Old Gods of Appalachia

Afflicted is a horror thriller audio drama best described as Lovecraft Country meets True Blood, told in an anthology format like American Horror Story.

All seasons will feature characters who use the hoodoo belief system, and a demonic book bound in human flesh that wreaks havoc wherever it goes. Season 1 focuses on a small, East Texas town that suffers impossible natural disasters, and only the town's shunned hoodoo queen can save the town and its citizens, but will the fearful, overly religious citizens ensure their own demise?

Afflicted's creators plan to premiere on Halloween 2022, but only if they can pay everyone a fair wage.

Arkham Private Investigator Arthur Lester wakes up with no memory of who he is or what has happened, only a nameless, eerie voice guiding him through the darkness.

Blind, terrified, and confused, his journey will lead him towards a series of mysteries in the hopes of understanding the truth of what has transpired.

As cosmic horrors seep into the world around, Arthur must ask himself whether this entity truly seeks to help him, or are its intentions more… Malevolent.
