Indian Folklore Can Be Terrifying
I heard this story from someone, and honestly, the ending still creeps me out.
A man was walking down a deserted road when he noticed a woman standing ahead of him.
As he got closer, he looked down at her feet.
They were turned backwards.
In Indian folklore, chudails (witches) are said to have backwards feet.
He immediately turned around and ran.
A little further down the road, he came across another woman.
“Run!” he told her, completely out of breath. “There’s a witch up ahead!”
She looked confused.
“How do you know she was a witch?”
“Her feet,” he said. “They were backwards.”
The woman slowly looked down at her own feet.
Then she looked at him.
“Like mine?”
He looked down.
Her feet were backwards too.
The man fainted.
Apparently, when he woke up, he was lying on the side of the road alone.
Neither of the women was anywhere to be seen.
