Acclaimed sound designer and director Jeff Schmidt is set to launch a new gripping audio drama, Ominous Thrill.
Jeff was behind the true-crime Dr Death and Dirty John and fiction podcast thrillers Blood Ties and Aftershock. His latest is an anthology of character-driven tales of obsession, love, rage, and revenge clashing in the murky worlds of the supernatural and paranormal.
Inspired by modern horror anthologies like Black Mirror, Love, Death & Robots and del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities, Ominous Thrill employs full-cast dramatizations to bring the audio delights to life.
The podcast is created in sonically vivid Dolby Atmos spatial audio, creating an immersive experience that pulls listeners into the characters’ dark worlds.
Jeff Schmidt says: “Exploring characters driven by ego, obsession, rage, desire and revenge in worlds of the supernatural, Ominous Thrill is the series of devious audio delights I’ve long wanted to make.”
Ominous Thrill will release on all major podcast platforms from 15 February. Find out more at ominousthrill.com.
