There is a story of “The Bahla Demon“. Some Omanis believe that there is a “jinn” (spirit? angel? demon? ghost?) which haunts and has cursed the fort in the past. Some say it was built by magic and whenever they try to renovate it, it is said to fall down in other areas. The fort is currently closed for renovations.
