Indian workers refuse to demolish “haunted” hospital.
Scared workers in India say they will not go back to work because their building site is haunted.
The men downed tools at the city hospital in Kolkata, a city in eastern India, and walked out after hospital bosses said they wanted them to demolish one of the old buildings and build a new modern one.
Worker Ram Lal told local media: “We do not want to demolish the building because ghosts live there.
“We have often seen images wafting in and out of the place at night.
“We cannot fight ghosts so we should not and will not demolish the building.”
A hospital spokesman said: “We do not believe such strange stories in this day and age.
“If these men won’t do the work, then machines will and we’ll hire another firm with bulldozers to do the job.”
