What to Expect From Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past 2026?

Haunted 3D is a horror film that is remembered for its content as well as its songs, which made the film a box office hit back in 2011 and also helped it gather a huge audience on satellite over the next 15 years of its existence. Made on a budget of Rs 13 crore, it collected Rs 26 crore India nett. However, one can only doubt the content of its sequel, Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past 2026. 
The Haunted – Ghosts Of The Past 3D official teaser was released on September 3, 2025, and all the hype that the movie could gather just by its title was diminished by this asset as a result of the VFX and actors. It can be clearly defined as cartoonish because none of the two departments showed any interest or dedication-filled efforts of the team, nor did the teaser attract the audience towards the story. 
Due to these factors fueling the huge negativity for this horror thriller, the Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past release date was postponed from 21 November 2025 to 6 February 2026, a gap of 3.5 months. 
Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past is directed by Vikram Bhatt, a filmmaker who has not given a hit at the box office for nearly 14 years after Raaz 3 (2012). This track record of the director is what eliminates any hype that may arise in your mind for Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past upcoming movie.

How Was the Response to the Haunted 3D Part Two Announcement Video?

The Haunted 3D Part Two announcement video did gain a huge visibility due to the franchise factor but it did not turn into a positive reception. The teaser looked unnecessarily packed with VFX and CGI, even in the scenes that can be shot at normal locations, and looked awful every moment. Additionally, the teaser doesn’t have anything to excite the audience for this sequel. Hence, the film destroyed the chances of any possibly beneficial hype it could have gained in even the slightest of the better cases. 

Was the Hype Like This Before the Poor Announcement Video?

No, the initial hype of the film was huge, but diminished only after the announcement video.
As can be seen from the early reaction of the film to our Instagram post in the form of likes and comments back in April 2025, the film carried a huge hype due to the legacy of the hit prequel and its memorable songs. However, things seem to have gone horribly wrong from the production’s side which destroyed this excitement. In fact, the same has been the case with every recent sequel that has failed in the near past. A sequel always carries initial hype from the audience before the makers blow that excitement into small fragments by dropping consecutively disappointing assets.

What is the Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past Release Date?

The Haunted 3D sequel release date has been very uncertain and is currently locked as 6 February 2026. Originally, the film was scheduled to hit the theaters on 26 September 2025, with the teaser confirmed by lead actor Mimoh Chakraborty/Mahaakshay Chakraborty in April 2025 itself. However, the teaser got delayed by around 3 months, and its quality reveals why it was delayed.
Through the teaser, the makers of the movie confirmed its release date of 21 November 2025 but after huge criticism, it got delayed for the second time by a few more months.

Who is in the Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past Upcoming Movie Cast?

The Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past cast features Mahaakshay Chakraborty in the lead, coming after Khakee: The Bengal Chapter, alongside Chetna Pande, Shruti Prakash, Gaurav Bajpai, Praneet Bhatt, and Hemant Pandey in the lead. The Haunted 3D upcoming movie cast brings back only Mahaakshay Chakraborty from the prequel’s stars.

What is the Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past Movie Trailer Release Date?

The Haunted – Ghosts Of The Past 3D official trailer release date is currently not announced. However, based on the film’s release date, it should be revealed soon, around a week before its theatrical release date. 

What To Expect From Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past Box Office Collection?

Even though Haunted 3D was a box office hit, the same fate does not seem to be approaching Haunted 3D 2, and the reason behind it is simple. The cast of the movie, the director, and now its first impression on the audience, none of these factors are in a position to uplift the film’s hype but rather make it drop. 
Haunted 3D: Ghosts of the Past is made on a budget of Rs 35 crore, and even though you can only hope that the team works on improving the CGI, the hopes can clearly not come true with such a low budget. Keeping all these factors in consideration, a failure for Haunted 2 in its current position seems more possible than a success.
