The Charon

The inspiration for our short horror film was based on a ancient myth known as the Charon which is a greek mythology who ferries the souls of the dead. Our original title was going the ferryman but we didn’t think it wasnt that exhilarating, but the Charon we thought more interesting and mysterious.
