If you thought your bed was just for sleeping, think again. Pure Taboo’s chilling series “Under the Bed” is back for a second season, and it’s kicking things off with a premiere that’s dripping with style and suspense. Titled “House of Silk,” the episode stars the incredible August Skye, who gets to live out her ultimate horror fantasy alongside Codey Steele and Josh Rivers.
A Match Made in Horror Heaven
For those unfamiliar, “Under the Bed” isn’t your typical adult series. Developed by Adult Time’s creative powerhouse Bree Mills, the show has carved out a unique niche by blending high-art horror with steamy encounters. A representative for the studio perfectly described its mission as creating “modern horror television for adults that happens to have sex in it,” focusing on cinematic quality and psychological tension over cheap jump scares.
This approach was a perfect fit for August Skye, a self-proclaimed horror aficionado. Anyone who follows her online knows she’s as passionate about scary movies as she is about her own work, and getting to combine the two was a career highlight.
“Shooting this scene was absolutely amazing,” Skye gushed. “It was like the equivalent of being on an A24 set. And for my fans that know me the best, they know that I’m a HUGE horror fan.”
Channeling That “A24 Vibe”
Skye’s comparison to A24—the studio behind modern horror classics like Hereditary and The Witch—is a huge deal. It speaks to a growing trend in the adult industry where creators are pouring resources into storytelling, atmosphere, and high production values. Fans are no longer just looking for a quick thrill; they want an experience. They want character-driven narratives and a mood that stays with them long after the credits roll.
“House of Silk” seems to deliver just that. The episode throws viewers into a world of intrigue and dread, proving that horror and passion can be a potent and unforgettable combination. It taps directly into the industry’s shift towards more sophisticated, genre-bending content that respects its audience’s intelligence and love for good filmmaking.
Living Up to the Hype
With its blend of psychological thrills and intense performances, the season two premiere is already generating buzz among fans who appreciate the series’ bold direction. For August Skye, the project was more than just another scene—it was a chance to prove her creative range and connect with her audience on a whole new level.
As she put it herself, the goal was simple but ambitious:
“Hopefully I lived up to their expectations.”
“House of Silk” is now streaming on PureTaboo. You can follow August Skye’s adventures on X.com.
