They just randomly are in a new setting and you have to figure that out or more likely, get lost.

I tried listening to this twice. The voices and effects as well as performances by all artists are absolutely great, but there is no sense of timeline about what’s happening, where it’s happening and why. Absolutely worst piece of storytelling in terms of timeline.

I have loved all the other violet hout podcasts but this one is just too hard to follow. It jumps around a ton and there’s far too many characters to keep in check. Also uses a bunch of made up space words which would make sense if we could maybe see those things to put a name to something but in...Read full review »

So production and staff wise it’s pretty good. How ever, it moves around to fast and jumps around. I had a really hard time following the story and the main characters motivation. The crew was more or less cannon faughter. Ending was a bit cheesy. Over all this is not something that I liked. It...Read full review »

Great story line and have enjoyed it to date. Up to Ep 13 and looking forward to the next one. It’s the first time I’ve been caught up in a fiction podcast like this. Recommended to those who like something different.

This show is the dullest thing written. It presents itself as a sci-fi horror, with a name like hollow, but nothing remotely resembling horror. It feels so disconnected to the writers, the voice actors, to the scene. Their are too many characters to keep track of other than the lead Amelia and...Read full review »

Like other reviews mention, so very hard to follow what’s going on. ‘Scene’ changes are abrupt and confusing, all of a sudden everything happens. Walking away listening to all episodes but regretting the time spent

Some of the worst acting I’ve heard. Good try though.

Don’t waste your time… Doesn’t make sense and all over the place…biggest waste of time
rhtjhbdbf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/23
The story is basically Apocalypse Now in space, better to watch the original than listen to someone space knockoff.
socstonewall via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/23
The story is hard to follow. Cant tell if its going linear or jumping back and forth from present to past. The sections are cut off at really awkward moments leaving you feel like its unfinished. And when they start off again, new characters are introduced making it feel really disjointed.
Aewv via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/12/23
Couldn’t tell what was going on (who was doing what, where it was being done, what was being done and when they stopped/finished doing what was being done) half of the time. The pacing was terrible and the sound effects/ambient sounds couldn’t do enough to situate the story
Nobie1ne via Apple Podcasts · Nigeria · 12/30/22
Great writing style very reminiscent of the movie apocalypse now. Very riveting
Vic man 52 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/27/22
It’s pretty clear a lot of production value and talent went into sound design, editing and voice acting. Yet the writing and pacing is absolute bottom shelf and completely incoherent. I couldn’t make it past the 3rd episode. It’s honestly really sad.
king_beedorah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/22
1. This podcast does a terrible job of letting you know who is talking. Can’t even follow the plot. 2. I understand one of the characters has tinnitus, but surely you realize that playing a high pitched ringing noise AGAIN AND AGAIN in every single episode is unpleasant for listeners? Now I have...Read full review »

Storyline is choppy and uninteresting.
Wootsy1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/22
Very much enjoy listening to this podcast. Great voice acting, great sound effects and music, fantastic story definitely would recommend to my friends. A small suggestion from me to anyone listening to this podcast would be that you read the information on the episode before listing, it helped me...Read full review »

