Not worth it
I listened to this entire show, start to finish and I can’t in good conscience recommend it. It starts out enthralling but quickly becomes too proud of its own story. Combine that with a plot that perpetually spins of into pointless and ridiculous tangents (Rumpelstiltskin and US “President Andrew Garfield [sic]” are name dropped as spooky baddies). The ending is genuinely one of the worst finales I’ve ever consumed, especially for a show that spent three seasons patting itself on the back for its scary mysteries. If you do want to listen, have a friend handy to laugh and/or scream in vitriolic rage with at this train wreck.

This podcast is so awesome! I really hope that is can expand for more than one season because the style is incredible. Possibly another season can be the investigation into urban legends with Dr. Strand? So great! Definitely worth a lesson!

This is easily the best new podcast I've heard in months. This is what Serial would be if it were set in Night Vale.Read full review »
