I m from a small town in India called Guwahati. This happened to me a year ago. I have a band called Floodgate, we were playing at an concert in the local medical college. Its called G.M.C. Well we all knew the grounds of the G.M.C boys hostel were rumored to be haunted and have been planning to check it out for ourselves since a long time. And this is what happened.
The concert got over at 11 pm. After chattin with some of the members of the other bands we finally were off ghost hunting. I still remember the full moon in the sky lighting our path. The boys hostel looked so creepy in the night. We kept out instruments in one of our friend’s room in the hotel.
By the time we finally were done eating and gathering up the torches and stuff it was about 1 am. We walked to the field which actually looked like a jungle because the grass was not trimmed since ages and there are lots of trees there. We have been told that there was a tree there where a boy had hung himself. This place used to be a dumping ground for dead bodies before the hostel was built there. We were stupid enough to go there after knowing all this.
We walked around there talking and cracking jokes until we heard it. It was faint but sounded like a young boy crying. We went in the direction of the voice and our drummer pointed towards something in the distance, the look on his face gave me the creeps. I was too scared to even look at what he was pointing at. Then I heard the guitarist Tikken screaming. I looked up and I saw the image of a boy hanging from the tree and below him some dark figure was sitting on the ground.
All of us were too scared to even move. I felt like something heavy had just fallen on my chest and was crushing it. I finally came to my senses and was about to run when I saw Tikken walking towards the dark figure. He looked like he was in a trance or something. Our drummer Simanta ran towards Tikken, grabbed his hand and started pulling him. But Tikken just kept goin on, dragging Simanta with him.
The bassist who was Tikken’s cousin looked at me and we both knew what to do. We ran towards Tikken and Simanta and the three of us started pulling Tikken away. It is then that the crying stopped and a terrible laughter rang out from the direction of the figure which was about 15 feet away from us.
I slapped Tikken hard twice or thrice before he came to his senses. Then the four of us ran like we never ran before. We ran for our lives and for our sanity. That night changed our lives. We tried to tell our parents, they wouldn’t even listen. We told our friends, they thought that it was a joke. But we know what we saw and we know something else too. There are forces which exist among us, dark sinister forces, so the next time you plan to go looking for Casper the friendly ghost, remember your not in a movie and things can get nasty.

You lucked out Abhishek, I have no doubts that if your friend had made it to that shadowy figure something terrible would have happened. You may have saved his life. I’ve had my scrapes with stupidity when exploring the supernatural, not taking it seriously and walking in unprepared is asking for trouble. But you were all unharmed and this is the stuff great song lyrics are made of.
Wow, incredible experience
I hope i don’t have brushes with the paranormal in my college like you did!
Your friend was really lucky and i’m glad you guys are okay. It is uncommon for spiritual entities to kill people but it is know to happen…
The black spirit you described was possibly a demon, but i more inclined to suggest a malevolent entity.
Perhaps try and check the historical background of the college. If a young boy committed suicide or not.
Take care man
(good luck with the band)
sincerely
Alpha
It is not bad but you could use a little more exciting details!
THAT VERY INTERESTING BUT ARE YOU SURE IT WASN’T SOMEONE ELSE TRYING TO SCARE YOU ? BECAUSE THIS SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE WEIRD YOU SAW A FIGURE BUT IT COULD BE SOMEONE TRYING TO SCARE YOU
YEAH I BELIEVE THERE IS EVIL FORCES….YOU JUST CANT MESS WITH THEM…BT WAT IF….BOO
you guys are lucky to survive… I guess your lucky enough to get on your senses before things gets worst for all of you…
wow that was really good. i would have ran at the first sight of anything….but then i wouldve waited cus i wouldnt want to be out there in the dark by myself..
