Believe it or not this ghost story is bound to give goose bumps to all. A family in India was living with the dead body of a woman for 10 months to ward off spirits, according to reports. The family comprised of the dead woman's son, brother and mother.

According to the Nagercoil police, the dead woman's brother believed that the body would keep ghosts away. So the family was living with the dead body. The family has been scheduled for psychiatric tests.

The police was informed by a neighbor of fowl smell emanating from the house. The highly decomposed remains of the dead body was found wrapped in a bed sheet by the police at the residence of the queer family.

Truly novel way to prevent ghosts from haunting your home...phew.
