Netflix has just released the first trailer for their first foray into the Indian horror genre with Ghoul. The upcoming miniseries is part of a five-year partnership to produce genre films in India between Blumhouse, Ivanhoe Pictures, and the India-based Phantom Films.
“It has been a great experience working closely with Netflix and our partners at Phantom and Ivanhoe to produce Ghoul,” Blumhouse’s Jason Blum said in a statement. “This is Blumhouse’s first foray into the horror genre in India and we’re excited to share this project with horror enthusiasts around the world.”
“Ghoul is a thrilling horror series, both frightening and insightful. Its high production value, a chilling performance from Radhika Apte, and quality writing are sure to scare Indian and global audiences alike,” said Simran Sethi, director of international originals for Netflix.
“Ghoul is a first in class, edge-of-your-seat horror series – that we are incredibly proud of,” said Vikramaditya Motwane of Phantom Films. “This is our second collaboration with Netflix (after Sacred Games) and yet another strong example of commitment towards high-quality content. We are extremely proud of Ghoul – and cannot wait for audiences around the world to experience an elevated horror narrative from India.”
“Ghoul has been a collaborative effort to tell a story that is rooted in India, in a manner that will appeal to audiences around the world,” added Kilian Kerwin of Ivanhoe Pictures. “Our goal is to create incredible entertainment that speaks to audiences from diverse cultures, and we’re very proud of this series, which is sure to be a must-watch in the horror genre globally.”
The three-episode series will be coming to us from director Patrick Graham and the series will star Radhika Apte and Manav Kaul. Netflix is producing along with Phantom Films, Ivanhoe and Blumhouse.
