The Village that Slithers, in Shetpal, Maharashtra,INDIA

-



Snake worship happens to be an ancient and widespread practice in India, but there’s one town in Maharashtra that follows it way too religiously. The village has established a custom for every household, wherein it is mandatory for the house to have a resting place for cobras in the rafters of their ceilings.


  • The Mystery: The snakes here, it seems, are pretty friendly. The reason it one of the most mysterious places in India is because no snake bite has ever been reported in this village.

This blood-red downpour, when collected by the locals, turned into clean water with red particles settled at the bottom .    The Theory: The scientists, after much analysis and debate, have zeroed in on one explanation for this occurrence.
