    Chapter 0.1: A Beast of Days Past (Season 2 Prologue)

    Chapter 0.1: A Beast of Days Past (Season 2 Prologue)

    For it's many years, The Fort, has had many monsters. Some of them men, or women - others clothed in fur, and others made of nothing but air, and a whisper, that sends all those who strain their ears to hear it, nose first in a sea of madness.
    Without knowing our past, we may never discern, with clear eyes, our present or future - so today I ask you to come with me, back into the past, before Peggy, before Reverend Albit, back to the early days of The Fort, when it was nothing but crooked shops, and crooked people living in a pocket of ramshackle civilization.
    To all townsfolk; We, The Fort's Town Council, welcome you to Season 2 of The Town Whispers!

    Chapter 0.2: From The Belly of the Beast Came Madness (Season 2 Prologue)

    Chapter 0.2: From The Belly of the Beast Came Madness (Season 2 Prologue)

    Richter slayed the beast, but Joshua, and Wyatt paid the price for that berserking boar's hide. Now The Fort must band together to try and salvage what's left of their hunting party - they must muster what little medical expertise resides in town, and hope that answers can be gleamed from the gore, and fast.

Creepy characters / creep story

So, this was my first horror podcast I’ve ever listened to, and I got into it pretty quick. Unfortunately I started season 2 before starting season 1 on accident, not paying attention. So I was confused a little bit of course. But I went back and started the podcast correctly, with season 1. The characters keep me on edge and are interesting. JACOB IS TERRIFYING but sooooo interesting. This podcast gave me goosebumps a lot, and has made me shed a few tears here and there. The only thing that kept it from 5 stars, was the voice acting. It is amazing how many voices one person can do, for so many different characters and it’s appreciated because I know it’s gotta be hard, but I wish I couldn’t tell so easily that most characters share the same voice actor. Other than that, the sound effects are realistic, which adds to the goosebumps at times. But overall, this podcast is pretty good, and I personally think worth investing in.

ya bish is bad ,

Absolutely amazing podcast.

I found this podcast after the magnus protocol began making episodes and cole wrote the most recent one. I absolutely loved the episode and really have only found the magnus archive that I was brave enough to put in the time and commitment into. But having lost that binge, I tried the town whispers. I was reluctant at first seconds, but so quickly I got completely pulling into the show. I listened to the whole first season within a week and love the changes in the second season so far. If you come into this podcast ready to hear a great story and immerse yourself then you’ll love this podcast. Other reviews seem to pic apart each and every line of the podcast, but regardless of that, the story has never done anything but keep my full attention!! Keep it up Cole ❤️❤️

Terrible writing

This well produced podcast suffers from the need for better writing. I wanted to like it but just could not wrap my head around some of the descriptions.
