The Sulphuric Secrets

Between Two Worlds

Barely clinging to life, a flayed man lies in a copper basement beneath a cornfield of a forgotten country in the 1850s. Why? From this weird and disturbing mystery begins the story of The Sulphuric Secrets, which spans the globe, and hundreds of years. New audio episodes available Mondays on Anchor. New video episodes available Wednesdays on YouTube. This fictitious story entwines the unimaginable with historical events, which will delight occult and horror aficionados alike.

    The Sulphuric Secrets: Season 2 Kickstarter Campaign

    As the production of Season 2 rapidly approaches, I need your help to make it as incredible as it can be, with a Halloween Kickstarter Campaign!

    Now, the 3-year journey is nearly complete. 

    33 episodes. 330,000+ words. 45+ hours of content.

    I just need your help to take it to the next-level.

    Now on the threshold of release, I need your help to take this project beyond the limits of our imagination.


    CAMPAIGN GOAL 1: Voice Acting

    Now, after a 3-year journey, the current draft of The Sulphuric Secrets Season 2 sits at nearly 4,000 lines of dialogue across more than 150 characters. This would bring life to familiar characters from the 1st season, as well as a long list of new inductees (both fictional, and fictionalised versions of their real-life counterparts).

    To do their stories justice, this requires professional voice actors. The sort of voice actors who would take my hundreds of pages of unneccessarily-complex research, notes and redthreading and treat it as the most-extraordinary background information to prepare for their role. 

    With your help, I envision a diverse cast to bring nuance and pathos to the conflicts, desires and terror of these characters.


    CAMPAIGN GOAL 2: Music and Soundscaping:

    For the right musician, this is a career-defining dream project. The Sulphuric Secrets isn't just a horror, but a Tintin-esque kaleidoscope of all the most-fantastical, irreplicable confluences of time and place. 1950s Morocco and Papua New Guinea, 1900s Khorassan, 1960s Havana and London, pre-20th century Manchuria, 1930s Southern America... the list goes on and on. I salivate at the thought of a rich soundscape that pays aural homage to these forgotten times, these rich cultures... and lament my inability to do it justice by myself.


    There are some truly incredible Rewards available, such as glossy research files of Season 2 research, personalised and signed novels, as well as plenty of Rewards that YOU design - all with personalisation and the spookiness of the Halloween season kept in-mind.


    So, head HERE to show your support, and Happy Halloween!

    (SEASON FINALE) The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 13: "Cicada (Pt.II)"

    It's all come to this.

    Across multiple centuries.

    Across Europe, The Middle East, The Caribbean, Africa, North America, and South-East Asia.

    Once a seed is planted, it can start a cycle of re-germination that's impossible to stop.

    We begin with a single thread - the infamous online mystery of "Cicada 3301" (one of the most enduring, hotly-debated and unbelievable unsolved mysteries in modern history) and the real-life treasure hunt that took place behind it. But, pull on the string further, and well... for those that thought this season of The Sulphuric Secrets couldn't get more bizarre and insane, take a second to mentally prepare yourself for this epic two-part conclusion to Season 1.

    The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 12: A Conversation Over Coffee

    It's the penultimate episode of Season 1. 

    In the background, across time and the whole globe, powerful people have been playing chess, and it was inevitable that pieces would meet on the battlefield at some point. 300 years of history, blood, warfare, magic and mystery has lead to a single conversation over coffee. 

    Both Yin and Yang on the chessboard are forced to reveal their pieces as the threads for each previous episode tie together.

    The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 11: The Secret History

    The promise has been kept - here lies an explanation of who The Flayed Man is, and how the gruesome event came to be. 

    Political assassinations, voodoo, slavery, King Solomon and the demons of the Goetia. An epic story spanning 70 years across the Caribbean, Middle-East and Eastern Europe as a man who escaped slavery dedicates his life to revenge against a man history would call the Anti-Christ...

    ...Napoleon Bonaparte. 

    Along the way he battles demons - both his own, and those from another world. As Season 1 approaches its end, we go back to the start, mixing fact, fiction all culminating in a mind-blowing twist.

    The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 10: The Unholy Wood

    We return to Los Angeles in the late 1940s - a period of time that's remembered as a conservative, restrictive era of parochial values. But - in Jack Parsons' world of sex, rockets and the occult, he brings Madame Lumen into a personal world that relives the glory days of The Golden Age of Hollywood, and lays the groundwork for the cultural revolution of the 1960s. 

    But, at the exact same time, and exact same place, something unimaginable has happened. A crime so repulsive and unexplained it shook the normally unflappable city of Los Angeles to its core. How does The Black Dahlia unite with other seemingly unconnected events and the broader Sulphuric Secrets story? You'll have to listen to find out.

    The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 9: Black Powder and White Powder

    The most epic and ambitious episode yet in terms of scope, today we tell a tale of corruption, conspiracy, magic, the occult and Hollywood to rival classics like "LA Confidential". 

    The rise and fall of the Hollywood Studio system was only across the road from, and occurring at the same time as Jack Parsons was heralding the beginning of rocket science. Two subjects that seem to have nothing in common. But like the true meaning of the word 'occult' - their connection is "hidden from view". 

    "Black Powder and White Powder" unites the Yin and Yang of this great city, during this unbelievable time. Expect the usual cast of sinister characters as fact and fiction are mixed to uncover this huge Sulphuric Secret - the magical history of Los Angeles from the 1900s - 1940s.

    The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 8: Heaven's Gate Pt. II

    Once again tying together truth and fiction, the conclusion to this two-parter on Heaven's Gate continues the overarching storyline of The Sulphuric Secrets Season 1, while also pointing-out a disturbing inconsistency in the real-life cult's narrative. 

    Although this series is a work of fiction, viewers who are fans of the true crime genre will appreciate some surprising, and unsettling discoveries made about the (already unsettling) Heaven's Gate cult, expanded upon in the episode.

    The Sulphuric Secrets Episode 7: Heaven's Gate

    It's the crime that shocked America, and brought a dark ending to the second millennium - the first of a two-parter combines a true crime perspective of the internet age cult as truth and fiction in this episode are in competition to be stranger than the other. 

    For true crime lovers, this episode on "Heaven's Gate" is a must-listen, as the history of the cult's development, the bizarre background of its leaders, Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Lou Nettles and the final, tragic circumstances that lead to the death of 39 are all covered.
