An Underrated Podcast With Unparalleled Atmosphere
There’s a lot of genres you could categorize Eskew under, and a lot of comparisons you could make to other podcasts that focus on weird places where weird things happen, but none of them manage to build the atmosphere and mood as well as David’s narration of his experiences in Eskew. From the first episode, the relentless rain becomes a familiar backdrop that manages to tie together the strange and melancholic world he inhabits. The horrors he finds within it are ones that always seem to begin as banal, slightly “off” experiences, ones that may be familiar to listeners, but escalate in a way that always brings me chills. Have you ever lived in a big city, and been walking back to your apartment at a very late or very early hour, when the streets are completely empty? Your brain, fighting off the fog of sleep, might suddenly be overcome by a feeling of unease. Not that you aren’t alone, but rather that you *are* alone, and that the only thing that has and ever existed is you and the twisting streets that seemed so familiar in the day time...and that scares you. This is the feeling that I find Eskew evokes in me when I listen to it. And I love it. Great job to the folks behind it, and thanks for a new ongoing favorite.

The best audio drama I've listened to. Well-written, perfectly paced, and well-acted. Perfects the "calm narrator" of spooky occurances genre. Only audio drama I've ever wanted to replay as soon as it was finished. One of the best pieces of horror/drama media I've found, not...Read full review »
