After Sacred Games, Netflix dives headfirst into the horror genre. The poster of Netflix action horror series, Ghoul is here and we are gearing up for the heebie-jeebies. ‘Ghoul’ is a chilling series about a prisoner who arrives at a remote military interrogation centre and turns the tables on his interrogators, exposing their most shameful secrets. All three episodes are set to be launched on 24 August.

Produced in partnership with Phantom Films, Ivanhoe and Blumhouse, it is written and directed by Patrick Graham, the creator of the iconic horror films, Paranormal Activity, Insidious and Sinister . Bolstered by performances by Radhika Apte and Manav Kaul, we can expect Ghoul to be nerve-racking, to say the least.

“<i>Ghoul</i> has been a collaborative effort to tell a story that is rooted in India, in a manner that will appeal to audiences around the world. Our goal is to create incredible entertainment that speaks to audiences from diverse cultures, and we’re very proud of this series, which is sure to be a must-watch in the horror genre globally.”

Ghoul literally means an evil spirit or a demon in Arabian mythology, associated with stealing graves and consuming human flesh off dead bodies. Sounds like an agreeably morbid and horrific treat for horror fans!

You can fight the demons of this world but what about the ones that aren't?

“<i>Ghoul</i> is a first in class, edge-of-your-seat horror series - that we are incredibly proud of. This is our second collaboration with Netflix (after <i>Sacred Games</i>) and yet another strong example of commitment towards high quality content. We are extremely proud of <i>Ghoul</i> - and cannot wait for audiences around the world to experience an elevated horror narrative from India.”

The trailer for the series is slated to launch on 10 July.
