“Ramu just took a stroll around the old dilapidated palace and crossed the dark verandah and stood in front of a hall partially closed. He just pushed open the door when a swarm of frightened bats fluttered and flew away in great hurry. Ramu was literally shaken and shocked by what he saw inside the room- dark and eerie. . There were two apparitions – Panki Ammayi lying on a cot half naked with a hand fan in her hand that swept away heat and mosquitos. She was engaged in a whispering conversation with another tall white man apparently hanging in the air with a white dhothi skirted around his waist and a long shawl on his left shoulder. He had a long cane walking stick in his left hand.”
