Grimwell County
A western horror serial set deep in the wicked heart of Texas. Grimwell County follows the adventures of Deacon Langley and the gunslinger, Church McMillan, as they encounter the nightmares of the dark Texan frontiers.
Notes:
Only one short episode of this (last time I checked). A shame, horror westerns are way too rare.

Ghost Tape
We follow Tessa Dixon at a remote army base in Texas as she deals with the psychological and physical trauma of basic training.
When she finds a tape of her grandfather’s labeled ‘Ghost Tape’ and plays the haunting audio, she unknowingly unleashes a deadly manifestation of her own family’s horrible misdeeds.
Notes:
This one’s based on a kernel of real history. The US actually did deploy a spooky recording as an attempted psi op in Vietnam. You can listen to it on Wikipedia.

Dead Eyes and Moonlit Skies
This first season will consist of a serialization of an original horror novel entitled The White Oak’s Widow.
It is 1848, and misery hangs on the country like a funeral shroud. When Patrick Hartley Murphy decides to rescue an abandoned infant he finds lying atop the Irish hill, the trials of post-famine Ireland become only one part of a problem that runs much deeper, as he finds himself and his family stalked by a Night Hag, an ages-old hatred that attaches itself to the Murphys like a curse.
Fifty years later, John and Mary Murphy travel across the ocean to a small mining community in West Virginia in the hopes of leaving the evil behind. There, they discover the cruelties within the malicious depths of the White Oak’s Widow, the coal mine that swallows lives as surely and as entirely as does the Hag. Yet, while men work and die in the deep underground, the Murphy family discovers that misfortune and indifference are not the only things that followed them from Ireland.
The Dark Tome
What if there was a book that literally opened up doorways to other worlds?
Where would it lead, and could you handle what you found on the other side?
Cassie, a teen that’s having trouble fitting in at school, is about to find out. One day, after she wraps up community service at a local hospital, she stumbles out of the basement of a spooky bookshop and into a story set on a devil’s staircase in a remote Italian village.
