Love it!

Absolutely stunning, wonderful horror podcast filled with characters of all sorts. From the magical to the mundane, all trying to get by after the world has ended.

A very rich world of wonder and mystery, and of course cosmic and physical horror, sets the back drop for some of the best protagonists I’ve ever seen, both young and (very, very) old, human and not. It’s like urban fantasy, but if urban fantasy was a fern in someone’s living room that fern has now gotten so big it ate the rest of the world.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
