Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii , Good Morning

If you know some one staying in Pune let them know this. If you are in pune, do go through this story COZ, its a real one. Read this true story...and let everybody you know in and around Pune especially University Road..........

My friend lives in Deccan... One day he went to University Roadto visit his
uncle for some days as his parents had to attend a wedding in Lonavla. One
evening he and some other of my college friends went to Adlabs for a movie.
He had so much fun that he forgot that it's very late.
He caught the last PMT to University Road..... he reached University
Road around midnight...... He had to walk about a mile from the bus stop to
home.... As he was walking alone, he could sense that the night felt
very creepy as it was so dark. While walking, he was astonished to see an
old weird-looking guy selling some books. It was a very unusual thing to
see a thing like that.....

It got the shivers ! on him when he noticed that his old guy was unusually pale and staring at him... The old guy said "Son why don't you buy a book...it would keep you company".

Then my friend did something which he would regret for the rest of his life. My friend started to act brave & thought why not & had a look at his collections...
My friend's hair started to stand on end as he noticed that all the
books were related to supernatural activities...but he found one that was
very interesting.

So he asked the old man "how much is it, uncle?"
The old guy replied, "Well son...this is an interesting book...it's
only for Rs 250.

My friend was shocked and said "but...but... it's expensive"

This time the old man stared which freaked my friend.
My friend did not want to cross this scary old man, so he quickly checked
all his pockets & found Rs.200 & said "This is all I have." The old guy replied "It's OK son... you can have the book for that price"

As my friend was just about to run for home...the old man called back &
said "Son ... whatever happens, don't ever flip the book to it's last
page... remember these words or you will regret...!!!!!"

My friend nodded and never looked back ... Reaching home...he quickly
asked his Uncle whether there was any new old book seller nearby?
The Uncle replied " I haven't seen him but ....we've heard that
there's 1 old man who comes once in a while during full moon nights but heard
that there is something creepy about it...why son?"

My friend freaked out... he told his uncle "nothing uncle... just
asking". He started reading the book with the old man's parting words on his
mind...At night, 2 o'clock, as he went to bed, a gush of wind blew which
chilled him up to his bones. At that point, he noticed the wind had
blown th e pages to its last page. He remembered what the old man has
said!
But we humans tend to have the tendency to know. Out of curiosity, he
flipped to the last page & fainted... What he saw at the last page
is stated below:

Don't look further down if you have a weak heart
