'Jekhane Bhooter Bhoy' (English: 'Where there is a fear of ghosts') is an Indian Bengali film directed by Sandip Ray. There are three short ghost stories in this film.

Plot



The film starts with 'Tarinikhuro' or Tarinicharan Banerjee, one of Satyajit Ray's characters, telling some boys from his fanclub about ghosts. In the first and second stories the ghosts he talks about were Satyajit Ray's 'Anath Babur Bhoy' and 'Brown Saheber Bari'. The last one was Sharadindu Bandyopadhyays 'Bhoot Bhobishyot'. (Initially four stories were supposed to be filmed, but the fourth one, 'Lucknow-er Duel' was dropped later to avoid the length).

Anath Babur Bhoy

Anath Babur Bhoy ( Anath Babu's Terror ) revolves around the story of Anathbandhu Mitra, who is a ghost hunter. He, along with his friend, Sitesh Babu, narrate their experience regarding a dilapidated haunted house, Haldar Mansion, "Haldar Bari".

Brown Saheber Bari

Brown Saheber Bari ( Mr. Brown's Cottage ) is about "Simon", a mysterious entity whom the owner of the cottage, a British gentleman loved dearly.

Bhoot Bhobishyot

The story is based on a peculiar relationship between a writer and a friendly 19th century ghost. It is a light-hearted story with a memorable twist at the end of it all.
