3 roles
(Character is 229 years old). An immortal vampire artist who paints with blood. Elegant, modern, and magnetic with a sharp intellect. Lilith has a tragic edge — a once-free spirit now caught between love, ritual, and regret. Her presence commands attention, even in silence. Skills/Notes: MUST portray strength, control, and vulnerability. A background in movement, physical theater, or dance is a bonus for choreographed scenes.
Appears 25–35 (Character is 587 years old). A brooding, scholarly vampire with a taste for tradition, raw meat, and control. Ambrose is regal, intense, and loves rituals. His charisma is dark and academic. Think: “gothic professor meets ex-lover.” Skills/Notes: Strong dramatic range required. Must convey both allure and menace. Light dance or movement experience is a plus for ritual scenes.
A fresh-faced paralegal in an oversized suit. Naïve but curious, Jason is sent to the Ravenswood mansion with only a Handycam and a cryptic assignment. Smart, awkward, and brave in the face of the strange. Think: “documentary intern meets haunted house.” Skills/Notes: Comfort with dry humor and subtle comedic timing is a plus. Must be able to react to supernatural and horror elements with realism and nuance.
