'Dark Whispers - Volume 1' is Australia’s first women’s horror anthology. The feature film follows Clara, a young woman who inherits her mother’s Book of Dark Whispers only to discover 10 disturbing tales within its pages.

From the horror of grief to a share-house living disaster, existential dread to right-swiping vampires, there’s something for all tastes; as long as those tastes are twisted.
