Munshi Premchand in the Twilight Zone

This is a short piece of horror that I did in the "old style", there are no special effects, just a bit of nostalgia for a simpler time gone by... The title and story in in Hindi, "Bhiksha" which means "alms" or donation such as one might give a beggar. The irony plays out in the end, as who is really giving alms to who...? It is this irony that reminded me of Munshi Premchand's story "Godaan"...hence the title.

For medical students it's no big deal to handle human bones, corpses, etc.; they study late into the night, mugging up attachments and insertions, and often go to sleep hugging an odd femur or sharing the pillow with a skull. So what would really scare one such feller? .... I imagine, this... Also, there is a lesson to be learnt that the beggar keeps reiterating. Dead men's bones and bodies are the real professors for medical students; it is through careful study of these that one learns human anatomy, and the basis of surgery.
Your opinion?
