Kali River goonch attacks
were a series of fatal attacks on

believed to be perpetrated by
in three villages on the banks of the
, between 1998 and 2007. This is the subject of a TV documentary aired on 22 October 2008,
as well as an episode about the Kali River goonch attacks on the
Attacks
The first attack occurred in April 1998, when at 13:00, 17-year-old Dil Bahadur, while swimming in the river, was dragged underwater in front of his girlfriend and several eyewitnesses. No remains were found, even after a three-day search spanning 5 kilometers. Three months later, at Dharma Ghat, a young boy was pulled underwater in front of his father. No corpse was ever found.
Investigation
After an unsuccessful attempt was made at capturing one with a fishing rod, a funeral pyre was set up in order to lure one in. A record breaking 6 ft goonch was captured the day after, and was weighed at 75.5 kg (166 lbs), three times heavier than an average goonch. Although Wade estimated that the fish was strong and large enough to eat a small child, he stated on interview that he believed that larger specimens were likely to exist, and that the specimen he captured was not large enough to be the alleged maneater, based on the sizes of the victims.
These events were shown on his program River Monsters.

British biologist Jeremy Wade
volunteered to capture the perpetrator. Though originally skeptical of the truth behind the attacks, he later became intrigued because the attacks only occurred in a specific area spanning 4–5 miles. He was told by the villagers that the creature likely developed a taste for human flesh and had grown large after eating half burnt human remains discarded from funeral pyres
on the river banks. After examining the water where Bahadur had disappeared with a depth sounder
, Wade discounted the possibility of the boy having been dragged by a whirlpool
, as the attacks all occurred in areas without turbulence. Later, a kilometer away, a domestic water buffalo
was reportedly dragged underwater by a strange animal while drinking in water only one meter deep. Wade theorised that the creature would have had to have weighed 200–300 lbs in order to do so.
All three species of sympatric crocodile
were dismissed; saltwater crocodiles
were not known to travel so far inland and the jaw structure of gharials
prevents them from killing humans or buffalo. Mugger crocodiles
, the most common Indian species, did not inhabit the cold, torrential waters of the Kali River. Also, crocodiles had never been seen on land to bask or breed. Although bull sharks
were initially considered, an underwater investigation in the area where the buffalo disappeared by marine biologist Rick Rosenthal yielded no sightings of bull sharks. Furthermore, Wade believed that bull sharks would not have lived so far upriver, and there had been no sightings of dorsal fins breaking the water's surface. However, during the underwater investigation, a meter long goonch catfish was sighted, which Wade unsuccessfully tried to capture. Later underwater investigations yielded numerous group sightings of goonch, six of which were man-sized.

यह कहानी है उत्तराखंड में लोहागढ़ के चम्पावत जिले के छोटे से कस्बे कि जो ऐबी नमक बंगले में होने वाली भूतह घटनाओं पर आधारित है। यहाँ पर जिम कॉर्बेट ने एक नरभक्षी शेर को मारा था।
ऐबी नमक बंगला 1900 के दशक में उसके मालिक के नाम पर रखा गया था। इस ऐबी बंगले को बाद में एक हॉस्पिटल में बदला गया जहाँ परपर एक डॉक्टर लोगो कि मौत को पहले से ही बता देता था , उसके बाद वह उस मरीज़ को उस हॉस्पिटल में स्थित “मुक्ति घर” में भेज देता था और अगली सुबह ही उस मरीज़ कि मौत हो जाती थी। इसके बारे में अबी भी भ्रम है कि वो डॉक्टर मरीजो को मरता था या वो प्राकृतिक रूप से मरते थे।
ऐबी पुरे एरिया का पहला घर था जो कि उस पहाड़ी पर प्रेतो का गढ़ है । यहाँ पर कई भुत कि कहानिया प्रचलित है, जिसमे लोगो के अनुसार यहाँ “भूत कि ढांग” पर दो आत्माओं को रत को टहलते हुए देखा गया है। इस कहानी को लेकर ZEE TV पर प्रस्तूत “FEAR FILES” show में इसका रुपांतरण किया गया है जो एपिसोड काफी लोकप्रिय रहा है।