I loved the concept and story idea but the execution was horrendous. The storyline can barely be followed, the characters are not defined well or identified in scenes, and the timeline is confusing at best. This story needs a major rewrite.
Jaixin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/14/22
The story jumps around too much. This lack of continuity and context makes the plot too confusing to follow at times. I say this as someone who enjoys non-linear/non-traditional narrative structures in film and tv! The way the story is presented here in audio format just misses the mark for me.
CrispySpringRoll via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/22
Interesting take on Apocalypse Now
Tundrahdesert via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/06/22
Want to like this as I have your other podcasts but I agree with several other reviewers that it’s very difficult to understand what’s happening. Timeline jumps, nothing is really explained about the world that’s been created, I actually find it very hard to believe that the 5-star reviewers...Read full review »
js987! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/22
Constant jumps from scene to scene with no apparent timeline. I really tried because the story could have been soooo good
Scott-n-Jen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/22
Story line seems cool, but I’m Also not quite sure what it is? I really tried to listen and always felt like I was missing half the script. Scenes jump with no timeline, no introduction to new characters, no context. Continuously confused as to how long it’s been and what we are doing. Actors...Read full review »
Elhat88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/22
This One has so much potential but the plot gets lost in the script. This is audio, you have to lead your audience a bit more . Describe your surroundings and location. I know it’s dragging if you get bogged down in details but we need more information. Having knowledge of the original story...Read full review »
LeroyLightniin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/15/22
Meh
The story line is impossible to follow and you don’t know who’s who and what’s happening. Lost interest immediately cause it felt too unorganized and disconnected
Arizonasky_ via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/11/22
Like the voice actors but no clue what’s going on about half the time. Seems to jump plot lines erratically and have to assume what happened after a scene occurs
MsTimory via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/22
I really liked this one at the start, but around episode 7 I started getting really lost in parts. I would rewind to see if I missed something but was just as confused. With a good amount of characters doing different things, we really need more clarity in the transition to an action scene. If...Read full review »
Lorilovesyou1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/20/22
It’s well produced and acting is good but I’m on episode 5 and not sure what’s going on. Maybe I’ve got too much ADD to catch all the details but the story seems to jump around
dozer33101 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/19/22
if it wasn't for th f bomb being dropped ever other word it might be good. i gave it 2 stars only becuase i liked the 1st episode other wise it would have been 1 star or less if i could.Read full review »
Lambert791969 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/22
So I’m not so sure about this one. The setting seems amazing and intricate. But I literally have no idea what’s going on in most episodes. Someone else posted a comment about jumping ahead with no explanation and I agree. This seems like it might have been a good story but not in this format....Read full review »
Warsmith Khonrad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/22
Mediocre writing aside, constant tones above ~15k is incredibly irritating and makes the show entirely unlistenable.
StryderWilk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/04/22
This is a fun retelling of Joseph Conrad’s Hearts of Darkness. Definitely a fun listen.
ServiceMonkey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/22
The music and well scripted, fast paced dialogue combine to create a feeling that you’re inside of the production. Probably the coolest effect I’ve seen in the podcast world. I like the sci-fi piece too since it makes it feel less scary. Will be actively awaiting the next episode!
martyhu1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/22
Loved this podcast!! It was suspenseful and well produced. The Violet Hour just keeps cranking out winners!! Can’t wait to hear the rest!!
JB loves Dennys via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/30/22
Obviously there’s only been two episodes so far, but this take on “Heart of Darkness” has a sci-fi twist to it that’s very enticing. Can’t wait to see where it goes next.
Sensei834 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/30/22
This show is the perfect blend of action and sci-fi. Exactly what I’ve been looking for in a podcast! It makes me feel like I’m in it with them.
Murph1283 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/30/22
So the original group of 5 star reviews seem rather fishy to me. I’m thinking someone gave people a kickback for a 5 star review. Anyway, the main actress is pretty good, and the storyline itself could be good. The dialogue seems forced at times. Others it seems as though people are reading...Read full review »

Just couldn’t wait so I subscribed to listen to the whole show early, what an amazing show
belovedgarden via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/22
Been looking for my next horror podcast to binge and this one is perfect.
Yagirlg702 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/22
I wish all Realm shows are released at once so one can binge; and fully and better enjoy the show/story/podcast production.
Karttikeya via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/22
Really intriguing first episode! I may just have to shell out for the rest of the season…
drybsxd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/22
You can tell this was really made for horror fans. SO good.
Micoulte via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/23/22
Always looking for interesting horror podcasts and into this retelling of a classic. Maybe I’ll even try to binge more this weekend!
TangoDuo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/21/22
Only listened to episode 1 so far but am loving this. Really makes me feel like I’m on a different planet and the story is simple enough to follow but I’m intrigued with where it’s going. Plus Pinhead as the scary villain? Can’t wait for more episodes!!!
Cinderella via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/21/22
That. Yes. I must reiterate - Hollow is solid existential creeping dread. Nicely done! For fans of Saturn 3, Ridley Scott, and A24.
I'm not Kurt Russell or Am I? via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/21/22
Must binge this one
