I love you Harlan, thank you for creating this masterpiece.
It’s the absolute, greatest mythos story I have ever heard. It beats all Lovecraft. It beats all Call of Cthulhu. It beats Arkham Horror and anything written within what is my favorite setting. Thank you to the creator and actors. If you start this journey, do not stop.
It’s so hard to find such a spectacular podcast as this one. I can’t believe I found it, I’m so excited. I’m obsessed!
I love it! I wasn't really invested in the first couple of episodes, but as the story progressed, I started enjoying it more and more. Lilith was the one who made this audio drama for me not just good, but great. Besides that, I love the theme of hope in the story. Even though the story dark and filled with horrors, I feel that it's core, it's about humanity and care for each other. And I love how poetic the story is, it is filled with poems and music.
Harlan, you are SO talented! This is SUCH an impressive piece of art, from the characters to the storyline to the writing and voice acting. I’ve listened through twice now while I’m at work and I’m so attached, some episodes move me to tears. Can’t wait to hear more episodes.

A tense, serialized fiction with noir crime and cosmic horror elements set in Arkham. Narratives center on Arthur Lester, a memory-impaired private investigator, as he confronts occult forces, shadowy factions, and moral ambiguity across intertwined investigations. Production is notable for immersive sound design and a claustrophobic atmosphere, often driven by a single creator who writes, performs, and scores the work. Across episodes, listeners cite gripping plotting, dense lore, and a willingness to push traditional genre boundaries, making it a standout for fans of dark, introspective thrillers with Lovecraftian echoes.
A few highlights include: tightly wound investigations that blend procedural tension with otherworldly dread, memorab... more
