Actor José María de Tavira explores terror in podcast 'México siniestro'

Actor José María de Tavira, known for his roles in "Rosario Tijeras" and "Familia de medianoche," is lending his voice to the podcast "México siniestro," which delves into paranormal and extraordinary experiences.

In his episode, De Tavira narrates the story of a young man who claims to have been abducted by UFOs. However, the narrative introduces a twist, suggesting that some cases of alleged alien abductions might be misinterpretations of experiences related to childhood sexual abuse. "My episode is about a young guy who recounts an abduction by UFOs, however, it comes with a twist because according to the author, there are cases where children who are sexually abused imagine they are abducted by aliens. Here the thing is that the story is perhaps abuse, perhaps it is real," De Tavira explained.

"México siniestro" is a production by The Maestros, directed by Emilio Portes, and features various actors, including Regina Blandón and Daniel Tovar, sharing personal accounts. De Tavira approached the narration with an audiobook technique, aiming for an intimate, "storyteller" style, as if speaking directly into the listener's ear.

The podcast's stories are authored by Alexandra Dunnet, who drew inspiration from her own anxieties and news items. She describes the series as "social terror," focusing on the sinister aspects of everyday life and how the familiar can become strange. The series aims to explore things that happen in Mexico beyond the supernatural, highlighting the horror found in the mundane.
