About This Book

The Hungry Stones is a famous supernatural short story by Rabindranath Tagore, originally written in Bengali. The story is set in a remote palace along the riverbank, which is rumored to be haunted by the spirits of its past inhabitants.

The narrative follows a government official who stays overnight in the abandoned palace. He becomes captivated by the palace’s eerie beauty and the mysterious aura surrounding it. As night falls, he begins to experience strange visions, hearing whispers and sensing ghostly presences that seem to replay the palace’s past. The line between reality and the supernatural gradually blurs, creating a tense, suspenseful atmosphere.

The Hungry Stones explores themes of obsession, memory, and the lingering presence of history. Tagore’s poetic language and psychological depth make it a compelling example of Indian supernatural fiction, blending horror with cultural and historical resonance, and it remains a classic in Indian literature.
