    RQ Network Feed Drop – Hi Nay: Episode 1 – Bulok

    We are featuring a feed drop from a brilliant show on the RQ Network: Hi Nay.     “Hi Nay” is an atmospheric, analog-style horror audio drama, featuring Folk Horror, mythology and chilling supernatural terrors in an urban setting.     Hi Nay, literally translated to “Hi Mom”, follows Mari, a Filipina immigrant who lives in Toronto.   Mari first gets roped into Toronto’s supernatural crises after saving their neighbor Laura from being killed. From then on, she assists Detectives Donner and Murphy in dealing with supernatural threats using her upbringing as a babaylan (Shaman).     Mari finds herself dealing with a multitude of supernatural issues in Toronto, tied to cursed artifacts and the sinister order behind their creation. She has a great aptitude for magic, though her abilities seem to have a price she’s not forthcoming about. She calls her Nanay (mother) often and recounts her experiences over the phone.    This exciting audio drama is filled with Mystery, Suspense, and most importantly, Horror.  Introduction and outro by Billie Hindle. Listen to Hi Nay on The Rusty Quill website, on Acast, or wherever you get your podcasts, or learn more about Hi Nay on its official website.       If you want to support Hi Nay and its creators, until January 31st, head to www.rustyquill.com/fundraiser    Credits:      Motzie Dapul (Creator, writer, director, editor, voice actor for Mari)  Reg Geli (Co-creator, editor)  Yoyi Halago, Alyssa Gimenez (Editors)  Abigayle Rhodes as Laura, Leon Johnson as Donner, Edward Boxler as Murphy, Adil Ramchurn as Ashvin (Main Cast)    Content Warnings: Injury and bruising, Blood, Vomit, Animal remains, Human remains  Hosted on Acast.
