In a small, quiet village, there were five children: Rohan, Ajay, Kiran, Ram, and Vijay. One day, while playing cricket, Rohan hit the ball so hard that it flew into an old, abandoned bungalow nearby.

Curious, the kids asked the village elders if they could go retrieve the ball. The elders warned them with a grave look, saying, “That bungalow is haunted.” However, the five friends were both scared and intrigued by the mystery surrounding the bungalow and decided to take the risk.

As they pushed open the creaky door, a swarm of bats flew out, startling them. Their hands began to tremble as they saw the inside of the bungalow. It was dark and dusty, filled with old furniture covered in cobwebs, making the air feel thick and eerie.

Suddenly, the door slammed shut behind them. Heartbeats racing, they quickly lit a few candles they had brought along to help them search for the ball. As they moved around, strange, echoing sounds began to fill the air. Each sound seemed to get louder, and with it, the fear in their hearts grew.

The weather outside also took a turn. Thunder rumbled through the sky, and flashes of lightning lit up the windows, casting eerie shadows on the walls. Panicked, the kids decided to leave. But as they turned, one of them accidentally knocked over a glass jar that shattered loudly on the floor.

This noise echoed through the bungalow, and it felt like something had been disturbed. Taking a deep breath, they ventured deeper, entering a mysterious room at the end of a narrow hallway.

And with that, their adventure was only just beginning…

Stay tuned for Part 2!
