Ja Bhutiyo Edited by Shirshendu Mukhopadhyay [Hardcover]

Ghosts—entities of the past—are at once terrifying and fascinating. However, in recent times, our traditional figures of fear have become rather exasperated by the excessive proliferation of meaningless occult rituals and an overabundance of supernatural beings. In their struggle for existence, they plead with us to preserve them in this uneven battle. They, too, wish to breathe freely and survive in this world. At times, they even cry out, claiming that when it comes to inducing fear, none can rival them.

This book captures the essence, narratives, and intricate characteristics of such vanishing traditional ghostly figures. For the first time in this genre, fiction and non-fiction have been woven together in a single volume. Each entity is presented with detailed research-based information alongside a fictional story crafted around them.

Bringing together some of the most renowned horror writers of contemporary Bengali literature, Ja Bhutiyo is an anthology of timeless supernatural beings—stories that might be best left unread.

⚠ Warning – This book is strictly for mature readers.
