The Story of The Scariest Colony of India
This colony, which is close to St. Mary Road, is full with identical-looking homes.
Back in the 19th century, industrialist John De Monte owned the entire stretch of that colony.
He allegedly lived a very miserable and unstable existence. His problems were made worse by the fact that his wife was mentally ill.
Their son died one day, and that was soon followed by the death of his parents. Ever since then, there has been a lot of talk about the entire place being haunted.
People say that they hear strange noises issuing from the colony while they walk past.
They also hear locked and bolted doors opening and closing and mysterious shadows falling on the sidewalk.
If that's not enough, there was once a security guard who was posted at De Monte colony. On the very next day, he was found dead on duty.
Even pets or stray animals who wander into this strange area have disappeared.
The colony has a shabby look, which is mainly due to lack of good maintenance. There are also tonnes of trees lining the streets and this might also be the reason for the shadows and the solitude.
"Demonte Colony," a Tamil-language horror film starring Arulnithi, Ramesh Thilak, and Sananth, was released in 2015. You can imagine how popular the location's Horror Tales might be.
