Casting Updates
Hello All,
To make auditions visible for new episodes as we work thru our season, we will be opening a new project and posting calls that way, so it will be more accessible. See you at the Era of Sandra, and beyond!
Selective Dissonance
Project Overview
Interested in experiencing horror from a different perspective? This podcast looks at horror through the lens of the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities and thrives to give you original scares birthed through everyday experiences that may be sources of fear for those of us within those communities. This is a project put on by people who have had experience in the entertainment industry and wanted to do something creative during trying times. You do not have to have been published or in a well known project with millions of listeners, but you do have to have a professional attitude and willingness to deliver work on time.
We also ask that anyone who signs on with the project, be willing to participate in patreon interviews where we will discuss everything from what made us passionate about horror, to why representation in entertainment and media is important, as well as participating in an online table read before recording so that all actors and the directors are on the same page when we go to record.
When submitting please include a way for us to contact you, so that you don't miss out on being cast. Production will reach out via your preferred form of contact, and once a role has been accepted we will cast you on CCC.

Lauren Ep 5
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 35 USD
American, 16-17 years old, lesbian
Lauren is a 16-17 year old high school student. She is quiet, friendly, and likes to keep to herself, but she can get easily frustrated. Ever since coming out, she has been ostracized by many of her peers. In gym class in particular, she feels like she is being judged for her every action and has to take special care not to seem as though she’s objectifying her classmates. The social anxiety she faces around her peers gets even worse when she starts to hear strange noises in the school’s shower room.
Dear diary,
It’s weird to think that back in middle school I actually liked gym class. Ever since I started high school it’s become the worst part of my week. I spend my mornings trying to figure out a way out of it, but I can only use the “I’m on my period” excuse so many times.
Stephanie spent the rest of the day holding her nose whenever I walked past her and telling everyone I don’t shower. It’s like I can’t win! If I try to get a shower like everyone else, I’m apparently a pervert. If I don’t, I’m a pig. And she’ll never let me forget it
I could still hear the breathing. It grew louder than all the scuffling and squealing outside the shower. All the girls yelling across stalls about weekend plans and boyfriends and exes. It wasn’t coming from any of them. It wasn’t coming from outside my stall. I could feel it too, like a vacuum sucking the breath from my lungs. Stepping out of that stall was a relief. But even when I looked back at the entrance to the shower room, I couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling in my gut.

