WHERE DO I START?!
@eelerschoice has an incredible world to explore and dives head long into generational trauma and environmental destruction. Amazing character interactions, well paced, and reaaaaally fun sound design. They are also doing their funds drive for SEASON FRICKEN 2! @lawofnamesmedia's At the Bottom of the Garden uses fairies as a means to explore stories about the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves (and others) and the writing is exquisite so far. I am only a few episodes into this but it has me in a chokehold.
@strangekindstudio Mercy: A Queer Eldritch Western. Set during the Wild West, full of super rich characters (like I am envious of how well they are written), and kicks it off with a monster that is SUPER fun and unique. I literally check each day to see if the next episode has dropped. @thegospelofhaven Give this one a go. You will like it, trust me from there. Just know the sound design is very very very... wet.
@goodmorningevildoers just wrapped their first season and I am so happy I stumbled on this one. It takes the "radio personality" and flips it on it's head a bit. It is super fun and quick, I swear the longer episodes flew by.

Your support has been incredible, so appreciated, and insanely validating. When you put a creative piece of yourself out there, you dream of it finding the right audience and it is incredible to me that this show has resonated with so many folxs. Knowing that 10,000 people gave us a shot blows my mind.

So, speaking on behalf of the incredible cast and crew, we at the Dead West thank you so much for showing up & showing our story love! Spotify Apple Web Your Preferred Player
it's simple really: october is for horror movies with highly stylized villains and iconic monsters because they make for good costumes. early november is for gothic horror because of the fog and decay etc. late november is for zombies (commentary on consumerist culture). december is for psychological horror and stuff where they're trapped in a room because that's when you have to go to holiday parties with your family.
Inspired by @fyeahaudiodrama's do you love the color of the audio drama?, I have finally reorganised the contents my podcatcher:

Gothic Western is one of my favorite sub-genres to sit with and enjoy. Now, I have started Preacher based on several recommendations but when I went to watch it Netflix played the last episode first and I was ignorant to the fact until pretty far in, so I had the a lot of the ending spoiled. I want to go back but I find the motivation hard to find. Also, special mention to Penny Dreadful and Supernatural for being super formative for Dead West but neither really sits firmly within Western Gothic.
Dead West is a horror audio fiction series that is a blend of folk horror and weird western themes told in a re-imagined American Gilded age. A time when everything was stolen, blood was let, and society grappled with modernity. Find our show on all Podcatchers! Be sure to leave a rating and review.
