Ya Klap Ban

Randomly picked this Series as it was showing as recently launched in Netflix and went for binge watching. Best part is this being restricted with 6 episodes and no lead for next season.

Must admit that this series is a gem. Though the latter part of story is predictable, overall flow was organic. Screenplay was brilliant and the performance of every single character was top notch. Just loved the lead actress, police inspector role and the other character portrayed as Mom. Production quality of the whole series was fantastic and the writing as very good.

Just go for a Friday night binge watch and it's completely worth. See this series without any spoilers.

I binged this yesterday in one day, which is literally the first time I've ever done that. I absolutely loved the story, heart-shattering though it was in the end.

This does start out as your classical haunted mansion story, but takes a mind-blowing twist halfway through and turns into something completely different.

Be aware! You may be required to do some thinking of your own (refreshingly so!), which I can tell neither one of the two 1-star reviews (at the time that I'm writing this) felt either inclined, or able to, do.

Everything does get explained indeed. If you're walking away confused or with questions unanswered, you simply haven't watched it properly.

Always nice to come across something that dares to ask some mental effort of its viewers, as opposed to offering a story so boring and dumbed down that you need not engage with it in the least.

Get ready to watch this show! The first few episodes have some ghosts, so they might feel a little scary. But don't worry-it's really worth watching. The story is very interesting and exciting, and you might want to watch the whole series in one go! The characters feel real because they have problems and make mistakes, just like real people. You can't help but care about them and hope they do well. The writing is amazing, especially at the end, when all the parts of the story come together in a perfect way. The ending is so good that it feels like the team deserves a round of applause! Also, it was a brave choice to have three female main characters. Great job to the team!
