This House Will Devour You
This House Will Devour You is an epistolary audio drama told through the letters exchanged between Jon and Elizabeth. It blends gothic horror, romance, mystery and a slow-burn tale of love, madness, murder and dead gods. Season One unfolds across England and post-Civil War Ireland, centred on the secrets of Kilphaun Hall in County Waterford during the winter of 1925. Season Two shifts the action to Egypt while also returning to Ireland and England. The series is aimed at fans of creepy, slow-burn 1920s historical fiction and low-key horror.