Rosamie- Ep 6
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 25 USD
Filipino, Asian, 27, she/her
Rosamie grew up in the Philippines. When she was 26, she moved to the UK to escape from her abusive ex boyfriend turned stalker. She works at a big chain cafe. Her best friend is Michaela, who she met shortly after moving. Rosamie tends to be a shy, cautious person due to her past experiences. She loves to dance and sing with her friends, but finds it hard to fully let loose in the company of strangers.
He got me a drink, but I didn’t see him buy it. So I don’t know what was in it. When I said “no thanks”, he got really persistent. Not really aggressive… but he wasn’t backing down.
Michaela- I’m starting to get really freaked out. The taxi driver just took a wrong turn. What if he’s not taking me home?
I can’t move again, Michaela. I can’t go through that again. It nearly ruined my life. I spent entire weeks hiding inside my house, with all the curtains shut and the lights switched off so he wouldn’t know I was home.
Voice Actor
Michaela Ep 6
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 20 USD
Filipino, Asian, 25, she/her
Any Filipino/British accent
Michaela was born in the Philippines but moved to the UK with her family when she was 10 years old. She works in an office where she is very sociable. She met Rosamie at the cafe Rosamie works in, and took her under her wing despite Michaela being the younger of the two. She is bold, outgoing and not afraid to speak her mind. She strives to protect her friends but can get frustrated when she feels they’re being irrational or paranoid.
The queue at the bar was insane. It took me nearly fifteen minutes to get served. And they got my order wrong.
He’s probably one of those “nice guys” who think buying you shit means you owe them something.
Hey, are you home yet? Did you get my text? Rosamie, you’re starting to worry me. Text back when you get this.
Voice Actor
Yolanda EP 7
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 20 USD
Black, American, 23, she/her, bisexual or lesbian.
Yolanda grew up in a small, religious community with a loving but overbearing family. Wanting to break away and follow her own path, she moved to England to attend university. While there, she met and started dating fellow classmate Andrew (Drew). It wasn’t until two years later, when she met freshman Aisling, that Yolanda realized she was attracted to women. She’s unsure if she is exclusively a lesbian or if she simply prefers women, and is still discovering her sexuality.
She broke up with Drew and started dating Aisling. When Aisling graduated from university, she moved into Yolanda’s apartment.
Yolanda has mild claustrophobia which she keeps a secret from her loved ones.
Okay, it’s… 5:45pm. I just arrived at Sparrowview Glamp Site. The last place Aisling was sighted
He didn’t exactly take it well when I said I was bi - or gay, I don’t know. I wasn’t sure at the time. The asshole told me to “pick a side”. Said I was “confused”. I haven’t talked to him since the breakup, even though he kept texting me for a month after that.
She really wanted me to come. It was important to her, to make me a part of her friend group. I’m just not used to that kind of thing… She’s the first girl I’ve ever dated. I didn’t even know I liked women until I met her…
Voice Actor
Aisling Ep 7
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
White, Irish, 21, she/her, lesbian.
Aisling (pronounced “ash-ling”) grew up attending a Catholic girl school run by nuns. She realized her sexuality as a young teenager. She decided to go to England for university simply for the experience and independence. There she partied with her college roommate and best friend Joanne. After graduating, she arranged a couple’s getaway at a glamping site for herself, Yolanda, Joanne and Joanne’s new boyfriend Ollie.
Hey Yolanda! I swear to god this better go through. I’ve been trying to ring you all evening but the reception here is shite.
Promise you’ll come next time. We can go just the two of us, if you want.
I love you Yolanda. Talk to you tomorrow.
Voice Actor
Drew Ep 7
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 10 USD
White, English, 24, he/him, straight.
Drew grew up in London, where he later attended university. He met Yolanda and dated her for two years until she broke up with him. Initially heart broken by her decision, he grew bitter when he learned that she was dating another woman.
When his friend Ollie invites him on a glamping trip with his girlfriend Joanne and Aisling (who Drew immediately realizes is Yolanda’s new girlfriend), he jumps at the opportunity to go.
He will do anything possible to get back at Yolanda for “leading him on”, “humiliating him” and “wasting his college years”. Even if that means harming his own friends to get to Aisling.
Aren’t you a crafty little bitch? I didn’t expect you to stab me in the leg with your fucking car keys.
You don’t know where you’re going. You have no one else to turn to. I know you, Yo. I knew you better than anyone else for two whole years.
Come back to the pods and I’ll show you exactly where she is. Then the two of you can be together forever. Just like you wanted.
Voice Actor
Stuart Ep 7
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 7 USD
White, English, 58, he/him, straight.
Country/rural English accent.
Stuart is an old fashioned countryman. He owns the Sparrowview Glamping site and tends to be nosey about anyone who stays there. He holds prejudices against young people and college students, but doesn’t really care as long as he is able to make money from the site.
Oh? Not often we get girls coming here on their own. (suspicious) What neck of the woods are you from?
We had four students stay in that pod a couple of weeks ago. Police came sniffing ‘round a few days later. Said they never went home.
Business has taken a hit since those kids went missing. I’ve already had a few cancellations. Having the cops around doesn’t bode well for the hippie types.

Joel-Ep 1

Paid: Flat Rate 25 USD
Role assigned to:
CWGVO
White, Straight, Male. Evil. Confident in his actions. Great at mimicking normal human behavior. Actually Scum of the earth. He is never truly genuine in any of his interactions with Brittney but should fake just well enough for them to believe him and just bad enough for the audience to feel uneasy.
Mon Petit Lapin,
This is all for you. You are the guest of honor this weekend. Here’s to hoping you remember this trip for the rest of your life.
Love, Me
After we were about a mile or so away from the cabin Jeremy stopped us because he saw a rabbit not too far ahead. He then proceeded to line up a shot on a nearby downed tree and shot at the rabbit.I felt a wetness on my face while I stared in horror at the viscera contrasted against its lush green background, and I started to freak out. Thinking maybe I’d gotten hit from the spray back and was now covered in blood I started to flail around wiping at my face and body and I heard laughs coming from behind me. I whipped around to see Jared and Jeremy rolling on the ground howling and cackling at something.
Oh Mon petite lapin, you are a fighter, that's for damn sure. I guess i knew that when we started dating but i honestly never thought you’d make it this far. You just seemed weak willed, what with all your mental illness and whatever the fuck else. Anyways… congrats i guess. On surviving? Eh. It's kinda a shame that things ended up this way.

Jared-Ep 1

Role assigned to:
jaredtheDM
Scummy Best Friend of Joel. 0/10 would not trust your drink around him at a party. The sidekick friend that's a whole burger short of a happy meal and follows blindly. Yearns to be a leader but knows that it isn't in the cards.
*make some gross uncomfy laughter that would make someone's skin crawl*
Here’s the thing. You cannot move at the moment due to the mixture of drugs that were put in your drinks throughout the day. So stop struggling. Just listen and save your energy. You’re going to need it. Trust me.
Personally I’ve been waiting for this all year so i’m itching to get going...and if i’m the one who gets you (pause, filled with uncomfy moaning noise) let’s just say i have got plans for you.

