‘Super creepy’ Netflix series about real-life murders is so disturbing fans are giving potential viewers warning

The docuseries focuses on a harrowing true crime case in India

It’s fairly normal nowadays for a series to come with a warning beforehand.

Without spoiling the show, letting people know of potential triggers before they watch is simply the right thing to do. For those looking for an easy chill watch after work, they'll know to turn something off, or for the sickos of the world, it will just ramp up their excitement.

That is before you even into the world of weird and uber-specific warnings, like the recent one before The Boys’ season four finale in the aftermath of the Trump assassination attempt.

A Netflix series, however, is so distressing that not only is the documentary itself giving viewers a warning, but even those recommending it are making sure fans know what they’re in for before tuning in.

The true-crime documentary looks at an absolutely shocking set of real-life murders in a series that is sure to stay with you.

House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths explores the harrowing incident that happened in 2018 in India, which saw a community be rocked by the heartbreaking revelation that 11 members of the same family were found dead in their homes. Here’s the trailer:

10 members of the family were all found at home hung from the ceiling, blindfolded, gagged, and with their arms tied behind their backs.

As well as this, the grandmother was found on the ground, appearing to have been strangled.

The family ranged from the grandmother, who was 77, all the way down to her five grandchildren, all of whom were found dead.

Whilst it was initially thought to just be a regular suicide case, the further the case is dug into – the more dark secrets that are revealed about the family and their motives.

The show, which was released in 2021, opens every episode with the warning ‘the following series contains graphic depictions of suicide which some viewers may find troubling'.

Fans on LADbible's Facebook group ‘Netflix Bangers’ were quick to recommend the show, but with certain caveats.

One fan posted caption: “A really good series but warning it is super creepy.”

And another commented: “I watched this a couple years ago, it is very disturbing.. but I couldn’t stop watching.”

While a third said: "I watched this few years back, can't even sleep or go to the washroom when i finish watching this it's super creepy."

One review on IMDb called the show ‘unbelievable’, but went on to say: "The primary and best thing of this documentary is its unbelievable true case. I think it's a must watch."

The review went on to finish, however, by saying: “DISCLAIMER : Please DON'T watch this ALONE at NIGHT.”

If you’ve been affected by any of these issues and want to speak to someone in confidence, please don’t suffer alone. Call Samaritans for free on their anonymous 24-hour phone line on 116 123.
