This week is some more legends and folklore, we decided to aim for India this week. First up we have a story called Betal Pachisi, there's other names for this story but its from a collection of short stories that compile one large story. It deals with betrayal, a weird backwards riddle game and a different take on vampires. After that we talk about the Bhuta (Bhut, Bhoota), meaning ghost in sanskrit, these are some interesting backwards walking spirits.
