SETTING
The setting in Eyes In The Dark is extremely important to the show. It's located in Chester, which is a fairly small town in England. But more specifically, a lot of the scenes take place in the rural areas of Chester. This creates a chilling atmosphere whereby the characters will feel isolated and often helpless during frantic momennts.
DIRECTOR
Myles Stewart is the director of Eyes In The Dark. He's an experienced director when it comes to horror films, however, this is his first ever time directing a TV series. When Myles first heard the news of directing this show, he found the concept very unique and couldn't wait to start filming.
"The fact that this is a television series means there was an opportunity to create a compelling story with longevity, in contrast to horror films which rarely exceed two hours. I believe audiences will be just as attracted to the unfolding of the story, than to the horror aspects. That’s not to say the show isn’t frightening, it just means it’s equally story-driven as it is scary." - Myles Stewart
