Dsouza Chawl Of Mahim Mumbai Maharashtra
The D`Souza Chawl of Mahim is located in Mumbai near the Canossa Primary School. The chawl is said to have a spirit of a woman who died by falling into the well.
History
According to the legend, there was a well in the chawl, which did not have any embankment and so, was very dangerous. A woman went to get some water from the well and fell down the well by accident. She struggled for quite some time but eventually died. The spirit of the woman still haunts the chawl and many people have seen her roaming around the well. Despite the spirit being harmless, the people of the chawl are advised not to go to that well during the night. The spirit roams around the well after sunset and disappears during the dawn.
Peak Haunting Time
The ghost of the woman haunts the place at night and roams around all night in the vicinity of the well. The woman goes at dusk and the place again becomes a safe zone and the people can go there freely.
How to Reach
Mumbai is well connected with roads and the public conveyance available for the people is very convenient. You can take a bus until the nearest bus stop, which is Mahim Bus stop and then take a taxi until the chawl. It is just a few kilometers away from the bus station. You can also get your personal vehicle and reach D`Souza Chawl.
