Lift Mein Bhoot Tha

Lift Mein Bhoot Tha

Ek naye-naye banay flat mein Rahul ne rent par ghar liya. Job ke silsile mein hi Dilli aaya tha. Society ka naam tha – Silver Heights, lekin log isse chhup-chhup ke Killer Heights kehte the.

Pehle din hi Rahul ko kuch ajeeb laga. Flat toh achha tha, lekin lift kuch zyada hi purani aur creepy thi. Jaise hi koi andar jata, halki si metallic chinghaad sunai deti thi – jaise kisi ne andar se chhilaya ho.

Day 1

Rahul ne lift li, 13th floor pe jaa raha tha. Bas wahi ek banda tha puri lift mein. Jaise hi 7th floor par lift rukti hai, ek budhiya bina kuch bole chadh jaati hai. Rahul ke saamne khadi rehti hai, aankhon mein aankh daale.

"Namaste aunty…" Rahul kehte hai.

Budhiya chup. Sirf dekhti rehti hai. Tabhi lift ek jhatke se ruk jaati hai – beech mein. Lights off. Total darkness.

Ek second mein light vaapas aati hai – aur budhiya gayab.

Rahul shocked. "Ye kya tha??"

Lift chalu hoti hai, 13th floor par pahuncha, par Rahul ne seedha guard ko pakda.

"Sir, lift mein koi budhiya thi. Abhi gayab ho gayi!"

Guard hasa. "Beta, is society mein koi 7th floor pe rehta hi nahi… aur us floor pe toh 3 saal pehle ek budhiya ki maut hui thi – lift mein!"


Day 3

Rahul ne decide kiya – stairs use karega. Lekin 13th floor! 3 din mein thak gaya. Finally phir se lift mein chadha.

Is baar mobile nikaala, selfie mode on kiya – proof chahiye tha us budhiya ka.

Lift chali… 7th floor aaya… door khula… koi nahi.

“Shayad hallucination tha…” Rahul ne socha.

Tabhi uske phone ka front camera freeze ho gaya. Usmein clearly ek aur face tha – Rahul ke peechhe. Budhiya.

Rahul palta – koi nahi.

Phone dekha – photo automatic click ho gaya tha. Zoom kiya…

Aur budhiya usmein keh rahi thi –
“13th floor mera tha, tu kyun aaya?”


Climax Twist

Agli subah Rahul society se bhaag gaya. Par jab society ke manager ko complaint mili aur wo uske flat mein gaye…

Unhone dekha – 13th floor par Rahul ka flat band tha.

Society ke records check kiye gaye.

Us naam ka koi tenant kabhi raha hi nahi.

Aur budhiya?

Uska naam bhi records mein likha tha – Mrs. Rahul Verma.

Wahi flat. Wahi floor. Wahi maut.


The End... ya shayad nahi.

"The Unexpected Guest"

  "The Unexpected Guest" Theme: Surprises, Laziness, and a Funny Encounter It was a typical Saturday for Raj — the kind of day that involved zero plans and plenty of doing nothing . As usual, he was in his pajamas, sprawled out on the couch, binge-watching his favorite show. Suddenly, his phone buzzed. It was a message from his mom : "I’m coming over to visit in an hour. Clean up!" Panic mode activated. Raj's room was a disaster. There were clothes everywhere, empty pizza boxes, and his bed looked like a crime scene . He had exactly 60 minutes to transform his room from a pigsty to something that resembled a living space. In a mad rush, Raj grabbed all the trash and stuffed it under his bed. He fluffed up his pillow, threw a blanket over the mess, and quickly wiped down the surface of his desk. "Done," he said proudly, admiring his work. But just as he thought he was safe, his phone buzzed again. This time, it was a message from his mom : "A...
