Bhutalogy

Bhutalogy is a psychological horror-thriller that blends folklore, cosmic dread, and modern isolation into a terrifying journey. At its heart is Bikun, a young, unemployed man trying to laugh through his failures. He doesn’t believe in ghosts or curses—until a train that shouldn’t exist drags him into a world where reality itself is fractured. One moment, he’s on a crowded railway coach. The next, he’s surrounded by lifeless passengers with hollow eyes. Whispers bleed from speakers, reels warp into grotesque visions, and platforms drip with stains that aren’t rust. But that’s only the beginning. The darkness follows him home, where an old bike, a dying flashlight, and his father become his only defense against faceless shadows that run beside them, laughing, jingling, always chasing. Every time Bikun escapes, he realizes he hasn’t escaped at all. The boundaries between reality, nightmare, and death keep collapsing. Is he alive? Dreaming? Or already claimed by something that feeds on fear itself? Themes woven in the novel: The fragility of reality – What happens when you can no longer trust what you see? Humor vs horror – Can sarcasm protect you from the abyss, or does it make you an easier target? Isolation in a connected world – Even with phones, reels, and memes, you’re utterly alone when the dark comes. As the story deepens, Bikun discovers that the horrors are not random. The train, the faceless figure, the whispers—they are connected, part of a hidden cycle of cursed journeys. A cycle that has been claiming people for decades. And this time, the cycle has chosen him.
