The ruins of Bhangarh Fort in the Rajasthan state in India are known for
being the most hunted place in south Asia. According to one of the
myths, Bhangarh was cursed by Guru Balu Nath (Baba Balanath), who
originally sanctioned the construction but warned that his sacred
meditating place lies nearby and should the palace reach the size which
would cast a shadow big enough to reach his forbidden retreat, the city
would fall into ruin. Ignorant of the warning, Ajab Singh – one of
dynasty’s descendants raised the palace to a height that cast the shadow
on the Balu Nath’s retreat and the city was cursed. There are several
other myths and legends that explain the reasons why the fort was
abandoned overnight and never re-inhabited, but they all revolve around
the fact that the city was cursed and is now haunted by ghosts.

That is a new story for me. I have visited Bhangarh twice and the guide told us a different story each time and yours is entirely different too. I read different stories on the net too and one of them posted here : http://www.indiatravelforum.in/threads/bhangarh-the-most-haunted-place-on-earth.359/ is again entirely different. There are probably dozens of different stories and none of them have any written account from what I know.
I would like to add that I did not see any ghosts when I went there :)
