INTRIGUE AND TERROR!

Great podcast! Still, it seems it needs to continue with Natalie investigating that terrifying and horrible barn - and farm - in Ohio! I look forward to the 2nd part - DON'T disappoint your listeners!

Very interesting! Kept me captured

I really was surprised how this drew me in, it’s not like anything I’ve listened to on audible. It’s creepy, thrilling, and gave me goosebumps! Very good! Make more!!

A Must Listen!

I don’t normally write reviews, but I wanted to take some time out to give props where props are due! From the voice-over actors & production to the storyline & over all performance, there isn’t a single piece of negative criticism I would give. This is a must listen for all my fellow Audible Listeners! I only wish it were longer, I enjoyed it so much! Season 2?? YES PLEASE!

The Finale, I was not expecting Natalie's description of Peter.

Great story. I can't wait for part two.
I now know that I can expect the unexpected.

Pretty Good

This was pretty good. Although I think 6 episodes was too short. I would have liked things to be fleshed out a bit more.

Lovingly Lovecraftian

Almost immediately I began to wish this story would go on much longer than I knew it would. It's not easy to walk the line between homage and originality when it comes to HP Lovecraft, but this offering does just that. I enjoyed it immensely! Please give it a try... you have nothing to lose except a good nights sleep.

You have better options

Story takes a wild twist at the end but the new “truth” seems less reliable and certainly less interesting than the old. Puzzle pieces do not add up and loose ends waggle, even after allowing for effects of possibly unreliable narration. Cookie cutter audio verite that has been done elsewhere substantially better.
