Jekhane Bhooter Bhoy
2012 film by Sandip Ray
Jekhane Bhooter Bhoy (English: Where there is a fear of ghosts) is a 2012 Indian Bengali-language anthology horror film directed by Sandip Ray. There are three short ghost stories in this film.
Plot
The film starts with Tarinikhuro or Tarinicharan Banerjee, one of Satyajit Ray's characters, telling some boys from his fanclub about ghosts. In the first and second stories the ghosts he talks about were Satyajit Ray's Anath Babur Bhoy and Brown Saheber Bari. The last one was Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay’s Bhoot Bhobishyot. (Initially four stories were supposed to be filmed, but the fourth one, Lucknow-er Duel was dropped later to avoid the length).
Anath Babur Bhoy
Anath Babur Bhoy (Anath Babu's Terror) revolves around the story of Anathbandhu Mitra, who is a ghost hunter. He, along with his friend, Sitesh Babu, narrate their experience regarding a dilapidated haunted house, Haldar Mansion, "Haldar Bari".
Brown Saheber Bari
Brown Saheber Bari (Mr. Brown's Cottage) is about "Simon", a mysterious entity whom the owner of the cottage, a British gentleman loved dearly.
