Episode 9 - The Headless Woman Of Kasara Ghat. / Posted by: Mandahrk Source: Reddit---I was sleeping when she died. Drooling and drifting from one hazy dream to another, blissfully unaware of the struggles that were her last breaths.I wouldn't have done it if not for what happened to her. For what I did to her.Was it redemption that I was seeking? Deliverance, perhaps? Or maybe just a good night's sleep. I don't know. I guess I'll never know. My father always used to say that you can never really be a good judge of your own intentions, so you should just stop trying.I didn't go looking for it. It came to me by pure chance while I was mindlessly scrolling through Facebook, rolling an empty bottle of whiskey under my foot, my sweat stale with the stench of its contents. I paused to flex my aching thumb and there it was, the text practically screaming at me -The Headless Woman Of Kasara Ghat : The Nightmare That Makes Your Dreams Come True!!!It was the turn of phrase that caught my attention. Just something about that contrasting imagery of dreams and nightmares, of rainbows melting into roiling black skies that resonated with me so suddenly and so deeply that I found myself repeatedly thumbing my phone's screen before I even realized what I was doing.The link took me to a garbage, ad-riddled website. The kind that has white text slathered on a black background and two pop up ads ready to slap your screen if you dare let your thumb slip. Yet my curiosity made me soldier on. My eyes flew over the text, my heartbeat growing faster and faster the deeper I got into the article.Have you ever lost someone you loved?Wish you could talk to them one last time?Look no further!The Headless Woman of Kasara Ghat is here to take care of your deepest desires.Kasara Ghat situated on the Mumbai-Nashik Highway is said to be one of the most haunted stretches of road in India today.

Adrenaline? …Hope?What the hell was I doing?
