By Helen Cross.
Rose won't survive 'the Old Land'. Her Mam means Transylvania.
So when Rose arrives at a picturesque town in the shadow of the Carpathian Mountains, she's on high alert.

Rose's arrival is a nasty surprise for Siobhan too. She wants to go home, yes, but not in a body bag. And if Austin's 'reappeared' here, then Rose has to be ready for a fight.

Stylish and surprising fantasy horror with a comic twist, starring Alexandra Mardell (Coronation Street) and Demetri Goritsas (Ten Percent).
With music by Dana Margolin and Sam Yardley of Mercury-nominated band, Porridge Radio.

Helen Cross wrote ‘My Summer of Love’ which won a Betty Trask award and was made into a Bafta-winning film with Emily Blunt (recently rated her best film in The Guardian top ten Emily Blunt films). Mary Ward-Lowery won Best Director in 2020 Audio Drama Awards.
