CASTING! "Corroded Abode" - Horror Series
Project Overview
The Ocean. A place where, for centuries, sailors traversed from one part of the world to another in search of trade or conquest. A stretch of the unknown throughout the reigns of kings and queens whose political powers depended on ocean supremacy. An unpredictable place that forms a whole world by itself, both tranquil and unforgiving as the creatures that dwell beneath the depths. These are places where the ocean does not welcome free-spirited sailors. Tales tell of a region with blackened waters as cold as the abyss, where any ship that tries to sail through it is swallowed by its darkness, never to be seen again. Few survive their horrid encounters within the region, but all survivors say the same thing: Below the ocean, still linger the entrapped souls who inhabit the graveyard of hollow ships, surrounded in shadow. Many call this horrifying place: THE CORRODED ABODE.
The Corroded Abode is a horror series made for the Break Society/Fantasmagorian Podcast as an Audio Drama.
The story follows a crew of unique individuals trapped on a submarine in the dark depths of the ocean. Their research turns in to horror when they come across something that is not meant to be at the bottom of the ocean floor.
What will happen to these brave individuals? What horror will they see?

We’re gonna visit a literal cloud of death. What could possibly go wrong?
I’d bet money on plumbing. That’s going to be fun to clean up this far down.

It’s not a *death cloud* it’s more of a *mystery cloud.* We’re here to investigate the polluted region and its impact on the benthic levels in that area.
Oh, there’s Tad! He’s waving at us.
You know what else happens to us? We lose fluid and get dehydrated when we throw up. Now drink and pull yourself together. We’re here and it’s all hands-on deck.

It’s natural to be afraid of the unknown. Fear keeps us alive…
What could be inhabiting this cloud?

Ah… Dr. Carter. Here to observe our current trajectory?
Brace yourselves!

Now I gotta scrub all these damned pots again.
Damn it! My stomach loses again.

aye, Captain!
