Creeps who harass women in public spaces are a menace to society. They engage in shameful acts like eve-teasing, stalking, and attempting to touch women without consent, robbing them of their right to feel safe. Such behaviour is not only disrespectful but also deeply damaging, causing fear, anxiety and trauma. Women deserve dignity, freedom and the ability to move without harassment.
Here we present a short film entitled “Creeper – A Woman’s Story That Will Give You Chills” that captures an experience far too familiar for women. It begins on a hot afternoon in Mumbai, where a young woman is just trying to get home on a crowded bus.
What makes the film powerful is how real it feels. Many women know this story: the unease of being watched, the fear of footsteps behind you, the dread of not knowing what might happen next. The filmmakers use everyday details — crowds, buses, city streets — to show that harassment doesn’t happen in faraway places. It happens here, in plain sight, in situations we all recognise.
In the heat of a Mumbai afternoon, a crowded bus hides a predator. A man who thrives on crossing boundaries follows a young woman home, unaware of the terror about to unfold. As he intrudes into her home and planned to make her a prey to his evil acts, he finds the situation just opposite and the hunter himself got hunted. What happened next is not only unimaginable but it will literally send chills down your spine! Don’t miss the end.

Creeps show a lack of morality, empathy and respect for human boundaries. It is crucial for society to strongly condemn such acts, hold offenders accountable and work collectively to ensure safety and respect for all women.
The short film doesn’t just tell a scary story; it holds up a mirror to society. It forces us to ask: how many times do women face this? Why do they always have to stay alert, change routes or hide their fear? And equally important, why do bystanders often stay silent?
