MTV Dark Scroll: India's Only Paranormal Reality Show Set To Explore Haunted Places In Uttarakhand

India's leading youth entertainment brand, MTV, is set to launch its first paranormal reality show, MTV Dark Scroll – Muqabla Anjaan Se. This unique blend of horror and reality genres will be hosted by actor Amit Sadh. The show features nine Seekers exploring seven haunted locations in Uttarakhand. Paranormal expert Sarbajeet Mohanty and psychic Pooja Vijay will guide them. Premiering on 16th August, the show will air every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 7 pm on JioCinema and 10 pm on MTV.

Guided by Amit, Sarbajeet, and Pooja, the Seekers will investigate chilling stories and face other-worldly challenges amidst the misty mountains and dense forests of Uttarakhand. The seekers will be tasked with a series of activities inside each haunted location using advanced entity-detection devices like Infrared Cameras, Electromagnetic Field Measures and Paranormal Investigation methods like the Estes Method. They will aim to complete their investigations successfully while withstanding the spooks as the show unfolds.

Paranormal Expertise

Sarbajeet Mohanty, founder of PAIRS (Parapsychology and Investigations Research Society), brings years of expertise in investigating paranormal phenomena. He ensures each encounter is grounded in research. "The show is a first of its kind," he said. "I loved developing the concept on field with the makers. The techniques and gadgets used will only help to understand the paranormal better. I urge the audiences to keep an open mind and know more, just like our Seekers."

Pooja Vijay, co-founder of PAIRS, adds another layer of depth to the investigations with her extraordinary psychic abilities. She senses and communicates with spectral entities in these haunted locales. "With 'MTV Dark Scroll – Muqabla Anjaan Se', I am excited to open the paranormal world to the curious – believers and non-believers," she said. "There are many misconceptions in pop-culture about entities and their world. Through the investigations in the show and the journey of the Seekers, I'm sure audiences will get a new perspective of what a paranormal presence is."
