## Resource

In this episode, Tony Zooms with Dave Fleming, the composer behind some of the most haunting and emotionally layered music in Widow’s Bay. Their conversation dives into the sonic DNA of the series — from the spectral whispers of The Fog, to the mythic dread of The Sea Hag, to the primal unease of The Boogeyman. Fleming opens up about his creative process, his partnership with a co‑composer, and the challenge of crafting horror music that avoids clichés while still delivering deep emotional impact.
