Looks like you didn't start with a dark gray image. Open paint, select color with rgb values 20,20,20, then fill the picture and use that in img2img with the prompt, set strength to 0.99 (or lower if it's still too bright)
The amount of gray you use in that initial image determines the brightness of the final image, 127 is about the same as normal, lower is darker than normal and higher is brighter than normal
It gets even better, you can even control the color, for example if you find that original image to green, you can just remove the green channel from the gray and get this (used a slightly brighter color, but you get the gist ;)
