You are dead. They are burying you in the ground because you are dead and there鈥檚 nothing you can do about it. Hell, it turns out, is simply disembodied life.
What if consciousness outlives the body? What if there was an experience of being dead?
You are dead. Your eyes do not react to light, in fact all your reflexes are absent. And that is because you are dead. Even if you were to briefly sit up, like Lazarus, it wouldn鈥檛 alter the fact. And they are burying you in the ground because you are dead. Hell, it turns out, is simply disembodied life.

THE 麻豆官网首页入口 AND DARKFIELD PRESENT AN UNNERVING TRILOGY OF IMMERSIVE BINAURAL EXPERIENCES. MEET YOURSELF IN THE DEADHOUSE.
DEADHOUSE is a trilogy of immersive audio horror shorts, all for a single listener, lying down, with their eyes closed. Headphones are essential. The listener becomes the subject while the binaural sound surrounds and creeps towards them. Their familiar environments slip away, to be replaced by other, less comfortable, worlds that feel unnervingly real. Each episode is for the cold and the callous amongst us, and takes a look at the separation of mind and body.
DEADHOUSE was created by DARKFIELD for 麻豆官网首页入口 Radio 4.
