About From Shallow Graves
From Shallow Graves is a horror fiction podcast set in the dark, sprawling world of Dolvane. Every episode is a new tale—sometimes ghost story, sometimes monster myth, always unsettling. This is where horror meets the hearts of the flawed—where broken people face broken things, and not all of them survive. If you crave gritty, immersive worldbuilding, disturbing lore, and stories that drag you by the gut and don’t let go, you’ve found your new favorite show. Written and narrated by Red, and told through the voice of a mysterious collector of stories known only as Shallow. Listener discretion advised. © 2025 Smug Rust Studios. All rights reserved. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.

The Wanting Well
There’s a man out there in the desert. Cracked lips, dry tongue, eyes like dust. He says all he wants is a drop of water… but we both know it’s never just water. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025.

Saint Elmo
Beneath the black waters off Gallaway Bay lies the wreck of the Saint Elmo—a cargo ship swallowed whole by the deep. When diver Marcus descends to salvage its riches, he finds more than treasure waiting for him. Among the drowned crew and shattered crates lies something older… something alive. As his air runs thin and the pressure closes in, Marcus learns the ocean doesn’t give up its secrets for free. A tale of isolation, curiosity, and the unknowable depths below. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

The Small World
Simon has spent the last ten years in a hospital bed, unable to move or speak—his world no larger than the space between the door and the window across from him. When a cruel nurse gives him an experimental injection meant to “bring him closer to the Pattern,” Simon’s long quiet life collapses into darkness. What follows is a descent into the infinite, where horrors whisper in the dark and a spider offers him a terrible bargain: accept, and walk again. But acceptance comes at a cost—and some worlds are small for a reason. A tale of confinement, madness, and the thin line between faith and fear. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved.

Hollow Mound
In a quiet farming community nestled near a haunted hill, the children are given names. So are the pigs. And when the time comes, some of those names are crossed out. Every winter, the draw is held. Sixteen families. Sixteen straws. One red. It’s not just tradition—it’s survival. For nearly a century, the people of Hollow Mound have kept their silent bargain with the beasts beneath the earth. But this year, something is different. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

Enamel
Annika Truski was once known for sculpting beauty—perfect faces, soft smiles, art that looked too smooth to be human. But beauty is a lie. And pain? Pain tells the truth. After a dental procedure gone wrong, Annika discovers a disturbing new muse—her own agony. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

Isha
Isha has made peace with her death. Her body is failing, her time is short, and she only hopes to go quietly in the arms of those she loves. But when a familiar shadow steps through her home one final time, Isha is faced with a terrifying truth: death might not be the end. And some spirits don’t knock before entering. A Southern Gothic tale of tradition, grief, and the dangerous rituals we don’t realize we’ve inherited. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

What Comes For The Lonely
Gulliver Pratt wasn’t born wicked—just unlucky. Cursed, his mama said. Marked by the blood moon and followed by misfortune ever since. Alone and hollowed by years of grief, Gully finds comfort in the arms of a stranger passing through Ponderosa. But some comforts come at a price. And some touches take more than they give. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

The Violet Veil Hotel
Welcome to the Violet Veil Hotel — a grand Victorian lodge tucked deep in the Sheerlight forests, where appearances are polished to perfection and every wall hides a secret. When Mr. Tusk invites a trio of ghost hunters to cleanse his haunted halls, he expects a spectacle to restore his reputation. Instead, he finds himself tangled in a game of cons, visions, and hidden horrors. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

The Climb and The Campfire
Before empires, before prayers, before the world had names—there were two boys and a tree that never stopped growing. This is the origin of Naaru and Muro, the Twin Aspects of the World Tree. One chose to climb forever, chasing the branches into the stars. The other chose to stay, to tend the fire and gather others close. Together, they became gods—and opposites. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025. All rights reserved. Do not copy or distribute without permission.

The Voss Things
In the hills west of Rivenloch lies a rusted steel door with no hinges and no handle. Behind it is the remains of a Pillars-run experiment — the Voss Adaptation Study — where scientists tried to clone a man who could walk the Pattern without losing his mind. © Smug Rust Studios, 2025.

Rotwork Part IV
Rotwork: Part 4 – “The Maw Underfoot” Horace crossed the wall. Ate a hot meal. Slept under stars for the first time in years. For a moment, Horace Blithe believed he might outrun the rot. But peace is a cruel trick. Haunted by memory and burdened by a promise he couldn’t keep, Horace returns to the city—not to reclaim what was lost, but to bury it. To let go. To finally be free.

Rotwork Part III
Rotwork: Part 3 – “The Chalk Widow” His home overrun. His blood on the floor. And something ancient whispering through the walls. Horace Blithe flees the filth of Cherry Hill and crosses the wall into open land—for a breath of clean air… and one last hope. He seeks out the Chalk Widow, an old woman with bones for wind chimes and too many eyes in her head. She knows what haunts him. Knows the name of the thing that’s found him. Knows that hunger like this doesn’t just pass—it follows. In the rot beneath the city, something is waking. Something older than death. And Horace has been feeding it.
