About the Book

Is the abandoned Khairatabad Science College in Hyderabad really haunted? A gang of students break inside to investigate.

Nirav and Pavi love each other… most of the time. Will exploring a forbidden place inside IIT Kharagpur bring them closer?

From strange sightings to urban legends, from haunted buildings to not-so-friendly ghosts, colleges in India have their fair share of spine-tingling tales, be it Kasturba Medical College in Manipal, St. Bede’s College in Shimla or Delhi University. Young Blood is a collection of ten tales that reimagine college urban legends and true first-person accounts, that promises to terrify even die-hard fans of horror.

Chandrima Das says, “Back in college, I loved hanging out with hostel-mates late at night, exchanging ghost stories till someone got too scared and broke up the adda. I’ve fancied myself a collector of these orally passed down narratives for many years. This book is basically me sitting with the reader for one of those late-night ghost story addas where we stick to college stories! The silent corridor after hours, the empty classroom, that one hostel room that’s permanently locked up – every college has one eerie symbol around which spooky stories bloom like wild flowers. However, I had to do additional research to write this book, and that’s when I realized that this myth-making by students is also a coping mechanism for genuine horrors they may experience. So while I’ve chronicled lore about the supernatural in colleges, I’ve also tried pointing to college experiences which may be just as terrifying.”
