The series comprises of several horror stories and Bipasha will feature in each episode of the programme. “She is a part of the story but not inside it.

“For most of the directors, it is a first on television. They have a background in films which would add to the larger cinematic experience for the viewer. Even the spooks are not the kind you have seen on TV before,” she added.
