The Cave

Image
By

Reddit user stone_huntsman works as a cave guide, leading tours for spelunking (or caving). After taking a group down one day, everyone stopped to take a break near a section where you can hear the underground streams flowing through the cave system. While there, they had everyone turn off their headlight, so that they could experience the total darkness.


This group had a slightly different experience. They heard what sounded like another group chatting and throwing rock in front of them--but there’s only a 100 foot drop in front of them, no people.

Everyone eventually put their headlights back on, and they finished the tour. As the guides recorded what happened, about an hour later, they encountered the tour guide for the group behind them. The other guide looked shocked to see them, and asked how they had gotten out so quickly. His tour had the same experience of inexpiable noises. Eventually, law enforcement was called to look for trespassers, but they never found any signs of people sneaking in.

  Dhormer Age Nari ---------------- Hindu ar Muslim kore desher bayna, Keu aaj mile-mishe thakte aar chay na. Kintu aaj jokhon kotha othe nari-bhoger, Tokhon uchu-nichu, Hindu-Muslim kaukei chhara jay na. Nari manei jeno or opor shokoler odhikar, Taake bhog korte sadhu-neta — keu baad jay na aar. Mondire ghonta baje, mosjide azaan, Baire dhormer naame koto rokter gaan! Othochho ondho golite eka, ottachaarito, meyeti jokhon kaade, Dhormo tokhon daray ki taar pashe protibaade? Je haat guli sokale tole prarthonar phool, Raater andhare shei haat-i kore keno paap aar bhool? Jaat niye borai, dhormo niye juddho, Shobhyotar poshak porleo bhetorta oshuddho.

THE FLOOR THAT WAS NEVER BUILT (by Gitangshu Adhikary; Plot by Sourodipto)

  THE FLOOR THAT WAS NEVER BUILT Author: Gitangshu Adhikary Plot: Sourodipto Part I — The Sounds Above By midnight, everyone in Kankurgachi Heights knew the footsteps would begin. No one spoke about them in daylight. The residents laughed in elevators, complained about leaking taps, argued over parking spaces, paid maintenance fees, and posted photographs of sunsets from their balconies. They behaved like people who believed concrete could keep the world ordinary. Then the clock crossed twelve. The footsteps came. Not loud. Measured. Patient. Someone walking across a floor that did not officially exist. ... A child on the sixth floor had once asked his mother why the footsteps always sounded as though they stopped directly above his bedroom. She slapped him before she realized she had done it. Three days later, the family moved away without informing the housing society. Nobody took Flat 6C again. ... The tower stood in one of Kolkata's ...

THE EYES OF AMAVASYA (by Gitangshu Adhikary; Sam Penn)

  THE EYES OF AMAVASYA Author: Gitangshu Adhikary Plot: Sam Penn Part I — The Bird That Never Blinked The bird arrived on a Tuesday. Nobody saw it come. Nobody heard its wings. Yet when eleven-year-old Arjun awoke just after midnight to the sound of a dry tapping against his bedroom window, it was already there—perched on the twisted neem tree behind his house. At first, he smiled. It looked like a parrot. Green feathers. Long tail. Curved beak. Only... Its feathers seemed too dark for moonlight, as though they absorbed the pale glow instead of reflecting it. And it wasn't looking around. It was looking at him. Directly. Its eyes never wandered. They never blinked. Arjun waved. The bird remained perfectly still. The tapping stopped. He rubbed his sleepy eyes. The branch was empty. The bird had disappeared without taking flight. The next night, it returned. This time there was no tapping. Arjun woke for no reason a...
