·18 min·1 clip
A possessed girl reveals she is Narayani, a ghost who died with her child, and makes specific requests.
The episode begins with Sultan's mother introducing the podcast and explaining that Sultan is absent due to health issues. She describes living in a 'Darwin household' with a mysterious past, though Darwin himself is no longer present. The narrator recalls childhood without electricity, where darkness fueled fears and grandmothers shared ghost stories. She introduces the main story about Narayani, a young married woman who lived nearby. Narayani came to their house asking for rice one evening, which was considered inauspicious. She died shortly after with her child, becoming a ghost. Years later, Narayani's ghost possessed a young girl in the family. The possessed girl revealed her identity as Narayani and explained she was drawn to a child in the house. Narayani gave detailed instructions: prepare food offerings (sathya vattam), lay leaves in the kitchen, tie specific threads, and hold onto the child tightly. The family followed these rituals, with multiple men holding the child as the ghost tried to take it. After the rituals, the ghost departed peacefully. The narrator explains this story has been passed down through generations. Her grandmother and mother both believed in it, and the family continues certain traditions because of it. They sometimes prepare special offerings and place them in the north temple. The narrator maintains personal faith in the story because she grew up hearing it from eyewitnesses. The episode concludes with her emphasizing that she shares these stories not to cause trouble but to preserve memories.
