Internet's reactions: “Lack of oxygen in the brain causes such incidents but in the mountains everyone has a story to tell,” a user said. “My wife had a personal experience in Hatu HPTDC lodge some 10 years back , we were driving to Reckong and were alone in the HPTDC lodge for an overbite site . I was dead tired and crashed as soon as I got on the couch . But she woke me up with some women crying and even singing , she was very disturbed whole night,” added another.ALSO READ: The Unseen City: Bengaluru's Haunted House and Ghostly Tales of Whitefield “She is called ‘Raantas’ in Kashmiri.

Why can’t it be a mosquito or a housefly?” joked another person. “Looks like a bear? The eyes reflect any source of light (which is coming from the camera's side),” added another.
