    Bhangarh Fort

    AlwarIndia1573–early 18th century

Built in the late 16th century, the ruined fort city is the only Archaeological Survey of India protected monument with a formal ban on entry after sunset. Two enduring curses — one from a holy man and one from a rejected tantric sorcerer — explain its sudden abandonment and the persistent stories of phantom music, screams, and unseen forces that still draw paranormal enthusiasts and dark-tourism visitors.
