*****…”, were the things he had to hear by us. But he was serious.

At last I supported him. “Hey guys, cool down, Lokesh is not talking bullshit. I am sure that ghosts do come but it’s difficult and it requires lots of concentration”. Everyone was quite for a minute. None of us knew what to say. We just kept staring each other. The silence was broken by Reddy, ‘its okay, we can try”.


The main problem was whose ghost you are going to call. He should have died recently and he should be familiar to all who are going to call him. Don’t laugh, because we decided to call Amrish Puri’s (a well know Bollywood star who had died recently) spirit.

That night when everyone slept, we made a plan chit in Bhamri’s room. As we started, some of my friends left as they were afraid, I wont name them. The person who concentrated by keeping the finger on the bowl were me, Lokesh and Bhamri. Jaspreet, Pranjal and Ashok and Lokeshwar were sitting on the bed,

We started, for about 20 minutes we sat with our eyes closed thinking about Amrish Puri. I tried my best to think only about him, but it was difficult. When you close your eyes many things come in your mind. So nothing happened and we opened our eyes.

“Why didn’t it come?” asked Ashok. “Probably due to less concentration”, and as I said this I looked towards Lokesh and Bhamri. They said some other things too came in their mind while thinking about Amrish Puri,

And to worsen Pranjal said that he was afraid so he was thinking about God and reciting prayers in his mind.
So how come any spirit come, even if they want to?

Now when we look back, it seems quite funny. But I tell you, that night was quite frightening, at least for some and I have strong evidence for that.

This incident at least made us know who all are afraid by ghosts among us.
