Welcome to Gray Matter Video, the only video rental store where you can find tapes telling 'true' tales of horrific transformation, bodily destruction, and death from all across the dimensional spectrum.
With a blend of original stories from author Jonathan Inbody in the proud tradition of Carpenter and Cronenberg, and modern adaptations of classic Weird Fiction tales from authors like H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe, this full-cast scifi-horror anthology explores the blurred line between psychology and biology alongside the flawed and fragile depths of human nature when faced with the hideous unknown.
At Gray Matter, everything is horribly, brutally possible. Will you let it get under your skin?

Customer Reviews
Nostalgic and Creepy
If you’re looking for a podcast to time travel back to your days as a kid wandering the horror movie shelves at your local video VHS rental store, this is for you.
Nothing has scratched that itch since they closed the video stores down. Give it a shot.
Goosebumps for Adults
Gray Matter has easily become my favorite podcast to listen to. It’s so easy to get lost in the stories. From the script writing, to the acting, to the sound effects and editing, this podcast is very well done. It’s reminiscent of Goosebumps or Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark but with a more mature twist. Jonathan’s retelling of classic stories, along with his own writings, are clever and will incite a little bit of the good kind of uncomfortable feeling in you. His R.L. Stine way of introducing you into each episode will transcend you back to the 90s with a catchy theme song to follow. Personally, the psychological episodes such as All You Faithful or Jackrabbit etc. are the true hits. But if you are more of a monster mash kind of person then you will not go wrong with Chrysalis or Lock the Door. All in all, Jonathan and Jeff AKA Word Search Media Productions is doing something right. I look forward to what seeing what else these VHS tapes have in store.
Intro music is incredible
