Historical Background

In Hindu folklore, a Bhuta is a vampiric spirit of a person killed violently (including by accident, suicide, execution) who did not receive proper funeral rites, so it roams dark and empty places. They feed on the intestines of the living. Their attack on people inflicts sickness or even kills. Bhuta is Sanskrit for "ghost". The modern Hindu word for ghost is Bhoot.
