SPOILER!!!! Episode 1, when Karina talked about being excited to get engaged and having a loving family and whatnot, my first thought was "she's not coming back...." 😂

Recently the newly formed (relatively) Second Wind has this advertized at the end of a video. OH MAN I am loving this!

Jesus, I didn't notice that the recorded sound was sayimg one of their names until Walther pointed it out. Fucking terrifying.

Scary interesting lead me here and didn't disappoint I just binge listened to the first season and this is seriously amazingly well written, acted, and produced I'm looking forward to more

Promotion from Scary Interesting also led me here. Wonderful creation, and excellent storytelling.

Absolutely Astounding! It's such a rarity to find a series as engaging and terrifying as this one. I mean properly terrifying too (that ever elusive paranoid, can't-fall-asleep kind). Keep up the stunning work!

Scary Interesting's shout out! Also THIS IS SCARY AF

Old Gods of Appalachia brought me here - gotta high five the Family, too.

Absolutely BRILLIANT, I'm completely sucked in and NEED more!! lol Fortunately for me I began listening only a week ago, so I still have another season or two to look forward to, I am loving this!! WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD... MANY thanks to the creators, I'm writing this just at the beginning of episode ten,.... What's going to happen with the teeth!!!????? Trying not to say too much here in case people read the comments first. This channel REALLY should have more advertising etc etc, people are missing out!! LOVE THE WHITE VAULT!!

So, having now listened to all of season 1, here are my impressions. Overall a very enjoyable and well made production with decent enough pacing and a creeping sense of unease. The first time I heard the radio transmission I had genuine goosebumps. My main objections would be that I really disliked Dr. Schumacher the way she was written. Her arc as the "afflicted" is a classic element of stories like these, but she was in the end almost annoyingly passive and her tearfulness was turned solely inwards, never affecting or even showing itself to any other character. No one listened to her at all, which was very strange to me. If I was an experienced polar worker and a member of my team upon waking up from a serious injury said they were attacked by something making them jump, I would assume that there might for example have been a polar bear that had gained access to the cave complex from another tunnel or crevasse. Instead the rest of the team not only does not believe her, but also do not come to the conclusion that she has some sort of brain damage from her fall. They just don't... react to her state. Schumacher herself acts as if none one believed her though, to the point that she doesn't talk to anyone about anything, which I think misses out on a lot of interesting interaction with the other characters. The rise of digital media and recording has given a lot more space for the found record type of horror story, but unfortunately at the end of this series, the plot has started to bump up against its limitations. And tbf I think the writer kind of felt that too, since you have characters trying to justify why they are writing things down, which unfortunately has the opposite effect and broke the fourth wall a couple of times. It's not on the level of Robert Bloch's "Notes Found In An Abandoned House" or Lin Carter's "They're coming through the door as I write this, they AAAAGH", but having the story end with was is essentially an action scene instead of a mysterious event was a choice that was very hard to execute effectively. I think a better take if you wanted to end with Schumacher's abduction would have been to make the scene a lot more chaotic, with gun shots, screams and howling winds, cutting off abruptly. The shaky note by the transmitter... It didn't really work, sorry to say. All that said though, I did like the story a lot, everything else was of a markedly above average quality and will be happy to listen to the next season.

I just marathoned the first season I’m glad I did. It kinda has an alien feel to me.

great soundscaping. I can feel the cold

Idk if I’m gonna be able to hear all of the episodes but I am so freaked out. Binge watching while hurricane literally blows outside. I keep taking my AirPods out not knowing if the sound is the wind and rain outside or the video. I hope I can find all of the episodes I can’t go to bed until I know what’s happening. Lol ❤

It was a true pleasure finding and listening to this. Having been caught up on the no sleep podcast I was trying to find something similar and i'm sooooooo happy I ended up here. YOU GUYS ROCK!

Amazing first season! Thank you for your work! As a native Spanish speaker it was very slightly off-putting that the Spanish spoken by Rosa didn't sound native, but it's perfectly understandable and a very minor thing.

Scary interesting sent me this way and finished season 1 it was pretty good. Enjoyed it alot I'll countinue and probably check out other series

Finished and needless to say I'm gripped! Going to make a start listening to the second season right away!

I watched all the videos from Scary Interesting and his latest video sent me here. I'm so glad I could binge listen to this on my 8 hour shift and it being quite a thrilling adventure. Sound quality and effects were perfect. Kind of reminded me of the game, The Long Dark. 10/10, and now I'm ready for Season 2. 😁

Definitely feeling Lovecraft and Campbell, and that's just FANTASTIC! Just binged 1st season (Horror Babble directed me here) and I haven't heard great Arctic Horror like this in a very long time. Subbed and getting ready for the remaining seasons! You People really are Professional and Highly Entertaining!

I want a TV Series about this. 8000 listeners only, its fking awesome. Spread the word.

I'm so happy to find it. I've binged the season and recommended it to everyone:3

Ah I can't wait to start season 2 tomorrow!!!!! This was so amazing! This made me love podcast

aaaaa what an ending!!!! it may be the first time i’ve looked forward to work, and only for the opportunity to listen to this episode at last!! i’m selfishly glad that i came in so late so that i can binge the whole show. on to the next!!

