Synopsis:
In 1965, Mimi is running from her past, seeking refuge in the small, isolated town of Batternton. But what she finds is far more terrifying than anything she could have imagined. The town’s residents follow strict rules to survive the Lovecraftian horrors that crawl out of the Black Woods every night. James Batternton, the town's namesake, was found centuries earlier with his arms severed and feet worn to the bone—his mysterious death a grim reminder of the town’s dark history. Now, amidst the backdrop of the Civil Rights Movement, outside forces threaten to disrupt the fragile peace that these rules maintain.
Will Mimi follow the rules and protect herself from the horrors that lurk in the woods, or will the temptation to break them—and the darkness within—overwhelm her? With dangers both human and supernatural closing in, she must decide whether to stand on her own or fall to the terror that claimed the town’s namesake so long ago.
Batternton is a narrative horror fiction podcast, blending historical tension with supernatural dread, where isolation becomes both protection and a curse. Listen now to uncover the secrets hidden in the shadows of Batternton.
