Tales of Suspense

In the spirit of Stephen King, the natural becomes supernatural in Isla Chillido—a true tale of terror. Isla Chillido is a luxury Caribbean island resort that is largely populated during the summer season by the grown children of uber-rich parents who feel entitled, empowered, and carefree to a fault. 

Their only parameters in life seem to be an abject worry of being ridiculed by their peers or appearing “uncool” at any moment in time.

These pretentious young adults fear nothing and no one until…until they are faced with a  horror beyond imagination. Watching over them is a team of middle-class, hardworking lighthouse keepers who equally find themselves in a dilemma of epic proportions. 

As their two worlds collide, the best and the worst in everyone is revealed, and the characters in Isla Chillido are faced with impossible decisions which carry terrifying consequences.

Lana LeFleur was the epitome of the movie star queens of the Golden Age of Cinema. Fawned over, catered to, adored and pampered she was the center of her own universe and demanded that that was also true of everyone in her orbit—especially her stand-in who lived continually in the shadow of her stardom.
