Hi!

I have been following this blog for a while now and I love using it to find new podcasts. I was wondering, if you have time, what you think is the scariest podcast you've listened to or what your favorite horror podcasts might be? Thank you, and I hope you have a great day :)

I'm so glad to have helped you find new shows!

I don't really get scared by horror podcasts (not sure why. It isn't some "I'm tough" thing, I get startled by the toaster, and it's not like I never feel unsettled or concerned or icked out at podcasts, just not scared) so I'm not sure I can give you a good answer on that one, but I'll gladly give you ten of my personal favourites instead:

Alice Isn't Dead: The podcast that got me into podcasts. A truck driver travels the USA looking for her wife, who until recently, she had thought was dead. Along the way she has all manner of strange encounters, and sees a side to the world that few truely comprehend.

Archive 81: A young archivist takes a job at a remote outpost organising and digitising a collection of tapes. On the tapes is a series of interviews and investigations made by a social worker in the 90s as she becomes familiar with a bizzare apartment building. The archivist, naturally, has an increasingly bad time. Each season is part of the same story, but they're all a bit different.

Ghost Wax: Recorded interviews conducted by the last surviving necromancer, and various people who died under seemingly otherworldly circumstances.

Hello From The Hallowoods: Supernatural and cosmic horror. A powerful and dramatic entity visits your nightmares to relay stories of the people (to varying degrees of both human and alive) who inhabit the beautiful and deadly Hallowoods. What start off as individual stories quickly connect to a larger narrative.

Hi Nay: A supernatural horror following a young woman named Mari, who's babaylan (shaman) family background draws her into helping people with various horrific supernatural problems around Toronto. Formatted as phone calls to her mother telling her what's happened.

I Am In Eskew: Often-horrific stories from a man living in something that very much wishes to be a city, and a private investigator who was, in her words, hired to kill a ghost. Many people seem to agree this one is scary.

Janus Descending: A xenoarcheologist and a xenopaleontologist are sent to investigate and sample the ruins of a long-dead alien city, and discover more than they anticipated. The format for this one is really clever: you hear her audio logs first to last, and his last to first, and the story is all the more heartbreaking for it. I'd recommend listening to the supercut.

The Lost Cat Podcast: A man befriends strange entities, loses bits of himself and drinks an awful lot of wine while looking for his cat. Soft and cosmic horror.

The Moon Crown: The shortest on this list, but also one of the most fascinating. A disgraced scribe living in a city of humans, beasts, and other bizzare entities, begins to recount recent happenings, and actions she has a hard time explaining, on broadcast. But the people she's hoping to reach might not be the ones listening.

The Silt Verses: In a modern world where gods are plentiful, both illicit and commercialised, two disciples of an outlawed river god go on a pilgrimage.

Although, maybe some other listeners can help me out and share what scared them?

Good morning,

it's #audiodramasunday!

This week I relistened to the Moon Crown because it definitely feels like one where you relisten and pick up things you didn't the first time round. This was indeed the case. Also the sound design is a series of creepy binaural jumpscares.

Caught up on Hallowoods. Nikignik's crack about Lady Ethel's dress sense made me cackle.

Caught up on Monstrous Agonies as well. The early 90s episode are great for listeners calling in who make you make an uncomfortable face getting gently binned by the host. It really has been a week for sass.

The neurodivergence committee in my brain finally approved Desert Skies and they were correct to do so. This show deserves it's praise - the comic timing is pristine, the plots balance warm and funny with sorrowful and moving, the world building doesn't feel overwhelming and the powerful electro-trance soundtrack fits the otherwordly-but-worldly vibe perfectly. It took me a while to notice this is another solo-showrunner doing voices, which is a mark of mad skillz. I love Mac but then I think I'm supposed to.

…. * small sad voice * and Shrimp and Crits is nearly finished and I'm not even over Ari yet.

Do you ever imagine two characters from an audio drama meeting? And the chaos it would be?

Jonathan Sims and Nikignik...

Silas from Syntax and Milo from The Night Post...

Ashley from October's Children and Junie from The Aberrant Report...

Lou from The Moon Crown and Arthur Lester from Malevolent

Well I guess it's that time of the week again! Happy Audio Drama Sunday!

Here is what I've listened to this week:

The Moon Crown

I listened to @themooncrownpod again this week with some friends and the amount of detail in the world and even just the sound design is incredible. I could listen 5 times and I'd find something new every time.

The Moon Crown is a high fantasy horror. You discover this world of vampires, Filipino folklore, and mystery with the help of Lou and their radio broadcasts. There is a lot to unravel along the way!

The Silt Verses

I've been listening to@thesiltverses on my plane, and the world they built is so intriguing. Gods and their worship are embedded into the daily lives of these characters, almost always in such violent ways. But the river draws you in, as well as Carpenter's devotion to it. I'm only on chapter 5, but I will definitely continue to listen to see where the story goes!

Hello From The Hallowoods

I want to congratulate@hellofromthehallowoods on 100 eps! The ep Centuries is just as grand as the name suggests! I've loved following along with this series and William has been an inspiration for me and my podcast since the start! I'll be listening til Nikignik finally says goodbye

Book of Constellations

I started Book of Constellations! I've only listened to episode one so far, but I'm enticed by the way the narrator carries the story. It feels just like a book, as the name suggests. It's emotional, even in episode one, so watch out. But truly lovely so far!

I'll definitely be listening to more of this podcast throughout the week 

The Aberrant Report

Tacking this on at the end because I can, but don't forget to check out The Aberrant Report if you'd like! It follows an impulsive unethical student journalist as she solves a paranormal mystery in her college town. Highly recommend for obvious reasons ;)
