In Islam, houris (/ˈhʊəriz, ˈhaʊəriz/;[1] in Arabic, حورية, plural form of ḥūr, which means "gazelle-eyed") are said to be human-like, "splendid" "pure beings", created by God to serve as personal "companions" to believers in their afterlives in Paradise.
Outside Islam, the houris are often translated as the "virgins" that are putatively promised to Muslim martyrs after their death (most usually referred to, in most non-Islamic accounts, at a number of 72 for each one martyr).
Contrary to such non-Islamic widespread beliefs, the Quran states that all believers (not just martyrs, and nowhere either is it said its just men) who go to Heaven shall be granted the company of more than one houris—explicitly mentioned in the plural, even though no number (72 or any other) or estimate is given in the Quran.

Which is humorous since the true translation of it is 72 white raisins.
Did also exist a dark version from them? This happens with the angel and valkyrie.
No, they’re wouldn’t really be a point anyway. Dark angels and dark Valkyrie are just more sexual versions of they’re respective being groups. Houri are already sexual so they’re’s no real need to “corrupt” them.
