The House Beneath the Static
I’m O-Prime, a comic creator, snack enthusiast, and part-time overthinker of laser battles, monster designs, and whether capes are actually practical. I make comics about weird heroes, dramatic villains, strange worlds, and characters who probably should have read the warning label before touching the glowing artifact. My creative process is mostly drawing, rewriting, drinking too much coffee, and staring at a page until it agrees to become a story. I like comics with big action, dumb jokes, emotional gut punches, and at least one character who makes everyone else say, “Why would you do that?”
After inheriting a dead radio station in a forgotten mountain town, a failed broadcaster discovers that the building is still transmitting voices from people who vanished decades ago — and something beneath the station is answering back.
The House Beneath the Static is a supernatural horror comic about Oliver Prime, a disgraced late-night radio host who inherits an abandoned station from an uncle he barely remembers. Hoping to sell the property and disappear from public life, Oliver travels to the isolated town of Bellweather Ridge, where the locals refuse to talk about the station, the woods are filled with old antenna towers, and every radio in town hisses with the same low whisper after midnight. Inside the station, Oliver finds broadcast logs from the 1970s describing missing callers, emergency signals that were never sent, and recordings of people begging to be heard from somewhere deep below the building. At first, he thinks it is an elaborate hoax. Then the voices begin using his name. As Oliver repairs the equipment, the station starts transmitting again. Each broadcast reveals another piece of the town’s buried history: a vanished family, a collapsed mine, a preacher who heard sermons from the static, and a locked basement door that was never part of the original blueprints. The story blends slow-burn dread, mystery, and psychological horror as Oliver realizes the station was not built to send signals out. It was built to keep something tuned in. Best for readers who enjoy haunted locations, cursed technology, small-town secrets, atmospheric horror, and stories where the scariest thing is not the voice in the dark — it is realizing the voice has been waiting for you.
