A "contemporary prequel" to the 1960 film Psycho, depicting the life of Norman Bates and his mother Norma prior to the events portrayed in Hitchcock's film, albeit in a different fictional town and in a modern setting. The series begins after the death of Norma's husband, when she purchases a motel located in a coastal Oregon town so she and Norman can start a new life.
This is dread that accrues rather than strikes, a slow tightening you feel in the chest across quiet dinners and locked doors. The horror lives in intimacy gone wrong, in a bond so close it curdles. You watch a mind fold inward and feel your own composure fray with it.
