PODCAST EPISODE SUMMARY

"The Disappearance of Daniel Caldwell" – Detective Simon Harding is drawn into a baffling case when a man who seems to defy time itself appears in the middle of a busy street, only to vanish moments later. As Harding uncovers strange clues—such as a pocket watch frozen at the moment of the Titanic’s sinking—he’s left to wonder if this case is connected to something far older and more mysterious than a simple disappearance.

"The Blackout Experiment" – A group of researchers embarks on an experiment to eliminate the need for sleep, hoping to unlock the mind’s true potential. But as the participants endure sensory deprivation, they soon realize that the experiment may be erasing more than just their need for rest. With their minds unraveling in unexpected ways, they must confront the terrifying consequences of tampering with human consciousness.

"The Sacrifice" – In a remote mountain town, the residents live in peace thanks to a dark and deadly tradition. Every year, a sacrifice must be made to ensure the town’s survival. When the protagonist is inducted into this brutal ritual, he learns the true cost of living in a town where security comes at the price of human life.
