Description

The Holmwood Foundation is a Found Footage Horror-Fiction Podcast following Maddie Townsend (Rebecca Root) and Jeremy Larkin (Seán Carlsen), two co-workers at the mysterious Holmwood Foundation, as they are possessed by the ghosts of Jonathan and Mina Harker, and embark on a road trip across the country in an effort to achieve their ghost's wishes: stop Dracula once and for all.


This is a story about identity and self discovery, family loyalty and devotion, all wrapped around a nightmare of a road trip with a rejuvenating severed head, incredibly sincere Victorian ghosts, and an analogue recorder.


General CW for horror and loss of bodily autonomy/possession

Hi all, This is Georgia, one half of the Holmwood Foundation writing team, just posting a quick update regarding the Holmwood Foundation. As you may or may not have heard, our Kickstarter for season one ended last week, after successfully reaching our funding goal of 23 thousand pounds, which means we are now full steam ahead on production! We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported us up to this point, whether monetarily, by listening and sharing our pilot, enthusing about us on social media, or giving us your time and experience to help make this show possible, we have been blown away by the support. We wouldn’t be here without your help, and we are so so grateful. So, what comes next?Right now we are hard at work editing and locking off our season one scripts, wrangling our actors and finalising our recording schedule. We hope to release the rest of season one in Spring or early summer 2025, but we will keep you updated as we go, via our socials and this feed.In the meantime, we are also working hard to begin fulfilling the tier rewards for our Kickstarter backers! Please remember; if you don’t fill out your backer survey, we will not be able to get your rewards to you, so please take a moment to do that now, if you haven’t already!If you missed the Kickstarter window, we do have late pledges open for a short time, in case you would like access to our private Discord server, access to episodes a day early when they drop, or a shout out on our website. If that interests you, do check out our Kickstarter link in the show notes!We will continue to release art, character extracts, script snippets and other goodies over on our socials, as we gear up for the rest of season one, so please do follow us if that interests you! We regularly answer questions and interact with our followers. Links also in the show notes. That’s all from me for now! Please do reach out to us if you have any questions, comments or concerns. A huge thank you again. We can’t wait to show you the horrors we have in store!OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://www.theholmwoodfoundation.com/KICKSTARTER LINK: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/georgiacook/the-holmwood-foundationYou can find us as @theholmwoodfoundation on all socials except twitter and bluesky, where we are theholmwoodfnd.

KICKSTARTER LINK: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/georgiacook/the-holmwood-foundation-season-two(My apologies for any phlem and mouth sounds during this message. I'm currently battling a cold) Hello everyone. Georgia here, one half of the writing team behind the Holmwood Foundation. We now have two weeks left to go on our Kickstarter for season two. Unfortunately we are currently only 18 percent funded, and are running out of time to secure the full amount.If we don’t raise the amount needed, we simply can’t make season two. We have no outside funding, and no current sponsors. We are not a large production company. Holmwood is just the two of us writing, producing, and finding the money to pay our cast and crew. If you like what we’ve produced for season one, and want to know what happens next to Maddie, Jeremy and the Harkers, please consider donating to the kickstarter. We have a range of exciting tier rewards on offer, including cassette tapes of the pilot, stickers, postcards and a deck of playing cards designed around the main cast.If you lack the funds right now, please know that any shares, reviews and recommendations go just as far, and we appreciate any and all assistance in spreading the show’s reach.We’ve loved making Holmwood so far, and we are so excited to bring you season two. We know exactly where we’re headed in the story, but we need your help to get us there. Thank you so much for listening.

The Kickstarter has officially ended, and unfortunately we didn’t meet our goal or make the amount needed for Season Two. The money will now return to everyone who pledged it.It’s a blow, but made softer by the wonderful support, messages and donations we’ve received over the last few weeks. Whether you’ve been with us since the first Kickstarter, or found us only a few days ago, we cannot overstate just how much your listenership, love and support means and has meant to us.What comes next? We are not giving up on season two! We’re going to finish and lock the scripts, as we always planned, and see what we can do with alternate avenues of funding, ready to jump into production as soon as we find ourselves able.It means a much harder, slower road, especially with arts council funding all but dried up for podcasts, and with no money, backing or networks supporting us at this current time. We’re going to start putting out feelers, and see what we can do into the new year.As a huge thank you to everyone who has helped and supported us, we intend to produce a small bare-bones winter special over the next few months. We’ll keep you updated as we can, but we can reveal it will center around Jonathan Harker the Third and The Sister. (And if we can’t produce it, we might simply post the script!)Just to reiterate the above, thank you so much for everything. We're going to find a way to make Holmwood somehow. We're not going anywhere, and if you have any questions at any time, you can ask us on any of our socials.
