Overview :

Belyas (2025) is a chilling supernatural horror film that dives into ancient legends and the haunting consequences of forgotten rituals. Set in a remote mountainous village in northern Pakistan, the story follows Mehar, a young ethnographer researching local folklore and spiritual practices. She arrives to document stories of the "Belyas" — a mythical forest spirit said to protect nature and punish those who disrespect it.

What begins as academic curiosity soon spirals into terror as Mehar uncovers signs that the Belyas legend may be rooted in horrifying truth. Locals are reluctant to speak, many visibly fearful, and strange occurrences start to unfold—animals behaving violently, weather patterns shifting, and people vanishing without explanation.

Despite warnings, Mehar pushes deeper, uncovering a dark chapter in the village’s past involving a banned ritual and the death of a child. As the line between myth and reality crumbles, she becomes entangled in a terrifying cycle that blurs her perception of what’s real. Is Belyas just a tale to scare children, or a vengeful force awakened by intrusion?

As Mehar races to escape the entity’s wrath, she must confront her own guilt and trauma—revealing that the horrors outside may not be as dangerous as the ones within.

With eerie visuals, atmospheric direction, and a culturally rich script, Belyas stands out as a modern folk horror tale rooted in Pakistani mythology. It explores themes of colonial gaze, environmental destruction, and spiritual retribution, leaving audiences with lingering fear and deep reflection.
