  • Summary

  • Listen to Sour Hall from 25th January, with a new episode releasing daily.

    When George inherits her family farm it’s supposed to be a new start for her and her partner Ash, an escape from the chaotic pace of Manchester life and the traumatic incident that’s casting a shadow over their relationship.

    George embraces country living and a burgeoning dairy business but a lonely Ash can’t settle – the farm is isolated and the villagers’ stares make clear their feelings about the inter-racial lesbian couple in their midst.

    And then there is the strange banging coming from the milking shed which George won’t let her enter.... Ash is sure she can hear George whispering to someone or something inside....

    A presence haunts the farm, one that feeds on fear itself, and it’s hungry. To survive, Ash and George must face past traumas and embrace the things that go bump in the night, or risk being destroyed by them.

    Recorded in partial 360 degree sound on location in Yorkshire, this truly terrifying Audible Original stars Lucy Fallon as George and Pearl Mackie as Ash and is best enjoyed when listened to with headphones. This new podcast is a dramatic adaptation of the critically-acclaimed Sour Hall, one of the short stories written by Naomi Booth for Hag.

    Please note: Sour Hall contains strong language, adult themes and scenes of a violent nature which some listener’s may find upsetting. In particular the series references sexual violence, and miscarriage. Much of this is explored via the lens of supernatural horror, but listener discretion is advised. More detail on potentially triggering content can be found by clicking 'details' on each episode in the app. And for the best listening experience, wear headphones.

    This original podcast is 6 episodes in total. New episodes will arrive in your Library daily over six days from 25 January, 2021.

Wasn't what I expected

Honestly I didn't really know what to expect, but what I got was much better and more realistic than I could have imagined. Obviously it's fiction and the storyline goes into weird and unreal places but the characters are portrayed incredibly realistic in terms of their relationship dynamics.

Sour tasting or fresh

I enjoyed the performances, I didn't use headphones which were recommended and I believe with the musical score it would have been better on headphones. I could tell where the story was headed pretty early on so a little disappointed with that fact, but it was as a novelette so it was short.

Hard to follow

I find this type of audio book to be hard to follow. It jumped from one scene to another. When they moved from being on the farm to shopping. It took me a while. By the time I realized it was a different scene or location I had to repeat the scene. I don't think I would follow another book like this.

waste of time

Heavy breathing and loud screams seem to permeate all aspects of this story. Thumbs down.
