Halloween Special: A Night At Bhangarh Fort

This tale is not for the faint hearted but if you love true horror stories, you are in for a treat. Not sure how much of it is true, but someone told it to me and he believed it to be true. So happy Halloween and enjoy a night at bhangarh fort. Do tell me if you liked it!


Benedict Thorburn and a group of his friends were out for a camping weekend after a long hard year of meetings and presentations. Every year, he and his friends Becky Fassbender, Rajat Rathod, Sanya Singhania and Gurveer Singh Sethi, went out for camping in the nearby woods to get away from their fast paced lives. This year, Gurveer had suggested a camping in Alwar, Rajasthan. The reason for his suggestion was simple. He didn’t want to travel for long and he wanted a quiet and uneventful getaway from his life. Others agreed and decided to camp at Vanaashrya Camping Resort.

Vacuum- Hallucinations Part 2

“I was hallucinating”, said Brown, “But I am fine now.” He knew he wasn’t. He was going to get to the root of things but if he told others, they would think that he got exposed to the radiation too which corrupted his mind. That is why he lied about his state of mind.

It was day four of the trip now. Each day a couple of mission specialists and a ship specialist were assigned to run a routine check on all the systems which included the systems of the allegedly haunted carrier. No one was ready to take up this task concerning the incidents that occurred yesterday.

Finally Linda, Michael and Edward stepped up. Edward had his own agenda of finding out what caused his real life hallucinations, Michael was not superstitious at all and Linda knew the carrier well. Although Michael wasn’t superstitious, he did have a weird fear of fire. He always felt that the fire was a living monster that would engulf him.

Vacuum- Hallucinations Part I

There was an eerie silence on the comms. Sarah finally broke the silence by saying, ” Bring the suit to the command module! Let us examine it. Let’s find out how it got here.”

Edward and Linda dragged the suit back to the command module. Jeff Adams was a criminal investigator before he joined NASA. He examined the suit and found out that the suit had been in the carrier for a really long time. It seemed like it had been there since Major Young’s death.

They then reviewed the footage of the carrier’s interior camera. According to the camera, Young crawled back into the carrier but as the carrier was not in use, he couldn’t fix the problem in his suit and died inside. Edward did not let anyone touch the suit as it could still be contaminated so he took it back to the carrier and placed it in a safe box.

Vacuum- The First Quarter

Sunday, 18th May 2008: The crew was strapped in the command module of the spaceship and the ship was in launch sequence sharp at 0900 hours. The commander and mission control collaborated by a final systems check. The systems were a go and the final countdown began. 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 We have lift off…

The largest possible rocket thrusters filled with aviation fuel spurred to life and with a dense cloud of exhaust gases, the spaceship was launched towards outer space. When they reached the outermost layer of earth’s atmosphere, the rocket’s parts were slowly detached from the ship and finally after the detaching sequence, the ship was functional on its own power source.

The ship had been launched into the correct path towards the Alpha station which was the first quarter of the mission. Everyone unfastened their seat belts and could finally move to their stations. The ship specialists ran their routine checks. The mission specialists were debriefed by David and Linda on the final mission plan. On the night of 19th May, all the crew members except David and Linda (who were talking home via the secure communications channel that now came standard with every space travel machine) were sitting together in the command module and talking to each other about previous missions.

All of them knew about the tragic death of Major Daniel but only some of them knew that David, Linda and Sarah were on that mission with Daniel. Deborah was one of them so she asked Sarah about Daniel’s death. Sarah told everyone about the tragic incident.

Vacuum- Mission Debrief

A final mission debrief was held a few days before the mission lift off. All the crew members were called in. Punctuality at NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) was taken very seriously and all the crew members knew that. David Anderson, the commander of the ship that was going to be used in the mission was the first to arrive at Meeting Room A at Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas.

He was a US Air Force Colonel and a Mechanical Engineer and he had been a pilot in many missions before this. He had been called back for service for one last mission as he was the only one equipped with the knowledge of an old carrier that had to be used for this mission. Tagging along with him was Mission Specialist Linda Anderson, an Aerospace Engineer. She was his sister and she had been on previous missions with him as her mentor.
