The 1920 franchise is one of Bollywood's best-known period horror series, with four standalone tales of possession and the supernatural. Here's how to watch them all.
Directed by Vikram Bhatt, 1920 (2008) told the story of a newlywed couple who move into a haunted mansion, only for the wife to become possessed by a vengeful spirit. Starring Rajneesh Duggal and Adah Sharma in her film debut, it was a surprise hit that launched a franchise of period horror films set in colonial-era India and Britain.
π Release Order
Here are all four 1920 films in release order.
- 1920 (2008)
- 1920: The Evil Returns (2012)
- 1920: London (2016)
- 1920: Horrors of the Heart (2023)
Each 1920 film tells a standalone story with new characters, connected by their period setting and themes of possession and exorcism, so you don't need to watch them in sequence.
π Story Chronology
Since there's no shared storyline, chronology matches release order. Here's a quick guide to each film.
- 1920 (2008) β Rajneesh Duggal and Adah Sharma
- 1920: The Evil Returns (2012) β Aftab Shivdasani and Tia Bajpai
- 1920: London (2016) β Sharman Joshi and Meera Chopra
- 1920: Horrors of the Heart (2023) β Avika Gor, directed by Krishna Bhatt
Which Order Should You Choose?
Start with the original 1920. It's the most celebrated entry, with eerie atmosphere and a memorable possession story that drew comparisons to The Exorcist. After that, you can watch the sequels in any order, though release order lets you see how the franchise changed tone and style over 15 years. 1920: Horrors of the Heart is notable for being directed by Vikram Bhatt's daughter, Krishna Bhatt, bringing a fresh voice to the series.
