Wormwood: A Serialized Mystery
When a strange vision of a drowned woman sends him to a small town to investigate, Doctor Xander Crowe quickly discovers that Wormwood is no ordinary place. Secrets lurk within every resident, from the innkeeper to the town librarian to the waitress at the diner. The seemingly idyllic surface hides a mystery unlike anything he’s ever experienced. Navigating through this tiny, isolated town in the foothills of Northern California, Crowe finds himself drawn into a web of strange conspiracies, weird romance, and arcane mysticism. As Crowe begins to unravel the mystery at the heart of Wormwood, he finds that his very presence there may not be a coincidence at all…

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT WORMWOOD
“Wormwood is a darkly delicious throwback to classic radio theater that’s as clever as it is creepy – about as much fun as you can have online without alerting some sort of watch group.”
Andrew Cosby, Co-Creator of Eureka
“… a tasty vacation spot… if you like eating human flesh, that is.”
Scott Sigler, author of Ancestor and Nocturnal
“Xander Crowe is a glorious mixture of Basil Fawlty and Aleister Crowley. The pacing is tight. The dialogue is sharp…”
Jack J. Ward, The Sonic Society
“Wormwood is a wonderful commitment to audio entertainment on the web. Doctor Xander Crowe is a great creation, and I hope many adventures lie ahead of him.
Tad Stones, Hellboy Animated: Blood and Iron
“After listening to the first episode I call it AWESOME. How did this terrific sounding show manage to fly under nearly everyone’s collective radar for so long?… Its an interesting premise, but its the snappy dialogue and the confident storytelling that I like. Take one part Twin Peaks, add one part mystery, one part supernatural, then drench in Absinthe, shake the mix vigorously. Voila, Wormwood.”
Jesse Willis, SFF Audio
“Wormwood should be the next stop on the XML dial for audio mystery enthusiasts.”
Fred Greenhalgh, Radio Drama Revival
