Natalie Erika James, Bella Heathcote, Robin Nevin RELIC TEN BURNING QUESTIONS: talking about horror with purpose beyond scares
NATALIE: Yes, I was obsessed with Asian horror growing up and gothic horror literature, as well. That certainly played a part in influencing my work as a whole. When I came up with the idea for RELIC, I was staying at my grandma’s house, which is has been knocked down since, but at the time it was a 150-year-old Japanese house and it always freaked me the hell out as a kid. So, being back there – the combination of being in a creepy old house and the Alzheimer’s was the seed for RELIC.
