DARK ARTS – Retro Horror Audio Drama
crispyx for Voice Actor – Jesse Morales (Reluctant Witness / Male, 17, African American)
🎙️ Role: Jesse Morales (17, male)
Voice Type: Mid to upper register, natural teen tone
Accent: American (youthful, contemporary; no heavy regional accent)
Tone: Casual, hesitant, emotionally conflicted
Style: Naturalistic and grounded
Character Summary:
Jesse Morales is a 17-year-old skater who keeps to himself. He doesn’t buy into ghost stories or town gossip—but after one night near the old drive-in, something changed. He doesn’t talk about it much. Doesn’t want to. But when he does, there’s a tension behind his words, like he’s still trying to convince himself it wasn’t real.
This role requires a natural, low-key performance. Jesse isn’t dramatic—he’s just trying to make sense of something that felt wrong. The actor should capture hesitation, discomfort, and that feeling of someone reliving something they’d rather forget.

"I could smell the tires, the burnt rubber on the asphalt… (slight pause, tension rising) and for a second, I thought of the kids who’ve gone missing. (voice lowers slightly) I didn’t wait to figure it out—I skated the hell outta there."
“The lights hit us, just for a second… (short pause, more focused) like it was picking who to go after. I didn’t say a word— (sharp, like replaying panic) I just took off. Didn’t even look back.”
(quiet, matter-of-fact with unease underneath) “I don’t go near Harlow Road anymore. No one does—not if they’ve heard the stories. And everyone’s heard the stories, ya know?”
Hi Crispyx! Thanks for your audition. You're one of the few voice actors who actually sounds like a teen, which is great! While this role might not be suited for you, we may have other roles coming up. Do you have professional gear to record with? All the best, Matt
hey thanks for reaching out i have professional gear but I dont have a program Im a rookie starting out if you knew then that would help because the program im using brings the quality down but I would love to audition in the future
