Distoria differs from its sibling by means of a far more aged appearance and a sickly aesthetic that informs it with no small amount of menace.An artist, with no choices left to him, visits in hope that the dark myths attributed to the towns are true.Follow us on Twitter at @maeltopiaWant to learn more about the world of Burned by a Paper Sun?

Judith Beckett had always found comfort in abandoned places. They calmed her stormy mind, not to mention provided her a reprieve from the world she had grown to resent. The Tower of Teeth, a monument only a few miles from her town, stood against the world in a way she only wished she could. She envied it. She admired it. She wanted to know it. And on a cold October night, she met it.Follow us on Twitter at @maeltopiaWant to learn more about the world of Burned by a Paper Sun?

A horror anthology podcast exploring the shadows where reason falters and light dares not linger.Shadows come in a thousand shapes—some drawn long beneath a dying sky, others drifting and lost beneath a wandering cloud. Yet one certainty has always remained: every shadow must have a caster. But what if that isn’t true? What if darkness could stand on its own?Here, the familiar laws of nature crumble. The Tower of Teeth rises from the soil, the Corpse Flower Plague spreads its rot, and the Great Darkness of 1999 still stains the edges of memory. In these tales, science fails, faith fractures, and the night no longer needs the day to exist.Some stories stand alone; others intertwine—threads of a greater tapestry woven from nightmare and myth. Each reveals a fragment of the truth hiding in the dark… waiting to be seen.Welcome to a world where shadows live—and they are watching Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
