According to a study by researchers at the University of Westminster, watching a 90-minute horror film can burn around 113 calories, with ‘The Shining’ topping the leaderboard for the most calories burned (184).
And so, why not let your thrill-seeking impulse lead you to some of India’s most haunted travel destinations—from ancient forts that carry remnants of ill-fated love stories or deserted villages that remain shrouded in mystery. These locations carry ancient folklore and gripping narratives that can be as spine-tingling and adrenaline-pumping as ‘Longlegs’ or ‘Stree 2’, blending history and culture with a touch of the paranormal.
Have you visited any of these places? Share your experience in the comments.

Growing up, our mothers ran what can only be described as an unpaid protein-awareness campaign. Lentils, spinach, peas, everything arrived with the same promise: "This will make you strong, beta." We, meanwhile, stared mournfully at our plates, mentally trading dal for noodles.
Fast forward to adulthood, and somewhere between sore backs, inexplicable energy crashes, and jeans that suddenly felt judgmental, we realised that protein, once easily ignored, had become essential.
If you're a vegetarian wondering how to meet your daily protein goals, here are seven easy, protein-rich breakfast recipes to help you power through every day of the week.
Comment 'Protein' below and we'll send you all seven recipes straight to your DMs.

"Over the years, I've thought about my father's tryst with failure a few times — when I didn't get into a decent science college in Mumbai, or when I didn't crack the MBA CAT. I, especially, couldn't stop thinking about it when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, three months into my life as a freelancer, and writing assignments quickly dried up. This nugget of family history always helped me feel better. Like a soothing pat on the back, telling me it was going to be okay," says this writer.

If your mum had a signature hairstyle in the 90s, there's a decent chance it arrived at the salon on a torn magazine page with Madhuri Dixit's (@madhuridixitnene ) face on it. The voluminous blowout, the puffed fringe and the hair that moved like it had somewhere important to be. It wasn't sleek, it wasn't straight, and that was the point.
Happy birthday to the icon who made frizz aspirational 🎂

"It will take quite a few therapy sessions to understand why and at what point in my formative years I became a hyper-independent person. But for now, I just know I used to be. Asking for help or even accepting a sweet gesture from someone else, was never my forte. It wasn't like I didn't think I needed help; rather, I believed that getting used to someone being there for me would take away my self-reliance," says this writer.

You know those days where everything feels exhausting and you're moving through life like a permanent resident of the bura waqt zone? Then a complete stranger does something unexpectedly kind, and suddenly everything feels a little lighter.
It's strange how small gestures from people who owe you nothing can live rent-free in your head for years.
We asked Tweak Book Club members to share a moment where a stranger showed them kindness, and their responses will make you want to call your mom.
What’s one act of kindness a stranger showed you that you still remember?

Who knew sharks and grandmothers were operating on the same life rule? Keep moving, or else.
