An unexpected phone call turns Matthew Heawood’s attention to a mystery in the gloom of Rendlesham Forest; folklore, paranormal, otherworldly? Up for debate, but fertile ground for a new investigative podcast, that’s for sure. One question still lingers, will our host be re-joined by his roaming researcher, Kennedy Fisher?The duo’s last update patched together frantic updates from Baghdad, as they pursued suspected occultists in The Case of Charles Dexter Ward. Very little hope lingered of solving the mystery, and maybe even less that Kennedy would return home safe… But for now, a new investigation calls.
Following the success of The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, Radio 4 commissions a return to this HP Lovecraft-inspired universe. Once again, the podcast embraces Lovecraft’s crypt of horror, braving the Sci-Fi stylings of The Whisperer in Darkness.Episode OneHenry Akeley, an ex-student from Dr Eleanor Peck’s folklore and witchcraft course, has gone missing, and Heawood and Kennedy decide whether or not to investigate. But first, there are threads to tie up from their last mystery podcast 'The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward.'

oh man its really hard to keep track of all of these name drops. All these the guy A had a friend whose cousin's stepdad was working in the same company where the girl's B babysitter's grandmother used to work. IT IS ALL CONNECTED, insert pepe silva meme...
why is episode 1 not showing up?
this series was so, so disappointing. terrible final episode and well below the standard of all the previous series, I really hope this is just a one off aberration and not the podcast going downhill
Just listened to seasons 1 to 3, again. I do hope that season 5, which I assume is going to be The Call of Cathulhu, is more of the same.
this episode do not work.

so glad Matt is back
wow. this series has been great for years. and NOW you decide to start getting political?
Absolutely incredible series, done season 4 in one hit and gone back to relisten to the first three again. Hopefully we see season 5 soon!
It's good to hear your back, guys. Program really enjoyable.
Hmm. Okay I guess, but not remotely on par with the previous series, sadly.
I'm looking forward to binging this..
amazing, can't wait to listen to this
And out of the blue Kennedy Fisher resurfaces and the goosebumps reappear lol!
I only restarted listening to them yesterday and they're releasing a new series. Superb, perfect timing
“You’re a dick.” “You’re a dick.”
As someone who used to live in the Newburyport area, I can confirm that this updated version of Innsmouth is both hysterically accurate and basically pronounced right, which is damn near unique.
you need to get on to Julian Simpson's other show "who is Aldrich Kemp" for some nice surprises ;)
no season 3?
Am I the only one who found this episode a little disappointing. Feels like an anti climax after such a good series
