For international horror enthusiasts, the film has gained a significant cult following, largely due to the availability of versions with English subtitles, allowing a global audience to experience one of the most unsettling entries in modern Turkish cinema. The film follows two primary storylines that converge in classic found-footage style. The central narrative focuses on a young woman, Kübra, who begins exhibiting violent, disturbing behavior after a traumatic event. Her concerned family, unable to find answers through modern medicine, turns to a religious exorcist (a hoca ), Faruk, who specializes in dabbe —a term referring to a malicious, shape-shifting demon or a state of jinn possession in Turkish Islamic tradition.

Dabbe 4: The Possession (original Turkish title: Dabbe: Zehr-i Cin ) is a 2013 Turkish supernatural horror film written, produced, and directed by Hasan Karacadağ. It is the fourth installment in the highly successful Dabbe film series, a franchise renowned for its terrifying use of found footage and its deep roots in Islamic demonology and folklore, rather than Western Judeo-Christian concepts of evil.
