In this episode of True Paranormal Stories, we explore Bhangarh Fort in Rajasthan, a 16th-century citadel that has earned the title of India's most haunted fort. Once a thriving town with palaces, temples, and marketplaces, the fort now lies abandoned, its ruins wrapped in silence and superstition.
The most famous legend tells of Princess Ratnavati and a sorcerer named Singhia, who tried to enchant her with a love potion. When his plan failed and he was crushed by a rock, he cursed the princess and the entire town. Soon after, Bhangarh was destroyed in war, and the ruins were left under a dark shadow. Locals claim that no roof within the fort stays intact—an enduring mark of the sorcerer's dying curse.
Today, visitors report phantom voices, footsteps, cold winds, and apparitions, including a woman believed to be Ratnavati herself. The site is so infamous that the Indian government prohibits entry after sunset, warning that the fort is unsafe at night.
Whether seen as folklore, curse, or genuine haunting, Bhangarh Fort remains one of the most chilling reminders that some places hold tightly to their past—and perhaps their ghosts.
