Recurrent apparition, residential — Kumaon hills, Uttarakhand · Received 14 Feb 2026

A household of four reports a lamp in the disused storeroom found lit on three mornings across five weeks. The room has been locked since the grandmother’s death; the key is held by one family member only. Two accounts agree in detail; the key-holder’s conflicts with the others on the sequence of mornings — a conflict the household itself acknowledges.

Finding — The physical record supports that the lamp burned. It does not support who or what burned it, and the witness record is internally conflicted. The file stays open pending a documented monitoring period.

Apparitional figure, sleep-adjacent — Indiranagar, Bengaluru · Received 03 Jan 2026

A tenant reports a tall figure in the corridor at 2:14 am — quarterly, always after late-night work, always between the hallway mirror and the bedroom door. Site visit at the reported hour: a streetlight through the stairwell window produces a standing human-form shadow at the exact position. Recreation photographed.

Finding — The physical record supports the shadow explanation; the sighting conditions reproduce it. What is worth keeping is the witness’s own question: why the mind reaches for a spirit before a streetlight — which is a Mirror question, not a Field one.

Shrine phenomenon, public — Tripurāri Ghat, Varanasi · Received 22 Mar 2026

Three pilgrims, independently and without coordination, report the same phenomenon across two evenings: a second flame beside the sanctum lamp that follows no draft and leaves no wax. The shrine’s keeper confirms he has “seen it for years” and declines documentation.

Finding — No physical record exists; accounts are sincere but unverifiable. Without documentation the file cannot advance beyond Reported — which is exactly what the register is for.

Commercial fraud, paranormal branding — Gurugram, Haryana · Received 09 May 2026

A complainant, having paid ₹2.1 lakh across four escalating “tantric remedies” for a workplace dispute, approaches the platform. Payment receipts, dated chat transcripts, the practitioner’s archived guarantee language, and two consumer-forum orders against the same office — the record is documentary end to end.

Finding — The documentary record supports the account completely. The paranormal framing was the costume; the escalating ladder was the machine. Serves as the bridge case between the Paranormal and Occult doors.
