    Horror Sound Effects Sinister Textures 5 Play Track 300 sounds included, 5 mins total $20

    We follow up vol 1-4 with the 5th instalment of the Sinister Series

    We wanted more organic scratches in our library, so we decided to get to work and record a variety of objects such as
    Finger Nails, Fake Finger Nails, Metal Pipes, Screws, Coins, and we scraped them against different surfaces like
    Cladding, Concrete, Door Mat, Laminate, Plastic, Wood, Tile, Various Fabrics

    Creating some organic Scratch and Scrapes, these can be left organic or you can redesign these sounds to create some Eerie, Scary, Horrorfull and down right Sinister scratch and scrape sounds which can be used across horror, thriller or suspense projects to create tension, impact and jump scares.

    Sinister Textures 5 will give you enough audio to give your project the authentic sound of Sinister Scratching and Scrapes, boosting your project to the next level. Sinister Textures 5 has been edited to allow a drop in ready and Royalty Free sample pack. These Samples can be used in a variety of projects from Sound Designing/Compositions for TV, Film, Documentaries and Video Games. UCS Compliant and Metadata is attached to the samples.
