A New Era of Supernatural Storytelling Begins
An Upcoming Web Series That Redefines Horror, Love, and The Paranormal
A storm is coming and it arrives with anklets jingling in the dark.
We are proud to announce THE DARK SIDE, an upcoming supernatural-horror web series created by Numan Khan, directed by Numan Khan, and produced by Motherify Ltd and Numan Khan Films.
This project combines cinematic visuals, psychological depth, and ancient mythological horror into a story that feels both hauntingly new and deeply human.
After the global audience’s growing appetite for elevated horror (The Conjuring, Hereditary, The Ring, Pari), The Dark Side arrives as a bold new vision one that blends South Asian black-magic mythology, emotional tragedy, and modern suspense like never before.
THE STORY: Where Love Becomes a Curse
The Dark Side follows the journey of Dr. Asif, a dedicated physician who relocates to London with his wife Mahira and their eight-year-old son Ali. The family hopes to start fresh.
But some pasts do not stay buried.
When a chilling nightmare leads Asif to a forgotten temple in Punjab, old memories claw their way back.
A woman from his past Maya, beautiful and mysterious returns not as a memory, but as a vengeful spiritual force, bound to him through a ritual of black magic and betrayal.
Soon, the family is trapped in a haunting that transcends continents one that mixes:
- Possession
- Prophetic dreams
- Ancient rituals
- Family secrets
- Dark spiritual entities
And ultimately asks a single question:
Can you escape the ghosts created by your own choices?
WHAT MAKES “THE DARK SIDE” DIFFERENT?
Unlike conventional horror stories, The Dark Side explores the emotional and moral weight behind the haunting. It is not just about jump scares it’s about a spirit whose love turned into a curse, a man running from guilt, and a family fighting to survive a past they never knew existed.
