CH - 3

Once I was sent to a town for a tour of 3 days. I was instructed to meet the technical heads of certain companies and introduce some new machinery. I had to go by bus and the town situated at a distance of roughly 800 kms.

I left for the place at night at about 8 pm. I enjoyed the journey by bus, occasionally stopping on the way for refreshments, coffee tea etc and the bus was packed to its capacity.

I reached the destination at about 7.30am. My accommodation was booked in advance in a paid guest house. After reaching the bus stand, I took a cab and reached the place.

There were more than 20 guest houses. I was accommodated in one by the side of the main road. It was a two room house with all facilities and it fully furnished even with a TV. I had shower, then a boy came and took my order for breakfast and coffee, and I got it within 20 minutes.

I was in a hurry to go to a factory to meet the officer I had an appointment with, therefore, after having my breakfast I took my bag and left for the factory.

I took a bus from my place, while travelling by bus I saw that there was a very big lake just behind our guest houses and it covered an area of roughly 4 kms and the travelled all along the lake and then the bus took a turn.

I reached the factory and met the officer who was in fact waiting for me, of course, I was not late. I had a long fruitful discussion. I left the factory happily and went to the other I dusty and met the officer and submitted the quotation.

Being thus free, I visited some new factories and then I went to a hotel, had my lunch and reached my place at about 4 pm. I was very tired but, in fact, was very happy for my successful discussion with the technical manager who promised to place an order for two expensive machinery.

Next day, after taking breakfast I took out my lap top to send some report to my office. I was sitting on my bed near the front window. The window was open. I was thinking and typing.

Suddenly, I saw a person came and stood on the other side of the window, but he stood a little away from the window. He kept staring at me. I was busy in typing, after some time I turned my head and looked at the man.

But I could not turn away my look from him, I felt a strange and very powerful attraction towards him. I left my laptop, came out of my room and started following him. As soon as I came to him, without a word, he just started walking towards the lake.

He was 10 yards ahead of me, while walking, he was turning back and looking at me. I was blindly following him and I lost all senses. I was not aware where I was going, or whom I was following. I was just following.

The man finally reached the lake and got down and went nearly 20 years into the the lake. I could see only his head, still he was looking at me and I felt the strange attraction towards him.

I was about to get into the lake, just then some body caught my waist and pulled me back. I saw one of the security guards pulled me back and asked me " Where are you going, sir, Do you want to kill yourself ? "

I said I was following that man and pointed my finger lo towards the man into the lake but No body was there!!??

He brought me to my guest house , made me sit on a chair and offered me a glass of water and sprinkled some water on my face, then I became normal and I came back to my senses.

I asked him what happened to me. He replied." Sir, you were following the dead person and getting into the lake to get killed. It is a very deep lake."

I said - but the person ?

He said " He was a dead man, he had got drowned in that lake 5 months ago and died. You were following his spirit, not any real man."

He then said " He may appear again, if he comes, just take the name of Jesus he will vanish."

The next day, as he said, the dead man appeared again. I simply closed my eyes and took the name of Jesus, the man disappeared. This is my 3rd encounter with ghost which nearly killed me.
