“One man seeks a fresh start, yearning to reconnect with the primal embrace of nature. Yet, when nature spurns us, when it hungers for our life's essence, what unfolds then?”

An Irish folk horror show performed in the back room of an Irish Pub during Los Angeles’ Ireland week, this show was an incredible way to start fresh out of school. It really pushed me to focus on sound effects and how to make them as creepy as possible. The system was simple, two stereo speakers and a sub that provided our creepy oomf, and only QLab playback during the show. Creating the creepiness of the island that our main character finds himself on was a fun collaboration between our single actor, myself, and the director. We drew inspiration from horror video games and Irish folk stories, resulting in a bone chilling design that culminated in a jumpscare for the audience.
