I absolutely loved this podcast and heard about it through searching for best audio dramas. It’s spooky, funny and engaging. It keeps you hooked with the underlying storyline becoming more prominent throughout the 5 series. The first series takes a few episodes to get into and then suddenly you’re hooked! I really enjoyed all the extra episodes (Q&As, gaming eps, episode commentaries etc) too, as the cast all have hilarious and charismatic personalities outside of the show. Highly recommend this show.

Love it, love it, love it!

The voice acting and sound effects are phenomenal the story truly slowly draws you in like a trap...by design.

Phenomenal.
