Bramayugam releases today in theaters

Indian horror movies take you on a chilling ride and they often mix classic scares like haunted houses and evil spirits with unique elements from Indian folklore and mythology. Imagine vengeful ghosts in beautiful sarees, witches with magical powers, and curses tied to ancient temples.

These movies often explore social issues too, like the mistreatment of women like you see in Bulbbul or the dangers of superstition in Tumbbad. Some are outright scary while others mix humour with horror. They're perfect for those who want a fresh spin on the genre, with a taste of Indian culture and traditions.
