Silvia's Blood

Preliminary sound design for the game "SCP-899", currently in progress from Chicago indie developer Aaron Thompson. 

The game is based on an entry from "SCP Foundation", an experimental fiction wiki: http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-899

The player encounters an ephemeral presence that manifests as a group of elusive, taunting children. At times the entities turn hostile, as demonstrated toward the end of this piece.

I put together this mix as a sketch of potential sound elements that could appear in the game. Thanks to voice artist Heidi Berg for her work here! Music is placeholder (Thompson will be composing his own tracks for the project).
