Description

Do not fear the dark, fear what darkness brings...


Arkham Private Investigator Arthur Lester wakes up with no memory of who he is or what has happened, only a nameless, eerie voice guiding him through the darkness.


Blind, terrified, and confused, his journey will lead him towards a series of mysteries in the hopes of understanding the truth of what has transpired.


As cosmic horrors seep into the world around, Arthur must ask himself whether this entity truly seeks to help him, or are its intentions more…


Malevolent


Malevolent is produced, written, edited, performed, scored & created by Harlan Guthrie.

"One moment of weakness doesn’t… have to redefine your entire journey. Would you have done anything different? Should you have? Where would we be if… if you had stuck to your guns, if you had spit in the eye of a god who had total and complete control over you?"