I have listened to this story in it's entirety three times now

Scary Interesting led me here

Thank you for this! Holy shit that was a cliffhanger (not so much since season 2's already out but still!)! I'm so glad I listened to this. Looking forward to season 2 later!

the quality of this is amazing im so glad I found this gem

Utterly superb and jolly well done 👍🏻

I absent-mindedly saved episode 1 to my Watch Later a few weeks ago after seeing the ad on Second Wind. Needed to do some spring cleaning today so I thought "Hey, I'll give this series a go" Welp, here I am now and it's gonna be night time soon. You guys did an amazing job! I just don't think my broom is going to be much help against the things lurking in the night 😕

Let’s Read (Joel) brought me here. Super glad he did!

Really good story and outstanding production. 👏

Also sent here by scary interesting. Such a goood season so creepy and the perfect feeling. Love it

I commented on the first episode, had no idea I'd binge this the rest of the night but I'm so happy to be here!!! This is beautiful, diving into season two!! ❤❤

I think it wants to build more stairs.

How does this fly under the radar! Only found this via scary interesting. This is so good!! ❤

What an amazing season!! Best I've heard!!

Enjoyed this!

I came here following the recommendation of Scary interesting. Great work guys, reminded me of when I was a kid and listened to radio novellas on the way to school (though those were not as cool as this one), keep it up. You definitely made a follower and a supporter out of me :)

❤❤

Amazing season great job!

A fantastic series ..... I honestly can't even tell if this is real or not haha 😅😅😅 I decided to keep listening and will suggest to the rest of my artic exploration team to listen as well.

"Oddly enough, get me something from the freezer".

I have greatly enjoyed the series after binge listening to it yesterday. The ending though, the ending, i mean that woman being taken thats all, really…😔

The tension builds steadily with each episode. The short, vague reveals of the cause of the terror & turmoil invite the imagination to darker and darker flights of fancy. Some final notes re captions (English). The auto generation truly is atrocious with the same words being translated differently each time, often incorrectly. The rare profanities, while spoken clearly, are never translated. The reason I keep harping about captions is that I'm a visual learner, my comprehension increases exponentially when the spoken is paired with print. Given that this is performance based, there must be a script that was read and I see no reason why that script could not have been attached as a transcript. Finally, since no one appears to have survived the expedition I'm left believing that there are new boxes in the auditorium and fresh teeth embedded in new stairs to the depths.

I desperately wish I could be a part of this team.

Allright, leading thesis until now: Its all the coffee. Think about it: Probably the storyteller want to go for something more sinister, but i think, they simply all fall victim to poisoning through the water/the coffee they make of it. Lead poisoning cant lead to mental illness that quick, but the sheer amount of coffee they all consume constantly apparently makes them hallucinate, paranoid and probably soon followed by hysteria. After all, everything that happened so far are "noises", figures, supposed teeth, sabotage, supposed scratch marks... Its the contaminated coffee, i tell you^^.

I'd be so annoyed of if it ended on a cliffhanger and tnen I had to wait for season two. Perks of being late to the party I guess!!!!!

This is so good! Is this the main place for the podcast?

Coffee😅

Fuck I would love meet you folks like you, like to come together and go on amazing adventures while the limit is your mind and your minds limit is your imgagination leading to Infinity.

How did you get client eastwood to read this?

... INTENTIONAL?!!!! @08:36

I like it..but i feel like...idk. the way Dr. Schumacher was written wasn't quite...best for the how the story played out? It's difficult to explain but i feel like the story could have been better if the way she was written, and how the other characters interacted with her, had more thought put into it.

Aaaaaaah!!! Omfg nooo!!

Came here from Second Wind and I am enjoying the slow burn and the atmosphere so far. However, I feel that Dr. Schumacher's character is a weak point in the writing. After her fall she stopped being a contributing member of the team and instead became a constant whiny victim. Her recording leaned too heavily into "I have a loving family and so much to live for" that she was practically holding a neon sign saying "I sure hope nothing bad happens to me in particular". She stopped being a character stuck in a horror situation like the rest of the cast and became a full blown '"horror movie character" instead. During her teary recording and her being taken I felt nothing for her, in fact I was a little relieved to potentially be hearing less of her. I can tell that's not what you were going for with her, but to make it effective Karina should have been more likable so that I fear for her and her being the first victim less telegraphed. Regardless, I will continue listening as I am impressed with the acting and production quality.

Used to be a huge fan of the No Sleep Podcast but they had cringey specials on "Feminist and Queer" horror and called their fans bigots who they didn't want listening after the inevitable eye rolling.

Was really enjoying the story till the end. Ending was not well executed nor did it even feel like an ending. I kept waiting for something to happen, on the edge of my seat the whole until this terrible ending. It felt as if there was one more episode, but it just stopped with no real seque towards anything.

Wow what a great series, with such a trash ending…
