During our vacations, we went to Dang for a night camp. Dang is a forest region in Gujarat. We had to stay in tents. I never had the experience of staying in tents before this. I was very scared. Our tents were on the river bank. It was very dark. Even the roaring of the water sounded monstrous to me.

At dusk, when we had a bon fire, I enjoyed myself dancing and singing around it. But later, one of my cousins told a ghost story. As I closed my eyes to sleep, the dreadful figure of the ghost came to my mind again and again. I had a feeling that the ghost was coming closer though I couldn’t see it. The worst thing was I was sure it would kill me before morning. Finally, when we woke in the morning, I was very relieved to find myself alive and this became an unforgettable night in my life.
