  • It’s actually a very good weird fiction podcast.

    All the negative reviews are from maga people about the podcast’s political stance, not the quality of the show.

  • Updated review - Intro music is incredible

    Stop making political commentary. Nobody listens to horror podcasts for that reason. Plus you’re a liberal hack, and therefore partially responsible for all the homos, weirdos, immigrants, fraudsters, and other dumb stuff ruining this nation. Tell us you’re a sick freak without telling us.
