How’s it going YouTube.
India is a country that is full of culture, history and there is definitely not a shortage
of mysterious places.
From a place where birds randomly fall to their doom to a creepy beach where scary whispers
can be heard, India is for sure a country that is surrounded with mystery and unexplanale
events.
So let’s dive right into our list of the top 10 mysterious places in India.
The river that sucks people in brings us to number 10.
I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t think I’ll be jumping in these waters for
a quick dip.
The river is called Khooni Nadi river and it is also infamously known as the Bloody
River and I’ll tell you why.
There are so many stories about people getting sucked into the water and never seen or heard
from again.
Even if you don’t believe in the supernatural, I think it’s safe to say that you don’t
need to test these waters out for yourself.
This river is actually referred to as one of the most dangerous places in India and
the fact that the bodies that have been lost in this river are never recovered is beyond
creepy.
So you’re telling me that there is a river that basically swallows people and their bodies
are never found again…Would you guys risk it and go swimming here?
Skeleton lake takes us over to number 9.
Every year as the ice melts in Roopkund, a glacial lake that is located 16,500 feet above
sea level will have hundreds of human skeletons floating on the surface.
This lake was rediscovered back in 1942 by a forest ranger and the skeletons have still
remained a mystery.
Nobody knows for sure who these people were and what they were doing in the unlivable
conditions of the Himalayas.
According to a local legend, the skeletal remains are of a King, his pregnant wife and
hundreds of servants who were heading towards a shrine during a pilgrimage.
However, before they reached their destination, they were caught in a deadly hailstorm.
Some people say that these bones still have human flesh on them so that’s what makes
skeleton lake a huge mystery even till this day.
Scary whispers are in at number 8.
Dumas beach is located in Gujarat and it is known as the third most haunted place in India.
Now normally, beaches are a relaxing place with sun, sand, and water.
Sure, this beach has all three of those things but Dumas beach is also known for its paranormal
activity.
It used to be the site of a burial ground for several years so a lot of people believe
that it is haunted by a lot of spirits with unfinished business.
If you visit this beach at night, you will hear whispers of people talking when no one
is around you.
There are also reports of people going missing on this beach and their bodies are never recovered.
The sand is black and people believe its because many dead bodies were cremated here and when
the ashes mix with the sea, you get black sand.
I think I’ll save my suntanning for another beach.
The legend of bullet Babe rides its way into number 7.
A man riding his motorcycle got into a fatal accident back in 1992.
The next day, the police took ownership of his motorcycle and they took it to the nearest
police station.
But the next day, they discovered that the motorcycle was gone and it was found later
that same day at the crash site.
The police kept bringing the motorcycle back to the police station but it mysteriously
kept returning to the site where its original owner had died.
The locals took this as a miracle and they built a temple around the bike.
Since then, this site has been a place of worship and they believe that the spirit of
the man protects this area and prevents accidents from occurring here.
Next up in at number 6 we have twins.
In the tiny village of Kodinhi, 2000 families are living here and they have over 450 pairs
of twins.
This is by far one of the strangest and most mysterious villages in South India.
It’s so mysterious that it actually caught the attention of an international science
team who went to investigate it.
The people living in this village have an unusual tendency to have a birth with twins.
The global average is about 6 twins per 1000 births but in this small village the odds
are 42 of every 1000 births.
Some people have theorized that there is a certain chemical in the water that increase
your chances of conceiving twins but it hasn’t been conclusive.
So, I guess all of these twins will just remain as one of life’s biggest mysteries.
The floating pillar floats its way into number 5.
The Lepakshi temple in India is a very unusual and mysterious place.
The temple is actually really beautiful but out of its 70 pillars, there is one that mysteriously
hangs from the ceiling without any form of support.
Lots of people travel to this temple and attempt to pass thin objects under the pillar because
they believe that it will bring prosperity into their lives.
A British engineer tried to logically explain why this pillar was floating but, in the process,
he dislodged it and he realized that if he tried to move it any further, he could cause
permanent damage to the entire temple.
So if it isn’t broken don’t try to fix it…
Number 4 we have birds committing suicide.
This mysterious phenomenon is actually pretty depressing and dark.
In the Jatinga Village, several migratory birds flying over here just suddenly drop
dead.
This massive bird suicide is more likely to happen during the hours of 6pm and 9:30pm,
when the moon isn’t out during the months of September and October.
And I’m not talking about five or ten birds.
Hundreds of birds plummet to their deaths by crashing into buildings and trees and since
birds aren’t known to be suicidal, this strange phenomenon has baffled experts.
For many years, the locals believe that evil spirits living in the skies are responsible
for bringing down the birds but we still don’t have an explanation for this massive bird
suicide.
A levitating stone comes floating onto this list in at number 3.
The Hazrat Qamar Ali Darvesh Shrine is not your typical shrine.
This place is actually pretty mysterious because it is known for a special stone that weighs
70kg and can only be lifted by one way.
In order to lift this special rock, you need to gather 11 people around the stone and touch
it with your fingertips.
Once the 11 people loudly call out the name of the saint who placed a curse on it, the
stone will magically rise up in the air.
Lots of people have attempted to lift this stone other ways but they’ve all failed.
According to the legend, a saint placed a curse on this stone that was used for body
building about 800 years ago.
Aleya ghost lights bring us to number 2.
The swamps in Bengal have been haunted by mysterious lights that can be seen floating
around in the darkness.
These strange lights are known as the Aleya Ghost Lights.
The locals say that these lights are the spirits of dead fisherman who lost there way in the
dark swamps and eventually died.
But it is also believed that if you see these lights and follow them into the darkness,
you will never be seen again.
Most people think that you will die if you follow these lights while others say that
you will become insane and never recover.
But then again, no one has lived to tell their story so if you see mystical lights in the
Bengali swamp area, do yourself a favour and don’t follow them.
And now in at number 1 we have aliens.
The Kongka La Pass is one of the most least populated places in India.
That’s because it is located in a disputed territory between India and China but that’s
not what makes this area one of the most mysterious places in India.
There have been a lot of reports of UFO’s in the area and very strange looking aliens
inhabiting the land here.
The locals have reported seeing lots of UFOs fly here and they even believe that there
is an underground UFO base located in this area.
Take a look at this picture.
It shows buildings in the pass that look like some sort of military facility.
I don’t know what’s really going on here but I smell something fishy…
Well there you guys have it…
