Brahma Rakshasa


In the heart of rural India, whispers of the Brahma Rakshasa still chill the air—a terrifying spirit cursed to wander between worlds, born from the sins of a Brahmin.

When revered tantric Sadhananda Shastri dies, his final words warn young Jagan of the demon’s awakening. Soon, the village is stalked by shadows, rituals turn ominous, and blood ties unravel under the weight of ancestral sins. To survive, Jagan must confront his forefather’s curse and summon forgotten wisdom before the malevolent spirit claims them all.


Blending Indian mythology, folklore, and supernatural horror, this gripping tale reveals the deadly price of ancient transgressions—and the thin line between redemption and damnation.


Perfect for fans of mythological horror, supernatural thrillers, and dark folklore, Brahma Rakshasa will keep you turning pages long after the lights go out.
