Creepy New Video Delves Into The World Of ‘Shadowbox’

Shadowbox

We have been following the career of writer T.W. Burgess for a number of years here on Dread Central. And we’re now excited to report on his next endeavor, an ongoing folk horror project titled Shadowbox.

Based on a fictional 1970s children’s TV series of the same name, it remains to be seen what exactly Burgess has in store with Shadowbox. However, he recently revealed a stunning video that serves as the TV show’s opening sequence. The video was uploaded to TikTok, where it has accumulated over 700,000 views, in addition to receiving a comment from Blumhouse.

You can view the creepy video for yourself in the player below, and it will no doubt leave you intrigued to learn more about the upcoming stories taking place within the world of Shadowbox. And you have to admit, the video really does resemble a genuinely creepy TV opening sequence from the 1970s, with the grainy picture quality and the old-school soundtrack accompanying the visuals both adding to the retro aesthetic. While we do not yet know much about Shadowbox, the video certainly still managed to give us the creeps.

During the 1970s ‘Shadowbox’ the childrens television series was aired in the UK. Following complaints to the channel surrounding unsettling characters and seizure inducing scenes it was never shown again and all information was pulled. The intro segment is all that remains today. #analogue #retrotv #retro #retrokidstv
