Far from being just another website for ghost story writers,

Ghoststoriesworld is a conception that was e initialized back in 2007. The team of ghost story aficionados who started the journey conducted a worldwide research, only to find out that the love for ghost stories is not exclusive to the Indians only, but they are loved by all! In childhood, children love listening to ghost stories while after growing up, people often face situations which can be called ‘inexplicable’ or ‘un-natural’. Presently, the team is busy presenting the mysteries scattering all over India, from black magic.

Since its inception, the team of Ghoststoriesworld have been spending many valuable hours to find out the best from authentic yet amateur ghost story writers, who either have many real paranormal experiences to share, or has a knack for the spooky. With a passion to make one and all feel the real thrill, the team now wants to create a big archive, where everyone can share and find their experiences, as well as get hold of popular stories, real incidents and accounts for the legends.

As a spokesperson from the website points out, of all the countries in the world, India is a country with too many questions, myths and legends, but very few answers and real scientific explanations. While certain spots have been tagged and branded as notoriously ‘possessed’, there are many places which are not well-known, yet by any means, less creepy. While very few know how haunted the most Haunted Places in India are, the legends linked with their story do give a feeling that ‘they’ do exist!

As for example, the Ramoji film city in Hyderabad is a well known shooting spot, as well as a center of tourist attraction. But what people seldom know is, many hotels within its premised are reportedly haunted. So this is a shining example that shows that spirits and ghosts do not necessarily reside in ancient buildings and ruins only. Locals believe that given that the film city is made on the land of Hyderabadi Nizams, the place is ghostly. Very frequently, instances of unknown door knocks, mysterious shadows, appearance and disappearance of spooky figures have been reported.
Again, the local legend of the ghost lights, Aleya, which is typically seen in the marshes of Bengal, also deserves attention. They can be spotted very frequently by the fishermen, who take it to be a sign of existence of spirits. It is locally believed that the ‘sign’ is left by fishermen who have already lost their lives in those regions. The real cause of the occurrence of bright lights, have not yet been furnished with sufficient (read scientific) explanations.

Now speaking of black magic, people around the world are often made to believe that India is the cradle of magic in different forms. A spokesperson from Ghoststoriesworld reminds that people often speak of white magic and black magic, often without having any idea on what can they actually be. As presumed, white magic enable’s many positive changes in the life of the person on whom it is being cast. Such welcome changes include prosperity, success in love, weight loss and others. On the other hand, black magic is meant to bring harm.

What very few know is, the color ‘black’ in magic actually traces its origin to the magics performed by Egyptians. The fertile soil found on the banks of the river Nile was black, which stood in stark contrast to the barren, reddish sand of the desert that surrounded it. So, the shade of black was actually associated with good forces. Again, since the skin tones of the people in the Caribbean, Asia and Africa k magic were black, the magic they performed was called black magic. Hence the intention and not the color of the magic should decide the result.

One can learn many such facts from the website.
