What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Wow, what a great concept - classic supernatural mysteries caused by disease that are intricately described and “investigated”, with incredibly detailed and layered world building that fleshes out the culture and religion surrounding these diseases. I started this podcast on a whim but now that I’ve finished, I cannot wait for more!

amyyyy_y · Mar 2025

I don’t know how I stumbled upon this podcast, but I’m very glad I did. I’ve never listened to a fiction podcast, but this one drew me in with the fantastic world building, the great writing and the excellent voice acting. I listened to the entire season over the past two days, and can’t wait to see what another season will bring. I’m going to support on Patreon to get the extra content. Highly recommended.

TerranceDC · Jan 2025

Just as unique and as rich as anything in “horror” pods. I consume hundreds of hours of podcasts a month and have for years and frankly most of the well has run dry. Zachary’s work is precise, beautifully developed, and vivid.

BWalk2007 · Jan 2025

I love the attention paid to the biology of it all, and how, despite the academic framing of the narrative, the characters’ emotions and reasonings are all communicated so well. The worldbuilding, where so much centers around biologics and diseases but with a strong religious influence, is also deeply fascinating. I couldn’t reccommend this enough!
