Sabarna Sangrahashala is a family-associated museum in Kolkata preserving the history and material culture of the Sabarna Roy Choudhury zamindar family. The site is curated by Devarshi Roy Choudhury and has hosted public history and heritage exhibitions.

The Haunting

The Sabarna Sangrahashala is a heritage collection and museum associated with the Sabarna Roy Choudhury zamindar family, a landholding lineage that controlled territories in Mughal Bengal including areas that later formed Kolkata until the sale of zamindari rights in 1698. The Sangrahashala functions as a curated repository of the family's history and material culture; archival materials identify Devarshi Roy Choudhury as the museum's curator and principal steward. Photographic and archival records show the Sangrahashala engaging in public-facing activities, including a History & Heritage Exhibition in which Devarshi Roy Choudhury appears with cultural figure P. C. Sorcar (Junior), indicating the museum hosts exhibitions and events. No paranormal or supernatural phenomena are reported in the supplied sources. The available documentation is historical, biographical, and museum-focused; it records the institution's role in preserving family and local history but contains no claims of apparitions, hauntings, or other unexplained phenomena. Additional research into local oral history or folklore would be required to document any ghostlore or supernatural traditions associated with the site.
