Of Folklore And Jinn: A Horror series — Haunting stories and mysterious legends of the supernatural from the Indian Subcontinent.

(Book 1 of 3)

Of Folklore And Jinn is a chilling collection of original short stories inspired by true events and/or real historical sites—gripping recounts that are deeply unsettling—narrated to the Author as first hand experiences.

From the breathtaking Himalayas of Kashmir to the mesmerising historical ruins of Gujarat, and the deep suffocating ‘Gullys’ of Old Anarkali Bazaar—here, you will meet myths originating from the diverse South Asian culture—stories seeped in false superstitions giving rise to undeniable occult and the evil practice of black magic. Every story has its own eerie atmosphere as all of my narrators have their own unique story to tell—each one a genre within itself.

From the folktale of a village that actually becomes a terrifying reality to horrifying consequences of transpassing on Hallowed Grounds and a curse so sinister that even Death would be welcomed. Tales of Bhoots, Chudails and Jinns—the best of Asian Horror.

Set against the tapestry of the Subcontinent's rich history — spanning the pre-British era to the times of the Great Partition—all galvanized by modern urbanization — these fresh, culturally-rooted horrors will leave you profoundly disconcerted.

This cultural horror is perfect for fans of Asian horror, book clubs seeking spine-tingling discussions, or as a uniquely fascinating gift (Halloween, Birthdays and New Years)
