Music: "El Caballo" by Otto Von Schirach / Video: Dan Melius
Once upon a time in Miami...
...there was a schlub named Jude who could see dead people, and a hustler named Cecilia angling for her slice of the American dream. When they met, sparks flew (different sparks fly now).
They got married, had a son, and combined their talents into a real estate agency called RED LIGHT PROPERTIES, offering "previously-haunted" homes at below-market prices to folks who could never otherwise afford one.
But the good vibes don't always last, do they?
In order to clear a space of lingering spirits, Jude requires heroic doses of psychedelics on the daily to penetrate The Membrane separating the spirit world from ours... leaving him forever straddling his shamanic higher reality and the reptile-brain dystopia of American capitalism.
Which leaves Cecilia holding the bag with like, everything else: finding clients, closing contracts, the emotional labor of holding their family together, and... you see where this is going. Family businesses always suck, but this one is the stuff of actual supernatural nightmares... in South Florida.
The Vibe.
I call RED LIGHT PROPERTIES “tropical horror”: less Ghostbusters, more Better Call Saul meets The Shining, but with hyper-local Florida flavor. It's scary, greasy, druggy, horny, schmucky... and powered by a beating human heart (my heart).
