A Baker’s Dozen: 13 Chilling Indian Tales of Macabre

What looked like morning was the beginning of endless night - William Peter Blatty, The Exorcist

Travelling through India, you are surrounded by crumbling monuments of bygone eras, legends of a violent past and dark corners with unexplained shadows. What lurks in these dimensions and beyond is best left to the imagination.

Do not venture near ancient shrines in dark forests lest you anger some primordial God… Non-descript railway stations are best avoided at night… Battle-fields which have seen a lot of blood-letting are not to be taken lightly. Maybe you’ll chance upon a ghost army.

There will always be sceptics who will scorn and even laugh at these beliefs…but if they ever come face to face with the un-imaginable that they had scorned at, they may not be able to run away anywhere.

A Baker’s Dozen: 13 Chilling Indians Tales of Macabre is a collection of very Indian Short Stories which will not only evoke nostalgia but also chill your blood; and who knows, may conjure the fears hidden deep inside you. The tales will make your nights a lot more sinister and your dreams a little scarier.
