A New Mom Battles the Unthinkable in  Adalynn from Summer Hill Films

 

Los Angeles, California : Jacob ‘Jake’ Byrd’s visually  stirring horror ADALYNN releases on digital platforms and DVD later this month from Summer Hill Films, LLC.Byrd’s debut, ADLYNN follows a mother fighting postpartum depression and slipping over the edge. It becomes hard to distinguish where depression ends, and her nightmares turn real, as she and her newborn are haunted by a stalker unlike any other. ‘Adalynn’ trades in a space between horror, fantasy, ghosts, demons, the Satanic occult and dreams. Jerrod D.Britto (13 Slays Till X-Mas, The Grass is Always Greener) wrote the pic.
