We often go outside, searching for what is within.’

‘INTO THE WOODS’ is a story of Jasmine, Bella, Ananya, Ahaan, Derek, Indira, and Joki. Each of them has lost a part of their soul and the answer to their inner turmoil lies in the dark, mysterious woods. Jasmine was a mortician who beautified the dead. She imbibed the importance of beauty on her daughter, Bella’s mind. When women turn up dead in Baro right after a visit by a beautician, the victims looking splendidly gorgeous, in impeccable make-up, the police are perplexed. Only a killer with a twisted mindset can dress up a crime scene to make it look spectacular. Simultaneously, bodies pile up in the woods of Baro as folklore of Dakini comes alive. Who revived the blood-sucking, evil spirit, Dakini? What is the story behind Bella’s scars? Who is the elusive beautician? When Baro is covered in mist, evil descends. Whom will it claim next?
