An '80s Folk-Horror Slasher Inspired by Shakespeare's Classic

Five recent college grads venture to a remote cabin in the Blue Ridge Mountains, hoping for a final, unforgettable summer weekend. Instead, they find themselves in a nightmare awash with neon and synth beats. Their encounter with a local moonshine stirs up long-hidden secrets, and a sudden violent act stains the ancient forest with blood, unintentionally releasing a wrathful pagan deity imprisoned in the woods. Thrown into a realm where the natural order is disrupted and a terrifying entity starts a relentless pursuit, these friends must let go of their carefully crafted facades to make it through the night.

Please Note: Midsummer Night Scream is an intense and immersive horror experience featuring stylised violence, body horror, and exploring themes such as internalised homophobia, parental grief, and psychological trauma.

Title

PUCK / DJ ROBIN GOODFELLOW

Content

The only actor who breaks the fourth wall. Puck is the engine of the show — a roaming spirit who wears many disguises and moves freely between the supernatural world and the mortal one. He appears as the slick, smooth-voiced 80s Shock Jock DJ Robin Goodfellow broadcasting from the mysterious W-VOID radio station, as an eerily fluid Appalachian Groundskeeper, and as his true Fae self. He is mischief and sincerity made indistinguishable from each other - the trickster who set everything in motion and has been watching the consequences ever since.
