House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths

A truly disturbing true crime story of the deaths of an entire family. The documentary was well made and interviewed the relevant parties. Though the last episode focused heavily on psychology and speculation, the first two episodes were utterly captivating.

The Burari deaths shook me like it did the whole of India in 2018 when the news broke of a mass suicide of all 11 members of a family. Although I knew a lot about the case as it started breaking, this documentary covers almost all the aspects by tracing the family's history and showing the whys and hows of the suicide. It's a 3-episode mind-numbing documentary that should be seen and discussed as much as we can. Props to the makers for discussing journalistic ethics and mental health.

I was dismissive when I stared this docu-series. My expectations were low. The first episode was all about the bizarre story and I lost interest in some parts. The second episode was filmed as the sensational conclusion which had led me almost to loose faith in humanity. BUT. But what redeemed the series for me was the third episode. It brought light to the actual reason and which I could accept and digest. The important issue that needs to be addressed in India and all over the world. Mental health.

Based on true events, this docuseries takes a deep dive into the horrific deaths of 11 members of a single family in Burari- Delhi.

3 generations wiped out in a single night, ghastly.. ain't it? This is one of the most bizarre & chilling cases to come to light in recent times.

Was it murder? Was it a ritual mass suicide or were there any occult practices at play. Why would a seemingly normal family,happy & financially well off suddenly commit suicide is what the series tries to decipher.

This was a one of the most sensational cases which rocked the country after the Arushi murder case and the Nithari killings.

This 3 part series is disturbing as much as it is intriguing. Well presented too. Not for the faint hearted !!

Adios 🙂
