RITU JARWAL
Where Silence Is More Terrifying Than Screams
About Author
Ritu Jarwal does not treat fear as a mere storytelling device—it is, for her, the deepest human emotion. She believes the most terrifying sound in life is not a scream, but silence—the kind that buries truth, conceals pain, and echoes endlessly within the human soul.
This philosophy forms the foundation of her debut novel, “Veerangarh – Jahaan Khamoshi Bhi Cheekhti Hai (Where Silence Screams)”.
Drawn to stories that intertwine love, loss, and psychological dread, Ritu’s writing explores fear that grips both the mind and the heart. Her narratives do not simply unfold; they penetrate, compelling readers to feel the characters’ anguish rather than merely observe it.
Inspired by human psychology, abandoned places, and music, her stories often emerge in moments of deep solitude. Veerangarh is not just her first book—it is a bold declaration of a literary journey into stories that terrify, disturb, and awaken something long buried within.
About The book
A village shrouded in fear.
An ancient mansion sealed by silence.
A spirit that never forgot love—or betrayal.
Veerangarh is a place where terror once echoed through screams—until one day, everything went silent. At the heart of the village stands an abandoned mansion, believed to be haunted by Mohini, a vengeful spirit bound to her lost love. When her rage abruptly ceased, the resulting silence proved far more terrifying than chaos itself.
Years later, Nitin, a skeptic untouched by superstition, arrives in Veerangarh. His presence disturbs the stillness. Whispers return. Strange sounds awaken. Death resumes its cycle.
Unknowingly, Nitin becomes trapped in a time loop, reliving the same horror again and again—each repetition revealing deeper connections between love, loss, death, and the mansion’s cursed past.
Everything is intertwined.
Nothing is accidental.
Escape demands truth.
Will Nitin uncover the secret buried beneath Veerangarh’s silence?
Or will the village claim him as it has claimed so many before?
