Travel by sea to a creepy town in Aaron Mahnke’s ’13 Days of Halloween’
Season two of Aaron Mahnke’s “13 Days of Halloween” drops this October and takes listeners to a spooky, New England seaside town called Direbrook. When a stranger washes up on shore with little memory of how she wound up in the water, the townsfolk rally to find out about her past. The stranger is quickly absorbed by the town and realizes Direbrook is troubled, and terror unfolds as she wonders if she can ever leave.
“13 Days of Halloween” is a horror story at its core. The show’s creator, Aaron, is known for his engaging storytelling and innovative work on additional shows including “Lore” and “Cabinet of Curiosities.”
In this series, we’ll walk down cobblestone streets to be greeted with stares, hear about Direbrook’s history and its founder, and encounter unfriendly neighbors. Listeners will attend town meetings with the mayor and find out why new residents are a rarity, and how old residents plant themselves in Direbrook for life. There’s a disturbing story as to why residents should not wander off by themselves. And we hear how Direbrook’s residents arrived years ago by sea. Watch out for the marshes!
