Paranormal record / 2026
Appajipeta, Andhra Pradesh. Late September 2026. Night falls over a village of sheet and asbestos roofs. Then the stones begin. They land with a loud noise, every few minutes, mostly between 7 pm and 11 pm. Villagers cannot tell where they come from. Families lock themselves indoors. Some gather in the middle of the village rather than sleep at home. Police sent four constables. About 20 village youths went with them to watch a nearby hill, the suspected source. Stones fell on the roofs during the vigil. Police suspect mischief-makers, perhaps with slingshots. As of 5 October, no one has been caught.
Appajipeta is a small village in Pamidi mandal, Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh. The 2011 census counted 686 people in 172 houses. Most of the houses have asbestos roofs, according to the IANS wire service. Others are covered with sheets and tiles. Around the last days of September 2026, those roofs began to ring out at night. By 3 and 4 October, every report agreed. It had been going on for about a week.
