An orphanage with a cremation shares grounds far from Kokata, beside the river Jalangi. The tranquil setting changes into something frightening as night falls. A bat colony soars over the orphanage's ceiling, the river's water turns pitch-black, wolves howl in the direction of it, and dense fog envelops the surrounding countryside. There aren't many people crossing the river at that time. Recently, a strange presence has also begun to frequent the crematoriums in Kolkata. Unnoticed by the general public, a very sinister ceremony and its terrible results are in progress. Himadrikishore Dasgupta has written an evocative story with a spooky conclusion that will stick with you long after you finish the book. 'Jalangir Andhakare' is eerie and incredibly intriguing, giving the dark form.
