It's the rare media company that can excel at one genre across various media platforms. For example, while Hallmark is dominant in romance TV movies, it produces few movie romcoms, and is not a force in romance genre book publishing.
By contrast, Blumhouse has injected its expertise in horror into book publishing, movies, TV, and podcasts.
Therefore, when Blumhouse Television and Realm announced a new scripted horror podcast series, Dream Sequence, I was comfortable that podcasting was the recipient of a superb horror show. Dream Sequence will tell the story of two estranged sisters and the nightmare that brings them back together. The show will join an ongoing slate of co-produced podcasts by iHeartPodcasts and Blumhouse Television.
“Our slate of scripted shows with Blumhouse TV has captivated listeners, and we’re excited to continue this journey with the introduction of Dream Sequence,” said Will Pearson, President of iHeartPodcasts. “The new series will explore the realm of dreams and offer a chilling exploration of the darkest corners of the mind.”
New episodes will be available every Monday beginning August 5. Listeners can hear the official trailer now, here.
Dream Sequence tells the story of two sisters and the nightmare that brings them back together. Kay Craft hasn’t spoken to her sister Sadie since the tragedy that tore them apart seven years ago. But now Sadie’s resurfaced with her new invention, a machine that can record nightmares, and a new theory – that something’s alive within them. Whatever it is, Kay will have to confront it to survive.
“It has been a joy to extend our track record of producing high-quality and immersive content for partners while also contributing to Blumhouse's run of horror hits with iHeartMedia,” said Molly Barton, CEO and Co-Founder of Realm. “We’re excited to join them in introducing the world to Andrew’s visionary, horrifying new take on the dream dimension.”
Blumhouse
is the driving force in horror, producing over 200 movies and
television series with theatrical grosses of almost $6 billion in global
box office. Blumhouse is home to franchises such as Halloween,
The Purge, The Black Phone, Paranormal Activity, The Exorcist,
Insidious, M3GAN, and Five Nights at Freddy's, along with Jordan Peele's
Get Out, Damien Chazelle's Whiplash and Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman.
Dream Sequence was created by Andrew Robinson. Executive producing for Realm are Molly Barton, John Brooks, Marci Wiseman, and Dave Beazley; Alex Williams and Trevor Young for iHeartPodcasts; Chris Dickie and Noah Feinberg for Blumhouse Television.
Dream Sequence is distributed by iHeartPodcasts and available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.
One caveat: only listen to Dream Sequence when someone else is there with you in your home.
