My experience with a strange incident…

One day, this happened to me on a bus. We were traveling from Chennai to Sivaganga. We got onto the bus and took the last seat (sitting section). After getting in, we were just looking at our phones, listening to 90s songs, and then we slept for a while.

After some time, I woke up and casually looked around. That’s when I noticed someone in the opposite berth looking straight at me. Their face had turmeric applied all over, and it looked very unusual. They were smiling at me. I felt a bit uncomfortable but ignored it and looked away.

After a few moments, I turned back again—and they were still staring at me without even blinking. I felt something wasn’t right. So I woke my mom and told her. She looked and said, “There’s nothing there, just sleep.”

But when I looked again, it was still there, smiling at me. I got really scared. I put on my music and somehow fell asleep.

Early in the morning, we reached our destination. After waking up, I told my mom again. That’s when she said, “I saw it too. I didn’t tell you then because you would have been scared.” She even asked the conductor about it.

The conductor said, “No one else got in there. Only one boy boarded, and that too very late.”

That shocked us completely. Till now, I don’t know what it was. Have you ever experienced anything like this before?
