The narration of strange stories
Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati were all alone in a temple. At that time, Parvati after salutations to Lord Shiva requested My Dear Lord! Please tell me some puzzle stories that were never heard by anyone in this world.

Lord Shiva said, "Listen. I will tell you some strange stories according to your wish. These plots are not known to anyone in this world." Then, he continued telling her many stories. Exactly at the time, Lord Shiva was narrating the strange stories to Goddess Parvati but Betal, who came for offerings, listened to all the narrations of Lord Shiva. Goddess Parvati came to know of these stories popular on earth. She immediately rushed to Lord Shiva and angrily told him, "My Lord! You promised me to tell tales unknown to others and narrated me all the tales that are widely popular on the earth." Lord Shiva in a wink knew about Betal, the King of Ghost, a Shaivaite deity is also known as Shri Dev Vetoba, and as well as   Vetal, the king of ghosts had told these stories to his devotees and soon spreading all over as these stories are full  of adventure, mystery, and intrigue and interestingly help to learn about good moral Values!! Lord Shiva ordered, "Hi, Betal! I am admonishing you to turn into a celestial spirit to be retold with your wise puzzles to King Vikramaditya, who would answer them with wisdom.  Now, you must bring each story to life, hanging upside down as a ghost!" Read Vikram Betal, which interestingly help to learn about good moral Values!!.... Sivkishen Ji, Author
