About this listen

Welcome to Marshport, Maine — a quaint, little coastal town preparing for their annual Winter Wonderland Festival. But beneath the lights and holiday cheer, something evil is stirring — and it’s not a mouse.

When a mysterious package arrives on the doorstep of veteran police officer Matthew Klein and his family's home, it seems, at first, like a harmless holiday gift. However, there’s no tag and no sender. Inside lies an antique wooden advent calendar with strange engravings and twenty-four doors that each shelter something dark and unspeakable.

The line between reality and nightmare quickly becomes blurred as Matthew races to figure out the calendar’s origin and who sent it. But as each door is opened, and Marshport is thrust into a sinister nightmare, Matthew realizes the terrifying truth and is forced to relive the horrors from his past that refuse to stay buried.

The countdown has begun. And once that first door is opened …there’s no turning back.

ADVENT OF EVIL is an advent calendar-style horror story, written by Scott Donnelly (Cheater, Cheater, Mothman: Return to Point Pleasant, Sea Devil & more), based on a concept by Darren Marlar (host of Weird Darkness).
