Three Charms, One Revenge

This isn’t just a story—it’s like a real-life curse. It’s about a brave 18-year-old girl who wanted to take care of her family. But she had no idea that her life’s scariest chapter would start one night, after eating a bowl of tripe.
It was January 2019. A girl named Alo moved to Gazipur with her mom and older brother. Her parents were splitting up because of family problems, so Alo stepped up to help her mom and brother. On January 1, she started working at a garment factory.
Their house in Gazipur had an old mango tree right next to the bathroom. The tree was strangely quiet, like it was hiding something dark from a long time ago. But no one thought it was dangerous back then.
A few days after starting her job, Alo began waking up every night at exactly 3 a.m. to take a bath. Every time, she heard a soft voice whispering in her ear, “Don’t be scared, I’m here. Go take your bath.” Weirdly, Alo wasn’t afraid. She’d bathe and go back to sleep without a problem.
Her mom noticed Alo waking up at the same time every night to bathe. When she asked about it, Alo didn’t know why she was doing it. This went on for three months straight.
Then came the terrifying night—March 8, 2019.
Alo’s dad suddenly came to Dhaka to visit. He brought fish, duck meat, and tripe. That evening, her mom cooked a big meal. But as soon as Alo ate some tripe, she felt horrible pain in her stomach. The pain was so bad that she passed out.
What happened next wasn’t just physical pain—it was the start of something supernatural.
Even while unconscious, Alo was laughing one moment and crying loudly the next. That night, 15 healers came to help her, but none of them could do anything. Some got sick themselves, and others ran away from the house. Around 3 a.m., Alo opened her eyes and saw something so horrifying that no one could handle it. She screamed and fainted again.
The next morning, she woke up in her family’s home in Sherpur. She had no idea how she got there. But that evening, the same strange presence took over her body again—laughing, crying, screaming.
A religious scholar from India came to help. He started treatment, putting needles under her fingernails, drawing blood, and tying three charms on her body. Each charm cost 3,001 taka.
The next morning, all three charms were gone from her body!
The scholar said, “I can’t cure her.”
Alo and her family went to another healer. For three months, he tried to help, but nothing worked. Alo felt ice-cold all the time, and at night, something invisible wrapped around her. In her sleep, that unseen presence held her tight—but she started feeling like it wasn’t alone. There were others around her.
Then came a man they called “Nana,” the father of their neighbor’s wife. He was an experienced healer. At first, Alo felt a little better with his treatment. The strange presence that seemed to protect her told her one day, “Give me something, and all your family’s problems will go away.”
Alo believed it and told Nana. He said, “That’s a good thing. It’s here to protect you.”
The next day, Nana brought snacks—samosas, puris, and sweets. Alo ate them, not knowing that by eating, she was closing the door to her freedom.
Nana trapped the “good” spirit in a tree and sent 11 terrifying, violent spirits into Alo’s body. That’s when her real suffering began.
These spirits attacked her every two days. If she didn’t obey them, they bit her or beat her. She couldn’t tell anyone. The pain and fear built up inside her like a fire she couldn’t put out.
Nana also made sure she couldn’t get married for 14 years. Alo would stay up at night, wondering, “Why doesn’t God just take me away?”
What she saw and went through is so awful that most people wouldn’t have the courage to talk about it. But Alo fought. She’s still fighting. She says,
“I’m as strong as a healer now. I could hurt people with my power if I wanted to, but I won’t. I don’t hurt others. But I still haven’t fully saved myself…”
This story doesn’t end here.
Alo still carries the shadows of that cursed past. There are things she hasn’t said—because those terrifying truths are so dark, they might disturb anyone who hears them.
