Paranormal investigator Jay Alani and horror story writer Neil D’Silva are out with the book, Haunted. Having investigated over 60 locations across the country, Alani believes there’s a lot beyond the realm of human understanding that leads to what we perceive as spooky phenomena. “Unfortunately, reel life has clouded our perception of what exists in real life. Ghosts don’t always wear white and roam in the dark. There’s usually a sensitive or traumatic history associated with a haunting, and I try to understand and solve the reason for the irregular sights and sounds.” The two say they fear, not spirits but anti social elements who often roam such locations, looking to cause harm.

Because travel should always be about an adventure, we got the pair to suggest five locations that top the spooky charts.
