The story

An imaginary friend.
A very real fear.

Childhood imagination has a darker side.

Dark Presence turns the idea of an imaginary companion into a source of dread. In the spaces between familiar rooms and ordinary moments, something feels dangerously out of place.

A brief, unsettling encounter with the possibility that a child’s unseen friend may be more than make-believe.

Enter the film

There’s room
for one more.

The image that stays with you

At the end
of the hall,
a shadow.

A child. A doorway. An impossible silhouette. The original poster leaves the question hanging in the dark.
