"The Haunted Forest: The Mysterious Disappearance of Shiva in a Nepa
li Village"
Shiva is a kind and energetic boy who lives in a beautiful village in Nepal. His village is surrounded by green hills, flowing rivers, and fresh mountain air. Shiva enjoys his simple village life with great happiness. Every morning, he wakes up early to the sound of roosters and birds, then helps his parents with small household and farming tasks. After finishing his work, he runs to meet his friends, and together they play football in open fields, climb trees, and explore nearby forests. In the evenings, Shiva sits with the villagers and listens to elders share stories about culture and traditions. During festivals, the whole village celebrates with music, dance, and delicious food. Shiva feels proud to live in his village because it teaches him friendship, respect, and the true joy of living close to nature.
One day, Shiva went to the nearby market to buy some household things for his family. The market was lively and colorful, filled with people from different villages selling fresh vegetables, fruits, clothes, and handmade goods. He enjoyed walking around, watching the shopkeepers call out to customers and meeting a few of his friends along the way. After finishing his shopping, he lost track of time while enjoying the busy atmosphere. When he finally reached the bus stop, he realized that he had missed the last bus to his village. With no other option left, Shiva decided to return home by taking a shortcut through the forest. Though he felt a little nervous, he gathered his courage and stepped onto the narrow path that led into the quiet, shadowy woods.
As Shiva walked deeper into the forest, he finally reached the old wooden bridge that lay across a narrow river. The bridge was made of rough wooden planks tied together with ropes, and it looked weak and shaky. When he stepped onto it, the wood began to creak and produce strange cracking sounds. The bridge swayed gently with every step, making his heart beat faster. The flowing water beneath added to the scary feeling, and the quiet forest around him made even the smallest sound seem louder.
While he was carefully crossing the bridge, two small boys came from the opposite side. They walked past him calmly, as if they were not afraid at all. For a moment, Shiva felt a little relieved seeing them, but the bridge continued to shake and make unsettling noises as he slowly made his way across, holding his breath until he reached the other side safely.
After crossing the bridge, Shiva tried to calm himself and continued walking along the narrow forest path. The evening light was slowly fading, and the trees cast long, dark shadows on the ground. He walked for quite some time, thinking about reaching home quickly. Suddenly, he noticed two small boys coming from the opposite direction again. His heart skipped a beat. They looked exactly the same as the boys who had crossed him on the bridge a few minutes earlier.
Shiva became confused and frightened. How could they be here again? There was only one path through the forest, and he had not seen them turn back. The boys quietly passed him without saying a word, their faces expressionless. A cold shiver ran down his spine, and he felt as if something was not right. The forest seemed quieter than before, and every sound around him felt mysterious and unsettling.
Shiva’s heart began to pound wildly as a terrifying thought filled his mind — those boys were not normal humans. He remembered clearly that there was only one narrow path through the forest. There was no way they could have appeared in front of him again. Fear gripped his whole body. Cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and his hands started trembling. The forest suddenly felt darker, colder, and strangely silent.
Trying to stay brave, Shiva began walking faster toward his village. His breathing became heavy, and the sound of his own footsteps echoed loudly in his ears. He did not dare to look back. But after a few moments, he felt something strange. It was as if someone or something was pulling him gently from behind. His shirt tightened at the back, and he felt a cold touch near his shoulder.
His legs felt weak, yet he forced himself to move forward. The pulling sensation grew stronger, and the leaves around him rustled even though there was no wind. Fear completely surrounded him as he realized that whatever was following him did not want him to leave the forest so easily.
In that moment of pure terror, Shiva closed his eyes and began chanting the holy names of God with all his faith. He repeated the name of Shiva again and again, praying for protection and strength. Gathering all his courage, he suddenly broke free from the strange pulling force and started running as fast as he could along the dark forest path. His heart pounded loudly, and his breath grew heavy, but he did not stop.
After running some distance, he felt a powerful force grab him from behind. Before he could even scream, something lifted him high into the air and threw him forward with great force. He landed hard on the roadside near the edge of the forest. The impact made everything spin around him. His vision blurred, his body felt numb, and within seconds, Shiva lost consciousness, lying still under the dim evening sky.
After some time, Shiva slowly regained consciousness. His head was aching badly, and his body felt weak and sore. For a few moments, he could not understand where he was. Then the frightening memories of the forest rushed back into his mind. The bridge, the strange boys, the invisible force — everything felt terrifyingly real.
As he looked around, he noticed that the forest was behind him and he was lying near the roadside. His bag of household items was scattered nearby, but fear had completely taken over his heart. Without wasting a second, he stood up shakily and began to run toward his village. He did not care about the things he had bought from the market. All he wanted was to reach home safely.
With tears in his eyes and his heart pounding loudly, Shiva ran faster than ever before, praying that nothing would follow him again.
Breathing heavily and trembling with fear, Shiva finally reached the front of his house. The familiar sight of his home gave him a small sense of relief. With shaking hands, he quickly tried to open the wooden door. Just as he was about to step inside, he suddenly felt a powerful force grab him from behind once again. Before he could react, something lifted him and threw him hard onto the ground in front of the house.
He cried out in pain as dust rose around him. His body felt weak, but the thought of being outside terrified him even more. Gathering the last bit of strength left in him, Shiva quickly stood up, rushed toward the door, and pushed it open with all his might. He stumbled inside and slammed the door shut. Leaning against it, breathless and shaken, he prayed silently, hoping that whatever had followed him would not enter his home.
The next morning, the villagers were shocked to see Shiva awake but unable to speak. His voice was completely gone, and no matter how hard he tried, only a whisperless gasp escaped his lips. The fear and terror from the night before had left deep marks on his mind. Over the next few days, Shiva’s behavior became strange — he wandered aimlessly, muttering to himself, and often stared at the forest as if he could see something no one else could. Slowly, the villagers realized that he was losing his mind.
A week later, Shiva vanished without a trace. No one saw him leave, and no one knew how or where he had gone. The villagers searched the forest and the nearby areas, but it was as if he had simply disappeared into thin air. From that day on, people in the village often spoke about Shiva in hushed tones, sharing stories of the boy who had faced something beyond human understanding. Yet, the mystery remained — no one knew where he had gone or what had truly happened to him, and his disappearance became a tale that chilled the hearts of everyone who heard it.
