What would you do if your own bedroom made you sick?
When 21-year-old Retha returned home from university, she expected a quiet week with family before classes resumed.
Instead, she found herself afraid to enter her bedroom.
It started with a vivid dream. Then came a terrifying encounter in the middle of the night. Soon after, she became so violently ill that her family rushed her to the hospital.
Doctors gave her a diagnosis. But one detail didn’t make sense. Every time Retha stepped back into her room, the symptoms returned.
As her family searched for answers, they were drawn into a world of South African spirituality, ancestral beliefs, witchcraft, and one of the most feared supernatural entities in African folklore.
Was it an illness? A coincidence? Sleep paralysis? Or something else entirely?
