Indian Ghost Tales

Product details

Indian Ghost Tales (According to Real-Life Sightings) by Siddhartha Mukherjee... In India, ghosts and their stories are regarded with both respect and fear. I heard all sorts of ghost stories from my wet nurse, from my father's driver, Abdullah, who was always my constant childhood companion and dear friend who is no longer here, as well as from my friends who were judges, officials, and government employees, and in two cases before the judges of the Indian Supreme Court. Certainly, it is not a story from a wet nurse or a driver that should be rewritten in this book. This book contains only a few of those stories, and those that are true according to the best of the author's knowledge and certainty. Some of these accounts undoubtedly have many "rooster and bull" characteristics, but the reader should remember that "there are more things in heaven and earth..." etc., and that truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.
