Ghost, Horror and Hills Where folklore and eerie mists linger

By Kant, Aditya

First published 2026

Ghosts, Horror and Hills are a chilling collection of short stories set against the picturesque yet eerie landscapes of Himachal Pradesh. Drawing from local legends, paranormal phenomena, and unsettling real-life events, the book weaves a captivating narrative that merges the mystical with the contemporary. Each story offers an atmospheric journey through the haunting beauty of the Himalayas, blending traditional folklore with fictionalised accounts of strange occurrences—many inspired by the psychological and social shifts during and after the Covid-19 pandemic. From whispers in abandoned villages to spectral echoes in mountain passes, from the humming beeps of monitors in ICUs to the thumping of wooden floors in deserted houses, the tales evoke a sense of timeless dread. Combining the classic thrill of ghost stories with the immediacy of recent events, the collection creates a unique blend that resonates with readers seeking both nostalgia and novelty.
