SAINT JANE of the ORCHARD
(Created by Brian Level)
Mortician Marvin Merrick has discovered something grisly in the neck of a Jane Doe that’s come into his care.
Convinced of her holiness, Marvin, with the help of a talking religious icon, turns the city and himself inside out to unearth the events placing Saint Jane into his funeral home. But the life he’s built for himself and forces outside of his control (and potentially beyond this fleshly world) will collide with him on every bloody step.
Are Marvin’s eyes being opened with every clue or is this all his descent into a mad hell?

SAINT JANE of the ORCHARD
(Created by Brian Level and Noah Halton)
The Unlikely duo of a widow, Elaine, and a stop-at-nothing amateur sleuth, Toni, follow the long shadows cast by the oceanside town of Saint Peter’s Cape to a hideous supernatural island that holds not only the whereabouts of Elaine’s missing husband Johnny, but the secrets of his past- secrets that will alter how she views even her own son.
Elaine wishes to leave all the anguish behind, but Toni drags her deeper. She will do anything in her power to learn the truth and make her mark on the world by solving a decades old cold case of serial killing cannibals. Elaine and Toni must have the stomach to uncover what’s contained off shore of the cape town if they want to move forward with their lives.

But Roy, trying to do right by the wife and twin children he adores, and a surly bunch of tagalongs, soon finds out that things may be twistier than a snake in a fox-trap.

SILK HILLS
(Created by Brian Level, Ryan Ferrier and Kate Sherron)
Beth is someone who has a talent for finding people who don’t want to be found, and when she’s called to the withering Appalachian town (who’s only remaining industry is cryptid tourism) of Silk Hills by a local titan of industry, she can tell that something’s not right.
Before long, Beth finds out just how wrong things can get in the woods, as her search for a missing troubled youth finds her running afoul of the local drug trade, too-friendly creepers, a very sinister deer, and psychoactive moth dust.
She’ll find out that blood runs thicker than water, but feeds something darkly different when it soaks into the earth…
Perfect for fans of Twin Peaks, The X-Files, and Sons of the Devil, Silk Hills weaves atmospheric and stylish suspense into an unsettling by quirky tapestry with elements of folklore, body horror, and themes calling back to Italian slasher films. Silk Hills will be available online and in stores on May 25, 2022.
