Some years ago, the same stories were heard about Bekal fort and beach in Kerala. And then they found smuggling activities going on!
Whatever said and done, I would not want to visit it even in broad daylight 😀
If this is true, then I would love to act like ACP Pradyuman and say "Daya kuch toh gadbad hai". :p
Interesting. Did you visit the beach and see anything ?
Sure sounds spooky. I'd rather steer clear. [-(
