7. SHADOWS OF SUNDARBANS

Rumors: Dark Lore From India

The rivers Ganga, Brahmaputra and Padma mingle and create the ever-changing delta known as the Sundarbans. This wild country of mangrove forests is like no other on earth. And its folklore is just as unique. Ghostly lights, a shapeshifting were-tiger who may be a god or a demon… and a benevolent lady of the forest. Why are so many strange tales born in the shadows of the Sundarbans?
