Horror Harp

Horror Harp is a sampled 100-year-old lap harp that Steven inherited from his wife‘s grandmother. When he learned about its heritage–that it had been strung with guitar strings during the 1920’s Great Depression era–he had to record it! With cracked and scratched antique wood, this atonal instrument rattles and growls with distinct character. This harp has been bowed, knocked, stabbed, whacked, plucked, strummed, and punished to produce horrific one-of-a-kind sounds you’ve never heard before. Horror Harp will add a unique flavor to your next horror score.
