    9 out of 10 but..

    I'm a fan of the novels series, I read the 81 stories since I was 17.. When I heard about this project I went back and read the whole collection again. Now this show stands alone as a very special first Egyptian production from Netflix, I loved the general atmosphere, the looks of the characters, the suspense inside every moment, the coloring.. Loved it all The only thing that disappointed me that they had to deform my early imagination about the storyline itself, I had that bad expression all over my face 😅 every time thay tend to change the way I remember some details.. Daram stuff I know but I didn't like it. I hoped they could find another way to give us the whole thing without messing with tge details. Regarding this I'm proud of the series and I hope they go on making a lot more seasons very soon.

    " I will never stop loving you Maggie , until the stars fall from the sky , until the world ends , until planets collide and suns wither , until the moon is extinguished and all the seas and rivers dry up , until i become senile and my memory is eroded , until my tongue is no longer capable of uttering your name , until my heart beats for the last time , only then , i might stop ... i might stop loving you "

    A pleasant surprise

    I started watching the anticipated series "paranormal" today and actually it is not only another horror/drama series produced by netflix, but it is a very well done adaptation for the great egyptian author "ahmed khaled tawfik" paranormal stories, the acting was nice, the music was better than expected, the cinematography was interesting to watch, overall it was an enjoyable ride and i am surely waiting for season 2

    Better than average

    Good solid start of a new promising new horror/mystery show.

    The story reminds me of classic adventure stories like Indiana Jones and gives constant suspension and couriosity. You want to know what happens next and what the mystery is about. It does not invent something completly new, but delievers an exciting premise.

    The main protagonist is the heart of the show and carries the main attention of the spectator. In comparison the other side characters are boring and lack of an impact and can't compete with the actor of Refaat Ismail.

    Where The Haunting of Bly Manor fails and tries to copies his own formula, this show creates a satisfying setting.

      Refaat Ismail: I will never stop loving you, Maggie. Until the stars fall from the sky, until the world ends. until planets collide and suns wither. Until the moon is extinguished and all seas and rivers dry up. Until I become senile and my memory is eroded. Until my tongue is no longer capable of uttering your name. Until my heart beats for the last time, only then I may stop, I may stop loving you.
