THIS BOOK CONTAINS THREE NOVELETTES. ALL OF THEM ARE BASED IN PARANORMAL PHENOMENA, GHOSTS, EXORCISM AND ALL. I BELIEVE THAT DESPITE THE MARCH OF SCIENCE, STORIES BASED ON GHOSTS, SUPERNATURAL PHENOMENA, CRIME ARE TIMELESS. I PERSONALLY ENJOY STORIES WRITTEN BY THE STALWARTS LIKE STEPHEN KING, PETER STRAUB, IRA LEVIN, DAN SIMMONS. LOVE STORIES, SOCIAL COMMENTARY, ANTHOLOGIES, BIOGRAPHIES GET DATED AS SOON AS HUMAN GROUPS ADOPT NEW MORES AND NEW VALUES, NEW POLITICAL IDEOLOGIES, NEW POLITICAL PATRONS. SO SUCH BOOKS BECOME OUTDATED AS SOON AS THEY ARE WRITTEN. BUT THE SCARY LITERATURE OR A MASTERLY WRITTEN WHODUNNIT NEVER GOES OUT OF FASHION. YOUNG PEOPLE STILL READ AGATHA CHRISTIE. SINCE I ENJOY THIS GENRE OF LITERATURE, I TOOK THE BABY STEPS TO WRITE THE KIND OF ‘LITERATURE’ THAT I ENJOY, RIGHT IN MY COLLEGE DAYS. THE RATIONAL WAY IS TO LOOK AT THIS KIND OF ‘LITERATURE’ IS TO LOOK AT THE ENTERTAINMENT ANGLE AND NOT TO QUESTION THE BASIC PREMISES BEHIND THE STORY. MY BELIEF IS, ONCE THE BASIC PREMISE BEHIND THE STORY IS ESTABLISHED, THE INTERNAL LOGIC BASED ON THAT PREMISE SHOULD HOLD TRUE. I HAVE TRIED THAT. NONE OF THE NOVELETTES IN THIS BOOK ARE ‘INSPIRED’ OR TRANSLATED. AT THE SAME TIME A DISCLAIMER. I DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO ANY SUPERSTITIOUS BELIEFS. I AM AN ATHEIST. ON ANY MENTAL OR PHYSICAL DISORDER, ALLOPATHIC MEDICINE IS THE BEST COURSE. BUT SOMETIMES IT IS BETTER TO SUSPEND YOUR DISBELIEF AND JUST GO ALONG WITH THE STORY LINE. HOPE YOU ENJOY THESE NOVELETTES.
