With HAUNTED, Bhatt merges the deadly combo of horror with 3D effectively. It’s an absorbing and gripping edge of the seat horror film that keeps the mercury rising in those 2.15 hours. This movie is not for the faint-hearted…

When you read such lines, then you definitely want to pay visit to nearest Cinemax at least once. From the makers of successfull movies like GHULAM [action drama], KASOOR [suspense thriller], RAAZ [horror] and AWARA PAAGAL DEEWANA [action/comedy], 1920 [Horror], etc Vikram brings horror in 3D format for the first time in India.

Set in the misty mountains, HAUNTED tells the story of the sprawling Glen Manor, a mansion with a secret past and a haunted present. Rehan [Mahaakshay], an estate agent, visits Glen Manor to complete its sale, which his father had initiated. But he realizes that certain mysterious occurrences in the manor are out to jeopardize the sale. However, when he investigates these inexplicable happenings, he discovers a secret. A spirit that had trapped another spirit in the mansion for as many as 80 years.
