Haunted Dussehra
There was a village in Uttarakhand named Bemni. Rahul was born in that village but, his parents took him to Bangalore when he was born. That village was very famous for Dussehra festival. After 12 years, Rahul went to his village to celebrate the festival with his family and his cousins. On the day of festival, he went to the fair with his family and his cousins. He was enjoying the fair, he ate sweets and different savory snacks when he suddenly noticed a shop in which black strips were sold, it was more surprising when he saw that in the opposite of every other shop black strips were sold. He felt quite strange as their were more people in the shops where black strips were sold compared to the other shops, he asked this to his cousins. His cousins replied that, during the Ravan Dahan children of the whole village tie the strip on their eyes when Rahul's parents called him for the Ravan Dahan, The Ravan was only burnt by the main priest. He saw that the people were standing in such a way like they were about to run when Rahul's father tied the black strip on his eyes. The main priest came chanted some mantras and burned the Ravan, as soon as the Ravan was burned the people started running towards their home,Rahul and his parents were also executing but, Rahul couldn't control himself, he removed the strip from his eyes and turned back. No one knows what he saw but when he looked up he got scared blood came out from his eyes and
ears and he died with in ten minutes. No one has ever known the reasons behind it, no one also hopes that any one will know the reasons behind it.
