Into The Strange is an original scripted audio series inspired by the eerie tone of The Twilight Zone and Black Mirror. Each episode explores unsettling tales of the uncanny, the forgotten, and the unreal, blending retro sci-fi, psychological horror, and poetic storytelling.
In the golden age of radio and quiet desperation, a forgotten housewife discovers a mysterious serum promising transformation. What begins as a simple desire to feel beautiful again becomes a journey through memory, identity, and the seductive danger of being seen. But every gift has its price, and some memories are not your own. "Artificial Possession" is a haunting tale of longing and legacy, where the past refuses to stay buried, and borrowed beauty might come with a soul attached.

Once a vibrant homecoming queen and secret poet, Clara is now a quiet, unfulfilled 1950s housewife desperate to reclaim her youth, vitality, and identity. Her longing for significance leads her to Prometheon No. 9, a tonic that awakens both her confidence and something... other.
Nostalgic, emotionally fragile, inwardly rebellious, ultimately tragic.
Sometimes I stare at that old photo and wonder if she ever really existed... or if I made her up to survive.
It’s not vanity, Richard. It’s... preservation.
The mysterious, seductive presence that emerges within Clara after she begins using the Prometheon Serum. Lydia is a fully formed consciousness, confident, assertive, and willing to do whatever it takes to survive and be seen again.
Possessive, manipulative, dangerous, seductive
You think I’m a parasite? Darling, I am liberation wrapped in silk.
Poor Clara. She begged to be seen. I merely obliged.
Clara’s devoted but increasingly concerned husband. Traditional, pragmatic, and loving.
Loyal, rational, emotionally repressed, ultimately a victim of the transformation.
We were happy, weren’t we? Before... all this
You’re talking to yourself in the mirror again. It’s scaring me.
I don’t care about the wrinkles, the years. I just want the woman I married.
A sharply dressed, enigmatic man who acts as the liaison for the Prometheon Society. He arrives to “address concerns” but is more akin to a dealer or emissary for something ancient and powerful.
Polished, eerily calm, persuasive, and ambiguous in morality.
Our clients don’t regret their choices. Only their hesitation.
We offer potential, Mrs. Winslow. Not miracles. Those are for the weak of will.
Each dose opens a door. Whether you walk through or someone else does... is entirely up to you.
A fading Hollywood starlet, once glamorous and beloved, now struggling with obscurity and the passing of time.
Elegant, proud, vulnerable, teetering on the edge of reinvention or ruin.
They used to scream my name. Now I can barely remember it.
Another chance, just one spark of that old magic that’s all I’ve ever wanted.
People don’t want the truth, darling. They want to be dazzled.
Ha! So that’s what you sound like, Clara. What happened? You take a sugar pill?
That’s great news; who knew you had moxy? I’ll get that to you folks in just a minute.
