My Father's Files
A storytelling podcast full of horror and mystery
My Father’s Files is our newest endeavor, and a collaboration with two very talented creators. They’ve created a fantastical and horror-inspired world of mystery and intrigue.
About the Podcast:
When Vera’s estranged father died, she thought she could finally move on. A year later, however, a mysterious package filled with creepy, cryptic stories shows up at her doorstep–all in her father’s unique script. As much as Vera wants to ignore them, her roommate Ash is fascinated and insists they dig deeper. He soon discovers that the stories are rooted in truth but validation turns to fear as the horrors start to bleed out from the pages into their own lives. As they enlist the help of a local paranormal investigator, the danger only intensifies.
Shadows that shouldn’t be there, windless whistles and threats written in bathroom mirrors… it all points to a haunting. Ghosts, however, don’t explain the mysterious figures that have been following them everywhere they go.
As reality shifts around Vera and her friends, all they know is this: if there’s a way out, the answer lies in her father’s files.

Oral Storytelling
The strength of different perspectives
We are not invisible. Nor will we remain silent.
This project has been in the making for a number of years. A culmination of passion for social change and a love of oral storytelling have pulled our creators together to give a voice to the outcasts, the misrepresented, and the marginalized.
More details will be released as we begin planning and coordinating this endeavor. If you are interested in learning more or collaborating on a topic, please reach out and let us know.
