THORB - Case 006 - The False Repose

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.

Case 006 - The False Repose

Soyuznyk steel foundry requests Radulf's aid in treating a necroleptic virus which causes patient's to die and revive ad nauseum. But in their brief, false repose, they witness a glimpse of the divine.

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.

This episode contains: descriptions of cannibalism, bodily decomposition, eye trauma, tissue decay, grief, and the death of multiple characters including a child, suicide.
