There was once a park in Bangalore which was home to an unseen presence that took the form of an unseen spirit that could take human form. While three kids were playing there one decided to head back home; their friends saw him sitting distantly on a bench far away but when they called out he quickly disappeared into thin air.
MG Road
As one of the city’s busiest streets, MG Road boasts shopping malls, restaurants, pubs, art galleries and showrooms – but its vibrant stretch also holds a chilling tale about an innocent woman who met an unexpected death near a call centre.
At night, her screams can be heard echoing through this haunted spot. Numerous visitors have reported depleted batteries, corrupted images and other unexplainable phenomena in the vicinity.
Naale Baa is an ancient folktale and its translation translates as “come tomorrow.” According to this legend, a bridal ghost roams the streets at night and if anyone opens their door she enters and steals away their husband – so residents would write “Naale Baa” outside their homes in order to dissuade the malevolent spirit from entering and take away their husbands. To ward off such spirits residents would write this phrase outside their houses in order to ward them off.
