Dark Signals

In a remote corner of Northern Wales, the thin veil between waking life and night‑time reverie begins to fray whenever the airwaves pick up strange, distorted signals. The town’s modest radio station, once a hub of local chatter, now feels the pressure of corporate playlists and dwindling listeners, while an unseen current of static seems to whisper of things that shouldn’t be heard. The atmosphere is heavy with a sense of unease, as ordinary frequencies start to carry hints of something far more unsettling than ordinary interference.

Laurie Wolf is a sharp‑witted radio DJ whose love for authentic expression clashes with the station’s increasingly sanitized format. When her regular show is abruptly cancelled, she finds herself at a crossroads, restless and determined to reclaim a voice that feels genuine. Her fierce criticism of the industry’s homogenisation and her refusal to settle into a prescribed sound set the stage for a broadcast that could become a conduit for something beyond the ordinary.

Ben Evans, a colleague with a taste for risk, suggests spicing the next program with a live séance, inviting the enigmatic psychic Carla Zaza to join the mic. Their plan is part rebellion, part curiosity, aiming to stir the stagnant airwaves and perhaps draw out whatever hidden frequencies are lurking. Meanwhile, Kate Komisarczyk, a devoted listener juggling personal responsibilities, becomes unexpectedly entwined with the broadcast’s growing tension, hinting at the way the station’s signal can reach into the most private corners of life.

The film unfolds as an atmospheric blend of psychological tension and subtle horror, using the intimate world of radio to explore how rumors, fears, and unseen forces can ripple through a community. As the static deepens and the night grows louder, the characters must confront the unsettling possibility that the very signals they manipulate may be echoing something far more profound—and far more terrifying—than any ordinary broadcast.
