This week we’re discussing Sour Hall by Laura Kirwan-Ashman
Sour Hall is based on the short story by Naomi Booth, the story follows George and Ash, an interracial lesbian couple who move to Georges family farm which is isolated up in the Yorkshire moors.
As they begin their new life as dairy farmers, a boggart sets about tormenting both of them, thriving off of their pain and feeding on their energy, ruining George’s dairy products, and distancing the couple from one another.
The drama was recorded in partial 360 degree sound on location in Yorkshire, this piece has a powerful atmosphere and makes brilliant use of sound effects. But the realness of those issues intermingled with the haunting makes Sour Hall a spine-tingling work of horror.
Here’s what’s coming up:
Our thoughts on the chilling sound design, relationships on the brink and finally the boggart. All this and so much more.
Let’s get into it!
