THE GHOST LAND

There is a village named "Khargishya" in Rajasthan, a western state of India. This village is situated amid highly dense forest and huge mountains. The villagers have to walk miles together to get their daily needs from the nearby town. There are two ways to reach the town of which one is through the forest and the other is to climb the mountains. Forest path is the advantageous one as it doesn't have any ferocious animals and faster where as the mountain path is too dangerous because the mountains are too steep and prone to falling down. But since the past few months mysterious deaths have been taking place in the forest which scared the villagers to enter. Now the only option left is to take the mountain path. So will the villagers climb the mountains? What is the reason behind mysterious deaths? Is it a ghost or spirit? Will the villagers capture the spirits?
