The shift is open. Pour yourself something warm and dim the lights.

Tonight on an extended personal shift of Slightly Out of Frame, host Sylvana takes a deep dive into an unexplainable fixation carried since childhood: her lifelong love for Hollywood legend James Dean.

We travel from Dean's early life in Fairmount, Indiana, to the wind swept California crossroads in Cholame where his life was tragically cut short at twenty four on September 30, 1955. Sylvana shares her personal pilgrimage to the James Dean Memorial Junction, exploring the chilling urban legends surrounding the crash site, the phantom silver Porsche reported along Route 46, and the notorious string of fatal accidents attached to his cursed car, "The Little Bastard."

Most importantly, Sylvana connects the dots between this childhood fixation, her own unexplainable personal experiences, and how her entire creative engine her liminal photography, visual art and dark fiction writing is fundamentally tied to the paranormal.

Tonight on Slightly Out of Frame, we open our shift at the edge of the Pacific Ocean exploring the history, storm ravaged past and lingering hauntings of California's historic Santa Monica Pier. From midnight carousel organ music playing in locked buildings to phantom fishermen vanishing into the dark waves, we examine how coastal amusements store decades of human friction.

Then, we step across the threshold into the studio sanctuary of renowned dark artist, illustrator and world builder Mister Sam Shearon.

Sam’s dark aesthetic has defined the visual landscape of heavy metal and dark pop culture, creating album art and merchandise for legends like Rob Zombie, Iron Maiden, Ministry, Rammstein, Slayer, and Fear Factory. Beyond music, his illustrations have graced the covers of Clive Barker’s Hellraiser, The X-Files, Lovecraftian lore. We also explore Sam’s personal works and his fascination with cryptids.

Tonight on a deeply personal shift of Slightly Out of Frame, host Sylvana steps out from behind the lens to share the quiet origin story of her relationship with the unexplained and how a single, chilling moment in childhood fundamentally altered her creative DNA.

We travel back to a ten year old’s sudden, terrifying collapse in front of a cold fireplace inside a historic Western Australian colonial home and the disturbing historical revelation that followed. Sylvana reflects on her journey through international paranormal research, two unexplainable photographs including a late lunch anomaly analyzed and left unexplained by experts and AI alike and how the unseen world became the ultimate catalyst for her liminal photography, art and writing.

Tonight on Slightly Out of Frame, we open our shift on the shores of Lake Zurich in Switzerland climbing the Herrenberg hill to the ancient, seven-century structure of St. Johann’s Parish Church in Rapperswil. From its mismatched medieval towers to its chilling neighbour, the 15th century ossuary chapel, we step into one of Europe's most gruesome historical legends, the Battle of Näfels and the 1388 Phantom Mass of the sixty two headless soldiers.

Then, we cross the threshold into the dark, seductive literary universe of bestselling horror, gothic, and supernatural suspense author Alistair Cross.

Known for his solo hits and his long running creative partnership with Tamara Thorne, Alistair weaves vampire lore, occult mysteries, small-town haunts and elemental magic into deeply immersive reads.

Tonight on a special interim shift of Slightly Out of Frame, we journey across the ocean to Denmark, to explore one of the finest preserved Renaissance water castles in the world: Egeskov Castle.

From its dark foundations built on an entire felled forest of oak trees to the tragedy of Lady Rigborg’s five year solitary imprisonment, Egeskov sits at the exact intersection of history, folklore and quiet isolation. Host Sylvana, reflects on her pilgrimage to see the famous Titania’s Palace, one of the world's most breathtaking, intricate dollhouses and how standing before empty miniature rooms unlocked a deeper understanding of the liminal spaces that define her artistic life.

Tonight on Slightly Out of Frame, we explore the profound connection between physical structures built to contain human suffering and the immortal gothic mythologies created to process our deepest fears.

We open the shift along the Western Australian coast, diving into the dark colonial history, convict built limestone arches and lingering paranormal echoes of the Fremantle Arts Centre, originally built in the 1860s as the Fremantle Lunatic Asylum.

Then, we cross the ocean to step directly into the ancestral archives of literary royalty with author, historian and manager of the Bram Stoker Estate, Dacre Stoker, the great-grandnephew of Bram Stoker.

Tonight on Slightly Out of Frame, we turn our eyes inland away from the coast to step directly into the sunbaked, haunting frequency of Australian Gothic.

Unlike European gothic narratives defined by crumbling castles and foggy cobblestones, Australian Gothic finds its terror in the crushing sun, hypnotic heat haze, and the uncanny, indifferent silence of an ancient bushland. Stepping into her author alter ego, Raven Starfenne, host Sylvana explores how the landscape itself becomes an antagonist, distorting human psychology and reminding us how fragile our architecture remains against the vastness of the continent of Australia.

Tonight on Slightly Out of Frame, we journey from the scorching, Art Deco concrete monoliths of the Mojave Desert to the pulsing, darkwave underground.

We open the shift exploring the heavy history, dark tunnel rumors, and lingering hauntings of the Hoover Dam and examine how massive, industrial structures contain and radiate human friction. We then step across the threshold into the dark avant garde industrial black metal universe of Antania.

Joining us on the shift are Kali and Doc Luna, the driving forces behind Antania. Blending brooding synthesizers, haunting vocal melodies, raw industrial textures, and a striking visual aesthetic, their music explores the shadowy, liminal spaces between machine, emotion, and magic.
