Do you know that ghosts are scared of dogs?

Written by Usma Chakma
Illustrated by Tuku Chakma

This story is one of the folklore of the Chakma community. It is based on a myth- whenever a dog barks abruptly at night, they may be sensing the presence of a ghost, hence, there is a belief that you will always be safe if a dog is around. This story was first written by Niranjan Chakma, translated and transliterated by Usma Chakma.
