Parnashavarir Shaap

Web Series Review: Parnashavrir Shaap ( Bengali Horror Series streaming on Hoichoi)

A Bhoot Chaturdashi 2023 release and a directorial debut by Parmabratha Chattopadhyay, Parnashavrir Shaap is a horror series weaving together the intricate threads of mythology and horror very well , keeping the viewers engaged all throughout.

2 couples are on a holiday in the remote hills when one of the ladies becomes possessed by an evil spirit after touching an idol in the deep jungle. The spirit also threatens to wipe out the very existence of the village they are staying in.

Their only saviour is an old faith healer who might just have what it takes to help them scrape through this situation alive!!

Chiranjeet Chakraborty as the faith healer performs splendidly and gives a restrained performance. Others in the cast Gaurav Chakraborty, Anindita Bose ,Arna Mukhopadhyay among others have done a decent job.

The cinematography is just awesome, the foggy exteriors and the eerie ambience created keeps u hooked right from the word go. There are a lot of jump-care moments especially in the first 4 episodes.

The ending isn't bad either and the series ends on a logical note !! This series spans 7 episodes , with each episode having a runtime of around 20 mins!!

Definitely Bingewatch-worthy for afficianados of the horror genre!!

Going with 3 stars out of 5 for this one.. adios🙂!!
