About the Book:
This is the second volume of selected writings from “Aloukik Rahasya”—the first Bengali periodical dedicated to supernatural and paranormal themes, originally edited by Shrikhiroda Prasad Vidyavinod in 1910.
-
The book presents carefully curated stories from the second year of the magazine, which was more than just a collection of ghost tales.
-
It offers a micro-history of society in early 20th-century Bengal, weaving together mystery, folklore, and cultural anthropology.
-
Despite its short lifespan, the magazine maintained a distinct pre-colonial character, capturing the Bengali psyche's deep-seated engagement with the supernatural.
-
These stories reflect not only the uncanny but also the intellectual curiosity and socio-cultural mindset of the time.
A unique archival treasure, this volume stands as an essential read for readers interested in Bengali supernatural literature, history, and rare periodical culture
