    De Monte Colony

    ChennaiIndia19th century

    De Monte Colony in Alwarpet, Chennai, is widely regarded as South India's most notorious haunted residential enclave. Built by Sir John De Monte, a wealthy 19th-century Portuguese businessman, the deserted lane of identical dilapidated villas has stood abandoned for decades. Plagued by family tragedies, disputed wills, and persistent urban legends of phantom guards and wandering spirits, the street remains an eerie, overgrown pocket of silence amidst Chennai's bustling cityscape.
