Streaming platform Eros Now on Thursday announced a new psychological horror series ‘Barun Rai and the House on the Cliff’, starring actor Priyanshu Chatterjee.

Backed by Eros International and Unicorn Motion Pictures, the six-episode series will start streaming on Eros Now from January 28, the streamer said in a statement.

The show revolves around a gifted parapsychologist detective who has the power to see what the regular eyes cannot and gives audiences a glimpse into the dark paranormal power tormenting the fictional town of  Covid’s Head.

Chatterjee is known for his 2001 romantic-drama movie ‘Tum Bin’, PTI reported from Mumbai.

“‘Barun Rai and the House on the Cliff’ is a bit different from what we have seen before as it mixes the elements of science with horror. I would love to know the audiences’ reactions to this series,” Chatterjee said in a statement.

Set in the 1970s, ‘Barun Rai and the House on the Cliff’ narrates the story of Harmesh and Soumili, who move into their dream home unbeknownst to the spate of mysterious suicides plaguing the area and local police force.

‘Barun Rai…’ is directed and produced by Sam Bhattacharjee, who earlier served as a visual effects supervisor on films like ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ and ‘Gold’.

The series also features actors Sid Makkar, Nyra Banerjee, along with British actors Tony Richardson, George Dawson, Emma Galliano amongst others.
