About this Event

Speaker: Sanjoy Roy

The first spirit Sanjoy Roy encountered was one that haunted his ancestral house in Calcutta, India; he was five then. A few years later, the otherworldly made its presence felt again in his parents' sprawling bungalow in Lutyens' Delhi. Over the decades that followed, he and his family and friends have come across a variety of apparitions, spectres and phantoms in diverse locations both in India and abroad. Some of these beings are benign or at most mischievous, but others - lost, disturbed souls - are angrier and have to be placated.

For Sanjoy, his ability to sense and interact with the supernatural is not something remarkable, but part of his everyday reality. As he sees it, there is perhaps a dimension parallel to ours, one that is teeming with spirits and souls. Join Sanjoy, author of There's a Ghost in My Room (HarperCollins India), for a fascinating travelogue through that mysterious world.
