Amrita Ghosh and Bhakti Shringarpure ask an age-old question about the ways in which we deal with the good, bad and ugly from our past. Humans try their utmost best to cope with the burdens of past relationships, traumas and memories using methods like therapy or engaging with alternative healing through psychics, astrologers, tarot cards and sometimes by attempting to connect with those in the afterlife. Writer of ghost stories Jessica Faleiro joins the podcast from Goa and speaks about her childhood encounter with a haunted house that altered the course of her life. Not only does Faleiro write gripping and frightening ghost stories, she also explores national and political hauntings that can help people understand collective, inherited trauma. The three wonder why psychological and scientific explanations seem to come up short and why we often gravitate to less proven, often mocked methods.
