I’m working on a Magnus Archives inspired scripted fiction horror podcast that runs with the idea that the “mystical POC” often relegated to side characters or exposition tools in horror media are the protagonists.
The main character is a Filipina who recently moved to Toronto and accidentally gets involved with helping two detectives solve supernatural cases because she stops a woman in her apartment building from getting killed by a supernatural entity
And her whole thing is that she was basically raised in a babaylan or shaman family in the Philippines and just kinda knows how to deal with this shit
And the conceit of the podcast is that everything you hear is recorded audio or phone calls, mainly that of her calling her Nanay or mother about her experiences saving people from the supernatural.
It’s called Hi Nay and I’m aiming for a Halloween release for the first few episodes 😊 I’m pretty excited! I wonder if people over here might be interested in it when it comes. A POC led horror podcast title with LGBTQ+ characters, which is par for the course for me, hehe.
Currently we’re raising funds for act 3 because if we don’t get to $4550 we can’t release it 😭 Act 1 and 2 are free to listen to right now, so check it out if you like it, and consider giving us some love by contributing to our IGG campaign or spreading this around!
HELP US GET TO OUR MAIN GOAL ($4550) SO WE CAN RELEASE THIS PODCAST IN 2023!!!! ❤️
For the sake of our team we’re NOT releasing Hi Nay in 2023 until we hit our main goal of $4550. If we don’t hit it, Hi Nay won’t have new episodes until 2024.
We’re making good progress but still a ways away. Please contribute if you can! 💕🥺🥹
