Spooky Season is ON!
Is there a better time of year for sound than Halloween?
Audio is the driving force behind the most effectively terrifying horror/thriller tales across film, TV and yes - even audio first media like Podcasts!
I'm thrilled and grateful to report that I've been creating terrifying audio for a few exciting horror projects this year - here's the latest!
DARK SANCTUM
A 7-episode Horror/Thriller/Fantasy fiction series. It's an homage of sorts to classic anthology series like The Twilight Zone and Tales From The Crypt and finds me reuniting with my long-time collaborator/partner Mark Ramsey.
Dark Sanctum features the acting talents of Bethany Joy Lenz (One Tree Hill, Dexter), Clive Standen (Vikings, Doctor Who), and Michael O’Neill (Jack Ryan, Dallas Buyers Club).
Listen to Dark Sanctum in stunning Dolby Atmos surround sound - only on Wondery+
THE TIMEKEEPER
The Timekeeper is a 2-hour Horror/Thriller YA audio drama staring Judah Lewis, (The Babysitter, The Babysitter: Killer Queen) Chandler Kinney (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin) and Arjun Athalye (Are You Afraid of the Dark)
The story follows Charlie (Judah Lewis) and his best friends Zoe & Gama (Kinney & Athalye) as they're pulled into a life-and-death version of a supposedly cursed video game called "13 Keys"
The series made its live debut on TWITCH on Oct 21, with part one, and then part two live on Twitch on Oct 26th.
There is also a web3 companion game that uses clues from the audio story as it mirrors the game in the story with NTF prizes and bonuses. This was a super fun project to work on.
Check it out - tick-tock!
I HEAR FEAR
Finally, for fans of narrative-driven, “enhanced audio book” style of fiction, I worked on three episodes of I HEAR FEAR - a 6-episode anthology series of scary tales inspired by real events.
Hosted by two-time Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan.
I'm psyched to have worked on these original horror series. Can we make Halloween year-round? I'm going to get working on that! I think winter, spring, and summer can make great spooky seasons too!
