About this listen

The Ramsays, India's first family of horror, are synonymous with the supernatural and gore. Through their films and series they introduced India to churails that floated across the screen, ghouls that woke up from eerie graveyards, and houses that buzzed with ghosts.

But few knew that behind the production drama, elaborate sets, and haunting showtunes, there was a more sinister story. For the Ramsays, the supernatural wasn't just stuck to the screens and camera - it creeped into their lives, too.

Alisha Kirpalani, the granddaughter of FU Ramsay, has grown up on stories that question reality and bring a chill to the bone. In time, she, too, followed her family's footsteps and saw through the veil that separates this world and the Other.

From the woman on the highway that Shyam Ramsay met to an eerie and persistent knocking that came from every house that Tanuja Ramsay lived in to Amit Ramsay's unwelcome dead visitor at Lamington House, the original home of the Ramsays, this book has the improbable, bizarre, and spine-chilling all parading through its chapters.

If you believe these are true stories...

Then I have some prime swamp land to sell you...

How do you bolster horror movie sales that you produce in Bollywood? Write a book about a bunch of outlandish ghost stories and try to pass them off as true accounts, aka... why your horror movies are not to be missed (bought).

If you follow actual real life accounts of poltergeists, apparition interactions, NDE stories, they are NOTHING like the over-the-top-horror-movie-style fictional drama stories in this book.

This is a book of well written, 1-chapter length, fictional ghost stories, but that's it.
