A hard-boiled audio mystery baked in noir absurdity.

In a city where butter is contraband and everything has a price, Russett O’Grady works the darker corners of produce society. He’s a detective. Also a potato. Worn coat, tired eyes, and a past no one talks about anymore.

Each case pulls him deeper into a world that’s equal parts ridiculous and familiar. Unlicensed mash dens. Counterfeit hash rings. A sweet potato killer with something to prove.

Created by the team behind Enigmatorium, this series blends mystery and satire into something strange, dark, and oddly touching.

New episodes drop each month.

Greetings, brave souls. I am Professor Adontes Finch, your guide through the shadowy realms of fear and the unknown. Step into The Nightmare Trials, where fact and fiction blur, and the most chilling tales come to life.

These aren’t mere stories of fantasy or wild imagination—each tale is steeped in terrifying truth. Passed down to me for analysis and experimentation, these accounts of horror have been meticulously dissected with the help of my loyal lab assistants and cutting-edge technology. Our mission? To unravel the deepest, darkest mysteries that lurk in the shadows and the sinister unknown.

Here in the lab, we dive into realms haunted by unspeakable creatures, eerie coincidences, and supernatural forces. Every episode pushes the boundaries of your understanding of the macabre. But beware—these stories aren't for the faint-hearted.

Prepare yourself for a journey through dread, fear, and the supernatural. Together, we will confront the horrors that defy reason, and with your help, we will unlock the unspeakable secrets that most dare not face.

So, strap in tight... the trials are about to begin.

An entire town... gone. Without a trace. No signs, no warnings. Just silence. This is the story of Cold Sparrow.

Twenty-four years ago, the peaceful town of Cold Sparrow became the center of one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in modern history. Every resident vanished. Among them, the enigmatic billionaire Benjamin Veers, whose strange ways made him an icon of intrigue. The town, once forgotten, now infamous. The questions? Endless. The answers? Nonexistent.

For over two decades, investigators have been left baffled—cults, kidnappings, disappearances—none have led them closer to the truth. But now, three celebrated private investigators—famous for bringing down one of the most dangerous cults in history—have been called upon to tackle this mystery. Known for taking on the cases no one else could solve, they’re determined to uncover what really happened in Cold Sparrow.

Yet, the deeper they dig, the darker the whispers become. Rumours swirl of something far more sinister than anyone ever imagined. Could the mystery of Cold Sparrow be tied to forces that reach far beyond our world? Could it be linked to something... infernal?

Some mysteries, once uncovered, may be better left untouched. Cold Sparrow: A town that disappeared... but something still lingers in the shadows.

The investigation begins... now.
