The Mall Wood Green

The Mall Wood Green is a large shopping centre and residential complex in Wood Green, North London. It is generally still referred to by its former name of Wood Green Shopping City; the signage on the building still uses that name.

The Mall is the largest shopping centre within the North Circular, with just over 100 retail shops, seven of them anchor stores, 45 market stalls, and an average of 221,000 customers per week. The centre and the adjoining shops on Wood Green High Road constitute the commercial hub of Haringey and its surrounding areas.

Wood Green Shopping City

The centre was built in the 1970s as "Wood Green Shopping City", on the site of the former Noel Park and Wood Green railway station. Initially it included a number of unusual features, most notably a giant wooden climbing frame in the shape of a frog.

The centre was opened on 13 May 1981 by HM Queen Elizabeth II.

Unusually for a shopping centre, the A105 road runs directly through the complex, allowing many of the stores to have entrances directly onto the street. The two halves of the mall are linked by bridges at first and second floor level. The centre is six storeys high, but only the lower two floors are occupied by shops; the upper floors make up a housing complex known as "Sky City", where in 2006, the badly decomposed body of a woman was found. Her name was Joyce Vincent and she had died three years earlier, her body lay undiscovered. Joyce's life is the subject of the film Dreams of a Life.

The Mall, Lahore

The Mall in Lahore, Pakistan (also known as "Shahrah-e-Quaid-e-Azam"), is one of Lahore's primary and most famous roads. It was constructed under the British Raj and was named after The Mall in London.

The Mall holds significant historical and cultural value, as most of the buildings lining the road are a collection of Mughal and colonial-era architecture, the majority of them built during the British Raj era. This area has many official houses of high-ranking dignitaries.

Darr @ the Mall

Darr @ the Mall is a horror film directed by Pawan Kripalani of Ragini MMS fame. The film was released on 21 February 2014 and stars Jimmy Shergill and Nushrat Bharucha in the lead roles. The film is produced by Multi Screen Media and Contiloe Entertainment.

Plot

Asia's largest mall is ready for inauguration, although there is controversy surrounding the recent deaths of construction workers and mall staff, leading the media to label the mall as haunted. Vishnu (Jimmy Shergill) is mysteriously recommended for the job of chief security officer on the eve of the inaugural party.

On the night of the party, the owner of the mall Mr. Manchanda (Arif Zakaria) and his associate, Mr. Khan's children, Ahana and Naveed along with their friends are also at the party. One by one, a ghostly apparition targets the teenagers and mall investors, meanwhile Vishnu slowly uncovers clues about the identity of the ghost.

As the party ends, Mr. Manchanda, Mr. Khan, their children and Vishnu along with the mall's event manager find themselves locked inside after all the guests have gone home. The six of them struggle to stay alive as the ghost continues its killing spree.
