HIDDEN STORY OF BORIM BRIDGE
The Old Borim
Bridge is one of the haunted places in Goa. The story narrated comes from one
of my close acquaintance.
This incident happened on 31st march
2010. Two friends Anuj and Satish returning home from their late night parties
from Margao to Ponda. Usually many people travelling to ponda or margao take up
this route crossing the most horrified bridge (Borim Bridge).
While they were on their way some distance away
from the bridge one of the friend was being restless. Anuj felt as if something
was following them, he told Satish to lower the bike speed and to stop at a
distance. Satish was quite agitated as he wanted to reach home as they were
already late.
Anuj was really scared as he had heard the
narrated stories about the Borim bridge from his parents but often took it very
lightly. As Anuj was telling Satish that he can hear a cry of a woman in vain.
They both now could see a lady in white attire walking towards them she was
screaming and crying out aloud, this led both the friends in a panicky
situation.
Both the friends now decided to rush back, Satish
quickly hurried to start the bike but it was not getting started to move ahead.
He now decided to chant holy verse to get rid of this situation finally the
bike got started and both the friends
moved from the place quickly.
Though they managed to escape the situation Anuj
had a long lasting effect of this incident. He was unable to move out of his
house at midnight hours and was also kept medication for two months.
Thus these incidents have long lasting influence
on individuals facing such circumstances and life long experience to share.
