Classic horror with a desi twist.
A dentist in 1990s Lahore begins to notice strange patterns in his patients-unnerving, silent, and entirely unexplainable. Born with a sixth finger and warned by a tarot reader that his life would never be ordinary, Dr. Rahim-ud-Din Shamsi finds himself caught between science and the unseen-wanting nothing more than a normal life, but never able to live one.
In another corner of the city, Farwah Sheraz dreams of the man she once loved. When her husband Faraz vanished without a trace, he took with him every certainty she d ever known. Years passed. A new marriage followed. Then one night, Faraz returned, but he was not the man she remembered. What follows is a terrifying unravelling of grief and memory, as Farwah is pulled between two lives and two men: one who haunts her nights and one who shares her bed.
Bareera Khurram lives in Karachi s finest house with the finest surname. But she forgets conversations, hears voices no one else hears and wakes up with bruises she does not remember getting. Therapy reveals layers of trauma, and what begins as a standard psychological assessment spirals into something far darker as her therapist starts questioning where the patient ends and something else begins.
Set in Pakistan, straddling worlds old and new, these slow-burning horror stories draw from true accounts to unsettle you and leave you wondering: did that really happen?
