Plot

Rehan travels to Shimla to prepare Glen Manor for sale but learns it's haunted after the caretaker dies. Initially skeptical, he encounters supernatural events and discovers a letter from Meera Sabharwal, revealing she was raped by her piano teacher, Iyer, in 1936, and her spirit remains trapped by Iyer’s spirit. Rehan brings a psychic, Mrs. Stevens, who warns him, but he stays and is attacked by Iyer's spirit. The next morning, a ragpicker sends Rehan back to 1936. He befriends Meera and attempts to protect her from Iyer, but events unfold as before, with Meera killing Iyer. Injured, Rehan warns Meera about future dangers. They seek help from a Sufi Baba to break the curse. During the journey, Iyer’s spirit possesses Margaret, but Rehan and Meera reach the Dargah. The Sufi Baba directs them to a well that can end Iyer's curse. Rehan successfully throws Meera's pendant into the well, defeating Iyer's spirit, but accidentally returns to 2011. Rehan finds a letter from Meera thanking him for freeing her and sees she lived a happy life, indicating Glen Manor is no longer haunted.

Cast

Reception

Critical response

Upon release, the film opened to mixed critical reviews. The Times of India while giving it three stars out of five stated "if the film works -- and it works quite well -- is only because of the special effects of the film. Experiencing the horror in 3D is indeed a novel experience for the viewer, specially since it is smartly done."[12] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave it three and a half stars and concluded that "Haunted is for today's movie savvy audience. It succeeds in keeping you tense and edgy, as a true poltergeist/horror flick should. There are scenes and situations aplenty to shock and astound the viewer coupled with the 3D effects, the prosthetics, the background score, an absorbing screenplay and deft handling of the subject material."[13] Shubhra Gupta of the Indian Express rated it with two stars saying that "the only new thing about 'Haunted' is that it is Bollywood horror in 3 D. The rest of it, by which we mean the principal stuff that makes it a film—story, location, characters—are all same old same old."[14] Anupama Chopra of NDTV Movies awarded the film one and a half stars describing it as "an absolutely ridiculous horror movie that works better as comedy, unintentional of course."[15] Preeti Arora of Rediff also gave it one and a half stars saying that "Haunted fails at reviving the age old haunted-house premise, bringing nothing new to the platter."[16]

Box office

According to boxofficeindia.com, Haunted – 3D recorded the highest opening ever for an Indian horror film.
