The Heresies of Radulf Burntwine: A Horror, Dark Fantasy, Medical Mystery Audio Drama
Umberto Eco Meets H.P. Lovecraft in a world of Occult Academia, Laboratory Judaica. Heavily inspired by Jewish mythology, the world of Olam uses Hebrew, Arabic, Slavic and other real world languages and cultures to create a rich tapestry of a grim, fantastical, planet that doesn't sacrifice scientific accuracy or historicity.
THORB Aleph Case 004 The Exploding Man
As Radulf treats his apprentice's wounds, he recalls a very peculiar case from far back in his memory. A tale of greed, colonization, stupidity and explosions.
The Heresies of Radulf Burntwine sits at the intersection of dark fantasy, body horror, and forensic investigation. If you've ever wanted a podcast that treats disease and mythology with the same care as a true crime documentary, this is the show for you.
Radulf is not a hero. He's a disgraced curmudgeonly cleric with a terrible bedside manner and more pride than sense.
