Welcome to the Shadows is a supernatural anthology podcast that exists in the space between heartbeats, in the pause before sleep takes you.
Hosted by the mysterious Keeper each episode tells the story of someone who died with their truth unheard, their ending unexplained, their final moments unobserved.
This is not a library of books. It is a collection of residue. The last words never spoken. The confessions that died on tongues. The secrets that dissolved into silence.
Each story can only be told once. When the Keeper speaks it aloud, it dissolves, returning to the void it came from. But for that brief moment, you bear witness. And in your listening, the dead exist again.
One last time.
Welcome to the Shadows is a fiction podcast for those who linger in doorways, who notice when the light changes, who hear whispers in static. It's for anyone who has ever wondered: what happens to the stories no one was there to hear
Beginning February 2026 episodes will be posted every other week.
You've been awake for three days.
Not because you want to be.
Because you saw what's waiting for you when you close your eyes.
It's in the corner of your bedroom. It's been patient. It's been watching.
And now it knows you can see it too.

Podcast Description
Welcome to the Shadows is a supernatural anthology podcast that exists in the space between heartbeats, in the pause before sleep takes you.

Each story can only be told once. When the Keeper speaks it aloud, it dissolves—returns to the void it came from. But for that brief moment, you bear witness. And in your listening, the dead exist again.
