UNSEEN is the new urban fantasy audio fiction podcast by Long Story Short Productions. The premise behind it is simple: in a world where magic is real but invisible to almost everyone, for the few magical beings that exist every day is a struggle just to be seen.
Season one of UNSEEN will feature ten different stories of identity, connection, and personhood (and, of course, magic) in the modern world. Some of them will be thrilling adventures. Others may be sad and melancholic. Some may be creepy and unsettling. Each of them will feature a single performer, guiding the audience through a new, original modern fantasy landscape.

One of my favorites
I have three episodes left to listen to, and I am already sad thinking about it. This was such a joy to listen to- the sound production, the voice actors, the music, the well-written stories, everything is so well done. I felt immersed in the world they created. Just overall a top notch podcast.
Wonderful, immersive storytelling
Each episode is captivating and offers a unique perspective on this magical world. I just finished listening to the 2020 New Year’s special and was overjoyed to hear Beth and Felix together again. Fans of this show should definitely check out Wooden Overcoats!
