This kind of rumours spread everytime at most of the places. Frens,there r numbers of films and stories on ghosts.some even said they have seen the ghosts. Have u ever seen one?Do u believe in ghosts?Have u idea and thinking have been changed after u join medical college and doing dissections? |
though i daresay i fear only the living things if any, it sometimes so happens that the idea of ghost augments the palpitation with unknown fear.
it was in our community diagnosis field that we suffered (i'd rather say enjoyed) our first night in the then abandoned house which we had hired with the feeling of ghosts among us. when we entered the house in the evning, there were three pots kept in serial of their sizes i.e. a big dekchi, a plate and a bowl. there was nothing else in the room except some rags in the corner. one of our friends suddenly came up with the idea that ghosts are served food in this fashion. we looked at each pots, they were empty except for dark tinges on the floor. many of us found nothing against that bizzare idea and one or two were so impringnated with this stuff that they rejected going to that room.
funny and simple though, the truth that was discovered next day from the land lady was that they were kept to collect the leaking water during raining.
