“Ghost” or  “Haunted Places” when we hear about these words we start making fun of them. People make bets on these to visit alone. Many people don't believe in ghosts or any haunted places. They think that it doesn’t exist. However there are some who still believe it. Did you know that the Taj Mahal Palace is haunted! 

Everyone is aware that The Taj Mahal Palace is an opulent , waterfront hotel in Mumbai, India. It is also known as a haunted place. Let me tell you all about the history. A man named W.A. Chambers was to take over as head architect for the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel’s construction.


  •  He is said to have approved blueprints before going on a short trip to the United Kingdom. Legend has it that upon his return he was shocked to discover a huge error in what he had approved. It turns out that the hotel has been built facing in the opposite direction to which he has intended. Unfortunately, construction has already progressed too far for this oversight to be corrected. Chambers, who was a perfectionist, hated the mistake and it bothered him too much. Supposedly the mistake weighed so heavily on his mind, he decided to take his own life, jumping from the 5th floor within the hotel he believed he had destroyed. Ever since Chamber’s death, many people claim that his spirit continues to roam the halls of the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. Many people have claimed to see him, hear him and even to have been physically assaulted by him. It is said that Chambers is still looking after the hotel and managed to knock a staff member unconscious who was attempting to steal precious silverware.
