Raj Ramachandran

Raj Ramachandran was a 7-year-old child who was shot to death, along with his 36-year-old mother Kalpara, by his 40-year-old father Natarajan, who then committed suicide in the family home at at 12376 Clareth Drive in the Crossfields neighborhood of Herndon on August 3, 1998.[1][2]

The ghosts of both Raj and his 11-year-old sister Reha, who was mortally wounded in the shooting and died on August 5, continue to haunt the home where they were murdered.[3][4][5]
