In the haunted village of Devipur, no one dares speak of the girls who vanish under the full moon. Whispers say a ghost roams the hills, a girl with a lantern whose glow marks the next to disappear.
Fifteen-year-old Arjun doesn't believe in village superstitions. Until his sister vanishes without a trace... and the last thing he sees is a flicker of golden light at the edge of the trees.
Driven by grief and the refusal to forget, Arjun begins a journey across cursed villages, forgotten graveyards, and wind-swept ruins, where each step reveals a deeper horror and a deeper truth. The Lantern Girl is no myth. She is a memory made of fire. And she is not the monster the stories claimed.
What begins as a boy's quest to find answers turns into something far greater: a reckoning with a past buried in silence and a legacy of girls whose names were never meant to be erased.
The Lantern Girl is a chilling, lyrical folk horror tale about the weight of memory, the cost of forgetting, and the light that refuses to die.
Some ghosts seek revenge.
She seeks remembrance.
