Haunted Places of Mumbai-
Aarey Milk Colony: Known for the frequent leopard spotting in this area, Aarey colony is known as a place where no man should walk alone, especially at night. But there is another, more spooky reason for this unsaid rule – Many people, especially drivers have reported spotting a woman with a child asking for a lift and then disappearing. Other horror stories, like, a child running, an old man disappearing and babies crying at unusual hours during night have also been reported from the area
