Good but flawed.
I just finished season 2 (10-3-20). I found this similar to Limetown or Darkest Night. The short stories of each episode are quite intriguing. If you don’t think too critically, it’s pretty decent. I found a few things that took me out of the experience. The pauses to play music at a “dun-dun-dun” moments cut the narration and went too long which broke immersion for me. And in some of the documents supposed to be police reports or such were too detailed as a report from the perspective of some one who just experienced trauma. However the descriptions of the scenes were well written and allowed you to visualize it all in your head, but a person in flight or flight mode would not usually recall such details. Once the religious aspect of demons or the similarities of Hydra to MK Ultra were brought in, it kinda lost me as well. That all being said, I gave a listen all the way through just to see if my expectations would be subverted and give it a chance to maybe steer away from those tropes. The parts that are good are good, the parts that are bad are noticeable. So I still give this podcast a high rating, because despite its flaws, I still wanted to listen. I look forward to see what season 3 will bring and how things get tied together.

Saw this was a new show by (or acquired by?) Rusty Quill. The sound quality is ok but the stories just sound like super standard creepypastas or NoSleep stories. A guy who grins, creepy looking people, there’s nothing unique here and it’s kind of dull in execution. Really disappointing follow up...Read full review »

I always discover podcasts long after they’ve first launched - but hey at least I’m here now. I am liking the topics, narration and variety.

This podcast has the feel of The Black Tapes, but with more varied content and a less abrasive skeptic stance from the narrator. I’m not a huge fan of how the sound effects are included, but I think the podcast is well worth listening too