Thomas Ep 2

Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
Role assigned to:
FatherTimeVoices
BIPOC Male, Landlord of a home his family owns. The home is filled with terrible memories. Just trying to keep the tenants alive the best way he knows how. Most all of his concerns are misinterpreted.
New tenants move in today. We should be okay this year as long as they don’t go down stairs. They’ll be safe. Everything is going to be okay. Mom and Dad would be proud of me. Too bad they aren’t here.
I need to speak to them now before things escalate too far and I lose control of the situation. How dare they try to deceive me like this. All I'm trying to do is protect them and they don’t even have the decency to follow instructions.
(Desperate. at the brink of tears) Dammit. Why ‘d you have to come at me man?
Voice Actor
Jen Ep 2
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 20 USD
Role assigned to:
SamYeow2102
Non Binary BIPOC. Into the supernatural. Very observant. Loves solving puzzles to the point where it can consume their life (Think Charlie Day Always sunny Conspiracy meme).
There’s something off about this house. I’m not going to say anything to JESS because she loves it and seems really proud of her choice but it just feels wrong somehow. I can't explain it.
The landlord wants to video chat with me. I don’t know what to say. I found a camera in the living room yesterday. Is it his? Is it Justin’s? Why does he want to talk to me? What the hell is going on here? Are we on some fucked up reality show i don't know about? Also Justin has been acting really strange and super aggressive to everyone. He made an off comment about ending us all the other day. Maybe I should call a psychic.
(Crazed) I can't believe it but...i think i’ve figured it out! It started in the twenties. Some wealthy white guy was in love with a black woman and so they eloped and moved into this huge house away from everyone else so as to keep a low profile. But he still went to work and everyone there kept calling him slurs and making comments about how unfit he was to exist in regular society to the point that he ended up getting fired. But it didn’t stop there.
Voice Actor
Jess Ep 2
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
BIPOC Female. Kind of what you would imagine a bad movie sorority house leader would be. She's very high energy but everything she does is for the betterment of others. Married to Justin
Aaaah the house is gorgeous. Rent is cheap and everyone seems content. I’m not saying i’m amazing and everyone should thank me but like...they totally should because i killed it with finding this rental! UGH this is perfect.
It was kind of ramble-y and he mentioned “rules Rules follow the RULES” a bit too much. But basically he said that he can’t accept us having 5 people in the house as well as a mixed couple. Which like dude grow the fuck up. It's 2020. Even gay marriage is legal now. Just because your ideals are no longer being upheld doesn’t mean the world is going to end. Geeze.
Something is seriously wrong with Justin. He keeps watching Jen like a hawk. Are they sleeping together? I didn’t think Jen swung that way but then again, i'm now realizing I don’t really know them as much as i thought.
Voice Actor
Lyle Ep 2

Paid: Flat Rate 10 USD
Role assigned to:
ilananight
Lyle is your best friend who just also happens to give off the "lives in their mom's basement playing video games all day" vibes. Definitely NOT a true believer of the otherwordly etc. They're just vibing and trying not to die.
So apparently we have a neighbor that lives in the basement. That’s sus as hell but as far as i can tell that is the only negative about this place. Jess really hit the jackpot finding this place. Jen mentioned something about feeling that the house felt weird. I think they’ve been listening to too many creepy podcasts.
Dude, what the fuck is happening here?
Jen thinks the house is haunted and that we are in danger. I think our problem lies with a bigoted landlord that's probably trying to do things intentionally to get us to move out of the house. Which is hella dumb considering we’re paying him more than we were, every month for rent.
Voice Actor
Justin Ep 2
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
Role assigned to:
Mitch Xander
Husband of Jess. Most effected by the goings on inside the house. Actor needs to be willing to switch seamlessly between varying emotions and intentions well.
(aggravated) Jess keeps acting weird and it’s driving me insane. Why can't she just be normal for a bit. I love her but damn! She honestly told me to take a chill pill. A chill pill? REALLY JESSICA? Good Lord! Why would she even say that? She’s the one that has been acting weird. Her and everyone else in this house. I should be asking them what the hell is wrong with them. Telling them to take a damn chill pill! (Strangely calm) Anyways I spoke to Thomas the landlord and he is just going to charge us more for rent since we didn’t disclose that there would be a fifth person living here.
(Screaming/aggressive guttural sounds, paper ripping and sounds of bookshelves being thrown to the ground and desks being flipped)
Who are you talking to!? I knew you were working with that scum bag!
(Crying) Oh god what have I done?

early 20s, woman of color
as the story progresses she becomes more distressed.
(Text messages--semi frantic)

I think that guy is following me again I swear I just saw him.
I'm just really freaked out.
maybe I should consider breaking my lease? I swear there's some wild animal or something living on my fire escape, but every time I call the land lord he says he can't find anything. I am just really freaked out and kinda scared. I swear I think I saw someone...
[phone drops, Eloise distant but still very audible scared] (scream in surprise) [over phone]
VIC PLEASE PICK UP, fuck fuck fuck… oh my god he’s going to break the window he has a knife fuck holy fuck please don’t please
