The Norliss Tapes
A moody 1970s supernatural thriller built around tape-recorded testimony, blending voodoo horror with investigative mystery and the unsettling premise of a reporter's disappearance.
A newspaper publisher listens to the personal tapes of investigative reporter David Norliss, who has disappeared during an investigation. The tapes tell the story of that investigation, involving a recent widow whose late husband has been seen working in his private studio. As Norliss and the widow investigate, they unravel a plot involving Voodoo and the walking dead.
