South Africa's past isn't buried. It's whispering through the walls.

Beyond the Rainbow is a compelling new docu-series concept exploring the nation's most haunted heritage sites, where deep historical trauma collides with the unexplained. This pitch trailer offers a glimpse into a series that goes beyond jump scares, delving into the real, often dark history of locations intrinsically linked to South Africa's turbulent past – from the Anglo-Boer War concentration camps to colonial-era mansions like Pretoria's infamous Melrose House.

Follow Ray, a historian-turned-paranormal psychologist, and Sizwe, a skeptical tech expert, as they blend meticulous historical research with cutting-edge investigation techniques to confront the echoes of history that refuse to stay silent.

Combining the globally popular paranormal investigation genre with unique, powerful South African historical narratives, Beyond the Rainbow presents a fresh format with strong international appeal. This proof-of-concept demonstrates the tone, style, and unique potential of the series.

We are currently seeking production partners and funding to bring this important and chilling South African story to a global audience.
