The Chilling Tale of Noyonthara at Pari Mahal 

Noyonthara was a quiet, curious soul from Kolkata, known for her fascination with historic places and the mysteries they often conceal. A travel blogger by profession, she found herself increasingly drawn to places that weren’t just beautiful, but also whispered stories from the past—especially those steeped in the supernatural. It was during one of her routine online searches for hidden heritage spots that she stumbled upon the name “Pari Mahal” in Jammu and Kashmir.

Pari Mahal, known for its Mughal-era architecture and serene views, was also rumored to be haunted. Locals spoke in hushed tones about unexplainable events—whispers in the wind, flickering lights, and strange sounds that echoed through the empty corridors. The haunting stories piqued her curiosity more than the historical significance. Something about the palace called to her, almost as if the place itself wanted its story to be told.

Despite the warnings, Noyonthara packed her bags and took a flight to Srinagar. The moment she landed, a chill ran down her spine—not the kind you get from cold weather, but a deeper, more unsettling kind. She brushed it off, attributing it to excitement and anxiety. The drive to Pari Mahal was scenic, with the mountains painting a serene backdrop, but even amidst the beauty, she couldn’t shake off the feeling of being watched.

As she approached the palace, its old stone walls loomed in the evening light. The sun had begun to dip behind the hills, casting long shadows that made the building look even more mystical. The caretaker, a man in his sixties, greeted her at the entrance. When she mentioned staying inside for the night to document the place for her blog, he looked hesitant. “People come here during the day,” he said, “but very few stay after dark.”

Noyonthara smiled politely, reassuring him that she wasn’t afraid of ghost stories. But deep down, she wasn’t so sure. The moment she stepped inside the palace, an odd stillness surrounded her. The air was cold despite the summer outside. Her footsteps echoed too loudly, and even the sound of her breath felt intrusive.

The palace was a labyrinth of empty halls, arched windows, and moss-covered stones. She began filming, narrating stories she had read online—about soldiers who vanished, whispers of a jilted lover’s ghost, and the strange case of a historian who allegedly lost his voice after spending a night there. Everything seemed peaceful, until she entered the inner chamber.

There, the temperature dropped. She felt a wave of nausea and suddenly grew dizzy. Her camera lens fogged up, even though the air was still. That’s when she heard it—a faint whisper. At first, she thought it was the wind. But then, it came again. A child’s voice, soft and unclear, calling her name. Noyonthara froze.

She scanned the room, flashlight trembling in her hands. There was no one. Yet the air felt thick, like someone—or something—stood inches from her face. Gathering her courage, she asked, “Is someone here?” Silence followed. But then, something brushed past her shoulder. She spun around, but nothing was there. That’s when her camera started malfunctioning. The screen flickered, lights dimmed, and the battery drained rapidly even though it had been fully charged.

Suddenly, a door creaked open in the corner of the chamber. It wasn’t a door she had noticed before. With hesitation, she approached it and found a narrow staircase leading downwards. Against every instinct, she descended.

The basement smelled of damp earth and age-old decay. At the far end, there was a small mirror leaning against the wall. What she saw next froze her blood. In the reflection, a pale woman stood behind her, eyes hollow, mouth stitched shut. But when she turned around, the room was empty. Her breath hitched. Her knees felt weak. But she couldn’t look away from the mirror.

The reflection began to move on its own. The ghostly woman raised her hand and pointed toward the wall. As if compelled by an invisible force, Noyonthara moved to the wall and noticed an engraving—one that hadn’t been visible under normal light. It was a date, carved into the stone: 31 October 1730. She didn’t know what it meant, but her instincts screamed at her to leave.

As she turned to leave, the door to the staircase slammed shut. She raced toward it, heart pounding. Her flashlight flickered and died. In total darkness, she felt around the walls, praying for an opening. The room grew colder by the second. That’s when she heard breathing. Not hers—something deeper, heavier. It was right behind her.

She screamed and banged on the door. The breathing stopped. Then, she heard the child’s voice again, this time clearer, “Go… now.” The door creaked open on its own. Without thinking, she bolted up the stairs, stumbling and falling several times, until she reached the main floor. The palace was no longer quiet—it was alive with distant whispers and footsteps that echoed alongside her own.

As she rushed outside, the air felt lighter, as though she had passed through a heavy curtain. The caretaker was waiting, concern etched on his face. “Did you see her?” he asked. Noyonthara nodded slowly, trembling. “She doesn’t harm everyone. Only those who try to talk to her.”

Back at her hotel, Noyonthara played the footage she had captured. Most of it was fine—until the scene in the mirror room. The moment the ghostly woman appeared, the video distorted. Her own voice on the footage sounded distant and unfamiliar. But the final few seconds showed something chilling: as she ran toward the exit, the reflection in the mirror didn’t follow. It stayed there, staring, watching.

Noyonthara never returned to Pari Mahal. She published the story on her blog, sharing the video with a warning: some places are meant to be seen, not explored. Her readers were fascinated. Some praised her bravery, others questioned the authenticity. But she knew what she saw. What she felt. And that she had barely escaped with her sanity intact.

Even today, she sometimes wakes up gasping, hearing that childlike whisper in her dreams. And when she looks in the mirror, she can’t help but wonder… is the woman still watching?

Final Thought

Some places hold more than just history—they carry echoes of emotions, tragedies, and spirits trapped between worlds. Noyonthara’s visit to Pari Mahal reminds us that curiosity can sometimes unlock doors best left closed. Whether you’re a believer or skeptic, her chilling experience serves as a haunting tale of how even the most beautiful places can hide the darkest secrets. Pari Mahal isn’t just a monument—it’s a mystery that still watches from the shadows, waiting for the next visitor brave enough to listen.
