The BBC and Darkfield present an unnerving trilogy of immersive binaural experiences. Meet yourself in the DEADHOUSE.

DEADHOUSE is a trilogy of immersive audio horror shorts, all for a single listener, lying down, with their eyes closed. Headphones are essential. The listener becomes the subject while the binaural sound surrounds and creeps towards them. Their familiar environments slip away, to be replaced by other, less comfortable, worlds that feel unnervingly real. Each episode is for the cold and the callous amongst us, and takes a look at the separation of mind and body.

‘There is music at the limits of my hearing. There are demons at the edge of my vision. There are ghosts in the machine’ - Edgar Allen Poe

The infamous Whitechapel murders, retold.

Everyone knows the story of Jack the Ripper, the chilling serial killer that haunted the streets of 19th century London. Now, 135 years later, there’s a new killer in town.

In this darkly comic reimagining, men are the victims of sexually aggressive murders committed by a woman: the mysterious Jackie. The only obstacle standing in her way? The slightly clueless, extremely over-caffeinated Detective Abberline and his not-so-crack team at the City of London Police.

This is a laugh-out-loud, gruesome, thrilling comedy drama that will have you in bits – and might take your bits too.

"Lux Radio Theatre" was an iconic American radio show that ran from 1934 to 1955, primarily on CBS Radio. It was renowned for its weekly, hour-long adaptations of popular films and Broadway plays, often featuring Hollywood's biggest stars reprising their original roles.

Here's a closer look at its significance:

Stars like Cary Grant, Claudette Colbert, Bing Crosby, Katherine Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart, Judy Garland, and many more, appeared on the show, often earning significant fees (up to $5,000 per appearance).
• Hosts: Initially, the show adapted Broadway plays from New York. In 1936, it moved to Hollywood to leverage movie talent and popular films, and renowned director Cecil B. DeMille took over as host, a role he held until 1945. Subsequent hosts included William Keighley and Irving Cummings.
• Cultural Impact: "Lux Radio Theatre" was a massive success, becoming one of the most popular dramatic programs on radio for over two decades. It played a significant role in the Golden Age of American radio, bringing the magic of Hollywood directly into people's homes.
• Notable Episodes: The show adapted a vast array of films and plays. Some famous adaptations include:
• The Thin Man (with William Powell and Myrna Loy)
• It Happened One Night (with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert)
• Casablanca (with Alan Ladd, Hedy Lamarr, and John Lodar)

But when tragedy strikes, the line between harasser and victim becomes murky. Will Noa have to give in to being God’s girlfriend… forever?
