  • A spooky and intriguing tale of a side gig on very very wrong. I enjoy that the stories were ultimately tied to each other. I can't wait for season two.

  • New and Notworthy Horror

    I've only just recently gotten into The Author's Anathema, but it's a solid story with great voice acting.

    Y'all should be listening to it now so that you can say you were there from the beginning!

  • Great show!

    I went into this podcast knowing nothing about it and was absolutely floored by the twist at the end of episode one (which is really just the premise of the show). The overarching plot is really intriguing and the individual stories are truly horrific (affectionate). I always enjoy listening!!

  • Of all the new podcasts I've been listening to lately, this one rings the closest to The Magnus Archives. However, it is very much it's own story and it's own world. The anecdotes are much more personal and connected. And I'm excited to see how the story unfolds.

  • I'm really into this so far! Each narrative in the stories have been really compelling (I was ESPECIALLY into episode 2 - chills!) and the overarching plot is starting to come together. The voice acting is also spectacular. Interested to see where this is going!
