Summary
Hello Detectives! Today we are delighted to introduce you to The Lion and the Adder, who are wrapping up their crowdfund soon and need our help to produce this season of top-tier historical detective-based audio fiction! (Check out their crowdfund HERE RIGHT HERE.)
The Lion and the Adder is the first season of a new audio drama series from Monstrous Productions inspired by the Golden Age of detective fiction. When a young man disappears in a suspected demonic possession, Robin Sylvester - a physicist specializing in the science of demon summoning - is called in to help solve the case.
He’s joined by Detective Inspector Nicholas Hawthorn and consulting psychic Evelyn “Bash” Sebastian in a 1920s supernatural detective story that blurs the lines between science, magic and religion.
If you love the work of Agatha Christie, Margery Allingham, and Dorothy Sayers and wondered what that style of prose sounded like mixed with plenty of supernatural elements and heart, fully produced with a full voice cast and immersive sound design then head on over to Monstrous Production’s Kickstarter to check out more about the show! Thanks so much for listening and enjoy this exclusive preview of The Lion and the Adder.
