D'Mello House

 

Goa is famous for its nightlife, beach parties, water activities, casinos, and some great food. But the city has a dark side, which has been kept under the wraps, and for good reason. The lush green of Goa might just turn a tad darker if you visit this spooky place in Goa.

This place known as the D’Mello house is in Santemol Raia and it is one of the most haunted places in Goa. Consequently, there is a big story as to why no one is ready to even maintain the house. Due to which the house condition is worsening day by day as the house roofs are all of the wood. There are remains fallen all over the house as the wooden roof keeps collapsing. Firstly, it is said that the house is haunted by the spirits of the D’Mello brothers. In short, they always used to fight with each other over the right to their ancestral property. It seems that one night, the fight escalated to a level wherein one of the brothers killed the other one. After a few days, the second brother died, too. Since then the passers-by and the people who live nearby claim to hear strange sounds. and for instance, blood-curdling and screams from the D’Mello House. As a result, the sound of screaming emanates from the house and many other paranormal occurrences. Hence, throwing something or breaking windows happens regularly. Therefore, there is a reason nobody goes near it or anyone ready to buy the house. The family members too could not come to a conclusion about the division of this estate. Moreover, built with a typical Portuguese touch, it has a large number of wide windows present with different carvings and nostalgic designs. The brother used to hear weird noises in the night he used to feel that someone was always there around him. Since the brother could not bear any further, he committed suicide in the very same house. That is to say, on the top floor which was the attic and a storage place in the house. After the death of these two brothers, the relatives tried to take possession of the property. However, the entire family died in a tragic car accident. The other family members are not interested to take possession as they say that the property is cursed. However, the place looks beautiful but scary though, a must-visit place if you come to Goa.
