'Ghoul' trailer: Radhika Apte leaves an indelible impression in this Netflix horror

Days after releasing the first original series from India, titled Sacred Games, Netflix finally has unveiled the first trailer of Indian horror series Ghoul, starring Radhika Apte. Based on an Arabic folklore, Ghoul is set in a covert detention centre where a newly recruited interrogator, Nida (Radhika Apte), who turned against her father as an anti-government protestor, discovers that some of the terrorists held at the centre are not from this world.

The trailer which is one and a half minute long, is intense and spine-chilling. The video also sees Radhika in a different role, and she sure is going to leave an indelible impression with the series. 

“Ghoul is a first in class, edge-of-your-seat horror series - that we are incredibly proud of. This is our second collaboration with Netflix (after Sacred Games) and yet another strong example of commitment towards high quality content.
