Start with a primer. It'll cover it completely with a dark gray. Or Behr has the primer and paint in one now that works awesome.

so long as you use a primer, you will be just fine.

BM Aura paint. It's a little pricey, but so worth it. We used it (in a lighter color) to cover dark brown, dark blue, and an ugly seafoam green color. One coat worked like a charm. And a huge bonus - no paint fumes.

ITA with this. We painted a pale yellow over a red wall and the gray primer worked well. You would never guess the wall was red before.
